A NEW ICE AGE?

In case you haven't anything else to worry about, you
can give a thought to some recent remarks by Donald
MacMillan arctic explorer, who suggests that the north
crn hemisphere may be right on the edge. of a new ice
age.
The ice ages OF the past have sent solid sheets of ice
down from the polar regions to blanket the land nearly
as far south as the Ohio river. A repetition of this, OBJ
viously. would upset our national life considerably.
says that Eskimos in the northland have
told him that huge glaciers now cover valleys where, a
few years ago, there were trees and flowers. Measure
ments, he says, have shown that some glaciers are NOV
ing south at q speed Of so feet a year-express train speed
for a glacier.
But-well. If you haven't anything else to worry about,
you ought to Be able to get something out Of this.

THE FUTURE OF THE DIRIGlBLE

When you talk about the future of aviation. you gen.
orally talk about airplancs. 70 most of us the dtrgible,
while fascinating to watch. does not figure greatly. It
se--,s too clumsy. too fragile.
BIT Commander G. E. Roserdehl of the U. S. navy, who
runs the Lakehurst air station, believes that the dir
igibles future Is quite as bright as that Of the plane.
The commander recently told graduates of Haverford
College that in . few years huge ~dirigibles. six times the
size Of the present Los Angeles. will be making regular
commtrcia trips over the Atlantic. They will carry hum
dreds OF passengers In perfect safety, and huge quantities
Of freight, and will carry their own ~airplanes which they
can laurch and pick up in r::d-a.r.
Most Of us. probably, viii hope that he is right. The
dirigible has a spell all Its own. The thought Of q mighty
fly,-y liner catches the Imagination; it gives a thrill that
the quick soaring airplane cannot give.

HEAT EXHAUSTION AND SUN
! STROKE

During the hot weather many peo-
pie die Of heat exhaustion and sun.
stroke because they have not taken
the proper precautions to make the
changes In their diets and clothing,
made necessary by the rise in tenn
perature. .
Heat prostration occurs when the
body is unable to'quickly adapt itself
to q sudden increase in temperature.
This occurs most frequently when the
air is very humid or the clothing
heavy enough to prevent a rapid
evaporation Of perspiration. BY max
Ing sensible changes in our diet and
clothing, we can avoid all Of the I'M
pleaSantness Of hot weather.
The danger of heat p~rostration is
that 1t may occur rel when one is
not In the sun, especially when COM
ing from q cool room into a warm
atmosphere. The heat stroke, which
Is different from sunstroke, comes on
slowly and leaves the surface Of the
body cool and the temperature some-
times subnormal. The individuals af-
fected always have q sluggish cir
culation.
The best method of treating heat
stroke or heat prostration is to place
the individual upon a fruit fast for q
few days, with frequent tepid or warm
shower baths. quite hot enemas. deep
breathing exercises and dry friction
rubs. The hot enemas sometimes
bring about the quickest relief.
The sunstroke differs from heat
exhaustion in that 1t is caused by a
congestion of the blood to the head
because Of intense sun rays. Immedi-
ate Inconsistencies is often produced
by not wearing q hat while for a long
time in the direct rays Of the hot
summer sum-. Children, light ON
plexioned people. and those under the
influence Of alcohol r especially sus-
ceptible. Death may occur almost i'm
mediately. and even where this does
not occur, there r sometimes after
effects, such as partial paralysis of
the brain or legs, fever, and complete
prostration.
Once q person has been affected by
sunstroke he is especially susceptible
to heat or the direct rays of the SUI
for q long time thereafter.
Because Of the profound shock &C.
curing in this disorder, one must
use extreme al In the treatment. Ice
packs to the neck will cool the blood
and reduce the pressure in the brain.
I do not recommend the ice cold enc
ma usually given to lower the tenn
perature, since I am of the opinion
that it is more important to secure q
thorough cleansing, and warm or
slightly cool water is more valuable
for this purpose. The cooling should
be accompanied by sponging the skin
with ice water and using cold shower
baths.
One who is recovering from SUM-
stroke must conserve his vitality by as
much sleep and rest as possible.

NOT A DOGS LIFE
NV Alice .IudA0n PealeN

The highest virtue to which q puppy
may attain is to grow up to be an
obediert dog.
II he but learns to obey his mas
ter's voice his life will be as gay and
carefree o. q dogs life car be. He
never will lack a dinner and q warm
place to lie. He need only come when
he Is called to be assured always Of a
cheerful existence in which no needs
are unfulfilled.
But to human children obedience
brings no such rewards. They grow
up to be men and women who live in
q world In which obedience will get
them little that is worth having. The
good things of life are allotted not
to those who do as others tell them.
but to those who think and act for
themselves. The obedient soul eats
scanty fare and sleeps on a hard bed.
Men and women must make de-
cisions and stand by them. They must
know what they want and cling to 1t
despite criticism and opposition. The
ultimate goal for which we are train
ing our children is not a dogs life
but one Of self direction and self re-
lance.
The value of obedience in the life of
q child should not be v e estimated.
It Is not an end in itself-only q
means to an end. The child needs
to obey, but only in those matters in
which his own judgment is not yet
sufficiently developed to permit In
dependent action.
AS he grows older there should be
fewer and fewer occasions when
mother knows BEST" until at last
the element of obedience has entirely
disappeared from the relation Of par
ent and child. and there remain only
friendship and mutual respect.

A WORD O u

You don't hear SO much nowadays about flaming
youth" and Its sins as you did a short time ago. In case
you are still . bit worried about the erring younger gen.
Grafton, however, you might listen to these remarks from
the Rev. Charles r. Brown, D. D., dean emeritus Of the
Yale divinity school,. who has seen the new generation
1t close range for q number Of years.
II have no sympathy whatever with this wholesale de-
crying Of the tendencies Of youth says Dean Brown.
THE young people are not everything that is great and
grand ana good. neither are they the last word in total
depravity. They are mixed like the rest of us. The
wheat and tares grow together In that soil which is warm
ana rich and fertile beyond measure. according to the
reed sown."
That seems to us m excellent size-up of the situation.
It Is : good antidote for the dolorous walls Of some OF
the discouraged sraybeards.

MISSISSIPPI BUBBLE"

NA100A001A = A1oADA1A|AI
On June ~. 1720, the gigantic bank
ing and commercial scheme, the
Mississippi Bubble" burst.
The scheme was projected In
France by the celebrated Scottish fl
nancier, John Law. to r~esuscitate the
French finances by removing some
Of the debt which followed the wars
of Louis XIV.
Money was to flow into France by
developing the resources Of the prov.
ince of Louisiana and the country
bordering on the Mississippi-a tract
at that time believed to abound in
precious metals.
A company was incorporated in
TIT and started with capital Of
100, 900 livres. Two hundred
thousand shares were placed on the
market and eagerly bought up.
In 1710, the company changed its
name and obtained q monopoly of
trading to the East Indies, China and
the South Seas and all the possess
sions Of the French East India COM
pany. The brilliant visions opened
up to the public gaze was irresistible.
Public enthusiasm became an alb
solute frenzy. A fictitious impulse
was given trade in Paris: paper cur
rency to the face value Of 2,700. 000, 600
livres flooded the country.
Many wary investors, ~foreseeing a
crisis, secretly converted their paper
and shares into gold. Scarcity OF
gold and silver in France becoming
acute, . general run was made on the
national bank. The government is
sued an order reducing the value of
bank notes and shares in the COM
pany by one-half.
The final crisis came in 1720, when
the bank stopped payment and Law
was compelled to flee the country. A
share in the Mississippi now brought
with difficulty - livres.

A LESSON IN WORLD PEACE

During the years since the World war, when the wisest
national leaders in the world have looked eagerly for
some way out Of the menace OF armed conflict, 1t has
grown more and more evident that one OF the most sig
nifcant facts on earth is the 3OOO-mile undefendcd
frontier between the United States and Canada.
Here are two nations that have found out how to get
along in peace. They have found out so we'll, and are
so confident about 1t. that they have taken it for granted
that nothing can ever make them 60 to war with each
other: th1; hey leave their frontier unguarded. without
a soldier or a warship along its length.
Now the English ar, beginning to realize the signifi-
canoe Of this fact. If Ramsay Macdonald and Herbert
Hoover confer this summer on naval reduction, the Can
adam frontier will surely stand in the forefront Of their
conversations. It shows what two nations can do If they
try. 1t gives Britain ari the United States a mark to
shoot at.

and ears, and am also bothered with
indigestion. Would like to try the
orange diet If / thought it would ben
eft me, but I am so very thin now
that I I'M afraid to try 1t for fear Of
losing more weight. Would it help
any to eliminate starches and sugars
instead of taking the orange diet, or
what would you adviser"
Answer-Do not be afraid of get
ting thinner on the orange Juice fast,
as It cannot hurt you in any way,
but will surely bring rapid results in
the cure of your catarrhal troubles.

Nose Always Red
Questions. K. G. asks: will you
please tell me what I can do for my

Answer-A red nose is an evidence
of continued ~intoxication, either from
the over-use Of alcoholic stimulants or
from dietetic errors which produce
autointoxication. The latter is the
most common cause Of red noses. and
even III most sincere prohibitionists
carry around a red shiny nose that in

Extended tests. he says, have proved to him that 90 per
cent of all hay fever Is caused by the ripened pollen of
the conmon rag~weed-which. incidentally, is grown on
practically every square mile of land, east OF the

AN OpTIMIST AND A WILL

The will left by w. H. Latta, indianapolis attorney who
was killed the other day in an automobile accident. is at
least unique.
After making minor requests. Latta directed that
$4,000 be deposited in a bank and kept for zoo years. Al
the end of that time it will have grown to approximately
$3.50 900, 900, and is to be used to start q pubic library
found a university. establish a conservatory OF music ana
benefit similar existing organizations.
A man has to have more than ingenuity to make a will
like that. He has to have a vast deal Of faith-faith IN
the existing order, faith in the institutions his fenowmen
have raised, faith In the continuance OF peace, prosperity
and the system Of capitalism.
A whole lot can happen in 200 years. Our own nation
has not yet lived that long. The city Of indianapolis,
where MI. Latta lived, will not be that old for many
decades. Enough changes have come IN the last century
to make q man dizzy: the changes that the next two GEN.
turtles bring may make Mr.. Latta's requests look rather
queer.
For example: It is quite within the bounds of posi-
bllity that public libraries will be as out Of date as stage
coaches. With radio. television. moving pictures and SUCH
like devices. it may be that people 200 years hence Will
never have to stir out Of their own homes to see. hear
and read anything they want to.
The same applies to universities. Who knows what our
educational system will be like 200 years from now? Isn't
il quite possible that universities. as they now exist. will
have been replaced by something entirely different? And
it is entirely too imaginative to suggest that the youth
who wants to study music. in the year 2l29, will simply
tune in" on his teacher, with radio and television, In his
own home-so that Conservatives of music as we know
them will be extinct?
Those are only q few Of the chances Mr.. Latta's be-
quests are taking. In 200 years we nay-for all anyone
now living k~nows-have passed beyond the realm Of pri-
vate property. Banks may be nonresident. Big be-
quests, by that time, may be confiscated by the state.
Or-saddest of all to SUGGESTIVE bank that holds the
$4,000 today may be out Of existence zoo years from now.
War, revolution. i'll luck. sudden shifts in the nations
economic trends-these unpredictable possibilities could
very easily remove Mr.. Latta's swollen fortune to the land
OF things that might have been.
To be sure. it may all work out Just as this attorney
planned it. But 200 years is a long ime-particularly in
view Of the fact that the world is changing faster now
than ever before in history.

A DIRECT MOVE FOR PEACE

Ramsay MacDonald,s decision to come to the United
States to talk with President Hoover about armament re-
duction is one Of the most refreshing things that has
happened in the field Of international relations In a long
time.
1t is always inspiring to find the leader Of a govern
ment willing to cut across the ties of red tape and 60 di-
rectly to the heart of any problem in a new way. The
British premier is doing precisely that-and he is. there
by, rendering the whole Englsh-speaking world a service.
During the last few years we have chanted necessarily
that a war between England and the United States is
"unthinkable," but we have allowed ourselves to drift
directly toward 1t. This meeting between Hoover and
Macdonald should do more to stop that drift than a
decade Of ordinary state department negotiations.
Every friend Of peace will applaud the British prime
ministers action.
