MALNUTRITION SHOULD BE
TREATED.


Unless recognized early and measures
are taken to remove 1t, the effects OIL
malnutriton in childhood may last to
adult life. 1t may show itself as pro-
longed Ill health and feeble resistance
to disease; the individual may grow up
understood and underweight, not strong
enough to do the average work of a man
or woman.
How common the condition of malnu-
triton Is may be shown by the result of
the selective draft, where nearly 10000
Of the young men examined were re-
Jected because of developmental defects,
principally underweight.
Careful Investigations which have been
made show that fully 20 per cent of the
chtlren in our schools are at present suf-
fering from malnutrition. Is your child
one of this number?
WHAT TO DO.
In order to prevent malnutrition, or
at least to recognize it before serious
consequences have followed, the most
important thing is. watch the child's
weight. This can best be done in school.

should be taken and recorded and special

ents, teacher or school nurse or doctor
If there is one. 1t Is essential that every
child Of the school age should receive a
full medical examination once a year.
A child who is suffering from malnu-
trition-that is, one who is much below
normal weight or one who IS steadily
losing weight or one who IS not making
normal gain-should at once be taken
to physician and examined to see If any
disease is developing. In the case of
children residing in areas In which ma
laria or hookworm prevail the physician
should search for the parasites Of these
and similar diseases The child's whole
daily life should be carefully gone into
to see which of the rules Of health he Is
violating, and whether this pertains TO
his food, his habits of eating. his hours
OF play, OF school work, or of sleep.
Malnutrition is cured by correcting the
habits or removing the causes already
mentioned upon which It depends. Offer,

The republican state committee admits
the right of the taxpayer to control bond
issues and tax levies. It says:
"No one will deny the inconvenience of
a visit to indianapolis to obtain per-
mission to issue bonds to build a road
or with respect to fixing Of local tax
levies Most Of these visits, however, are
unnecessary. They are of no help to the
tax board and the whole matter can more
definitely and effectively be presented in
writing and by mail. Lawyers have
learned this and personal visits are be-
coming less frequent. Finally, the tax
payers will have to decide whether they
desire to avoid the inconvenience of
whatever personal visits are necessary by
vesting control over bond issues and tax
levies in local authorities or endure the
inconvenience for the sake OF economical
local government. 1t Is the taxpayers
business and his voice should control"
1t is refreshing to find that in this
"best tax law that could be devised" the
republican party finds that there are I'm
conveniences" that must be endured"
One would naturally think that in the
greatest achievement since the Civil
war" the administration had evolved a
law that would not have to be endured
but would be welcomed.
However, the candid way in which the
committee admits that the question of
local or state control over bond issues
and tax levies is 1.-The taxpayers business
and his voice should control" is re-
assuring.
The question now is in what manner
the Taxpayers voice may he heard and
in what way he shall control
The republican committee declares that
the taxpayers visits to the tax board in
support of their right to be heard and
to control are unnecessary" and "in-
convenient" 1t suggests letters to the
board as a much more efficient way to
express the public opinion.
Waving the question Of whether a let
ter is a more desirable way of expressing
desires than a face to face meeting there
remains to be considered the manner
in which the letter will be received.
There is today nothing In the pro-
cedure of the state tax board to indicate
on what 1t bases IT'S decisions as to bond

JOY AND YOUR JOB

Maybe you're one of the famous few,
Maybe you're one of the moing mob
But it's little difference what you do,
If you put joy into your job
Aud the joy comes back to others and you
With zest which shall long remain,
For its quality fingers through and through
AS wood is marked of fits grain
The rewards of the world are parceled out
In a crude, rude way may not trust.
For We give crown to a crazy lout
While shivering genius gnaws crust
And the only wage which is safe and sure
The only reward which none may rob,
Is the everyday effort to make secure
That Joy goes into the job.
No, am not acclaming a calm content
For pocketed put-upon, pent-ln- folk
I dc not hold It a life we'll spent
Which hardens It's neck to the needless yoke,
But say that Shakespeare's lines are lies
And Rafael's colors dreary daub,
Unless in his effort the workman tries
To put Joy into his job

Remedies for Unrest
MIR. Leacock Advocates Social Reforms:
Professor Fisher Pleads for Stable Dollar

JIoSIlCE. BY Stephen Ieacock. John
THE STABILIZED DOLLAR BY Irving
Ilshcr. The Macmillan Company New
York.
In these days of high and rising
prices economics is becoming an in
creasingly if painfully popular subject
OF study. Labor demands higher wages;
capital emphasizes the need for pro-
ductlon; while the hard pressed and
somewhat mythical "publc" is pathct-
lcally anxious for a reduction in the
cost of living. In his survey of the
modern economic situation Mr.. Leacock
briefly covers the whole field of social
reform. Professor Fisher, on the other
hand, confines himself to the expo
sltion Of single remedy
There is no trace of Mr.. Lcacock's
accustomed humor in his present
work. At the outset he paints pic
ture OF the worlds present condition
dark enough to satisfy the most dis
gruntled radical. After pointing out
the havoc wrought by the war and
the critical industrial situation everv-
where he Declares:
Never, then, was there a moment in
which there was greater need for sane
and serious thought 1t is necessary
TO consider from the ground up the
social organization in which we live
and the means whereby it may be
altered and expanded to meet the needs
of the time to come. We must do this
or perish; If we do not mend the
machine there are forces moving in the
world that will break it. The blind
samson of labor will seize upon the
pillars Of society and bring them down
in a common destruction.' -
After this prelude he enters upon q
consideration of the effects of the in
dustrial revolution and the classical
theories Of political economy. He
points out the discrepancy between the
possibilities and the actual achieve
ments of modern machine industry. He
estimates that the productive capacity
OF the human race has been multiplied
one hundred times during the last
hundred and fifty years. During the
same period the population of the great
industrial countries, on the average
has perhaps trebled. Yet poverty has
not been abolished, the hours of work
for most people are still long and
"cai iSolne. ana great masses OF work.
crs still live in want, If not in actual
suffering. Mr.. Leacock explains this
apparent contradiction on the ground
that an immense amount Of productive
energy is diverted to the manufacture
of luxuries.
The author punctures the falacious
and arbitrary dogma of the classical
economists that every man receives
what he is entitled to. He points out
very clearly that wages arc determined
not by right and justice. but by the
organized bargaining power of work
men and employers Not increased
production, but the increased strength
of trade unions is responsible for The
amelioration of living conditions among
the working classes during the last
century.
Despite his severe criticisms of some
OF the consequences of the unrestrict-
ed competitive order, Mr.. Leacock is

employers which would establish bet

AS editor of System" Mr.. Clark has
been in direct touch with problems of
management and he is acquainted with
every crook and turn in the capital

into clear definition the more impor-

employees with an appraisal Of methods
which have proved successful in har-

large factories in America are quoted
and their policies presented so that the
reader not only finds description Of
