ended tour of the healthmobile of the

Shores. Starting out early in June
and remaining in the field until the
end Of September, eight counties
Prince Georges, Charles, st. Mary's,

were made at 81 places and SO con-
ferences were held. During the trip
the "health bus" covered approx
mately 1000 miles.
Of the 1917 children examined, 1872,
considerably over half, were in need
of follow-up care of some sort. One
out of every four-367-had unheal-
thy tonsils; 1856 had adenoids and in 81
the air passages were so clogged up
that the children were listed as
"mouth breathers." One out of every
five-366-had furnished or decayed
teeth, and the Importance Of an early
visit to the dentist was impressed
upon the parents. Vaccination against
smallpox had been neglected in the

YES, WE HAVE NO NEWS.

Real news this week has been as
scarce as hairs on whales back and
has been harder to discover than AM
erica. Columbus did that very thing
just 435 years ago yesterday, and he
had a much easier time of it than re-
porters have searching for news when
there isn't any.
All Columbus had to do was to
stand on the deck of his vessel and
wait for land to appear. But it is
different with newspapers. They have
to discover enough good reading ma
terial each week before a certain time,
write it, compose it in type and get it
before the public on specified hour
of the day of publication.
After the paper has been published,
there will be many come around and
say, Didn't you know that the An
cient Order of Animals was celebrat-
ing Founders Day next tuesday,"
No, the staff didn't know that such a
thing was going to happen, but if
some person who knew all the details
would have sent it to the publisher,
then it would have appeared along
with other news.
Usually there is plenty of news,
but sometimes there isn't, and if peo-
pie who knew of something happening
would only take the time to send it to
The Republican or to telephone for a
reporter to call, then it would be of
much more interest and benefit to all
the people of the county. How about

COLUMBUS WASN'T GUESS
ING.

When Lindbergh took off for Paris,
you may remember, he was lovingly
advertised throughout the world as
"The Flying Fool"
Very soon after Lindbergh landed
in Paris, he gave the newspaper men
to understand that he did not relish
the title that had been so fondly con-
ferred upon him. He respectfully re-
quested that he be called something
else. Charles A. Lindbergh would do
very we'll for a name, he intimated.
"The Flying Fool" was nickname
that implied much. 1t implied that
Lindbergh was young harum-scar-
UNI who just jumped into an old crate
and flew toward Paris, and just hap
pened to land there. Lindbergh re-
scented any such intimation. He knew
that he wasn't guessing when he
started out for Paris. He landed his
two wheels and his tail-skid exactly
where he set out to land them, be-
cause knew what he was about. He
had figured it all out in advance. He
was not flying fool, nor was he a
wild youngster who happened to be
lucky. He was a painstaking pioneer.
Somehow, Christopher Columbus
has never lived down the reputation
he was given by some Of his contem-
poraries. That reputation is that Of
a lucky dreamer who just sailed and
sailed, on wild-goose chase, and fin
ally happened to run into the West
Indies.
Referring to Columbus own jour-
nal of his voyages of discovery, in a
book published by Scribners, called
"The Mortimer, Columbus and Cab
ot," this journal plainly shows that
Columbus was not guessing nor trus-
ting to luck when he. set out to find
the New World.
He had an air-tight contract drawn
up between himself and the sover.
eigns of Spain, specifying exactly
what his rewards were to be for dis.
covering the new lands and claiming
them for Spain.
He took an enormous supply Of
dime-store goods along to trade to the
wild inhabitants for gold and other
articles of value. The items he es.
pecially stocked for the trip were lit.
tie bells and glass beads. He knew
what would please the hearts of the
savages.
Columbus did not merely "sail OF
and on and on" He steered a def.
mite course toward land which he
knew to exist. He had seen the land
charted on maps from the Orient
Maps possibly made by the remote an.
cestors of the American red men, who
had gone out to the western world ir
ages past, and had returned, leaving
colonists who became red savages.
Columbus knew where he was 60
