NOG worship in America is be-
~ coming as widespread as the
worship of the sacred COW in India, y
says an evangelist, who brought
much wrath upon his head when he
unceremoniously propelled from his
tabernacle a dog that was not con-
Quoting itself reverently during
services.
This rash act called forth once
again scores of tributes to the dog
and certainly proved that the
preachers point was well taken.
BY and large, men love dogs be-
cause they can dramatic themselves
as heroes and gods while doing so.
1t gives a person feeling of de-
light to know that even a dumb
brute regards him as the most or,
in fact. the only important being In
the universe.
And admirable as this affection
maybe, it is a sentimental emotion
that originates in egoism. In short
man would not love his dog so much
if he did not love himself more.
He wants attention and approval
and alteration above everything. His
dog can be counted upon to give
him these. The beast worships
without questioning his motives or

brooding about newspaper men =

Why are we newspaper men the
way we are? Why are we so tenn

Haywood, think it's because we
have a deep-Seated conviction of our
own inferiority. If we didn't, we'd
never become newspaper men.
After all, We never accomplish
anything. AS a tribe we are passive
lads. We're the BoSwells. We spend
our lives in the reflected glory of
the boys who have ability enough
to get things done.
"a newspaper man isn't capable of
taking any active part in shaping
events. He couldn't. MunSey's ghost
wouldn't let him.

fellows, heroes and scoundrels, and
chronicle their deeds and mis-
deeds as truthfully and accurately
as our ability, modified by the sacred
COWS of the owners Of our news
papers, will allow.
Once in while one of us breaks
loose, wangles a political Job with
Tammany and really accomplishes
something. Or he writes a book,
like Mencken. or a play, like STALL
ingS and Anderson.
Failing in escape, he gets his
compensation and sootheS his libido
by standing at speakeasy bars and
telling the bartender and whoever
else will listen how pally he is with
Tom Lamont or what he said to
Peggy Joyce or what Frank Roose-
welt said to him.
And there he stays until he gets
too old to be of any use. Then the
newspaper throws him out on the
end of his spine.

to insist on the floor of the house
that bottled beer could be sold for
10 cents a pint. There's only one
answer now to that claim and that's
why isn't it?"
Governor McNutt's opposition to
oraught beer, or at least what he
claimed was his reason for oppos-
ing 1t, was that draught beer would
make saloons of public dispensaries
Just Why drinking beer from a keg

to make a public place a saloon is
very debatable. 1t would be inter

lucidity.
At any rate, the Governor con-
victed himself of arrant insincerity
on the draught beer question when
he opposed an amendment that
would have permitted draught beer
for home consumption. Certainly,

Far Woodlands
BY MARGUERITE V. YOUNG

BY MARGUERITE V. YOUNG
There is a gallant hunter, who
Goes flashing forth at morning.
Oh, publish on the rocks and sky
And in the streams a warning
For he whom nothing small eludes
Is coming through the fields
To bag for Dinah's empty pots
What easy killing yields.
But neighbors peering from their
blinds
Behold a sorry sight.
When he, alas, how shamefully
Droops home from hunt each
night.
From woodlands far removed he
comes
With half-regretful words
mat he has stood all day and
watched
The bright, unfrightened birds.

The average layman is not
capable of passing a stomach tube.
He therefore, must, arrange to get
the stomach empty by some other
means.
One of the best ways to do this is
to have the person drink promptly
cupful of warm salt water and
then perhaps to provoke vomiting if
necessary merely by putting finger
down the throat.

by an acid of any kind, it is Gus

Quick Action Is Vital in Cases of Poisoning

LIVERY now and then newspapers
IL contain reports Of poisoning in
the household due to error, or some
times Intentionally. The substances
most used are drugs which
occasionally are found in family
medicine chests.
The average person seldom is
ready with the knowledge of what
to do in such emergency. The
fret thing to be done without any
delay is to remove as far as pos
sible any of the poison that still is
in the stomach.
A physician usually washes the
stomach by the use of a stomach
tube through which water is in
PRODUCED and by which it is re-
moved.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-04-19

or baking soda, to counterfeit the
effects of the acid.
In poisoning with carbolic acid OF
any of its derivatives, lime water is
better antidote than baking soda
Of the greatest Importance in re-
lationship to poisoning is the relief
of pain, the. treatment of heart
failure, and the maintenance OF
breathing.
A physician must, of course, be
called Immediately in every possible
case Of suspected poisoning, because
he is able to undertake measures
of treatment that are unknown tc
the average person.
Moreover, many Of these measures
can be administered only by a ply
sician.

Use the SaUitch

BY P. S. Thomas.
After reading daily papers for
years and seeing all the crimes
that are committed, 1 often Won
der there are SO few, when I see
the way children are brought up,
children who are not taught to
mind and, when told to do any
thing, do as they please.
I believe, as Dorothy Dix, in her
answer to a mother who believes
in freedom, that worse handicap
couldn't be put on your girl or boy
In fact, I believe we would have
plenty of room in our jails and
prisons if children were taught
law and order, not only in the
home, school and on the streets.
but in our churches and Sunday
schools.
also believe in the old hickory
switch literally applied when
needed. My viewpoint comes from
experience, because 1 have a large
family to show that 1 am right.

These explorers were so sure of find

wares for the Chinese trade and spe-

China, they explored the region and
traded their wares to the Indians for
furs, rich furs which they sold for
great prices in the capitals of Eur
ope. They pushed up the St. Lawr-
ence to Montreal, then missionaries
and fur traders made their way up
the Great Lakes; they planted the
Cross at Sault Sainte Marie, and
crossed Lake Superior going far into
the wilderness beyond. Between
1868 and 1860 two French courier
du bOis, Radisson and Grossellers,
penetrated as far west as the Missis-
sippi. Then Marquette, a Jesuit mis-
sionary, and Joliet went over their
tracks and down the great river to
central Illinois and then cross .coun-
try back by way of Lake Michigan.
Nine years later La Sale followed
this route, down the Illinois river to
the Mississippi at about the place
where Marquette or Joliet quit, then
continued down to the Gulf of Mexi-

man found, no one knows from where
he came. The white man found him,
studied him, destroyed him, but he
still wonders concerning his source.
Students of ethnology, however, be-
lieve the Indian either descended
from the lost races of yore, or came
from North Asia through Alaska,
down the Pacific coast, dispensing
from there throughout the continent.
The Indian has certain physiological
characteristics of the Tartar. How
long this dispersion required, no one
can tell. The Indian may have in
habited the forests and plains Of
America for many centuries, rowing
from place to place, carrying on his
tribal wars, and setting up his wig

STRETCHING THE FOOD DOLLAR
BY CANNING NEAT SEPPLY
Demonstration To BE Given On
Milford Farm

Another meeting to help the farm
wife. to cut food costs is to be held
at the farm of Mrs. Jennie Short,
near Milford, next Tuesday, April
25 at 1880 O'Clock. The subject of
this meeting will be the canning of
meat and demonstration showing
the cutting of It, processing in tin,
and use of the pressure cooker will
be given by Miss Pearl Macdonald
of Newark. An average farm family
of five uses from 800 to $3.50 OF
meats and meat substitutes a year.
The more that the wife has on her
winter pantry shelf the less this
meat item is going to be. Some of
the club women report taking care
of the meat needs of their family
for the entire year by canning pork,
veal, chicken, and beef. This is. al
so. a source of relief when uneX-
pected company comes as well as
an economic saving.
Three questions are being asked
all club members at these food
meetings:
Are you raising as much of
your food supply as possible this
year?
2-Are you buying any foods that
could be made at home. Example
bread, cheese?
3-Are you choosing foods that
will give the most health value for
money expended?
Following these suggestions Of
economy, home gardens are being
stressed again this year; canning
and preservation meetings are being
scheduled: cheese meetings, both
cottage and hard cheese are being
held and more careful buying of
health foods being urged. "A penny
saved is a penny earned" is the
timely slogan of these rural house,
wives.
Information on canning of meats
or vegetables or fruits. can be OBJ
tanned from the extension Office at
Dover at any time.
