Notes of the Homecoming:
Several beautiful floats were in
the parade preceding the New
ark Marietta homecoming game.
Three prizes were awarded for
the best floats. The junior class
float won first prize, and made
up of a football field with the
name Newark under one goal
post and the name Marietta un-
der the other. Beside the foot
ball field was a grave with a
soldiers helmet on it. Above the
field was the word AMERICA in
big letters. Above the grave
was the word EUROPE in big
letters. Second prize went to
the IN" club float. This float
had a large letter IN" erected
on it. Surrounding the IN"
was a boy with a baseball uni
form and bat, a boy with only
a track suit on, a boy with a
golf club, a boy with football
uniform on, and a boy with
basketball uniform on Mil
dred Shepherd, one of the at
tendants to Queen Annette Up
son, is the sister of Velma Shep-
herd, who was Homecoming
queen in 1888 . A small white
dog with large black spot on
it simply wouldn't leave Armor,
a Marietta back, alone before
the game. Everywhere that
Armor went the little dog went
too The markers at White
field should be made of rubber
and fastened to the ground, and
a hazard would be eliminated.
A Marietta player last Friday
night was slightly hurt when
Art Walsh knocked him against
a marker.
There was a man named Oscar
Witt,
And also one named Francis
Schmidt,
And they got all the worst of it
In beautiful OHIO.
For when their teams lost one
or two
The boys would holler, boo, boo,
boo,
And as some kids are prone to
do,
Would tattle. Fie-o-Fie-o!
The end is easily foretold,
The Indians muffed the series

Association is said to be Bricker's
choice for Director of Education,
and he has lent himself to this
campaign of Misrepresentation.
Davey is a lifelong friend of
the schools. His administration
pushed through the School Foun-
dation Law, and saved the
schools from their most serious
crisis. This is the greatest thing
ever done for the schools of
Ohio. All school people owe a
deep obligation to Davey, and
will never be guilty of ingrati-
tude.
Mark well this fact! The State
of Ohio cannot tax real estate,
without a vote of the people. The
constitution forbids it. And the
people will never vote for it.
Even your local officials cam
not tax real estate more than one
per cent of its value, unless you
vote for it. Again the constitu-
ton forbids it. Real estate is pro-
tected by iron-bound conditions
in the State Constitution-as it
should be. See Article XII, Sec
ton Q, of Ohio's Constitution.
If anyone tries to tell you that
real estate taxes will be affected
by repeating the sales tax, or by
any other State activity, tell him
that he is either inexcusably
ignorant, or is resorting to will
full falsehood. Tell him he needs
to read the Ohio Constitution.
Martin L. Davey is one of the
best friends the schools of Ohio
ever had. He is a deeply inter-
ested and sincere friend. His rec
ord and his pledged word guar
antee the full safety of the
schools.

be myth. but the skeleton in your
bathroom is a reality.
Sometime, about 1874 B. c., Aris-
totle, the Greek philosopher, became
interested in sponges and startled
the known scientific world by call
ing them animals. But the scien-
fists, thousands of them, insisted
they were plants. In 1886, learned
gentleman named Gerarde, in his
famous Herbal" wrote: There is
found growing upon the rockies near
unto the sea certaine matter
wrought together of the foame or
froth of the sea which we call
spunges whereof to speak at
any length would little benefit the
reader, seeing the use thereof is so
well known"
Sometime later sponges we're
called zoophytes, or plant animals,
their animal nature being estab-
lished during the first half of the
18th century.
Many of the sponges, including
the species that produces the bath
sponge, live in the sea, and a few
of them live in fresh-water streams
and ponds. Nearly all sponges are
anchored to a rock or some sta
tionary object in the water. or upon
the sea bottom, as we find the Portu-
guese birds nest sponge, which re-
sembles The more familier Portu-
guese nsan-of-war, found on so
many Southern beaches and SWIM
ming at she surface of the sea.

various shapes but are constant for
each species and thus you can
identify your sponge because of its
shape and given common name
The body of sponge has many
pores in the sides which open into
canals leading to chambers and
still other canals within. The larger
pores are to be found at the top and
of course the number depends on
the size of the sponge.
All day and all night sponges are
working to create currents of water
which will bring to them food and
oxygen and carry away waste mat
ter. This work is carried on by a
type of cell which lines certain
canals and cavities within the
sponge.
Few animals approach the sponge
as food The skeletons are not very
tasty and the sponges when alive
give of a strong unpleasant odor;
some even secrete poisonous sub
stances. But tiny animals do hide

More fanciful names have been
given to sponges than to many of
the animals we know Some Of
them are quite realistic, others make
you use your imagination. This is
true of the Portuguese birds nest
sponge. The upper part of the
sponge Goes resemble a birds nest,
but the flowing draperies do not.
However, sponges do resemble one
another in their outstanding fea-
lures, though they vary so greatly
In size, form and habit. He who
studies them finds the task ire
mendous one, for the spongeS seem
to have one desire in common, to be
as different in looks as possible.

or to wash your automobile is &C

But they have proved to them they
are very active. A piece of living
sponge, placed In a pail of water
with some powdered chalk dissolved
in it, will soon make you realize
that currents of water can easily be
seen entering the pores in The sides
and being thrown out like stones
from the crater of an active vol
cano. The sponge is made up of
living cells which would collapse into
a jelly mass were it not for the
skeleton which holds the form in
tact. The skeleton consists of
spiculeS of carbonate of lime or

They must know they will be un-

seeking refuge from an oncoming
enemy, who stopped short at the

Health and Strength Are Objects Of National Defense

notable has been the decline of milk
and water-borne diseases, by pas
teurization of milk, by eradication of
tuberculous cattle, and the estab-
nshment Of safe water supplies
Compulsory inmunization against
smallpox and diphtheria are effec-
lively controlling these diseases
which once took thousands of lives
annually.
There has been a striking decline
in tuberculosis mortality-from first
as the cause of death in 1911 to
seventh in 1935-and the benefits of
water publication are wildly shown
in the rapid and general reduction
of typhoid fever. Effective cam
paigns by public health authorities
have had much to do with the con-
troll Of insect-borne diseases, such as
malaria, yellow fever, spotted fever,
typhus, plague, and dengue fever.
A field in which public health
agencies are playing conspicuous
role IS In that dealing with the re-
lationship between illness and envi-
ronmental, social, and industrial
conditions, the last Of especial i'm
portance today. Here, too, substan-
tial progress is being shown.
1T Is Clear" DR.. Parran says, "that
the campaign for public health has
resulted In many gains. Our present
task is to expedite and intensity the
work so that the great human struc-
ture underlying our whole national
defense program may have the virile
strength, the mental clarity and
alertness, and the physical and spir-
itual staying power which will be
so vitality needed in the days and
years which lie ahead"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1940-07-14

must build upon the solid founda-
ton of strong, healthy men, wom-
en-, and children. We must do
everything humanity possible to raise
the standard Of individual, COM
munity, and national well-being."
1T is not at all over-stating the
case to point out that a sneeze may
tie up an entire shop" DR.. Parran
says. For that one sneeze may
spread cold germs among scores
and even hundreds of workers, de-
laying production of vital materi-
ais. Carelessness In eating may re-
suit in temporary or permanent dis
ability among groups of skilled en-
ployes whose services are essential.
Accidents and illness of all kinds
bring about vast cumulative losses
OF time, and today more than ever
before time is of the essence"
The Surgeon General reaches into
his desk drawer to find the precise
answer to this question:
How many persons in the United
States are disabled each year by
illness and what is the cost in
volved?"
Billions Wasted.
The compilation which he con-
suits enables DR.. Parran to reply
that no less than 100000 Ameri-
cans are always laid up on &C
count of illness of one kind or an
other, and at least $4,000, 600, 900 is
wasted annually through sickness
and postponable deaths. And every
year every worker in the United
States loses nine days from gainful
occupation on account of sickness.
Judged by past standards, the

fighting against those ills. In rural
sections trailer clinics have been put
into operation. In one area alone
this modern health service has pro-
vided blood tests for 80 per cent Of
the population.
The National Cancer Institute has
purchased 912 grams of radium, at a
cost of 100000. which it loans to
selected hospitals throughout the
country. This is given with the
stipulation that no charge may be
made for its use. The institute also
has granted $215,000 for the use of
research groups.
Definitely part of the hemisphere
defense" picture was the recent Pam
American Conference of National
Directors Of Health, which brought
together hundreds of campaigners
for better public health in North,
Central and South America. For 1t
is recognized that disease respects
no boundaries. and that there is a
vital relationship between the secu-
rity of the Americas and the health
standards which prevail in every
section of the two continents.
Thorough this conference steps are
being taken which will intensity the
cooperative action between the
various sections in this part Of the
world as teamwork between State
and Federal agencies is becoming
rapidly more closely knit.
Only Part of Effort.
These newer steps, of course,
represent just small segment Of
the whole public health effort, and

Offhand, one might not think that
there is any relationship between
sneezing, overeating, or the kind of
clothes one wears and the all-ab-
sorbing question Of national de-
Tense. There just wouldn't seem to
be any possible connection between
cough and the security of the
United States. And there would
seem to be matters of far greater
moment these days than whether
or not a more than usual number
of Johnny and Susie Jones are hav-
ing measles.
But the same Federal Government
which is bending every effort to
build more airplanes, more battle
ships, more guns, more munitions
Of every kind, is moving on another
front. and one which it considers
equally important, to strengthen the
Nations defenses..
1t is DR.. Thomas Parran, Surgeon
General of the Public Health Serv-
ice, who explains the steps Uncle
Sam is taking to build up the Ma
tons health reserves, why they
are being taken, and how Mr.. and
Mrs. Average American can help
by keeping themselves physically
fit and mentally alert.
From the cleaning white United
States Public Health Service Build
ing IN Washington, DR.. Parran is di-
recting this vital phase of the drive
for national defense.
Speaking with great earnestness,
DR.. Psrran tells one:
If our preparations for national
security are to be success, we

whose work is almost as varied as
the functions of the Red Cross. They
man the information desk, serve as
secretaries, act as file clerks, handle
public relations, supply information
for newspapers, arrange for speak
ers for all occasions when lecture
is felt desirable, keep scrapbooks
as records Of the chapters various
campaigns and pose for photogra-
pliers when pictures are to be taken.
The corps is 10 years old. It
owes its birth to a decision of che
District Chapter, headed then by
the late Maj. Gen. George Barnett,
U. S. M. c., that the paid and
volunteer Red Cross workers needed
the assistance of a new. young,
flexible volunteer group. For while
the corps had only a vague organi-
cation and ill-defined duties. In
1929 it got its first chairman, Miss
Eleanor M. Connolly, and received
a permanent status.
Today the corps is a thoroughly
organized group OF the younger

dividual. The form Of exercise
should be chosen for the pleasure it
gives. and, preferably, should be
taken in the open air. The deep
breathing which is associated with
vigorous Outdoor exercise Is more
beneficial than any system Of
breathing exercises practiced in
doors.
S. Regular and frequent baths are
recommended to cleanse the skin
and to keep it active. The cleansing
and stimulating bath improves skin
tone and body function and pro-
notes sense of well-being.
6. The i'll effects of extremes of
temperatures and humidity may, in
part, be Offset by properly selected
clothing. Clothing should be of
porous texture, worn loose, so as to
permit the free circulation of air
next to the skin.
Z. Avoid contact with persons
known or suspected Of being i'll with
a communicable disease. Wash the
hands thoroughly with soap and
water before eating and after using
the toilet.
8. When i'll. consult your doctor.
Do not attempt any self-diagnosis
or self-treatment.
8. Have thorough physical ex-
animation each year. Consult your
dentist frequently. Undertake to
have corrected all defects pointed
out to you by your doctor and dem
fist.
The vital role of mental fitness is
given special emphasis by DR.. Par
ran. He tells one that neither an
individual nor a nation can work
well and effectively if obsessed with
fear and worry. It is important,
vitality important, to maintain poise
and balance. The steady-nerved
individual, with his feet planted
firmly on the ground and his mind
as alert as his eyes are clear and
his body strong and healthy, is the
Nations bulwark. The times call
insistently for the ability to exercise
rigorous self-control to achieve the
great end we have In view, namely,
the complete safeguarding Of our
country. Sound minds, sound bod
les are the basis Of national security"
In Defense Program.
The present vastly accelerated
national defense program finds the
United States Public Health Service
working in ever closer partnership
with State and local agencies in the
effort to raise the individual, COM
munity and national health stand
ard. The cooperation extends
along many lines, from the inter-
change of information to actual
monetary grants.
DR.. Parran points out that all of
his efforts are dependent upon the
cooperation Of the entire country.
Through Title vi of the Social
Security law, the Public Health
Service expands and strengthens
State and local health facilities.
Under the Venereal Control Act, the
Public Health Service co-operates
with State groups In educating and
