ENVY TIE HEALTH ADDICT

A new addict has made his advent
in the schools Of America, but far
from causing his preceptors any grave
concern. he is getting their hclp tc'
form his habit-because il is a good
one.
The Health addict is the youngster
referred to, and although the word
"he" is used for convenience, the habit
INST confined to boys-not by a long
shot Girls have acquired it, too, and
everybody is doing splendidly, thank
you, in the indulgence.
Under the tutelage of the American
Child Health Association, Of which
Herbert Hoover is president, the chill
dren Of America are learning how to
build up their bodies by eating the
proper food, drinking milk, taking
plenty of exercise and sleep. This
organization, which is the combined
American Child Hygiene Association
and the Child Health Organization Of
America, has begun its work of con-
serving the children of the country,
and in order to obtain the best re-
suits in the effort has made the study
of health a game, rather than a task.
Hence its popularity.
Boys and girls no longer look with
horror upon health lessons, for the
simple reason that they are not re-
quired to study uninteresting scien-
tific books and listen to intermina-
bic lectures by master minds. Instead
the lesson in health is being present
ed to them in attractive form and the
enthusiasm with which they have en-
tered into the game speaks we'll fol
future generations. Instead of tell
ing boys and girls to drink milk be-
cause of its high nutrative value, the
Associations representative are sug-
gesting that it be served to the chill
dren in attractive form, via small
bottle with straw inserted through
the cover. Who wouldn's drink milk
J that way?
Boys are not told to eat lots of veg.
etables simply because of their fooC
value. They are urged to do this
also because thereby they may become
strong and robust and perhaps as
great athletes as Charlie Paddock OF
Babe Ruth and that proves an incen
tive too great to be ignored Attrac
tive charts are arranged and lecture!
are delivered by men and women who
understand children and deliver theil
messages in simple language, will
good stories distributed through then
with enough frequency to grasp tn,
attention.
The result has been beyond expec
tation and augurs We'll for the flu
ture of the race Americans VIII,
think can not help but support tn
work Of this organization is doing t,
reduce the death ra>e among chill
dren ard to eradicate u1dernourish
merit.

New Sales Record.

With $1,000 Ford cars sold at retail in
February a new record for the shortest
month In the year has been established.
February sales exceeded those of January
by more than is, 900 and marked the 18th
month in which Ford sales have topped
the 100000 line.
This sales record bears out predictions
made at the opening Of the year that an
acute sabotage IN Ford cars is certain
and this shortage is expected to be felt
within the next two months with the in
creased volume of car buying which is
always attendant upon the spring months
Even the high production schedule set
at the Ford Motor Company's factory at
Detroit. which will reach 5000 cars and
trucks day about April l, will be unable
to meet the apparent demand for Ford
products.
Anticipating great increase in the de-
mand for Ford cars during the present
year the factory laid plans for increasing
production to the 5000 car day sched-
ule and since January LIST had been con-
stantly speeding up manufacture to reach
this figure. Demand so fer has been of
such great proportions as to absorb nearly
all production. and stocks in hands of
dealers are at present the lowest they
have been in months.
February sales of 116.080 cars were
made in the face of unfavorable weather
conditions in many sections of the coun-
try which tied up freight traffic and pre-
vented many deliveries. This was par
ticularly true throughout the Northwest,
the northern tier Of States and in New
England. In California. too. cold weather
during a part Of the month had its effect
upon car sales. Yet with even these un-
favorable conditions. the February sales
topped those of January by is per cent
and set new high record for mid-winter
selling.
With February the eleventh month in
which Ford car sales have gone over the
100, 900. the total for this period is close
to 100000 cars.
Peak car sales usually are reached dur
ine the summer months with drops In the
fall and winter. This feature of automo-
bile absorption by the buying public has
been completely changed during the last few
months through the activities Of the Ford
dealer organization which has raised the
peal" line to include every month in the
year.

west Of the island continent and the
wide plains in the center may be
brought under cultivation.
The principal vegetable productions
of the country are Its evergreen trees,
which furnish valuable timber, and its
pasturage, Vegetable products in
clude eucalyptus, red gum, blue gum,
palm, stringy bark, iron bark, acacia,
Jarrah, karri, salt bush, kangaroo
grass; maize, wheat, potatoes, hay,
barley, oats; bananas, grapes and
other fruits, and tobacco, sugarcane
and cotton. The wine industry is an
Important one. Animals raised are
chiefly sheep (Australia being the
worlds greatest wOol-produclng coun-
try, and cattle (cattle rearing having
developed to large extent lately be-
cause Of the spread of the frozen-meat
trade). Mineral resources include
gold. silver. copper, iron, tin, anti.

SoUNDLY BEATEN BY INDIANS
Expedition Under Captain LoVswell
Met With Disaster In the
Spring Of t726.

OF all the combats in Maine be-
tween the whites and Indians, the
best known was "Lovewell's fight" In
the spring Of 172b Captain Lovewell
and 40 volunteers started from Dun
stable, Mass, to hunt Indians about
the headquarters Of the Saco. They
did this partly because the Indians
were q menace to the settlements. and
partly to secure the liberal bounty
which had been promised for every
Indian scalp.
On the night of May Lovewsn and
his men camped beside what is known
as Lovewell's pond. In Fryeburg,
Maine, only two miles from Pigwacket,
the principal village of the Indians Of
that region. Early the next morning.
they killed an Indian, and not long
afterward were attacked by three
times their number. The fight con-
tlnued until dusk, when Lovewell and
his band began to retreat. Only nine
were uninJured. Some Of them died
on the way to the gettlements, and
those who finally arrived home were
half starved.

While crossing the bay from Eng
liah harbor, Newfoundland, to For
tune. about twenty-five miles, an 49,
ton boat was becalmed about ten
miles from shore. Hearing several
splashes, the owner went forward and
looking over saw a blue shark about
ten feet long. He writes that ne
picked up a large iron hook, and
tying a stout piece Of rope to It he
fastened the other end to the mast.
He then put piece Of salt pork on
the hook and dropped It over to the
shark. No sooner was II in the water
than the Ash grabbed 1t and swan
swiftly away. The rope was Stacked
out about ten fathoms, brought up
with a jerk and the boat commenced
to move. The shark came to the sur
face several times but continued
straight ahead, a little out Of the
course The boat was towed eight
miles when strong breeze sprang up
and 1t began to go faster than the fish.
The shark was hauled alongside and
in payment for the tow was allowed
its liberty, the rope being cut close to
its mouth.-Montreal Family Herald.

In Memorian.

In sad but loving remembrance OF our
dear mother. Nancy Jane Hamilton. who
departed this life February LIST, 1928.
A precious one from US has gone.
A voice we loved Is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home.
Which never can be filed.
It's hard. we know to give thee up.
But we must bear the pain.
II seems to me hear thy voice
In memoryis sweet refrain.
II was an early morning hour.
One month ago today.
The angel Of death came down to earth
And took Our dear mother away.
Have you mother. love her well.
While she Is spared on earth.
Wait not till death shall call her home.
To know her precious worth.
By her loving children.

Floral Chlmaras.

There are orchids Of the tropics
which exceed in strangeness Of form
and splendor Of color anything pro-
ducsd In cOnservatorles. Among the
most remarkable OF these plants are
those belonging to the genus masde-
vallla. One species closely initiates
the trunk of an elephant and Is named
accordingly, masdevallia elephanti-
ceps. Another looks like a flying pig
con. The species to which the name
"chimera" is specially applied is very
extraordinary. With what resembles
two slender legs and a nail-like trunk
appraised from its head. the flower
startles the beholder with Its resem-
blance to some fantastic and mon
strous insect. The resemblance Of
these flowers to animals Is so exact
that even birds are sometimes de-
ceived by them.
