ESZEMA ALMOST
UNBEATABLE
Resinol Heals

Some time ago eczema broke
out on my leg. After weeks of
special treatment during which
time the itching and burning
was so severe I could hardly
stand it. I was told nothing
more could be done for me. A
friend of mine urged me to try
ReSinol Ointment. which l did.
I am happy to say 1t healed
my leg completely and I have
never had any breaking out
since. My husband also used
ReSinol for a rash on his hands
with the same excellent results.

"OLERANT laughter greeted an
art exhibition a few years ago,
when some extremists In the
modern movement showed what
could be done with curious materials.
On display were pictures and sculp-
lures. many OF which bore a striking
likeness TO the objects they YER
supposed to depict But. instead OF
the usual mediums OF the painter
and the sculptor. they used every
thing else. Glass and metal were
artfully combined to portray . Ger.
tain celebrity. Wood was used. but
not carved In the conventional way
1t was modelled with splinters. and
some startling results were obtained
In stil lie and landscapes suggested
by a combination OF wood. straw.
bits Of cloth. metal and glass.
But. whether that exhibition was
taken seriously or not. the fact is
that the ideas have penetrated since
then into all sorts Of standard decor
atoms. The result is a much en-.
larged field from which 10 choose.

ment, to improve his education and
physical health.
Public health officials, together
with various welfare institutions,
have labored for better living con-
ditions for the child. Philosophical
citizens have given unstintedly Of
time and money in his behalf. And
yet we have child labor with US.
In America today 100000
children are gainfully employed.
Strange to say, there are just that
many adults, too, who are out of
employment. In short, SO many
children work that adults are on
| the street. The American public
must awaken to a realization that
thousands, no millions, of little
children. and children of adolescent
age, are being exploited for money,
and society now and hereafter
must suffer IN consequence
To be sure, the economic stress
forces boys and girls out into the
world for gain before they have
completed their grammar school
education They see, perhaps many
of them, no reason why the child
should not exc out the family
budget just as well as the adult of
the family. But that is the view
point Of a quarter Of "a century
ago.
Now, we know the medi-
cal men will tell you-that child
labor brings with il a vast deal Of
misery. poor health, and death. In
the last analysis il is uneconomic.
The National Child Labor Com
mittee recently made a report OF
some of the health hazards among
children in industry-things which
make US pause and think. / quote
from this report:
'In a study Of the causes OF
death among children. we find that
If we compare the mortality be-
tween those from 10 to l5 years
with those of from l5 to 20 years.
there is a sudden jump of tUbercu-
losis from fourth place to first.
This is particularly true IN the case
of girls. in which. in the age period
Of 10 to 20, tuberculosis accounts
for nearly one-third of the deaths.
But our figures reveal still
more. In the age period between
10 and Is years, diseases Of the
heart and the circulatory system
head the causes of death and even
in the next five-year period, from
10 to 20, they rank second only 70
tuberculosis. These figures reflect
the infections in early life, and
they indicate the great Importance
of supervising the health OF chill
dren and adolescents leaving school
to enter gainful employment"
Doctors all agree that a child
needs a certain amount OF out-of-
doors recreation and rest every
day. At least five hours are de-
to school tasks, and then
very often home work IS demanded.
These are the years when the child
Is growing and building up his
body for later years. II is q period
Of growth when the foundation Or
future health Is laid.
The A merle public must
Eaken to the menace Of these mil
lions Of children IN enforced labor.
There must come drastic measures
TO prevent the traffic in child la-
Dor. The health and welfare OF
The coming generation are in the
hands Of every citizen Of the coun-
