Sun Stops Badness

Physicians and hair specialists are
now advocating going bare-headed,
where climatic conditions permit, as a
preventive of badness. One of the
contributing causes of loss of hair is
a too-tight head covering. The dis
carding of the hat or cap removes
this structure and also allows free ac-
tion of sun and air on the scalp. A
normal person loses about forty hairs
each day. If these, on woman with
unbobbed head, are less than six
inches long and form One-third or
more of the combings of three days,
then there is some scalp trouble which
should have medical attention. Too
many young hairs falling from a
mans head may be detected by the
uncut ends.

Minds Well Trained

In India and other parts Of the
Orient, some natives have developed
the ability to sleep a predetermined
number of hours to a remarkable de-
gree. An Indian scholar, for instance,
slept three days and awoke within a
half-minute of the time set for aris-
ing, a traveller there reports. Others
in that country are said to have such
power of mental concentration that
they can submit to minor surgical
operations without apparent pain.
Generations of study along the lines
of applied psychology have produced
these faculties, in the opinion of in
estigators.-Popular Mechanics Mag

"The king can do no wrong" is
legal axiom that still holds good in
England. James l so firmly believed
in this principle that he carried it to
the extent OF claiming divine right for
everything he did. Even now the
kings person is absolutely exempt
from arrest. He never can be sued in
a court of law, nor is he required to
attend and give evidence, says the
Montreal Family Herald. AS he is
above the judges, he has the power Of
remitting any punishment imposed on
q subject.
A curious result of the kings legal
position is that he is debarred from
arresting or giving information that
will lead to the arrest of criminal,
since nobody can be both judge and
prosecutor.

Government and Liberty

The people who exercise the power
are not always the same people over
whom 1t is exercised; and the self
government spoken of is not the gov
ernment of each by himself. but OF
each by all the rest The will Of the
people, moreover, practically means
the Will of the most numerous or the
most active part of the people; the
majority, or those who succeed in
making themselves accepted as the
majority; the people. consequently,
may desire to oppress a part Of their
number: and precautions are as much
needed against this as against any
other abuse of power.--John Stuart

President Coolidge and General

$4,000 to be used by the federal
horticultural board to eradicate
the Thurberia boil weevil menace
in Arizona, according to informa-

the appropriation is now at the
disposition of the house, favorable
action having been secured in
every other quarter.
The Thuberia weevil is believ-

PHOENIX, Ariz., June 19. -
Entrance Of Mexican troops into
the United States and of Ameri-
can troops into Mexico on the oc-
casion of the celebration at No
gales of the eighth anniversary of
the signing of the armistice of the

rangement, according to informa-
ton received here from Senator

The troop movement is planned
as a part of patriotic program
being arranged by the Ridge-Igo
post of the American Legion at

chief Of staff of the war depart.
ment, in communication to Sen.
ator Cameron stated that sympa-

given by the war department and

ceipt Of advices from the COVER
nor Of Arizona that he has no OBJ
lection to the entry of Mexican
! troops without arms into the state
for the purposes indicated.
IN the opinion of the comanding
general of the Eight Corps Area
that arms will not be necessary
for the celebration and that the
carrying of arms by Mexican
troops on the American side Of
the border and by American
troops on the Mexican side Of the
border may be possible source
of unpleasant developments.
It is understood that the char
acter of the celebration will tend
