CONDITIONS TO BE IMPROVED

The American Health Congress is
meeting at Atlantic City. Among
those in attendance are representa-
tives of the American Public Health
Association, American Red Cross,
American Nurses Association, U. S.
Children's Bureau, U. S. Public
Health Service and other national
organizat lions, of which there are
many.
Secretary Hoover describes this as
evidence of world in protest
against disease. We have as yet
only in theory the standard of &
normal child. This should not be;
We should have the reality. More
over Secretary Hoover reminds us
that the normal child of the year
1900 will not satisfy us today.
Conditions revealed by the war
draft were an unpleasant revelation,
The Child Associations survey in Sc
cities showed that AZ % of the $4,000
children examined did not have what
is regarded the minimum for a
child, pint of milk per day, and
many of those who had milk were
not afforded the pasteurized variety.
1t also appeared there were Is pre-
ventable epidemics in these cities
over a four-year period. 1t Is. esti-
mated that nearly a quarter of the
ten million children in this country
are suffering from ma1nutrition and
nearly half of them have postural
defects.
National organizations may inspire
and direct movements which shall
result in improvement on these but
the york of prevention must be done
by the community through the par
ent or the guardian If 1t is to have
any considerable degree Of perm
anency.

An Appeal to Motorists


Preservation and protection Of
wild flowers has been urged in a
Nationwide radio appeal. For such
an appeal there could be no better
time than spring, when the early
wild flowers will soon come into
bloom. Protection of spring flowers
means flowers in the summer and
again the next spring.
This radio appeal was directed
especially to motorists, who, 1t
seems. are the greatest despoilers of
nature. Look and let look" was
the slogan suggested by the broad
caster. 1t is a much more unselfish
practice than the look and-pic GUS
tom or habit, but 1t seems the
average motorist when he or she sees
wild flower or a bit of colorful
foliage at the roadside experiences
an irresistible impulse to pluck 1t
CASUALLY roots and alb and to utterly
disregard the right of those who
may follow to look upon this vegeta-
ton in its natural state.
Society must soon come to the
realization that the wild flowers are
being exterminated as rapidly as
the number of automobiles and i'm
proved highways increase. There
are no longer inaxl,anatihls snnraas

THE NEWS FROM THE NORTH

The lure of the Arctic may not be
so great now that the Norge returns
from what purports to have been
fairly thorough reconnaissance of the
area without having dis
covered land, which theory had con-
cluded must exist there. Those who
reasoned from certain signs, from
tides, from birds and other indica-
tons, that land must be in the I'M
known part of the Arctic are now
confronted with evidence that signs
sometimes fail. No way-stations for
trans-Arctic travel have been found,
but it seems fairly well demonstrated
that suitably constructed airships
may traverse this route in compare
tive safety.
The interest, which has been
aroused is not likely to recede before
improvements in facilities for Arctic
travel and communication are had,
Our government several years ago ar
rived at the conclusion commercial
enterprise could not be depended upon
to open up the desired facilities for
communication throughout Alaska
and set about establishing them. To-
day there are in Alaska 81 radio send
ing and receiving stations.
1t is interesting to learn the route
of the message finally received at
Washington from the Norge. This
came from the Norge's radio to
Nome; by Army radio. Nome to Fair
banks, Alaska; by Army land tele.
graph from Fairbanks to Valdez
Alaska; by Army Signal Corps cable
from Valdez to Seattle, Washington;
by Army radio from Seattle to For,
Douglas, Utah; relayed thence to Fort
Leavenworth, Kansas. thence to the
receiving station of the Army Sigma,
Corps in the Munitions Building
Washington.

The little top spun round and round
With such cosy, comfy sound
That Uncle John closed both his eyes
And through his whiskers gave three
signs.
Yes, he was thinking of those happy
days when he was boy and spun
tops, played humble peg and ran
hoppity race on one leg. Just min
ute, before you read more of this
story, Little Reader. you may have
forgotten that Uncle John Hare was
visiting the little rabbit bungalow in
the dear Old Bramble Patch. Yes, he
had just arrived in the last story and
had given the bunny boy top.
"You know how to spin top all
right" laughed Uncle John Hare, look
ing admiringly at his small bunny
nephew. Then, crossing his hind legs,
he smiled at the Old Red Rooster.
Goodness me. what great, long
hind legs you have" exclaimed the
old fowl.
First time you have noticed that I"
asked Uncle John?
"And your ears, too" went on the
Old Red Rooster. You ought to be
able to hear watch tick mile away"
1--WE hares are larger than rabbits
have much longer hind legs and long
or ears" explained tn old gentleman
hare. 1--WE also change our coats twice
a year"
You don't say So" crowed the Old
Red Rooster. when do you do that?
I didn't know you were so particular
about style"
'"Ha, hal. laughed good-natured
Uncle John, That's not the reason"
Needs PRESSING" smiled the old
fowl. with a wiggle waggle Of his tail
feathers.
Safety first" answered funny Uncle
John. IT wear a white coat in winter
white, like the snow, so that Danny
Fox and Mr.. Wicked Wolf may not
easily make me out. A white body is
very indistinct against a white back
ground"
"Oh. I see." said the Old Red Roos-
ter Mighty clever of YOU"
Better give the credit to Loving
Mother Nature" answered nice Uncle
John Hare. "!She sees to it that all
her children are taken care of. And
when spring comes around my coat
changes to brown in order to better

'Tick, took, tickerty took,
And out on the porch of her little

Stepped the Cuckoo Bird to say with a
trill;

the garden. leaving the little rabbits
to entertain Uncle John.
"a very useful little bird" he
laughed, as the tiny clock house door
hid her from view. "She tells the time
