Indianapolis.-It is 81 years since
Miss Luie Huff ceased to teach school,
Have her former pupils forgotten
her in that time? They have not.
Each year they gather for reunion
with their beloved teacher of long
ago. Nor do they forget her during
the year She received cards from 40
of them last Easter. Later, when,
from motives of economy, she resolved
to discontinue her telephone, old pu-
pills promptly took steps to mete the
expense for her.
Miss Huff is 81. She began teaching
at 20. Many of her earlier pupils have
Joined the great majority since then.
But by those who live she is loved as
she, was when they answered her roll
call decades and four years ago.

Fewer babies are being born in the
large German cities, writes the Berln
correspondent of Journal of the Amer
lean Medical association. This year
the birth rate is lower in many Ger
man cities than in leading French
communities.
Such a situation, prolonged, might
easily have deep effect on European
politics., For France fears the German
cradle, additionally high birth rate, a
lot more than she fears adult Germany
of today.
The cradle, to the average European
politician, means chiefly: Cannon

This Little World

Gainesville, Tex.-Sheriff w. w. Hol-
| lingsworth never was rough with a
prisoner-never even spoke harshly to
one, in fact.
He never pulled gun, never had a
fight.
He never swore nor drank, nor
smoked.
He lives by the Golden Rule.
Yet he always "gets This man" and
he never let captive escape.
A Texas sheriff, at that!
Sheriff Hollingsworth was a Baptist
clergyman until his election eight
years ago. He hasn't had time to
preach since, but he says he thinks he
does more good as sheriff than he
could in the pulpit.
What's more, his Golden Rule meth
DDS have proved a success. Crime has
fallen off is Coryell county under his
regime and the criminal docket is abb
solutely clear, which is unusual any
where in the United States.
Cleveland.-It is the duty of your
dentist to teach you WHAT and HOW
to eat! r5
That is the surprising statementIpf
DR.. j. P Buckley of Los Angeles, re-
firing president of the American Dem
tai association.
Recently, at a convention of 10000
dentists here, he presented his the
cries on what he termed the most sig
nificant of all questions viewed from
the broad standpoint Of health. ~
"Those who from habit or disease
have learned to eat less daily than
they heretofore have done, now realize
with surprise how little food, proper
~ selected and properly masticated,
is necessary to maintain health" he
says.
"Gluttony is one of the worst and
most pernicious habits of the times.
Though difficult thing to do, for the
benefit Of the public health, it may
| become necessary to adopt a twentieth
amendment to the constitution to reg
ulate the eating as well as the drink
ing habit.
'None can deny that the liquor traf-
fic has even been the curse of the
ages. It has caused more misery, suf-
fering and death than all the pesti-
lence and wars that were ever known;
and yet gluttony today is claiming
more victims than drunkenness ever
did.
ut is the duty of the dentist to
teach people what and how to eat. A
balanced diet, properly masticated,
coupled with correct habits of living
and the right mental attitude, will abb
solutely eliminate the necessity for
the toothe brush"

A LESSON EASILY LEARNED.

Suggestion is being made by the chief of po-
lice that the arterial highway signs which have
come as the latest decoration in Kenosha be
provided with lights. 1t is shown that the
first year cost of providing such lights will be
in the neighborhood of $4,000 or $4,000 and
that the annual upkeep of the lighting system
will be close to two thousand dollars.
There is no question but that a lighted sign
at an arterial highway is to be preferred but
we doubt if the expenditure suggested would be
warranted.
The lesson of the arterial highway is one
easy to learn by any man or woman who wants
to learn it. Men and women automobile driv-
ers who do not respect these laws going to
drive past arterial highway signs no matter
whether they are lighted or not. Drivers COM
ing in from other cities and state need see only
one arterial highway sign to know that the
highway is marked They will not be nearly so
forgetful as the local people.
Many. other cities in the state and nation
have marked these highways without expen-
sive lighting systems and they seem to have
been able to get excellent results. Kenosha is
no exception to the rule and excellent results
are possible here. We concede that at several
of the most important crossings it would be
we'll to have lights to show these signs but
we would suggest that at such important cross

these lights directors of traffic. Let them blaze
out instructions to the motor car drivers and
in this way save the expense of maintaining
a traffic police officer at the corners in ques-
ton.
The best possible way to teach people to-
know the location of arterial highway signs is
to fine the people who fail to recognize them.
Line them up in court every morning and give
them to understand that every time they pass
one of these signs it means that they dig down
and pay. Make a few dozen of them pay and
the rest of the people will learn the lesson.
