BOSTON POLICE STRIKE

ION Sept. 9, 1919, following the
~ suspension of nineteen officers
for activities connected with their
affiliation with the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, 1900 Boston police
men went on strike to enforce the
recognition of their newly formed
union. 1t was the first police strike
in the United States.
Rioting and disturbance imme-
diately resulted and provost
guard was brought from the navy
yard to quell the disturbers.
Stores throughout the city were
broken into and robbed. The fol-
lowing day the city was placed un-
der martial law and cavalry and
5000 members of the state guard
patrolled the streets
Governor Calvin Coolidge tele-
graphed the secretary Of war and
the secretary of navy asking for
federal military assistance in cast
the state guard was insufficient.
Shortly after this, Samuel Com
pers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, requested that
the policemen return to their posts
until after the industrial confer
enee.
Coolidge refused to give the
striking policemen back their
jobs and a new body of policemen
was formed. Through the nation
wide attention he attracted by his
firm stand for law and order
Coolidge gained political fame.
AS a result be became vice-pfesi-
dent and later president, on the
death OF President Harding.

provided for regular inspections OF
all children in school and for at
tending to the correction of physical
deficiencies thereafter.
In the vast majority of instances
however, such organized effort is
not put forth. Perhaps it is far
better that parents take the
initiative and take the child to the
family physician before the begin
ming of school for a physical ex-
animation and for correction of such
defects as may be determined.
Experience has shown that the
chief defects usually found concern
the sight, the hearing, the tonsila
and adenoids, the teeth, fiat feet
bad posture, and nutrition.
The defects are practically all
correctible. When they are cor
rected the child has a better chance
to succeed in his school work, and
certainly more opportunity for
happier existence.

We Can Rejoice

IRON a national standpoint,
Il British newspapers are right in
bemoaning the fall Of Irigoyen.
He was partial to the develop
ment of British interests in Argen-
tina, and in so far as such attitude
made it necessary he was not par
ticularly kind toward development
Of American interests.
To about the same extent that
our British cousins can discover a
cause for sadness in his unhappy
fate. we can discover reasons for
rejoicing.
Not that the new regime prom
1ses to be prejudiced in our favor,
but that it is likely to be fair, which
is all we ask.
In this connection the speed and
precision with which Irigoyen was
overthrown and a new government
established augurs we'll for Argen-
tina's immediate future.
Obviously, this was no half baked
rebellion, set off spontaneously by
sparks of discomfort, or guided by
a leadership which had not con-
sidered carefully what should be
done after the shooting was over.
Back OF the dramatic events
which occurred last week and which
resulted in a complete change of
government, there must have been
months of organizing.
When General Uriburu gave the
word, not only the army, but the
navy, struck as one man. Not only
that, but the people apparently
were back of them. Not only that,
but they ere ready to name a gov
eminent before disorder had time
to take advantage Of the democrat
lied conditions which usually go
with revolution.
History contains few cases in
which such a complete change was
brought about with such little dis
turbance. Argentinians have
right to feel proud of their achieve
ment, while the rest of the world
is justified in accepting their new
government with confidence.

many cases be responsible for
chronic infections that keep the
constitution subnormal and which
therefore interfere with attention,
interest and ambition.
Indeed, by all the rules of ex-
perience, many children who are
put into the schools for the usual
teaching will be so subnormal men
tally that they can not possibly
keep up with the average of the
class. AS a result of their difficult
ties they will develop mental atti-
tudes leading toward degeneracy
and anti-Social conduct.
Such considerations as have been
presented have, more than any
other consideration, prompte d

that every child have a physical
examination to secure a health
rating and to be made as physically
fit as possible sbefore school begins.

OPPOSING Forces
PROFESSOR BRIDGMAN's p


Il adoXical experiments can be I'M
derstood, if we reflect for a moment
upon the nature of solids, liquids
and gases and the meaning of boil
ing and freezing.
All substances are composed OF
minute particles called molecules
These. particles are continuously
subjected to two forces.
One is the force of their own Vi
bratinp mr. motion This force teuds
to separate them and drive them
away from each other The other
force is the electromagnetic attrac-
ton which exists between molecules
This force tends to draw them to-
gether.
Whether a substance exists as a
gas, liquid or solid depends upon
which force has the upper hand.
In a gas, the vibration or motion
so overbalances the attractive force
that all the molecules are continu-
ously flying about in all directions.
There is no cohesion between mole
cules at all.
In liquid the two forces are
more nearly equal. The attractive
force is strong enough to draw
molecules together, but almost i'm
mediately the force of vibration
causes them TO separate.
The molecular condition of a
liquid, therefore, might be likened
to a dance in which the dancers
conspicuously are changing part
ners-a sort of super-circle two
step.
In a solid, the force of attraction
or cohesion has the upper hand and
the molecules are bolted into place.
They are still in vibration, but
their motions are confined to lin
tied area-like chained dogs which
run back and forth within the linn
its of their leashes.

goods not only will regain our ex-
ports, but will result in a greater
consumption here at horne, espe-
cially by farmers.
Evans Woollen may well add to
his "Catalog Of Follies, Past and
Present" the folly Of attempting to
hold wages to the present high level
and also the folly of attempting to
keep manufacturers profits at the
level that prevailed from the close
Of the war until one year ago.

Energy Content

WHETHER a substance exists
w as a gas, liquid. or solid at
ordinary temperatures and pressures
depends upon how strong the two
opposing forces are under those con-
ditions.
Oxygen is a gas under ordinary
conditions because the force of mo-
ton has the upper hand. Water is
liquid because the two forces are
then about equal. Iron is solid
because the force of cohesion is the
stronger.
Temperature is really a measure
of molecular vibration. When we
heat an object we give energy to its
molecules and thus increase the
rate of vibration. That is why iron
turns to a liquid if it is heated
enough.
When we cool an object we take
energy away from it. That is why
water freezes or turns to solid.
AS we take energy away from the
molecules, their rate of vibration
becomes so slow that the force of
cohesion gains the ascendency.
AS a result, the molecules are
chained to their positions and the
liquid, water, becomes a solid, ice.
To melt the ice, we must give
back energy to the molecules until
their force Of vibration is sufficient
ly strong to overcome the cohesive
force.
What Professor Bridgman does as
to subject the ice to tremendous
pressure. This aids the cohesive
force and pushes the molecules
closer together than they normally
exist.
Now when heat is applied, the
molecules do not get enough energy
to break their chains. Consequently
the ice remains a solid, though il
is heated almost to the ordinary
!. -

Just an Alley Mud Fight

1t would be happier thought if
there were less personality and more

But somehow the performance

women in a back alley.
Such questions as whether Louis
lana can stomach Huey P. Long, or
whether Michigan should turn down
Senator Couzens because he has not
always been regular from the Re-
publican viewpoint, serve no pur-
pose so distinctly as to obliterate
constructive discussion. +.

me pity that his chance has been
