Temporary Buildings
For Permanent
Quarters

~ AN ANTONIO is the permanent home of an i'm

States. Since the Lone Star State was first incor-
porated into the Union United States troops have been
quartered in this city, except during the brief interval
when the Stars and Bars floated over the South.
There is reason not to believe that San Antonio
will continue to remain the military center of the South
west 1t may be taken for granted that thousands of
officers and will always be on duty at the camps

for the training of pilots will be strengthened by the
development of national air defense.

Communism Fails

4 GOOD deal of sentimental talk will be expend-
~ 3D. no doubt on the failure of the 'communistic'
L. - city of Llano del Rio, which was organized and
endowed twelve years ago to show how communism
would work. AS developed at Llano del Rio, it didn't
work. Which proves-what?
Not thing. Many town organized on the &C
cepted economic basis has busted as this one did
Lano del Rio was in the Mojave desert, which, in
the first place, is not idea of any place to spend
lifetime.
And, in the second place, whenever the inhabitants
of Lano del Rio wanted to go out among the rest of the
people of the world, they were handicapped Either
they couldn't raise the money to go at ALL they did
go they were at sharp economic disadvantage. That
was the trouble with the famous Brook Farmers of an
earlier day in New England. They all right as
long as they chung to Brook Farm, but they had no
chance in Boston!
We don't blame the founder" of Llano del Rio for
pesssmism He had IDEAL but not enough authority
to compel general acceptance of it. The great OF
US who don't believe in communism also have an ideal
and majority enables to force its general accept
ance. Therefore say it works" Whether
munsm would or would not work can never be decided
on any such small scale single village.

well his experiment has advanced
remains yet to be seen.
1t Is certain, however, that we are
making enormous strides in COM
munication by the human voice
through the air.
Arrangements have been made
whereby American programs can be
received at certain times in Eng
land, and vice versa, English pro-
prams in Americs.
He would be n bold man who
should predict what will take place
in the next % years. If progress
continues to advance, however, in
the same line in which it has gone
so far, its strides will be enormous.
No one can foretell what radio has
in store.
1t was considered a feat when
messages in code were transmitted
across the ocean by cable. 1t is
much more Of a performance when
the human voice is actually carried
through the air and heard across
the ocean. 1t seems, however, TO
be entirely practical when the radio
apparatus has been perfected, since
at present the voice has been heard
half way around the world.

Proper Diets for the I'll
By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D.

) own food. He may know every
thing else and yet not know what
to cat. But when it comes to max
ing up a diet for a sick person, he
will throw UP his hands in sur
render.
Suppose you were dealing with
person past middle life, suffer
ing a violent bowel disturbance:
What would you advise?
To have regular action Of the
bowels, a healthy person must
select some foods which contain
fibre. Every farmer gives his ami
mails roughage-the hay serves to
supply the brush-like materials
which sweep the lining Of the in
testine and assist in its cleansing.
Roughage is equally important to
the human animal. The brushing
of the walls results in stimulation
Of the muscular coats of the in
testine, producing the wave-like
contractions which carry the waste
substances onward and outward.
In "bowel complaint" the lining
Of the intestine becomes congested,
actually inflamed, and sometimes
liberated. The tissues become ex-
tremely sensitive. Food containing
the least possible amount Of fibre
may have just enough to raise
havoc with the disturbed mucous
lining.
On this account it is great
mistake to give any kind of tough,
fibrous or otherwise indigestible
food. 1t is far better to give no
food Mt all for a whole day. If
the bowels are running Off it
helps control the trouble to omit
food entirely.
When the pain and fever lessen,
simple feelings may be begun. Bear
in mind one rule-never give any
unstrained food to the victim OF
bowel disturbance, whether acute
or chronic. Every fruit, vegetable
and cereal should be run through
a fine-meshed seive. This removes
husks, fibres and other substances
which would irritate and further
inflame the bowel lining.
Almost any fruit or vegetable
can be given If it is treated in
this manner. During the period of
recovery, when appetite is fitful, it
will make it lot easier to nourish
the patient IL there is n variety
from which to select the food. This
plan gives that variety.
Frequent feeding Of very small
meals is better than forcing the
faded appetite. With an assort-
ment of broths, gruels, vegetables
and fruits you will coax the palate
and give the nourishment essential
TO recovery.

What are the rules Of mental
health? Just plain good sense,

Don't give way to the ambitions Of
others. Don't overdo and exagger-

Take it easy' Sleep, eat and recre-
ste properly! Don't overwork but
learn how to work. Pay attention
to the needs Of the mind as well as
to those Of the body. Hear music,
read books, see plays, play games,
Taught
Above all, stop and think.
Change your method Of living in
such way that it conforms to
what is rational.
Watch fatigue particularly. 1t

fatigue by rest and sleep.
Remember that your mind IS the

Radio Progress
By DR.. FRANK CRANE

Reports are that a radio message
from London has been received on
board the United States warship
Seattle at New Zealand. This
distance is more than 1900 miles,
or practically half way around the
earth.
News comes also that Donald
Macmillan, Arctic explorer, at a
position II degrees from the North
Pole, has been heard in Australia.
These facts illustrate the ire
mendous progress Of the radio bust
ness.
That the human voice can be
heard half way around the earth,
being conducted solely by the cleo
trio waves in the air, is certainly
a feat Of which our forefathers
did not dream.
4 man by the name Of Cazzam-
ali, professor of neurology at the
University Of Milan, has announced
that electric magnetic waves given
out by the brain can be received on
a radio receiver.
The transfer Of thought without
the medium of words has always
been the dream Of the scientists,
and this man claims that he has in
a measure succeeded at it. How

When we bear in mind that in
sanity and mental effectiveness has
more than doubled in the past 30
years, it is putting it very mildly
to state that mental health is all
essential.
The rate Of increase Of mental
illness is indeed alarming.
And it is not because advance
in the diagnosis and treatment of
mental disorders has Jagged behind
similar advances made in general
medicine.
No, mental disorders are being
recognized earlier, are being treated
more scientifically, and more cases
are being cured than ever before.
The menace of mental disease
cannot be laid to the door of
science!
The menace of the steadily in

blamed on civilization
For example, during slave days,
insanity was practically unknown,
among American negroes.
Not so nowadaysl Left alone 20
their own resources and ability in
the struggle for existence, insanity
among negroes is very common.
It's the increasing stress and
strain of modern life that produces
nervous and mental breakdown!
It's the wear and tear that we
subject ourselves to that does the
damage.
It's the carelessness of common
sense rules Of living that under
mine.
It's the mad rush, the kcenness
Of competition, the worship Of gold,
possession and power, that insid-
iously eats worm-holes into tho
very structure and fabric Of our
physical and nervous systems.
And then, sooner or later-but
incyitably-the crash comes.

No matter how brave and self
reliant a man may be in the ordin-
airy experiences of life, he becomes
meek and admittedly helpless in
the face of serious illness. As he
gazes upon the suffering and weak

little he knows Of things which
bring comfort and help to restore

Something to Think About
By BRUNO LESSING

A Buddhist monk by the name of
Anagarika Dharmapala is on his
way to the United States to preach
the Buddhist philosophy Of love
without hatred or anger. This is
a good philosophy. Christianity Is
supposed to have preached it for
1925 years, this coming Christmas.
Mr. Dharmapala has a slogan
which runs like this: May all be
happy. May all be happy. May
all be happy"
That is also a good slogan. When
one begins to analyze it, however,
and ponder over it, one is apt to
get into deep water. And many Of
US cannot swim.
