Whooping cough is the mean
est" disease that childhood IS
heir to. While rarely fatal in
itself, except to children under
two years of age, still it hangs on
so long-the coughing paroxysms
are SO violent, preventing proper
sleep and digestion-that when
the disease does disappear it
leaves the child weakened and
run down. In addition the
violent coughing racks and strains
the air passages and after re-
covery this irritation frequently
remains.
During this period of conval-
escence the child should be most
carefully watched until full
strength is restored and the air
passages regain their normal tone.
A prominent authority even goes
so far as to say-"There is more
criminal neglect in connection
with whooping cough than with
any other disease"
While the disease is active,
Vick's VapoRub usually helps to
lessen the violence of the cough
ing, but it is during conval-
escence that Vicks is most val
liable.

SUGAR ExToRT1oN

The price Of sugar is high, and go
ing up right along. There are prophe-
cies OF accent. 50-cent, even 60-cent
sugar. Sugar, when its food-value is
considered, in comparison with >the
nctritive value Of other foods at pres
ent prices, may possibly be worth Is
or 80 cents a pound. It is certainly
not worth 40 or so cents as a staple
article of diet. And even the COM
paratively modest 25 or 80 cents,
even though justifable intrinsically,
is certainly unjustifiable and ought
not to be paid if it means an exorbi-
tant pxofit Of the sugar industry.
That is exactly what it does mean,
according to all the information avail
able. There has been no failure OF
the sugar crop. There is no real SUI
gar famine. There is merely this sit
uation, that a few big corporations
are in control Of nearly all the raw
and refined sugar. and are determined

SCHOOLS NEED MEN AND METH
DDS

The committee on industrial educa-
ton of the National Manufacturers
Association finds fault with the
schools Of the country because Of the
overwhelming dominance of wom-
an teachers The critics do not de-
cry them so much for the elementary
branches, but feel that when it comes
to the more advanced work and es-
pecially the vocational training, t.
woman teacher frequently lacks a
knowledge Of industrial requirement:
in general, and any but the most su-
perficial experience in the trade
which she is attempting to teach.
There is undoubtedly much truth in
this. contention, but there is only one
remedy-the financing of each school

THE UNNECESSARY VACATION

Once upon a time a, man decided
that he did not need any vacations, so
He stopped taking them. When there
came a lull in his business he took
on outside employment, and he brag-
eed to his friends Of his impervious-
I ness to fatigue. Whenever one Of
Them began to plan for the annual
fishing or camping trip he would say
ssI have not had a vacation in seven
years. Not so bad. is it?'
Now, il his friends were truthful
;sfnstead OF tolerant, they would tell
him that it is just as bad as it can
possibly be: that in the seven years,
while he has increased his labors, he
has not increased his income appre-
ciab1y; that from one OF the most
couabIe of human beings he has be-

BACK TO pRE-wAR PRODUCTION

An excellent bit of advice is giver
to workmen by John Donlin, head c1
the building trades department of the
American Federation of Labor. He
says, in his report at the Montreal
convention:
The wage Garner is just as much
responsible for the high cost Of siv-
ing as any other agency. If every
worker doing physical labor would in
sist that production equal pre-war
times there would soon be a reduction
in the price Of commodities. The
higher wages go and the moro produc-
tion falls off the more the worker is
going to be hurt
This advice is especially pertinent
at this time, in view of the report
made by Cleveland grand jury to
the effect that men in the building
trades in that city have been doing
only half as much work as they did
before the war. and that this is one OF
the chief causes Of expensive building
and high rent.

white being carried out in the con-
struction of garden scene.
Before the ceremony, a beautiful
musical program was rendered.
The prelude on the organ was
played by Mrs. James Graham, fol-
lowed by Mrs. John Lee who sang
Florence Aylland's Loves Corona
ton" Mrs. Sanford Halliday of
ESpartanburg then played "Cavatina, "
by Rolf, her violin adding much ito
the program. Mrs. John Lee again
sang, and the old song, "At Dawing," !"
by Cadman, never sounded sweeter to
her hearers. "Traumeri" was next
played by Mrs. Halliday.
Promptly at the appointed hour,
Mrs. Graham sounded the first strains

bridal procession to enter. First were
the ushers, Arthur Haynsworth, James

THE LUXURY TAX

The wisdom Of the so-called luxury
| tax, as a producer of revenue with
| the least friction, is upheld in state
ment made by the New York collector
Of internal revenue. He says that in
Manhattan alone the expenditure fol
articles designated as luxuries has
reached a total Of s105,000,O00 a
month. The taxes levid on this big
sum seemed to be paid almost invari-
ably without a murmur, because, as he
explains, the peop.e have the money,
and the tax is small compared with
the total cost Of the thing. bought,
whether it be a glass Of soda water or
an automobile.
Moreover, the remarkable fact
develops that it is the humble pur-
chasers who pay most Of the luxury
taxes. Says the revenue officer: my
accountants show that there is more
money collected IN tax from ice cream
sodas and other small sales which
carry a penny or two of tax than there
is from. the sale Of diamonds, furs,
touring cars and other expensive
items" Other revenue districts tell
the same story.
Self-chosen champions Of the sup
posedly down-trodden proletariat may
gnash their teeth at this, but the pro-
letarians themselves refuse to get
excited about it And they are right.
Everybody has been indulging in lux
ury, the humber spenders no less than
the millionaires, the wage-earners no
less than the bankers, in proportion
to their usual rate OF expenditure and
the character Of their purchases. It
is right that when a whole nation,
from top TO bottom, goes luxury-mad,
all sould be made subject alike to lux.
ury taxes.
However, Hest Congress be moved
to work good thing still harder, and
boost the luxury tax a notch or two.
it is just as well to add that the same
cheerful internal revenue collector be-
IieYes the peak Of luxurious spending
was reached last month. and that
people from now on are going. to think
more before investing in commodities
subject to the tax. That source Of
revenue, then may soon shrink con-
