Your Health
Proper
Diet
By Logan CIendening, NJ. D.

Sixteen pupils collapsed to-
day in the - school due. their
instructors said, to entering a
warm room after competitive
exercises, in preparation for
field day"-So went news
story a year or so ago.
That school ventilation has
greatly improved is largely due
to the example of the open-air
school. The students who were
considered proper subjects for
open-air school rooms did so
much better work. improved so
much in health, that teachers
began to wonder whether the
morale of all classes would not
be helped by having more fresh
air in the school room.
The story is told of a pupil in
an open-air room who had a
great friend. Their separation
when one was removed to the
great outdoors was hard to en-
dure. So they went to the
school doctor and asked: Doc
tor, how sick does fellow have
to be to get in the fresh-alr
School?"
Such incidents set teachers to
thinking. If fresh air is so good
for youngsters who are under
par, why wouldn't it be proper,
tionately good for healthy ones?
The result has been that the
ventilation of school rooms has
undergone a complete change.
Much of the credit for i'm.
proved School-room ventilation
should go to William E. Watt.
who was principal of the Ores
ham School in Chicago. In 1909
he became interested in better
school-room ventilation. His oo-
servationS taught him that the
sick children in the fresh-air
school we're more alert, less reS.~
less and droopy than the well
children indoors.

CHAPTER V
Fightin' Jim Fitzpatrick had
four loves in his life. Beneath
his rugged exterior beat stout
and sentimental heart. For 20
years he had been welded to
his wife and to his lob. He
had been true to both. And
the day he donned his rookie
uniform he led Mary to the
altar. She was as proud OF
him as flat-foot as she was
as a captain.
Then there was little Michael,

set in his father. And Fitz he
would not have swapped his
boy for a throne.
Ed, his younger brother, was
like a son to him, too. Ten
years older, Jim had educated
him, guided him, fought for
him and placed him on the
police force, where he had be-
come q sergeant. Eds caretree,
unconventional way was the
source of constant worry to the
man who had disciplined his
own character with the temper
of hardest steel. And like steel
he was flexible and bending to
Eds youthful frolics and follles.
But he watched him with a
wary and fatherly eye.
On the Sunday morning, two
days after the Belmonte flasco,
Fitz was in the bathroom shaw
ing, when his brother Ed, at

and undershirt, his hair dis
heveled and his eyes bloodshot,

Ed shrugged indifferently.

WOMAN FEELS AKIN
| TO MRS. L|NDBERGH
Mourns Daughter, Kidnapped
Nearly Four Years Ago
in New York.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. March 7.-Mrs. Della
Budd. who hasn't known happiness in
almost four years, feels akin to Mrs.
Anne Lindbergh. But she hopes that
the kidnapers of the Lindbergh baby
will show its mother more mercy than
was vouchsafed to her.
On June 3. 1928. Mrs. Budd's 10
year-oId daughter Grace dropped the
childish game she was playing on the
sidewalk before her West Fifteenth
street home and skipped off with a
fatherly man who promised to take
her to a birthday party, where there
would be lots of frosted cake.
Clamor and search reached to many
parts of the country, netting finally
two men, but they were released after
accusations against them proved mis-
taken. Today the mystery remains as
deep as ever.
The events that brought sorrow to
the Budd household started when one
of the SONS, Edward. advertised for a
farm job TO add to the family income.
| The father, Albert. was finding it diff
ficult to make ends meet on his wages
as porter in an Office building
At the Budd door. in answer to the
ad appeared a kindly looking gentle
man farmer" who said he was Frank
Howard and that he had a place at
tionS for a job for Edward were
started. A few days later the stranger
came again - and walked off with
Grace to attend a party he said he
was giving for his sister.
Three little girls said they saw the
two enter blue sedan with Pennsyl-
vania license plates. Every police de-
partment in the United States and
Canada was enlisted in the hunt The
parents got post card, almost unread
able, which said:
My dear friends: All litter girl is to
cellar and into water. Mr.. Burt"
Then, while the parents were still
trembling over the ominous import of
this, came another.
Mrs Budd your child is going to
funeral. I still got her Howard"
Other notes came; street peddler
was found who remembered selling a
pot Of cheese to the man calling him
self Howard. But never any clue that
led to results
In 1880, Charles Edward Pope. ell
derly caretaker in an apartment house.
was indicted on charge of kidnapping
after Mrs. Budd had looked at him in a
lineup and said he was the man. Later
the parents and three other witnesses
failed to identify him in court and he
wasordered acquitted by a judge.
Another suspect, who, police said,
was known as Albert Edward Corthell,
or Frank Howard, was brought here
from st. Louis, but was cleared and
freed.
So today Mrs. Budd does not know
whether her fluffy-haired daughter is
dead or alive.

"I think the boy will be returned. "
Mrs. Diamond explained, but I don't

and Bitz, though. They used to run

That kidnapping was the work of
professionals. 1t was too smooth to
have been done by amateurs. The kid
napers probably will wait until the eX-
citement blows over a little and then
get in touch with Col Lindbergh. If
you ask me, all they want is coin of
the realm. They won't harm the child.
Mrs. Diamond expressed sympathy
for the parents of the missing child.
Il know just how they feel" she
said. You see, l have three little
nieces. Jack used to support them.
Now that he's gone, provide for them.

still is somewhere in the East?" a re-
porter inquired.

turned?"
