 Three times in the sib weeks pre- ceding the ZR-2's fatal trial ttip, Lieut.. William R. Taylor of the medi- cal corps dreamed that the airship was wrecked, and one of the dreams vividly pictured almost the exact cir cumstances attending the actual dis g. ter. Taylor, by the way, was in Hull on the day of the catastrophe and saw the ZR-2 meet her fate. In his dream, he saw her split in two and hurtle down just as few days later it actually happened.
 Lieut. J. B. Lawrence also dreamed that the ZR-2 was wrecked. Shields was one of those selected to take the trial trip on the big airship but was aken i'll after boarding her, owing to an earlier accident, and Norman o. Walker took his place; the latter be-

MANSFIELD TO LEAD THE WAY
Ohio Town Selected as Place for
Demonstration of HeaIthfuI De-
veIoPment Of Children.

Mansfield in Richland county,
Ohio, has come into a new and unique
fame. A city of less than 10000, it
has certain distinction as the former
home of John Sherman. 1t has the
census distinction of having increased
in population "a per cent between 1910
and 1920. The new distinction comes
from it's having been selected from
among eighty communities by the
National Health council as place
for the demonstration of what can be
done for the most healthful develop
ment of children. Its qualifications
for the high experiment are said most
nearly to approach those Of "a typical
American community
Huxley's definition Of disease was
"a perturbation Of the normal activi-
ties of living body" As DR.. John
NJ. Clarke, the geolOgist, in most
engaging report on "Organic Depend
ence and Disease" has put it: "Disease
is any departure from normal living"
The, proposed experiment, carried
through a period Of at least five years,
should not only keep this typical city
Of Mansfield and the surrounding
county in normal hearth, but also help
to show the ways Of preventing disease
Through sanitation, health education,
the formation Of health habits and
the like) in thousands Of other com.
munities. So Mansfield will lead
the way to "normalcy' in national
health.-New York Times.

HOSPITAL an Attraction.

Little Marjorie, age four, was the
only one of the family of four to es-
cape injury when their auto was IN
collision with another. Mother, father
and q sister went to hospital with
semi-serious injuries and when they
returned home they were loud in their
praises of the attentions of the nurses
and tile kindness of neighbors in send
ing fruit, flowers and bonbons.
A few days ago Marjorie toddled
into the street and was struck by a
passing auto, being knocked down ana
suffering a bump on the head. She
was able to hurry into the house, where
she said to her father:
Daddy, do you think this bump IS
big enough for me to go to that hos
pital?"-Indianapoli News.

Breathing Space.

The modern ideas of education are
, all very well as far as they go, but
there is an old and well-tried lproverb
which says that a little knowledge is
a dangerous thing. Perhaps that is
why Johnny Jdnes''s essay on air ran
like this. I'll P"fzs y
'Breath is 1maae, 81 air. We breathe
always5with our lungs, except at night,
when. our breath keeps life going
through our noses while we are asleep,
If it wasn't for our bt eath we should
die whenever we slept,
Boys that stay in q room all day
should not breathe. They should wait
until they get outdoors. A lot of boys
staying. in room make carbOnicide,
and ;carbonicide is more poisonous
than mad dogs, though not just in
the same way. 1t does not bite, but
that's no matter so long as it kills
you.''

SYSTEM IN. PLANTING TREES
Beautiful and" Pleasing Streets Are
Dependent Upon Care in Choice
and Uniformity.

Large towns and cities have Or
dinances regulating, the species, spac-
ing and care Of shade trees on the
parking. Odinarily these regulations
prevent mistakes and are wise in their
construction. In smaller towns the
denizens plant what and where they
please. The result is not as pleasing
and in time, If the town prospers and
grows, much early effort needs to be
undone.
The common mistakes, according to
w. j. Morrill, Of the Agricultural
College at Fort Collins, are too close
planting, the use of more than one
species, often several, on one street
and different alignments of trees.
Care is required in choosing species
suited to climatic and soil conditions.
Too often rapid growing, inferior
species are selected; they may be used
satisfactorily as filters to be removed
early but planting Of the best species
for permanence will be done by the
most far-seeing' communities.
If one will draw the following mem
tai picture, he will not go far wrong
in street tree planting. Trees along
the street serve as formal ornaments,
like pillars ornamenting Greek
temple. They should all look alike.
in shape and size, on an entire street.
Like the temple pillars, they should
be in one alignment and equi-distantly
spaced The ideal may not be attained
but the nearer the approach to it the
more pleasing will be the street.
