The sixth grade gave us an inter-

birds during noon opening exer-

us about the gorgeous flicker, the
screech owl, and the song sparrow.
The windows and school curtains
were given a pleasant surprise last
week. Mile Bentfeld washed our
curtains for us. Before we put
them UP again, we washed the win
ter's SCOT from the inside of the
windows. Lorraine accidentally
upset the ink in our back cup
board one noon. When we began
wiping that up, we discovered that
the entire woodwork of the cup
board needed the bath which it
then got. The water cooler has re-
turned to it's place in the cloak
hall so we think spring must real

The sixth grade is working on
good English posters for language.
Friday P. M. we took up 'Get-

We found that we needed this
work when we began our correct
speech posters. The lower grades
made Easter posters.
The eighth grade are now
studying o Captain, My Captain in

Well we at least learned some of
our weak points.
Lorraine Eldred voiced the feel

she said, 'I'm SO glad that the
sun is shining now so things will
dry up" It was surely a gloomy
week.
We will be glad to have Alvina
back with US next week. We also
hope that Starry's will get over
being afraid of the mud and get
to school more regularly.

bulletin issued by the committee on
public health education of the Min
nesota State Medical Association
today. Three causes are named:
1. Acute and chronic infectious
diseases, particularly rheumatic fe-
yer.
2. Hardening of the arteries.
3. High blood pressure.
bad personal hygiene and i'm
proper methods of living, are
among the contributing factors to
heart disease" declares the re-
port. 'The chief cause of heart di-
sease in early life is acute rheu-
matism. Although we do not know
definitely the causes of rheumatism,
enough evidence is at hand to make
us quite certain that we are deal
ing with a germ disease. It seems
likely that the germ of rheumatic
infection may gain entrance into
the system through diseased ton
sils, adenoids or decayed teeth.
HFor the past few years, or
ganic heart disease has caused
more deaths than tuberculosis. The
death rate from organic heart di-
sease has been increasing gradual
ly through long series of years.
Its rise to first place in the mortal
ity statistics has been accompan-
led by fall in the death rate from
tuberculosis, diptheria and other in
fectious diseases.
IF present conditions continue,
one in every five of population liv-
ing at age 10 will die of heart di-
sease. Children of 10 are twice as
likely to die of heart disease as of
tuberculosis.
'After the age of 80 the death
rate from tuberculosis gradually
falls while that from heart disease
continues to rise. Between 25 and
"a years organic heart disease
causes more deaths than all forms
of pneumonia.
"After 80 years, heart disease
causes more deaths than any other
cause except tuberculosis. At 45,
heart disease becomes the principal
cause of death.
SAT 35, probability of dying
from heart disease is for males
three times and for females five
times that for tuberculosis.
adults leading sedentary lives,
whose activities are chiefly mental,
who get but little outdoor exer-
else, who eat too much and sleep
too little, frequently suffer from
circulatory changes. The exact eff
feet of this mode of life on the
heart, as we'll as the habitual use
of alcohol, tobacco, tea and cof-
fee in intemperate amounts can
not be precisely stated. But mas
much as there is reason to suspect
that these factors may influence the
development Or progress of hard
ening of the arteries and high
blood pressure, it is certainly the
part of wisdom to regulate ones
life in accordance with the funda-
mental principles of health and to
limit indulgence in alcohol, tobac-
co, tea and coffee to innocuous
amounts.
'The progress of an established
heart lesion can often become sta
tionary. Taken at an early stage,
in its development, a proper limi-
tation of the patients activities, a
suitable mode of life and, if nee
essary, well selected medication,
controlled by the close observation
and frequent examinations of an
intelligent physician, will in the
majority of instances keep the
heart efficient and equal to the de-
mands of a life of reasonable ac-
tiyitv."

WORLD FAMOUS STORIES
HOP-FROG
BY EDGAR ALLEN POE

The eight orang- outangs, taking Hop
Frogs advice. waited patiently until
midnight before making their appear
ance. No sooner had the clock ceased
striking than they rushed, or rather
rolled in, all together-for the impede
ment of their chains caused most of the
party to fall, and all to stumble.
The excitement among the masque-
raiders was prodigious and filled the
heart of the king with glee. AS had
been anticipated. there were not few
Of the guests who supposed the Zero.
Cious-looking creatures to be beasts of
some kind in reality. Many of he
women swooned from fright. Had not
the king taken the precaution to ex-
| clude all weapons from the room his
party might soon have paid for their
frolic with their blood AS 1t was, a
general rush was made for the doors.
but the king had had them locked as
he entered. and he held the keys.
While the tumult was at its height the
chain by which the chandelier ordi-
narily hung might have been seen grad
ually to descend to within three feet
of the floor. When the king and his
seven friends, having reeled about the
hall in all directions. finally came to
the center, they unWarily came i'll con-
tact with the hook of the chain. The
dwarf, who had been following at their
heels. now deity hooked the chain into
the chain that bound the eight beasts.
Immediately some force from outside
pulled up the chain until the feet of
the eight were free Of the floor and they
hung ludicrously together.
Every one now laughed at the pre-
dicament of the monsters who had
frightened them. Hop-Frog seized a
torch, leaped upon the head of the
King, climbed up the chain and leaned
down, holding the torch over the faces
of the eight disguised royal personages.
I'm find out who they are!" shrieked
Hop-Frog.
Suddenly the jester whistled. The
chain was hauled up rapidly until the
group hung not far below the roof. II
see who they are now" cried the dwarf
in growing voice full of hatred. Sud-
denly, pretending to look at the Kings
face more closely. his torch ignited the
flaxen coat. which burst instantly into
sheet Of vivid flame. In less than half
a minute the whole eight Orang -outangs
were blazing f1ercely, amid the shrieks of
the multitude, who gazed from below
horror stricken and without power to
render them the slightest assistance.
Flames forced the jester to climb
higher. and he finally disappeared
through the opening in the roof He
had accomplished his last jest-his VEN
geance. He and Trippetta disappeared
that night and were never seen again.

Need of Proper Care for Corsets
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

, advise their customers to do this always
at night. letting the corsets remain SC
rolled until needed again.
Corsets should be hung out OF doors
in the sunshine occasionally to give
them the cleansing Of air and sunshine.
This will keep them free from odor.
Washing corsets is something that
any woman can do without any diff
Guilty. Corselets and corsets without
bones can be laundered like any waist
Corsets with bones should be scrubbed
with a nail brush, or one of like kind.
Lay the corsets fiat on the scrubbing
board and rub with the brush, wet with
a solution of warm soap suds and just
a few drops Of household ammonia.
Move the corsets up and down in the
tub water frequently, for this removes
the loosened dirt. When clean, the cor
sets should be well rinsed and dried out
of doors
It should be remembered that rubber
will soften and partially dissolve even
under heat as intense as boiling water.
Therefore never use anything more than
warm water for such corsets as have
rubber in them. Lukewarm water is not
harmful.
Because of the effect of heat on rub
Der do not iron the rubber cloth of cor
sets. All other portions should be care
fully ironed. Lay a piece of white cot
ton cloth over the corsets and iron them
while still damp Then hang in warm
place until the rubber portions are
t,hoyol,ghly dry.
at is a good idea to have corset bags

dust. Also 1t is wise to have more than
one pair of corsets. so that one can al
WAYS be ready to be used when the other
pair is being cleaned or whenever per-

Care of the Chin.

A favorite old statement was to the
effect that "a woman is as old as she
looks" Very young girls may appear
10 years older than they are in years,
over periods when they take on too
much weight and fill out under their
ciiins. Young women who get run
down so that their tissues become fiabby
enough to cause sagging of the facial
muscles will look many years Older as
the outline of the chin is altered
through this sagging. The improvement
comes quickly in such cases. rs 1t Is
only q matter of getting rid Of the
extra weight in one case. or building
up in the other. Older women do not
recover their youthful chin line so
easily after they have allowed accumu-
lations of fat or their skins have sag
ged from different causes.
The better way is to ward off this
disagreement and keep the muscles firm
and the skin taut. This is done
through exercise. or massage. which is
localized exercise. and care of the skin.
This same advice is equally applicable
to men. for when I come to think of it,
more men have double chins than

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR, JESSE w. SPROWLS.
The Poetical.

When Freud came along with his ia
nous theory of sublimation, poetry took
on a new meaning. Poetry is not now
regarded as mark of genius neces-
sarily, but as a signal of distress-a
signal that the poet is trying to subli-
mate his distress. At least, that is the
way Freud and his followers interpret It,.
When you sublimate anything, you
change it from what it is into some
thing else-something better. You
transform base metals into gold, prim-
tive impulses into civilized propensities.
grief into joy, worries into ambitions and
hopes. When you wrote poem you are
taking a step in the direction OF getting
over your mental agitations. It's a re-
lief from psychic repressions.
Sophocles wrote his story Of "Oedipus"
in order to cut himself away from his
mothers apron strings. Poe harped on
death because he lived in continual fear
of it. Bryant wrote his famous "Thana-
topsis" to Danish the same fear. Walt
Whitman was bothered about the van
ity of his friends. So he dreamed OF
and wrote of pure democracy. And so
it goes for host of poets.
According to the Freudians. poetry Is
a spiritual emancipation. Its center
of gravity turns on the point Of mental
health. Poetry may prevent all sorts
of mental diseases, that is, if you can
write it. Reading it, of course, helps
a little by way of suggestion.
If this Freudian theory is correct.
we have another proof that beauty is
born OF ugliness. At the same time We
can understand that insanity and poetic
genius are not friends but enemies. The
genius saves himself through his poetry.
He turns away from madness. Instead
of going to the asylum he goes to the
halls of fame.
