Many, DID, with creaking joints,
will ask, "H0w many teachers of
Latin and Greek, Sanskrit and
higher mathematics, how many
preachers of the gospel, would
have to die to attract half as much
attention as Knute Rockne now at
tracts, because he was the best
teacher of football?
Mothers, nurses, read and re-
member.
Doctor Jackson, whose speciality
is removing foreign bodies from
human air and food passages, says
babies swallow pins because their
mothers set the example.
When changing the baby, a moth
er holds safety pins In her mouth.
The baby, learning by imitation, as
all young animals must, puts safe
ty pins in its mouth.
Don't hold pins in your mouth In
the presence of babies or young
children.
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., prob
ably without knowing it, has di-
unfinished temporarily the income
that grafters get from speakeasies.
Having bought several blocks in
the heart of New York, he is tear
ing down old, abandoned resi-
dences, eyicting speakeasies, as
the farmer evicts rats when he
tears down an old barn.
Many blocks in the heart of New
York offer refuge to bootleggers.
Thirsty customers go through
the basement doors under old-fash-
Toned stone steps.
On rainy days little boys with
umbrellas stand waiting to escort
customers from their automobiles
to the entrance, collecting tips.
Mr.. Hoover says the wage scale
must be maintained, and it must,
unless we want to shoot prosperity
to pieces entirely. 1t should be re-
membered, however, that the value
OF wages depends on the cost of liv-
ing.
Prof Carl Stejskal of Vienna
discovers a food paste that can be
rubbed into the skin, keeping a man
alive indefinitely without swallow
ing food.
OF the new food, called "dinu.
tron," six ounces, rubbed into the
skin, is enough for one day, And
you can take bath thirty minutes
after the rubbing without losing its
nourishing effects.
This will discourage hunger
strikes in prisons, make possible
the feeding of insane patients who
refuse to eat, and will be of great
value In certain surgical operations,
when food cannot be administered.
1t is believed that dinutron will
also be highly valuable in treatment
of diabetic cases.
Earl Musselman, twenty-five, stu
dent at the Pennsylvania Institute
for the Blind, and blind from birth,
can now see, thanks to surgery, and
has taken his first look at the
world.
Bright flowers delight him and he
finds intense pleasure In studying |
faces of companions whom he knew
only by their voices
The young man says: II won't
have to guess at things any more"
Perhaps we shall say that when
we awake on the other side Of the
grave and our eyes are opened.
Let us hope so. This period of
worry would hardly be worth while
If 1t were all.
Two convicts confessed that they
started fire that killed 800 prison
ers in the Ohio penitentiary a year
ago. They wanted to keep the
warden from building a new cell
block for fellow prisoners, because
they didn't want to work on 1t.
They may be convicted of MUIR
der in the first degree, and, In the
language Of the criminals, they may
''burn" in the electric chair. In
prison or out, the safety Of many
often depends on the moral char
lcter OF one or two.
Good news from Florida tells of
The final and complete disappear
lnce Of the Florida fruit fly, which
fOr awhile threatened the states
citrus crops.
The national quarantine has been
o6 since a year ago last November.
President Hoover, back from the
Virgin Islands, finds what looks
like deficit Of $70O,0O0,0OO, due
