A NEW IDEA OP MAY DAY. o .. ... . i l 1 .1 P --..l TV.. Tl. .. .1, If T la sometimes bettor to go uacicwgru mini iumra. nuuuy, i" IgL first o May, is Child-IIeultli Day, for example. Instead of dedi cating the d.fy to bomb throwiiij,', protest strikes and red flag pa rades, the American Educational Food Council has chosen the day to open an attack upon America's high infant mortality rate. Old fashioned May-Day dances are advocated, and talks onJiet and per sonal hygiene are urged. From the .standpoint of the Pink Intellectuals this is reaction of the rankest sort. . They maintain that better food for babies will re sult in weakening tho human race. For the weaker infants will survive, when for tho good of the race they should die. Fur bet ter to sing the Internationale and take another Ktep toward the Dictatorship of the Proletariat! The new view is the old one. May Day is regarded as the open ing of spring and summer, a day for joy and gladness, more har mony and less friction, of spring flowers and bright ribbons, freshly scrubbed faces and better food. ' . And the old view is the better one. The tots who are now kicking the slats of their cribs and the youngsters who are looking forward hopefully to the closing of school arc after all the presi dents secretaries, senators and teachers of 19G0. If we imperil their iuture, it seems fairly plain that we imperil our national future. .Secretary' Hoover who heads the American Child Health asso ciation dramatizes this truth as follows: "Merchants lose loss than one per rent throutth bad debts, which arc tho hazards of business. But humanity loses nearly olKht per cent uf itu Breatest capital, children, through tho hazards of Illness." , ' , , Disease and death in tho child life o America are appaling. Every year around 4U0,()00 graves become the last resting places of children under ten years of age, a wasteful tragedy, for many of them with proper care, could be saved. Such care depends upon parents, and tho big job for the first of May, therefore, is to interest the parents and start them on the road of health education. Education of this sort is easy to procure for the facilities are in Medford and every other district of the state, the only thing neces sary is interest. , . With the decline of May Day as a day of economic disruption, the time is opportune for the inauguration of May First as a day of physical reconstruction. This may be reaction from the standpoint of the ultra modern intellectual, but it is 'the sort of reaction the world needs. QUILL POINTS The world was built in seven days. 'And without' a slogan. All climates descend to a common level on a rainy day. In the beginning all was perfect. There was a garden, but no hoc. It looks Hap Homebody would get bit yet in tho bouuoIuouho controversy.

A carpet munt bo pounded until tho neighbor lady nulls doing the same, or the attacking force drops from exhaustion, Tho chief terror of houNoeleanlng la the IiihIk tenco of the coinmnndlng officer, that tho window, or tho carpet, or the stove pipe be put;! fled, Indefinitely; after It is scl-niifi:(illy spotless. These observations are made on tho expert testimony of a .prominent brute, who alleges that he hnu been washing the same bedroom window for three dnys. and bus glvn up hope of ever doln a satisfactory job. Often it seems that the fog of smoke isn't the only one that troubles an uftcr-dimiur speaker. t 1 ki-:k a iiowm'oi'H (.MnrshrioUl News) A. A.

Anawcr-i-I have often thought that tho army medical corps or the public health service ought to put a damper on that pathetic picture of the young recruit paring potatoes as his intro duction to K. I'. If potatoes aro fit to eat ut all they are fit to eat with their jackets on. Don't peel another tipud. liake 'em. Let everybody cat skins and all, or the over nourished members of the family may eat only the skins. That's the way to get the full value of the vitamin, the mineral salts and the natural roughage. If potatoes are peeled and cooked in water, the potato water should be used for soup, not thrown away, for that is sinful waste.

J AM ICS JKKICIN fell a parasnng wliilc he was nailing shingles; he landed with a frightful bang that jarred the distant dingles. I called upon hint with a pio and eke a toasted chick en; "Such stimulants as these," thought I, "will mako his life blood quicken." All swathed and bandaged on his bed, a strick en sight, 1 found him with poultices upon his head, and plaster casts around him. "Now, by the rood, it grieves me sore," I said, "to see you stricken; I've brought you, from my ample store, a custard pio and chicken. It surely is a fearful thing that you, as tough as leather, should have tho sawbones come with string to tie your joints together; yon were so hale, so stout and strong, so blithe and fresh and merry; and now the leech, lie comes along, and the apothecary." And, lying prone upon his back, he said, that cheerful duffer, "I'm thankful that I own the shack in which Fin' billed to suffer! Here I may languish, sick and sore, as long as it seems funny, nnd not a landlord to my door will come, demanding money. Kach day sne people full from roofs upoh u heap of boulders, and dislo cate a lot of hoofs nnd collarbones und shoulders. AnJ many live in rented homes, with landlords grim encroaching, and oh, the anguish in their domes when rent day is approaching! What t liiiuuh my radiator's bent, the paint rubbed off my fenders? This house is mine, I pay no rent what blithe tlnugli0cu ccndi'ts!" e Insist that sho uhould retire at 10 o'clock, even, if shu does not complete her studies. What is your opinion? ' it is not n question of her rushinK through colleio to earn her own liv Iub.. . Very truly yours. 11. P .A. A healthy normal Kirl in her early teens oughtto close her schoolboonk with a banc at 1(1 o'clock, nt tho very latest, and mako a running divo into tho hny. which sho should hit hard for a nine hour non-stop run. ISut that is not nil. Instead of cpm plaiiihiK to each other and the rucks and rills about the homo work evil, parunts ought to use their influence to ciimlnato from the. schools the plnguo of class c pedagogues and employ a reasonable number of teachers who can qualify in class A or II. Of course this weeding out process, must em brace the htgherups as well. The teachers are not wholly to blame for tho homo work abuse they plead that the schedules laid down by tho politicians of the state department call for so many hours of this dam phoolishness for every pupil. We must amputate at the neck in order to Insure the elimination of tho dis ease. A girl In her early teens should have no stint of study laid down for her out of regular school hours. That sort of abuse seriously interferes with tho proper education nnd -training of the potential mothers of the race. If such a. girl puts I nfivo hours at school In a day. she has certainly gone the limit of endurance for a normal girl unless the school hours, have beon frittered away with some such' noncense us class O pedagogues like to Indulge in. The girl's time out of school should be devoted wholly to her music or other private study: to play, recreation, di version; nnd. most important of all. to helping mother, or in other words, learning the rudiments of homo keep ing. This last named, culture hns tho cordial contempt of all class C peda gogues and alleged "educators" in pol itics, lint any sensible mother knows and 1 hope even nn occasional father can comprehend that there is nothing a girl can learn in school that deserves serious consideration as opposed to the art of home culture.
