GETS TUB GLAD HAND Apparently the voters of his dis trict agreed with him. When the votes were counted In the primary McFadden had amassed some 4000 roore than had Mrs, Plnchot. But it was the reception accorded him informally on the floor of the house when he returned to Wash ington which probably meant the most to him. The house was meeting in night cession considering . the economy bill. McFadden appeared in the rear of tbe chamber and started down the center aisle. Someone saw him and let up a whoop. Others took it up on bOf-i sides. He took his seat first on the Re publican side, and then walked over to the democratic. Democrats on all sides grasped his hand. It became necessary to greet with both hands. His face . flushed and smiling in appreciation, he finally sat down and started the duties of a congress man Just where he had left off. er or a play, director to whom the child is drawn wm a once uuu temporarily fill the parent place but also will direct his attention back to the world, of wholesome, childisn in terests, a-..'

Saturday an airplane, after flying across the Atlantic ocean from Harbor Grace at times through storms and barely skimming the tops of the waves came to a landing at Culmore, in Northern Ireland, and a woman, Sirs. Amelia Earhart Putnam, stepped out mid the cheers of an astound ed world ! She was the first woman ever to conquer the Atlantic in solo flight; and the first woman to twice fly the ocean. Her first words when she alighted from the red and gold mono plane were: "I've done it!"

UNDAUNTED Not In the least outwardly re morseful, calmjy Inviting the house to investigate his charges, McFad den set out from. Washington to his little home town of Canton to open his campaign for re-election and vindication. Up and down the eight counties of his district he campaigned. Everywhere he told the voters that what he said on the floor of the house about the moratorium, he con sidered his duty. .opposing him was the wife of : Chats With I D" MAM 5 X dlClllS ft A PRECOCIOUS BOY By Alice Judsoiv Peale At 12 Robert has adopted a gallant flirtatious attitude toward his moth er's friends. He pays compliments, makes eyes at them and occasionally ventures what he believes to be a rl-jque remark. ' A thin, pale, tense child, his be havior is even more pathetic than It is unpleasant. The trouble with Robert is that nobody pays him any attention. He wants affection but feels himself to be far too grown up, too much the man, to ask for It In u natural, child ish way. He patterns himself on the men he has seen and tries to put himself over as It seems to htm that they do. He is simply a lonely little boy who has listened to too many adult conversa tions. What he really needs is more af fection frontalis mother. Interest and companionship from his father, plenty of lnt.restlng things to do and friends of his own age with whom he can play. But because no one takes the trouble to read, the signs of his be havior, to understand what he needs and help him to get it, he becomes daily a more unpleasant, unhappy little boy. This type of precocious behavior in boys and girls alike points usually to a lack of parental affection. Often the best solution where the parents for one reason or another seem un able to give their children the moth ering and fathering they need. Is to ii nd for them some substitute parent person.

It was in lana tna- Robert Koch revealed the cause iu the white plague. ' In the intervenine years we nave made much progress in the control of tuberculosis, a substantial amount it. its treatment and some progress in its prevention. We are, however, as yet without a remedy for this still widely prevalent disease. This fact merits strong emphasis, for, from time to time, charlatans, quacks and over-eager scientists start le the world with grossly premature announcements of a vaccine or serum cure for tuberculosis. To conquer a disease It Is not al ways necessary to find, a remedy for it.. Leprosy was largely conquered in Europe by the invocation of a strict quarantine and in the United States we have effectively conquered typhoid by adequate control of sewage dls posal and the sanitary control of our water supply Typhoid vaccination also has helped in eliminating typhoid as a major health problem. None of these measures, however, in any way constituted a remedy for a cure of typhoid. In recent years progress has been made in the prevention of tuberculosis. Our study of the nature of the tuberculosis germ and the manner in which it produces disease has : vealed to us the fact that before tuberculosis appears in its adult form where the lungs become involved in a destructive ulcerative process there Is a preliminary nonacilvc stage. In this stage of the disease the tuberculosis germ has Invaded the body and has set up a local reaction at the place where it landed, prin cipally in 'the lymph glands around the roots of the lung.

Whereas in 1879 the prisoners less than twenty years old in the city's three major prisons were nearly fourteen per cent of the total number, the average in recent years has dropied to approximately eight per cent. In 1880 the prisoners under 21 years old constituted nearly one-half of the city's prison population. During the past five years only alwut 33 per cent of the prisoners were under 2 1 years of age. Youthful criminals were also a problem in Philadelphia more than a century ago. Of the 501 male prison.

There is evidently no good reason for modern society to be criticized for the "sharp rise" in crimes by youths, for there has been no such rise. In many places there has been '"without cost to the taxpayer" but at an increased ccut. The project cannot therefore be Justified on either engineering or economical grounds and will be a waste of taxpayers' funds without re sultant benefit. Salem Capital Journal.
