1t is really too bad that our old
friend, Jimmy Lowell, who paid so
perfect a tribute to spring, didn't
live in Montana instead of Massa-
hcusetts. 1t is doubtful, however, if
he could have improved upon the
above stanza-in fact, he would have
been under the handicap of advanc-
ing the season a full two months and
of finding a word that would rhyme
with April-somewhat of a difficult
thing to do you know.
In Massachusetts, the itch to write
spring poetry and that uncomfortable
desire to get out behind the barn,
where the sun shines down, get out
the trusty old jack knife and white
on a soft pine stick and spit at an in
dustrious tumble bugs rolling their
own, doesn't really get severe until
along in June.
In Montana, on the other hand,
April is the month when we do our
spring whiting and revel in an
ecstacy Of spring fever that groups
the whole family over highly colored
seed catalogues, starts dad out into
the back yard with a hoe and shovel
and prompts ma to shoe everybody
out of the house for spring cleaning,

Measles

What is described as a mild cpl
demic of measles is prevalent at this
time. Measles is ordinarily so mild
a disease as well as SO common that
mothers + apt to pay little atten-
ton to it. Often a woman remarks
that she is glad a child has been ex-
posed to measles so that he can have
the disease and "have it over with"
1t is important to bear in mind, as
DR.. C. V. Vaughn points out in the
May issue of Hygeia, that measles is
much more serious for children under
six years of age than for older ones.
After the child is nine the attack is
usually light. Experience warns that
it is important to protect younger
children from this infection. With
older children the need of protection
is not nearly so great.
But there is another danger that
has to be guarded against. The
medical work in the army camps
showed that the boys who had measles
were liable to pneumonia. The pa
OAOlC WOuAu COuIC HlIIlSell HOC SICK.
would be careless, and then come
down with pneumonia. Of every
thousand men in the army who had
measles, DR.. Vaughn says, ''forty-
four had pneumonia and 10 died. Of
every thousand men in the army who
did not have measles IT had pneu-
monia and only two died" Evidently
the person who has just had measles
is especially susceptible to pneumonia
At a time of a measles epidemic
it is important to remember then to
keep young children from exposure
so far as possible, and to see that the
older children who have the disease
do not go out too soon and take cold.

ception and every excuse Nicholas
met the emergency when school time
came by giving away his breeches.
"a feller," said Nicholas later to
the truant officer, cant go to school
when he amt got no pants" and who
will deny that he said a mouthful
that time? Rarely indeed does a
new invention appear in a field so
well worked as that of the art of
truancy, but Nicholas is a rare per-
son. He has an originating mind and
should have all the credit due to a
.discoverer.
But when that is said, it must be
admitted that the double negative
and the outlawed verb in his emark
to the minion Of the law shows all
too clearly that Nicholas would have
done better had he retained his
knickers and kept his mind on the
language lessons. - Detroit Free

A Boy With a Mind

Nicholas Amaglio, aged ten, of
Chester, Pa, deserves a little niche
in any hall of fame that may here
after be erected to commemorate i'm
portant, interesting and ingenious
deeds of boyhood.
Nicholas, it appears, resembles all
normal boys of his age in that he is
occasionally seized with fits of re-
bellion when the school bell rings.
On such occasions he would fain give
dear teacher the go-by and occupy
himself with something other than
books. 1t is usual with boys in that
condition to be seized with strange,
indefinite ailments that cause their
heads to ache if they go in the d.
r~ection of the school, but disappear
Immediately in a game of marbles.
On other occasions, this aversion TO
school leads to what mechanistic bio
logists would call a negative tropism
which compells the boy to move auto
matically away from a school house
and towards vacant lots, railroad
yards, baseball grounds, or almost
any other place except home. Again
boys who are taken this way will
wander off and return at supper time
to report with innocent frankness that
they utterly forgot to go to school.
Then there are certain wicked boys
who merely run away from school
and lie about it.
Not to any of these classes does
Nicholas belong. Scoring all de-

NEW COMMENT ON OLD TOPICS
Men and RELIGION

A Philadelphia church, which ha
set 100 of its members at work round
ing up others and bringing them in
has sen out a questionable to Loo
men in every walk of life, in al
effort to ascertain what religion anc
the church mot that these things are
identical) mean in their lives.
Years ago lumberjacks challenged
a preacher to deliver a ermon on q
text of their choosing. He handed
them a Bible and they gave it back
presently, saying they found no verse
to their liking. They gave him in
stead this sentiment, "To hell with
the church,"
That is the attitude of some who
say they are through with the church,
church people and ministers. They
do not stop to reflect that the
churches, for all their heavenward
aspirations, are what human beings
make them. They keep talking about
what "they"-meaning everybody
else-instead of what 81" should do.
They hurl abuse at the church OBJ
jectively as a failure because it has
not prevented war, or reformed So
ciety, or brought on the millennium.
To this QUESTIONABLE in Philadel-
phia men responded: "Men are too
busy to care" 'The World wal ere
ated a careless Indifference" "The
church seems out of sympathy with
wage ~earners." "Theologians do not
interest the modern man."
These and similar answers repre-
sent objections that may be overcome
by those in earnest to breathe life
into any moribund social institution.
If the ashes are cold on the hearth,
fuel may be collected and a new fire
k;ndled. 1t helps nobody merely to
find fault and do nothing
The great need for the church will
keep the church alive. The world
here and there, from time to time,
has tried the experiment of getting
along without it and has found that
the spirit as well as the body craved
its daily bread. Church worship is
not religion, but its aim is to satisfy
the appetite of religion, and the in
dividual shortcomings of the mem
bers of the churches are to be set
down to their own private account,
not to the failure of the institution
as a whole.
A world without a religion would
a world of social chaos, and those
who decry the influence and activity
If churches are usually those who
wish to lead their lives with their
own will for all their law and all
heir gospel.-Philadelphia Public
ledger.
