Artificial light does not
contain all the colors OF
the spectrum in the same
proportions as found in
the suns rays.
A N ELECTRIC light
i \ often seems yellow
to the eye when. in real
ity. it has very little pure
yellow in It. The COM
bination Of violet, blue,
green, orange and red
simply add up SO that the
eye records the result In
the brain as yellow. Put
. bit more violet and blue
rays into the Light from
an electric lamp and one
can have q white light
rivaling sunlight.
The point In common
about the sun and q
glowing filament electric
light Is that they both
radiate their rays from q
ource which, when
heated, sends on all the
colors in q continuous
blend.
Other light sources,
like the brilliantly color
ed advertising signs now

characteristic colors be-
cause they give of only
certain colors.

Textbook recognition Of the important part Tex
rs Mexicans played In the winning Of Texas indie
pendence is a major objective OF the League OF Unit
ed Latin-American Citizens, a public spirited or
ganization which will hold its national convention in
Harlingen Saturday and Sunday, June l and 2
One out Of every five men who fought for the IN
dependence Of Texas was Of Latin origin, according
TO records compiled by the Lulac group, and they
contributed many a heroic deed to the ultimate sue
cess OF the revolution. And they, mind you. were
fighting against their own blood and government
because they felt that their cause was righteous and
just.
Juan Seguin, after whom the town Of Seguin is
named. is a typical example. A native of San An
tonic, he cast his lot with the Texans from the OPEN
ing Of the revolt.
He was with Travis in the Alamo when Santa
Annas forces attacked the staunch little band.
Travis sent Segun through the lines to Goliad TO
ask for reinforcements. The Texas Latin made the
trip but was unable to get assistance at Goliad.
Meanwhile, the Texans we're slaughtered in the Alamo.
But that did not daunt Seguin. for he organized a
group Of Texas Mexicans into a fighting unit and
Joined the forces of Sam Houston. He and all Of his
men saw action at San Jacinto when Santa Annas
superior force went down In defeat.
Texas had no finer patriot than Lorenzo de zavaIla,
a pioneer who fought for the principles OF freedom.
He was honored by having zavalla county named
for him in 1858. He held several responsible posi-
tons in the Republic Of Texas.
Perhaps the greatest acts OF human kindness shown
by either the Texans or Mexicans during the bloody
revolt were those of the wife Of a Mexican army Of
ficer. Captain TeIesforo Alavez.
Although she could have regarded the Texans only
as hereticS and rebels. she repeatedly saved the life
Of Texans who had been condemned to the firing
squad. She spent most of her time comforting
the Texan prisoners and in caring for their wounds.
The surviving prisoners, she was known as THE
Angel of Goiad Among the many condemned men
she saved who later praised her in glowing terms acre

ness.
Judge Davenport will present a paper concerning
her az the Lulac convention.
The Lulac group Is not attempting in any way to
detract from the heroism OF the Texans; il is merely
seeking recognition OF the important part Texas
Mexcsns played IN the fight for independence. And
they are certain to succeed. Historians are begin

tive and they are beginning to realize that the fight
was not American VS.. Mexican. but Texan (which in

Many Of the text books now used In the schools
are inadequate in this respect. giving the Texas Lat
FMS little or no credit for their paTt in the fight for

Climate Aids Health,
But Care Is First
BY DIR. MORRIS TsHBEN
Editor. Journal Of the American Medical Association.
and Of HygeiA. the Health Magazine

For hundreds Of years. we have known that ci-
mate affects health. The ancient Egyptians and
Greeks, the Romans and Babylonians wrote down
their ideas on this subject. Some Of those ideas were
so well established that they have changed little since
then.
But climate Is not q specific treatment for any
disease There Is net much use In sending a per-
son to a hot. dry climate to improve tuberculosis. II
he win get much less medical care in that climate
than he would get at home.
Climate must always be secondary in considera-
ton to good medical care. The best possible climate
without good medical care viii not be as good for
one as a poor climate with good medical care.
II you must choose between climate and care. there
fore, take the care and let the climate 60.
We know that climate includes temperature. humi-
dity, winds, sunshine. amount OF dust in the air. al
titude, and many similar factors.
Perhaps the most important factor Is temperature.
It varies in different places and is dependent on
sunshine and distance Of the earth from the suns
rays.
Freedom Of the air from dust and water vapor is
also a determining factor. The solid earth is heated
by the suns rays; then 1t returns the heat TO the
everything air. Water heats more slowly. but retains
the heat longer than does land. Water also reflects
heat rays more than land does.
Temperature also depends to some extent on the

water from the surface Of the body. make the body
seem cooler.
Sunlight includes both heat rays and ultraviolet
rays. The sun may shine for many hours or for short
periods, as in winter in the temperate zone.
Total amount Of sunlight received on q single day
in the polar regions is. Of course. more than is receiv-
ed on a short day in the temperate zone. But the
sunniest parts Of the earth are the tropical deserts.
Climate may react on the body by affecting the
temperature and perspiration. and in other ways.
Naturally, effects OF climate are greatly modified by
clothing; the greatest effects are had when the body
Is without clothing.
For years physicians have prescribed a change Of
climate In certain conditions. because experience
has shown that this is helpful.
Sometimes the benefits result from a change in
ones mental attitude; on other occasions. from a
change in his physical condition.
The mere fact that a person understands that he
has changed climates to improve his health may
arouse in him a more intense effort toward this inn
provement.

Uniting Our Police Efforts

A countrywide radio system which would link all
police forces in a unified campaign against crime
has been outlined by y. Edgar Hoover. chief OF the
Bureau Of Investigation Of the Department OF Jus
tice. in, a letter to the head Of the Ohio Highway
Patrol.
In view Of the way radio has proved its usefulness
to scores Of city police departments, this plan would
seem to have much to t.
1t might. indeed, be the means by which we could
achieve the necessary degree Of national co-ordina-
ton Of police work without sacrificing local autonomy.
From the standpoint Of efficiency alone, we need
a federal police force to replace all our local forces.
No one wants that. however, because Of the sacrifice
Of local liberties 1t would involve.
