A Good Start

While in theory il makes little difference to the
public as to what members OF the house and senate
obtain the honors in practice it means much.
The Speaker Of the house is very important man.
He can do much, if he wishes. either advance or
impede the progress of legislation He can, times
put bills which the majority desire in his pocket or he
can write amendments into them after they have been
voted. These things have happened.
The legislature which starts its today. has
apparently broken away from the old alignments in
the Republican party and selected its leaders from
those Who in the past have chafed and objected to
some of the things which made the last three sessions
notable for their misdeeds rather than their good
ones.
Perhaps one of the reasons leading up to this is
in a changed attitude of the members from Marion
county toward the local boss The members this year
have been more in the confidence of the public spirited
citizens who might be loosely called the city manager
group rather than under the orders of Boss Coffin
The selection of officers of the legislature indi-
Gates that Coffin does not have that iron control
which came to him with the advent of Stephenson
and which he continued even after the cell doors had
closed upon his associate in politics
The selection OF Senator Harlan of Richmond is
an especially hopeful sign 1t takes away from Lake
county the power which ruled in that body and,
back of Lake county, those FORCES Oh utility greed
which have been very busy in making laws for the
people.
The people have every reason to be at least little
more hopeful this session. They may expect this egs
Iaure to refrain from of the practices which re-
suited in the killing of good measures and the passage
of bad
OF course, the organization of the legislature is
only one step.
The price of freedom from sinister forces is eternal
vigilance The old influences do not yield completely
with one setback They know what they want. They
have usually obtained exactly what they wanted.
This legislative session is important to indianapolis
It. is important because it hodS to some degree, the
destiny OF the city manager law That law must be
STRENGTHENED not weakened here must be resistance
to any effort of politicians in both parties to kill the
law.
The first action, however, is such to give conf
dence in a new alignment of forces, perhaps in re-
pentance for past sdeeds and real desire to restore
government TO the people and take it away from the
discredited machine.

TRACY
If Oklahoma Does Not

ment of Governors VIII
Become a Habit
SAYS:

TINE idea of what constitutes an
j. injury and how it can be re-
paired by payment in coin of the
realm is coming to include lot of
TERRITORY.
Ambulance chasing and the heart
balm suit have grown too common
place to attract attention, but now
comes a Wisconsin father, suing a
school teacher in the name of his
12-year-old daughter for $4,000 be-
cause the latter made her wear a
placard by way of punishment.
Whatever one may think of such
a case, it certainly is fortunte that
it did not become popular in those
good old days when children were
birched, obliged to wear the Ounce
cap. and numerically ridiculed.
The proposition of making school
teachers pay for the humiliation
and mental anguish they cause pu-
pills in connection with discipline
may be original. but it comes too
late. The discipline has grown too
soft, the punishment too mild, the
injury too little.
What the legal fraternity should
seek is some way to collect dam
ages for the down-trodden, reviled
and long suffering school teacher,
if it would do justice and turn an
honest penny at the same time.

Save the Primary

How FAR the legislature will follow the recon-
mendations of Governor Jackson in his final mes
sage to that body is question.
It is quite possible that there will be effort to
Use his advice as argument against the measures
he advocates, rather than for them.
That would be unfortunate. No one, even if he
tried could be consistently wrong, any more than any
one can be 100 per cent right.
TIE people, not the politicians will ndorse the last
word OF Governor Jackson in his attitude toward the
primary.
The politicians in his own party ale determined
to destroy that method of nominating candidates.
The Governor says that the primary, with all It's
faults is the only plan yet devised under which the
people have any voice in the nominating of party
tickets.
That is unuuestonably true. 1t is also true that
the politicians believe that they destroy the pri
mary or so mutilate that in the future those who
desire Office must make their bargains with bosses
in back rooms
The repeal of the primary and the bringing back of
the convention system is the goal 1t will be urged
under the specious plea that the Republican state
platform promised it to the people AS matter of his
tory no candidate for state Office or the legislature
made that repeal issue The election this year was
not determined by state issues.
If 1t had been, a very different set OF faces would
be seen in the statahouse.
Friends of the primary should rally to its support
and save it, if possible.
For his final word of warning, Governor jackson
is to be thanked.

His One Fear

Were you ever out in the Great Alone when the
moon was awful clear.
And the icy mountains bemmed you in with silence
you most could hear;
With only the howl of timber wolf and you camped
there in the cold"
In the Klondke miner and gambling king, Tex
Richard lived a life CT danger.
When the Texas norther comes sudden and soon,
in the dead of night the blaze of noon, the herd
stampedes-and life holds no terrifying moment
than then
But such a moment all in a days work for Tex
Richard the cowpuncher. He faced it, calm and I'M
afraid.
AS deputy United States marshal in tough from
tier he got his man" And that too, all in a
days work.
No drawer man lived in our time than the one who
now has met his death because he afraid of just
one thing-the surgeons knife.
He had been warned for years that appendicitis
would get him unless he submitted to operation
Shoot me, but don't cut me- he said.
And despite all the warnings, he refused to I'M
de1go that which many man less brave than
Rickard, had undergone.
AS with the elephant that will charge the jungle
but is afraid of mouse, so there was that one
weakness in the armor of Richards courage.
And so Tex died

A curious phase of the poison liquor subject is
found in the fact that the federal agency that
is supposed to enforce prohibition also is supposed to
enforce the pure food and drug act
1t is the treasury department.
The result Of prohibition is failure in both di-
rections far liquor is concerned. Whatever eff
fort is applied goes merely to leSSenng the illicit sale
of alcoholic beverages If those beverages are found
to contain wood alcohol that is that Nothing is done
far violation OF the pure food and drug statutes
are concerned for the right hand of the treasury de-
partment apparently knoweth not what the left
hand doeth.
We make bold to suggest that, since enforcement
of the prohibition law has been manifest failure
to date, the treasury department try few prosecu-
tons under the pure food and drug statutes
They might not do much good, but they would
at least break the monotony.

Why Unemployment?

A senate committee and other agencies are trying
to ind out why in this rich country, should be
out Of work and what can be done about it.
Possibly the public and some of these agencies are
taking the Job too lightly. Some seem to think if
congress waves legislative wand and Presidential
Hoover an executive wand, the Job millennium viii
have arrived and everyone who wants work will have
it at high wages.
It is not so simple. One witness before the senate
committee on education and labor said industrys
chief duty henceforth should be to give high wages
and steady work The government must help in
this, somehow.
The independent workman of century ago has
become a machine-tender. Some of the machines can
90 as much work as a thousand men, and almost
every day we read some amazing new invention which
does away with more men. Up to few years ago
the chief problem was to get enough for the worlds
millions to eat and wear
This situation has changed. and, it seems per-
manently Machines in almost every industry can
and do turn out more than can be used-so much
more that they must lie idle part of the time. The
effect is two-fold. machine is invented which can
do the work of 100 men, One may tend it, but where
are the other ninety-nine to goP Some may go into
the work of building and repairing the machine some
into new industries-generaly at jobs not good
they had. Many cannot find work They become the
unemployment problem And they can't buy; the
market is lessened. and the machines must slow
down still more.
So the problem of unemployment involves pretty
much our whole industrial and business life. Its so
luton involves much more than merely looking
around to And Jobs and men and bringing the two
together.

Power of WhiSkerS

A FGHANISTAN is not the only
N land in which whiSkers can
become an issue. They cropped up
in New York court Tuesday, when
witnesses for the state found it
difficult to identify defendant who
had not shaved during the six
months he had been in jail
The defendant was Frank De
Marco, who was being tried for
robbery. When, arrested he was
clean shaver, but hit op the bright
idea of allowing nature to take its
course.
Six months were enough to
change him from the ordinary
smooth-faced man of today to the
bewhiskered, shaggy, fierce looking
Individual of four or five centuries
ago.
1t is funny thing how much
hair can do to alter personal APP
pearance.
When Nordeet was called upon to
identify some thirty confidence men
who had been held in a Denver
church cellar over night, there was
one he could not place. That one
had pulled out all the hair on his
head, and looked like a perfect
stranger, until Norfieet ordered him
to put on his hat.

Reason

rT0HE House of Representatives at

ventilating device and we wish it
success, but we have our doubts. All
other efforts have failed, and the
only time a representative gets the
air is when the voters hand 1t to
him at the polls.

tive chamber and if this last effort

We hope the report that Booth
Harrington is losing his sight is I'M
true, for through his writings he
has given delight, understanding,
and inspiration to the people Of the
country.
He never disparaged his own peo-
pie; he never Sneered at old-fash-
Toned things, and his readers never
have been compelled to wear gas
masks.
Long may he live and see and
write.
Fred Warman resigned his posi-
ton in the Indiana state law
library because he was unwilling to
work for a woman.
All we have to say to Fred is that
he will never celebrate a golden
wedding.
If it's true that AL Smith has
three bathrooms in his New York
apartment, he might as well hang
up his political fiddle, for he never
can carry a state west of the Al
leghenies.
Some will be shocked to hear that
the home brewers of the United

for malt during 1927, but it should
be remembered that they have done
much to keep the home fires burn

addition to doing well the work he
was expected to do, he developed
the air mail and thereby did more
for aviation than anybody else in

These three divisions are the fore-brain the mid
brain and the hind-brain
Perhaps you would like to know the scientific names
which have been given these three parts in the case
of the lamprey. Well then, here they are: ProSen-
cephalon, mescencephalon and rhombencephalon.
These formidable scientific names are merely Greek
meaning virtually the the simpler names.
The fore-brain of the lamprey has two bud-like
growths either side These are the ofactory lobeS
and the central henispheres.
In the accompanying Illustration which compares
the structure of the lamprey and the human brains,
the cerebral hemispheres are marked with is and
the olfactory lobes with "2s'
The human brain is complicated because of the
tremendous growth of the cerebral hemspheIes in the
case of man.
The mid-brain of the lamprey consists of two no.
low lobes called the optic lobes because the optic

The hind-brain is the largest part of the anprey's
BRAIN The nerves. comparable to the nerves in man
arise in the hind-hran.
1t is possible to trace steady development of brain
size and organization from the lamprey to man.
In the shark, for example better organization of
the cerebral henispheres is found.
Frogs and birds show still higher type of brain
When to mammals. we find a still more
complex brain structure.
Next to man, the apes have the most highly de-
veloped brain structure
The huge bulk of the human brain consists chiefly
Of the cerebral heInispheres.

What of liz

ONCE I had no foot or ankle fit
~ to be publicly displayed at
Hesse's bar, 1 thought for a time
that 1 might try to be one of ma
lures noblemen. I'd read of such.
That notion I discarded If I
couldn't be a gentleman by the easy
route of heredity, I wouldn't play
at all.
The advantages of being a gentle
man are much exaggerated. The
word is much too loosely used.
Certainly it was first employed to
designate people of fixed social
station. Qualities of soul and spirit
were not essential. A gentleman
could be an arrant rascal, and not
infrequently he was.
BY any strict definition, a gentle
man is a person gently bred who
derives, partly from training and
possibly from inherited race mem
DRY if there is any such thing a
fidelity to a certain code.
And know by now that it is
much more pleasant not to be con-
ditioned by these regulations since
the philosophy of life which
animates them is for the most part
silly.

Greyhound of Sea

WYE talk about 30-knot ships,
Wv but Germany builds them. The
Hamburg American line, unable to
purchase the Europa and Bremen,
two monster craft now under con-
struction for the North German
Lloyd line, has concluded arrange
ments to build a trans Atlantic
greyhound which will outrun all
rivals. She not only will be large
and luxurious, but will clip day off
the fastest time now required to
cross the ocean.
In this connection it is. interesting
to note that Germany is making
money, as well as progress, and that
a coed deal of that money is finding
its way into the pockets of the COM
mon people.
A report just issued reveals the
fact that there are now $1,785, 000,-
900 in German savings banks, which
is eleven times the amount they
held four years ago.

Chickenb0x and Shin giles Related

People with herpes Zoster or
shingles complain most OF the burn
ing pain in the area involved, and
it is not infrequent for neuralgia
to be associated with the skin erup-
ton.
There is much evidence to indi-
cate relationship between this dis
ease and chickenpox, but thus far
the causative organism of neither
disease has been discovered.
Apparently the responsible organ
ism is so small that it can be filtered
through the most dense of clay fill
tiers, for this reason being called a
filtrable virus.
When the Inflammation subsidies,
the shingles disappear so that the
chief attention of the physician in
such cases is given to keeping the
person in a state of good nutrition
and free from infection.

Debts and Honor

TIME CODE Of gentleman, in
4 the old style sense, is Just as
ridiculous, but the word has man
aged to retain it's popularity. Some
of the obligations of being a gen.
tleman are so obviously preposter-
GUS that they have been sloughed off
even by those to the manor born
Not so long ago if you trod on the
toe of member of the fraternity
he was in honor bound to fight q
duel about it. Unless, of course, the
main who did the treading happened
to be a Broun, in which case the
unwary walker was not worthy to be
shot or stabbed upon the field of
honor Besides when a Broun walks
across foot there is such a crunch
ing Of bones in the aristocratic in
step that there could be 30 meeting
until the compound fracture had
mended.
After a time people decided that
| it was more fun not to be shot than
be gentleman.
But the debt Of honor remains. IN
this respect the professional gambler
and the gentleman meet on equal
footing ] don't mean that man
should not pay what he Loses at
bridge. or stud, or craps. LIN fact J
fully intend to mail that check TO-
night.
The code Of a gentleman. howe CT,
demands that gambling obligations
take precedence over the bills Of tic
butcher, the landlord, and any
starving family, no matter how large
and miserable.
What gentleman calls a debt of
honor I call a debt of diversion and
I refuse to admit that it carries
some peculiar sanctification which
makes it more holy than any other
honest obligation.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

Shingles usually occurs following
some infectious disease, but in many
instances it it's impossible to asso-
ciate the condition with any def
mite disorder
Apparently it is associated with
the infection of the root Of one or
more nerves which causes an in
flammation of the nerve, pain, and
an affection of the skin over the
nerve.
The skin responds to the infec-
tons by an eruption of water bis
tiers an inch or so wide resting on
a swollen skin.
The physician diagnoses the con-
dition because the blisters are limit
ed in their distribution to the area
of skin served by single nerve.
Thus it is that the disease usually
occurs only on one side of the BODY
and not on both sides.

Oklahoma Fireworks

a STORM brews in Oklahoma.
1 A Anti administratio forces have
gained control of the legislature and
it looks as though Governor Henry
Johnston would be impeached.
Among other things, Governor
Johnston is charged with employ
ing woman as his confidential sec
retary, for which there is no pro-
vision in the statutes, and of en-
ploying as special state agent man
who was under conviction for
burglary and who is now in the
penitentiary.
Former Governor Walton, who
was impeached six years ago,
watches proceedings from specta-
tors seat.
It is not every state that can i'm
peach a Governor while former
impeached Governor looks on.
If Oklahoma does not look out the
impeachment of Governors will be-
come habit.

one of the most important public services of the
year by government agency.
The commission will renew inquiry into the ways

The commission has revealed that some schools
