las NEW COUNTY
PHYSICIAN PLAN
DR.. A. E. KepfOrd Outlines Bill He
VIII Sponsor Before Next
Legislature.

Employment OF county physicians
who will give their entire time to
county health work, doing no private
practice, and whowill devote particu-
lar attention to the health of children
in the public schools and to epidem-
biological cases and preventive medi-
cine is the leading feature of a bill
drawn for presentation to the ap-
preaching session of the general as
sembly and sponsored by A. E. Keep
ford, state tuberculosis lecturer, DR..
Kepford outlined the features of the
bill in an address before students OF
the University of Iowa summer ses-
sion.
at would be necessary to pay big
salary to the right kind of men to
make such system successful" said
DR.. Kepford,f "but the present ineffi-
Gent method of calling on different
physicians for different cases and
permitting city and county physicians
to divide their interests between pub
lie health and private practice is one
which should be corrected"
DR.. Kepford said that the tendency
to raise bottle-fed babies accounts for
the higher percentage of tuberculosis
in rural districts, inasmuch as most
tuberculosis comes from cows milk
which has not been properly pastuer-
lied.
every child up to seven years of
age has had tuberculosis" he said,
'but these young children have virgile
agents in their blood which over
come tubercular action in the body.
1t is in adults that difficulty develops
in controlling the disease. Contrary
to popular belief both tuberculosis
and typhoid fever are comfortable,
however"

STRAIGHT TO THE SUN FOR
POWER.

Don't worry about our lessenlng
supplies of coal and oil. There need
be no collapse of the Industrial world
as long as the sun goes on shining
For the sun of course is the source
of all power and one way to run our
factories and heat our homes would be
to 20 direct to the sun. In an expert
mental way it has been done already a
number of times.
OF course the conversion OF sun
heat directly into steam or electricity
on commercial scale, and the appll-
cation of it to all the various work or
civilization is a very different labo-
ratory experiment. No one can fore
see what practical difficulties could
be encountered. 1t is probable that
man will 60 on using the power that
nature has stored in the earth as long
as it lasts; that he will supplement II
first by careful development OF all
water power resources; by the max
ing of fuel alcohol on a large scale
and that the direct conversion OF sun
heat into power will come last. Inat
it will come untimely there is little
doubt. And some scientists OF con-
seryative reputation and high stand
ing will tell you that this development
is overdue now. They say it is only
the immense inertia Of men as a
whole, their devotion to their habit,
and their lack of properly organized
scientific enterprise which prevent the
speedy development of sun-po"er
plants.-The Nations Business.

America More Interested in Educa-
ton Than Any Other Country
Says Iowa President.

1--WE are now in the midst of the
greatest period of interest in educa-
ton that has ever been known to af-
feet a great country" says President
Walter A. Jessup of the University

Der about $4,000.
"Is it wise for everyone to go to
school? That depends on the school,
Our elementary, secondary, collegiate
and professional schools must be or
such nature as to fCTlFcr the cause
Of human welfare. 1t is for the STU
dents of the University of Iowa to
take leading part in supporting this
educational revival. Iowa can be first
in eduration in the United States If all
of us will pay the price Of responsible
leadership"
