Doctor Grenfell of Labrador has
been spending a tew days In London
after three months' hard work in the
hospitals at the front He la greatly
impressed by the patience, courage,
3 d self-sacrificing spirit of the men,
d Is delighted with the wonderful
effldency of the hospitals and the
general arrangements for dealing
with the sick and wounded. He has
1 many stories to tell of the almost
- miraculous operations performed by
his brother surgeons.
- Doctor OrenfeU says it Is amusing
. to notice wbht a ridiculously small
thing wlU sometimes atop a bullet
He tells of one man who was shot
at when he was standing with his
hand on hts hip. The bullet went
right through his hand, making a
clean and easily healed wound. The
difficulty was to discover what had
..happened to It after It passed through
* the man's hand until someone dived
Into his trousers pocket There the
bullet was found loose, having been
stopped by some coppers.

The'franking machine by a single

taught the people of Germany that the
change Is entirely practicable. “The
postage stamp," concludes the Nach-

now obsolete. Germany has Invented
the franking system, and by develop

great service."
Would Abolish Stamps.

Practice loving everyone you meet,
being ready with a kind word or

measure the joy of those three days,
and you will never be willing to give
up the habit altogether. I do not mean
that we can easily attain to love of

to be won without the dust and heat

ALL WORKING PEOPLE
SHOULD CARRY INSURANCE
Twenty-five out of every 1,000 em
ployees In American industries ac
cording’to recent statistics are con
stantly incapacitated by sickness, the
average worker losing opproximately
nine days out of each year on this
account. This “non-effective rate"
for the great army of industrial work
ers in the United States barely sug
gests the total money loss to employ
ers and employees. The lessened ef
ficiency the effects of reduced earn
ings in times of sickness, as well as
the cost of medical attention, and the
economic loss from deaths, swell the
cost to industry and to the Nation to
almost incalculable figures.
That much of this loss is nothing
less than preventable waste and that
this waste can be largely reduced by
properly conducted system of gov
ernmental health insurance for wage
workers are conclusions set forth in
Public Health Bulletin No. 78, con
taining the resulta of study of “Health
Insurance—Its relations to the Pub
lic Health,” just issued by the United
States Public Health Service.'
The preventative value of health
insurance is given espeical emphasis
in' this study. “Any system of health
Insurance for the United States or
any State should at its inception have
prevention of icknes as one of its fun
damental purposes,’’ says the bulle
tin. “This country should profit by
the experience of European coun
tries where prevention is-being rec
ognized as the central idea necessary
to health, insurance if health insu
rance is to attain its greatest success
in improving the health and efficiency
of the industrial population.’
Such a system, It is pointed out in
the bulletin, would
1. Provide cash benefits and med
ical service for all wage-earners in
times of sickness at mnch less cost
than is now possible. Adequate med
ical relief would thus be placed with
in the reach of even the lowest paid
workers who are most subject to ill-
health.
2. Distribute' the cost ,mong em
ployers, employees, and the public as
the groups responsible for disease
causing conditions and afford these
groups a definite financial .incentive
for removing these conditions. This
can be done by means of small week
ly payments from employees, supple
mented by proportionate contribu
tions from employers and govern
ment at a rate reducible in propor
tion to the reduction of sickness.
3. Become an effective health
measure by linking the co-operative
efforts of the three responsible
groups with the work of National,
State and local health agencies, and
by utilizing these agencies in the ad
ministration of the health insurance
system.
4. Alford a better bads for a co
operation of the medical profession
with the public health agencies.
6. Eliminate the elements of pa
ternalism and charity-giving by mak
ing the employees and the public, as
well as employers, joint agents in the
control of this fund.
“A governmental system of health
insurance,” concludes the study, “can
be adapted to American conditions,
and when adapted will prove to be a
health measure of extraordinary val-
KEEP GOOD COWS OR NONE.
If you are going into the dairy bus
iness, buy good cows, even if you can
not get more than one for a starter.
It is better to have one good cow
than three poor ones, as it does not
take any more feed for a No. 1 than
for a hoarder, and you will or should
yet three times the butter fat, and
the difference in price does not cut
any figure when it comes to returns
on the investment
I will not keep a cow on the place
that will not produce over 200 pounds
butter , fat unless it is a heifer with
first calf. My cows now average
about 236 pounds butter fat a year,
end 1 am gradually bringing them up
to 300 pounds. I have several that
will produce more than that this year.
When 1 get them to 300 pounds, I
am going to set the record for 326
pounds, and then on up until I have
as good as can be raised. I have found
if you are going to accomplish any
thing worth while you have got to
set a mark and work to it, and stick
to It until you get there.
My cows have avenged me more
than *6 per head a month since De
cember 1, and I have been feeding
silage, with cotton seed meal and rice
I ran half and half as a grain ration.
1 pound of grin to each 3 pounds -of
milk produced. I teat my own cows
and keep a test on the cream, so I
know if I am getting paid.—E. M.

One warrant having been docketed in
this court improperly, was dismissed.

traband gave notice of appeal in each
case.
Arguments today were very li.v.ited
compared to yesterday, as the defense
did not argue the question of wheth

The militia force at Girard was re
duced of ten men tonight. The state’i
deputies will all be called in tomor

“AND LET HIS BEAUTY
BE UPON US”
To help make the world a little
more beautiful is not only a human
privilege, but ought to be regarded as
one of the highest expressions of the
religious spirit.
Consider the lillies,” urged the
Master, and then showed His love for
the beautiful things of earth; showed
with what appreciation He had watch
ed the bissioming colors about the
farm homes of Judea, by adding that
“Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these!”
To keep and beautify a garden
was the first task given to man; and
God who not only coven the summer
world with flowers and in autumn,
makes the whole world almost like
one huge bouquet but also gives US
the glory of sky and sunset and—
“Night, vast with her stare.”—He
muat also will that we should live
daily with eyes ever open for the
beauty with which He has sought to
surround us. Every really devout
soul must echo the prayer of Moses,
the man of God, in the wonderful
90th psalm: “Let Thy Work appear
upon Thy servants and Thy glory un
to their children. And let the beauty
of the Lord our God be upon us.”—
