SECRETS OF

IF your son or daughter is at a
l. boarding school, you have a di-
rect personal interest in boarding
school conditions in their relation
TO catching" disease There is
always the question OF crowded
dOrmitories, crowded classroomS,
poor ventilation, bedding, personal
clothing, and even food, considered
as so many media for the trans
mission of preventable diseases.
1t must be sal id, however, to
the credit Of the modern high.
class boarding schools, that
disease prevention conditions there
are generally better than in
private homes and public schools.

that diptheria, scarlet fever and

Then, when finally the infection
creeps in, it flares out in a really

which is more serious than the
last. After a time the rounds
cannot be distinguished, and for

patients in early and later stages
OF the disease have to he mrsed

tllated and cleaned, and complica-
tons arise which turn the cpl

The author believes that It
would make but little difference
in public schools IL they did abol-
ish their precautions, so long az
the preparatory schools continued
to offer so impenetrable a barrier
to infectious disease.
In the interests of the scholars,
II is better that they should have
their infectious diseases at
home, apart from a large congre-
cation of children Of the same
age. If they must have them at
school, they had better have them
before puberty than during it,
and in the small community of a
private school rather than in the
much larger community of
public school. To abolish holiday
quarantine precautions altogether
would spread the incidence of dis
ease over a number Of terms in
stead of crowding an unmanage-
able number of cases into a few
terms at long intervals.
It is not REASONABLE for school

do. Their parents were too law,
too stupid or too Indifferent to
enforce any sensible. systematic,
discipline on the children, or on
themselves.
l know a talented young man,
q genius. He is peeved about his
starvation. He thinks the world
doesn't appreciate great souls.
He considers himself a MARTYR.
He isn't. He could eat well, sleep
warmly, live in beautiful places
and feed his soul with hyacinths
If he would just do a few things
which he doesn't like to do.
Keep regular hours. Get up in
the morning, Work with some
sort of system. Fill his orders
promptly. Be polite. These things
are discipline. however, and my
friend has great contempt for
discipline. He says 1t Is a habit
for pigs.
There are others. with all our
progress, all our wealth. all our
freedom and opportunity. the
number of wrecked and wasted
lives increases and the wailins

sionment grows louder and louder.

why Men Lie to Women
WHY do men lie to the women
w they love?
Why will man never offer the
naked truth to q woman without
dressing it all up in the seven
wells Of Salome?
Don't deny il. A man will lie
to the woman he loves sooner than
to anybody else on earth. 1t is
one Of the proofs that he loves
her! His love Is never absolutely
dead until hA stops taking the
trouble TO camouflage himself and
begins carelessly telling her the
bitter truth.
IL 1t feminine suspicion that
causes the first masculine lie-or
is it the masculine lie that causes
the first feminine suspicion? Did
the hen or the egg come first?
Is it a fact that no woman will
believe the simple truth, or is it
merely a masculine fallacy? What
ever the answer, it never occurs
to the average man to tell a Wom-
an the TRUTH so long as he can
think Of anything more cOnvinc-
ing or interesting to tell her.
Yet nine times out NJ ten, II a
man would only tell her the honest
truth a woman would forgive him
for almost any crime on earth
and blame it all on the other
woman.
A woman always suspects that
man is lying to her long before she
catches him. And HE always sus-
poets that she suspects him long
before he begins lying to her.
Many a sensible woman has gone
into marriage determined to place
BLIND FAITH in her husband, be.
lieving that faith begets faithful
ness-only to awaken too late to
the knowledge that her husband
was lying to her quite as casually
and habitually as other women's
husbands.
Many an idealistic man has
started out with the honest deter.
mination to he "on the square"
with a. woman--only to discover
that he was living under just as
deep and dark a. cloud of suspicion
as all the faithless husbands
around him.
In one case the egg came first
in the other, the hen.
A mans faith In the policy IT
never telling the truth to a woman
Is SO firmly rooted that even
though she may catch him in an.
other woman's arms. he will vow
to heaven that it was only her
imagination" and that her eyes
are deceiving her.
A woman's faith in the policy Of
never believing man is so deeply
implanted that she won't even be-
lieve him when he tells her that he
Is sick and tired of her!
Oh, what's the use? A woman
can't bear to HEAR the truth and
man can't bear to TELL it. And
as long as this dizzy old world
keeps going round. the hen will
go right on laying the egg and the
egg in turn will become 2, hen-and
nobody can tell you which of them
STARTED 1t all!

Smiles Still Seen in Dew
aStated Area.

A visit to some of the homes east
of the Belt railroad, between Wal
nut and Ohio Sts., devastated by the
tornado which struck Indianapolis
Wednesday night, proves this.
Porches are torn off of these homes,
chimneys are gone, and with the
cold breezes misery turks on every
side, But with all this there are
still smiles.
In one house on E. North St,
where chimneys are gone and where
several small children are huddled
in one room with n frail mother,
they have contrived to build fire in
an old di1apidated stove with the
pipe poked through the window
