THE FORUM

The statement that an armoly could
not be used for anything except the
guard is also wrong. 1t could Be used
for any kind of community CATERING
so long as it did not interfere with the
duties of the company.
We are going to have a compay of
national guard here in Richmondand
it will be maintained by the statesnd
federal government
The Armory on South Seventh stret
will be open Tuesday, Thursday ain
Saturday nights and Sunday aftei
Moons. Several men have taken them
examination already and Lieutenant
Fox is prepared to swear them in, so
all young men who are interested
come up and let US get acquainted
and get things moving.
Under the national defense act of

The Danger of Routine

President William Lowe Bryan of Indiana uni
versity spoke effectively here few days ago
against the danger of being satisfied with mere
routine knowledge of your occupation or profess
sion.
Unless you master fundamentals, he said, you
will soon find yourself in the trap of your own
habits. The skilled worker whose knowledge is
limited to the machine which he operates and the
process which he has been taught becomes an I'M
skilled worker when machines are changed and
new methods introduced.
This is an important thought which the boys
and girls of our community should take to heart.
Many of them are satisfied to remain on job
that pays well but does not prepare them for bet
ter positions The years roll by the boy has be-
come man. and suddenly he discovers that he is
trapped by the limitations of his knowledge.
Another boy is willing to work for years at
smaller wages at another occupation because he
realizes that his job offers training for advance
rnent He studies the fundamentals of his trade
or calling eagerly adds to his knowledge by study
and observation, and diligently prepares himself
for the promotion. This boy is not trapped, but
is free and Independent, master of his calling
He is not slave of his job, for his mastery OF
it's intricacies has made him ruler of his job.
Richmond offers a splendid way in which as
piring boys and girls may escape laundering into
a trap. The night school is intended to keep
them out of the shackles of ignorance and
routine Here they may learn fundamental
operations and principles that underlie routine.
Let them master these and they may face the
future serenely.

ito admit to the United States ver1pin infested
immigrants"
Science has demonstrated that vermin carry
the disease. Hence, it will be easy to check the
entrance of typhus. All the health authorities of
the United States, cooperating with the immi-
grafton department, need do is to delouse the
men and women seeking admission to our coun-
try.
Immediate steps to check the spread of the
disease have been taken in the ports where it has
appeared. Continued precautionary methods
should be applied until all danger of an epidemic
has passed The country still shudders at the
high mortality caused by the influenza epidemic
few years ago. Typhus will claim thousands of
our people if once it gets foothold. Prevention
is preferable to quarantine after the disease has
once begun it's malignant spread.

Prevent the Entrance of Typhus

~ 1t is automatic that starvation and pestilence
follow in the wake of every great war. The his
tory, of Europe is replete with pages narrating
ethe awful suffering which hunger and disease
inflicted upon people after their country had
been ravaged by war. The World war is no ex-
ception, for whole districts of Europe and the
Near East have been depopulated, and where
once were flourishing communities and fertile
agricultural districts today is seen only desola-
ton and population slowly dying of starvation
and disease. ~@ .~" >. -----
~ The United States so far has been able to
escape both starvation and pestilence. But this
fortunate condition is menaced by the first ap-
pearance of typhus in New York city, carried
there by immigrants or by crews of vessels
touching European ports where this disease pre-
walls. >~..
Typhus has taken heavy toll of lives in the
war devastated countries Relief agencies in
+elude in their programs appropriations and
medical units to combat it's spread. They know
that an offering Of foodstuff to the starving and
sick is Intellectual if it is not accompanied by
medical relief for the thousands who have been
infected by typhus.
If this disease should obtain foothold in the
United States, it would require hard work to
eradicate it. In view of its prevalence in Europe
and of the suffering which it entails proper steps
to prevent its appearance in this country should
be taken The first warning has been sounded.
Let the immigration and health authorities unite
to check the channel through which it may be
communicated to our population. This is at the
ports where immigrants land.
No immigrants from European countries
should be permitted to enter country until
the plague bearers have been examined and iso-
lated. "It is neither safe nor decent" said DR..

York city, in telegram to Secretary Tumulty

LUKE SIMMONS ON
- ezsstI "WAR AND ETC"
Dear ROY see by the papers that
While half the world is getting ready
For peace. the other half is getting
Ready for war and all the nations
Are willing to disarm but refuse to
Give up their armies and battleships.
Every country is willing to have all
The other countries give up their guns,
Which seems fair enough, but, while
There is all this howdy-do about peace
And brotherly love and ETC., some of
Our ex-spprts in the navy department
Want to haul an old battleship out
Onto her to see if they can sink her,
The idea being to find out whether
To disarm by building more battle
ships
Or by building more airplanes.
We are bound to have peace, but we
don't
Know whether to fight in the air
Or on the water while we are having
it,
And it seems to be quite a question
And l see one bird has invented
A projectile that will go 40 miles
And will penetrate any armor plate
That can be made, and another guy
Has invented an armor plate that
Nothing in the world can punch
Hole in it. And another inventor
Has got up a dinkus that will
Destroy battleship by electricity
When it is 112 miles away and never
Leave a trace. And somebody else has
Got up a new kind Of gas that will
Suffocate the whole state of New York
From powder that you can carry in
Your vest pocket. Now if the airplanes
Do blow UP that battleship, does it
Prove that we ort to build nothing
But airships or that we ort to build
Bigger battleships that can't
Be blowed up? l am in the late
War. way up to the neck, and am so
Deep in it and SO busy right in my
Own sector that / don't find out much
About the war itself. And now l
And in the midst of peace and l can't
Find out what kind of a bird peace is.
/ don't want nomore war and judging
BY the peace l have seen. l don't
Want no more of that neigther. Yrs.

my goat comes back to town" Then,
for a change. l bought my goods, my
prunes and cheese, at Grocer Woods.
l thought I'd trade there for a while,
since change of base is all the style,
and then return to Greggs once more
as in the festive days of yore. But,
meeting Gregg upon the street, and
giving him greeting sweet, he hand
ed me frozen stare. as grouchy as a
grizzly bear. Oh, he was sore and full
of bile because I left him for while:
he seemed to think he owned my soul
and had mortgage on my roll. The
good old years will roll away, and
whiskers red will change to gray, and
dynasties will rise and burst and bow
vows turn to wienerwurst before I go
to Gregg's again to blow my hard
earned iron men. The merchants in
this world of ours should always speak
their thoughts with flowers; if they
express their thoughts with bricks
they drive off patrons by such tricks.
