The deferring of improving Garfield
park is just another illustration Of our
city commissioners lack of interest in
North Topeka improvements.
1t is to be regretted that a city of
Topeka's size cannot furnish a budget
sufficiently large to take care of the
South side parks without calling into
action the assistance of the only self
supporting park in Topeka; and espe-
cially when Garfield park is so badly
in need of improvements.
This is not the only instance of
lacking interest. For sixteen years
large holes have been dotting North
Topeka here and there. Why has the
dirt from the North side streets been
hauled TO South Topeka instead of be-
ing used to efface these flood marks?
1t is about time for North Topeka
citizens to awaken and put a repre-
sentative in the city commission who
will take n real interest in making
North Topeka the beautiful place it
was formerly

FIND UPAS TREE VALUABLE
Natives Of Java Procure Ready-Mad
Clothing From Its Branches,
With Little Effort.

One Of the strangest myths is that
which concerns the deadly upas tree"
Of Java, whose poisonous Civilizations
were formerly alleged to kill any man
or animal that ventured into Its neigh
borhood.
Doubtless It had Its origin In some
travellers tale, for the tree In ques-
tion-rather widely distributed in
southern and southeastern Asa-has
no terrors for the natives Of these
countries, who, on the contrary. nnd
1t extremely useful.
1t is the only kind Of tree In the
world that produces ready-made cloth
ing. The inner bark is a natural cloth,
only requiring the removal Of the soft
cellular stuff in order to render It avail
able for use. A cylindrical section Of
1t from q small branch will furnish
leg for a pair Of trousers or an arm
for coat, while from a bigger branch
the body of the garment Is obtained.

bureau of education's health contest
aims to reach these children.
Health. strength, joy" is the motto
OF the division, and its methods are
all directed toward making health edu-
cation real fun. Health charts which
children fill In for themselves, showing
their weight and height and how much
each Of them gains, are sent by the
division to all schools and teachers
which ask for them. Brightly colored
pamphlets for teachers and children,
and personal letters, give advice about
health problems. And best and latest
Of all, Cho-C ho, real circus clown, has
been employed to make amusing and
helpful talks on what child should
eat, wear and do to be strong and well.
1t is fact that at least IS per cent
of our children today are suffering
from malnutrition, resulting not so
much from eating too little as from
eating and drinking the wrong kind of
food. All sorts Of methods have been
tried, with very little success, to rem
edy this condition. to induce the par
ents to provide and the children to eat
the foods that will nourish and give
them strength. Cho-Cho and n pair of

ton that will go very long way to-

The monthly weighing Is most i'm
portant factor in this work. Johnny

to the instructions given by Cho-Cho
for four long weeks, step onto the
scales with their eyes shining and their
hearts pounding with excitement If
they have gained more than the de-
sired half a pound. their cup of JOY is
brimming over and if, on the other
hand, they are not quite up to the
mark, their guilty consclences remind
them of the coffee which they have
drunk or of the baths which they neg
lected to take. or the green vegetables
which they refused to eat, and they
realize that Cho-Cho was right-one

MAMMOTH CAVE LONG FAMOUS
Has Been Acknowledged One Of the
Worlds Wonders, Practically
since the Year 1909.

The most famous cavern In America
Is Mammoth cave. in Kentucky. writes
"Niksah" In the Chicago Daily News.
Mammoth cave was an old Indian ref
uge, and the story Of redskin adven-
lures is written plain In the skeletons,
tomahawks and reed torches that have
been found in the cavern depths.
Then, in 1909, white man. pioneer
hunter. followed a wounded bear into
the mouth OF the great cave, and from
that time on Mammoth cave became
in American estimation the eighth
wonder of the world.
Almost as soon as the white man
discovered the cavern he began to
make practical use Of it. Long before
the era Of Indian possession bats had
Inhabited the cavern halls and in the
course of time their skeletons had ac-
cumulated on the floor, especially
near the entrance. These skeletons,
containing nitrate, played an impor-
tant part in the war of 1872. for
nitrate, so needed for making explo-
sives, was scarce in the colonies and
the Mammoth cave became the main
source Of supply.
When the country settled down to
a period of comfortable prosperity,
Mammoth cave became, even more
than 1t is today. great show place
Of America. The caves history Is told
In the names of the various rooms and
galleries. Jenny Lind and other artists
visited the cave and sang or played
the airs that had made them famous
In "Ole Bulls Concert Hall" or other
cavern corridors. In 4 room since
named Booths Amphitheater." Edwin
Booth. was inspired to declaim some
of the lines Of Hamlet before small
and select audience.
