 sIf we had sufficiently detailed observations at number of places in the polar regions, we would be
 enabled to predict weather in a general way further in advance. The United States Weather Bu- reau does not attempt to forecast weather longer than one week ahead. The possibility of this pre- diction is due chiefly to the avail ability of weather observations from Alaska and the Boring Sea. With observations from Siberia, the range of prediction might be even further forecast"

CHACO PROBLEM GAVE LEAGUE
 BAD DREAMS
Bolivia and Paraguay Are Found Difficult to Handle
By STEWART BROWN United Press Stan Correspondent,

United Press Stan COrrcspOndent)
 Geneva (UP)-The United States by persuading the Neutral Chaco commission in Washington to with draw from peace negotiations be- tween Bolivia and Paraguay, has placed on the doorsteps of the League a problem which is caus- ing worry.
 Officials are finding 1t extremely difficult to get Bolivia and Para quay even to agree on an approach to settlement.
 After weeks the League got both parties consent to the dis patch of commission to the sence. The commission has been empowered to:
 one. Negotiate, if possible. any arrangement calculated to pro- mote the execution of the obliga- tion to cease hostilities;
 Two. To prepare an agreement for arbitration. Once the matters to be arbitrated are settled, the League will decide what impartial body will delimit the frontier be- tween Bolivia and Paraguay;
 Three. At the Councils request the commission can make an in. quiry into all circumstances and responsibilities for the dispute. In certain quarters the League was strongly criticized for not in sisting upon a cessation of hos tilities before any other matter wal discussed. Bolivia, however, refus. ed to halti fighting until an ac. cord on arbitration had been sign. ed. Paraguay, on the other hand insisted upon ending hostilities be. fore negotiating an arbitral agree. ment.
 Faced with these opposing theses, the Leagues Chaco com. mittee finally effected a compro. mise whereby Bolivia and Para. quay agreed to start negotiation. in Geneva for an agreement or arbitration while the commission wa sen route to Chaco, where it 1. expected to arrive this month.

 "Two-To postpone choice of a profession, or vocation, until this foundation laying is complete.
 "Three-To bring to light and to remedy any points of deficiency where. because of one difficulty or another his high school training dod not thoroughly ground him."

 The observation of weather in high northerly attitudes has al- ready aided in extending the range of advance forecasting in the United tSates and other North Temperate countries, and similarly a better understanding of Antarc- tic weather would assist future forecasting in such South Temper ate countries as Argentina, Chile,
 Australia and South Africa. Economic Necessity The vast agricultural interests of these southern lands make scient- tific weather forecasting of pre- dominant economic importance to
 them, a fact especially appreciated in Argentina, which already has
 availed itself of observations from
 stations in South Georgia and the South Orkney Islands.

Some Good In Mosquito

The mosquito is not the unmitigat-
ed pest that it is usually thought to
be, according to DIR. Bruce Nayne of
the United States health service, but
is valuable curative agent in
paresis, or paralysis of the brain.
The public health service now
maintains a mosquito depot at Co
lumbia, s.. c., where the lowly in
sect is permitted to bite malaria pa
tents. Since malaria germs coun-
teract the effects of paresis, the in
fected mosquitoes are shipped to dis
tant points of the country as re-
quired. Surrounded by ice and kept
at temperature of from AZ to 80
degrees, they remain inactive until
warmed up in the laboratory.-Path-

Special Day for
Youth of Church
Children's Festival Second
Sunday in June.

The custom of celebrating Chill
dren's day in the Protestant churches
throughout the country began in the
early part of the Nineteenth century.
1t had its origin in the May day and
Whitsuntide festivals, its resem-
blance to the former being shown
by the abundant use of floral deco
rations.
May day, as secular festival, has
for centuries been the especial de-
light of children. Whitsunday, which
occurs some time in May or June
1t being one of the movable feasts,
coming so days after Easter Sunday
was. during the Middle ages, one
of the fayorite holidays of the
church. II was signalized by pro-
cessions and by the performance of
mysteries or plays founded upon
scripture occurrences.
This festivals connection with chill
dren, however, came from the Gus
tom adopted by both the Roman and
Lutheran churches in Europe, of hold
ing their confirmation service on this
day, and it is no unusual sight In q
European city TO see whole troops
of children, from six to ten years of
age, dressed in white and garlanded
with flowers, going TO take part in
this service on Whitsunday. With
the Lutheran churches, at least,
special musical service and sermon,
adapted to the children. were also
part of the days ceremonies. Tie
appropriate connection of children
and flowers has led great number
of churches in our own land to give
up Sunday, during the season of
blossom, to services specially suited
to the comprehension of young chill
dren.
In this country the first denomina-
ton to act in representative ca
pacity to recommend and adopt Chill
dren's day was the Methodist Epis-
copal church, which in 1865 recon
mended Children's day as a part of
its plan to raise student loan fund.
At its general conference in 1863
this denomination designated the sec.
ond Sunday in June to be observed
as Children's day. The previous year
the Universalist general convention
recommended this day for the hap.
tism of children. Later the Baptists
as well as other denominations also
adopted this day for services devoted
to children.
