Every Day Religion
BY DR.. JOSEPH FORT NEWTON :

A FTER a while we got tired of
L n waiting and we decided to
stir up some fun on the street.
There the cops chased us and we
found places to hide. We'd have
meetings and make believe we
were hiding from brass buttons,
and so we'd make up lots. We'd
rob that person, or maybe kill an
other.
Cali imaginary, of course. But
we got a kick out of it. Well, one
day some one dared us to do real
job. We done it and got away all
right. After that it was easy.
What did we do with the money?
Well, there were craps games, and
the poolroom back of the speak
easy.
"It was all fun while it lasted"
said Shorty, ruefully. Then he
added, after a little hesitation,
But it didn't last very long. They
pinched us and we got soaked"
He makes some of the rest of us
think hard and fast, wondering
why a school yard should have an
iron fence, and why there were no
more Fairgrounds to be had.
1t is not enough to shut up pool
rooms and speakeasies; we must
open Fairgrounds, and give our
boys a helpful hand. To break up
a gang on one street corner means
only that it will form again on
another corner, or in a back alley.

DEMOCRATIC REPEAL

Speaker John N. Garner is being blamed by some
vets for his apparent retreat from the demand for
a house vote the opening day of congress on proh-
btion repeal. We prefer to reserve Judgment.
The test is not whether there is action the first
day, or the first month"; for that matter but that
the which does pass shall be an honest re-
peal resolution unencumbered by dry okers 1t would
be far better to wait for outright measure than
compromise on half -wet-dry monstrosity to force
action quickly
What the best legislative strategy may be we do not
profess to know. Like the average voter we are in
terested in the result. 1t is up to Garner and his
Democratic colleagues to produce the pledged result
Meanwhile, experienced paramentarians they de-

procedure.

unless it is co-ordnated with proper senate action
What if anything is the Democratic leadership doing
along this line?
The Hoover dry forces have the support of not
few southern Democrats in trying to emascuate the
repeal resolution in at least three different ways:
l. To provide long unlimited period in which
the states may ray, thus giving opportunity for dry
obstruction and political deals in the states to pre-
vent ratification.

THE OTHER ANSWER

When private charity fails to respond to the needs
of the hour the only other way is supplying work
through public funds.
The response to appeals for funds for the relief Of
the needy suggests that the private purses of those
who are rated as owners are not as well filled they
might be.
Unemployment which beggars the worker, also
burdens the employing class and will soon bankrupt
1t. Idle men are Improbable.
Idleness hits not only at the man who is jobess
but at every interest of the community The huge
fact presses that our social industrial and financial
organizations are formed for workers, not drones,
and break down when large numbers withdrawn
from work.
Borrowing money from the federal govern
ment for the immediate needs of those without work
only postpones the evil day 1t is not solution. 1t
may not even be sufficient for needs.
But borrowing funds to put men to work on enter
prises that will return something in the way of profit
or at least of liquidation is a different matter
This city could use the labor of the thousands who
are now out of work 1t could use it in replacing
Stun districts with homes of comfortable character.
1t could use that labor in reducing fire hazards and
thus lift insurance burdens 1t could use labor in
a way to develop better living conditions.
The problem of unemployment must reduce itself
to finding work for the voorhees,. If work can be
found by private industry, tie problem is solved.
But this winter in Indianapolis the solution will
probably be found in the launching of some project
for which funds may be borrowed from the federal
government and which will put to work large num-
bers of men.
What is your suggestion as to the most important
project which can accomplish two things-give work,
and secondly return a service to the community that
will be worth the money?

IN suffering in the advanced
stages of diphtheria and who
then has seen the marvellous eff
fects of a suitable dose of anti
toxin given early in the disease
can fail to appreciate what ire

has been for mankind.
In a recent novel called "The
Marriage of Simon Harper" by
Neil Bell, appears an account of
a diphtheria epidemic in small
town in England in the period
just preceding the discovery Of
diphtheria antitoxin.
The author depicts graphically
the child who is infected severely

The condition begins with a
sore throat and with repeated at

that forms in the throat, by spit

In 1888, shortly after Pasteur
had announced his discovery of
the germ causation of disease,
Klebs and Loffler isolated the
germs that cause diphtheria.
These germs are known as diph-
iberia bacilli. They are found in
the membrane which appears in
the throat of a person infected
with diphtheria. .
To determine whether infec-
ton is present, the physician
takes a smear from the throat
and sends it to the health de-
partment, which then studies the
germs to see if they are the germs
Of diphtheria.

merely the introduction into the
