Remember that eternal vigilance

keeping things in state of ac-

If you had rather be door

WHAT A PARENT SHOULD
KNow AROIJT MEDICINE

It used to be considered very
desirable for a father or mother
to have quite a smatterlng OF
medical knowledge. Elaborate
courses in first aid were consld-
cred most valuable for the young
man or woman contemplating
marriage; and the ability to dis
tinguish between scarlet fever
and a Stomach rash," or to tell
about the spots on a child's ton
sils, was lauded in the parent
who possessed it.
Folks are beginning to be lit
tie more sensible about this. They
are realizing that giving a good
dose of castor oil" is not good
way to treat every disease that
flesh is heir to: while it may
change a simple appendicitis in
to a rapidly fatal peritonitis.
They are learning that folks who
think they can tell about the
spots on child's tonsils some
times mistake a virulent diph-
liberia for a simple tonsilitis, and
waste precious time that may cost
life. And they are gradually
learning that about the only uni
versal treatment that is safe for
every disease, is warm bath
and rest in bed.
Then what should a parent
know about medicine? First, that
every family ought to have
family doctor, chosen before i'll
ness ever arrives. Next, that it
is always wise to telephone him.
when in doubt. Third. that full
cooperation between doctor and
parents is the best preventive, as
we'll as the best cure. The per-
son who ought to know about
medicine, is the doctor. Let him
decide. And let him be the coun-
selor in health as well as in i'll

YOU think I am too strict?
ANSWER: | do not think so,
Il know so. 1t is fine for a g.
year-old boy to be polite and
courteous; but if in making HIM
so you teach him that there are
lots of places that are pleasanter

One is neutrality-suspicious."

The first question is answered in
several stereotyped fashions. The

It's just a guess, because things
may happen to change the mind OF
Roosevelt, the mind Of Congress or
both. But your correspondent is
rceSsing that adjournment will
come nearer the middle of April
than the middle of June.
The fact is that no one wants
TO prolong the session. Contro-
versial issues are arising--such
as the bonus issue-but it's amaz-
ing how quickly the leaders can

But right n0n most o: them

work on the problems pre-
scented by the nominating pri-
p,aries and the fall elections.
Roosevelt prefers an early ad-
journment. AS usual, that prob
ably will decide the point.

DAYS OF CONFINEMENT
IN PICTURES OF OLD
(RY RRTCE CATTON1

Probably it would take a psychologist, TO
explain Just why this nation suddenly mas
grown so fond of looking at photographs
taken a generation ago. ..t. ..., - i
Part of it, no doubt, is the same half
melancholy sort of kick one gets out OF a
neck into the old family album. The
clothes and customs of a former day al
WAYS look pleasantly grotesque, if you get
far enough away from them; there is
unique sort of pleasure in looking at some
gawkv, Enthusiastically CARRIED youth and
realizing, suddenly, that that is yourself
as you used to look. ....
But there's a little more to the present
popuIaritv of old-time pictures than that:
These collections of photos that date back
TO the 1905 and beyond give us spy
glass through which we can peer through
doorthat time has closed and see an era
which has gone from this earth forever.
The oldest thing about it all is that most
of us, as we look on that era, have sneak7
ing. haIf-conscious wish that we might get
back there. ,.,. fnsat.,i /.
For that bygone era-that time when
CAV blades rode perilous high-wheeled BIZ
cycles, and women's bathing suits We're
more voluminous than their street ffoek5
are now, and minstrel shows were a popu7
lar diversion, and motorists were hnen-

faults may have been, seemed at least "

We knew where we were going, then
mr. we thought we did, and that was aoou'
as good-and we had no doubt at all thai
presently, we should get there
Human society seemed to have reached
static phase, and, while its organization
had certain faults that everybody recog,
nized, it still seemed to be pretty we'll
arranged and stable affair.
Radio crooners and agricultural allot-
ment schemes were alike unheard-ot
There were no traffic jams, and neither

Stains.
NRA, RFC, CWA, and all the rest were
just letters in the alphabet, and the stag
gering emergencies that were to call them
into being still slumbered peacefully in the
lap of time. ....,
1t was, in short, simpler age than this
one, and it contained far less to Worry
about. We can't get back to it, and if We
really could we probably should think
twice about it. &c.,. ...,-

To get conditions with which
human beings are connected set
UP in such way that they will
remain orderly and right, is an
impossibility; that fact might as
we'll be recognized first as last.
The human being is born to all
sorts of disorder as the sparks
fly upward. In the affairs of this
life, he is. like a monkey in a

he have to be watched, but some
body has continually to be going
around after him picking up and

statement applies not only to his
physical behavior but to his men,

Persons who are sincerely in
terested in better social condi-
tions are likely to become dis
couraged because nothing will
stay put. Such persons will work
hard and get things all in a row
then Immediately other persons
or groups of persons proceed to
get things all out of a row.
Saturday night after Saturday
night, the police in our city bring
in from ninety to a hundred
DRINKS. There seems to be no let
up to that work. Night after
night misguided women are pick
ed up for soliciting and are taken
to police headquarters. There IS
no end to that state. Yet, if the
police did not persistently bring
such persons in, and deal with
them according to law, the city
would be overrun with them.
Our streets would be in an aw-
full mess in 4S hours if our street
cleaning department were not
constantly on the job.
Business houses would be hope
lessly swamped with bad bills, if
they did not keep up a steady,
forceful, intelligent campaign to
collect. incidentally the reason
many cities, and counties have an
amazing amount of delinquent
taxes is that they have systems of
collection which would discredit
