Parenthood,-says Helen Hayes, attractive and talented actress, ought '.to be a separate profession, attempted only after thorough and compulsory training. Miss Hayes, who in private life is the wife of Charles McArthur, has a child :of her own a 14-months-old daughter. She says: ,;. "I would not think of caring for her myself without spe- cialized study. All her life she has been under the care of a competent nurse. I know that many mothers will criticize me, arguing that only a mother can properly care for a child. That may be true for primitive women, but we have become so civilized that Mother Nature simply can't get to us."," . ; Miss Hayes' statement probably will provoke a good deal of. discussion andas she says criticism. But after allihe is only bringing to a focus a feeling that has been current for a long time; a feeling that a great many children wbujd actually be better off if they got less of the fumbling-and; inexpert maternal care, and more of the skillful care of trained, intelligent nurses. ' . "' " It is quite possible that she is right. Watching the way in which some mothers lug tiny babies to movies, amusement places, and tea rooms, one can only conclude that motherhood does not always provide the good sense and helpful care that the job really requires. '; ; " " - . Yet, 'for the Ordinary niovtal. such an argument is pu'i;el, academic;" The' overwhelming, majority of women ,will ,;cpfe tinue to do as their mothers and grandmothers have done all ' "itheay back to Eye : tliey wilj bear, children and, rear :them, whether they are Bspdcinlly qualified 'for theijol) or -hot, and- ih most cases the results will prove better than the expert would dare predict. , , For the human race seems to have an enormous capacity for getting along. Very few of its actions are distinguished by any very careful planning. There have always been' cur rents in human life to make the judicious wonder what'tlie world might be coming to, and there probably always will bo And yet, children have always been borne and reared- by parents who had no training at all for the task, and they have grown to manhood and womanhood in fairly good style, and life has gone on, somehow getting just a shade better and 'tore intelligent with each passing century. i And that, probably, is the way it will continue. A few foi tunate babies will- receive the expert care that the1 actress mentions; but the vast majority of youngsters will grow'up just as youngsters have always grown up. i FRANK KsELLOGG a Judge of the lyorld court of inter national justice. His labors for world amity, capping an extraordinary career in public service, promise to link his name in separably with the peace movement or tne period, winner or the Nobel peace prize for his work on the Kel- logg-Brlond pact renounclpg war, he declined to taice credit ior tne treaty, saying it 'was Arlstlde Brland of France who proposed the original plan. , ' . r Kellogg has a reputation in Wash ington of being one of the "friendli est" men that ever sat in the senate or a president's cabinet. .As secretary of state he maintained his -friendly personal contacts with senators. He knew everybody In that oittimes administration-Hostile body and frequently dropped In unex pectedly for lunch at the senate res taurant In the capltol. A man of deep religion feeling, he Impressed an assemblage in Paris when, after laying a wreath on the tomb of Prance's Unknown Soldier, he unexpectedly dropped on his knees and prayed for a few minutes. As secretary of state he worked quite differently from Charles Evans Hughes, who had everything on a case presented to him in the form of memoranda, which he would assem ble, digest and coordinate with amaz ing speed. Kellogg was much more deliberate and liked to talk things over with his associates. He enjoyed the personal touch. Golf was his great reviver. Fagged out after four or five days of inten sive work on a hard problem, he would spend a day on the links. After his battle with par he would return to his office, looking like a new man. He is enthusiastic about flying. On a recent trip to Panama he trav eled a great deal by air, returned to the capital and told of his experl- i ences with keen enthusiasm. A widower, he makes his home In 'Washington at a small hotel only a few yards from his office. He makes appointments as early as 7:30 o'clock In the morning. Frequently he is In I his office before that hour. His dry wit, etern appearance and solemn expression have made him one of tho most familiar figures on capl tol hill. &33S3S3S" Health i 1 l:; MAN'S ENEMIES . ; i I ,i A recent news item told of the importation of 10,000 biigs r from Peru for the purpose of attacking an insect pest which destroys sugar cane in Louisiana. Armies in virtually every estate are now girding themselves for another campaign against the invading insect hordes which make waste of tyto , billion dollars' worth of property in just a few months. ? j :: The bureau of entomology estimates that 34 kinds of bljgs can cause more damage in one growing season than several other kinds of catastrophes rolled into one. Every year moths ? dine upon goods worth over ton million dollars. . The spruce ' bud worm does damage to tho extent of seventy millions. The boll weevil in one season destroyed cotton valued at more than $160,000,000. Before man can claim the subjection of nature to his will he must find a moans of exterminating destructive insects. And the fight must go on unstintingly and unceasingly; to relax our vigilance even for a season might undo the work of a decado. VACATION BENEFITS Summer vacations have become fairly, well, established In our scheme of life. Practical experience has prov en them of value to both young and old. The growing child who spends a few weeks in the country grows bet ter for that experience. Tho factory worker who leaves be hind him for a time tho grind and turmoil of the work shop and goes camping or flBhlng, profits by tho change. And Industry has, .found va cations a good Investment. However, few among us give as much thought to our vacations as they deserve, and in consequence, we do i not always profit by them as much as we might; . The choice of the type, place and season for one's vacation deeply af fects the profit to be derived from it. . A mall carrier would probably not plan a hiking trip over tho country, nor would the driver ot n. trans-continental bus Ordinarily yearn tor ,(a motor Jaunt for recreation, '; : A wrong sort of vncatlon' is worse than none. Cartoonists have used the situation for poking fun at mankind. Numerous times they have shown a physical and nervous wreck being grcoted with the question "Oh I have you been In an accident?" only to have the wreck reply. "No, I'm Just back from my vacation." But how should one go about ar ranging for Just the right kind of vacutlon? Ideally, one ought to go to oiio's physician, for this advice. The vacation period Is a good time In which to correct tho small defects that wo may have, to gain weight, or to loso it, to Umber up flabby mus cles or to shed accumulated fatigue, to gather up the stimulus of social Intercourse, or to relax In solitude. An examination by Tine's physician, what Is now called a health examina tion, is a good basis upon which to determine the kind of vacation that will profit us moat.

Hack. Wilson, highest paid Cub regular outside of Manager Hornsby himself, has been temporarily benched because of his poor hitting.
