SERIOUS FORD N1sHAP


Dudley shively South Bends ro-
tUnd attorney. was waiting the othe-
morning for the O'Clock car that
takes him resularly 20 his law offices
in the Farmers Trust building.
sweltering IN his we'll known Palm
Beach suit. which was built for him
by the South Bend Tent and Awning
company.
Eight o'clock came but no stree:
car. And about this time an ac-
quaintance came ambllng down the
street in Ford roadster with win
ter top. The man in the Ford slowed
down and moved over and sat on the
door on the right hand side 10 make
room for Mr.. Shlvely
Our rotund attorney friend. with a
glad smile. sprang for the Ford. but
he neglected TO take into considera-
ton the limitations Of a Ford road

IN the door OF the roadster. and thus
far Mr.. Shively's friends have been
unable 20 remove him. An s o 6
call has been sent out for HoudinI.
and Il he can't do anything. Larry
Lane. and his axe squad Will pro-
badly nave 10 chop the Ford to
pieces TO liberate Mr.. Shively
Thus far. the predicament has
caused Mr.. Shively little embarass-
ment. The family is feeding him
regularly and he can do a few little
chores around the house that have
TO be done; but the attorney has a
case in court on Monday and he has
TO be untangled from this machine
before then. as Mr.. Shively would
naturally feel a little dif1dent about
going into an august court OF law
with a winter Ford top hanging on
him. It looks like a mighty serious
matterl

YOUR HEALTH By ca Dr.: R; S

the disease. and which should be en-
Dloyed II the Schick test indicates
the necessity. If they are uniformly
used, these two measures promise to
rid US of this fearful disease within
few years.
To my mind the most striking evil
dence OF progress in public health is
the decrease in the death rate among
children. Up to 1891 deaths of chill
dren under five years of age in many
communities averaged about one
hundred per thousand. This means
that about 10 per cent of the chill
dren died before they were five years
Of age. Last year the death rate
among children under FIVE years OF
age was reduced TO twenty-four per
thousand.
The death rate among new born
infants used to be still worse. For
instance. in 1891. one child out of
every four born IN New York City
died during the first year. The rate
was PAL per thousand births. Last
year the rate was II per thousand,
a saving of 1000 babies In one year.
Malaria was the cause OF a great
many deaths fifty years ago. Today
we need not have a case of malaria
unless it is imported. This POSSIBLE
ity is the result Of the discovery that
malaria IS carried by certain types
of mosQuitos-the anopheles-and
by the practical application OF this
knowledge. To accomplish this.
miles Of bitches have been dug and
hundreds OF thousands of acres Of
marsh land have been drained.
These are a few OF the outstand-
ing examples Of what has been &C
compHshed in the prevention Of i'll
ness and death.
l. is a noble record, isn't Il?

And your blinded eyes will see
No just cause why this should be;
But the passing years Will show
Wisely was It ordered so.
Hold your faith and bear the pain
Questioning your God Is vain.
None Of us has power 10 know
Who should stay and who should go
Hold this everlasting truth
Heaven has need Of lovely youth.
Think Of this when you are tried:
If the wretched only died,
Then would death to US be sent
Always as a punishment;
But the passing from the earth
Is more beautiful than birth.

QUESTIONING.


You shall wonder as you meet
Drunkards Keeling down the street,
Helpless cripples and the blind,
Human wrecks Of every kind
Living on from day 10 day,
Why your loved one couldn't stay.
These are thoughts which always
come
When the heart with grief IS numb.
Why" the anguished mother cries.
With the tears still in her eyes,
Must my baby go away
And some sinful creature stay?"
Thus rebellious In your grief.
