A Service Faithfully Given

Ten and half years of faithful, unsefish service
by the Sisters of the Good Shepherd to orphan chill
dren of the city came to end this week, with the
transfer of 103 children from their home here to the
home lately provided for them in Vincennes.
1t has been a service which remained unsung one
of which the average citizen of indianapolis knew
nothing carried quietly tenderly willingly by these
faithful guardians
In this day. when too many deeds of merit are &C
companied by baring of trumpets it refreshing to
know that many are willing to serve quietly with
their only reward the consciousness of having done
their duty by helpless ones who never may be able to
repay them in material way, giving only their heart
felt gratitude.

Next the material in the nucleus known as the
chromatin network breaks up into series OF little
rods threads known the chromosomes.
The chromosomes arrange themselves around the
equator middle of the spindle between the two
central bodies.
Next each chromosome splits lengthwise into two
and the halves move in opposite direction.
As result each central body is surrounded by
group of chromosomes containing in each case half Of
each original chromosome.
Each central body and its chromosomes now change
into the appearance of cell nucleus the chrome

between the two nuclei, splitting the cell into two

It will be SEEM therefore, that in the process of
mitosis the chromosome material is split in two so
that each daughter cell receives full range of chron-
osome material from the parent cell.
This is extremely important. Recent experiments
have tended to show that the chromosomes deter
mine the characteristics of the CELL They the
carriers of heredity.
Each chromosome is made up Of a number OF
smaller structures called genes The genes have been

oxide, methyl chloride ana am
monia.
During the past year, tWenty-nine
persons we're poisoned by gases
from household refrigerators in Chi
cago and of this number ten died.
All these cases resulted from Sys-
TENS using methyl chloride, which is
quite difficult to detect because it
has practically no ocor, and from
multiple unit system.
These 81 7tems are used mainly in
apartment houses and the refrigera-
ton unit is generally in the base
ment with the gas piped through
out the building.
Higher pressure on the gas is nee
essary than when the unit is part
of the refrigerator and consequently
leaks are more apt to occur.
So far, no cases of poisoning have
been reported from refrigerators
using sulphur dioXide, because this
gas Immediately initiates the eyes
and throat and a person can leave
the room in which it is escaping.
Breathing is one of the functions
of mankind that goes on constantly.
The volume of air that is breathed
changes with every activity, sleep
ing, walking, working or running.
Since gases are mixed with air
and breathed into the body, it is
important to know how much air is
taken in and how much gas accom-
panies it over a certain period of
time.
The air goes into the lungs, which

are elastic and which are blown up
like bellows with the construction
of a sponge. All the little cavities
opening though small communicate
ing tubes are finally connected up
with the wind pipe.
Through the little cavities circu-
late blood vessels and the oxygen
brought in with the air is taken up
by the blood and sent back to the
heart where it is circulated to the
tissues of the body.
The average man breathes about
six quarts of air a minute while
resting in bed, eight quarts while
standing, fourteen quarts while
walking at two miles an hour, for
ty-three quarts while running slowly,
and as much as sixty-f1ve quarts
under conditions of maximum exer-
ton.
Children expend more energy per
unit of body surface than adults.
For this reason, the breathing by
volume and the amount Of air eX-
changed in the body are greater in
children than in adults and the rate
at which they take up any gas is
more rapid.
1t is for the same reason that mice
and canary birds are used in mines
to indicate the presence of bad air.
The breathing of the mouse or bird
in relationship to its size is such
that it will be poison far quicker
than the man who may be carry
ing it.

Prohibition and the States

Governor Richie of Maryland offered persuasive
arguments support of his contention that the states
are not obligated to enforce prohibition in an address
before the Institute of Public Affairs at the Univer
sity of Virginia.
The question has been much disputed New York,
Wisconsin Nevada and Montana, which repealed their
enforcement acts and Maryland, which steadfastly
has refused to enact one, have been subjected to
much criticism and accused of defying the Constitu
ton.
Our position simply is that when the Constitution
declares that the states shall have concurrent power
with the nation to enforce the eighteenth amendment,
this does not mean that the states legally morally
are obliged to exercise this power said Ritchie.
"They have the clear right to exercise it not at
their sound discretion"
The Governor makes it clear that the duty of the
people to obey the eighteenth amendment is not in
volved nor the right of the federal government to
send its agents into the states.
He points out that no state is called upon to pro-
vide enforcement machinery for the income tax laws
the narcotic law the anti-drug act or other federal
laws and asks why then should any state be obligated
to set up state machinery enforce just out of
all the thousands of other laws?"
Richie quotes from the speech of Representative
Webb of the house judiciary committee, at the time
the prohibition amendment was under consideration,
to show that the concurrent clause not intended
to place obligation on the states
Rather as Webb explained it, there was some
question as to whether the amendment would prevent
state enforcement unless such a clause incor-
porated. He cited a supreme court decision to show
that the court was of the opinion and declared
there is no federal legislation imposing the duty to
enforce
Under the American system of government, the
states owe duty to the nation to enforce the laws
of the nation and the nation owes duty to the
states to enforce the laws of the states, Ritchie
argued.
Ritches exposition will not settle the enforcement
question but it merits the unprecedented study of all
factions for which he pleads.

no fraud has been committed and
that no investor" has thus far

per cent is enough to cause sus-

On Wall Street, however, it seems
to be regarded as sound, if not con-
sentative, otherwise how could peo-
pie afford to pay the prevailing rates
for call money.
Many Of the recent stock specula-
tons would be proftless with less
than 26 per cent on the original
value in sight. Maybe Huckins
merely has discovered the secret of
watering capital.

people like to be humbuggegd, but

DAVID CROCKETT
Aug. IL


TODAY is the 1880 anniversary
Il of the birth of David Crockett,
famous pioneer, soldier and poll
tician.
Born in Greene county, Tenn, on
Aug. II, 1876, Crockett became a
typical backwoodsman, unlettered
but shrewd, and skillful as a hunter.
He served under Jackson in the
war against the Creek Indians. In
1921 and 1923, he was elected to
the Tennessee legislature, and in 1925
1928 and 1882 was elected to Con-
gress, where his oddities of dress at
tracted considerable attention.
At the end of his third term in
Congress, Crockett enlisted with the
Texas forces, then in arms against
Mexico, and in 1886 was one of the
six survivors of the 140 defenders Of
The Alamo, where on March 6 the
entire garrison was killed by Santa
Annals troops. Crockett was mas
sacred by order Of Santa Anna.
Crockett's well-known maxim
was, BE sure you're right, then go
ahead"
