Physical Efficiency.

THE New NUk Evening WORLDLY
1-Disabuse your mind OF any
thought that you can rely on any
get-rich-quick scheme to increase
your physical efficiency or to pro-
long your lite. Ponce de Leon did
not find the Fountain OF Youth, and
neither can you. The human body
is complicated machine. Furthef-
more, your age, living condition and
character Of work all have important
influences on what you should or
should not do so as to safeguard
your health.
2-Consult doctor yearly in order
that you may learn from him what
your specific needs are.
3--Follow his advice.
4-Seek dental attention every six
months.
5-Stand for efficient health ad-
illustrations in your community,
State and county. The average man
and woman's physical efficiency and
longevity depend on measures taken
by central health authorities rather
than on what they do individually.
6-Stand for better teaching OF per
sonal hygiene in our schools and col
leges. The instruction OF children
has improved OF recent years. But
how many people know the every
day practical facts which would en-
able them to take caro- of their own
health? Very few A good health
Hana ~ only II
needs the help OF every Individual and
this will be more than repaid to the
individuals concerned.
Take advantage Of any practical
course in personal hygiene which
may be available TO you.
S-If you are unfortunate enough to
be taken sick, call in a doctor at once.
Amateur doctoring is more dangerous
than amateur having.
9-Moderation in work, play, exeF-
else, food and drink Is highly de-
sirable. High speed and overlooking
will wear out your body just as they
do any machine.
10-Keep clean in body, clothing
| and morals as we'll us in the water
you drink and in the food you eat.
! From certain recent Investigations
made by Col. J. G.. Cumming, NJ. c.,
| L. s. A.. and myself in order to pre-
vent respiratory diseases, including
| pneumonia, the captain of the men OF
death, it appears this cleanliness
must be extended to eating utensils
which must be washed habitually
with boiling water.
1l-Patent medicines are made for
/ the millions. The chances of their
, fitting your need arr very small
speak of the comparatively few which
contain potent drugs. The majority
are pure frauds Leave them alone
4 Advice made for the million but Of
specific application has about the
same value as a patent medicine. BY
resortinE to either, you may permit
dangerous delay in seeking a doctor
who can tell you what you and not
what some other fellows need.

A Grave Mistake.

TO the Editor Of The Evening World
read with great interest your edt-
torlal in to-day's issue entitled "a
Grave Mistake"
BY their action in eXpelling the five
Socialist Representatives. the New
York Assemblymen have put them
selves in more perilous and con-
yicting position than are the Reds
Anarchists They have undone the
everlasting confidence of their fellow
citizens. They are showing the peo-
ole OF this country, and especially the
citizens of New York State. that the
law" can be exceeded, something
which the Reds have been trying
in vain to accomplish.
II is a good example for the Reds
but what about our real American
citizens? Are they going to allow
this excess of authority? Clear mind
ed and honest American citizens,
regardless of their political atiilia-
tions. will admit this gross injustice.
We do not know whether or not the
five Socialist Assemblymen are guilty
or innocent OF the charges placed
against them. However, we do know
the law allows public judgment and
| this opportunity shall be extended TO
the citizens Of this state next Novem-
Der. The method employed by the
Assemblymen causes both unrest and
resentment. 1t provides ammunition,
| literary ammunition, to further the
doctrines and propaganda of the Reds,
| the |. w. w. and other alien enemies.
There must be a reconsideration OF
Arhis gross miscarriage Of authority.
III the facts of the case prove the
| NpellCd members to be guilty, then,
| New York Assemblymen, II you are
! liberty loving and law abiding citi-
Zens, give your Socialist members a
fair trial and at the same time you
will prove to the people of this State
and country your intentions are really
to uphold the law. Thus you can re-
gain the confidence of the people.
! want to state that l am not a
Socialist; neither am | a member OF

Daylight Saving
Sweeps the Country

y INCE New York adopted its Day
y light Saving ordinance, which
was strongly supported by The
Evening World, the measure has swept
across the country despite the National
veto.
cities everywhere have seen the
value OF the added hours Of daylight,
and even agricultural communities
have begun to favor the idea. To date
the following cities have adopted Day
light Saving:
i Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Jersey City.
Syracuse, Cincinnati, Hartford, Conn.
Plainfield, N. j.; st. Joseph, Mich,
Worcester, Mass.
Surveys of commercial organiza-
( tions arc in progress in Massachu-
sets. New Jersey, Delaware, Penn
sylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Ten
nessee, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Wis
consin, Colorado, Utah. Connecticut,
I Minneapolis and Kentucky, to ascer-
tain the sentiment of their members
with regard TO daylight saving.
Many smaller cities, towns and vii
lagos have adopted the measure and
throughout the country civic organi-
cations are pushing the idea.
/ The fact that farmers are in
! terested in the plan is shown By the
! act of the New Hampshire State
Grange in refusing To go on record as
opposed to n daylight saving act.
Washington, ID. c., Is planning day
( light saving, but only contemplatas
a two months period of changed
/ time.
Most of the plans follow the New
York City principle, ordering that the
| clocks shall be set ahead one hour on
! the last Sunday in March and turned
back one hour on the last Sunday IN

Worcester, Mass, has solved the
railroad schedule problem by declar-
| ing that the hands on all clocks. ex-
