The Careful Crossing Movement

The railroads are promoting a
movement to induce the public to use
more care in passing over grade
crossings.
More than $500 people were killed
and injured in railroad crossing ac-
cidents last year. These folks failed
to realize that a railroad train
moves very much faster than an or
dinary automobile, and that while
their car is going 100 yards, the
train has probably run 300 to 400
Drivers should slow up and lister
carefully at every crossing. If they
see or hear a train anywhere near
let it go by.
Many accidents are caused as The
result of stalling of the motor OF
the tracks. Drivers slowed up anC
lost their headway and the engine
stopped. If motorists would go int
second speed when approaching
such crossings, they could contro
their cars better and avoid chance
of accident.

KNEESKERN WRITING BOOK
Already Has Several Notebooks Filled
With an Outline of the Case.

A couple of weeks ago two Du-
buque newspaper men connected
with the Times-Journal visited De-
corah and while here they paid a
visit TO B. F. Kneeskern in the coun-
ty Jail and got an interview out Of
him on the Van Brocklin murders
with which he was charged. He was
found guilty of murder in the first
degree, and his counsel asked for
another trial and the court now has
this under consideration to be decid-
ed at the September term. They give
out the following:
"In what developed into one of
the most sensational murder cases
in the northeastern part of the
state, hundreds of people have journ-
neyed to the spot of the murder.
At the present time, the cabin is
locked, however, and nothing bu-
mar Fiuesuays or. business. al.a4 >-'v-
heTannz Boeckman transacted bust
ng eyes of visitors.
Sentiment in and about Castalia
,here Kneeskern was born and ! ]
aised is strongly for the accused
nan. However, other people
throughout the territory are con-
inced that he is guilty.
While the district court is de-
whether Kneeskern shall
ave another trial, the indicted man
its in his cell, writing book on
is impressions and drawing maps
f the territory where the murder
ook place. He is firm in his de-
Iial of guilt, maintaining that he
;nows nothing of the case.
At the present time he is the
,nly occupant of the Jail and has
,usied himself by making preEmi-
lary plans for the writing of a
,ook. Already several notebooks
nave been filled with an outline.
IN addition an elaborate map, show
ng every detail as brought out in |
he trial is being drawn by the ac-
,used man."

MILK WHAT IT CAN
AND CAN NOT DO.
Comparison of Gains by Underweight
Children in Public Schools of
Decorah in Seven Weeks.
GAIN 21 PER CENT
BY PUPILS GIVEN MILK
Biggest Gain Made by Child Who
Had Defective Tonsils and
Adenoids Removed.

How much have we a right To eX-
pect from milk? Have we any evil
dence of such magic in dt that its
consumption will reproduce healthy
body without respect to other dietary
habits, or to such factors as the
presence or absence of defects?
There can be little doubt that the
increase of milk drinking with, or
without a campaign is great health
gain, because in the average Ameri-
can dietary there is too little milk.
1t is an important factor of health.
1t will correct certain conditions
which have been caused by the
absence of food, principles contained
in the most available form in milk,
but this fact should not lead US to
expect the impossible.
The importance of consideration of
the whole dietary is shown in re-
cent report from Ames, Iowa, "Our
normal children have gained 112
per cent of the expected gain since
January first. The underweights who
have had nutrition instruction at
school, but have not had milk at
school, have made 1T per cent of
the expected gain. The underweights
who have had nutrition instruction
and milk at school, have made l43
per cent of the expected gain; those
who have had milk and instruction,
with the addition of orange juice at
noon, have made $50 per cent of the
expected gam"
Another reminder Of the close con-
nection between other factors in the
under nourished state of children, is
furnished by the records of the gen.
eral physical condition of 491 un-
derweights who were given a medi-
cal examination in lincoln, Illinois,
recently. Of the 491 underweight
children examined, only 10 were
without definite physical defects, de-
fective tonsils were found among
241; adenoids among rs; defective
teeth among 296, and symptoms of
evening. ''''''
Z. Ernest, Bergna anI..apdoMr-' 's'Ils-rij
mong one-ffth of these children,
1en, would we have a right to eX-
ect that proper food; let alone one
r1cle of food only would be ade-
uate to restore health. To under
AXE to remedy their condition by the
onsumption of one article of food
nly though that article of food is
dmittedly the best single one
nown, is to seek to move house
18th broom straw.
Comparison of the gains made by
he underweight children in the pub
c schools of Decorah, show that the
upils who took milk in school for
even weeks or more, gained Il per
ent more than those who did not
axe milk. The biggest gain was
made in the case of child who had
lad defective tonsils and adenoids
emoved, a few weeks previous 20
he beginning of the milk lunches
n school, and who took milk regu-
arly twice a day there.

THE EAGLES MEETING

Those who failed to hear Frank
E. Hering's address at the meet
ing held under the auspices of
Licking Aerie No. 3S7, Fraternal
Order of Eagles, in the high
school auditorium Wednesday
evening, missed an oratorical
treat, as Mr.. Herring is without
doubt one of the most eloquent,
fluent and forceful speakers who
has visited Newark for many
years.
Prior to the meeting Mr.. Her
ing, State Secretary f. L. Hyne-
man and other distinguished
members of the order, the city
officials and newspaper represent
atives were entertained at a
course dinner at the Warden
Hotel by the officers of Licking
Aerie, Attorney James M. Schal-
Ter acting G as toastmaster. Brief
remarks were made, but for lack
of time this part of the program
was necessarily abbreviated.
At the auditorium, which was
we'll filled, Mr.. Herring spoke for
two hours and a half, devoting
the first part of his address to the
worlds economic conditions and
the causes of the present financial
and business situations, during
which he quoted some startling
facts and figures. He closed with
a most eloquent and touching
argument in favor of the old age
pension for the securing of which
the great order of Eagles is de-
voting it's time and spending
thousands of dollars.
At the close of the meeting an
impromptu reception was tend
cred to Mr.. Herring by hundreds
of his hearers who desired to
congratulate him on his brilliant
address and wish him Gods speed
in his noble undertaking..
