DIR. Sunshine


Il am here as messenger from
my friend, DR.. Sunshine" the Health
Gnome remarked, as he blew in thru
the open window at the State Depart
ment of Health, and settled down on
the desk of the Chief of the Bureau
of Child Hygiene for conference.
I've bunch of sunshine prescrip-
tions," he remarked, "for babies and
the little kids, and it wouldn't hurt
the grown-ups to take some of the
same medicine.
But the wee babies, those only two
or three months old, are my particu-
lar charge, today, and this prescrip-
ton will help to prevent ricketts,, that
disease of the bones that gives them
bowlegs, knock knees, pigeon breasts,
and causes other deformities and i'll
nesses.
"This prescription says Give the
baby sunbath every sunny day, but
as baby's skin is tender, you have to
be very careful not to give him an
overdose of anything as powerful as
sunlight.
80 1T goes on to say Begin with
very small doses And the directions
are to put the baby in his carriage or
in his kiddie coop, screened from flies
and mosquitoes, on the porch or out
of doors where he will be protected
from the wind.
Then it says, always screen the
baby's eyes from the direct sunlight
Uncover the baby's hands and arms
and let the sun shine on them for five,
minutes. Then another five minutes
on the feet and legs. Covering the
legs, let it shine on the chest; just for
hive minutes, mind you; and then on
the back. Try this twice day for a
week. You can tell whether the sun
is soaking in and helping the baby by
the gradual tanning of the skin. After
the skin begins to be tanned the baby
can have an all over sun bath of
twenty to thirty minutes once or
twice a day without getting sun
burned"
The Health Gnome consulted the
slip he had taken out of his little
green cap and that was marked
with the Rx that decorates every
orthodox prescription. at also says"
he continued chat at this time of the
year the sunbaths should be given be-
tween eight and eleven in the morn
ing; and if second bath is given.
after three in the afternoon. Espec-
ial care should be taken to keep the
baby in the shade between eleven and
three when the sun is highest and
hottest.
THE sun bath will not only help
the bones to grow straight and strong
but they help the skin and muscles
to get frmer and more resistant to
disease. Grown-ups are supposed to
have lot of common seise, so of
course they will understand that they
nave TO shorten the time when it is
intensely hot, or is suddenly very
cool.
"You just ought to see how much
good the sunbaths do to older kid
dies" he went on. "But they have to
be gotten used to them gradually, too.
And by the way, little bathing trunks
are as good for sunbaths as for sea
baths. Best of all, the little kids can
keep them on for the greater part of
the day, only" and he shook his
finger very impressively-"their eyes
and the tops Of their heads must be
protected from the direct sunlight.
You can get mighty cute little sun
hats in all the stores.
THAT'S all today, thank you."-
and he was gone again.

cations, insurance companies, labor
organizations and gas and oil indus
try bureaus. California's bill in this
computation is $1,120,000,000.
If these figures are not enough to
make the average motorist put on
his thinking cap, the recent report
of State Controller Riley is a warn
ing. He says the total bonded in
debtedness of all forms of govern
ment in California is over 5000, 9,000,
900, an increase of over $76,000,000
over last year. The increase since
1911 is $40 per cent, while the as
sessed value of non-operatiye pro-
perty which is liable for the interest
and redemption Of bonds, increased
only 100 per cent AS the motorist
shares responsibility for these debts
and must pay his part of the inter-
est and principal, it is but natural
that mention of more taxes should
cause his spine to shimmy.

SHOOTING AT SIGNS
(El Paso Herald)

Don't shoot at road sign. It's a
vandal's trick, cheap and criminal.
That sign was put up at consider
able expense to guide people who
don't know the way.
They need it by day, and more by
night.
If it is thrown down or shot down
they may lose the road, take the
wrong turning, wander off on the des-
ert, run out of water and die.
The least that can happen to them
is much loss of time and lot of use
less driving.
The Automobile Club of Southern
California last year had to re-erect a
large number of its signs between the
Imperial valley and Ell Paso. 1t re-
ported two thirds of them had been
defaced by vandals.

ABSORBING SAVINGS
IN FEDERAL TAXES

Where is the motorist to get the
increasing sums of money constantly
being demanded in taxes?
President Coolidge recently warned
the nation that state governments
in 1925 cost twice as much as they
did in 1920, and observed that it
was very trying for federal officials
to save money while there are state
officials spending it with increasing
speed.
The question is being given seri-
Gus consideration by automobile own
ers of California who are asked to
vote an additional $8,000,000 in tax
es for gasoline at the coming cleo
ton, despite the announced $5,000,000
surplus in the state treasury for the
fiscal year just closed. There is plen-
ty of food for thought, according to
figures obtained from the Automo-
bile Club of Southern California.
Taking the motorists the country
over, it is found that in the United
States, the 1925 gasoline taxes were
83 per cent more than those of
1924, and four and a half times
those of 1928 Motorists of the ma
ton paid $146,000,000 in gasoline
tax last year, about ten per cent of
which was paid by California.
The report of the Bureau of In
dustrial Technology shows that it
costs the average automobile owner
more than $700 year to own and
operate car. These figures were
computed from the statistics of the

merce, the motor and accessory man
ufacturers associations, tire organi-

IMPORTANT STATE NEWS
HORSES IN ARIZONA
DECREASE 10000

Arizona appears to be losing the
range championship of the nation.
Only in the last year, according to a
state compilation, horses have de-
creased in number by nearly 5000
head, cattle have decreased nearly
10000 head, sheep have decreased
over $4,000 and goats have decreased
$500.
The season has been good one for
all livestock, but the open range ap-
pears to be getting into the past
tense.
Only about $4,000 horses of all sorts
were found in the state by the tax
assessors, or about 10000 fewer than
the number of automobiles. A work
horse is valued from $55 to $101 and
a saddler at S43.
Ordinary range cattle, were given
valuation of $15.07 each and milch
cows and bulls of S52. Sheep, with
a range unit valuation of SIS a head,
number about 100000. Swine, val
ued at $40, decreased in year by
a half, with only 1886 remaining.

OFFICERS
WOULD LEGISLATE
AGAINST REVOLVERS

Arizona's peace officers closed
their seci-annual convention at Pres
colt Tuesday following brief busi-
ness meeting, when the reports of the
officers were submitted and approved
and after four bills for presentation
before the next state legislature had
been framed.
The quartet of bills will include one
aimed to put an end to the possess
sion of small arms, possible of con-
cealment, and will be copied closely
after the California statute making
it a felony for any person previously
convicted of a felony to possess a
knife or gun and misdemeanor for
any other person to carry or own one.
A second bill will be for the restric-
tion of the trade in marihuana, there
being no state statute against this
drug at the present time.
