Deaths From Lightning

Fear Of lightning is Of mans oldest emotions.
Prehistoric man feared lightning as the weapon o.
unseen spirits. All of the old mythoiogies made
lightning the servant of the chief god. The Greeks
for example gave the thunderboIt Zeus.
Records tell that both Julius Caesar and Nj
poleon afraid of lightning. 1t is not difficult
to understand tAcir fear. They felt themselves the
equal Of all earthly foes but the lightning out the
sky was something against which they could not de-
fend themselves
But Dr.. Arthur W. Gilbert, Massachusetts state
commissioner Of agriculture, points out, tho
basis OF a survey which he has just completed that
fear Of lightning is all out of proportion to the
chances of death by lightning.
The chance Of death by lightning is less than one
in million. DR.. Gilbert collected the statistics
Tor Massachusetts for five years. In that time ~
people were killed by lightning, average of ;.&
persons year. Dividing this into the population
Of the state, it that of every lols,770
persons were struck during the year.
The danger from speeding autos, for example is
several thousand times greater menace to life
than is lightning
Dr. Gilberts survey shows that you are ten ami
a half times as safe from lightning in city as you
are in the country.
This is because in the city steel frame buildings
trolley wires and the like draw much OF the cleo
trica energy out OF the atmosphere while storm
is brewing and therefore the resulting storm usually
does possess the electrical intensity OF {, thun
derstorm in the country.
Wires and steel frame works also act as lightning
protectors while storm is in progress.
Dr. Gilbert thinks, however, that farmhous"
which is properly protected by lightning rods
recty installed, is as safe city dwelling during
thunderstorm

! Y al

Two complaints of American
drinking habits come from Europe.
One is that American tourists
drink too much. The other is that
they drink too little.
In the hectic resorts, they storm
the bar and make nuisances Of them
selves. In German restaurants,th they
order lemonade and pass up even the
light wines and beer of the country.
Doubtless most Of these lemonade
drinkers in Germany belong to that
vast majority of Americans who
either were never in the habit Of
drinking or have got out of the ha-
bit of it since. prohibition, and who
now find themselves more comfort
able without it in country where
there is no legal or social objection,
and where the beverages are mild.
But doubtless also some of them
are the identical individuals who
made such frantic spectacles Of
themselves when they first landed.
There are certain groups in Amer
lea who have had the drink complex.
They did not particularly want Il
drink, but they did want the privi-
lege of taking it.
So, long brooding on the idea, they
leap to the chance when they reach
a "free" country-and then they
find they don't like it.
They feel happier in their right
minds So. by the time they reach
Germany, they quit in disgust, and
drink lemonade.

Life must have been considerably simpler in the
good old days when the male went forth after big
game and the female stayed at home by the freside
waiting to cook what her man caught.
There distinct division of labor. A man

toes, deform the arch of the foot,
shorten the muscles on the back Of
the calf and to disturb the relations
Of our internal organs.
In localities where ground pollu-
ton IS not present. it is good for
children to walk around bare-footed
in warm weather. OF course in
places where hook worm is prevalent,
this should not be, done.
Children should be taught to walk
with the toes pointing directly for
ward. the feet being parallel.
1t is fallacy to think that toe
ing out is the correct method of
walking. Toeing out tends to weak
en- the arches. ,
Exercises to Keep
The Feet Flexible
Certain simple exercises tend to
keep the feet flexible and in
healthy condition. Moving the toes
in all directions is one Of them.
A good exercise for the toes is to
try to grasp a small marble with
them. Moving the foot in all direc-
tions is another good exercise. Ris-
ing on the toes and heels is also ex-
cellent. These exercises can be
taken upon arising in the morning
and before retiring at night.
When the nails are cut, it is bet
ter to cut them straight across and
not to round off the corners because
I by rounding off these corners, in
growing nails are encouraged.
Persons in certain occupations.
such as walters, policemen, letter
carriers, statesmen, etc, require spc-
cial care Of the feet.
Those engaged in such occupations
should battle the feet every evening
! upon their return from work and
change to fresh shoes and stock
ingS.
In the morning, fresh, clean, soft,
| wcll-fitting stockings should be put
on and shoes Of sufficient length,
broad and roomy at the toes, we'll
| fitting around the instep, with soft
! leather tops and low heels should be
| worn.
In this way corns. callouses. bun
ions, improving nails, overlapping
toes and host of other foot ills
would be avoided.

By DIR. HUGH S. CUMMING
Surgeon General. United States
Public Health Service

The care of the feet can be dis
cussed under two neutrality-suspicious.
tive and corrective.
As to the former the care of the
feet should begin in infancy. AS a
rule, it is comparatively easy mat
ter for an 6rthopcdic surgeon to
correct congenital deformities Of the
feet without a cutting operation, if
the child is brought to him in its
first year.
BY skillful manipulation which
results in the stretching of short
ened tendons and ligaments and by
molding the deformed foot into the
proper position and shape and hold
ing it there by means of plaster
casts, congenital deformities of the
feet Of young children can very Of
ten be cured.
Weak ankles and weak feet oc-
curing in childhood are usually due
to general debility and lack of mus
Gle tone. Therefore the nutrition
of the infant should. be properly SUI
pervised by a physician to see that
it receives the proper kind of food.
The covering Of the child's foot is
important. The bones, ligaments
and cartilages in childhood are soft
and easily distorted by tight stock
ings and ill-fitting shoes. The child's
feet should be bare as many hours
as possible, especially when he is in
the house.
As child begins to stand and
walk, and shoes or sandals are ne
cessary in order to protect his feet,
he should be encouraged to exercise
the toes to prevent cramping. Great
care should be taken to select shoes
and sandals that are roomy, soft and
flexible.
No Heels on
Infants Shoes
Heels should not be worn on in
fants' or children's shoes. Nature
meant US TO stand and walk in such
position that the heels are on the
same level as the toes.
High heels tend to make us fall

garnered treasures Of the ages. They
stand for the permanencies.
Shakespeare knew nothing of
Freudian sex-complexes, but he
sounded the depths Of human pas
sion.
Homer lived in a limited and child
ish rid. but he filled it with pic
lures that are fadeless forever
There are Italian sonncts Of such
beauty that it hurts.
Chaucer is as refreshing as the
sweet showers of April with which
his famous Prologue begins.
Dante and Milton and Goethe lift
you to the ultimate peaks Of mag
ination. Or, if these supreme au-
thors are too much, the cultured
leisure of the British classics and the
older novelists offers fine antidote
for the hectic stress Of modern life.
Put yourself. for an evening or two
a week, back to the generations
when men had time.
"Pep' may be necessary tomor-
row; let calm" be the word tonight.
Evidently New York cares. And
that is saying lot.
The traditional metropolitan at
tItude mas been one OF superior
amusement at the moral reproaches
Of the cow counties and the "Rube"
| districts.
Now. when the Methodist Church
| charges New York with being the
center of distribution of indecency,
New York rises to defend itself.
New York produces these things.
to be sure. so the defense runs, but
it does so mostly for country con-
sumers. Which is doubtless partly
true.
Most Of the "Frenchiness" OF
Paris, for that matter, is for Amer
;sn1 tourists. But the main thing
! is that New York cares.
Whenever community thinks a
charge of immortality is worth de-
Tending itself against, that COM
! munity is on the way to reform.
