books and draws pictures for
living, and because he likes to.
The pictures I have been looking
at are in his new book, "VoyGg-

wanted to see South America, so
he shipped as a common sailor
and went down in a small sail
boat along the coasts of TERRA

splitting on his hands and OBJ
serving from his eyes. After
wards he put the story of it into
book.
When you look at those pic
lures YOU feel as il you could have
drawn them. That is, if you
knew how to hold a pen. They
make things look as things look.
ana they MAKE yOu WANT W RooA

pictures as he saw pictures. And
they fill you full of strong. simple,

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
-By DIR. C. A. L. Reed

YOU are protected in matters
i of health by three distinct So
cial forces, all of which are based
in the first instance upon educa-
ton. These three forces are, the
statutes, the conventions and what
has come to be called the ethic OF
the problem. The statutes are
definite and printed rules enacted
by State or municipality requiring
obedience under pains of penalties.
The conventions are indefinite
and imprinted rules based upon
common understanding and gen.
eraI observance, but imposing no
other penalty than that OF social
disfavor. The ethic of health
propIems, however, goes much
deeper and more fundamental.
Ethics Of health imply the moral
ity involved in the relation of man
to man in the matter of health.
In a given instance an ethic OF
health is the definition, implied or
IL,
Volved in the case.
1t is upon ethics. therefore, that
both statutes and conventions
must be based il they are to en-
dure. This is especially true with
respect to the infections that, III
my boyhood days, we called
catching diseases"
You have no right to give a
Catching disease" to your neigh-
Dor.
The duty rests upon you to pro-
tect your neighbor from unex'
pected exposure to catching
disease Of which you know you
are the victim.
The rule-the ethic-that APP
plies to you applies equally TO
your neighbor.
The same ethic imposes upon
both of YOU, each acting in the IN
terest of the other, the obligation
to detect contagious or 1nfectlous
diseases in either at the earnest
practicaI moment.
The same ethic imposes upon
hoth OF you. each acting for tho
other. the obligation to make your
selves immune to such diseases as
have so far been thus brought
under control.
Take. for instance. the loath'
some disease of smallpox. the
active immunity against smallpox
produced by vaccination ranks
among the very best results OBJ
tanned by preventive medicine. IL
il also the oldest known method
Of immunisation' Recent efficient
vaccination Is as absolutely Ger
tain a method OF prevention AS
ANYTHING in the whole art of medi-
cine. Until vaccination Is com:
nulsory, however isolation and
quarantine will always be neccs'
sary.
If carried out with intelligence
and vigor they are very satlsfac'
torv methods, and the chief u!ffi.
Guilty of applying them Is that
nowadays so many cases OF small
pox are So mild that they arc not
notified.
There is very little natural i'm.
munity. and few unprotected peo-
pie escape if exposed to Infection.
1t is not yet known what organ
ism causes the disease. The lnfec-
ton is comparatively easily KILLED
by exposure to light and air, but
objects which are shut away in
the dark, such as the pages Of .
book, may retain 1t for a long
time.

the sunshine and the storm. And
when he draws a boat you feel
that. it is a boat.
He puts a boat on the paper
and he puts it into your life.
You feel that he likes boats and
doesn't mind getting sweaty and
dirty for the joy of seeing the sea.
And suddenly you also want to he
on a boat seeing the sea-and
YOU realize that here Is something
great and moving.
In short, you feel that these
words and pictures are not just
part of a book-they are part OF
life-they are part of your life.
They are a part of your life you
have wanted to find. And now
you have found them!
That is great art. That is the
only thing that has a right to be
called great art. Words or pic
lures or music that add some
thing to your 1ife-that put some
thing back into your life which
you have lost or overlooked-they
are real art.

When your heart can no longer
beat high with hope, with love,
with excitement, with enthusiasm,
or just with the joy of living, you
might as well pick out your tomb
stone. plant the ivy and the lilies
and settle down to gray Old age.
For you are beginning to die at
the top"
A man is not old when his hair
turns gray and he gets wrinkles
in his cheeks, but when his hopes
and enthusiasms turn gray and ne
gets wrinkles on the heart.
In these days when 1t Is con-
sidered smart to be hardboiled and
skeptical and cynical hearts are
very much out of date. They are
supposed TO be @ound only in
moroRs and novels and on paper
valentines. .a..
We talk lot about "self-expres-
SION" but any expression OF senti-
ment or emotion or spontaneous
enthusiasm Is regarded as naive
and unsophisticated. We are de-
liberately choking back the foun"
tain" Of youth in the unholy fear Of
making fools of ourselves.
