They Learn to Produce

Two years ago, Henry Ford orig
mated Camp LIE .eion," near Dear
born, Mich, where boys, wanting
more than a place to eat, sleep
and play, could go. The next spring
IS boys pitched d row of army
tents there, and went happily to
work.
BY the end of the summer they
had grown husky, tanned, self reli-
ant and had more than earned their
keep.
The next year, Mr.. Ford financed
Camp Willow Rum" with $50 boys.
The boys govern themselves in
these camps. They live in tents and
eat in mess hall where they are
given plenty of good food. They
learn how to plant with tractors and
other implements supplied by Ford.
What they produce is sold, with
each boy receiving a daily wage,
in addition to sharing alike the re-
manning profits at the end of the
season. After the work-day they
have time for recreation such as
baseball and swimming.

Apply Medieval Shock
Treatment for Madness

Until recent times, the treatment
of madness was a kind of desperate
punishment. In medieval mad
houses patients were sometimes
bound in whirling chairs and spun
till blood ran out of their ears. 9th
ers were plunged down steep
chimneys onto a pile of writhing
snakes.
Today psychiatrists again apply
with scientific refnements some
thing very like medieval shock
treatment to victims of schizophre-
MIA (dementia praecox). Most
common form Of insanity, schizo-
phrenia packs 100000 patients in
U. S. mental hospitals. Whether
social, psychological or physical
difficulties cause schizophrenia no
one knows. A schizophrenic may
believe that he is Napoleon, or that
his children are trying to kill him.
Or he may fall into rigid positions,
lasting for hours. For many schi-
zophrenlcs there are no more hu-
man emotlonS-only a slow retreat
from lie INTO deathlike stupor Less
than per cent are lucky enough
to come back to sanity without
treatment.
Until 1884, medical science could
do very little for schizophrenia.
Then Dr. Manfred Sakel of Vienna,
now in Manhattan, announced that
since 1923 he had been shocking
schizophrenicS back to sanity with
large injections of insulin. In 1885,
DR.. Laszlo Won MEDINA of Budapest
successfully shocked schizophrenics
with metrazol, a camphor-like drug.
Psychlatrlsts the world over hailed
this revival of the old medieval
technique, enthusiastically set to
work to confirm the results of their
European colleagues.
After 10 years of experimenting,
physicians take a soberer view of
shock treatment.

very surprising thing. That Isl il
would have been surprising to any
one who didn't know Peter and his
tricks. He leaped off to one side,
making just the longest leap he pos
slbly could SO that there was long
distance between the place where
his feet left the earth and where they
touched it again. Then he did it
again and again and still again.
After that he headed straight for
the Laughing Brook and when he
reached it he ran along IN the water
on the very edge until he came to a
hollow log lying on the bank. That
log was hollow its whole length and
open at both ends. Peter crawled
into it from the end nearest the
Laughing Brook and there he made
himself comfortable while he rested
and listened to the dog.
He could tell just what that dog
was doing as well as if he were
watching him. You see Peter leaves
a little scent in his tracks. He can I
help it, So all the dog had to do was
to keep his nose to the ground and
follow that scent. All the time he
kept barking to let his master know
that he was following Peter. When
he reached the place where Peter
had turned and ran back along his
own tracks he was puzzled and
stopped barking After a little he
began to work back He suspected
what Peter had done, but he wasn't
quite sure and he didn't bark much.
When he reached the place where
Peter had made the long jump to
one side he stopped barking alto
gether. Peter smiled He knew
just how that dog was running back
and forth trying to make out where
Peter had gone After a while he
barked once. He had found the
place where Peter had touched the
ground after his long leap.
Now, that dog had patience and
perseverance. He kept at IT until
at last he found where Peter had
started for the Laughing Brook.
Once more his voice rang through
the Green Forest. But when he
reached the Laughing Brook he
stopped barking. You see the run
ming water had carried away Peter s
scent. Peter chuckled BY and by
he heard the hunter come ever and
talk to the dog and encourage him
to hunt for the lost scent Then he
heard the hunter come tramping
along the bank of the Laughing
Brook. What do you think happened
then? Why, that hunter sat down on
the very log in which Peter was hid
ing. Yes, sir, that is just what he
did! He sat on the log while. the
dog hunted and hunted for the lost
scent
Of course it made Peter a little
bit nervous, but he just had to laugh
to himself to think how close to-
gether he and the hunter were with
out the hunter having the least idea
of it.

False Teeth at Five

False teeth are sore trial to
many a middle-aged person, but to
Barbara Jean Bates of Nebraska
City they are an infantile cross to
bear. For Barbara must wear false
teeth though only FIVE years old.
Barbara's baby teeth were found
to be badly decayed. They were
undermining her health. Yet, with
out them, she could not chew. A
complete set of false teeth was the
prescribed solution Inasmuch as
her mouth is not permanently
formed, she must get a new set OF
false teeth every year as she grows
older-but Barbara has one hope

terparts may not look forward
When her second teeth grow out, she
may discard her plates altogether.

No Mirror improvements
In More Than Century

When famed German Chemist
Baron JuStus Won Liebig made the
first modern mirror los years ago,
he poured his new silver;ng solution
from laboratory beaker on a pane
of glass, gave humanity the best
look at itself il had ever had. He
also left a formula which u. s.
manufacturers used, little changed,
TO turn out some $50, 600 600 worth
of mirrors for thousands of uses
from microscopes to cocktail bars
in one year. The curious fact about
the industry was that it had never
been able to make a substantial
improvement on Liebig's method.
In most of the 500 u. S. plants,
Workmen with porcelain pitchers
tediously hand-poured the liquid or
fat plates of glass, had to wait a
haf-hour or more for the solution
(silver ammonium nitrate and RO-
chelle EPSON salts) to deposit its
silver.
OF train at Tangerine, F'a., one
day climbed a seamy faced, bald
ing Philadelphia chemist named
William Peacock. He was on his
first vacation in 10 years and he
figured he had it coming to him.
For since his last holidays Chemist
Peacock had tried thousands of for
mulas to modernize Liebig's proc
ess, and he had finally succeeded.
Before he left his one-story Colonial
laboratory on Philadelphia's Main
Line his process vas in use in three
big mirror plants Ind he has visions
of some day putting a full-length
mirror on every bedroom door.
