A render write that at a recent
meetlnpr of the trustees of the coun
try, schools .in his county in Idaho
Homo one spoke earnestly about a
certain kind of ventilation equip
ment and uracil 'its installation in
the fichonls, The reader asked, the
speaker if she had over heard of
Dr. llrady and she squelched the
render by replying that Dr. llrady
waA not taken seriously by phy
sicians in good standing.
Some of the medical brethren
will be delighted with this. Trouble
is some of them take me much loo
seriously.
The presentative of the ventila
tion equipment people was well
coached for her job. She backed
her recommendation up with a
-statement of evidence to support
her contention. The Idaho reader
kindly sends along tho statement,
nnd it is bo ood I vlh we could
print it in full, but we must be
content to quote tho gist of it. It
purports to be matter quoted from
various textbooks on heating and
ventilation though in spots the
quotation murks are missing', so
that one suspects the ventilation
merchants are working a few fine
Italian ideas of their own off on
the mucker. Anyway the high point
of the evidence souns to be this
quaint assertion:
"Impurities exist in the ail
in proportion to the amount of
carbon dioxide present in an
atmosphere vitiated by respiration."

This was a theory of our great
grandfathers. Xo health author
ity today imagines the proportion
of carbon dioxide in the air of a
Hchoolroom or other room hns any
particular bearing on the foulness
or freshness of the air. Only a
coached salesman for some such
superfluous and extravagant gad
get would have the cheek to im
pose on even the school board that
way today.
In .Now York CIty the politicians
have at last been constrained to
acknowledge the common sense of
n a t u ra t von t i la t ion t h is, opening
windows enough to ventilate every
room nnd that is why the very
costly ventilation installations were
junked there three years ago.
I sftpposo the drummers for the
dewdads have taken to the sticks
lately and consequently the coun
try scltol boards are threshing the
old question all over again much
to the amusement of the conceited
asses who generally run country
school boards and the expense of
the people. 'Where they have to
squander the school funds on these
funny tricks, the teacher; and
others employed in the schools
have to accept minimum pay for
their services, but the tenchers.
janitors nnd others who stand hack
while the ventilation racketeers
grab - the easy montty may take
sm-h consolation as tfliere is in
tho thought that they are at least
protected against the perils of to
much carbonic acid gas in the air

RIDICULING FEAR
By Alice Judson Peale
Even jn this day of comparative
enlightenment, thero are still many
parents who believe that the best
way to make a child overcome his
fears is to laugh them away.
They are perhaps deceived be
cause this . method frequently
makes a child behave as if he were
not afraid. A little sympathetic in
sight would reveal, however, that
he has only hidden his tear be
cause of the even greater fear of
being laughed at.
This suppression of tear is cr
peeially liuriful. When crowded
below the suriace,-it influences the
child's conduct not only in relution
to the particular situation which
nriginully caused it, but in relation '
to ull those in any way associated
with it.
Thus bis whole personality may
become, colored with the fear ele
ment. .Addtul to thin is a feeling of
shame und inferiority caused by
being made the subject of ridicule.
One cannot laugh a child's fear
out of him.. One can only make him
ashamed to. show it. One has not
cured him of this fear, but made
him feel inferior. His self-esteem
has been hurt, , and his self-confidence
Impaired.
The parent who finds himself
using this method may well ex
amine his own motives. He will be
Ktirnrised to find that behind them
is usually nothing more worthy I
than the urge to-make his child i
the scapegoat tor some of his own!
difficulties. It is often the parent!
who is himself not too courageous
who makes fun of his child's tim
idities. Because his own parents were
harsh and tactless lie may vent
upon his child, in the form of ridi
cule, the pent-up aggressiveness
which in his own childhood he was
unable to express toward those in
authority. w

FROG HOLLOW
By Mury Gralmm Bom nor.
Peggy: and John lived not;' far
from Frog Hollow, a small section
of marshy land. Tall ferns grew
there and nearby i
were many shrubs !
nnd bushes of all I
kinds.
In the winter
time the brook!
running . thru the I
place was covered j
with a thin coat
ing of ice, but in I
tho spring It bub
bled nnd sang so E
cheerily ns It took j
its short journey
to the small pond
nt its end.
"I've turned the time .back .al
most two years nnd we're going to
Frog Hotlow,' began tho Little
Black Clock.'
"I've nlwnys liked Frog Hollow"
John said. "It always seems as
though I had gone ont of tho world
when I went there."
"Yes," Peggy went on happily,
for she, too had always liked Frog
Hollow, "the first shrubs and blos
soms nlwnys come out there. In
the summer there are wonderful
pond lilies, and you enn .always
see or hear some frogs."
"I guess that is why It Is called
Frog Hollow,'' John remnrked.
Tho Little Blnck Clock led tho
children to Frog Hollow, There
were some frogs ihero. . blinking
their eyes, eating bugs and croak-,
ing about the weather, the Hollow,
the brook, the pond, their family
history nnd many other subjects.
But tho Little Black Clock first
took them to the pond and there
they saw some little dark crea
tures living In great moulds of
jelly. They were really nothing
but eggs and the soft jelly. in which
they were living, or sleeping was
attached to the twig of a shrub.
As the children watched, -aim
Clock turned the time ahead nnd
they saw these eggs, change Into
tadpoles.
"And now," said the Little Black
Clock. "I'll turn the tlrm Ahead to
see how these tadpolefl change
their name and looks.
"I've turned it ahead two years
do you see?"
And the children saw that the
tadpoles had changed, Into green
frogs!
