ST. LOUIS. Oct. 81 Q.N.S0 .
Women's fashions today are
more consistent with good health
and comeliness than they have
been in the last century.
The reform which has taken
place in women's dress has done
as much as anything else to
promote more normal develop
ment of their minds and bodies.
Grows in Beauty
Becoming less cumbersome and
more practical, women's dress is
decidedly more sensible, and is
becoming more beautiful as well.
The less cumbersome weight
of womens clothing, permitting
greater contact with health-giv-
ing sunlight, constitutes one of
the greatest advances in femi-
nine fashion.
Over-dreSSing is more reSpon-
eible for the contraction OF
troublesome common colds than
Is scanty clothing.
Perhaps the ultimate will have
been achieved when women make
1t the fashion to insist that the
newest thing in good form is
to submit, at least every year
or six months. to a physical
health examination by a scien-
tific doctor.
Can Lead the Way
If women throughout the land
would constitute themselves in
groups of 400 to form a league
of wholesome living, the purpose
of which would be to make it
the fashion among men, women
and children to have their half
yearly health audit, they would
be making a tremendous con-
tribution to future generations.

Keep These Profits

Every day the public is realizing
the exhorbitant projects made by the
utility companies.
Encouragement of public ownership
is desired. The profits can go along
way toward keeping taxes down.
Lawrence f. Orr, Of the Indiana
Board of Accounts, calls attention to
the profits returned to municipal utll-
tiles in these words:
sIn 1880, the public-owned utilities
in Indiana earned enough after pay
ing all expenses of operating, setting
aside depreciation funds and moneys
for bond issues to have surplus of
approximately S4,000,000 which was
paid into the general funds of the mu-
inequalities, thereby aiding in provid-
ing moneys other than property tax
for municipal administration.
Sin one city, the municipality was
enabled to build city hall from the
surplus utility funds. In another city
the surplus funds from the municipal
ly-owned light plant were turned into
the general fand, and no tax levy was
necessary for that fund.
81 am citing these instances merely
to show the profits made by properly
managed municipal utilities. In an,
other city, our examinations showed
the city to be realizing a profit from
! its water plant and prevented sale
of same to a private utility.
"There should be legislation that
will permit city to purchase a pri
vate utility plant upon proper ap
praisement, and the law should pro
vide that all franchises granted shoult
carry a provision granting the munich
pality the right Of purchase"

PUPILS EXPERIMENT
WITH WHITE RATS

If white rats would keep well, have
amiable dispositions and possess
creamy sleek coats, they should eat
balanced meals, just as human beings
ought to do. ass'f~%esfs4
This is the conclusion reached by
pupils in the elementary school at
Westerville, the biology class of the
Bexley high school, Bexley, and the
elementary class at the Immaculate
Conception School, Columbus. who
have been experimenting with white
| rats furnished by the Ohio State uni
versity.
That milk was the all-important fea-
/ ture of the diet was shown when some
Of the rats were given milk and 9TH
! ers milk, the remainder of the meal
being the same. Rats given water
gained very little in weight, develop.
ed colds and sore eyes, began tc
sneeze and seemed not to give darr
whether school kept or not.
Those fed milk with their meal:
grew rapidly and uniformly, developed
strong bones and muscle, donnet
glossy, sleek coats and became i'm
mune to colds and eye diseases.
1t is said that some of the pupils il
one of the classes were much affected
when one Of the rats died. He hat
been started off on the water diet, and
deprived of the proper minerals AM
vitamins, which are found in milk
sickened, turned up his toes and pass
ed out. His resistance to colds ha
become so low that even milk and CO..
liver oil could not save him.
The children found that white rat
make ideal pets-that they are ami
able, playful and easily handled, pro
vided they are given their daily ratio
of milk.

meat prices are lower today than they
