poSal which calls for O decision that
"in view Of the approaching meeting
Of q conference on the codification Of
international law, the question of the
nationality of women should be fur
ther discussed" 1t Is indeed a straw.
It Is hardly controversial. It contains
no possibility Of entering upon those
arguments which must arise between
countries which, In possession of indi-
vidual regulations, are called upon to
abandon pet theories and come into
countries. It simply asks for re-diS-
cussion at a future codification confer
ence whenever and wherever that may
be-
But the women have seized upon the
opportunity From the United States
there has come to Geneva q group Of
people, members of the Inter- american
Commission Of Women, that offshoot
of the Pan-American Union which was
formed some two years ago to examine
the status Of the women of Latin
America and to report back in the
course Of five years.
Committee Members Besieged.
They are under the leadership Of
Miss Alice Paul, and they have at
tracted to their cause women from
countries all over the world who, for
getting the barriers of language and
custom, have thrown themselves with
enthusiasm into the work of seeing that
no single member of the First Commit
tee shall go in ignorance of the i'm
portance of Docteur Ferrara's proposal.
Besides the women from America,
Miss Ella Regal of Pennsylvania, the
legislative chairman of the National
Women's party; Sonora Marta Vegara
of Santiago, Chill, member Of the ma
tionality committee of the Inter-Ameri-
can Commission of Women; Miss Mar
garet Whittemore, Mrs. Emily Smith,
Miss Lucy Branham, Miss Harriet Hop
kinson and others. there are British
women and Australian women; women
from France, Austria, Holland Port0-
gal, Rumania, Switzerland, Hungary,
Lithuania, Estania and Bessarabia;
from the Scandinavian countries and
the republics of South America, all
eagerly ready to interview in person,
and In almost any language, those men
who will carry influence when the dis
cussion Of their claims arises in COM
mittee, Is 1t may do any day now.
OF the 80 or so delegates already
interviewed, nearly every one has been
found strongly sympathetic and ready
to support the proposal for the reopen
ing OF discussion. The matter Is SInail,
they agree, simply rediscuSsion.
But the women see further. They
see that the introduction into interna-
tional law of a standard Of rights in
ferior to that which, in certain parts OF
the world, Is already in practice-since
five perfect countries" now operate
upon q basis Of equality In regard to
nationality-would result in enlight-
ened states being forced either to re-
treat to the level Of backward regula-
tions or stand outside international
legislation altogether.
They see, too, that the establishment
in international law Of O principle
which, because unjust to certain mem
bers of the community, would never be
carried out in international practice,
would open the possibility to the abuse
OF the very thing which is now strug-
Cling into existence with so much diff
ficulty In response to the needs of the
modern world. A straw may tell which

A wise man Of an earlier
day was q Pharisee named
Gamaliel. When the first perse-

he protested.
Refrain from these men

counsel or this work be of men,
it will come naught. But If 1t
be of God, We cannot over
throw it, lest haply We be found

If the Pharisees had taken

agitator is harmless unless you
try to suppress him. Only then
does he become a menace. She
sets aside one end of Hyde
Park for the exclusive use of
the agitatorS. There, every
afternoon, and especially on
Sundays, they meet and shoot
off their faces against the gov
eminent, the church, and
whatever else they dislike.

1T was once my privilege to
L witness the establishment of
a new religion.
The founder was John Alex
ander Dowie, who first ap-
peared in the Chicago news
papers as an obscure eXhorter
with a talent for strong Ian
guage. Though he went through
the city and suburbs holding
outdoor meetings, he attracted
comparatively little attention
until one night a hoodlum hit
him in the eye with q rotten
egg.
At once he assumed a new
character and Importance. In
stead of being merely a sensa-
tional denouncer he became an
incipient martyr-a prophet

his own city, and finally pro-
claimed himself the reincarna-

He had undoubted talent. but
it was the stupidity Of his OPP

into success.

1t Is not difficult to understand the
i'll effects Of such an exhibition Of I'M
fairness and ridicule of o race which
occupies today the most promising re-
gion of the earth. It is but natural that
1t should arouse resentment among the
Latin Americans against the North
Americans, and particularly against
their film industry.
That the American movie producers
had overlooked this result or that they
had minimized its Importance Is what
remains beyond my comprehension.

Former Garrett COuntain To
Visit Europe This Summer

Harland I. Casteel, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. N. H. Casteel, New Salem, Pa,
will visit the British Isles and France
during the coming summer. He will
be accompanied by Mr.. Robert S.
Stein, of Greensburg, Pa, who is now
senior at the Presbyterian Theo-
logical Seminary, Chicago, ILL.,, and for
two, years was roommate of Cas-
teels at Waynesburg College. They
will sail from New York to Glasgow,
Scotland, July 10, on steamer Gamer
onia, and will return sometime in
September.
Young Casteel has made>a cororful
record since his start in High school.
He graduated from Redstone Town
ship High school in '25; was salutator-
ian Of his class and completed the pre-
scribed four year course in three
years. Immediately upon his gradua-
ton he entered Waynesburg College,
Waynesburg, Pa, from which he grad
uated with high honors in '29. While
there he probably held more important
student offices than any other student
in the history Of the college. During
his senior year he was president of
the student body and president of
the student council, the highest under
graduate offices in the school. He par
ticipated in SO inter collegiate debates,
a college record and probably a state
record. For two years he was cap
tain of one of the greatest debating
teams in the East and had the unique
experience of twice meeting debating
teams representing Oxford University,
Oxford, England, and on each occas-
ion emerged victorious.
Casteel is now student at the Law
school of the University of Pittsburgh,
and during the past year he not only
did excellent work in Law school but
taught ten and one-half hours per
week in the history department, of
Schenley High Night school, Pitts
burgh, Pa.
He is member of three national
fraternities: Delta Sigma Phi, social;
Tau Kappa Alpha, honorary forensic;
Phi Alpha Delta, Legal.
He is a grandson of Truman w.
Casteel, of near Oakland.

Health Department Notes

Fourteen school children who have
very defective vision were taken to
Cumberland and fitted with glasses.
These children came from the follow
ing communities: Oakland 2, Deer
Park 1, Swanton 1, Accident l, Elder
Hill 1, Friendsville 2, Jennings 3,
Manadier 1, Grantsville 1. The eye
specialist said that this was group
of the worst cases that he had ever
examined, and that several of these
children had never known what it was
to really see until they were fitted
with glasses. The glasses were paid
for by the local Red Cross.
Twelve girls from the Accident
High school satisfactorily completed
the course in "Home Hygiene and
Care of the Sick" Those receiving
certificates were: Pauline Beachy,
Ruth Harvey, Delma Felix, Rosalie
Richter, Martha Beachy, Myrtle Col
flesh, Isabel Glotfelty, Evelyn Will

The letter follows:
Dear Legionaires, one and all:

the lbaby's food.
Let the baby gradually get accus-
toned to, sun baths. But remember
your own experiences with sunburn
and safeguard the baby accordingly.
The baby's skin is much more tender
than yours. Give the sun baths in
very small doses at first, for only a
few minutes at time, once or twice
a day, until the baby gets used to
them. Always protect the babyIs
head and eyes from the glare of the
sun. Never take the baby out in the,
full heat of the midday sun. o'.saf
Very carefully protect the. baby
from his insect enemies, flies and mos
quitoes, particularly. Screen the
kitchen and sleeping rooms against
these pests. Spread a mosquito net
over the baby's bed or carriage when
the baby takes anap out Of doors. q
See that the baby has plenty of
sleep and rest. Don't let visitors
handle him. He is not toy.
Take the well baby regularly to
your doctor for advice and general
medical supervision. Send fer your
doctor without delay if the baby shows
any indication of diarrheal dis
turbance. r. III

MUST SAFEGUARD BABY'S
HEALTH DURING SUMMER
Heath Department Suggests
Ways of Keeping Child Healthy

Some of the ways by which baby's
health may be safeguarded and. the
baby kept comfortable during the try
ing heat of midsummer, are outlined
by DR.. R. H. Riley, Director of the
State Department of Health, as fol-
lows: Dress the baby according to the
weather. The less a baby wears in
hot weather, the better. But sharp
changes of temperature are likely to
come, so be sure you have light blan-
ket or dress conveniently at hand, to
slip on if needed.
See that the baby gets its mothers
milk, if possible. No food is compare
BILE to it. A baby should not be weaned
during the summer, if it is possible to
feed it on mothers milk.
The best substitute for mothers
milk is clean cows milk, diluted with
water, according to the doctors di-
rections for the individual baby. The
mixture should be boiled for two or
three minutes and then cooled before
feeding the baby. It is impossible to
prevent germs from entering cows
milk even when it is produced under
the most favorable sanitary con-
ditions.
Keep all milk clean, cool, and
covered.
Give the baby cooled, boiled water
to drink.
Always wash the hands thoroughly
