is. She was given a health card on
which to record her child's health
habits for a week. The record was
to show the number of hours Of sleep
daily and a complete diet list, which
was to be filled out and used accord
ing to Instructions given by the home
demonstration agent. Other health
habits, such as deep breathing and
teeth brushing, were also to be re
corded.
Weekly Conferences Follow.
The demonstration was followed by
weekly conferences of the mothers of
the underweight children with the doc
tor, nurse, and home demonstration
agent, at which the health record for
the week was examined, the weekly
weights taken, and additional instruc
tion and advice given the parents. AS
a result almost every mother reported
intelligent interest on the part of the
children in the food work.
1--WE never sit down to the table but
that the question arises as to wheth
er or not we are having the right
things to eat" said one mother in
speaking of the excellent results
achieved through this piece of nu-
triton work.

 In respone, Ali intonate exquisite ly:

 Should such an incident occur there could only be one ending. It would be a good scrap while it lasted. George Bernard Shaw says it is possible any one speaking with an Oxford accent might possibly get knocked down in a mining village. That would certanly happen to Ali Perkins if he tried it in Covent Garden, where the democratic code is adhered to most strictly.
 Yet Professor Jones is hopeful. He believes that English people in all parts of the empire and all English speaking people outside would be brought closer together if there were common standard of pronunciation

HAWAII AFTER FEDERAL
 VOCATIONAL AID MONEY

HONOLULU, Dec. 29.-Federal ap- propriation of s3O,oOo for vocational education in Hawaii may be obtained through an organized attempt on the part of civic bodies here, according to report of F. A.

This could be obtained without ques- tion, Gloves says, if q petition were made for it by 1926. The Honolulu Chamber of Commerce, the Rotary Club, the Americar. Legion and sev- eral other civic bodies already have passed resolutions calling for action.

CIVILIZATION IS GOING
 BACKWARD, BELIEVES
 NOTED SOCIOLOCIST

seem to lie rather in the moral ard political than in the economic sphere.
 In the first instance they are due to the fact that the temper engen- dered by the Great War has never yielded, as one might have expected it would yield, to a more peaceful frame of mind and desire for com mon cooperation in the repair of damages.
 War No Cure
 On the contrary, war has proved that it is not purge of any evil passion; it has deepened suspicious and animosities and the belief in violence and violent methods.
 The result of this violence is that people are living in fear and anx- iety. The old security, the sense of settled order and of constitutional principles which no party would touch, has largely gone and the basis for peaceful economic cooperation with 1t.
 The first thing to do is to endeavor after a genuine peace-a peace of the spirit and not merely of the letter.
 In substance, if not in form, the Versailles Treaty has to be revised. Russia has to be admitted to the comity of nations.
 There is a definite school of opin- ion which, regardless of conse- quences, is all for national, racial, class ascendancy and is prepared for any degree of violence in the ex- ecution of it's aims and completely reckless of the probabilities of ulti- mate disaster.
 It is with the greatest apprehen- sion that any student outside the political world must have witnessed the growing influence of. this re- actionary body. If it should come to dominate in the counsels of Eng land it is difficult to see what mod erating force would remain.
 After all, the historic part of Eng land has been the moderator and, to some extent, the mediator in Flu roje It was so in 1915 and the main hope for Europe is that it should be so again in 1923

BRITONS WOULD STANDARDIzE
 ACCENTS

LONDON, Dec 29.--A plea is going abroad for standardized English pro- nounciation. In this country man is judged by his accent. There is no surer test of caste than accent, and all the democrats here who object to the caste system believe that the only true remedy for the inequality of all classes is to do away with it's most distinguishing sign-the accent.
 There never has been pronunci- ation common to all England except the private college pronunciation, and that is common to all those wealthy enough to attend the private school.
 According to Professor Jones, who is head of the department of phonet- ics at the London University, there is no accent so uniform as the private college accent.
 'It is the only pronunciation com- mon to all parts of the country. It is even used by the Scotch aristocarcy, yet the Glasgow man talks about the accent of his aristocratic countryman as an English dialect
 Australian English is different again, while American English is un- like any English spoken in Great Brit ain. Moreover, a London elementary schoolboy might not be able to under stand another elementary schoolboy from Edinburgh or Newcastle-on- Tyne; each speaks the local dialect with the local intonation."
 Professor Jones believes that a common accent can be taught through out the country by means of phonet- ics, which is simply the sciences Of the formation of speech sounds. Any accent can be acquired. By diligent study a Covent Garden porter-who speaks the most representative and fruitiest of cockney-could be made to mince his words, trill his "r's,' aspirate and intonate like a young lordling from Oxford University,
 But Heaven help him if he tried it unsuspectingly on his colleagues! Imagine Ali Perkins, with his newly acquired Oxford accent, sailing gently through the avenues of costers' bar rows in Covent Garden and meeting his friend, Airy 'Awkins, struggling

By DR. L. r. HoeHoUsE


 LONDON, Dec. 29.-We are face to face, all of us, with problem de- manding the fullest attention if we are to escape consequences as serious as to be incalculable We are going through period comparable in many respects, I think, to the Roman Elm pire in the century after Christ.
 It is a period in which undoubtedly we have to face the possibility of one nation after another going back to grass.
 No pessimistic attitude of mind, however, induces me to accept Mir. H. c. Wells views on the danger that exists, for I have never been inn pressed with peremiads about the decay of our civilization. I have al- ways thought that at bottom our civilization was healthy. Eugenic complains have always appeared par ticu,arly irrational. The main stock Of the peoples in this and other countries is virile in the extreme and abundantly capable of all the funda- mental virtues, as the experience of the war amply showed.
 F Disasrees With Wells
 Nor is my agreement with MT. Wells on this subject based on any readiness to accept prophecy of dis aster. I do not think now it is a matter for prophecy at all. Some considerable portions of Eastern and Central Europe are palpably retro grading before our eyes.
 The urban life characteristic of civilization is diminishing, if not even breaking up, and these coun- tries are reverting to a kind of peasant or agrarian status.
 The characteristic features of the situation in Eastern and Central Flu rope extend far beyond that area, in which we detect the actual dissolu- tion of the civilization we have known.
 From this we may fairly infer that the process of retrogression will con- tinue and will extend if no intelli- gent effort is made to understand and remove the causes. Those causes
