roses are in bloom in many places,

grape vines are beginning to show

cotton stalks in the fields are still

THE PASSING OF WEATHER FEAR

People are learning Things about weather. SO lar
scientists haven't been able to change it much but the
good sense of private individuals and physicians has
taught those who are willing to learn how may be
endured in its extreme phases More sensible cloth
ing winter or summer, greatly improved domestic
heating systems understanding of the uses OF fresh
air and exercise adjusted diets for cold hot days,
all help the wise ones to endure and even to enjoy
whatever the weather brings forth.
Other progress in weather wisdom is marked by
recognition of the fact that weather does not produce
disease Superstitions about dangerous night air or
cold air or rain as the of all sorts of human
ailments have been disproved by modern medicine.
PROMPT attention to getting oneself dry and warm
after prolonged exposure to nclement weather is
about all that's needed counteract any of its Ill et
fects and to prevent any lurking disease germs from
starting their nefarious work.
1t is only left now for one to teach the
weather grumber to be philosophical about the chang
ing seasons and their eccentricities

FLYING MAP-MAKERS

ANY one looking for something new in the way OF
occupation might try being commercial aviator. One
of the things the commercial aviator does to make
maps as army fliers did during the war
Such as map has recently been completed for the

aero-map ever made. 1t measures 10 feet by eight
and is a composite of 173 exposures and ATS prints
All the sections of the map were taken from an eeva
tion of about three miles 1t required nine months
in the making
The area covered is about 70 square miles, nclud-
ing all of the city, part of San Francisco bay, the

HONORS FOR CROWN PRINCE

So His Royal Highness Albert Edward, Prince OF
Wales comes into new honor. No less body than
the National Institute of Social Dancing, assembled
in New York has voted him supremacy IN field
where countless thousands have striven in vain to
reach the top. The Institute names a new dance IN
his honor, calling it "The Prince of Wales Dance,
and sends the Prince the following message:
"It is our unanimous vote that your exceliency
deserves first place among the dancers of the world
by reason of which position find 1t only befttlng
that your excellency be first to learn the steps. ,
No doubt H. R. H. ought to be tickled to death
at this new dignity thrust upon him. He ought to be
practising those new steps right now in front of the'
tall mirrors in the royal palace with an obllgng
American dancing master to help him.
But is he? Royalty is notoriously ungrateful, and
it NAV be that Albert Edward, with all his repu-
tation as social ion would rather be in India shoot
ing tigers than cavorting ballroom floor to
advertise an American dance For in spite of his
small stature and boyish looks, the Crown Prince has
a reputation for being what Americans like to call

UNORGANTZED CHINA

China is all in confusion again, with two civil wars
going at once, top of her bandit troubles, and no
occidental mind can make head tail of the situation
All of which emphasizes more the foolish
ness of any present fear of the yellow peril at least
as far as China is concerned. What does it matter
that there are 40O000OOO people there if those 400
100000 will not work together for any purpose and
are wholly unable to function politically military
as a notion?
Japan though small, is infinitely greater, be-
cause the Japanese organized. They may concev-
ably organize the Chinese some time, and WELD them
for a single purpose, though it is doubtful whether
any other race can do for the Chinese what they cannot
do for themselves. Japan might go to pieces in the
effort
Nothing much is accomplished anywhere, in this
modern Wofd, without organization. Western
tons all know that, far as they concerned
orally. AS group, they have it still to learn.
