SCIENCE SEEKS TRUTH

Although liable to other mortas, the
true scientist approaches every problem with an
open mind. unfettered by prejudice.
He has ancient beliefs superstitions to de-
fend, special cause to plead selfish interest to
advance He tries at all times to define, far as is
humanity possible the dividing line between fact and
theory, although he deals with both.
New theories are given respectful examination
and if they can be proven they assigned their
places in the categories of fact And when the
scientific world in general reaches agreement in
any matter it is the best possible evidence of its
truth, Charles E. Hughes once said in addressing
scientific association:
1--WE need your interesting knowledge for its own
sake your ceaseless search for truth your willingness
discard every disproved theory, however honored
by tradition, while you jealousy conserve every gain
of the past"
While the scientific investigator, as rule, re-
ceves meager material rewards in return for his
services to mankind, all progress both material and
intellectual has been primarily due to his labors.
Without the leadership of inqusitive, investi-
eating andindomntable minds, should not have
advanced far beyond the standards of the man.

Prospects Very Good for
Excellent Tourist Season
Inquiries Concerning Vacations are
Running Far Ahead of
Last Year

Prospects for a banner tourist
year for Minnesota were never bet
ter if mail inquiries can be used in
making comparisons with other
years according to H. G. Hotaling,
state tourist commissioner and Sec
rotary of the Ten Thousand Lakes
Greater Minnesota Association.
All records have been broken by
inquiries received in response to
the advertising of the association
and the number Of letters being re-
ceived concerning vacations more
than triples the number received at
this time last yeaer.
On Thursday, May % the names
of 4190 persons making inquiries
concerning vacations in Minnesota
had been listed. On May % last
year only 1912 names had been list
ed. 1t was June 20 last year be-
fore AGO names had been listed.
These figures according to Mr..
Hotaling would indicate that Min
nesota should enjoy an exception
ally good tourist year, weather and
financial conditions remaining

CHILDREN SACRIFICED

From India comes news of further human life
sacrificed to superstition. The young son of ma
tive official fell sick and thought to be possessed
of the devil, whereupon it sought to appease a
local goddess and exercise the devil by offering up
the lads sister sacrifice, which was done
The boy failed to respond to this vicarous treat
ment, so he was bound naked near a holy place and
allowed to die of starvation and exposure.
The boys father and two brothers were sentenc-
ed to death for the crime and his sister-nlaw was
given life Imprisonment.
While such proceedings appear heathenish to us
today and they certainly are heathenish, may
fleet that equally atrocious crimes committed
at Salem, Massachusetts, at the instigation of a
president of Harvard University, Rev. Increase Ma
ther and his son. Rev Cotton Mather, in 1892
With the horrible Salem witchcraft deluson in
mind, should not condemn the benighted natives
of India too hastily.

6 months old she can have all the
grain she will eat up twice a day.
After that give her enough to keep
her in good condition and growing
well. Weigh the feed or have a
measure that holds a certain num-
Der of pounds so that you know
just how much you are feeding.
For the first few months the grain
may be fed whole, after that it
should be ground coarse.
Corn and barley are more or less
fattening; oats, bran, and oilmeal
are growing feeds.
The following mixtures are good
with alfalfa hay: Equal parts
ground corn or barley, ground oats
or bran. With clover hay, equal
parts ground bran.
With mixed hay, three parts
ground corn or barley, three parts
ground oats, three parts bran Goats
may be substituted for the bran)
one part oilmeal.
Ground soybeans may be submit
ted for the oilmeal.
If your calf is thin, feed a little
more corn or barley until you get
her back into condition.
You should try at all times to
keep your calf in good growing
condition; not fat, but in good
smooth condition so that you can
feel a little flesh over the ribs. IF

would be well to add little to her

The ''Old Swimming Hole"
Has Valiant Defender
Disease Bacteria More Prevelant in
Private Pools Than in the
Average Creek

st. Paul, May 29-The "Old
Swimming Hole as a time-honored
place for play and recreation, has
found a defender. Neglected be-
cause of it's murky waters. con-
demned because it might be a
breeding spot of bacteria, the edu-
cationai committee of the Mime
sofa State Medical Association this
week announces that if the place
is fed by constant waters it is prob
ably as good a place to battle in as
some of the modern cement pools
The things which make any
swimming place source from
which disease is spread, are the
stagnation of water in which many
human bodies have bathed, the un-
restricted use of the bathing place
by sick and well alike, and pollu-
ton with domestic sewage" de-
clares the bulletin of the State
Medical Association.
Bacteria are dangerous if they
are disease producing and disease
producing bacteria are most likely
to be shed from the the bodies of
people, and particularly when they
are sick. It is, therefore, import
ant that all swimming pool water
be as free from bacteria of human
source as possible and that all
pools be so governed that people
who are obviously sick are exclud-
ed from bathing in them. The old
swimming hole was not danger
Gus because it was usually off the
trail of human travel, and because
it was constantly purified by the
flow of the stream.
Because Of the necessity of or
ganized play and partly because of
modern prejudice to bathing in nat
ural waters, many types of artifi-
cial outdoor pools have been con-
structed as well as indoor pools.
These places when not properly
operated become stagnant water
filed with the bacteria washed
from the bodies Of hundreds of
bathers. They are far more dam
gerous than the creek or lake.
Swimming in natural waters is
safe provided they are not polluted
with domestic sewage. Swimming

HAMILTON, N. Y, July 24.-If
friends laugh this Summer at the man
who claims the noise of the katydids
and the whip-poor-will on a Summer
night in the country keeps him. awake,
he can point to scientific sleeping ex-
periments at Colgate University to
prove that he is not so far from normal.
In the Colgate psychological labora-
tory, under direction of DR.. Donald A.
Laird, head Of the department, there
Is an electrical apparatus which records
the muscular tension Of the entire body
without awakening the sleeper.
Although this apparatus has not
measured the disturbances that might
be caused by katydids and whip-poor-
wills. it has recorded others, more
commonplace and even more aStoniSh-
ing.
Variances Shown by Line.
The apparatus makes a line on a
sheet of paper, swinging upward as re-
Taxation increases and downward as
tension sets in toward wakefulness.
Sleeping in a 10-room house which
is used as the Colgate sleep laboratory,
one mans chart at about 1870 am.
showed an abrupt drop when an auto
truck passed. Although the increase in
tension went a considerable distance
down toward the leVel OF complete
wakefulness, the sleeper did not open
his eyes or visibly move.
Soon after 2:30, when another sleep

great. Then about 4:30, when a win
dow slammed, the automatic pencil de-
scribed q longer drop than even for
the truck.
Sleep Not Entirely Broken.
In no case. however, did the sleeper
wake up. Throughout the night there
were other smaller drops Of which DR..
Laird says:

but are conjecturing that 1t may have
been dreams. 1t is possible. of course,
that poor sleeping equipment or room
too hot may cause some of them, but,
again, we still have to conjecture. In
two or three years we shall know rather
definitely"
The charts show that there is more
relaxation on the average in the first
hour than in the succeeding two and
half hours And then during the last
hour Of sleep there is an abrupt ten
dency for still more relaxation.

by two former Colgate students. QUO
