Music in the Factory

To stop the girls they employ from
talking, an English hosiery factory is
encouraging them to sing. A gramo-
phone has been installed in the work
rooms, and when the machinery is
running the gramophone is put on.
"Chattering interferes with output
more seriously than almost anything
else" said works official, "but the
gramophone, while it does not distract
their attention from their work, en-
courages them TO sing and stimulates
them mentally"

The senate judicial committee has
killed the Titus and Schumann bills,
which had been aimed at Gov. Blaine's
policy of appointing members of the
legislature to state positions.
Senator Titus bill had sought to
declare this practice illegal, while
Senator Schumann's measure provided
for the dismissal of such legislators
from the places they are now holding.
Appearing for his measure, Mr..
Titus had condemned the practice
on the ground that the policy was
dangerous. He cited the fact that
it is not permitted in the United
States government.

legislature s.

Eleven appointments have been sent
to the senate for confirmation by Gov.
Blaine. In majority of instances
present incumbents were renamed.
The most important appointment
was that of William ]. Conway. Wis
consin Rapids, a Democrat, to the
state tax commission for an eight
year term. Mr.. Conway will succeed
Thomas Lyons, Superior, who resigned
some time ago. The post pays $4,000
year.
Mrs. Margaret H. Abels, Waukesha,
was appointed member Of state board
of control to succeed Mrs. Kading, re-
signed, term ending in February, 1927,
and William Mauthe, Fond du Lac,
was named member board of concili-
alton for term ending February, 1927.
In both cases appointments were pre-
viously made, but combinations by
senate are now necessary.
Following are appointments: DR..
w. F. Lorenz, Madison, member of
state board of control; Adolph Kan
nenberg, Milwaukee, member of rail
road commission; J. @. Emery, Al
bion, dairy and food commissioner;
Thos ]. Cunningham, Chippewa Falls,
supervisor of oil inspection; George
Staudemayer, member of highway
commission; Ernest N. Warner, Madl-
son, member of board of Cancellation;
Joseph w. Conner, Brule, member OF
grain and warehouse commission.
The administration highway bill,
which includes a 2-cent gasoline tax
and a system of state aid for city,
village and rural roads, has been re
ported for passage by the senate high
way committee.
The highway bill received many
last minute changes. The most inn
portant of these is the ratio in which
the huge net balance from the $14,500.-
900 proposed fund will go back to the
counties. After all of the regular pro-
gram of road construction and main
tenance has been taken care of for
the year 1925-1926, there would be left
for county distribution net balance
of about $6,000,000.
The final draft of the bill disclosed
that the ratio in which this balance
is to go back to counties is so per
cent on road mileage, and 40 per
cent on automobile registration, in
stead of two-thir IS and one-third, re-
spectively, under the first draft of
the program announced last week.
The s,nate committee on labor, in
dustry and agriculture has recon-
mended for passage the Padway reso-
luton ratifying the federal child labor
amendment. The vote of the commit
tee was unanimous, Senator j. c.
Schumann, Watertown, who was be-
lieved to have been an opponent of
ratification, voting with the others.
Observers believe that the senate
will pass the resolution without much
of a scrap and the Socialists and a
large majority of the Progressives
have declared for it. In the assembly,
however, the outcome is in nowise
certain.

HEALTH GRAMS


Babies speak the same language
the world over The little yellow
skinned Nipponese cries when he is
sick, hungry or in pain just like the
tiny bambino in sunny Italy. Likewise
the healthy, happy infant boy of a
Russian Red greeJS the world with a
smile just like the heir apparent to
the British throne or the bouncing
boy of a wel-to-do Illinois farmer.
Black or white, red or yellow the
healthy baby whose simple wants are
met in i common sense, human way
is happy and rarely cries except
when injured in mind or body. On the
other hand the sick and the near-sck
babies of every land are prone to
cry.
Parents are responsible for the
health of babies If babies are born
healthy they will remain so under
right Twin conditions and any indus
trious parent can learn what right
conditions are. If babiS are the vic
tim of congenital disease the respon-
sibility of birth is certainly not with
the child.
There are more fatalities among
babies under one year of age than
among persons in any ten year age
group of later life until go. The
reason is that babies cannot take care
of their own health needs and those
whose duty it is fail to do so. The
enormous sales of nostrum and pro-
pretary medicines prepared for chill
dren suggest to the thoughtful obser-
yer that parents try the short cut
method toward health for their babies.
Soothing syrup usually brings caIm
and peace TO a crying baby but 1t only
postponeS the evil for another time.
Health comes from correct dietary,
correct habits of sleep and exercise
and an abundant supply of fresh AR
and sunshine. After a child is SICK
certain kinds of medicine given under
the direction of a competent physl-
clan aids recovery.
People between 20 and 80 suffer
most Of the violent deaths. Last year
out of each fatalities that oc-
Cured in that age group were due TO
murder, suicide or accident of some
sort in the order named. In other
words a person of 20 years stands a
to chance of being the victim of
fatal violence before he reaches 30, If
he succumbs during that period.
After age so, heart disease, neph-
ritis and cancer are the worst enemies
of man. Approximately one-half OF
all deaths that occur among persons
over 30 are due to these three causes.
Manifestly the fellow of half hun
bred summers has but little choice
among methods of his taking off.
Mortality from heart disease, can
Ger and nephritis is increasing repldly.
This, say health officers is very en-
couraging because these are diseases
of later life. Plainly the greater the
number who succumb at ripened age
the more are those who successfully
dodge disaster in younger life.
Heart disease, cancer and nephfltis
caused one-third Of all deaths that
occurred last year in Illinois. This Is
regarded as a splendid tribute to the
medical profession and to public
health workers because it means that
success is attending their efforts
which have been concerned primarily
with contagious diseases.

Children quickly adopt the attitude
of their parents, be it one OF bravery
or fear. Many mothers wonder where
their children get their fear of light
nin~ or animals, forgetting that they
themselves have shown fear when
they thought the children were not
noticing. -,
Such was the case with little Ellen.
Her mother thought the child inherit,
ed from her a fear of the dark ana
everything strange. Ellen would
awake screaming at night, saying
some one was climbing in at the VIM
dow. Her mother compared this IN
the child's hearing to her own fear OF
being left alone of an evening when
she thought every sound meant a
lurking marauder. The mother had
heard many ghost stories in childhood,
and though she denied that she had
ever told them to Ellen, she talked
quite freely about TIM in her presence
1t is not hard to see where TINS chic 5
inherited" fears originated.
If the child develops fear of loud
noises and flashes of light, such as
thunder and lightning and firing OF
guns, he can overcome it only with the
help of intelligent suggestion from
the parents. He must see from their
attitude that there is no occasion Tor
fear. The mother who is TERMED by
these situations and whose fear Is
openly demonstrated before the child
can be of no assistance to him. lml-
tation clearly plays an important part
in the advancement and control OF
fear. This may be seen, for instance,
if things 20 wrong at sea and a ship
is i'm danger. One panic-strlcken per
son may start a stampede for the HE
boats, whereas one calm and fearless
officer can duell the impending panic
and control the situation.
Vague and poorly formulated Ideas
about death are the basis of more
mental anxiety in children than Is
generally supposed. To one child
death meant being buried in a hole,
another child had a fear of being
