Colonel Morris S. Frank.
But he didn't give in. He heard of work
being done in Switzerland in training dogs to
lead the blind. He went and got one of those
dogs. Then he came back to America and
helped to build up similar training school
here, the famous Seeing Eye" In that school
thousands of blind men and women have
learned, as Colonel Frank did, how to keep
on living and doing things for themselves.
Perhaps he wouldn't really have died if he

The younger man shrugged. Just that"
he said. Nothing

bV Arthur Bartlett

don't know sterner advocate of rest and
relaxation than DR.. Jay B. Nash, director
ofphysical education at New York University.
He constantly breaches the need of combating
fatigue, the great killer. But in recent
speech before the American Association for
Health, Physical Education and Recreation,
he listed the fatigue of boredom" as one of
the three most dangerous forms of fatigue.
"Unmotivated people," he said. 'are tired
in the morning before they have done any
thing. There is a lack of adrenalization which
comes from interest, sparkle, joy and happi-
ness"
DR.. Nash was not contradiCting himself
What he was saying was that we need relaxa-
tion because we get tired, but that one of the
most firing things of all is doing nothing. And
the only relaxation from that is doing SOtne-
thing
Killing time is deadly job.
Dr. Nash says it is lack of adrenaliza-
ton" that does the dirty work. l wouldn't
know about that But have seen his prescrip-
ton of interest, sparkle, joy and happiness, -
acquired in regular doses by having some
thing to do, work wonders.
There is, for instance, the President of the
United States. Crippled by infantile paralysis.
he might we'll have dropped into life of idle
ness. But he loved life too much. And life, he
knew, meant doing things. So he did things
and certainly today Franklin Roosevclt's
political opponents agree with his friends that
= l. L. H.. H.
he is.
Then there is my friend Edison who, far
from being in some exalted job, is one of
the many accountants in large corpora
ton office. The last time l saw Edison,
a couple of Saturdays ago. he was stand
ing in the middle of his little farm plot
swinging pitchfork. Tanned and grinning
from ear to ear, Edison was the picture of a
happy, healthy man full of life. Yet year
ago, Edison, pale, thin and worried, was
running around to doctors trying to find out
why he was always tired. He thought he was
dying. Certainly - like a lot of other people
whose life has become dull routine - he was
dead on his feet. For ten years he had been
getting up in the morning, going to the office.
SOulS liuOuSll NlIOi 60, lilCH kOHiS
back to his apartment. Year by year he had
become more cranky around the apartment
less willing to 60 out evenings or on Sundays
with his family Too tired
Then. rather against his better judgment
he had bought rundown old farm in the
suburbs. Instead of sitting around when he
got home. he started painting, papering
and planting vegetable garden. Within a few
months he had transformed the place And
what is more important, he had transformed
himself He had defeated the fatigue of bore
dom.
A personnel manager, with a reputation
for getting extraordinary results out of his
organization, once told me his Number One
rule. when see signs of a man going fiat
on his job he said, Il find something more
for him to do. You'd be surprised how it
almost always picks him up, puts new pep
into him. l don't mean that l ask him to
overwork But find something to give him
new interest, to keep him alive"
Oh, yes, there are plenty of times when the
idea of doing nothing seems luxurious.
But you have to do something, or die.

Apprentices
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Waller Hotel.

Raleigh, July 21.-Clarence L.
Beddingfield, executive secretary OF
the newly constituted apprentice
ship council, auxiliary to the State
Department of Labor, reports splen-
did cooperation among employers
and workers alike in his preliminary
surveys.
In an effort to ascertain the num-
Der of skilled workers in the various
crafts and trades in North Carolina,
SO that the need for training replace
nents may be scientifically met, Mr..
Beddingfield is assembling COM
prehensive cross-file of workers. In
formation lis being obtained from
the State-Feleral employment agen-
cies, from labor unions and from en-
ployers fo labor.
When the project was undertaken
it was feared that there might be
some jealousy or resentment among
workers already on the jobs and in
their organizations. To the contrary,
the State Federation of Labor has
offered every possible assistance and
made available essential records.
contractors and employers of skilled
labor were expected to approve the
plan, but the eager cooperation
among them has also been agreeably
surprising to the council.
The council has functioned only
ten days and, of course, hasn't ac-
complished a great deal. When the
files now being developed are com.
pleted it will be possible within a
few minutes to ascertain the number
of master masons, electricians, steam
filters, carpenters, ETC., in the State.
These will be classified as to en-
ployed or unemployed, as to age and
race, and as to length of service in
the trade. From this data it will be
comparatively easy to determine
what trades have surplus and what
a shortake of skilled craftsmen and
the apprenticeship ALLEGATIONS will
be encouraged accordingly.

LETTER
To the Editor:
/ beg of Mrs. Wright, for her
health'S sake, not TO exercise too
much anxiety about the world ''going
to the dogs, for, of my own know
ledge, the world has come to an end
about sixteen times during my short
stay here. There were great prepara-
tions made in the year 1000 A. D.
for the coming of the end that never
came. So Mrs. Wright can rest as
sured that this oil world will "amble"
right along long time after she has
gone, and the "new generation will
still be going to the dogs, the same
as when grandpa" was a pup.
And don't forget, people will still be
drinking their liquors regardless of
any law, and they will be drinking
mostly bad liquors if prohibition"
is enforced. Any second rate psy-
chologist knows that it is the rot
tenest psychology in the world to try
to force persons to a certain pattern
OF behavior. All the laws in the world

wont stop persons from smoking
hashiSh taking heroin paregoric,
morphine, caffeine, cocaine, or any
other opiate or drug. We tried "pro-
hibition" for a decade or more, and
never was anything more of drastic
failure.
If Mrs. Wright is arguing prohibi-
ton on the score of health and
economy, would suggest that Mrs.
Wright also start a campaign against
''snuff-dipping And if Mrs. Wright
can give me one good point in favor
of snuff-dipping, will give her
twelve against it.
If Mrs. Wright really wants to
know why people partake of alco-
holic beverages, I will tell her. The
young drink because they think it
is smart to do so, thereby, some
times, ending up as alcoholic psy-
chotics, from which there is no cure.
The middle-aged drink as a rule, to
escape from reality. The old-aged,
as a rule, drink to get their blood
circulating on cold morning.
Now, for snuff-dipping, the young
ladies that dip snuff are, principal
ly, the young ladies that have been
"brunged up" in an environment
that is conducive to snuff-dipping.
Since young ladies, and even girls,
like to emulate older members OF
their sex, girls of the snuff-dipping
environS generally take to the pow
dered weed at very early age,
thereby acquiring nervous habit"
that generally follows them to the
grave. Would that the world would
say: away with snuff dipping!
In spite of the "fact" that the world
is going to wreck and ruin on ac-
count of liquors, both good and bad,
we have the highest birth rate and
the lowest death rate since Noah got
drunk. And, even in my day, the
average span of life has increased
from 33 to 35 years. And even If
the aforementioned assertion were
not true, "every misfortune has its
blessing, the white plague, during
the Middle Ages, relieved Europe of
its unemployment situation: Death
solves all problems. "The average
mans life is nothing but the blind
will to live," anyway. So maybe al
cohol is a blessing, after all.
