SOCIAL CENTER CELE-
BRATES PURIM

The Lower Town Social Center
celebrated Purim on Sunday af-
ternoon at the Royal Arcanum
Hall. Almost 200 children were
present. Mr.. David Goldstein, of
the Minneapolis Talmud Torah
Alumni, gave a most delightful
dramatic description of the events
which characterize the celebration
of Purim. Mr.. David Nahinsky
delighted the children with his
Xylophone numbers, and Miss
Helen Cunody was charming in
her solo dancing. In addition to
this, there were songs by Sarah
Devine, dance by Miss Nettie
Greenberg's Gymnasium Class,
violin solo by Morris Steinman,
and some fine whistling by Abra-
ham Doran, who initiated various
birds. The program closed with
community singing, which was
performed with much enthusiasm,
followed by refreshments.

Physical Standard
For Children

Washington, Jan.-The U. S. health
service has for long time been occu-
pied in various parts of the country in
an investigation of physical standards
for children.
Before relief can be fairly applied
to children it is necessary to know
whether or not particular child needs
it. Of course. many children show
their need plainly, but others whose
need is even greater may not show it
to casual inspection until it is too late
wholly to prevent the consequences.
The common test of child's health
development, and about the only test
that can readily be applied to children
in mass, is to ascertain by some
standard table of age-weights pre-
pared for the purpose, whether or not
they weigh as much as they should at
their age. If the child is 10 per cent
or more under standard it is consid-
cred to be unaer nourished, and is
treated accordingly.
This, however, may or may not be
the case, for the standard tables are
largely approximations Ncverthe-
less they serve useful purpose, pend

ing the establishment Of more accurate
and scientific standards, by calling at
tention to individual! children ard
causing a more careful examination
TO determine whether the sue standard
weight is due to remediable cause.
Some Of the age-weight standards
used in the United States are merely
averages Of all classes of children, in
GLIDING with the well those who have
hampcring physical defects and those
who are actually undernourished.
They probably never did apply to all
parts of the United States, and quite
possibly they no longer apply even to
the particular part for which they
we're originally devised.
Immigration may have worked
great alteration in the population:
the region may have changed from
agricultural to Industrial; or other
changes may have occurred.
The population of the United States
is very varied. 1t comprises lanky

it lives under many different climatic
conditions. wet or dry, cold or hot:
and it lives on diets that in one section
depend largely on meat, in another on
seafood. in a third on corn meal and
pork. All these conditions ar" more
or less local and all tend to produce
children whose physique conforms to a
local and not to a general standard.
In view of this the public health
service is making studies Of the phys
zeal DEVELOPMENT of normal children
in different States, and is accumulat-

a possible Though unlikely general
standard, or for a number Of stand

homogeneous parts of the country and
may indicate, far more accurately
than any existing standard, the pny,-

These studies comprise the making
Of physical measurements OF all chill

to race, sex, age, habitat Getty, or
country, and ancestry (nat'Ve born

of foreipn-horn parents, or foreign

data obtained should help to determine

Your Stomach, Kidneys, Heart and
Liver performs the same duties to-
day that they ever did when in
healthy condition. When they do not
work as unit, there is cause and
that cause you are often to blame for
yourself by taking into the system
drugs of which YOU know nothing
about. hoping to allay the miscries
that have caused YOU to become a
hopeless medicine fiend and life is a
burden to you due to taking a medi-
cine with a fancy name.
Why do not all manufacturers of
Proprietary Medicines publish their
formula and take into their contid-
ence the ignorant as well as the in
telligent masses who have been de-
ceived for the last century by taking
medicines which have caused untold
suffering? Think moment, and you
can recall several whom you know
that life has no charms for. Their
whole system is salivated by taking
drugs which ruined their digestive or
gans and caused them to be physical
wreck.
Tonall, the Universal Tonic and Sys-
tenn Builder, is the only proprietary
medicine on the market Of its kind,
which publishes the formula and gives
you full history of every root, herb
and bark contained therein, fourteen
in number, and what their medicinal
qualities are according to the stand
ard Pharmacopoeia of the United
States. These are plain facts and con-
not be disputed.
When you take Tonall YOU know
just what you are taking. There are
no habit-forming drugs or opiates used
in Tonall to cause momentary stimu-
lation and when the effects die off
YOU are worse off than before, Tonall
builds up the system by purifying and
enriehipg the blood. Strengthening
the nerves. adding tone and vitality
and causing you to eat and sleep, be.
cause you are taking natures owl
production intended to relieve the all
ments with which mankind suffers.
