IDENTIFY the young folks Of today are
doing something besides committing
suicide, petting and rolling their
own. At the same time, however,
rural education seems to be falling
of-the farmers are sending their
boys and girls to town to school.
Over 500 rural schools, mostly in
southern Minnesota, have less than
10 pupils each, and an considerable
number of rural districts have closed
their schools, are transporting their
children to schools in adjoining dis
tricts and paying tuition there for
their schooling. The problems Of
town schools generally are increasing;
those Of the rural schools are grow
ing more simple. Over $1,000 chill
dren from the country attended vii
lage or city high schools last year
and the state paid these city and vii
lage schools a total of S974,S89.96 as
tuition for such nonresident stu
dents.

SOME ACTIVITIES OF THE
BUREAU OF CHILD
HYGIENE

A course of four lectures for
physicians on recent studies in sub
jects connected with the health of
young children, will be given in
different sections of the State dur
ring the winter, under the auspices
of the Bureau of Child Hygiene OF
the State Department of Health and
the local medical societies. according
to an announcement by Dr.. John S.
Fulton, Director of the Department
Established in 1922, the Bureau
of Child Hygiene is the youngest of
the eight Bureaus of the State
Department of Health. It's activities
laws under which it operates to
advisory care of mothers and chill
dran under school age. Care of the
health Of older children with special
reference to the control of catching
diseases and the medical inspection
of school children is included among
the activities of the Bureau OF
Communicable Diseases.
The child hygiene work ih each
county is carried on in cooperation
with the Deputy State Health Officer
or the Local Health Officers with the
assistance of the local public health
nurse. Much of it radiates from the
child health conferences that have
that are held at regular intervals.
Each year there has been a steady
increase in the number of children
who have been brought to the con-
ferences and constantly growing
interest on the part of the mothers
in the advice that is given on the
general health and care of the chill
dren. No medical treatments are
given at these conferences. A re-
port of each examination is always
sent to the family physician.
In 1925, over 5000 children were
brough to the conferences, an in
crease of more than thousand over
the number in attendance. in 1925
when 1898 were examined. OF the
5000 examined in 1926, nearly half
1869, were prospective first graders
children from five to seven years old
who were given health examination
during the summer months, ir
preparation for admission to school
The rest ranged in age from few
weel-s or months to five years. The
number of conferences held during
the year was 35S. or 4S more than
in 1925. The number OF places
visited was 205, an increase of IA
over the number in 1925. Every
county was visited.

EDUCATIONAL MEAT EXHIBIT
WINS GRAND PRIZE AT
SESOUI

The educational meat exhibit
shown comparatively by the In
stitute of American Meat Packers,
National Livestock and Meat Board.
and United States Department of
Agriculture during the recent Ses-
qui-Centennial Exposition has been
awarded a grand prize" by the
International Jury Of Awards. The
basic theme of the display was the
system of Federal meat inspection
conducted by the United States
Department of Agriculture to insure
a wholesome meat supply. Federal
inspectors were on hand to explain
the various phases of inspection work
and meat handling,
Special features of the exhibit
were mechanical models of modern
equipment for handling meat, a
white-tiled butcher shop which ad-
vertised federally inspected meats
only, and pictorial settings showing
sources of the Nations meat supply.

QUESTION AND ANSWERS ON
FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM

We are indebted to George J..
Seay, Governor Federal Reserve
Bank of Richmond, for copy OF
the little booklet of the above title,
which is issued for the information
of bankers, business men, college
students, and the public generally
by the Federal Reserve Bank of
Richmond. This is revised edition
of similar publication issued in
July, 1920, and is nearly twice the
size of the former volume. 1t
answers the practical questions most
frequently asked by bankers and
other business men interested in the
functions and activities of the
Federal reserve banks.
The book discusses the general
serve System, why it came into be-
ing, the elements of which it con-
sists (the Federal Reserve Board,
the Federal Advisory Council, the
Federal reserve banks) and defines
its services for and relations to the
Federal Government. 1t answers
questions as to how banks may be-
come members of the Federal Re-
serve System, and describes the adj
vantages of such membership.
1t describes in considerable detail
such functions of the Federal re-
serve banks as mobilizing reserves,
furnishing elastic currency, redis-
counting for member banks, open
market operations, etc. Such topics
as trade acceptances, bankers ac-
ceptances, reserves required OF
member banks, the check and. nom
cash collection systems, methods of
transferring funds and shipping
money, are also fully described.
Member banks will find the book
of interest since it is designed to
make clearer many points regarding
the operation of the Federal Reserve
Act; to non-member banks it will be
of value as explaining fhe manifold
advantages and privileges Of mem
bership; to the business man it
shows how the Federal reserve
banks safeguard and strengthen and
foster the growth of the financial,
industrial, and commercial interests
of the nation.
The book is fully and conveniently
indexed. Those desiring copies of
this book should write direct to the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond.

SWEDISH GOVERNMENT FINDS
BEER INTOXICATING

A communication from Lausanne,
Switzerland, tells of the principles of
an official declaration by Swedish
Government Committee, declaring
beers ranging in alcoholic content
from Is per cent to 80 per cent by
weight to be decidedly intoxicating
and dangerous. In 1925. the Swed
ish Government appointed com
mittee to study the propriety of laws
intended to reduce drunkenness
This committee was presided over by
the President of the Council of
Ministers Of Sweden, Mr.. Eckman
One of the proposals contained in
this report is that the law should be
altered to take into account beer, OF
Glass 2. that is, beer of 1.S per cent
to 80 per cent of alcohol by weight
The existing law treated such beer
as practically Notwithstanding The
committee asserts that it is quite
possible to get drunk on such
beverages and that the continual
use in large quantities of such beer
produces all the evils of alcoholism
In support OF this, series of
examples gathered in Stockholm are
offered showing the actual existence
of severe alcoholism exclusively or
principally due to the drinking of
so-called light beverages.

FRIDAY, JANUARY Z, 1927
THE NEW YEAR AND
nDnnvDVrrnN

The beginning of 1927 finds the
prohibition enforcement situation
better all along the line except in
regard to the production and dis
t1ibution of moonshine liquor. The
problem of checking the smuggling
of liquors along the sea coast is well
on it's way to solution. Great ad-
vances have been made in recent
months in the control of the produc-
ton of denatured alcohol and there
is no reason to believe that a suf
ficient number of officers cannot
handle this problem satisfactorily
A beginning has been made also in
checking the output of so-called
thigh power beer Even in COM
munities where alcoholic beer is
being produced, most of it is shot
with alcohol and is very unsatisfac-
tory as beverage.
The production of moonshine.
however. is still far too general
The nature of the prohibition agita-
ton directly contributes to the
violation of the law in this partic-
ular, the only practical end so far
reached by that agitation. 1t must
be realized by friends of prohibition
everywhere that the production of
moonshine liquor by small pro
ducers is matter which must be
controlled, in the main by local
authorities. Friends of law and
order should bend their efforts dur
ing the coming year to the placing
in office of local officials who will en-
force the law against moonshiners
and bootleggers.
A greater effort must also be
made toward the creation of an
overwhelming body of sentiment in
favor of the prohibition law. The
Methodist Episcopal Church is un-
dertaking within it's own communion
an extensive program of education
intended to instruct its young people
and solidify the convictions of
adults.
The people should also demand
the early enactment of the admin
istration program of prohibition
legislation now. before Congress.

JESUS is COMING BACK
SONIEDAY
Evangelist John Moses Baker

Evangelist John Moses Baker
Jesus said to His Disciples,
II am going now away,
But let not your hearts be troubled,
am coming back again someday.'
Every burden shall be lifted;
All tears forever wiped away,
And the wrongs will ali be righted,
When He comes that happy day
We are watching for His coming,
And will hail that glorious day,
When the King in all His glory,
Over all His Scepter sways,
