IS YOUR CHILD INA
HEALTHY CONDITION

Health has usually been taken for
granted in America. There has been
progress in curing disease but neg
lect in promoting health. The ma
tion has been aroused from its COM
placent attitude. by certain events OF
young men were rejected from the
army for physical unfitness. and in
yestigations have shown that at least
one-half of all our school children
have serious physical handicaps,
which retard their development.
one-third are also found to be def
initely undernourished.
There are certain standards of
growth and development by which
child should measure up. Under
weight. malnutrition, and physical
! handicaps have been found among
all classes of children to prevent
them from reaching these standards.
knowledge OF thes facts have
aroused the whole country to action
in the promotion of health as never
before. This is necessarily matter
of education, training in health
habits and health teaching is becom-
ing a part of every school curricu
lum.
With the idea ofSshowing what car
be done through health education
experiments have been carried on II
all of the large sections. The result:
of these experiments have been mos
encouraging. Though many of thu
children have been as much as 80 t,
40 per cent underweight for thei
height, they have been brought up I,
normal health and vigor in surpris
ingly short time. These gains hav
been made in the homes with no ad

Georges Satisfied
With Europe

Once more the story that Georges
Carpenter does not look with favor
upon another visit to America. The
latest is that the Frenchman objects
to the size of American rings and
the weight of the gloves. Each is a
poor excuse. Anybody can see that
Carpenter breads a meeting with
Tom Gibbons, and prefers set-ups in
Europe.
Say what you will Carpenter had
the heart taken out of him by Jack
Dempsey, and furthermore many
stick to the story that the champions
punches left him in bad physical
shape. He can get by with the likes
of George Cook, but the tough babies
no longer are to his fancy.
There is now doubt that there will
be a return match with Dempsey in
Europe. If Carpenter SHES at meet.
ing Gibbons he will want no part OF
the champion again.

Wedge, as he was known in Wisconsin
lumber camps and in boxing circles
some years ago when he was quite
scrapper, travelled halfway across the
continent in freight cars and Gala
booses for the purpose of entering the
Harvard graduate school of educa-
ton, only to find out when he got
there that his qualifications were not
considered sufficient for admission at
this time.
Wedge, who is forty years old and
graduate of the University of Ari-
zona, left no address so that the Har-
ward authorities had no way of reach
ing him by telegraph or mail advising
