TIE DEMON OF FEAR

The mental causes which lead to
disease must be understood if one
is to realize health in its fullest
measure. These health lessons will
not be complete if you are nv. taught
to understand the valuable help
which this study can bring to you.
The human mind grows either into
a help for health or a hindrance to
it. There is no neutral gro.nd.
If we neglect t create a healthy
mental viewpoint we gro worse in
this respect as we grow older--just
the same as the lines of the face

May stumble Il rough life with no
clear conception of where they are
going and, buff ted about by their
environment, gradually develop a
synical attitude which sees the pto-
maine poisoning in the oyster and
not the pearl.
One of the strongest emotions we
are born with is that vicious, devour-
ing monster called "Fear." Few
realize how much this instinct guides
and shapes t.eir lives, especially
when dee. led through the care
less habits of parents training their
children to think Of Gear more than
of courage.
The small child, born with the fear
of physical disco mfort, is hourly told

and suspicion Of everything with
which he comes in contact during his
life! Such teaching makes him
fearful of play, fearful of eating,
and repellent toward those beauti-
full emotions which would naturally
develop at tn. age of puberty.
Boys are not handle. pped in this
respect as much as girl and conse-

Washington, March 3.-The desire
for self-government among our So
called dependencies seems to be
unanimous.
The Philippines, Porto Rico, the
Canal Zone, the Virgin Islands and
American Samoa have all been heard
from and there is no doubt some dis
satisfaction among the natives Of
Guam, Wake Island and the Midway
Islands.
The Filipinos and Porto Ricans
have legislatures but are under gov
ernor generals appointed by the
president. Both have resident COM
missioners in Washington. The Ca
nal Zone is a military reservation
and administered by the war depart
ment. The Virgin Islands are un-
der naval control and so are Guam,
Samoa, Wake and the Midways.
The latest complaint comes from
the Canal Zone. which has a popula-
ton of about 10000, including more
than 5000 Americans.
Unable to vote or select any Of
their public officials, civilians Of the
Zone hold themselves nevertheless
citizens Of the United States and
hence entitled to some of the priv
ileges Of our democratic form Of
government.
This sentiment appears to have
come to a head recently with the
removal of the federal district at
torney for the Canal Zone on rec
ommendation of the war department.
Protest is made not particularly
against the dismissal, but about the
secret manner in which his office
was investigated and the failure of
the United States government to
give any accounting Of the investi-
CATION or otherwise to indicate rea-
sons for the dismissal.
F. Edward Mitchell, the district
attorney, filed charges against
Judge Guy H. Martin. Judge Mar
tin in turn filed charges against
Mitchell. Both men were presi-
Dental appointees.
According to information gath
cred at the war department here,
the charges We're Of a legal rather
than criminal nature.
The war department sent Colonel

port, the Judge was allowed to re-

Editorial Comment
Ragpickers' Fair


The Poire aux Puces, one of the oldest insti-
tutions in Paris and probably one of the larg-
est and most heterogeneous secondhand mar
kets in the world, has come in for attack lately.
The little community of Saint-Ouen, in which
the fore operates, has complained to the pre-
lecture of the Seine contending that the foirc
should be abolished for hygienic and esthetic
reasons. The organized ragpickers have pro-
tested, naturally enough, against the removal
OF their ancient market; but it is predicted
that the authorities may give greater consider
alton to the Identification of the periphery OF
Paris than to the traditions, venerable as they
are, of the market.
Though often frequented through its Ions
career by connoisseurs of the arts, the FOirc
aux Puces. or Marche aux Puces ('Flea Fair
or Flea Market" as it's name suggests) is not
the most pleasing Of the street markets OF
Paris. Yet it must be considered as forming q
part Of the curious and picturesque series Of
markets which embraces the Marche aux
Fleurs, the Marche aux Oiseau, the Bourse aux
Timbres (where those with the stamp collect
ing mania prowl about in search of rarities),
the Foire AL Pain d'Epice and the Foire aux
Coutes Cat which needy artists appeal over
the heads Of the critics and dealers directly
to the men in the street). Flowers, birds,
stamps, spiced bread and paintings are among
things that one may buy in the streets Of
Paris, from merchants having no shops, but
offering nevertheless wares always worth look
ing at and frequently worth buying-especial-
ly when one considers the moderate prices
asked.
But at the Foire aux Puces thousands of diff
ferent articles are on sale at absurdly low
prices. Almost anything purchasable at Sec
ondhand may be found there particularly bits
of bric-a-brac, tapestry, furniture and other
objects of interior decoration; although the
street stands, carts and little shops that have
accumulated along the streets and in the great
open space adjoining Paris just outside the
Porte de Clignancourt bear vast array of new
handkerchiefs, towels, neckties, hosiery, new
and old hardware, machinery and thousand
other things as well. 1t is said that seldom is
the price paid more than francs. The mar
ket is open only on Sundays, and large crowds.
seeking useful and decorative objects pass
along.
It is chiefly the ragpickers and junk COL
lectors who bring wares to the foire. What
they offer there are articles selected from the
weeks accumulation of odds and ends, pieces
they regard as possessing an individual value
fapart from the general run of cloth, leather,
copper, brass, iron and wood that they have
gathered in for wholesale disposal.
It is said that the Foire aux Puces originated
in decree Of Philippe lie Hardi. If so, it is
nearly six centuries old. At any rate, it has
existed in Paris for long time, and its name
appears to have had no adverse effect upon
it's clientele

every way less sedentary than that of decade
back. If there is a class waxing fatter, it COM
prises those good housewives whose labors
have been lightened by modern appliances and
who have not entered irto the more active life

Viewed in this light the feeble efforts OF
middle-aged vcl.,en of leisure to give up candy
and to undergo celicthenics are somewhat
pathetic. Once cffiicted with obesity they

Meeting the Japanese

BY RUTH DEWEY GROVES

Marye, Dear:
Well, maybe you know better than
l do what's going on in the world.
But one thing is certain: the craze
you youngsters have for freedom and
thrills and the way you soon get
used to shocking changes is going to
make you lose sight Of what it leads
to. It isn't so much the harm in
the first step that counts as the
fact that it's easier to take the next
one. And the step leading to what
You will wear next leaves me gasp
ing for breath when think Of it.
I asked Florence if she didn't think
men would get so used to seeing
girls half undressed they'd be too
sick Of the sight to want to marry
one of them.
"The men shouldn't kick; they're
getting the Breaks" she said, what
ever that means. From other remarks
she made I got the impression that
it wouldn't matter if we all went
back to the garden Of Eden for our
wardrobes because it's companion
ship that counts nowadays.
Well, guess it must be, judging
from the appearance of some of the
girls l see. But If marriage falls
off I'll not be surprised because l
don't think much Of your modern
companionship either. There's no
variety in it. You girls all try to
usurp mans prerogatives. Pretty
soon q woman will be just the same
as one man to another man. You
smoke his tobacco, drink his strong
liquor, drive his cars, wear his hair
cuts.
Now that's all very sporting of
you, maybe, but where's the thrill in
it for the man? They've always had
men to drink and swear and play
with them. Seems to me they would
like women to be different.
With dearest love,
NON.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: E. A. H. writes: 81 will
be very appreciative IL you will tell
me what to do for intestinal 'ndiees-
ton and what diet would be best. I
also have eternal headaches"
Answer: One symptom Of intes-
final Indigestion is excessive gas. II
you will follow the menus l print in
this column each Saturday am sure
you will get very satisfactory re-
suits in relief Of your intestinal dis
tress. If you will write again, the
next time giving your name and ad-
dress, will +, glad to send you a
special article on the cause and cure
of headaches.
Question: Fred D. asks: do you
think the following is advisable for
ones MONDAY lunch: glass of
matted milk, one-half pound o. figs?
Would ! get thin if the diet were
continued ?"
Answer: One glass of matted
milk would be stimulating lunch,
but the half pound Of figs would be
too much to use at the same time.
One would certainly not get thin on
this diet, as this noon meal is really
a fattening one.
Question: r. S. asks: "What is
the cause of dandruff and has diet
anything to do with it? What is
the cure ?"
Answer: Dandruff may be caused
by specific microorganism which
burroughs into the scalp and loos-
ems the epidermis. However, the
usual cause is from not keeping the
head clean. One with dandruff
should wash the scalp daily for a
week or two, applying cocoanut oil
after the hair has been thoroughly
dried. Any Of the hair tonics con-
tanning alcohol are stimulating to
the scalp and assist in encouraging
a better circulation of blood around
the hair roots. Hair brushes and
combs should be sterilized frequently
and always kept clean.

LETTER &M

dismissed. Two months after Col.
Trent left the zone, Mitchell form
ally requested his vacation and sailed
for New York. He was not notified
of his dismissal until the day he
landed.
The, complaint that comes from
the Canal Zone is based on the fact
that no explanation has ever been
given to the people over whom
Mitchell held such important author
ity. They don't know to what extent
Mitchell is supposed to have been
unfit or to what extent Judge Mar
tin was indicated. In Washington,
one finds that thu Trent report is
held confidential and that there is no
prospect that it will be made public.
The Panama American vigorously
protests that government of the
people, by the people and for the
people" becomes joke when public
officers of the highest court in the
community are discharged summar-
lily, and apparently for cause, and the
public which is compelled, and has
been compelled, to rely upon their
mercy and justice is not informed
as to the reasons" The Canal Zone
residents are "entirely at the mercy
and judgment Of fallible executives
in Washington"
This newspaper, in the issue a
copy of which has been sent to your
correspondent, speaks of whisper
ings that infest the Canal Zone
and audacious stories" circulated
while the report lies buried in the
archives.
1T is absolutely impossible" says
the editor, Ito believe that such 9
state of affairs could exist in the
United States. There, when an i'm.
portant officer Of the court is dis.
charged, the facts are not withheld
and it would be impossible to do So
The Alice-in-W onderland touch OF
district attorneys and marshals sud.
denly vanishing into space would
never be tolerated there"
That goes for federal judges in
the states; u. S. attorneys may be
dismissed without explanation. Most
public officials except appointeei
are not subject to dismissal on sc.
crct grounds. But that fact probably
won't appease the voteless people Of
the Canal Zone, who have to be con.
tent with the officials we send them
and remain in ignorance both as Il
why they're appointed and why
they're fired.

This Is an Age of Hope

Clarence barrow, who laid aside his rose
colored glasses long ago, thinks we are in Sc
rious danger of losing our freedom.
1.-THE yearning and desire for freedom come
from the poor" he says. THE rich have 1t
anyway and don't care about it. Freedom and
liberty produce wealth, and wealth destroys
liberty.
Liberty can't live long in rich country"
There is no denying that we are rich coun-
try. Are we, as Darrow says, getting to the
point where we don't care what happens to
our liberties SO long as we continue to make
money? A great many students of the times
share Darrow's fears.
It isn't surprising that they do. For the
new is always strange and a bit terrifying.
And we in the United States have embarked
on new kind of life. We are building up a
culture that is not like any culture that ever
appeared before. 1t is founded on new basis
the removal from the path of every man Of
every material discomfort that science or
machinery can conquer.
Of course, we haven't perfected it yet.
There are still slums in our big cities; there
are still the soft coal fields, for instance, where
thousands of men and women are fighting dire
laboring man in America has more luxuries
than the rich man had generation ago.
We don't often comprehend what revolu-
ton this has involved. Did you ever realize
that until very recently it was taken for grant
ed, by everyone, that the great bulk of the
population of even the most prosperous coun-
try always would be very poor? Did you eve,
realize that everyone not long ago assumed
that it was impossible to form a society IN
which the huge majority of inhabitants would
not be forever submerged in poverty?
We have gotten away from that Without
exactly meaning to, We have set up our societ,
on new basis. We have decided that pros
perity can extend to ALL We take it 70,
granted that carpenters and masons who are
building house shall drive to work in thei,
own automobiles automobiles that are Otter
more expensive than the car Of the man whose
house they are building. We take it for grant
ed that factory hand may buy radio, dec!
his wife in stylish clothes and send his bow (
college if he sees fit.
And all of this means that we are erectins
an entirely new civilization. We have com
pletely reversed some of the most fundamen
tai tenets of all other cultures. No wondcl
that some men, like Mr. barrow get pessim
istic! Our new edifice cannot be measured b,
the old yardstcks.
But there is more reason for hope than fo
encouragement. We are making for ourselve
Z new Decentralization from material care,
from privation, from heart-breaking worry
from the chains Of want. We are broadenin,
our horizons; why should we think that tn,
vision OF spiritual freedom need be lost?
This is not an age for pessimists 1t is al
age Of hope. We are on the threshold of a new
day. The cleaning skyscrapers Of our grea
cities are symbolic-symbolic of the shinin,
white cities of brotherhood for which we ar
even now laying the foundations.
