Seeing Washington

even when you have visited each one
and checked it in your book, there
Will be yet more that only the pryor
into out-of-the-way places will dis
cover and enjoy. Old houses that
held historic homes and bear no tab
let to inform the passer-by of the
fact; the Civil War forts that ring
the city where trees grow tall from
out the trenches; colonial spots of
Georgetown that stood before there
was a capitol or even nation here;
forgotten statues of great men hid
den away in obscure and dusty corn
ers; beauty spots little known and
never visited.
1t takes the visitor to find all these
things. There are men and women
who have been in Washington all
their lives who have never set foot
in the Capitol, the Congressional
Library, in any one of the major pub
lie buildings. This was at first I'M
believable to me; but l found it was
true. l think they are not altogether
to blame. We cease to wonder at
things with which we are in daily
contact. And the residents here
knows that, Washington-born or not,
he cannot in the course of one short
life hope to enjoy all the beauties, all
the artistic treasures, all the historic
memories that are to be found in
Americas wonderful Capital

DON'T LET THEM OVERDO
a Message TO Parents From the
Department Of Health

Here is a message to the mothers,
and incidentally to the fathers in
Maryland, from the Bureau of Child
Hygiene Of the State Department of
Health. 1t is applicable all the year
round, but it should be especially
needed during the holiday season,
when the temptation to over-excite-
ment, to keep late hours and to have
too little rest, is even greater than
at other times.
"Many parents" says Dr. Knox,
Chief of the Bureau, "do not appre-
ciate the Importance of sleep and rest
for infants and young children. IN
less a child's nervous system is ade-
quately rested, no matter how care
fully its diet may be planned, the
child will still be underweight for its
age and will not have normal resis-
lance to diesase.
"0ver-fatigue is well known
cause of indigestion and loss of
weight. Suitable food and sufficient
sleep are more or less dependent up
on each other. Children expend a
great deal of energy and strength in
attaining height and weight. Great
care must be taken Il. all times to
guard against overstimulation of a
child's nervous system.
During the first six months Of
life, the young infant sleeps eats,
and grows. 1t often requires from
twenty to twenty-five hours, out of
the twenty-four, for sleep. During the
second half year, sixteen to eighteen
hours is necessary, and twelve to
fourteen hours of sleep up to the
fourth year are not too much.
Young children. from two to six
years old, are often allowed to sit
up too long after the evening meal,
and so miss long hours of strength
giving sleep. Children, INDUCED in
this way, are apt to be pale, peevish,
restless and irritable and have poor
appetites.
Zone of the most important fea-
lures of young child's daily rout-
tine is the midday rest. Very many
children under six can not store up in
six or eight hours enough surplus
energy to carry on happily during
twelve hours of constant activity.
"All doctors have had to insist up
on midday rest for young children
who have been brought to them be-
cause of nervousness or indigestion,
and have learned that the hours rest
Or sleep, if possible-without any
change in diet, will generally restore
the children to health.
Gwen when children are attending
two sessions of school, it is often pos
sible to have child Of seven years
old rest for half an hour after the
midday meal before returning to
school. When this is impossible the
rest should be taken Immediately af-
ter the afternoon session. Many Of
the shcools caring for young children
provide for a rest period at midday.
Even if children cannot sleep at this
time, complete relaxation in a quiet
and well ventilated room, or, if the
season permits, upon porch, is of
great benefit"

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULTS:
CENTRAL PERIOD OF CHRISTs
MINISTRY.
This is prominently the period of
Christ's work with the Twelve in
which the words were directed toward
the enriching of their understanding
and the events were used to teach
them some truth. There are six les
sons of each and study of what He
was trying to work in them will make
a good grouping of the material.
What was the "sower" to teach?
What the raising of Lazarus? What
is He trying to teach disciples today?

Madison Again
Wins from
Redwood Team
INDEPENDENTS MEET LEGION
TEAM AT MADISON SUNDAY IN
SECOND GAME, SCORE 60 FOR
MADISON; SEIFERT INJURED.

Last Sunday the Redwood Indepen.
dents fought a four round bout with
the strong Madison aggregation on
the latters home field. 1t was a re-
turn for the game played at Redwood
some weeks ago and the score was
precisely the same-6-0 with Redwood
dragging down the consolation prize.
The damp condition of the field made
the contest resemble championship
swimming match and plays were con-
siderably limited in variety as re-
suit. Passes sunk into the mud at
every attempt and punts were limited
to almost none. The game was play
ed straight through the line for the
most part as a man couldn't be sure
of holding onto the ball long enough
to circle an end. Madison made the
one counter of the game on tumble
which rolled over the line and was
captured by one of Madison's players,
after the Redwood line had held Madi-
son for seven downs on Redwood's one
yard line! The Redwood gang STAYED
on that one line for so long that when
it came time to move, someone had to
chip the ice off of the linemen.
The Redwood bunch has much to
say about the excellent treatment
which they received from Madison.
The players say that they have never
had the good fortune to encounter a
bunch of better sports that they found
in the Madison lineup and the attitude
OF the football men was typical of the
spirit which greeted them at every
turn while in Madison. jacobson, a
Madison man, refereed the squarest
game of the season, according to many
of the local players.
1t is still an unsettled question as
to whether or not the Purple and Gold
fighters will engage in any further
contests this season, as several of
the warriors are laid out for the re-
mainder of the season. Seifert, Red
woods heavy tackle, is on the hospital
list with broken shoulder which will
keep him out for the rest of the year
and Cole and Lamberton did not play
Sunday on account of injuries received
in previous games. Hauck, the light

1t is estimated that new buildings
to the value of more than $250,000
have been erected on the farms OF
Lyon county during a five months
period following the tornado that
swept over this part of the state on
June %. Erection of these buildings
has brought about the practical re-
Mobilization of nearly every farm that
was in the path of the great storm.
Included in the new buildings are
homes, barns and granaries, to replace
those destroyed.
More thorough home training and
the proper home environment are
basic needs if the schools of the coun-
try are to do their greatest good in
the education of children, Governor
p. A. O. Preus said last night in a
proclamation calling attention to AM
ercian Education Week, November II
to %. Teachers and school officers
cannot keep the schools at their high

therein, unless they have the continu
Gus interest and cooperation of the
parents and public" Governor Preus
said. The governor urged parents to
visit schools and give particular
thought to the problems of education.
Rev. j. w. Jiracek of the Church
of st. Catherine was the chief speak
err at very successful meeting of
the League of Women Voters held at
the home of Mrs. C. V. Everett last
Friday evening. Father Jiracek spoke
on immigration a topic on which he
has background which made it pos
sible for him to give an unusual and
extremely interesting discourse. While
not foreign born himself, he comes of
foreign born parents and served for
eleven years as priest of a parish
where the American language was
practically unspoken. His viewpoint
of the study of the foreign born led
him to a close analysis of Americana
cation problems presented by the
foreign-speaking residents of the I'm
tied States. The speaker discussed
the trend of education and suggested
certain changes essential to the in
corportating of foreigners into the
civic body. A discussion of the
thoughts his talk suggested followed
it, many of the ladies present taking
part. Two chapters Of "The Great
Game of Politics" were discussed by
Mrs. Carr and Mrs. McRae, and keen
interest was reused in this book which
is among those suggested for careful
study by the woman who is seeking
to find her political place. The Of
ficers OF the League plan to make the
next meeting teachers meeting with
special attention to the proposed edu-
cation Legislation to come before the
next session of the state legislature.
1t will be held November 21st.

California Parched from
 Long Sustained Drouth

ANACORTES, April 11-Melville Curtis, former mayor of this city and one of it's founders, has just returned from his annual visit to a brother in California, and he reports terrible con- ditions in Southern California, due to the drought. He says that in the south ern part of the state there has not been more than ten per cent of a nor nal rainfall, and fall wheat sown last September has not grown and the fields are as dry and bare of feed as at desert The hills are bare and far mers have had to kill off stock in or der to save the balance. In the noun tains there has been less than ten per cent of the normal snowfall, so there is little or no water for irrigation. Ev- erything is being allowed to die except the orange groves and these may not be saved. The Los Angeles water sys- tenn sees the end of the water supply by next October, and it is now con- serving water in every direction, and is not allowing the use of water for drinking or irrigation, so that gardens and lawns are drying up. North ern California, Mr. Curtis says, is not so badly off, but the whole state is suffering.

COOLIDGE MANAGERS
 ARE PLEASED WITH
 ND. DAKOTA RESULTS
PRESIDENTS STRENGTH IN HOT BED OF RADICALISH IS
 SIGNIFICANT

WASHINGTON, D. C., April H. President Coolidge's victory in North Dakota has had an impressive effect on the campaign of the recent execu- tive, winning primary in the hot-bed of radicalism, receiving a plurality of the votes as against Senator LaFollet- te and Senator Hiram Johnson, con vinces the Coolidge managers that whatever may be the trend of politics in other Western states, the president has better than an even chance to achieve the nomination with the back ing of the so-called radical state.
 The North Dakota situation has been exciting interest for several weeks be- cause it has double significance. Mr. Coolidge's prestige was at stake, of course, but something even more far reaching than that was involved in the North Dakota vote. t is the recent ten dency of North Dakota to get back in the regular republican column and for sake the non-partisan league The fight against the league has been wag- ed with increasing success in the last two years and the victory of MT. Cool idge emphasizes the extent to which the regulars have made inroads upon their opponents.

ONLY TWO CANADIAN CITIES HAVE FIVE-CENT
 STREET CAR FARES

VANCOUVER, B. C., April 10-- Some interesting details regarding street railways in Canada have been elicited as a result of inquiries made into the management of the principal sstyems. For instance, there are now only two street railways on which five cent fare is still in force; you can ride in Winnipeg more cheaply on Sunday than on week days; height and not age governs the issuance of children's tickets in Toronto; Quebec appears to be the only system still issuing work ingmen's tickets, while in Montreal you can ride 1928 miles for single fare.
 The question of fares is, of course, the one of most interest as far as the general public is concerned and except for the nickle are in force in Ottawa and Hamilton, Ont, the six cent fare in Vancouver is lower than the rate charged in other cities in the dominion of Canada.
