WHEN is A BOY WEALTHY?

N1f HEN Vinson Walsh Nc
" Lean, IL year old son of
E. B. Mclean, publisher
of Washington, d. c., was run
down and killed by an auto on
Monday the press reports
classed him as one of the
"wealthiest children" in the
country because he was the
heir to the large estates of ].
r. Mclean and Thomas F.

But does being heir to a
great fortune make a boy
rich? Is such good fortune
equal to the good fortune of
splendid health and a whole
some ambition spurred by the
necessity of doing something
for himself when he grows up?
Did the Mclean boy have as
much fun as other boys Che had
an attendant always with him

money, had he lived to get it,

President Wilson advises
that the war time prohibition
measure be removed insofar as
it applies to light wines and
beer. 1t sounds like he has
been impressed by the walls of |
anguish going up from New

Had the president lived in the
advanced west he would un-
derstand prohibition better and
would not take the mourners
seriously.

"IT SHALL BE DOME"

1T shall be done!" a country said,
And swept a little land with dread;
The martyred slain she brushed aside;
Remorseless, trod on joy and pride!
Crushed honor, broken in the dust.
Betrayed her every word and trust!
Then sneering said, when speaks the
Hun,
This thing to dot shall be done!"
1T shall be done!" A nation spoke,
East, West and North and South awoke!
That oath has rung across the sea!
That vow is pledged to Liberty!
And soldiers, wearied with the strife,
Have heard the word and take new life!
The whole world counts each setting
sun,
For we have said, "1t shall be done!"
1T shall be done!" We say today,
And watch our soldiers march away!
With quivering lip. but kindling eye
We send our loved ones out to die!
It shall be done, but not as he
Had visions Of the victory!
On s~wift-wingtd feet the word shall run,
"The day Is ours! It has been done!!"

HAD LEARNED HIS LESSON
Mr.: spllIman Evidently Quite satis-
fled That Matrimonial Adventure
Meant Joint Partnership.

Mr. Spillman had just married for
the second time. On the day after the
wedding he remarked to his wife:
II intend, my dear, to enlarge my
dairy"
"You mean our dairy" replied Mrs.
Spillman.
NO." quoth Mr.. spillman, II intend
to enlarge my dairy"
"Say u dairy, Henry"
mo, my daryl"
"Say II dairy, say our" she
screamed, selling the poker.
"My dairy! my daryl" yelled the
husband.
sour dairy! Our daryl" screeched
the wife, emphasizing each word by
a blow on the back Of her cringing
spouse.
Mr.. Spillman retreated under the
bed. In passing under the bed
clothes his hat was brushed off.
He remained under the covers sev-
eral minutes, waiting for a lull in the
storm. At last his wife saw him
thrusting his head out at the foot of
the bed, much like a turtle from it's
shell.
"What are you looking for?" she
exclaimed.
II am looking for our hat, my dearl"
said he.

Suitable Clothing Important.

"Still another factor in the produc-
ton Of colds, pneumonia and other re.
%spiratory diseases is carelessness or ig-
norance of the people regarding suit
able clothing during the seasons when
the weather suddenly changes, sitting
in warm rooms too heavily dressed or,
what is even more common, especially
among women, dressing so lightly that
windows are kept closed in order to be
comfortably warm. This is a very in
furious practice.

II believe we could easily save one
hundred thousand lives annually in
the United States if all the people
would adopt the system of fresh air
living followed, for example, in tuber-

mysterious about it-no specific medl-
cine, no vaccine. The important thing
is right living, good food and plenty Of
fresh air.

Droplet Infection Explained In Pictures.

"The Bureau Of Public Health,
Treasury Department, has just issued
a striking poster drawn by Bergman,
the well-known Washington %cartoonist.
The poster exemplifes the modern
method of health education. A few
years ago, under similar circumstances,
the health authorities would have is
sued an official dry but scientifically
accurate bulletin teaching the role of
droplet infection in the spread Of re-
spiratory diseases. The only ones who
would have understood the bulletin
would have been those who already
knew all about the subject. The man
in the street, the plain citizen and the
many millions who toll for their living
would have had no time and no desire
to wade through the technical phrase
ology."

Washington, D. C.-With the subsid-
ence of the epidemic Of influenza the
attention of health officers Is directed
to pneumonia, bronchitis and other
diseases Of the respiratory system
which regularly q large number
Of deaths, especially during the winter
season. According to Rupert Blue,
Surgeon General Of the United States
Public Health Service, these diseases
will be especially prevalent this VIM
ter unless the people are particularly
careful to obey health Instructions.
"The present epidemic" said Sur
geon General Blue, "has taught by bit
ter experience how readily a condition
beginning apparently az a slight cold
ma go on to pneumonia and death.
Although the worst Of the epidemic is
over, there will continue to he a large
number Of scattered eases, many of
them mild and unrecognized, which
will be danger spots to be guarded
against" The Surgeon General likened
the present situation to that after a
great fire, saying, mo fire chief who
understands his business stops playing
the hose on the charred debris as soon
as the flames and visible fire have dis
appeared. On the contrary, he con-
tinues the water for hours and even
days, for he knows that there is dan
ger Of the fire rekindling from smol-
dering embers."
"Then you fear another outbreak of
Influenza" he was asked. mot neces.
sarily another large epidemic" said
the Surgeon General, "but unless the
people learn to realize the seriousness
Of the danger they will be compelled to
pay a heavy death toll from pneumo-
MIA and other respiratory diseases.
Common Colds Highly Catching,
ut is encouraging to observe that
people arc beginning to learn that or
binary coughs and colds are highly
catching and are spread from person
to person by means of droplets Of
germ laden mucus. Such droplets are
sprayed into the air when careless or
ignorant people cough or sneeze with
out covering their mouth and nose. It
is also good to know that people have
learned something about the value Of
fresh air. In summer. when people
are largely out of doors, the respira-
tory diseases Coughs, colds, pneumo-
mia, etc.) are infrequent; in the fall,
AS people begin to remain indoors, the
respiratory diseases increase; in the
winter, when people are prone to stay
in badly ventilated, overkeated rooms,
the respiratory diseases become very
prevalent.

ENGLISH ARE EDWARDS.

In a letter to friend here one
of our soldier boys tells of the

and says in part:
"Read circled his plane around the
harbor and city and sent greetings
to us all by wireless telephony as
follows: Greetings to you all
Sorry can not stop He was certain
ly confident of having no mishaps,
for he came low down over us so
that we could see all in the machine.
Gee, but Pm glad that he has
finally made the trip, and the
Englishman didn't beat him-not
that / don't feel bit sorry for the
'Limey' for he had tough luck, but
all we could hear in England was
that Hawker had landed and beat
the American. One paper even came
out to that effect with big headlines.
I hate to have those folks get any
thing on us. It's quite a bit of fun
for anyone pugnaciously inclined to
go ashore in England, for we have
scrap every time we go ashore,
that is, provided the 'Limeys' out
number us. They are the biggest
bunch of towards you ever saw and
God help you if they get you down,
for they'll kick your face off if
they can. Don't tell me ever again
about British manliness and love OF
fair play-there's nothing to it.
You may think I've been beat up
by talking this way, but fortunately
I've managed to get by fairly well,

BLEssEs THE HELPERS.

Benedict XIV. in his magnificent
letter to our American Bishops ap-
proves and blesses the holy work
of the National Shrine of the I'M
maculate Conception, advises its
immediate beginning, donates to the
high altar a splendid Mosaic copy
of Murrillo's Immaculate Conception,
urges all Catholics, individuals and
societies to contribute generously,
blesses the new church and all who
help in it's erection. The letter ends
with these fatherly and patriotic
words:
''In this respect greater efforts
are demanded of you than Of all
others. owing to the vast influence
which you exercise among your
people. Retaining as they do q
most firm hold on the principles OF
reasonable liberty and of Christian
civilization, they are destined to
have the chief role in the restora-
ton of peace and order, and in the
reconstruction of human society on
the basis of these same principles,
when the violence Of these tempest
uous days shall have passed. Mean
time we very lovingly in the Lord
lmpart the Apostolic benediction,
intermediary of divine graces and
pledge of our paternal good will, to
you our beloved sons, to our vener-
able brethren and to the clergy and
people of your flocks, but in a
particular manner to all those who
shall now or in the future contribute
to the building of the National
Shrine Of the Immaculate Conception
at Washington.

Serbia, Bulgaria or Greece.
The industries of Ireland have
been crushed, and it's resources are
