All persons contemplating matri-
mony would be required to pass an
examination in child psychology be-
fore they would be granted marriage
license under a law advocated by the
Rev H. L. Nelson, pastor of the Pot
win Presbyterian church The pastor
supported this idea by the declaration
that today mothers-those rearing
small children-are reading more
books on how to raise poultry and on
fashions in dress, than they are on
how to raise children Furthermore,
4le asserted, there are a. great many
more books published on how to raise
poultry and on fashions, than there
are pertaining to the promotion of
health, character and proper disciplin-
ing of children.
The pastor, who last summer cele-
brated his silver wedding anniversary
some good advice to his audience.
The sermon was one of a series he is
giving on home life Included in the
list of pointers were:
If parents have not taught their
children to obey before they reach
the age of IL or Il years. thev should
not expect to be able to train them
to obey after those ages have been
attained.
The most important period in a
child's life to teach obedience is be-
fore the child is a year old.
Proper disciplining of a child
should require a minimum use of
physical punishment.
A parent should never punish a
child when the former is under a
spell of anger.
Don't threaten a child with punish
monitor the child soon learns that
the threat will not be carried out.
Never box a child's ears.
The crucial period of a child's life
is from II to IS years. when new
forces manifest themselves.
Fathers should make pals of their
sons; mothers companions of their
daughters, SO the children feel free
to make them their confidants, rather
than some one else.
To make pals of their children,
fathers and mothers should engage
with them in pastimes the children
enjoy most.
There is no time for an evening at
cards and clubs for parents who have
young children, lacking the compan-
ionship of their parents.
Grandmothers and grandfathers to-
day should not attempt to dictate how
their grandchildren should be dis
ciplined.
The Rev. Mr.. Nelson declared for
some reason-possibly because of the
excitement of the war period or be-
cause of the fast pace" of the present
day-children today are more nervous
than thew were a genera ton ago.

WORRY ABOUT GAS
Explosions in Sewer Cause City
to Investigate.
Neither Source of Gas Nor
Ignition Discovered.

The city engineer has been instruct
ed to communicate with the chemistry
department of the state university to
find out what would be the cost of
making exhaustice tests of gas in the
sewer on Crane street.
There have been no less than five
explosions in the sewer recently. Gas
gathers there continually and is peri
odically ignited from some unknown
source The street department has
been put to the expedient of replacing
the solid cast iron manhole cover over
the catch basin, with an open cover,
since the solid ones have been blown
from their places, with accompanying
danger to passersby.
Gas Company Interested
The nature of the gas cannot be de-
termined. The gas company has made
a long seriess of excavations to find
out if it is possible that the gas leaks
from their mains. 1t has not yet been
discovered what ignites the mixture
When the explosions occur water is
forced back thru the sewer traps in
buildings for blocks around.
The city commissioners fear that
serious damage will be caused if the
explosions continue. 1t is their in
tention to have the gas tested and its
nature determined, so that the source
NAV be discovered if possible.

ASK FOR AN INJUNCTION
Would Prevent Charter Board From
Interfering With Investment Firm.

An application for an injunction to
prevent the state charter board from
interfering with the sale of its invest
rnent certificates in Kansas has been
filed in the Shawnee county district
court by the Liberty Investment cor
poration of Kansas City, Kan.
The company alleges that on April
26 the charter board made an order
denying it the privilege of selling the
investment certificates on the ground
that the company's capital stock was
not sufficient; that it's plan of bust
ness was unfair and unequitable and
that the plan of business does not
adequately secure the investors
against unlawful dissipation or mis-
application of the funds of the bust
ness.
The company asks the injunction
on the ground that the order is I'M
Just unreasonable and discriminatory
and alleges that other companies are
selling similar stock under a similar
charter

Careless Shampooing
Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkaI.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than anything else you can use.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsi-
fled in a cup or glass with a little
warm water is sufficient to cleanse the
hair and scalp thoroly. Simply moisten
the hair with water. and rub it in. 1t
makes an abundance of rich creamy
lather, which rinses out easily, remov-
ing every particle of dust, dirt, dan
druff and excess oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly. and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky,
bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsified' cocoanut oil
shampoo at any pharmacys it's very
cheap, and a few ounces viii supply
every member of the family for
months. Be sure your druggist gives
you Mulsified.-Adv.

THE WATERS OF KANSAS
Kansas Commission Publishes Book
Containing Stream Flow Data.

Kansas Commission Publishes Book
Containing Stream Flow Data
It is no longer necessary to guess at
the quantity of water passing our cities
and threatening our lives and our
property during periods of extreme
floods. The Kansas water mission,
cooperating with the U. s geological
survey, has spent years of labor col
lecting data that will enable them to
accurately determine the amount of
water flowing in our principal streams
and to forecast, days in advance. the
probable height to which the rivers
will rise at various points.
The data upon which this important
work is based have recently been pub
Hshed in book form by the Kansas
water commission. This book contains
all the available stream flow data that
have been collected in Kansas.
Important engineering questions
arising from problems such as city
water supply, sewage disposal, dams
for any purpose, flood protection, in
duStrial plants, power plants and many
others, must have such data as con-
tanned in this book before they can be
properly solved
water commission has used every re-
source in obtaining all the data that
have been possible with the available
appropriation. They have been espe-
clalIy fortunate IN DelnB aDle 10 secure
the cooperation of the u S. geological
survey, since the federal government
furnishes an amount of money ap-
proximately equal to the state appro-
preparation. All data are collected and
compiled for publication under the
direction of an engineer from the U.
S. geological survey, who has had wide
experience in work of this nature.
Stream flow measuring stations are
maintained at twenty-three points in
the state and this number is to be in
creased to thirty as soon as possible.

T4E excessive rains of the past
4 month have seriously retarded
farming operations. AS soon as field
works. possible farmers will be busy
night and day preparing the ground
and seeding the land that they may
maintain an adequate food supply
for the nation. This year, for the
farmer, time is an imperative factor.
More than 40, 900 tractors are owned

overhauled, fabricated, and put in
condition to perform essential labor,
for which horse power would be
totally inadequate.
The number of horse hours per day
is limited by the strength of the
horse, while the number of motor
hours per day is limited only by the
