Business Not Harmed

With the presidential year nearly three-fourths

election is not harmful to business in an employment
survey made public by the Department of Labor
Business is said to be definitely on the upgrade
Employment is increasing and conditions in basic in
dustries are reported much improved

throughout the country during August was regarded
generally satisfactory" the labor department said
The depression which marked the buildings trade
industry, because of building in the years i'm

ton programs of large dimensions are under way
throughout the country. Skilled building tradesmen
are finding employment. In addition extensive public
improvements under way

posture and play. The children are
taught about the Importance of
play for mental hygiene and they
learn posture by marching, by gym
nastics, by blackboard demonstra-
tons and by the study of posture in
the school and on the street.
In the higher grades special at
tention is given to the way in which
the body is constructed, and par
ticularly to the development Of the
skeleton and the muscles.
In November one of the chief
considerations is the prevention of
colds. The younger grades are told
about fresh air, about tbs removal
of outside wraps in the classroom
and about the proper use Of clean
handkerchief.
The middle grades are told about
the care of overshoes and wraps.
The higher grades study not only
the development Of the breathing
system and of the blood circulation,
but also about the germs associated
with colds, the methods of prevent
ing colds through avoidance of
contacts and through proper ven
tilation and clothing.
Such systematic instruction is
bound to develop more healthful
citizenry for the future.

The Freaks Have It

This is a day of freaks as we'll as
feats. Science breeds yellow rats
and blue monkeys and women swim
the English Channel. In spite of
speed we still have walking races.
The stunt flier divides honors with
the fiagpole sitter To cap the
climax, an Ohio shoemaker starts
out on roller skates not only to
circle the world, but to cover 100000
miles in seven years. How do folks
get that way?
The idea Of excelling, whether in
the latest, or the oldest field, still
is supreme. The man who thinks
he can be champion even in a
barrel-piling contest or a woman
who thinks she can Guido every
one else even in dish washing,
glories in the thought. 1t is a good
thing they do. This would be a
tough world in which to live if only
new things challenged our ambition.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

AS nearly all of the children have
defective teeth, dental hygiene
may be the problem Of first con-
sideration.
In communities where dietary
habits have persisted which involve
the drinking of tea and coffee by
children under the age Of twelve,
health education III proper diet
may be the health factor of most
Importance.
The department of public in
struction of the State of Pennsyl-
vania has worked out a series of
health lessons for various grades
which continue throughout the
school year and which indicate the
manner in which systematic health
training may be carried on.
For instance, during September
children in the first grade learn
about the Importance of cleaning
the face, hands, neck and ears; in
the second grade, the chief atten-
ton is given to the hair and nails;
in the third grade, to the mouth,
the teeth and the fingers; in the
higher grades, infection from.
clothing, books and human con-
facts are studied, as well as the
manner in which the body cells
work to overcome disease.
In October the lessons are con-
cerned chiefly with the question of

A Worn-Out Shout

Senator Reed continues to shout
that Hoover was responsible for fix
ing the price of wheat. He thinks
he is going to carry the corn belt
with that argument, but the war is
over, even as a political issue. Two
dollars and twenty cent wheat taxes
it's place with rationed sugar, Siz
cent cotton and the Government
operation of railroads. Looking
back, we can see quite a few mis-
takes, but as a general proposition
we came out very well.
If the farmer did not get quite
as much for his wheat as he could
have wished, the rest of us did net
get quite as much wheat.
1t will be long time before we
forget the corn bread, rice flour and
that noblest undertaking of all, the
attempt to make us like whale meat,
but who is going to vote on it ten
years afterwards?
Who believes that Herbert Hoover
tried to help England at the expense
of his own countrymen? Who be-
lieves that he and the vast majority
of officials were not striving to be

Air Mail Proves Worth

A IR mail routes as established
IA and operated by the United
States Government have done more
to demonstrate the commercial pos
sibilities of aviation than anything
else that has happened in this
country.
These routes have been carefully
adjusted to the capacity of average
planes and pilots, Nothing unrea-
sonable has been demanded. The
result is convincing demonstra-
ton. There have been fewer serious
accidents and fewer fatalities.
The Postoff1ce Department was so
we'll satisfied with what had been
accomplished that it reduced air
mail rates Aug. /. This led to an
immediate, but not unexpected in
crease. The transcontinental lines
are carrying so per cent more mail
than they did six weeks ago.
Feeder lines are benef1ting by the
increase. Extension Of the service
not only in this country but to
Latin America is proceeding steadily.
All this shows what can be done
through a careful and conservative
program of expansion.

MINE planes start on a nonstop
4N flight from New York to Los
Angeles. Not one makes it. What
can we conclude, except that the
airplane, as thus far perfected. is
not suited to a 5000 mile journey?
Even with stops, a 3.0oo-mile jour-
ney seems too much! Of thirty
seven airplanes setting out from
New York to Los Angeles with light
loads and the privilege of making
several stops, only twenty-five COM
pleted the trip. Of the TRANSACT
lantic flights undertaken, a majority
have resulted in disaster.
In spite of few brillian+ exploits,
filters have demonstrated nothing so
distinctly as that the airplane is
limited in its sphere Of operations
What Lindbergh, a Goebel, or a
Chamberlin may be able to do in
specially constructed airplane is one
thing. What the average man can
do in the average plane is quite an
other.
Spectacular feats are justified to
stimulate popular interest, but from
a commercial standpoint, aviation
must depend on average people and
stock products.

Health Magazine.
A MONG the questions which
IN Prof. j. Mace address consid-
ers particularly important for con-
sideration by the teacher at the be-
ginning of school are the following:
Is the temperature in the school
room conducive to comfort and good
mental activity?
Are the children using their eyes
under proper conditions as to light?
Is the school furniture properly
adjusted?
Are there any physical defects,
such as poor sight and hearing, that
need to be considered?
DO the pupils have sufficient rest
between strenuous periods of work?
Is there sufficient time for lunch
eon2
Are the pupils unhappy in their
work; if SO, is the unhappiness due
to some health condition.
What opportunities are there for
pupils to practice health habits in
school?
Naturally in schools individual
cation is a difficult matter. 1t is
therefore important to plan the
health training so that it will affect
the majority of the children and
take care Of the worst problems.

DeCenCy Is Shown

Hugo SHINES, the young German
millionaire, who was charged sew
eral days ago with attempting to
defraud the government, has re-
signed from seventeen corporations.
If he did this voluntarily, he
showed a decent sense Of propriety.
If he was compelled to do it by pub
lie opinion, Germany has something
to be thankful for.
Neither American millionaires,
nor the American public are so
sensitive.
Doheny, Sinclair, Blackmere, and
O'Neil offered no resignation when
they were charged with a prac-
tically similar offense. Even the eff
forts of John D. Rockefeller, Jr.,
failed to GUST Robert w. Stewart as
chairman of the board of the Stand
ard Oil company of Indiana.
News dispatches hint that SHINES
was forced to resign through
American influence. If that is true,
American influence is not only
stronger, but better directed, in
Germany than in this country.
