Advice concerning the correcting
posture exercises may also be OBJ
tanned through the local health de-
partment or through the school
nurse.
/ Poor posture does not only effect
the appearance of the child, but
also its health. How can a child
get two lungs full of good air if
the chest has only part of the ex-
pansion it should have? How can
the blood stream pick up plenty of
oxygen if the lungs are not able
to take it in?
Poor posture definitely handicaps
a person in society and in the bus
mess world. Those people we meet
both socially and in business first
notice our appearance-are we
neat. healthy, graceful, and alive
looking? The employer is looking
for these things in his prospective
employee. Clothes are designed for
the person OF graceful carriage.

"Hurray!" howled the Wolf. SO
the Bad Chaps got themselves false

and one like a pig. Then, wearing
old clothes as many OF the HalloW-

Chaps set out for Uncle Wiggily's
hollow stump bungalow.
Most Of the animal children reach

secret word to whisper to Nurse
Jane or to Mrs. Longears who open

JUMPING JACK and that was a
password. No matter how funny
they looked it was known that they
were Uncle Wiggily's friends. Then
along came the Bad Chaps. At first
Nurse Jane, who was at the door,
thought they were party guests.

Fox.
Hal Hal" he laughed, knowing
nothing of the secret.
Wrong! Wrong!" squeaked the
muskrat lady. "Oh, Uncle Wiggily!
Here are the Bad Chaps!"
And Uncle Wiggily and the Police
Dog squirted their water pistols at
the Fox, the Wolf, and the Bob Cat
driving them away because they
didn't know the secret word.
Uncle Wiggily was too smart for

THE CONCENTRATION CAMP

Announcement made last week that
the government plans to establish con-
centration camp here for INDECENT men,
is something that should meet with the
approval of all and it should mean the
solution of a problem which has con-
fronted this community each winter
caring for indigents who flock here in
large numbers, despite any measures
that can be taken to stop them.
1t is particularly fortunate that the
camp has been decided upon at this
time, for the always large number of
indigents is bound to be increased by news
of the appropriation for the canal.
Men will come here hoping to get work
in spite of widespread warning not to
do so.
Any community has all it can do to
take care of its own needy persons.
When hundreds from other places are
thrust upon them the burden is more
than can be borne.
Conditions during the past four years
have created a large army of men and
boys roaming around the country. Many
of them started out looking for work and
being unable to find it continue to wan
der, living a hand to mouth existence.
The regeneration and rehabilitation of
these men and boys is just as important
to the country's welfare as the rehabili-
tation of business.
This the government hopes to accom-
plish by gathering them into camps
where they can be Strengthened OUT,
mentally and physically and be given
chance to earn enough funds to return
to their homes.
All who solicit aims on the streets are
not 'bums" in the usual sense of the
word but they can very easily become
such unless they are given helping
hand. Many of them deserve a DIT of
help and encouragement, yet it IS diff
ficult for community to give it to
them, it being impossible for the average
person to distinguish between the bum
who would not work under any circum-
stances and the fellow who is tempor-
arily up against it because of conditions
over which he has no control.
The camp will provide home for all
INDECENT men and under the direction of
trained government officials it will be
possible to weed out the BUNS from
the deserving ones, treating each class
as it deserves TO be treated.
The camp represents one phase OF the
"new DEAL which should meet with pop
ular approval 1t is not the intention to
coddle those who are included in it.
Civilian Conservation Camps, scoffers
to the contrary notwithstanding, have
done much to rehabilitate young men
and gave them chance to perform con-
structive work for the government The
concentration camp plan should be
equally beneficial to all concerned

Southland Gets
Light Rainfall

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 81. UP
Even with the help Of a generous
fall last night, many Southern
California points today had re-
ceived less than a normal rainfall
for the season to date.
Los Angeles and Santa Barbara
were exceptions, where more rain
fell last night than in all of last
season to the same date.
The light fall in San Diego left
that region far behind last sea-

which was made like lollypop, than
he did about his lessons.
Baby Bunty was right. All the
animal boys and girls in Woodland
near the Orange Ice Mountains,
where Uncle Wiggily lived, received
an invitation to come to his Hal
loween party that night. The invi-
tations were talked over the tele-
phone by the rabbit gentleman him
self. And to each one he said:
Nov this is a secret. When you
come to my bungalow wearing your
false face, whisper the word JUMP
ING JACK to whoever opens the
door. Don't forget-whisper JUMP
ING JACK"
When those who received Uncle
Wiggily's invitation to his HalloW-
cen party learned that they must
whisper JUMPING JACK, they ask
ed why.
Because" said Mr.. Longears, 81
think the Fox, the Wolf, or the Boo
Cat may try to come to my party.
This they could easily do by dressing
up to look like some of you animal
children and wearing false faces as
you are going to do. But neither the
Fox, the Wolf nor the Bob Cat will
know about whispering JUMPING
JACK and in that way Ill be able to
keep them out of my party"
Everyone thought this was good
idea and it was well that Uncle
Wiggily decided on a secret word as
sort of admission ticket to his par
ty. For that afternoon the Bob Cat
said to the ether two Bad Chaps:
I'VE can easily get in Uncle Wig
gily's Halloween party and eat some
nibbles off his ears"

'GOBLINS WILL GET YOU

"Triek or treat.
If the threat is hurled at you tongiht
by bunch of goblins, you had best be
ready with treat, otherwise dire
things may happen to you.
This particular phase of Halloween
may have risen with the new genera
ton, at least it was not known when a
bunch of goblins used to tear through a
little New England town years ago.
Then there was no thought (or desire)
for a treat other than to take away
somebody's gate, push cow up on the
front porch or do some other bit of
devilment.
The younger generation seems to be
willing to give us a fifty-fifty break on
the Halloween subject, which is more
than can be said for generations which
have passed. The later neither asked
for nor gave any quarter.
Lest some be caught flat-footed (as
we were) when the threat was first
heard, it means, "if you don't give us
treat we will play trick on you.
Therefore it may be advisable to have a
sack of jellybeans, few doughnuts or
some cake handy, to bribe off the
witches when they call.
OF course it may be that even though
the treat be given the trick will come any
how, for witches and goblns are motor
iously undependable, but at least there
is a chance that they will clay off, if
they are treated right. (And we know
that last word should be rightly, but
somehow it doesn't sound SO good that
way).
All this by way of reminding the read
er that Halloween is with us tonight.
Halloween and all the pranks that ac-
company it.
Time was when we used to admonish
the young folks not to damage property
Or persons on Halloween. Twas Just a
wasted effort. Experience has taught
us to save ourselves in this line.

De VALERA OPENS
DRIVE FOR VOTES
10000 Cheer Free State
Chief on Site of 1916 Re-

BY the Associated Press.

DUBLIN, Irish Free state, January
president Eamon de Valera opened
the general election campaign last night
to the resounding cheers of 10000 per-
sons gathered on College Green, the
site Of the beginning Of the 1916 rebel
lion.
He leveled his biggest election gun at
former President William T. Cosgrave
and his party. He asserted that vote
for the CosgTave party would be vote
for England against Ireland.
The British want Cosgrave and his
party back for one reason only, that
they might hold them in the hollow
of their hands and squeeze them as
they want" the Free State President
said.
Richard Mulcahy, prominent member
of the Cosgrave party and former de-
fense minister, surprised his hearers by
advocating in an election speech yes
terday the immediate union of North
and South Ireland.
Mr.. CoSgrave issued a denial of state
ments that he was receiving help from
the British government in the campaign.
These statements were published In O
Free State government party organ.
Mr.. Mulcahys speech was interpreted
by some commentators as threatening a
split in the rank Of the Cosgrave party
He blamed Great Britain for the parti-
tion of Ireland and denounced the oath
of allegiance to the King.
The elections, to be held January "a,
will determine the composition of the
new Dali and will, therefore, decide
whether Mr. de Valera is to remain at
the head of the state.
