one.
President: Why?
First Vice President: All the good ones have been

Silver Back on the Job

Bob Silver is back on the Job. That is, he is back
behind the walls of a prison. He was captured by
Houston police officers. His captors will receive a
reward of $3.50 offered by the governor.
Bob Silver was condemned to die in the electric
chair. A merciful governor committed his sentence to
life Imprisonment. A mothers fearful wall won the
respite.
Bob Silver betrayed the confidence Of mother and
governor and all those who interested themselves in
his case. When an opportunity presented itself he
ESCAPED from prison and returned to his wallow in
the mire, only to be run down and captured by the
sleuths of the law.
There is another mother, broken-hearted in the

And now John Bull, speaking through Winston
Churchill of the Baldwin government, has announced
the adjustment of the 300-year-old tax on tea, which
has been levied since the days Of Queen Elizabeth
1t will cost the Baldwin government in revenue
about 6,15Oy000 pounds to reduce the cost OF tea to
the consumer four pence a pound by the removal OF
the tax.
In addition to this the spokesman Of the Baldwin
government announced the betting tax would be re-
pealed. Britons of high or low degree love their tea
They love to bet on the ponies.
Now tea is to be free Of duty and betting on the
ponies without a tax cost the privilege Of all English
men.

"In Spring a Young Mans
Fancy"

But whose fancy would fail to turn to thoughts
of love these beautiful spring mornings-and after
moons and nights-in the Lower Rio Crande Valley?
Is it any wonder that the man who works in an
office thinks Of changing his vocation and taking up
farming or some other outdoor pursuit, when, as he
goes to the office he breathes a few whiffs OF the
clean invigorating outside air? His body, warmed
by the gentle spring sun, begins to glow and Jingle
and visions Of the old boyhood swimming hole come
to his mind. He thinks of the delight of lying on
his back under the shade of a tree with a fishing
pole clutched between his knees and with a line
hanging idly in the stream below.
Is IT any wonder the urge to play "hooky" becomes
almost irresisitable-even as it did in his scnooi days!
What we are coming to is this:
If the kind Of weather the Valley Is enjoying now
has that effect on the natiyes-and 1t does-no"
much more alluring would 1t be to residents OF nortn-
ern chimes. where the ice is just now leaving the
streams and planting of crops has just begun?
Where in lust a few weeks they will be sweltering in
the terrific summer heat that causes death from
prostration?
Valley boosters, chambers Of commerce, land de-
velopers and individuals have been singing the praise
of the winter climate and the attractions OF the VAL
ley In the colder months.
What Of our spring weather, OF the summers ana
the autunns?
Some day a real national advertising campaign is
going to be launched to tell the outside and interested
citizenship of Just what this section has to offer.
Climate will be one Of the principal commodities
offered in that advertising campaign.
There will be no need to overstate the facts. But
the publicity should not harp too strongly on the
mild winters. The balmy springs, the comfortable
summers and the pleasant auturnns deserve full
coverage," to use a newspaper expression.
Advertise Valley climate the year round.

Health and Right Living
By ROYAL 9. COPELAND, M. ID.
Former Commissioner Of Health,

mention the report OF an address
made by q noted neurologist. This
doctor Is quoted as saying that
"the fate OF q child destined for In
sanity Is sealed before It's birth"
It Is not fair to draw conclusions
without q full rading Of the ad-
dress. It may well be that this
single sentence does not do justice
to the doctors real meaning. I
hope it does not. Life would be
seriously marred II there were no

have too much faith In Nature,
as well as in science, to believe that
q baby is predestined and foreor-
dained to the damnation Of insanity.
Admitting the menace of a bad
family history. I am bound to be-
lieve that insanity is not inevitable.
A further reading of the news
paper report gives a glimmer of
hope. The doctor does admit that
"a good environment will keep

this I am in full agreement.

are fond of their children"
For single children" he said,

percentage to the number Of Adde'S

prone to have q bad environment,
due to being loved too much, with
the selfish love of a mother who
has only one child"
No serious minded and thinking
person can doubt the importance

of authority from the training of a
child, Is like removing the bal

out 1t, the watch will run at ter
rifle speed and, in a minute or two,
turn the hand about the dial as
only twenty-four hours Of time
should do.
The eating habits, respect for
morals. the control Of the emotions
all these r established in the
home. Without proper training in
youth, I agree that the bad hered-
ity of the child will assert itself.
Mother love Is the most compel
ling and most sincere thing in all
the world. 1t always hurts me to
say a thing that may offend a de-
voted mother. But we must admit
that many a child has been spoiled
by too much attention of one sort
and not enough Of another.
To yield to every whim of the
child, to seek to anticipate its ev-
cry want. to indulge its every de-
sire-in these we have evidence Of
giving too much attention. and at
tention Of the wrong sort.
To watch its food and eating
practices, to see that the rules Of
simple hygiene are observed-in
these we have evidence of Of prop
er attention. Care Of this sort
will be rewarded in the good health
and increasing vigor Of the child.
II the environment is what 1t
should be, II the kindly direction
Of the parents is unfailing, If ev-
cry evidence Of ill-health and ply
steal defect Is quickly treated, we
may expect the child to overcome
its hereditary tendencies in the
great majority Of cases.
