Plant BY the Moon
dearborn independently


Grandad refused to plant potatoes until the moon
was just right. Said they wouldn't "do WELL" Re-
fused to listen to the modern view that it was all
superstition.
Now science comes to the fore with the announce
ment that grandad was right 1t seems that scien-
fists now understand the nature of moonlight in
connection with plant growth and able to dupl-
cate in the laboratory the effects of moonlight.
Moonlight is reflected sunlight but differs from sun
light in that it is pclarzed light that is light waves
which vibrate in one direction, whereas ordinary
light waves vibrate in all directions 1t has been
found that certain plant growth is increased by
polarized light.
So grandad was justified in merely getting the
ground ready for planting and then going fishing
until the came his way in the proper quarter.
In ancient times when human life depended largely
on the success or failure of crops, much attention
was given to the time it was planted and compare
sons made. The orginators Of the mooll-phasc idea
knew by experience that in certain quarters Of the
moon they were sure of bumper CROP They knew
the effect but not the cause Even the early Scrip
speaks of "thc precious things brought forth by
the sun, and the precious things put forth by the
moon" Biblical commentators have not known how
to deal with the passage Along comes science, and
both Scripture and grandad can say, Il told you SO.

The Hand That Rocks the Cradle

The scourge Of scarlet fever, a disease that used
to cost thousands Of lives annually in this country
has been lifted And the hand that rocks the cradle
played dramatic role in the undoing Of the peril
Seven years ago obscure young Chicago ply
scian Dr. George Dick, believed he had found a
way to discover the germ Of scarlet fever and to ef
feet reliable cure. But no funds were available
for the vast research he had to undertake.
Had it not been for Dr. Gladys H. Dick, his wife
scarlet fever might still be killing thousands. She
found position as technician in Evanston hos
pital. Much of her work was mental. 1t was her
salary that enabled her husband to continue the
search that led to the successful discovery Of the
germ about two years ago and development Of an
efficient serum.
Those were five hard years for Dr. Dick and five
hard years for his wife They faced countless sacri
fices to give to the world fact of the highest value
"a means of saving life.
DR.. Gladys Dick is only example of woman
hood at work The story is typically modern, the
wife and husband both earning. But this is the
modern marriage relation brought to an ideal-the
woman helping to produce great gift for the world.

Enforced Voting

Official returns from the Australian elections Of
last November are now available It the frs.
election under the law which makes voting compul-
sorry and penalties non-voters Ninety-one per cent
of the electorate went to the polls larger proper
ton than before took part in an Australian
election. The best previous mark was in 1917, when
n per cent of the electorate voted BY 1922 the per-
centage dropped to 81.
The Australians call the law success. They arc
holding it up model for the rest of the world,
particularly to this country where scarcely half the
eligible voters trouble to- cast ballots even in nation
al elections. STILL do not believe this country
need be in any hurry to adopt the Australian system
The Australians appear confident that the law
will continue to prove as effective in future it has
in it's first trial. 1t may but experience with pro-
hbitpn in this country offers suggestive parallel
Prohibition was fairly effective for a few months
until the rebellion against it became widespread.
The Australians may have the same experience with
enforced voting as we have had with enforced mod-
ficaton Of appetite If any considerable number Of
Australians decide that the law is ass, the task
Of enforcing it will become an impossible one.
All this is aside from the main issue. One cleo
toral system is more successful than another if It
consistently puts better in office. There is no
evidence as yet available on that point from Aus
tralia and there is small to expect much inn
by the enforced addition to the electorate
Of thousands Of voters who hitherto have taken their
duties Of citizenship lightly that they refused to

suffrage proved that. We do not need more voters
