Code of Ethics
 Being Drafted
Teachers and Officers are
 Combining Efforts

Minneapolis. July R-For a school official to fail to recommend one of his teachers for a position Tn another community because he does not want to lose her services, is held by teachers to be the most objectionable practice in their pro- fession.
 Sarah T. Muir. head of the English department, Lincoln High school. Lincoln, Neb., told the board of directors of the National Education association meeting here that in a questionnaire sent to all types of teachers in all localities a vote of s6.40 per cent placed that item at the head of conduct in furious to the teaching profession. Both teachers and executives joined in declaring against it. exploding. she said. the notion that officers wish to be guided in their actions by a different code of ethics from that which governs the conduct of the classroom teacher.
 At the same time 94.59 per cent of the answers declared that to vio- late official correspondence or con- versation among teachers was the second and most important item in the list of unethical practices.

Mental Health
 Training Urged
Educator Says It's Neces-
 sary for Health.

Portland. Ore. July $. R - Training in mental health is as inn portant as training in physical health or disease prevention. said Miss Gertrude Laws of the Califor- nia department of education, who addressed the National Tuberculo- Sis association recently.
 "One of the outstanding needs at present." she said, lis to make symptoms Of mental health as clear to parents and teachers as the symptoms of physical health now ahould be. Mental health IS no longer concerned chiefly with fee- ble-mindedness nor with defective or disordered mental conditions It's chief concern is with making con- ditions for growth for normal hu- mans such that habits that lead to self-direction and self-control to- ward social ends will be estab- hshed.'
 Certain mental reactions are as subversive to health as any phys ical disorder. Miss Laws asserted. Among these she mentioned cow ardice and shyness, hate and dis gust, distrust, Encouragement, jeal- ousy, class consciousness and self pity. On the other hand, she added, such reactions as sympathy. eener- osity. admiration and hopefulness are as necessary to health as fresh air. sunshine, good food and exer- else,

school teachers of the town and no "'dating" between teachers and seu- dents.
 Then things went along serenely and he was recuperatinE manfully from the effects of the Necomer- ston verdict, when . second catas- trophe occurred.
 The board of trustees of the Cin- cinnati public library has ruled that the women members of the library staff who have served less than three years shall automatically tender their resignation by tying the eternal knot.
 The ruling was made. according to Chalmers Hadley, head librarian. to prevent young women in the library training school from filling in" between graduation and mar riage.
 I've feel that young women who neglect their work for showers and teas when they are engaged, will neglect 1t after they are married" said Hadley. "Our schools object is to train women for careers, not just to offer them jobs"
 There is one consolation. The girls may wed with the consent of the head librarian and hold their position. Cupid is little encouraged by the news however. He has found through experience that head He brarians, school principals and members of various boards of trus- tees are notably cold hearted peo' pie in. that respect.

Health Hints
DY DIR. MORRIS FISHIsElN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hy-
 peja. the Health MayaZilie

From the most ancient times men have believed in the special virtues of waters coming from the depths Of the earth, particularly when these waters had strong odor or an un- usual taste.
 More recently many scientific ob- servers have been inclined 10 the view that much of the benefit to be had from residence at mineral springs is due 10 the change of cli- mate, of environment. and to the fact that the individual drinks much more water when at such q resort than during his ordinary life.
 On the other hand, unauestion- ably these waters do possess un- usual salts and metallic substances as well as certain amount of ra- dio-actipity. and there is coming 10 be more and more attention paid to the effects Of small quantities of such substances on the human body.
 Water containing considerable amounts or FdJlHiil 'lfldlldljbH IS believed to have some influence on the amount of calcium and phos- phorus that are eScreted by the human body.
 Waters of the Saratoga Springs in New York have been shown to have a high catalytic power, due to the iron that they contain. In- Vestigators point out the fact that these waters are rich in salts and that they therefore have both phys ical and chemical reactions on the human body. modifying greatly the manner in which the chemical changes in the body go OH.
 II is well known that the drink ing of considerable amounts Of water will stimulate the action of the kidneys, hut c .sosns eases of

Train Character
 of Youngsters
Radical Change in School
 Courses Advocated.

Minneapolis, July 5 P.-A radical change in school curricula is need ed, in the opinion of Agnes Boysen. principal of the Lyndale School of Minneapolis, to give children the character education necessary to establish a we'll ordered, successful life.
 Educators are not satisfied with the work of many of our gradu- ates." she told the National Educa- ton Association today. some of these boys and girls go out ilsto the world and do not succeed; in fact. some are absolute failures.
 Emphasis must be placed on honesty rather than accuracy, the knowledge of how to serve rather than the acquiring of mere infor- nation and the desire to serte rath- CT than a certain number of 100 per cent averages.
 Superintendent, principals, teachers and pupils must unite in this common interest and sacrifice, if necessary, the old traditional standards of gaining much useless information. Academic subject matter may be the means to the end. but never the end in itself"
 An effort to understand children as the basis for school work was outlined to the department of kin dergarten primary education by Li- via D. Youngquist, teacher of pri- mary education at Winnetka, Ills.
 Comprehension of child instincts, interests. attitudes and abilities is the basis for understanding chill dren. she explained. together with recognition that "a large freedom is strong environmental factor in behavior; that favorable attitude should accompany the learners procedures; that shorter drill pe- riods are essential"
 The student council was describ- ed today by R. R. Cromwell. prin- cipal of the Central High school of Peoria. H.. as "a necessary agent Of administration in a large. mod . ern high school"
 "Self-preservation of our democ- racy," he explained to the National Conference on Student Participa- tion in School Government, de mands that the high school stress ! citizenship above all other objec- tives, and prominent leaders and leading educators recommend that , We try to develop civic reseonsi. bilty.
 "A high school should therefore be laboratory for teaching cit- zenship, even if 1t interferes with scholarship, although I have never found that teaching responsibility for citizenship through student co. operative self-government and de. veloping scholarship were neces- sarily incompatible"

kidney deficiency the taking of large amounts of water may bring serious damage to the body. In such instances the water tends to deposit within the tissues and to produce sweliings and the condi- ton called dropsy.
 In the human body sulphur is one of the chemicals of greate&t importance. Many of the mineral waters are particularly rich in sul- phur and many studies tend to ascribe the beneficial effects of sui- rhur waters in digestive and rheu- matic disorders to the fact that they stimulate the chemical changes in the body. Apparently sulphur water reduces uric acid.
