The "Indiyidual" Element
BY o. B. CUTLER

Nearly everything in business today
hinges upon the sincerity of the in
terest that the individual takes in the
performance of his duties.
All occupations are suffering from
the Indifference of the bulk of their
Operatives. Both men and women
workers do not seem to see that the
Losses their neglect and half-hearted
work entail bulks to a terrific total
which is projected against their own
comfort.
= Many have more regret over a loss
OF a dollar than they have over the
loss of the consciousness of duty. The
real fact of the matter today is that
this country is in far greater danger
of a self-indulgence panic than it is of
a money panic.
Safety, prosperity and the ability to
enjoy moro fully the privileges of the
present advancement of civilization
are wrapped in the desire to serve in
the manner that. the individual himself
would be served. Such a belief prac-
ticed makes one first worthy of pros
perity, then presents him with it and
protects him in it.
Once we can get general accept
ance of the fact, and it is a fact beyond
dispute, that safety, prosperity, and
advancement of civilization are each
manner that the individual himself
would be served" we shall have ad-
vanced far toward a satisfactory solu-
tion of our economic problems. 1t is
because of this fact that our appeal
almost invariably is to the individual
rather than to the mass.
Each one of us must come to feel in
dividual responsibility for existing con-
ditions and to practice individual eff
fort to bring about. a change in these
conditions. Progress lies along the
way of mass consciousness and effort.
The individual element always has
held, holds now and always will hold,
the secret of human advancement
morally, socially and economically.

COWLESS MILK WON'T DO
Connection Looks like
and Tastes Like Milk, But Does
Not Contain Necessary Vitamins.

Henry Ford's threat to make Cow
less milk" is old stuff. Any chemist
car go into his laboratory and mix up
ccncoction of elements that looks
Ike milk and tastes like milk and has
all the known chemical ingredients of
milk but still it is not milk. A baby
would starve on it; it lacks vitamins.
Nltamins are certain minute,
elusive, mysterious properties that
nature mixes with her foods As yet
the scientists have not isolated them
but they are certain they exist and
have even classified them according
to various known qualities. Vitamins
are necessary for life. Certain fatal
and hitherto obscure ailments follow
lack of them in food.
In the days of sailing vessels scurvy
was a scourge of the sailors. Their
rations were chiefly bareback and salt
pork which are lacking in vitamins.
a few lemons or oranges or potatoes
or other fresh fruits or vegetables pre-
vented or cured the scurvy. In GER
tain places where rice is the chief ar
ttcle of diet beri-beri, an obscure and
fatal nervous disease is prevalent. The
laps in polishing the rice destroyed
the vitamin which is located on the
outer layer of the kernel.
ricketts, is a disease of infants fed
on artificial foods. Cows milk, moth
er's milk, fruit juices supply the miss
ing vitamins and are a preventive
and a cure.
So until the chemists isolate Vita
Tnins-for milk contains several varie-
ties-we will have to worry along and
raise the babies without Henry's help.

necessities because they're probably at

reigns supreme.
Moving Van Shows Up.
After what seems ages filled with
work and the inconvenience of make
shifts, the van draws up to the door
and all their earthly goods are trans
ported to their new abode. Then a
siege similar to the packing-up pro-
cess begins. You know it is said that
three moves are a bad as a fire. The
piano has another scratch. a leg is off
the chair, the cut-glass pitcher is
broken in a thousand pieces, the
handles have been knocked off the

BY LOIS RoBINErTE.

Contemporaneous with the spring
fever germ is the moving germ. With
the melting of the last snow and the
shooting forth dandelions this little
bug becomes virulent. Individuals
apparently strong and healthy in every
respect fall victims to it and oftimes
the disease become chronic-the at

The symptoms are much more evil
dent in the female of the species than
in the male-as all the man of the
house generally cares about is having
a good bed, a full stomach and a roof
that will shed rain. But with the
Mrs. it's different.
Many Complaints to Make.
Instantly upon catching the germ
she perceives one defect after another
in her home. the dining room paper
is too dark. the parlor, too light, some
of the doors won't shut without slam
ming, the windows rattle and bang. the
kitchen isn't at all convenient, the
house needs painting. the neighbour
hood isn't what it might be. and con-
sidering all these defects and draw
backs the rent is exorbitant.
She looks thru the newspapers in
the For Rent" ads, hoping to find
some cure-all. And she is not dis
appointed. for the moving disease is
contagious and there are whole col
umns of houses far superior to hers
advertised.
