DOC, 600. The building of these two ships will radiatc a
prosperity into every state. About half the total of s2l,-
00O, 600 will be spent for materials. These materials are
in infinite variety and include iron orc, copper, many
kinds of lumber, brass, machinery of a hundred kinds,
batteries, glass, rubber goods, carpets, linens, crccRery'
hardware, silks, oil paintings, and hundreds OF other
items. A check by states from which the products that
60 into the ships come shows that 43 OF the AZ states III
the Union are represented. The least item is $4,000 from
North Dakota and the greatest item is about $l,6o0cO0
from New Jersey. The ships arc being built at Camden,
New Jersey.
The other half of the money in the ships goes about
So, 5O0,0 900 for direct labor and sl,00O,0O0 for taxes, insIr-
arce, inspection fees, and freight. The building of the
ships deals a substantial blow at unemployment. When
all labor clements arc considered, that is labor III the
building of the ships and labor in the creation of all the
items and materials that go. into them, it is found that the
total of work is the equivalent of employing 1900 we'll

for two years. Actually tr""c is a wide variation III the
number employ ed at any ono time.

r U BEFORE BEDTIME

Many persons enjoy eating small
portions of fresh fruit before bedtime
and find that this helps them to sleep
better and improves the bowel elm
ination in the morning. The action
Of the water, cellulose and fruit acids
encourages the peristaltic action OF
the bowels during the night In a mild
ly stimulating way that Is far supe-
rior to the use Of cathartics.
It is the custom in many foreign
countries to eat six or eight meals
every day, and although I do not ad-
vocate ~overeating, 1t seems that these
people do well, provided the meals are
not too large or heavy. Nervous per-
sons often find 1t helpful to take four
or five small meals q day rather than
two or three large ones. Whenever
more than three meals q day are
eaten it is much better to make at
least every n q fruit meal.
The average meal leaves the stom-
ach in about four hours, and for this
reason all heavy meals should be
spaced at least four or five hours
apart. Fruit or fruit juices when
used alone leave the stomach more
rapidly. For this reason, when n
is on q fruit juice or other liquid diet
it is equally advisable to take the
feelings at exact intervals Of two or
three hours apart.
Those who feel an appetite between
| meals or at night may ISL n kind
Of fresh fruit without injury. This
I is much better than filling up on
! sandwiches or sweets between meals.
A very fine after theater snack Is just

The fresh fruits should be used In
season. Not only r they least ex-
pensive, but are most wholesome and
favorable at the height Of the crop.
Melons, cherrie-,. apricots. grapes,
peaches, berries, loquats, figs, plums,
ETC., r now abundant, and you
should take advantage Of their
healthful food values.
It should be remembered that fruit
Is taken best by itself and not with q
meal containing heavier foods. The
acid Of fruit never seems to combine
well with the starchy mixtures OF an
ordinary meal. and when used to-
gether fermentation begins. Yet, on
the other hand, eating plenty Of fruit
is a healthful habit. and we all seem
to like the Juicy fruit in the summer
time.
The best plan is to make a meal Of
fruit by itself. Those who have an
appetite at night may U.s. fruit with
no fear of harm, but this should not
be sooner than about three o. four
hours after dinner. This is q much
better way to fill up late at night
than to raid the icebox. Another
good plan for the warm days Is to use
only some Of the fresh acid fruits for
lunch.
This has a cleansing and cooling

Amos-''n'-Andyitis


Amos-'n -Andytis is giving educators some concern.
At least one Massachusetts, official has expressed himself
as requested" over the situation. What Is the use of
spending millions of dollars annually to educate the youth
OF the state If boys and girls are to have access to such
a fountain of ~iliteracy as they now rush to an hour CT
two after they have been we'll stuffed with their daily
portion Of "readin', 'riun' and 'rithmetic'? This ap-
pears to be the burden of his complaint.
But, one might ask, is the situation as bad as pictured?
There may be nothing particularly cultural in Amos
n-Andytis, but is there not something educational in it
after ell? TIE fantastic language SO fluently used may
be distressing to the English purist, but its very gro
tesqueness may send many a boy or girl to the dictionary
In search Of definitions which a more cultural method OF
direction would fail to do. And there is. too, the homely
philosophy which accompanies Amos n'-Andyitis. And
more often than not there is in it a lesson easily learned
by the youngsters.
We do not think that educators need to become very
much alarmed over the prevalence of Amos m -Andyitis.
It would be somewhat of a difficult "propolition' to lin
corpolate" in one 'parigyraffee" the psychology OF the
Situation" 1t is sufficient to say that Amos-'n'-Andyit
needs no sanitary measures to prevent it from leaving
any deleteriouS effects upon the youth Of the nation.
This cannot be said Of everything that Is presented for
the amusement or entertainment Of tn: public.

Where Do w Go from Here?

A. long as times were booming, our current industrial
and economic system seemed fairly easy 10 ohoerS'aio'
Life was Jus. one long process OF expansion. some TIC"
miracle had made the sky the limit for virtually every
thing. Wages were always going to rise, safes lecoioS
were always going to go higher, and business gefelaiS
was always going to be better, each year. IMAM i d e
the year before.
It was beautifully simple, and it bred III nlosI OF os oil
,r+irr;sr, that was one of the ~prodigies of the age.
Now that things aren't doing quite so nicely, TINS op-
tirnisr is giving way to a pessim!sm equally excessive.
sackcloth and ashes are having their day. the industrial
system that formerly looked SO simple no" Sse"iS oon-
pleX beyond human understanding.
A good deal of the trouble, perhaps, grows out OF the
fact that our mechanical processes went aheao iaser
than our intellectual activities. We had never ootnefeo
10 try to understand this queer combination OF financial
and mechanical puzzles which brought prosperity. NO"
we are being forced to think about them; 1t Is no longer
rossible sirnplv to take the result for granted.
The upshot probably will be that we shall get back on
the highway to prosperity with a much clearer loea Oh
what the whole business is about, and consequently a
much better chance of getting there, than was the case
before.
For the present, however, the whole thing is very per-
picking.
The chief trouble in nearly every line of business, from
agriculture to the manufacture OF automooi1cs' seems W
be oyer-production. We have brought forth more wheat
more automobiles, more bricks, more suits OF clotnes
than can be sold. The result-idle farm lands, and FAC
tories which are working on a %part-time basis. II at all.
But what is the remedy? A strict curtailnnent Of pro-
duction all around? This means that many farm iandS
and many factories must remain idle permanently. More
serious than that, it also means that many laborcrs must
Go the same. Is that the only way out? II SO, we arc
indeed in a bad fix.
The optimism that carried us along during the last
half dozen years must come to the rescue now and per-
siede us that there is a better solution. Somewhere
there is a way by which we can use to the utmost our
amazing facilities for producing things without, at the
same time, clogging the channels of trade with a sur
plus. 1t is up to us to find this way. If the current bus
mess depression conpels us to stop and take thought Sc
that we do find it. we shall be amply repaid for the trou-
BILE 1t has caused US.

Editorial Comment
Polish Child Speaks Gaelic
London Ttt-BitS)

GO1IQO1 J"0I
When little Marie Skotnicki OF Warsaw, Poland, sud-
denly began to talk to herself in a tongue her parents
could not understand, they summoned a doctor, think
Ing that the child was the victim of some malady which
started her %gibbering in meaningless sounds.
the doctor told the amazed father and mother that
their daughter was speaking pure Gaelic. How this could
be, neither the Skotnickis nor their doctor could under
stand, for the child had never been away from her
naive town and her ears never had heard any Ian
guage except Polish.
Marie is a normal child in every respect and is more
than ordinarily pretty. On no other occasion has she
done anything to indicate that she is anything but a
healthy, happy girl.
The only clue that throws any light on the mystery
is the fact that Marie's great-grandfather Yves born
on the Island Of Lewis. This island is the largest of the
Outer Hebrides group off the northwest coast of Scot
land. and residents speak Gaelic Of more than usual
purity. Marics great grandfather died several years
before she was born.

Rail Safety Record Improved

Citing a reduction. in six years, of "a per cent in the
number of railway locomotive accidents, the Railway Age
sees, in that period, marked improvement in locomotive
construction, equipment inspection and repair, and IN
general operating methods.
Some very remarkable figures says the Railway Age,
illustrating the way in which accidents on railways have
been reduced, and in consequence the safety Of en-
ployes, passengers and the public has been increased,
were recently made public by A. G. Pack, chief inspector
Of locomotive of the Interstate Commerce commission.
The statistics related to accidents resulting from the
failure of some part or appurtenance of locomotives, but
they are an indication Of the improvement that has been
made in all parts of the railway plant and in all kinds
of operating methods.
mr.. Packs figures were for years ending June 80.
They showed that between 1923 and 1929 the percentage
of all locomotives inspected by his department. that were
found defective in any way declined from 65 to 81, and
for nine months of the year ended June 80. 1880, showed
a corresponding improvement. The number of locono-
tives ordered out of service because of defects declined
from TOTS in 1923 to 1890 in 1929. or 70 per cent. The
number of locomotive accidents decreased from 1913 to
35e, or "a per cent. The number of persons killed due
to these accidents decreased from y to 10, or "a per cent.
The number of persons injured decreased from 1850 to
800, or Is per cent. In the meantime, the average speed
at which freight trains were operated increased % per
cent.
This substantial improvement has undoubtedly been
brought about said MI. Pack, by great improvement in
locomotive construction, equipment inspection and re-
pair, and is due to the fact that railroad officers are
showing greater interest in such matters than ever be-
fore, all of which is in the interest of greater safety to
the public and employees, as well as efficiency and econ
ony in operation
mi. Pack might also have said without immodesty, !"
continues the Railway Age. that the improvement has
been due not only to the things he mentioned, but also
to cooperation between the government department he
represents and railway arrangements. There is often
complaint, much Of which is just, of undue government
interference, but the locomotive inspection department
Of the commission has found that the best results are
secured by close cooperation between the regulating au-
thority and those on whom regulation is imposed, and
the statistics given are sufficient proof of the results
that have been obtained by this policy"

Today Is the
Anniversary of
DUMAS

On July "a. 1902. Alexandra Dumas,
the greatest French romantic novelist
and the greatest story-teller of the
world, was born at Villers-C otterets.
Dumas vas the grandson of the
Marquis Alexandra Davy de la Pail
leterie and a negress. both of Haiti.
AS a writer Dumas is remarkable
for creative rather than for artistic
genius.
Dumas inclined at first to law and
was a%pprenticed to a notary of
Scissors where he saw a play that
determined him to seek his fortune
on the stage.
He was, at one time, a secretary in
the household of Louis Philippe.
Although his best work was almost
all done between 1843 and 1850. in one
way or another Dumas is responsible
for 298 closely printed novels.
At the last came four years Of
somewhat senile poverty, relieved by
the son whose boyhood he had neg
lected and whose youth he had mis-
guided.
He died on Dec. S, 1870.
Wisconsin has about 8,671 900 acres
of pasture land.

Answer: Anyone less than 80 can
increase his height to some extent
through a combination Of dieting,
exercising and taking certain treat
ments. The diet must contain plenty
Of BODYBUILDING material, which is
found in the leafy green vegetables
and In whole grains. Exercises should
be designed to twist and stretch the

chiropractor. You are about a half
inch taller in the morning than in
the evening. This Is due to the set
Ting of the bones of the body. prin-
cipally In the spine, at the end of
the day. Treatments given the spine
to loosen up and separate the spinal
segments will help the circulation of
blood to these parts, and tends to
stimulate the growth Of bone.

Parity in Peace

The United States is now committed and is in action
to achieve parity or even supremacy in the peace forces
OF the sea, namely the merchant marine. Contracts have
been signed by the United States Lines, a one hundred
per cent American organization, for the building of the
two largest passenger vessels that have ever been built in
the United States. When completed in 1882 they will
be placed on the North Atlantic as companions to the
Leviathap, largest ship in the world, on the run to Cher
bourg and Southampton.
Work has already started on the ships. They will be
10000 gross tens each and Will cost 4 total Ct about s2l,-
