PUTTING SUNSHINE IN
FOOD

r IGHT is life. Darkness Is death.
~ The ancient philosophers knew
this. Men for centuries have known
that sunlight was necessary for health
and life. Gardeners and florists have
long known that plants, to be healthy
and strong, must have sunlight, n
that plants grown in cellars or caves
are pale, weak and unhealthy.
We have long known these facts.
We are only just beginning to know
why. Scientific men have learned
more about light in the last fifty years
than had been learned in all the long
centuries preceding. We know today
that all light is the same, that all
forms Of light come originally from
the sum-, which is the source Of all
light and Of all life as well, and that
when God said "Let there be light
He also said LET there be life"
For a number of years 1t has bee.
known that sunlight was especially
valuable in the treatment of two dis
eases, both of them largely diseases
Of infancy: tuberculosis, which some
Of the best authorities claim is always
contracted In early lie, no matter
when it may become apparent, and
ricketts,, which always occurs In the
first year or two of life. This is the
reason for the puzzling fact that poor
children in the slums who play out
doors in ragged clothes are often freer
from these two diseases than pam
pered children of wealthy families,
reared in hothouses and always over
dressed and wrapped up. Poverty has
its inconvenience, but the poor child
gets more sunlight on his skin than
does the son of the millionaire.
Then it was found that certain
kinds of electric lamps, the carbon anc
the m~ercury-vapor lamps, gave on
ultraviolet rays that had the same
effect as the sunlight. About a year
ago Professor SteenDock of the Un.-
versity of Wisconsin and DIR. Alfred
Hess of New York found that linseed
or c~ottonseed oil, exposed to the sun
light or to the mercury light, at sorted
these ultraviolet rays and were just
as valuable and much better tasting
than the cod liver oil that has for
years been used In the treatment CT
tuberculosis and ricketts,. Then they
found that flour, dried milk, eye
tables and other foods, exposed to the
light, absorbed these rays, and if fed
to the child would prevent ricketts,.
This is due to the fact that either the
animal or the vegetable cell absorbs
the ultraviolet rays and holds them,
later giving them off to the body.
These rays, taken into the body, slim
ulate the body cells, just as sunlight
does, and so make the body stronger
and healthier and better able to resist
disease.

came into being with the signing of the
Declaration of independence on the
Fourth of July 149 years ago. The
fathers home had been at Ch~ariottes-

Virginia, which was founded by
Thomas Jefferson from whose pen had
come the immortal Declaration.
The younger Niche attended the
public schools at Northport from 1902
to 1905. In March, 1905, the family
moved to Charlottesville. He went to
the public schools there and then at

WELL-FED CHILDREN

XK7HTLE the amount of tuberculosis
w has been greatly cut down in the
last % years, this dreaded disease is
far too common and still deserves its
name as "the great white plague" Be
side reducing 1t to almost one-half of
its former amount, we also know a
great deal more about it, and so know
better where and how to attack 1t.
Our grandfathers and grandmothers
thought that consumption was heredi-
tary, that certain persons were marked
for it from birth, and that it was use
less for such ~unfortunates to try to
escape their doom. We know now
that tuberculosis is not hereditary, but
that, far too Often healthy children
contract it from living in close con
tact with infected parents; that no
matter at what age the disease may
show itself, the infection is generally
contracted in childhood. W. also
know that there is no drug or serum
that will protect any one, and that
children who are improperly fed or
poorly nourished are more likely to
become infected than those who are
well fed and who have q high degree
of bodily resistance.
SO that one of the most hopeful
methods of reducing this dread dis
ease is to see to it that children, so
far as possible, are well fed, especial
ly during the period Of active growth.
In a recent article In Outdoor Life,
DIR. Henry A. Chadwick of the Massa-
chusetts department of public health,
discusses the relation of malnutrition
and tuberculosis in children. A we'll
nourished child, he says, stands erect,
is alert and has a slightly moist skin
of good color. Its bones and muscles
are well developed, and its weight Is
up to the average of a normal child Of
the same age. An undernourished
child is dull, nervou and idgety. He
has a rounded back and STOPPING shout
ders, pale, dry skin, fiabby muscles
through which the bones show plainly.
He is below the other children in
weight and height. He is nervous,
tires easily, sweats constantly, has q
poor appetite. and has frequent colds.
Such children, are more susceptible to
tuberculosis than are normal children.
They need simple, nourishing food and
plenty Of 1t, outdoor air and sunshine
and plenty Of sleep, If they are to over
come their natural tendency to con-
sumption.

Warning About Loans
on the Certificates

Beware of money lenders who seek
to get their hands on your World war
adjusted compensation certificates" is
the reiterated warning that American
Legion service officials at Washington
are sending to veterans throughout the
country. The warning is the result of
a report from the secret service d.
vision of the Treasury department that
certificates have been used as the basis
of loans not sanctioned by law. Agents
OF the secret service reported that 235
adjusted service certificates had been
accepted by a money lender in San An
tonic, Texas.
The Legion officials point out that
the World war adjusted compensation
act provides that after the expiration
of two years from the date of the Ger.
~tifcates, loans may be made. ANY ma
tional bank, or any bank or trust com
pany Incorporated under the laws of
any state, territory, possession o. the
District Of Columbia, Is authorized to
loan any veteran upon his promissory
note, secured by his adjusted service
certificate; and the act expressly
makes void any negotiation, assign
ment or loan made in violation Of these
provisions.
These restrictions were ~placed'in the
act to avoid exploitation Of veterans
by INSCRIPTIONS money lenders, while
the provision allowing them TO nego-
tiate loans upon their certificates un-
der certain conditions were intended
further TO protect their interests.

They Rother Them NouO

The coal crisis in England served to
recall the methods employed by the
miners in bringing their grievances to
public attention more than a century
ago-in 1916. At that time the work
ers made their protest in person. They
dragged loads of coal to London and
demanded to see the prince regent.
But the magistrate sent for them, told
them they must not bother London's
august p~ersonages, and babe them go
back to their work. And they went
back home, carrying their loads be-
hind them.
