Editorial Comment
Men in Public Office
Clint Daily JOurnll)

Samuel Harden Church, president of Carnegie
Institute voices crying need in the United States
for more education, especially among men in public
office or lin the government employ. Speakinr be-
fore a body of teachers he said:
"While we have made a certain progress in estab-
fishing intelligent civil service in this country
no one seems to think it necessary to require tina;
men who aspire to elective Offices of great rcspon
sbility shall be- in the best sense educated men.
In fact, there is. perhaps, prejudice among the
mass of the people against the election of educated
men in public life. That is a curious example of
the false psychology Of the crowd. When we are
sick we call in the best physician; when in trouble
We retain the best lawyer; when build house
we get the best architect, and when we build "a
bridge we employ the best engineer But when il
comes to politics. which means government. I'VE
seem content all too often to choose the man who
Is UNITED both by capacity and education for sue
cess in any other field of high service, and give
into his hands those great powers which affect on,
welfare in matters of law and public order, and tax
alton, and beyond all the rest, of human liberty"
If the masses are prejudced against the intee>
best govern themselves by eecting their own kind
to Office With their saperiors in office the people
would be more susceptible to the feeling of being
is the arch tyrant.
The public attitude of which DR.. Church speaks
was the inspiration of that adage "Everybody's
business is nobody's business The average voter
has come to believe that citizenship and tax re-
ceipt the only qualifications necessary for civil
service and government administration

Getting Inside Facts

Cooperative ventures engaged in by farmers havl
been teaching them many things. Especially have
they learned that it costs considerable to get the
product Of the farm the table of the ultimate
consumer Much of the deluson that they are
gouged by the middleman has been dispeled for
who have been actively connected with cooperative
marketing ventures 1t has been good thing for
the farmers. OF course there seems to be PAPER
unreasonable spread between what the farmer
gets and what his products actually bring in the
final market Abuses there are to be sure, but are
the profits of the middleman in the final analysis
great as the agitator maintains?
Minnesota has concrete example in the Potato
Growers Exchange. In eighteen months the sale<
OF this organization amounted to nearly two and a
half million dollars. The growers received less
than million OF this amount More than 81 26O. 00o
went for operating expenses. This 1854, 800
more than the growers received for their share
Probably other cooperative ventures have had the
experiences Within certain limits and under
especially favorable circumstances cooperative mar
keting ventures can be made to pay, but member
ship in them must be general and management eff
Cient and economical
While cooperative marketing is better than govern
mental interference in distribution of farm prod
ucts, it is not panacea Some venture of this kind,
especially those operated by the fruit and tobacco
growers have protected the market and secured for
the grower better price yet there hundreds OF
loosely organized cooperative units which have lost
money for the farmer. In many instances he would
have been better off to have taken his chances III
dividually in the general market
False economic doctrine preached by the politi-
clans and theorists have arrayed the farmer against
the business man. That antagonsm is abang. Farm
ers who come in contact with cooperative market
ing ventures have had their eyes opened They
witness the process Of distribution in its various
phases and see how expensive and complex it is.
In Minnesota at least the growers find that it costs
to get the potato from the farm into the hands
Of the ultimate consumer than it does to raise it.
Cooperation affords relief to the farmer if
the organizations which market his goods are
efficiently manned Unfortunately the individual
farmer cannot give the organization to which he
trusts his product the supervision and attention
that the commission man or broker gives his own
business.
Many items of expense enter into the marketing
OF farm products which farmer may not realize
until he pays the various bills through his coopera-
tive venture. Farmers who have gained this
perience not inclined to be hostile toward the
middleman those who know nothing Of the toll

With Tolls Abolished
(Kansas City starr

Kansas City has had striking illustration Of
the way in which traffic expands a tloroughfare
when tolls are abolished AS Walter Negba uer
pointed out in the "get-together" picnic last wee;
where the free bridge was discussed the intercty
viaduct as toll bridge received little patronage
With the removal of tolls the traffic has reached
point where it is necessary to add lower deck
for trucks and to widen the upper roadway.
Once roomy free bridge for motors is built to
span the Missouri at Kansas City there will be an
enormous gain in motor traffic This movemen,
will be OF mutual benefit to Clay and Jackson cour
ties. 1t will involve not merely an expansion of
the tourist business in Western Missouri 1t will
bring new intercounty traffic that will be of ad
vantage to both counties.

Scarlet fever is very contagious
disease, easy to catch, but not so
easy to cure. When the disease is
mild it is sometimes called scarlet
rash. but is none the less scarlet
fever. The incubation period is
from two to four days.
Scarlet fever begins with head
ache, vomiting, faintness and occa-
sional commissions. especially in chill
dren.
The child suddenly feels tired, list
less and out Of sorts. The mouth
and throat are deeply congcsted.
There is pain on swallowing or talk
ing. The skin is very dry and hot.
The tongue is furred and under
this white covering is red and swol-
len. The inflammation may extend
from the throat to the ears. The
glands of the neck often become
swollen. In ordinary cases these ear
ly signs are followed in a day or
two by a rash.
In mild cases this rash may be
first symptoms noticed. Little red
points close together appear, first
on the neck and chest.
These soon spread over most Of
the body. This rash is very brilliant
in color. After four or five days the
skin begins TO shed. Sometimes it
is cast off in large flakes.
inflammation Of many organs of
the body may follow scarlet fever.
There may be pneumonia, pleurisy
liberation of the throat, abscess in
the neck and inflammation of the
| lining membrane of the heart.
Nephritis or inflammation of the
kidneys frequently occurs in the sec
ond to the fourth week.
Dangers of Complications
In this complication puffiness is
noticeable under the eyes, the hands
and ankles swell, sometimes there is
general dropsy.
There may be commissions and the
| case may quickly end in death. In
! other cases the person either recov-
ers entirely or complications may de-
velop.
There may be pain, swelling and
redness of the joints. Careful watch
should be kept in cases Of scarlet
fever for symptoms of inflammation
of the middle ear. These symptoms
are pain in the ear. tenderness
over the bony prominence behind the
ear, and drowsness. The patient
may moan in sleep and be hard to
arouse.
If the drum membrane breaks the
pus escapes from the ear opening
and if the inflammation is mild the
symptoms abate, otherwise an alb.

usual occurrence such as swelling

portion of the body. The mild form
may give rise to severe attack in
another person.
In severe case there may be high
fever, delirium, coma, gangrene of
the throat with foul discharge
from the nose and mouth. In these
cases the patient usually dies with
in a few days.
Proper Care Necessary
You should know that death from
scarlet fever is infrequent in cases
that receive proper care and atten-
ton, although many children sue
cumb to the complications produced
by scarlet fever and it is often the
starting point of chronic disease of
the head, ears and kidneys which
| latter may cause death in later life.
It is more fatal to children under
six years of age.
Persons suffering from scarlet
fever should be isolated and should
not be allowed to communicate with
| other people as long as there are
any discharges from the mouth.
throat, ears or other parts of the
body. The person caring for the pa
tient should not mingle with other
persons and all dishes should be
scalded before being again used.
| The patient should have his own
dishes, spoons, knives and forks.
These dishes should be sterilized by
washing in scalding water. All cloth
ing worn by the patient should be
disinfected. Milk bottles should be
sterilized before being returned to
the milk man. These precautions
should be taken in the mildest cases.
The most careful supervision by
doctor is essential in scarlet fever.
Remember These Points
Preventive measures:
I. Children who have had scarlet
lever must not return 10 SCnOOl 1Of
at least six weeks.
2. Children whose skin is peeling
or whose nose or ear is discharging
still have scarlet fever
3. Treatment by doctor is es-
sential. The heart, kidneys and ears
| are most seriously affected by scar
let fever and great care of the pa
! tient should be taken.
4. You should follow implicitly
the doctors directions and instruc-
tions as to food and clothing.
S. Careful nursing should be con-
tinued after the skin has peeled and
the patient is apparently we'll.

That the one man who was not

that he had no knowledge of where

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
THE LAST OF TICK Took


"Why, did you say that old clock
on the kitchen wall took a thousand
men to make ~ asked Nick. Il We
seen men in jewelry stores fix NO
clocks and l think one man could
make one.'
Tick Took, the little clock fairy,
laughed. 81 just knew that was what
you were thinking he said.
Eyes, after all the material was
given to him, perhaps he could said
Tick Took. But it takes men to
make material, or even to find it.
The works of a clock have all sorts
of minerals in them that must be
mined and worked and purified be-
fore a matchmaker or clockmaker
can use them at all. Copper, steel,
brass, and lead all have place in
clock. Even gold and silver in
some clocks-and jewels.
1.-THE porcelain or enamel in the
dial is made of fine baked clay that
takes mining and preparing and all
sorts of things before it becomes a
clock face. Then there is the glass,
and the wood in the case, the oils to
make it 60, and so forth. The best
clock oil is made from black fish
which are very hard to find and hard
to catch. More men again! Yes, it
takes a thousand men to make the
plainest clock, MY dears. Ships,
trains, mines, furnaces, and a great
deal of skill with it all. Clocks are
wonderful things"
1--WE have had fine time on our
adventure" said Nancy, land we
have learned a lot, haven't we, Nick.
I'm sure we are ever and ever SO
much obliged"
you're welcome" said Tick Took
heartily. "There are still more clocks
in the world that you have not seen,
but time was too short to show you
everything. l know of one clock in
a church that has such beautiful
chimes, man at the organ inside
the church can sit down and play
any tune he wishes on them, on the
chimes, mean, and they can be
heard for miles. That is Trinity
Church in New York. And because
those chimes are SO sweet and so
famous. jewellers copy them in
smaller clocks, that is, in house
clocks. Many people who have chime
clocks in their houses do not know
that they are hearing, every hour
and quarter hour, and half hour, the
very same chimes that ring out in
Trinity Tower at the same minute -
"That, is very interesting" said
Nick. my, you know a lot, Tick
Took"
"And l know Of another clock, not
so large" said Tick Took, "that was
made in Spain about the time Colum-
bus discovered America. 1t is made
of silver and looks like music box,
for underneath the clock works is a
either. On the hour it plays one tune
and on the half hour another. 1t
only has two tunes, but they are
quite long.
But there, my dears, the sun is
coming up and promised the Fairy
Queen that would have you back
in bed long before morning. You
will be very tired when your mother
comes in to waken YOU"
"Oh, mol" said Nick. 1--WE never
get tired in the magic shoes"
"Well, goodnight, them" said the
little fairy. Here we are right in
your room where l found you. Try
to remember some of the things
have told you and we'll 60 on an
other adventure some day."
The fairy took the magic shoes and
