Members of the Great Falls AID club
devoted their program to a discussion
of the feasibility of changing the caIen-
dar year into IS months with 20 days
to each month. The movement orig
mated several years ago in ottawa,
Canada, and was later brought to the
attention of the League OF Nations
which appointed national committees
to make a survey and submit reports
at a future international conference.
Advantages of the 28-day months were
pointed out by M. T. Messelt who had
been supplied with data from the ma
tional committee. While some of the club
members agreed that it would be a means
of simplifying some phases OF business,
others commended that it would cause o
confusion In long term contracts and
fixing dates of interest.
The name for the 18th month was con
sidered and where 1t should come during
the year. With % days to each month
1t is found there remains one additional
day, and 1t is proposed to make Christ
mas a two-day holiday. The additional
day brought about by leap yehr would
be added to the month OF June.
Mr.. Messelt revealed thai so OF the
largest business concerns in the east hac
adopted the plan and found it satisfac-
tory. Another plan Of dividing the veal
into equalized quarters is also proposed
and is being used by some concerns.

The per capita consumption of milk
in Great Falls Is sixth of 10 cities In
the state, according to Howard X. Estes,
staff associate of the American Child
Health association of New York.
Each resident of Great Falls consumes
a little more than a glass of milk a day.
Sc of a pint, according to Mr.. Estes.
Missoula stands highest in the state
with a consumption of IA pints per per-
son per day. Laurel is the lowest with 81
of a pint consumption. Consumption in
other cities were: Billings, 80; Helena,
.73; Anaconda, SO; Havre, 81; Lewistown,
SO; Deer Lodge, SO. and Butte, 81 Of a
pint.
These figures were gathered in a milk
survey made last summer by representa-
tives of the Child Health association.
In that survey, milk was obtained from
every dealer In each OF the cities studied
and analysed in a travelling laboratory
with a view to determining the quality
of milk which the cities were using.
Finds Falls Min. food
From a laboratory standpoint the milk
obtained from II dealers in Great Falls
appeared good,'' Mr.. Estes said. approx
mately 96 per cent of 1t had less than
200, 900 bacteria per cubic centimeter and
the butterfat average was SO, which is
above the state requirement Of 3.25.
The work of the health department
here has resulted in a good quality Of
milk being sold. With only IT dealers
here the situation is very favorable for
close control"
The association with which Mr.. Estes
is connected Is philanthropic and with
out commercial ties. Herbert Hoover Is
its president and 1t is sponsored by a
number Of educational foundations.
Mr.. Estes discussed better milk pro-
duction with the dairymen Of the city
at a meeting in the office Of the board
of health.
Nutrition authorities recommend q
minimum consumption Of one pint OF
milk per person per day for good health"
he said. THE survey shows that Great
Falls is below the average with each per-
son getting only q little more thai one
glass a day"
Pasteurization, which has been a moot
point in the city, is recommended from
a public health point OF view by the
Child Health association, according to
the representative.
Our organization is in no way con-
nected with the sale of pasteurization
equipment, as is sometimes alleged" Mr.
Estes said. I'VE merely recommend
pasteurization for health. About % pei
cent Of your milk in Great Falls is pas
teurized. We advise the citizens to In
vestigate the process Of pasteurization
and the effects. Many cities in the east
are barring al milk that has not beer
pasteurized."
He explained that the process involves
heating the milk to 142 degrees Fahren.
heit. holding 1t at that temperature fol-
80 minutes and then cooling the milk.
Mr.. Estes praised the dairy inspection
here and observed that the milk produc'
ton was we'll handled.

property claimed by M. j. Pereira and

The court also refused to entertain an

The Joke of the Highway Law

For some reason, probably largely political, the
headlight laws OF Texas have been permitted to be-
come the "joke" of the highways. With good intent
and solemn mien the 1925 legislature announced that
abe menace Of glare lights would be eliminated from
the highways Of the state, and then proceeded to pass
a law that would doubtless perform the function for
which il is intended-if il were enforced.
The highway department has a few special agents
Who cover large territories and are expected to assist
local officers in enforcing the law, much the same as
prohibition enforcement officers are expected to all
other federal officers-and with mach the same re-
suits. The special officers cannot be criticized; they
have a wide territory to cover, and generally receiv.
kttle aid from any source. Their arrival Is herslded
BY a few arrests, a sudden "run" on the light adjusting
stations, but as soon as they pass on to new territory
the law is forgotten, except in a few sections where
the local officers are jealous in the performance Of
their duty, and receive the condemnation Of motorists
fer performing II.
The average motorist is generally highly incensed
when the glare from the unadjusted headlights Of an
approaching car force him to seek the ditch to avoid a
collision, but overlooks the fact that his own head
lights are probably as irritating to other drivers. III
is conscious only Of the Inconvenience he experiences;
not Of that he causes. As a rule the motorist rails 81
those who have glare headlights and then blithelv
goes his way without regard to how seriously his own
lights may glare others. If he Is hailed before the
court he almost invariably is assessed a small fine and
treats the matter as q joke.
Texas expends thousands Of dollars in preventing
spread Of infectious diseases among humans and ami
mails; in preventing or controlling plant diseases and
pests, and in teaching the people Of the state how 70
take care Of their health; but has only a few dollars
TO spend in eradicating the deadly glarelight which is
8 menace on every highway in the state. Other states
have succeeded in controlling this menace to life and
property, and there is no logical reason why Texas
cannot do the same.
