it's advantages, but in winter
months the average Minnesota girl
is insufficiently dressed to play out
Of doors.
"What are the factors leading
to the high death rate of our grow
ing girls?" asks the bulletin of
the Minnesota State Medical Asso-
citation. "The answer to this ques-
ton is neither simple nor is it GER
tain we have a complete and cor
rect answer.
Probably the most important
cause leading to this situation is a
; lack of sufficient rest. These are
the years of high school and early
college work of our growing girls.
These are also the years in which
large number of our girls enter
industry, taking some position that
usually brings insufficient income
to clothe and feed themselves and
supply spending money. Some
times the young wage Garner
must contribute to the support of
the family. Quite frequently she
holds two positions, doing her
/ housework in the early morning
and in the evening hours. The av-
erage girl between the ages of IL
and 20 uses up her nervous and
physical energy too rapidly. She
gets insufficient sleep to permit
the body to be restored to normal.
Gradually her vital energy is
sapped and tuberculosis, which is a
disease of those whose resistance
has been lowered may develop.
"The second important factor in
the development of tuberculosis is
nutrition. The average growing
girl eats an insufficient amount of
the right food to give proper nour-
ishment to the body. If we are
going to correct the nutrition of
our growing boys and girls we
must teach them to drink milk, eat
more fresh eggs, more leafy veg
etables, more cereals, more dark
bread, more fruit and in most cas-,
es, less meat and less sweets.
''The third cause may be found
in the present styles of girls
clothing. During the summer
months the present mode of dress
of our girls has a distinct advant
age because. the body gets more
sunshine and is more constantly
bathed in fresh air, but in the
winter months the average girl III

were part of the annual report
presented by Mr.. Markham at the
annual convention in Chicago last
week. The figures contradict the
impression some people have that
Minnesota is far advanced in
trunk highway Improvement and
is neglecting it's secondary roads.
Minnesota ranks third in the to-
tai mileage of improved roads,
state and local, only Texas and
Pennsylvania having a higher to-
tai. While Mr.. Markham included
in this figure all roads which are
graded and drained in any degree,
he used the same standard for all
states.
Minnesota ranks fourth in
miles of surface roads, state and
local, with a total of 28,015. In
diana and Ohio continue to hold
first and second place and North
Carolina has recently gone ahead
of Minnesota, while New York and
Wisconsin, formerly ahead of Min
nesota, have fallen behind.
In another table showing paving

twenty-fourth in "per cent OF
