Responsibility

IA child is the repository of in
finite possibilities and comes into
the world a potential asset to society,
as it comes in response to a universal
call, and in fulfillment of natural
law. If it ever becomes a liability.
the fault is more with society than
with the parents or the child, as So
ciety has the advantage of the ac-
cumulated knowledge and wisdom of
the ages, to which the child has an
inherent right, and society, as well
as the parents and the child must
suffer and pay for what the child
does not get"
This responsibility is one that So
ciety must carry. To shirk it is no
economy. To pass it on to the child
without providing the preparation
that systematic early education will
give is to fail in our responsibility
to the past, the present and the fu--
ture.

COL CHARLES A. LINDBERGH, by
~ his flights across Arctic regions in
1888, has enabled the Department Of
Agriculture to demonstrate conclusive
ly that the spores of plant disease can
be borne on remote air currents.
With spore trap of his own devils
ing, which he called "the skyhook,"
Colonel Lindbergh obtained specimens
which confirmed the previous theories
Of government experts that plant dis
eases may be carried even across con-
tinents by air currents.
That was announced by Fred c.
Meier. the department expert who in
terested Colonel Lindbergh in the
work.
Colonel Lindbergh devised his "the
skyhook," light. strong contrivance,
easy to operate and well adapted to
protecting sterile glass slides from con-
tamination except for the time they
were exposed. Mr.. Meier prepared the
slides and has examined and photo
graphed them. He credits Colonel Lind
bergh with careful work.
