HEREDlTY TALk1BY
IDAHO ZO0L0GIST

I DR.. j. e. SWOdSedalek professor of
zoology at the University of Idaho
recently gave very interesting lee
ture at meeting of the Kiwanis club
at Lewiston, explaining the mechan-
ism of heredity and the fallacy of the
! belief in the inheritance of acquired
characters and of the prenatal inf1u-
ences
DR.. Wodsedalek said that there were
two fundamental ways in which to
bring about human betterment. namely
by improving the individual and by
improving the race. The first method
consists in making the best of what
ever heritage has been received by
placing the individual in the most
favorable environment and developing
his capacities to the utmost through
education. Included under this head
might be mentioned the controlling
of disease, improvement of sanitation,
etc.
Governed By Three Factors.
Three factors" DR.. Wodsedalek
said determine the characteristics
of an individual: environment, re-
Spouse and heritage. 1t may be said
that an individual is the result of the
of these three factors
The absnce of sufficient response or
training even when environment is
suitable and the endowment of herit-
age is ample will result in an in
1ividual who falls short Of his posi-
bilities, while no amount of response

JUSTICE PROMPTLY
ADMINISTERED.

The recent execution in England OF
Mrs. Thompson and Bywaters, con-
victed of murder, furnishes an excel
lent example of prompt admlnlstra-
ton of Justice, which is somewhat in
contrast to the progress made IN some
cases in this country. The murder
was committed on October a and
Just 81 days later the murderers paid
the penalty with their lives, after
having been given every right that
the law allows.
The writer is not strong for capital
punishment, but that has nothing to
do with the case, as the prompt ter
mination of the case would have been
the same, no matter what the form
of punishment was The pair had
been tried and found guilty by a
jury They had taken an appeal and
the appellate court had heard the
case and affirmed the judgment of
the lower court. Then they had ap-
pealed to the British home office, and
finally to the king himself, all of
which the British law permits. In
fact, the murderers were granted
evry right which they would have had
under the laws of America, with the
difference that needless delays were
eliminated Sentence was pronounced
when the verdict was returned.
There are two objects in admins
tering punishment-the reform Of the
criminal so that he may be taught
never to repeat the offense, and the
example to others who may be similar
Iy inclined. In the case of capital
the latter object is the
only one, and that is lost and the pur-
pose of the law defeated, if too long
a time is permitted to elapse between
the murder and the execution OF the {

Flush Your Kidneys Occasionally
by Drinking Quarts of
Good Water.

No man or woman can make a mis-
take by flushing the kidneys occasion
ally, says a well-known authority.
Too much rich food creates acids
which clog the kidney pores so that
they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood. Then you get sick. Rheu-
matism, headaches, liver trouble, ner-
vousness, constipation, dizziness,
sleeplessness, bladder disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys.

badly as responsible as anything else
for the lynching in this country and
for open defiance of our laws. Every
man should be granted every right
that the law provides, but action
should be prompt and the time be-

not be SO long that the public has
forgotten what it was all about and
the lesson on the criminally inclined

WOULD SIMPLIFY GOVERNMENT.
There is but one way in which the
tax burden in this state can ever be
materially reduced says a Washing
ton newspaper, and that is long and
roundabout way which may or may
not lead to success. That is by re-
vising the state constitution and pro-
viding for forms of government simp-
Ter than those we have now in which
authority to cut public activities and
expenses down may be definitely
lodged somewhere and in which re-
sponsibility for carrying out the pub
lie will may be definitely fixed.
Taxes never go down. They always
go up. The reason is simple and
plain. Authority and responsibility
Of the public officials we choose are
everywhere limited by unwise di-
vision. The state ought to have a
new constitution and convention for
hat puI,ose ought to be called. Such
l convention might not give us a
better constitution than we have and |
he people might not accept new
me if they had the chance, but never
heless, it is the only hope for the
