Feeding and Need of Air
and Sleep.
CITIES DISEASE CAUSES

An important development in the nu-
triton work of the public schools, as
reported by the local Tuberculosis Asso-
citation, is the interest being shown in
a four-page folder primarily intended
for parents of undernourished and un-
derweight children. The first edition
of this folder, consisting of $4,000 copies,
Is about to be placed in the hands OF
school physicians and nurses, physical
training and domestic science teachers
and nutrition clinics workers, all or
whom are participating in the work of
The nutrition clinics in one way or an
other. The folders also are to be placed
i'll the hands of the teachers and mem-
hers of the Mother-Parcnt Teachers
Association and will be given to parents
IF the children weighed and measured
together with a weight card, showing
the individual child's approach to or
departure from standard weight for
height and age.
Table of Average Weights.
The folder contains a table of average
weights of children at various heights.
Particular attention is paid to the inn
portance OF the early correction of
sils and adenoids, eye trouble and dis
eased teeth. \ daily program is out
lined for the guidance of the parents
covering morning, afternoon and night
regime. Special stress is laid on proper
teeding, abundance of fresh air and the
need OF twelve hours sleep for children
from four to five years of age and at
least ten hours sleep for children OF
twelve and thirteen.
Children who have to be walked up
IN the morning, the folder states, are
hose who do not get sleep enough. This
IS a clear indication that they should
go to bed earlier.
How TO make an inadequate breakfast
adequate by few simple additions is
shown in a standard menu.
School Orders !, 300 Folders.
The Johnson-Powell School. the first
70 use the nutrition folders, has called
for 1900 Mrs. Hugh Hanna ard Mrs.
Joseph Sanders, members of the Parent
Teachers Association OF that school,
are to supervise the distribution of these
folders to the parents. Weighing and
measuring in the schools is on the in
crease. Some of the principals, how
ever, are badly handicapped in this
work by the absence of school scales,
due TO the lack of appropriation for this
important equipment.
The advance demand for this nutri-
lion folder has been so great that al
ready Il second edition OF 1000 copies
mas been ordered.
Sanctioned by Health officer.
The folder has received the official
sanction of DIR. William c. Fowler
health officer, and DR.. Joseph A. Muir
ply, chief medical and sanitary in
spector of schools. who have joined in
signing a letter addressed to the parents
commencing to their attention the rules
given in the health program outlined

tsined from Mrs. T.. r. Grant nutrition

HEROIC CSAILOR SAVESLIVES OF
 ENTIRE CREW
Seaman of Santa Rita Makes Brave Dash
 From Vessel
SWIMS ASHORE WITH ROPE
Breasts the Icy Waves Among Rocks to Save
 His Comrades

SEATTLE, Feb. 16.-Through the one of the crew of the steamer Santa Rita, which went ashore yesterday on a reef on the west coast of Van couver Island during the terrific gale that has lashed the coast for two days, the entire crew of the Santa Rita are alive today. The Santa Rita, which had rushed to the aid of the steamship Nika reported rudderless and drifting off Umatila Reef, went on the rocks yesterday at what Captain Rolstad, of the Rita, thought was Tatoosh Island, and so reported yesterday afternoon to the Estavan radio station. Caught on a rocky ledge and listed far to starboard, the vessel began breaking up rapidly, several holes in her hull having flooded the engine room. The lives of the crew were in jeopardy when Hautopp, with a rope tied about him leaped into the foaming sea and made for shore. The waves were beating wildly against the rocks, the water was icy cold. But the nervy sailor, after a heart-breaking fight, reached the land. Here he made fast the rope he had brought, and a breeches- buoy was rigged up. By means of the buoy the entire crew, one by one, reached the shore safely, the Santa Rita left behind a total wreck The castaways were sighted yesterday by the steamer Advance, which went in search of the Santa Rita on receipt of her distress call. They are reported to be camped on the beach near Carmanah Light with a fire and some tents.

STEESE SUCCEEDS MEARS ON RAILROAD
Commission Head M Command Of
 Combined Work

SEATTLE, Feb. 16.-As the result of plans which have been worked out between the Department of the In terior and the War Department, look ing to the combination of the duties of operating the Alaska Railroad with the construction of roads and trails ill the Territory, Colonel Mears, of the Alaska Engineering Commission, has been relieved of his duties, the order to take effect about May lst. A wire to this purport has been received by the Times from it's Washington spe- cial correspondent, who states that Colonel Steese, of the Alaska Road Commission has been directed to take over the duties of Colonel Mears. Col onel Mears, under whose supervision
 the Alaska Railroad has been com nleted. has been assigned to duty with the Engineers of the Ninth Area
 Corps. Speaking of the change of ad- ministration thus effected Secretary
 F0lI said yesterday, "Therc is nothing
 in the change except in matters Of ordinary routine, which is made with
 the desire to save money Asked re- garding the suggestion that Colonel Mears be permitted to remain on duty with the railroad for another year, Secretary Fall said His time has now expired. The positions should
 be co-ordinated so that the work of the two fields may go together. It is the duty of the Road Commission to build
 wagon roads and trails to all parts of the Territory, but while these are for military purposes there is no reason why at the same time they should not be tributary to the railroad and make traffic available" The conduct of the two activities will probably remain under one control until some dispOsi- tiOn is made of the railroad property by a com bination of the two enter nrises. By this arrangement the Gov ernment eliminates considerable over- head expense, with a saving of about $25,0O0 a year. Political observers who have been watching the develop ment of the situation in Alaska for several months, see in the change an initial move on the part of the Ad- ministration to obtain large appro- priation for wagon road construction in the Territory next year. Colonel Steese who has been in Washing ton for some time, is now endeavor- ing to have adopted a plan by which ten million dollars will be made avail able for this purpose This will be methods-by direct appropriation, or by having Alaska included under the provisions of the Federal Highway law. Under this plan $100,00O,000 will be available for road construction in the United States during the next two wears. Money from this fund is allot- ted to the various States proportion ately on the basis of three classifica- tions-one third according to popula- ton, one third according to the extent of roads already constructed, and one third according to area. From this fund Alaska, while receiving propor- tionately small amount on the first two bases, would be entitled to a large would probably be available for Alas kan roads and trails something like S1O,0OO,OO0 within the next two years.
