y. VIZ VN SO :
HOME HYGIENE I'm THE
SCHOOLS

DO you know anyone who wants
to board a baby?" asked a Red Cross
nurse OF a high school student In a
town in Massachusetts. This girl
had been studying the care OF babies
in her Red Cross course In Home
Hygiene and Nursing the sick. In
asmuch as she had 40 baby brother
or sister at home, she had induced
her mother to permit her to take a
baby to board. so that she might
| tend 1t, and thus perfect herself in
the Red Cross part Of her regular
school work.
Now that girl had the right idea
about practice making perfect. She
meant to get married some day. and
she believed in preparedness. The
offspring of such a mother would
certainly stand a better chance OF
getting started right in life, than
one who had no experience In child
care.
During the world war, when the
flu epidemic IA sweeping like a
tornado throughout the land, carry
ing death and terror in It's wake,
there were not enough trained nurs-
es to look after the sick. Those who
had taken the course given by the
Red Cross were OF great service In
caring for the sick, not only In their
homes but In the community.
Some schools asked that the Red
Cross give to Its pupils a course IN
Home Hygiene. Where this was done
1t has proven most helpful. not only
to the students, but in a larger way
In public health work. Not only girls
but boys are taking the course In q
New Jersey city. The Instructor
writes
Girls and boys vie with each other
to do the best work. We are taking
the time now to get acquainted with
the children diseases. as we are
having a few cases OF chicken p0x
and measles in town. A surprise to
me Is the way the boys are learning.
They can make much better beds
than the girls. We are planning a
bedlmaking contest between the boys
and the girls. Each group Is deter
mined to out do the other"
A student In a Massachusetts High
School wrote at the end OF her
classes. IF Home Hygiene were
given the four years in school, !
would certainly take 1t every year.
/ have enjoyed it, and it has helped
me a great deal"
A high school student In North
Carolina said. 1Since | have taken
this course | realize that | can give
my services now, not wait until | am
older. / can be OF more help to my
mother, and can assist In protecting
the community"
Any school council or group that
helps the local Red Cross Chapter to
bring Home Hygiene classes to Its
students is doing something OF last
ing value.
1t is constructive educational work
that is going to make better homes,
healthier families and improve the
standards In the community. Once
this work is established. there will
be less need for free clinics. and SO
much indiscriminate charity work.

GETTING DOWN TO
BRASSTACkS
HIGHWAY DEATHS INCREASE

Every citizen OF Sheridan count,
should be intensely interested in thu
figures recently published by thu
statistical bureau of the Nationa
Safety Council. which gives the est
mated deaths from motor vehicle!
for the first seven months of 1884.
According to this report, 1t Is es
timated that 1850 persons lost theil
lives in such accidents during the
period from January LIST through
July 31st, which means that 2,83e
more men, women and children died
from motor vehicle accidents during
the first seven months of this year
than during the same period OF 1888,
Reports from cities and states
which include nearly half of the ma
tion's population show that the traf-
fc accident trend during July was
ten per cent higher than the trend
in 1888. II this average holds true
all owe the country, and there is
reason to believe 1t does, then the
national total OF July automobile fat
alities was 5000 compared with 2,760
in July 1888.
Up to Monday 100 persons have
lost their lives In Montana motor We.
hicle accidents thus far in 1884.
Last year there were lis deaths in
the state, in 1882 there were 95 and
in 1881. 100. At this date last year
fatal motor accidents totaled 50.
These figures are astounding and
should cause every citizen IN this
land of ours to wake up and do
something about 1t. 1t Is said that
In the state of Illinois, n person Is
fatally injured in an automobile ac-
cident every four hours and that
one person is injured, perhaps MAIN
ed for life, every six minutes.
This problem strikes at the heart
OF every community, because there
IL no community In the country but
has It's share Of motor vehicles and
more than its share OF careless, IT.
responsible drivers.
There are two factors which seem
to lie at the bottom of this increase
in traffic accidents. The first is
that, with improving conditions pre-
valent in practically all parts OF the
country, more cars are on the high
ways, resulting, OF course, in greater
traffic hazards, The second Is link
ed with repeal Of the Prohibition am
endment with a consequent increase
in the number Of drinking drivers.
The old saying that gasoline and
liquor just do not mix Is certainly be-
ing proven to be true.
The unmistakable place of alcohol
in causing motor vehicle accidents
is demonstrated In the tremendous
weekend peaks of accidents due to
drinking.
Scientific experiments show that
alcohol dulis the mind and blurs the
vision, causing a measurable loss Of
efficiency and judgment wen when
taken In small amounts. 1t starts at
the top of the mind and hits the
Judgment first, and, II ever a man or
woman needs judgment, 1t is when
driving an automobile. That is why
sobriety is ana should be a first law

In the words OF "the Old Observ-

radio in the interest Of safety on the
highways, we would remind u
readers III you want to drive, don't

The American people are begin

Conservatives on the other. This
means a new political alignment cut

far the split will extend into the two
larger parties Is problematical, al
though In some states, such as Mimi
esotas North Dakota and California,
it Is apparent that the real issue will
be between Conservatives and Liber.
ais.
In other sections, no regrouping OF
parties Is evident, although the gen
eral situation indicates that such q
trend will inevitably occur within the
next few years. President Roose-
velt's political strategy has apparent
ly been directed to the winning of
the so-called progressive element OF
the Republican party. Evidently, he
Is confident that the acquisition OF
this element will more than offset
the loss OF the Conservative faction
In the Democratic party. While no
effort is being spared to retain con

When the Trojans failed by six pins to take three straight from the "One-Two" Utes last night they lost their chance to share first place honors with the Dons in the Southern division of the Elks bowling league. Earlier in the evening the Dons had won two games from the Bruins, and they are now Southern champions, with 14 wins and ' losses. The Trojans copped second place, with 13 wins and 8 losses.
 Fred Henning eliminated himself from the race for high individual rating when he rolled only 533 in his final match, in which the Golden Bears won two out of three from the Broncos. His average dropped to 13495. Barragar now leads at 18595, but Nick Bavard, Bronco, is hot on his trail with an average of 185.72 as the result of his hitting rampage last night. He rolled 595 for total, PA in his first game. His team meets the Indians Friday night in the wind up, and he will have an opportun- ity to seize the crown now pre- cariously held by Barragar.

Of course it might have been the quarter turn as compared to the three quarter turn -1 don't knoW-but the amazing thing was his spirit.
 IncOmparabie Spirit
 On the diamond it is the same. There is no player in the business comparable to Pepper. There are third basemen who can outfield him and outhit them, but he out fights them all and does the most amazing and unexpected things.
 No drive is hit too hard for him to make dive for; no runner too near first that Pepper does not make vicious attempt to get.
 It is a great joy to watch him come galloping in to field a per feet bunt. Up he comes with the ball and--whoosh! over it goes to first as if rifled out of a gun.
 This year he played down the stretch with badly bruised side, caused when he came rattling down to home plate in Boston and collid- ed with Shanty Hogan. This sounds simple enough, but colliding with Shanty Hogan is a terrific thing. In this meeting Pepper came out second. The rest of the season he was one hand hitter. He swung at the ball and the side was so painful that he had to let the bat go with his right hand
 Keep Him at Third
 Baseball fans in general benefited when Martin moved in from the outfield to play third. Here they get to see him in action all the time. Before, Branch Hickey had his leading man playing in the wings Now he is where he should be-downstage.
 From baseball viewpoint, how ever, this probably is not true. He is probably a better defensive man in the outfield than at third. But at third. he is where he can be seen and appreciated by the crowd and after all, the baseball mag mates are in the entertainment

 This is not to say that Frankie Frisch keeps Martin at third be- cause he interests the crowd. Frisch is too practical for that. It is my personal notion, however, that many fans go to see the Cardi- nals play ball just to watch the wild horse jump around and yell on third base.

swerving, until he passed away.

Hunt wanted a job at the time Gar

at the White House when the first
bulletin on the Presidents condition
was run off on the old hectograph.
This ancient machine, predecessor of
the mimeograph, had a capacity OF
only so copies.
Franklin Howe, Washington corre-
spondent for a Philadelphia paper,
suggested that Hunt relay the out
put of the hectograph to the cor

Virtual abandonment of the plan
for controlling crop production on a
farm-wide basis for the time being
was announced yesterday by Secre-
tary Wallace at his press conference.
In reply to a question, the Secre-
tary said the administration would
prefer to have a larger majority OF
farmers favoring the one-contract
plan than the 227,789 for as opposed
to 188,008 against registered in Tues
days announcement of the refer
endum of corn-hog farmers.
Later on the administration may try
to get another expression, of senti-

offered to farmers, the Secretary ex-
planned.

corn-hog farmers favored continuance
of corn-hog adjustment and 153, ,181
did not favor it. The administration
announced it would offer a corn-hCg
program to growers, probably by De-

Wallace said the single contract
plan would not call for reductions or
adjustments of each crop grown on
q farmers land, but merely in tile
total land under pillow, allowing the
farmer to use the remainder in any
way he cared to. This plan might
also involve change in the basis OF

Of how in the old days Presidents
would walk over to Newspaper Row"
to oblise correspondents with inter-
,views-a far cry from the Presidents
of this era, who grant press confer
ences at stated hours twice week.
During his newspaper career Hunt
had been a correspondent of the Ma
tional Tribune, Washington Post,
Charleston World and Budget, Colum-
bia State, Terre Haute Gazette, Balti-
more Herald, Deseret News and FL
Paso Times. Lately he had served
the Johnstown Tribune.
His first assignment was the Gull
teau trial and he achieved fame in
reporting the redwood timber fraud
in the General Land Once under
Cleveland.
Four years ago Hunts bad leg be-
came worse and an amputation was
necessary. Although an Episcopalean,
he went to Providence Hospital, a
Catholic institution, for the operation.
