Following is the resolution adopted

to legalizing the eight hour day in

Whereas, the very foundation of the

perpetuation of an eight-hour day in
the lumber industry, and
Whereas, other industries in the
state of Idaho have secured through
the aid of legislation, legal eight
hour day, therefore:
"Be it resolved that it is the intent
of this local to request the passage OF
such a law in the state of Idaho that
will make eight hours a legal days
work in the lumber industry.
BE it further resolved, that a copy
of this resolution be spread on the
minutes, and a copy mailed to the
headquarters of the Loyal Legion OF
Loggers and Lumbermen in Portland
and request them to use their efforts
in securing the passage of such law
to the local papers to secure the sup

As | have previously stated, the
health Of the newborn depends in
a large degree upon the condition
Of the mother during the nine
months previous to its birth. So
il may he said that healthy babies
make strong men and women. Al
though the unborn child is subject
TO harm or benefit quite within the
control of the mother, nevertheless,
The need of thorough physical ex-
animation should again be empha-
sized. This should include an ex-
animation of the heart lungs and
abdomen, and a monthly examina-
ton for possible kidney trouble"
at least during the last five
months.
I'm case the prospective mother
is TO give birth to her first child,
she should also be examined TO de-
teimine whether there exists any
OF bones or small size
of birth canal, which would make
il difficult or impossible TO give
birth TO a full term child. Do not
be- satisfied with your doctor tell
ing you that you will be all right"
without his making a thorough ex-
animation.
With these precautions and those
| have mentioned regarding the
right kind OF food and clothing and
regulation of exercise, being care
fIl TO avoid too strenuous labor,
YOU may reasonably expect TO be
rewarded by giving birth 10 q
sound baby who will have the ad-
vantage of a healthy nursing mother.
Having arrived at the time when
your doctor is expecting 10 be called
at any moment Of the night or day.

The Prospective Mother
BY DR.. Dudley, Associate College Physician

az you have already consulted him
several times, he has in his note
book the probable date Of your con-
nnement. But il will be a great
comfort and advantage to your doc
tor as well as a safeguard for your
self and child should you notify
him at the moment OF the earliest
symptom, so that he may arrange
his work and complete his prepa-
rations TO be in readiness for the
final call.
What was formerly a strong pre-
iudice against going TO a hospital
Is giving away gradually, as IL is
becoming more common for wo-
men TO prefer TO go TO a hospital
TO be confined, and hospitals are
becoming more numerous in the
smaller towns and county seats.
II is TO be hoped that whenever
your physician advises you 10 go
To hospital, because OF reasons
which he will give, you will agree
and he will not advise il unless he
knows that the affairs OF your
home can and should be arranged
TO make il possible.
If the mother is TO be confined
at her own home, arrangements
should be made with your physi-
elan for a nurse, or competent help
which he may select or approve OF,
Many women, needing the income
for such services, are anxious 10
recommend themselves as being
competent, but il is the part OF
wisdom 10 first consult your ply
stefan regarding such an one I'M
less you know that he has employed
her on previous occasions. II IS
much safer to engage the needed
assistance and make all other pre-

every day or two something for no
other reason than that you would
rather not do II, so that when the
hour Of dire need draws nigh, IL
may find you not unnerved and I'M
trained 10 stand the test" And
James adds, such a man will stand
hike tower when everything rocks
around him, and when his weakcr
fellow-morials are winnowed like
chan in the blast"
The main issue here is the weak
ering or the toughenng Of soul
fiber: the average man can't stand
that heroic test. He is content with
lower ethical ground And low con-
tent" is a fearful penalty TO pay.
while I have cited this as a local
illustration the tobacco habit Is as
Stunning tremendous proportions. II
I am right, IL involves an almost uni
vcrsal self-indulgence that weakens
resistance and blunts the finest
power Of spiritual mastery. That is
serious for the moral life, IL 10 be

shall be challenged at this point
by The question whether 7 am not
applying an exalted ethical princi-
pile TO a trivial matter. the tobacco
habit 7 leave the answer TO your
Judgment. Is IL a trivial matter IL
the habit is fastening itself upon us,
and IL il is a form Of self-indulgence.
,On high moral grounds Is the TO-
bacco habit defensible9 Are we not
IN danger OF adopting low moral
plane in order TO LET the trivial
thing by? How about our sense OF
ethical proportion? May not this
unseen value prove TO be one OF the
eternal things9 Can we save our
souls and the indulgent habit too?
or course this must he said There
are unnoticed habits Of self-indul-
gence that fasten upon us all that
arc quite as soul destroying as the
tC bacco habit. The spiritual signifi-
cahce Of this habit is in its universal
and insidious appeal. Whoever loses
the mastery by self-indulgence is in
the smoking class in this sense.
May cite a personal instance OF
this universal struggle To- keep the
initiative while dealing with soul
habits? During these winter months
I am rising at five in the morning
give myself three reasons for this
First. need the extra hour OF time
for work. Second, I am in better
physical condition for work under
this regime. Both OF these reasons
have a moral bearing. But the CHIEF
reason is a matter OF spiritual dis
cipline. found that lying in bed
was a form OF self-indulgence, more
appealing 10 me than smoking, and
quite as destructive Of soul-values
I dread to get up at five, with the
result that I can carry a sense OF
mastery TO the days work. The in
il alive is in my hands. II is this
invisible aspect of trivial, common
place things that constitutes the
eternal issue for the soul. The to-
bacco habit in itself may be tri-
vial matter. but the habit of self
Indulgence is Of enormous con-
sequence.

NEW SCHOOL LAWS FOR
KENTUCKY

In former issues the new County
Board law has been discussed, and
tho power given il TO elect the Sup
erinendent considered. I wish now
10 comment upon the two matters
Of most immediate concern 90 the
people Of the state,-the increased
salaries to be paid 10 teachers and
the additional taxing power given
to the County Board which is de-
manded to make the salary law eff
fective.
Few, IL any, will object TO the bet
ter payment Of teachers. We say
that our children are our most
precious possession, but we had al
lowed conditions TO develop which
made IL impossible TO secure teach
ers OF sufficient education. profes .
sional training, and maturity 10
teach them. There were literally
thousands of schools taught last
year by young people who were &C
italy below the standard set by law.
alarmingly low as that is, simply be-
cause the money paid for teaching
was insufficient. IL should be entirely
self-evident that a wage lower than
Is paid for a ditch digger or a wash
woman is too low TO secure on,
worthy TO stand in the place Of par
cnt tG children for six hours out OF
each school day. And yet we have
been paying such wages TO many
teachers in our state. The new min
imum salary Of $500 per month for
a term OF not less than six months
Is as low as we can afford 10
pay, and too low for the best of our
children, even yet. We must look
To paying a minimum Of at leas,
$4,000 per month within the near
future, for THE best is hardly good
enough when my child is the one
10 be helped or harmed, and every
other child in the community de-
serves that which is as good as
desire for my own.
There is one serious danger, how
ever. TO this increase in salary
Will the Better Salary get the Bet.
ter Teacherl Or will we pay the
higher wage for an inferior work
man? A better salary cannot make
a poor teacher good. On the Other
hand it may serve TO make NOR,
active the school hunter" who i;
possessed Of some form OF certi-
iicate, and is willing to use al
kinds of influence TO secure 9
good salary with a small amount o
work required. So it may happier
that, if the people Of every distric
are not alive TO the danger OF tn,
situation, we may spend hundred
Of thousands of dollars this schoo
year with little improvement in Tn,
