So fre quently what we are inclined to look upon as' an advance turns out to^ be merely a revolution of the wheel, that it is sometimes discouraging. • One of the diet fallacies that may be counted -upon to appear every few years, is that doctrine that holda^ that there are certain food elements that of 21 and 55 are liable to road duty ^i>,mation ol^the appointinent of except those in military service, school, Parker, of North CaroRha, trustees, school teachers, ministers supreme court, “This issue- assumes' the impor- and stqdents.

Memoranda and statistics on the prevailing wage clause have been Sent to the appropriations committee in support of the administration’s po sition. President Roo.sevelt wants the work relief wage to be les.s than that paid for private employment so that the government wage, to quote from his annual message to copgress, will not be “so large as to encourage the re- jectlqp of opportunities for private empToyment or the leaving of private employment-to engage in government work.” or at the same mci^. 1 have never been sufficiently interested to keep up with the parti^lars set for by the little minds fesponsible for these fads; but innumerable people .seem to‘ pin the greatest faith to them—until sbme newer fad comes along and displaces them among the faddists" For instance, one holds that meats and bread must not be eaten together, irrespective of the time-honored com bination of meat and potatoes; anoth er, that starchy foods and fats must not be combined, which would rule out bread and butter from the healthy man’s diet. Any number of incompati- bles can be hitched up and forbidden; and the marvelous effects upon the health of the father of the fad point ed to in support of the validity of the theory that he followed. / ^ So far as I have been able to pM out; there is not'one scintilla o^ecien- tific evidence in support of one of these combination vagaries. Let’s for get them. Questions and Answers Dr. Richardson;''Cari y^wr^tell me any way* by which I can make my 16-ye§j'<^ld boy stand up straight? I talk and talk, but it doesn’t seem to db any good. Answer: If 1 did, I shouldn’t tell it to you* until I had tried it on some of my variously aged boys and girls. At least, you have leiimed one thing that many of us parents never do, seem to leam-t-whach is that .talking^ J ► and talking doesn’t seem to do any^o good. Dne^hing that helps enormously, I find, is to set children a good exam ple by assuming an irresproachable posture ourseIve.s. ..But tliat’s too much trouble? Of course it is. But •a at least it makes us sympathize with our boys and girls, who usually agree w|th us along that line. - ^ I once wrofte a book pn improving the, posture of little children through the playing of” games (“The School Child and His Posture). That is to say, I was a co-author of atich a book. I can say this much for it; it will not make a child hate the whole subject of good posture, as some more eminently scientiHc treatises may iU- iriost be counted, up<fe to do*”* If you can make a child reidly want to stand well,/all the rest it* simple matter. And as tberq aira miny dif ferent children^ so, i/kert ^are many different ways‘'^^i ipust be pursued if the resHk^s to be i attained I do iMeuring good poeture is utterly ^peless until ^ this desire is somehow inspired.
