VIRUS — Isolated
I Men of science are pretty
agreed that the common cold is caused,'
not by a germ, but by a virus which
is minute eiwugh to^iass through the
finest filter that can be made. Infan
tile paralysis, measles, yellow_ fevVr,
and smallpox are also believed to be
caused by a virus.
It is important news that Dr. W. M.
Stanley m the Rockefeller Institute of
Medical Research has succeeded in iso
lating a virus, something which no
body has ever seen before, ©ven
through the most powerful microscope.
He seems to have proved that these
disease-carrying vires are crystals of
protein, which have terrific power of
infecting any living organism into
which the}r enter. -
This seems io me another step, and
a long one, on the road of human pro
gress. The world is steadily becoming,
from day to day, a better and safer
place in which to live.

ALASKA'— Human Nature
A few weeks ago I remarked in this
column that I expected to hear of dis
satisfaction among the farm colonists
whom the government is undertaking
to settle in the Manpanuska valley in
Alaska. *1110 complaints have begun
to come in a little sooner than ex-
pecte<l.
I don’t pretend to know the rights
and wrongs of the situation, but I do
know that nobody, individual, corpor
ation or government, can do anything
for the benefit of any group of people
without becoming the target for criti
cism by a high proportion of the bene
ficiaries. !(, is human nature to be dis
satisfied.
I think everybody who has been
around enough to understand people
and their reactions must become con
vinced that the best service anyone
can render to most people is “to do
nothing for them, except to encourage
them to ^shift for jthemselves and . see
that nobody else tries to stop them
from going heir own way.s.

find honey, so a aupply of avrup is

SheW,
W.]C.
With all^^hildren of the orphanage
away on vacation, the campus now
presents a deserted, lonesome appear
ance. '
Under a new arrangement set up
this i^r for the first time, the entire
population is away on vacation at the
same time, with all cotiages closed.
About 260 of the boys hnd girls, to
gether with teachers and matrons, are
scattered tliroughout this - and oiher
states for their usual summer visit
with relatives ahd friends. About 60
of the children are at Riverside cot-
ti«e near here for an outing under
the supervision of Mrs. T. H. New-
kh*k, assisted Misses Helen Milam
and Jehn McKhe. The vacation season
at the institution will close the latter
part of August.
CLOCK — A Thrill
On the mantel in my farm home
an old clock has been ticking away
for more than 100 years. Like most old
Clocks there is a painted decoration on
the glass door that conceals the swing
ing pendulum. The colors are so faded
with age that I had never noticed, un
til I started to wind the clock the oth
er-day, just what this decoration con
sisted of. But asT glanced at it I saw
the words “The Constitution.” That
.set me to studying this ancient design.
ITie picture is 'of a scroll of paper
headed with the words “The Constitu
tion,” and partly concealing an Ameri
can flag, whose folds peek out froin
below the scroll. Across the fiddle of
the design are two hands clasped in
friendship, and a reproduction of the
old Roman fasces, the bundle, of rods
ti«d about the battle ax which was the
symbol of the unity of the Roman em
pire.
As I look at the clock from where
I am writing it gives me quite a pa
triotic thrill. One hundred years ago',
or whenever this old clock was made,
the Constitution of the United States
was a living ,vital thing in the con
sciousness of every American, some
thing OUT* forefathers' were proud of
and swore by. I hope it may always
retain its place as an object of popu
lar veneration.
