N SCOTLAND New Year’s
day has even more Impor
tance than Christmas. High
land laddies- form proces
sions and go from-house to
house singing, and recelv-
ing food and gifts. From Scotland
also comes the curious superstition
that it is. unlucky to take anything
out of the house bn Neyz Year’s day
before one has brought something In;
hence members of the family may be
seen carrying a piece of Coal or any
small, object into the house, to prevent
misfortune daring the new year.

A quaint New Year custom in Her-
fordshire, England, is to weave black
thorn into a crown, singe it slightly
over a fire and stand around It repeat
ing the words, “Old Cider.” The
crown is then hung up for luck during
the year.

The wassail bowl or loving cup,

In England December 20 was the
New Year's day until the time of Wil
liam the Conqueror. His coronation
ocenrred January 1, hence the year
was ordered to begin on that duy,
England, however, gradually fell Into
unison with the rest of Christendom,
and began the year the 25th of March,
The Gregorian calendar restored Jan
uary 1 as the gateway of the year but
it was not until 1752 that England
adopted this date.

said Pinky Pig,
"Grunt, grunt, grunt," said
Porky Pig.
"It’s tlie best thing I ever
heurd of," said Brother
Bacon.
"It most certainly is," said
Sammy Sausage.
"1’vO never heurd of anything so
nice," said Master Pinky Pig.
And his mother added,
"It’s fine, squeal, squeal, It’s fine."
"I agree," said Miss Ham. And she
grunted five times, one grunt after the
other to show that she agreed.
"What are you all talking about?"
asked Ited Top, the rooster.
"You dou’t know?" asked all the
pigs.
Oh yes, I know," said Red Top,
erowlng proudly.
“Then why did you ask ?” Inquired
Brother Bacon.
You haven’t much sense," satd R»d
Top. "Of course I don’t know, or I
wouldn’t have asked.”
“Well did I ever,” grunted Miss
Ham. "You said one moment ago that
yon did know and now you say ,vou
don’t know. Which do you mean? Do
you know what we-were talking about
or don’t you?"
"Yes," said Sammy Sausage, "that-is
what we would like to' know."
"Well," said Bed Top, "I don’t know,
and if I had I wouldn't have asked
you. When I said I knew I thought
you all' liud sense enough to know that
I was joking. It
seems that none
o* you. can take a
Joke.’’
“Take a joke,"
repeated Brother
Bacon, “You say
that none of us
can take a joke.
Well, wny should
we? A Juke lsm’t
anything t.o eat.
What would we
be doing with a
Joke I’d like to
know.”
"Yes,” said
Porky Pig, "we'd
all like to know wliut we would do
with a Joke."
And all The pigs Bqnealed.
"We'd like to know what we could
do if we took a Joke. It's nothing
to eat so why should, we take It?"
Red Top the rooster clucked and
crowed and grinned.
“This Is the best Joke."
"What do we care about it being
tlie best Joke?" asked Brother Bacon.
“We've Rlrendy told you we didn’t
care ubotit a joke because It was noth
lng to eut. We don't care whether It
Is a best one or not. Now If you
wure talking ubout a best dish of food
—that would be different.”
"Yes, that would be quite different,"
gquculed the other pigs.
"I was wrong," said Rod Top grin
ning. "Of course you have no wish
to take a joke because it Is nothing
to eat. I meant, of course, that it
was a Joke when I pretended 1 knew
what you were talking about just
after I had asked you that question,
I wouldn’t have asked you if I had
known, ag I have said before: And
I wouldn’t have bothered to have had
a lltle Joke with you if I had thought'
that you didn’t care about Joking. In
fact you care about nothing but eat
ing.”
All the pigs grinned and twisted
their .little tails.
“We show we’re regular pigs,” said
Brotlter Bacon.
“We’ll forget,’about Jokes and Jok
ing then," said Red' Top. “Tell me
what 5'ou were talking about. I would

That's the truth.
And that’s not

"We were talk

Miss Ham.
“What is such
a good thing?"
asked Red Top,
“This Idea of

Ham. “You see
we heard that
every year around
this time folks and creatures began
making good resolutions. And we've
made ours. We think they're fine and
we hope to live up to them."
“That's good,” said Red Top. “But
what are your resolution's?" he asked
after a moment.
“To get all we can to- eat, each of

IS SOMETHING WRONG?
Thirty-Two Thousand Eloht Hundred
And Forty-Throe Die,
A rqcent study mntle by the Bureau
Df Vital Statistics of the Georgia Stale
Board of Health of percentages of
death .In certain ago periods has
brought out the following Interesting
and astonishing facts:
There were 32,843 deaths In Geor
gia last year, 419 of these were deaths
from typhoid and of theBe 18.3% wore
of children 1-0 years old, Mularlu
caused 550 deaths, the highest per cent
in the series, 31.1% being In the 1-B
age group. Of the 3(13 deaths from
whooping cough, 98.7% were in the
1-9 year group; of the 41)8 diphtheria
doutlis 96.4% were In this period; of
the 2,6-13 deaths from tuberculosis,
3.2% were In the period; 1,6% of the
482 pellagra deaths occcurreJ in chil
dren under nine yours old; even the
1,262 deaths from cancer had o .(1%
Incidence in this age group. Tho fig
ures that show the most criminal neg
ligence (since the simplest protection
on the part of the parent would avoid
most of them), are those showing lliut
deaths from accidents gtvo 26.9%, the
highest percentage of all, to children
from 1-9 years of age.
1b something wrong? With the ago
period 1-9 ropAisentod by percent uges,
—and high percentages,—of ueaths un
der every heading, the only conclusion
that can be drawn is, that we are noi
considering our children the "nation's
beBt asset" nor yet are we giving much
consideration to the future, if the "liqpo
of the future" Is allowed to be sub
ject to conditions so ruinous. There
is something wrong; something wrong
with the nation, utate, county, city,
community, school or home; something
wrong with the child's food, his clothes,
his reBt, or care. The Division of
Child Hygiene, State Board of Health,
will help you solve the problem of
what you and youF community can do
for your child. '
