Inferiority complex : Being; awed by a man who knows things you don't know and doesn't know things you do know, The latest thing in metropolitan theatres is a special room for deaf people who would enjoy talking pictures. Seats have been installed with special ear-phones for each spectator so ; that they may hear as well as see the entire performance. Imagine the investment that such equipment m)ust represent yet it must pity or it wouldn't be undertaken. Three or four years ago talkies were not seriously considered. Today , they are commpnplace. A year ago there were only seven technicolor cameras in Hollywood. Now there are 35 in daily operation. A depth dimension will be the next improve ment, then television so that you can put a quarter in a slot and have an evening's show in your own home. There seems no limit to scientific progress, but keeping step with it is becoming a source of worry. Men and women live longer now than did those of half a century ago. The life span has been increased by 17 years. The gain is the result of knowledge. Sickness and death are tragedies in the experience of individuals, but from the point of view, of the, interests of the community, they are just pain bad business. The service of every able-bodied man to society as a whole has a certain definite cash value. If he lives and keeps well ho ought to be counted upon to contribute to the wealth of the community. This is one justification for spending money collected from the public io protect pwblui health. It is community insurance. Itis the business 'of organized society to protect itself against those attacks of disease which grow out of bad living con ditions. .;, I , . . , .. TURN ABOUT'S FAIR PLAY -, .'!i f . .

A FANTASTIC SCHEME Statesmen of Europe are in the habit of remarking the map of the continent every few decades. European peoples arc so accustomed to shifting boundary lines that it is quite natural for statesmen and even engineers to dream of new territories available for national expansion. Countless plans have been evolved for irrigation of the Sahara Desert, for tunneling under the English Channel and the Strait of Gibral tar. Engineers as well as statesmen must have great things to dream about. Seldom, however, has there been such an ambitious enter prise launched as that which was recently announced in France. A group of engineers believes that the Mediterran ean can be piade a fresh water lake by dams at Gibraltar and the Dardanelles and that 430,000 'square miles of terri tory can bo added to the countries bordering: on that sea by lowering its level 500 to G00 feet by the use of the same dams. And further benefit would be gained by pumping the fresh water into the Sahara for irrigation purposes. It is a fabulous scheme and one that is not likely to mater ialize, but it serves to illustrate the difference in outlook between Europe and the United States. Europe is land hungry and water surfeited. She could spare some of her seaboards and other waterways if making that sacrifice would give her more land for colonization by her crowded people. At the same lime the United States, with land to spare, is crying for outlets to the sea, waterways and seaboards. Through immigration America has long been helping Europe solve her problem. Europe can do noth ing in our aid. the soil lit a depth of several I Inches. Crop prntlpeclH are re j ported to ho exceptionally good 111 : nearly all parts of the county.
