THIS Fourth of July is close at hand and on the following
(lay, July filth, iiew.sai its of America will he filled
villi the record of accidents thai resulted from carelessness
on the day before.
The national safety council does a good service by
tabulating the causes of the 2:5!) deaths that the last Fourth
of July brought to America, so that we may know what
kinds of accidents to avoid on the cumin;; holiday. Drown
ings led the list, with Motor traffic came second,
with 7(5. Fireworks were the direct cause of J 1 deaths, and
contributed to many of the traffic accidents; while fire
arms, shot off by mistaken patriots in an excess of zeal.
took nearly a dozen more lives. The exercise of ordinary j
care by each holiday-maker would cut the tolls of drowning
and motor traffic down to zero. And no man with reason
able forethought will permit his children to use fireworks or
gluts. Fourth of July fatalities are due chiefly to foolish
ness and careless.
1'residenl Hoover seems to have the iidd notion that a
man must have some genuine legal and mental qualifica
tions in order to be appointed to the federal judiciary.
The president has aroused the ill-will of a number of
party leaders recently because of this notion of his. They
have a way of recommending party hacks for appointment
men, often, who have no more business on the bench than
so many mechanics. Ilecause I'rusident Hoover ignores their
wishes, they are filling the air with protests.
A man can generally be judged by the enemies he makes.
Using that measuring slick, the American people will pre
sently be giving President Hoover even more of their esteem
and admiration than he already has. For the presidents we
remember the longest and most fondly are generally the ones
who make enemies of the political old guard. '
POEM FOR THE DAY
By LOUIS ALBERT BANKS
JULY
July, we're fclufl to bc: your f.icc,
You briny ho mucli of smiling yracc - " ' " '
Best humored rnontli of nil the yeitr,
You never fail to bring good cheer.
Although sometimes you're pretty hot,
You speed our happiness a lot;
1 hough now and then you make us bwcat.
We do not often have to fret.
You are the month we celebrate
When Uncle bam talks loud, feels greatL
Recalls again those hero days
When he and Bull went different ways. 1
We're glad to he good friends again
To be at peace with Englishmen,
But every you send a crowd
lo shout our lieedom frank and loud.
You nre the month for outing camps
When happy people take their tramps.
You give the world barefooted boys
And bring them health in outdoor joys.
You populate the swimming pools
And bring to light a host of fools,
But in your breath the harvests rise
Bencathyour dazzling summer skies.
If this new calendar should come
And even now it beala its dium,
We'll hale to nee them clip your wings
You bring us such a wealth of things.
We never will go back on you
We vo regret to see you through.

It seems that the little boy had
made a mistake ami was uainx toe
rubber al the end of the pencil tu
erase It. 'i tie pencil diun t like
tins al all.
"How dare you rub out what
I've done!" it cried. This diun t

wi.iuii maue the iieticii angrier and

"Just Ihink of It," said the' pen

"Alavhe you didn't iiell it : yUt,"
said llanhl.
"Humph, I've been writing long

"IPs easy to Kpell 'every thing'

"Thai's wrong," said Klor. "it's
M-K Ii I-IJ .M.. You should have put
the 1 bef iro the l,T."
The pencil gave him a hlark
look. "I don't know what you ever
learned in school, hut I was taught
that It was always bad manners
to put 1 before you."
This puzzled i he shadow-children
somewhat. However, the rub-
"Help! I n Being hubbedJ"
her finished rubbing nt this mo
ment and the pencil turned back
to the paper.
"Very well ," it remarked to the
shadow -child ren, "since you're so
sine that it's spelled AI-K-J-1-U-.I,
I'll spell it your way. iiul I don't
think you'ro right."
"You never think anyone Is
right," the rubber called down.
The pencil didn't answer, as il
was loo busy writing. Tiie rub
her addressed itself to Ihn shad
ows. "He's always making the
silliest error. Ho spells 'separate'
S K P-K U-A-T K. r n d 'coming'
C-()'M M-I-N-G. and 'nim.-l, M-K-A-T.
and when ho gels a word like I
seize or 'Mississippi' or 'Constan
linuple' -why, he puts down all the
letiers in Ihe alphabet and ex
pects them to be right."
"Hm-hi," said the peiicllf who
Just finished a sentence, "so you're
talking behind my back, are you?"
"You talk often enough behind
mine," retorted the rubber. At
this the pencil became so angr
that it made a comma Instead of
a period.
"Now I suppose I'll have to fix
that up. too. This constant rub
bing is wearing me out. It's a won
del' I last as long lis I do."
"All this writing to fill In what
you rub out doesn't help mo lust
any longer either." exclaimed the
peniil. "What consoles me though
is that the shorter I get, the near
er I draw to you "
"Does that make you a drawing
pencil?" asked Yam innocently.
Hut the pencil was very, very
angry. JIc didn't even hear her.'
"I'll teach this rithber not to In
terfere in my affairs-" And with
that ii tried so hard to turn around
that it slipped out of the little
ranks fingers nnd fell to the
floor, right on the rubber.
"There: Now I've done it:'
cried the pencil. The next instani
it changed its tone, for the rubber
bounced lightlv otT the floor and
the poor pencil fell on its head.
"What a shame!" said Hanid. '
"P's lnok'Mi its point mid now it

One of the most common causes of school
absence is tonsilitis. There is hardly a day that
oiy mail does not include letters from parents
tbout the way their children breathe. They
mention that the youngsters snore or fail to hear
oroperly. This is not surprising.
Most children have very sensitive tonsillar
-.issues. With some of the little patients the
trouble is almost chronic. This leads to frequent
attacks of ton si litis.
The tonsils in a normal throat are not large.
They are found on each side of the throat, of
course, but do not protrude to the middle. If
diseased, the tonsils are enlarged, perhaps to the
size of walnuts.
R. -tween the nose and the above parts of the
throat von see when the mouth is open, is the'
location where adenoids develop. These are
masses of tissue in annearance like the tonsils.
