When you are discouraged or have the blues, think of the grave
yard. In a twinkling, you will brighten mp, be glad you are alive at
any price.
Life is sweet. Scientists say that man some day viii live TO an
average age of at least $50 years. No doubt, they think that is good
news.
But is it,
Much as you love life, would you care to live to 1907 If so, how
about POO, 800 or 1000f
Most old folks, who live beyond 80, go to death with a smile on
their lips. They have tasted life in all forms. Wcaried, they yearn
for the hereafter.
At what age does the vaudeville show called life become monoto-
nousf Talk il over with grandpa.
Numas de Cugna, famous in Hindu history, died at Bengal in
1856, when he was $40 years old.
It's too bad there is no record left of him except tradition. What
answer do you think you'd get it you could call Nnmas up ON the ouija
board and ask him this:
"NmaS, at what age did you weary Of lifei When did the
stupidity of humans, making the same mistakes century after cen
tury, begin to get on your ncrvesf How did it seem TO find all your
friends dead, time after time, while you stayed ont Ii you had TO
live again on earth, wouldn't 100 years be enoughi"
Nmas probably would say, ~ found my life interesting at
times, even in old age. But the first 30 years, my youth, were better
than all the $40 years that followed.
Youth is lfe-aIl Of life that is really worth living. Years that
follow may be interesting, but they would be duh without the thrills
that come from the memories of youth.
Conrad summed it all up in an allegorical story about the sea of
life when journeys end is in sight:
"Ah! The good old time-the good old timel Youth and the
sea. Glamour and the sea! The good, strong sea, the salt, bitter sea,
that could whisper to you and roar at you and knock your breath ont
of you.
by all that's wonderful, it is the sea, | believe, the sea itself
or is it youth alOneH Who can tell2 But you herc-you all had some
thing out OF life: money, love-whateyer one gets on shore-and, tell
me, WASH Z that the best time, that time when we were young at sea

THE BUREAU

N ONCIEVABLY conditions in the administration of vocational
training Of exservice men under the United States veterans bu
" read, OF Federal Board for Vocational Education as it was for
imerly known, have been bad enough, without ~needlessly exaggerat
ing any Of them. The present director OF the bnrau, MI, Forbes, was
put in TO establish efficiency in that bureau. II is recognized that ne
has a big job, and one that needs the close attention OF a very able.
man. 1t is to be hoped that Forbes is such a man. The exservice'
men who need the help of this bureau are certainly entitled to intel
ligent administration of its affairs.
Up to this time Director Forbes efforts appear to have consisted
mainly of explosive speech concerning the conditions he found IN ex-
istenee when he took charge. Probably the conditions justified this
excited comment. The Forbes administration, however, would ere
ate more confidence, we believe, if it were a trihe less explanatory.
In at least one ease, that of the New Mexico State School Of
Mines, Forbes has done a serious injustice. In a statement issued for
distribution throughout the nation he classcd the New Mexico school
with a variety Of private schools Of various classes which he charged
with exploitation Of ex-servee men He said the New Mexico
school had only two trainees who we're maintained at aeost Of $4l250
each. The records seem quite clear thatthe highest cost per trainee
nj the School OF Mines has been less than $55. The average has been
$37 so. The contract which the School Of Mines made with the vet
erans' bureau management, at the request Of the latter called for a
minimum Of 10 students at a maximum cost per student Of S5. All

CORRESPONDENT objects to the assertion Of a leading life in
u suranct company, recently quoted in this column, that the in
decade has been due mainly 10 public health supervision and eduea-
ton. This, our correspondent says, is an assumption entirely with
out support" Urging that it is important 70 'fsee things as they
Aare}' this correspondent contendssthat modern achievement along
health lines Is due 10 one outstanding influence, sanitary engineer
ing science,-in other words, cleanliness"
With this conclusion we heartily agree. Sanitary science has ac-
~complished SO much more than drugs that the two re no longer ser
iously considered together in the broadg aspects of the work of safe
guarding public health
If we Are to ''see things as they are, however, we must agree
that the development Of sanitary engineering science; the safeguard
ing Of public health through an, insisteree upon eleaniiness, has been
due mainly to the medical profession and to the public interest and
cooperation in sanitation and safeguard aroused by theagitation con-
Quoted by leaders in that profession.
To class as "meddlesome medical supervision insistence upon
vaccination against smallpox does not seem to las to be seeing things
with any clearness at all We may be in hearty sympathy with the
very considerable number Of people who do not believe in wholesale
hit Il is blindness, not vision, 10 hold that vaccination has not re-
.duced smallpox and minimized its dangers, although it is, primarily
n filth disease, as the correspondent contends.
We are in hearty accord with the rapidly growing ranks Of those
who oppose what has come TO be termed estate medicine, - as express
.sed in laws seeking to favor and uphold and force upon the people
the belief Of a certain school Of medicine, as against other methods of
healing which may gain confidence, approval and practice through
demonstrated sincerity and success. Fanatics an the medical profess
sion, and some whose motives may be less worthy than those Of the
fanatic, have undoubtedly gone too far in seeking TO enforce certain
forms Of health inspection and medical supervision, in the schools and
in the community at large. We may safely depend upon the indie
pendenee, the love Of freedom and the commons sense Of an educated
people to block these efforts
On tbetother hand it is not in the least seeing things as they are
70 withhold in the slightest degree from the great leaders Of the medi-
cal profession and from the rank and file Of able and generally un-
ership theyhaye furnished throughout the length and breadth OF this
nation in behalf OF protection OF the public health and safeguarding
il against disease; a leadership which brought into existence ,he new
science Of sanitary engineering, made it the peer in usefulness of the
to live, with a longer average life expectancy for each and every one
of us in which TO enjoy the blessing Of complete liberty Of belief as TO
politics, government, healing and religious faith.
The first essential to seeing things as they are" is a broad and
complete tolerance.
