A GREAT PUBLISHER DIES

Cyrus H. K. Curtis of Philadelphia,
who started his business career at the age
of IL with three cents of capital as a street
newsboy, and became one of the world s
greatest publishers, died a few days ago
at the age of SO.
Born in Portland Me-, in 1850, Mr.
Curtis received only a common school ed
ucation. His first publishing venture was
launched in Philadelphia at the age of &c,
when he became publisher of small peri
odical called the Tribune and Farmer.
Later he established Ladies' Home Jour
nal, and afterwards became head of the
great Curtis Publishing Company, whose
magazines include Saturday Evening Post,
The Country Gentleman and Ladies' Home
Journal
He purchased the Philadelphia Pub
lie Ledger in 1913, and the New York
Evening Post in 1928, and was the active
head of all these important publications
until he was stricken with heart disease
about year before his death.
He was widely known as a philan-
thropist, although his benefactions were
bestowed without ostentation His only
daughter became the wife of the late
famed editor, Edward Box, who was as
ISOLATED with Mr.. Curtis for many years
Few men who started to make their
way with limited education and no capital
ever have travelled farther than Cyrus Her
mann KotZschmar Curtis.

USEFUL EDUCATION

Those who criticize the cost of educa-
ton in this country almost always direct
their charges against the money spent for
what they call frills and unnecessary ex-
.tras.
No one anywhere raises criticism
against the cost of giving our young peo-
pie sound training in fundamentals, but
it seems easy for educators in many cases
to get away from the essential and to
waste at least part of their pupils time
on unnecessary or profitless subjects.
1t is interesting consequently to hear
from Madison, Wis, that model house is
under construction there, sponsored by the
public schools home economics depart
ment. The instructor and the students in
one high school planned the furnishings of
the living-dining room. Other students
were held responsible for planning and
purchasing the furnishings of the kitchen
and laundry.
For these two rooms the expense was
limited to 5000. AS showing how sensibly
the pupils did their buying, it is reported
that household washing machine was the
one large piece of electrical equipment al
lowed in the budget for the entire house
The students explained that this was
chosen in preference to any other large
equipment because they felt that the
housewife could make her greatest savings
in home operation by doing the washing in
the house and with machinery.
Practical training such as these Madi-
son students are being given, and such as
many individuals do not receive until they
are pitched into the midst of household re-
sponsibilities, is the kind of education that
every thoughtful taxpayer will approve

Yesterday, June ID was Flag Day The
original Flag day was June Ia, 1777, when
the act establishing the flag of the United
States was passed by congress- June IA,
1851, at Hartford, Conn, was the first
time Flag day was observed as such. June
Ia, 1877, the Tooth anniversary Of the or
iginal. act TO congress which established
the United States flag, is spoken of as the
first official recognition of Flag day. 1t
has never been officially established by an

CLASSIFYING MOTORISTS

Among the measures designed to re-
duce automobile accidents, a new Connec-
ticut law will be watched with interest 1t
provides different insurance rates for var
ious classes of motorists
Those whose driving records indicate
them to be especially competent and care
full are granted a reduction from the reg
ular insurance rates; the next class pay
the standard insurance fee: those found
to have been involved in minor accidents
and slight violations of traffic rules must
pay premium of 10 per cent; those who
have had serious accidents are penalized
% per cent, while those who are shown to
have been at fault in highly serious and
flagrantly avoidable accidents must pay
an additional premium of so per cent for
their insurance.
The new law has not been in effect
long enough to enable one to Judge of its
results, but it seems to be based upon sound
principles and may prove to be of some
measurable benefit in reducing automo-
bile accidents,

Washington comment.

washington comment which rises
above the status of mere rumor, has it that
Mr.. Woodin, present secretary of the treas
ury, will accept the ambassadorship to
Berlin. This disposition of him will be
generally commended 1t is compliment
to the integrity which the country believes
Mr.. Woodin possesses. but at the same time
it removes him from an administrative po-
sition which must now make war upon the
ethlealideas of yesterday which made Mr..
Woodin's conduct seem proper enough at
the time.

But they should also be planned
with an eye towards the fact that
they are intended to build us up for
the next years work. Too often
people work so hard having a good
time that they come home all played
out, needing the rest they should have
had on their vacation.
Even worse is the idea that we
must forget everything but fun and
pleasure. Of course banishing bust
ness worries and spending your
vacation in the proper mental atti-
tude are among the first essentials to
getting the most out of your holidays.
But it is also wise to use little
forethought to prevent the accidents
and illnesses that can so easily spoil a
vacation and turn a good time into
q tragedy.
Change and Moderation
In planning your vacation, remem-
Der that in many respects ga change
is as good as a rest" Don't spend
your holidays like the sailor who went
boating, or the mail-carrier who took
long walk. If possible, do just the
opposite from your usual round Of
activities.
For example, if your occupation 10
sedentary one demanding great
expenditure of mental energy, plan o
vacation of mild physical activity
free from all strain. Golf, tennis,
swimming, baseball, hiking, and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS moderation
are suggested. Don't begin too
vigorously. Exercise should leave
feeling of pleasant fatigue, rather
than exhaustion, which is dangerous
to health.
