those who are without it or not likely
to get it. Americanization of foreign
ers, the equalization of educational
opportunities within states, the pro-
motion of health teaching and recrea-
ton and the improvement of facilities
for the preparation OF teachers are
some of the ways in which it is in
tended to use the money for the elm
nation of illiteracy.
1t is not to be regarded as a move
ment which is expected to make the
poor states poorer or mora dependent
but on the contrary to give them aid
in lettering their condition and in
spring them to greater effort in tha'
direction. Such encouragement has
done magnificent work in other di-
rections and certainly when it comes
to decreasing illiteracy it cannot fat
to be recognized that there is much
work to be done.

EIGHTING ILLITERACY.

All that it is necessary to point out
is the large number of illiterates in
this country in order to make a
convincing argument as TO the nee
cssity Of devoting increased attention
10 this problem. Secretary Lane did
this in his recent report and urged the
devotion of serious thought to the
task Of overcoming the discreditable
situation. There is need for work
among not only the children Blu;
among their elders when it is realized
how extensively it prevails among
those of draft age.
In this connection interest is being
aroused by the National Educational
association in a bill WHICH is now be-
fore congress calling for the appro-
priation of 100000. 900 for division
among the states with the understand
ing that a like amount must be pro
vlded by the respective common
wealths. 1t is thus in keeping with
the method advanced for highway
Improvement, it being held that the
country has deep interest in extend
ing better educational facilities to su

GUARDING THE HEALTH.

Protests are being made in some
cities against the practice which is
resorted to for one reason or another
of packing the trolley cars with pat
rons and keeping the ventilating
iransoms tightly closed This IS a
bad practice at all times but particu-
larly so during comparatively mild
weather and at a time when there is
so much sickness Of communicable
character about.
Non ventilated street cars ought not
to be demanded. People who ride are
or should be dressed fo- the street
and therefore in shape to guard
against any danger from proper VEN
tilation. Poorly ventilated cars es-
pecially if they are filled, are depress-
ing and unhealthy. and it is certainly
preferable that there should be a suf-
ficient amount of fresh air for those
who ride as well as those who walk.
This is of course one of the important
requirements of a sick room, and the
well should not want to disregard pre-
Ventive measures
In this respect it is but proper to
call attention to the advice which is
given in another column by the local
health officer to the responsibility
which rests upon the individual in
keeping the health conditions of the
city what they should be, and in view
of the return of influenza cases in
many other places in large numbers
it is advice which should be needed
when he urges the people TO refrain
rom visiting in other cities until the
danger from this disease has subsidized
There are many who are obliged tc
go from one city TO another but there
are a great many others who can with
cut any great sacrifice stay at home
where health conditions at present
are satisfactory and by so doing be
of inestimable help in keeping then
so. It is far better to be safe than t.
take chances and be sorry.
