A SYMI'OSir.W of exports liits lieen culled to meet Xow Ypht'h day to find out what 's wrontr with the world. That soniuthiiiVi is wronf; everyone agrees. Hut rcfjardini; the pre cise cause of the trouble, there is no such ununimity. As a KiiifKCMtioii ti the symposium we herewith jiro)ose a politi cal iiioratoriinn for ten years. When an individiuil suffers from indigestion the wise physician examines the eustomnry diet, nnd then tries to determine the cause hy a procesR of elimination. If the victim for example has had a weakni'ss for stronjr coffee, strong coffee is eliminated, and if im provement follow strong coffee is acknowledged to he the cause. AVhy not adopt the same method for the suffering Cosmos. Mr. Cosmos for some time ltas been subsisting upon u diet in which poli tics has formed an important part. AVhy not cut out the polities en tirely and see if immediate improvement does not follow? In our judgment improvement would certainly follow.. Most of our ills at home and abroad are the result of politics.. Take England at the present moment, for example.- Most thoughtful people agree that a close-working union between '.he two great Knglish speaking nations, (ireat Britain and the United States is essential to save the world from disaster. The recent visit of Lloyd George was a step in the direction of such a consummation. Itiit what is our versatile ex-Premier doing at the present moment ? lie is engaged in a political campaign and instead-of contributing to a better Anglo-American understanding he is trying to make po litical capital out it( the fact that Premier IJaldwin funded the British debt to America. i In other words Lloyd fleorge is picking pin feathers from the Eagle's tail, in the hope of getting a few more votes for the Liberal party. Bad business! Put that is typical of most political campaigns. If politics could be shelved for a decade, if the chance of getting politi cal oliicc coulil be eliminated entirely throughout the world, what an iportunity there would be to return to normalcy and get the cosmic digestion to bitting on all six cylinders again.

Ponder this, my chil dren. You've no idea how wise and sagacious It Ih. Pneumonia is called the Captain of the Men of Death. Tuberculosis must be the major for It ranks pneu ' monia in the mor tality statistics. But pneumonia destroys more lives than any other disease, so wo do . not oues- tion its captaincy. Pneumonia is somet i mes cal led the friend of the aged, because It takes them off with a short, not very"palm.ul Illness, sparing them the cold nidations of decay. We hope we shall never live to see the day when pneumonia will be our friend. We want to go with our boots and harness on, not tucked in bed, dozing gently away between two days. In the aged pneumonia often de velops insidiously. No chill, no no ticeable cough, no complaint of pain, Just a desire to go to bed, or an in creasing prostration. . Often no fe verish ness. And all in a few hours or a day or two comes the silent end. Many a death certificate is signed "heart failure' when in truth pneu monia is tho final illness. Peoplo most shut up Indoors In nice warm places where there are no drafts are most susceptible to pneu monia and all other respiratory ail ments. Crowding is a strong predis posing cause, as Xr. Clorgas demon strated when he investigated and stopped epidemics of pneumonia among Panama .canal laborers and later among laborers on tho Rand In South Africa. Pneumonia, like all respiratory diseases, is n warm air disease arti ficially warmed air. The warmer ycu keep your cave, your enclosure house, office shop, car, theater or what not tho better the soil and the larger your chance of picking up! a virulent colony of pneumeeoccl. Cool, fresh air discourages the mi gration of the "cold" germs. Warm ulr favors It. A chill or chilliness commonly an nounces tho onset of pneumonia or any other respiratory Infection, even a coryzn, I But don't be fooled by the chill, Don't bo a fishwife. Use your brain. The chill is a symptom, and a favorable one, at that, not a cause of the illness. By the time you le gln to chatter you have got It or It has got you, and It is to6 late to pre vent the illness. You are infected, and the chill Is the sign that your blood is mobilizing at the seat of In vasion to defend you. It is the con vulsion of war, and if you happen to be n child It is probably a real con vulsion Instead of a chill. Out side of fresh air which means nlr never allowed to rise above tiS degrees Fahrenheit the most effec tive preventa'tivo of pneumonia is a hyglenlcnlly clean mouth. in opinion the dentist prevents more pneumonia than any other health official.

' COMMUNICATIONS ' '' Aid for German Chllilrcn To the Editor: Since we announced the organization of the Amerlenn Committee for Relief of German Chil dren, we have received telegrams, let ters and newspaper edltorlnls from all parts of tho United States endors ing this emergency appeal to all Americans. I accepted the chairmanship of this representative American committee because my experience as head of the American representation on the Rlilnn for four years and my observations during a recent visit to Germany con vince me that starvation faces Ger many's undernourished children this winter. . Under these conditions it seemed imperative for me to act. This committee will make a nation- wide appeal for funds and the Amer ican Society of Friends (Quakers) will have exclusive charge of the feed ing. e As there Is such keen interest thru out the United States in this under taking we should be glad to give any local committee, the fullest informa tion in regard to the need in Germany nnd our program for this humani tarian work.

I mean the sort of girl who is a "nice" gold digger. The "nice" gold dig ger would faint if a c c U s e d of bartering a kiss for a five dollar bill, but the same girl will often ca pitulate to a pair of silk stockings or a bid to a good play or a lavishly expensive dinner. Not that they mean any harm. But the "nice' gold digger hasn't much chance to attain happinoss when she goes into the business of being Invit ing and Interesting for what there is r in it for her. Such .girls are Invari-. I ably "on the market.' for a new beau. I To the ordinary man, a gold digger is a gold digger. He doesn't make tho "nice" distinction that many a nice gold digger likes To apply to her jself. A man reckons the weekly cx Ipenditurvs for candy and flowers nnd 'tnxtcabs and theatres and dinners nnd , luncheons even If he does spend ! nvlth n magnificent gesture of disdain for the consequences.
