Men Seem a Bit Vague

The following day. there was luncheon meet
ing Of the Citizens Joint Committee for National
Representation Of which Mr.. Noyes is chairman
This is composed of the various groups which are
united in their desire for national representation
but cannot always agree on the best method of
going about getting it.
More men spoke at the luncheon than at the
dinner. While they were sweet about everything,
they seemed little vague about their ability to
persuade Congress to give them a vote in the
spending Of the taxes they pay.
But, there was nothing vague about the women
They realized full well that constant pounding
away will crack the hardest stone. If the women
will only stick together and keep pounding away,
the unreasonable barriers preventing us from
voting surely will crumble.
Once we are given the vote, the women can
start the long delayed job of removing the tester
ing sores which are concealed in our city behind
cleaning white marble buildings.

breakfast before beginning their days
work? If an adult prefers not to eat
breakfast we guess that's her business
but to allow 2 little child to 20 off
to the school room without proper
feeding is in my opinion near to a
criminal offense against the child
Again some parents allow the child
to be their own judge of what they
should eat Children's meals should
be planned and their eating super
vised by a competent person, to at
least u years of age. The child that
eats nick-nack and drinks coca-colas

usually be undernourished, under
weight and nervous.
REST and sleep is necessity of
every child, for good health, that is
so often overlooked by the parent. A
school child six to ten years of age
should lie in bed ten hours day and
sleep not less than eight hours. Out
door exercise is good but not after 6
or Z p. M. for the school child. A child
not getting sufficient rest or sleep or
sleep will become thin, irritable, ner-
vous and inattentive each day, after a
few hours work.

The report cited the fact that the
curb market has been moved again
to a new location, on Horner street.
1t was noted that some $1,000 in gross
sales were lost during the past year
by reason of the fact that the curb
market had to move so often, and
sometimes nowhere to go. The new
location was described as very good.
