M.D. AN OLD-FASHIONED LETTER Somehow I feel like writing you an old-fashioned epistle this glor ious morning. Mind you, I’m not asking you to agree with every thing I say; while I feel absolutely sure I’m telling the truth, it does not mean that I am doing so; when you simmer a thing down to a solid base, the wisest of us may be telling the exact opposite—“there’s nothing true, but heaven.” • The pig is the healthiest animal I know of, taken as an individual species; I never heard of the hog being a tuberculosis-carrier. He dies of cholera—an epidemic disease. But, the hog has fewer diseases in his family than any other farm animal. The best pepsin comes from the peerless digestive tract of the pig! There are many, very many today, especially among our younger women, that throw up their hands in holy horror, if somebody men tions pork as an article of food! These individuals, if you look at them critically, are anaemic, thin-skinned, feeble-fingered, and aerv- r»us. You will find nine out of ten of them eat beef, if they have not already abandoned meats at the command of the faddists, and they are slowly paving the way for tuberculosis, or other serious disease— by lowering bodily resistance. I have seen the western farmer in pioneer days, eat cured ham and bacon all his life—remain in good working trim until too old,—and die of sheer old age. And I have seen the great army of weaklings develop right along with the advent of fresh beef, and its being almost forced upon people by physicians, who themselves have acquired ura emic poison and blood-pressure and tuberculosis, following the fresh beef fad. I may close this old-time message with the point I have in mind: There is no better strength-building, blood-making, body protecting food than well-cured bacon and ham! And, everybody who toils knows this. And everybody ought to toil for the earning of honest bread and meat. Now, turn up your nose if you must. WANTED: TEACHERS OF HUMOR I once had some correspondence with the alumnae secretary of a woman’s college, an estimable lady seeking to raise more money for her institution, which it well deserves. Our letters developed quite an interesting exchange of ideas on edu cation, until I made the mistake of sending this comment: “I am a believer in women’s colleges, and I think they receive much less than their rightful share of legacies and gifts. But I sometimes think they have pushed their scholastic standards too high, and are applying the too rigorously. Two of the most successful and attrac tive middle aged women of my acquaintance are college graduates. They have been a source of pride and service to their alma mater. Yet, if the present standards had been in force in their day. and had been as arbitrarily applied, both of them would have been thrown out of college at the end of their first semester. They were poor students, but they are great women.” • I added rathqr facetiously: “After all, a majority of college girls are going to enter the profession of matrimony. My idea of a college program would be to teach them to look after their health, cultivate their sense of humor, and then add whatever amount of book learning they could absorb without spoiling their good looks.” This stopped the correspondence. The lady regarded me as lacking in seriousness, and wrote to me no more. Yet I have the temerity to publish the comment, and to add this firm conviction: that the world does not need more knowledge as much t as it needs more humor. Do you remember the famous session of the Cabinet at which Abra ham Lincoln presented the Emancipation Proclamation? He preceded* it by reading one of the humorous essays of Artemus Ward. He laughed until the tears came and then, looking around at his associates and finding them all solemn, he exclaimed': B * “Gentlemen, why don’t you laugh? With the fearful strain that is upon me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die; and you need this medicine as much as I.” Do you recall the passage from Stevenson in which he points out that it is* the little differences, not the bg issues, on which marriages are wrecked? To look across the table and see a blank expression on your wife’s face, when you are convulsed with laughter—that, he says, is a test that few marriages can stand. I was in Mexico with Ambassador Morrow when Will Rogers arrived. I saw how wonderfully his humor disarmed the suspicions of the Mexi can officials and opened the way for all the good work that the Am bassador did later. Having all this in mind, I offer two constructive suggestions: 1. That the President make the following appointments: Ambassador to England, Will Rogers; Ambassador to Germany. Bugs Baer; Am bassador to France, Irvin S. Cobb. 2. And that John D. Rockefeller or Edward Harkness establish and endow at each leading college a Professorship in Humor.
