Both oppose the -leasure but mer because they realize a state monopoly will restrict hard liquor sales and thus reduce liquor profits. The latter, because they believe it improper and immoral for a sovereign state to have anything to do with the liquor trade, whatever. Wl don't believe the people of the state will feel inclined to strongly support either contention. Certainly' there is no popular approval for allowing a revival of the hard liquor trade without rigid restrictions a lifting of the flood gates which would allow a return of all the abuses and profits of the old saloon. While greater sympathy may naturally be expected for those who dislike to see the state enter the liquor business, such an objection is after all purely a sentimental one, and can hardly be sustained, in the face of a sensible and realistic analysis. THHE inescapable truth is, that some agency MUST handle the hard liquor business, regardless of what system is chosen. The plain lesson of national prohibition was that prohibition did NOT prohibit. It merely placed the control of liquor in the hands of the underworld, the moonshiners and the bootleggers. It thus became not only a demoralizing social influence, but a financing system for organized crime. The old saloon system placed liquor control in the hands of the liquor interests. True, political control wsb ATTEMPTED, but it dismally failed. Throughout the country as a WHOLE, the liquor interests, not only eity councils, but in the larger law enforcement agencies. Isn't it far better for the welfare of the people, to have the state step in, take over the control of liquor ITSELF; sweep away the bootlegger and moonshiner, on one hand or TRY to and render impossible the dictatorship of the liquor interests on the other t It seems so to us.

A good one la a aolutlon of photographer's fixing agent, , sodium hyposulphite (thloeulphate) 10 per cent strength. This has been used In a similar way to prevent spread of the Itch In baths. pools, gymnasiums. In the Buffalo schools the pans or wells are refilled with 1 per cent so lutlon of sodium hypochlorite every two days, at a cost of about 17 cents. In the past three years the prevalence of the ringworm among school and college students In Buffalo has drop ped 50 per cent under such prophy laxis. The Buffalo Investigators observe that It la fairly easy to employ auch a means of prevention in schools and colleges, but It la hard to make it efectlve In golf clubs and the like, where the locker boy takes the foot bath as a Joke and allows It to go unchanged for weeks. They believe no public bath or gymnasium entail ing the common use of runways, shower baths or dressing rooms. should be allowed to operate without adequate provision for prophylaxis of ringworm of the ftset. Here I offer the reader thla Indi vidual suggestion: Alwaya carry your own slippers and never atep bare foot on any surface where someone else has stepped before you. Even In a hotel bedroom, never walk across the floor barefoot. The wearing of wool socks favors foot Itch.

YN seeking as answer to that ques- tlon, we can only look Into the past. Looking Into the past, we discover that no nation YET has been able to provide TUST ENOUGH Inflation.

York town Area. Four camps are located In the York town, Va., area, where George Wash ington led the American troops Into what proved to be the deciding and final battle of the Revolution, In 1781. Two camps are at Morrlatown, N. J., an area used by Washington troops every winter during the hectic years from 1775 to 1781. Four hundred men are "at work In the Gettysburg National Military park in Pennsylvania, the scene of Abra ham Lincoln's Immortal speech In 1863, while the Chlckamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park In Georgia and Tennessee, which com memorates famed Civil War battles, has some 600 additional men working on It. Other groups of CCC work ers are situated at Shlloh, Tenn., Vlcksburg, Miss., and Fredricksburg and Spotysylvanla counties In Vir ginia, all places well known to those at all familiar with the history of the United States. The men are engaged In general rehabilitation of the spots, cleaning away fire hazards, removing vegeta tion that hides trenches, earthworks, gun emplacements and other mili tary services, and In laying out con venient trails by which visitors may easily find their way around the en tire battle fields. Restoration Not Planned. The Interlar Department's office of national parks, buildings and reserva tions, which has charge of the work, doea not Intend to even attempt to make complete restorations of the historical spots. Where any old for tifications or other landmarks still are standing, they will be restored In a certain degree so that they, at least, will not decay or rot. On the other hand, where none of the origi nal objects are left, the authorities will not try to bring In lmltatlona simply to make It look real. "When the plans laid out by the office of national parks and exe cuted by emergency conservation la bor are In operation," said Fechner, "these great historic areas will be come field laboratories for students of history In every school In the land. Millions whose school days are over or for whom they ended all too soon will vllt these areas to refresh and add to their knowledge of the sacri fices and suffering in which this great nation was born and achieved emi nence In a little more than three cen turies."
