It's a little late to mention II
now. but John Collier thinks 1t
might be a good idea to elect an
Indian president Of the United
States.
Not this time, OF course. Mister
Collier is commissioner of the Of
flee OF Indian Affairs. which Is 'un-
der the direction OF the Secretary
OF the Interior, and Secretary Har-
old l.. Ickes Is a very strong Roose-
welt man indeed.
There Is no reason why we
could not have an Indian president
some day" Collier said in an inter
view on the current economic and
professional prospects OF the Red
man.
Other nations in the Americas
have so honored men OF Indian
hood"
In years OF knocking around the
Pueblos and reservations, Collier
has had an opportunity to observe
the Indians outstanding traits. He
listed them eagerly
Indians are notable for their
probity, their humanitarianism
their complete patriotism and burn

Use of Quinine

An old well-established remedy
was to put quinine, or something
bitter on the ends of the fingers.
The school teacher to whom / have
referred got the consent of most
Of the parents to try this and he
put a saturated aqueous solution
of quassia on the ends of the fin
gers. The children were given this
treatment until they had stopped
biting the nails for one week.
After this period had gone by
most of the pupils had been con-
ditioned to give up the habit. But
if after the third days application
was made no improvement was
noted, it was found best not TO per-
sist as continuation only made the
habit more stable.
! The teacher was afterwards ad-
vanced to a high school and con-
tinued his studies. He found that
about 80 per cent of his pupils
were active nail biters, and about
35 per cent reported that they had
once been but gave it up. In the
higher grades the percentage still
further decreased, so it may be as
sumed that with the social pres
sures of adult life the habit does
decline almost to the vanishing
point. Most Of the high school pu-
pills said they did il only under ex-
citement. An exciting movie would
start them.

Your Health
Nail Biting Balks
Combined Efforts

1T Is VERY flattering to have
people ask you how to stop a child
from biting its nails, as if you had
the answers 10 such questions In
your vest pocket and could cure

Grandma and the neighbor lady
had nearly driven themselves
crazy for years trying by threats,
tears, persuasion, appeals and
everything that has ever been sug-
gested to stop it. 1t seems a very
little insignificant thing to balk
the medical profession, but they
are just about as helpless as any
one else in the presence OF this
habit.
In fact the only scientific in
uuiry into the subject known to
me was made by a school teacher.
He noticed early in his career
when he was assigned to grade
school situated in the melting pot
section of a large city that while
in general the cleanliness Of the
hands Of most of his pupils left
something to be desired few had
beautiful clean fingertips. He soon
found why. They were accustomed
to put them in their mouths, either
for sucking or nail biting pur-
poses. Making a count Of them he
found that the number who did
this was about 40 per cent Of the
class. The girls were slightly more
numerous than the boys.
No Improvement
Being, as he says, as naive as
the next person he first asked
them politely to refrain from do
ing so. Needless to say this made
no improvement at all. He had
conversations with them. None OF
them knew why they did it. Most
of them admitted it was a bad
habit, and they all wished they
could stop. But they didn't.
AS years went on he got new
class every year, but in spite of
the fact that the pupils changed,
tn, habit was found to be present
just the same in the same proper
tons of new pupils.
In short, it is a habit. And "a
habit is not a trifle," according to
Plato Montaigne said, habit is
second nature, and the Duke OF
Wellington saw him and raised
him and said, habit is ten times
nature. Since the habit is in
grained in 40 per cent of children
of primary school age the respon-
sibility for stopping it rests on
parents who can get it in its very
incipiency. 1t probably becomes
established almost in the cradle.
Psychiatrists may tell you that it
is an imitation Of the sucking re-
fiex, but that doesn't help much.
The fact remains it is a habit and
must be broken up early if it is to
be broken up at all.

Records Residents
Given Run Around

Twenty-Five residents of "Rec-
ords' Addition petitioned the city
council Tuesday night to abandon
their plans for making their street
legal for but one way traffic, and
asked that the council hustle up
and name the street so they could
get up house numbers, in order
to receive mail service.
After presenting their case, the
petitioners, headed by Frank Maui
pin, were promised action later
on in the evening. After some
discussion, it appeared that the
council was not too particular
about ordering one way traffic.
Petitioners asked that the U road
be given three street names in
stead of but one for the three
sides. After the petitioners left,
the council forgot all about the
matter and it is still not officially
settled, one way or the other.

Kwanians Hear
Excellent Address

Programs at the Kiwanis meet
ings this year have been unusually
interesting throughout the year,
but the highlight of the entire
season was the one this week.
Speaker for the occasion was Mrs.
Merritt, dean of women at Will
lamette university, swho has a
leave of absence from her school
work to handle the women's work
at Hanford.
Mrs. Merritt's talk was instruc-
tive, interesting and sparkled with
wit. She illustrated her talk on
"Life, Liberty and the Pursuit"
with drawings on blackboard, hi
lighting her points. Clubmen,
always jealous Of the time spent
at lunch, could cheerfully have
given her an additional period of
time, in spite of their busy-ness.

Engineers Hear
River Problems

p. G.. Richmond, member of the
local port commission, M. M
Moulton, attorney for the COM
mission and Francis Ludlow are
in Walla Walla today attending
the hearing being held by the army
engineers on the type and size OF
vessels proposed to be used on the
Columbia river. The hearing is to
aid in determining the size of the
locks in the proposed dams and the
depth of the channels which will
be required for river navigation
following the war.
The engineers plan two more
hearings in the near future, one at
Lewiston, regarding the use OF
waters from the Snake river and
the other in Portland where the
problems of the river operators
will be heard.
Building of the dam is appar-
emily much nearer than most resi-
dents realize. More than a hum
dred workmen have been en-
ployed at the damsite for the past
couple of months and several
steel structures have already been
erected. There seems no doubt
but that construction work will be
started as soon as the war pres
sure is relieved.

All Quotas Raised
in Nations Fifth
appeal for Funds
Leaders hope extra eff
fort will succeed in add
ing to war effort

With the increase i'm the national
budget for the Fifth War Loan
drive, Benton County's quota has
been upped, as well as the state
and local districts. However, the
swiftly moving events now taking
place in the war theaters, the urg-
ent need for additional funds to
back the fighters is so apparent
that some towns are making their
quotas in the first few days OF
the drive. @a@ .e
In Benton county, Carl Howard
has again been selected as chair
man of the drive, with Mayor A.
c. Anon again named as the Ken
newick district chairman. Neither
Of the men have as yet worked
out plans for the intensive drive
which BOTH expect to become
necessary to raise the required
funds. Tentatively much the same
program will be followed as in
the Fourth drive, with women's
organizations and Rainbow Girls
making special campaigns.
While the county drive seems
terrific, the total includes the
bonds issued on the Hanford prof.
ect, where regular deductions are
being made for bond purchases.
But the local quota has been
raised 25 percent too, although
Kennewick finally topped its al
lotment last time.
Mrs. o. p. Miller will have
charge of the women's quota,
which has not yet been set, al
though in the last drive il was
SIS, 900 worth of bonds. Mrs.
Miller would be glad to have some
volunteers. to help with this par
ticular job. In this part of the
drive the allotments may be ear
marked for specific purposes, such
as airplane construction, hospital,
etc.
The drive is now on. The neeo
is greater than ever before. Buy
every bond you can possibly fl
nance. Remember, you are not
spending your money, but invest
ing it in the most secure way pos
sible in war-torn world. Do
your part-your full part, that
not single serviceman or woman
may lack single thing for his
comfort, convenience or in hurry
ing the end of this terrible con-
flict. Put your money in bonds.
DO 1T NOW!
