The First Concern.
SUNSHINE AND VITAMINS.
Rochester, Minn.,—The secret of
health—sunlight and vitamins,
Dr. Charles Sheard, eminent Mayo
Clinic specialist, said in one of his
public health lectures:
“Many of our present day problems
of growth and nutrition are found to
be quite largely questions of deficien-
cies in the accessory food factors—
sunshine and vitamins,” said Dr.
Sheard.
“When primitive men wrestled with
nature and on bended knee and with
exposed body worshipped the sun as
the giver of health and life, he lived
much closer to Mother Nature than
does the ingenious superman of to-
day, who lets his machinery do the
toiling for him. Man now houses
himself in the winter in poorly venti-
lated and often overheated and mois-
tureless mansions: loads his table
with devitaminized food and compla-
cently seats himself behind the trans-
parent sands of the window pane
which robs him of the health-giving
rays of the sunlight.
We need to get out of doors a
reasonable portion of every day to
get our vitamin D, lapping it out of
the sunshine as it strikes the ex-
posed portions of our bodies, drink
fresh milk and eat fresh vegetables
and fruits in order to obtain our
needed quotas of vitamines A. B. and
The following practical rules were
submitted by Dr. Sheard:
1. Eat a balanced diet; eat enough
of it but not too much. Don’t let
your palate be your guide. The vis-
ible essentials are proteins, fats, car-
bohydrates and minerals. Excess of
protein, such as meat, is a eommon
fault among modern eaters. Mini-
mize the fats in warm weather and
give them greater prominence in win-
ter.
Carbohyrdates are found chiefly in
bread, potatoes, cereals and sugar. A
pound of carbohydrates is an average
diet for a person doing light work—
but don’t take it in the form of a
pound of candy.
IRON AND LIME.
Get your iron and lime—but not
through the medium of patent med-
icines. Spinach and raisins are rich
in iron, lime and phosphorous are
found in certain green vegetables,
egg yolk, milk, cheese and fish. Get
your “roughage” through the coarse,
woody fibres possessed by many
fruits and vegetables.
2. Eat vitamins. This can be done
through the inclusion in the diet
of green vegetables, such as lettuce,
spinach, etc. citrus fruits, such as or-
anges, and common articles of food, |
as milk and eggs. Eat the green leaf |
of the salad, even though you commit
a social error.
3 Drink fresh milk. It contains a
little of everything, and much of the
many things that are good for the
body.
4. Drink in the outdoor sunshine.
This is the only natural source of
Vitamin D. Expectant mothers and
growing children need it greatly. In
fact, everything needs it.
Mistaken Identity.
President. Coolidge, Henry Ford!
and Harvey Firestone were standing
on the sidewalk in Washington dis-
cussing some topic of interest when
their attention was attracted to a
young man parking a Ford car
equipped with Firestone tires at the
curb near where they were standing.
‘Stepping up to the young man Mr.
Firestone asked him:
“How do you like Firestone tires?”
The young man answered in the
affirmative and Mr. Firestone re-
marked, “Well, I think they are pret-
ty good too, because you see I am
the man who makes them.”
Mr. Ford asked a few questions
about the car itself and when the
young man assured him that to date
he had had no difficulty, Mr. Ford
remarked:
“It is a very good car and you will
like it because I know, I am the man
who made it.”
This was too much for the owner
of the Ford.
“Say,” he burst out, “what you
guys tryin’ to hand me? First thing
I know that little shrimp wid youse’ll
be tellin’ me he’s President of the
United States.
U. S. Producing 30 P. C. of World's
Rayon Supply.
Out of a total production of rayon
for this year estimated at 250,500,00C
pounds, approximately 30 per cent
was produced in this country, accord-
ing to the Index, published by the
New York Trust company.
The expansion of world production
of rayon has been stimulated mainly
by American demand. In 1913 the
United States consumed 2,700,000
pounds, of which 59 per cent was im-
ported. In 1927 the total consump-
tion in this country was 75,000,000
pounds, of which 13.6 per cent was
imported.
An important factor in the produc-
tion of rayon is that it can not be
manufactured at a profit in small
quantities so that the initial under-
taking must be on a large scale. It
is estimated that three companies
control 80 or 85 per cent of the
world’s supply of rayon and that one
company in this country produces
more than 50 per cent of the Amer-
ican output.

AUTO CLUB GIVES ADVICE
TO MOTORISTS ON NEW LAWS,
Keeping the shade in the rear win-
dow of an automobile down while
driving at night will be an offense
under the new Motor Vehicle Code of
Pennsylvania, effective January 1, ac-
cording to the Lancaster Automobile
Club, which in its weekly bulletin
lists a number of the practices that
are forbidden under the new law. Ac-
cording to the new code in Pennsyl-
vania:
To fail to have a cleaner instalied
on the windshield.
To fail to have a rear view mirror.
To park within less than twenty-
five feet of an intersection.
To coast with the gears in neutral.
To have plates, cards or lettering
of an improper nature attached to
any car.
To deface or damage any highway
sign.
To have any non-transparent post-
ers on the windshield or windows.
To fail to report to the police any
accident where injury results or
where property damage is $50 or
more.
To loan registration plates to an-
other.
“These are but a few of the pro-
visions of the new State Motor Code,”
said Edward S. Gable, president of
the Lancaster Automobile Club, “and
all motorists should be familiar with
them and with the rest of the regu-
lations before January 1. The new
number traffic code is strict in these
and in a number of other provisions
and lack of knowledge of the new
law will not save drivers from lia-
bility for the violating of any of the
regulations. For that reason all are
urged to study and become familiar
with the provisions. All of the reg-
ulations were framed with the best
interests of the general public, both
the driver and the pedestrian in mind,
and I feel sure that if the new code
is observed to the letter by all that
there will be far fewer accidents on
our streets and highways.”
“Indifference of the average mot- |
orist is the chief factor in perpetuat-
ing the condition under which car
owners annually lose millions of dol-
lars thru short measurement of gas-
oline and oil,” says the weekly bullet-
in of the Lancaster Automobile Club,
“and the filling pump is not respon-
sible for the short measurement in
nearly so many instances as the sta-
tion attendant, who recognized, in
the inattention of the patron, an ex-
cellent opportunity to substitute a
lesser quantity of gasoline than is
crdered and paid for.”
“This is not so often the case in
the county.” states the president of
the Automobile Club, “but it is partic-
ularly noted by local motorists when
touring. Every now and then a fill-
ing station attendant, noting the car
bears an out-of-state license, will try
the short measure stunt, according
to local tourists, and frequently get
away with it.
“The conventional practice, says
Mr. Gable, “is to drive up to a pump
and order five, ten or fifteen gallons
of gasoline. After placing an order
the driver remains seated, paying
little or no attention to the filling
process. ..He. does not know how much
is being put into the tank and a dis-
honest person in attendance, noting
this, takes advantage of the indiffer-
ence of the motorist. It is only due
to the fact that a large number of
the attendants are honest, that mot-
ordom’s loss-thru-short- measure is
Boj considerably larger than at pres-
ent.
“Watch the attendant when he fills
the gasoline tank on your car,” is
the Auto Club’s admonition, “then
you will be sure of getting the quan-
tity for which you pay. This is partic-
ularly true when on a long tour, es-
pecially in other States.”
300 Broadcasting Stations Doomed,
Three hundred of the 690 broad-
casting stations now licensed in the
United States are doomed, according
to latest reports. It is planned to
eliminate them during 1928, begin-
ning on February 1, under a new
policy decided upon by ‘the Radio
Commission.
It is not expected that all these
stations will be closed down at one
time but will be gradually eliminated
so that by March 15, when the first
year’s life of the commission ends in
its present capacity, there will be
just 300 stations cut out. Unless Con-
gress sees fit to continue the present
working capacity of the Commission,
control of the stations will be put un-
der another division of the Depart-
ment of Commerce, with the Commis-
sion acting only in an advisory ca-
pactiy.
Dr. Lee DeForest, inventor of the
three-element vacuum tube, advocates
the reduction to about one-half of the
present number of stations and says
he feels certain that the entire coun-
try, both in the cities and the rural
communities can be adequately served
by not more than 300 broadcasting
stations. According to his statement
a large number of stations can be op-
erated on one wave length and carry
the same identical program, if syn-
chronization is effectively carried out,
and the present congestion would be |
somewhat rclieved. However, it is a
known fact that the present number
of stations in this country are abso-
lutely not needed.

Move to Re-establish Indian School.
The Carlisle Indian School, after
being given up for a decade, by the
Government, stands a good chance of
restoration in somewhat improved
form, if plans now being laid by a
number of prominent Indians are car-
ried out. The former schools, oper-
ating on industrial lines may be
succeeded by an outstanding college
for higher education, which Indians
all over the country are hoping to
endow and establish.
Representatives of the aboriginal
races want to see the Indian youths
offered educational facilities of tha
highest order in an eastern environ-
ment, under the control of the In-
dians themselves. Already substan-
tial funds have been vledged to the
furtherance of the plans.

1gopatis really meant was “Lord of
‘masters of the cows.
. sidered a crime to kill a cow and the
Maintain Own Game Preserve.
In the last year the conservation
department of the State of New York
licensed 258 persons to operate pri-
vate game farms and collected from
the sale of licenses for that purpose
$1,290.
When the sale of wild game was
permitted years ago it was recog-
nized that this was in large measure
responsible for the steadily diminish-
ing amount of wild life to be found
in the covers each year, and that
unless action were taken to stop it,
not a few species would in a short
time follow the path of the wild
pigeons, being completely extermin-
ated by market hunters. According-
ly a law was placed upon the statute
books prohibiting the buying and
selling of wild game.
But plainly there was a demand
for game, so, until a way was found
to supply the demand, the benefits
it was hoped would accrue to wild
life from the passage of the law
would not be felt, for as long as
there remained a market there would
remain hunters to supply it. The
problem was to find a way to supply
the demand for game in some way
other than at the expense of the wild
life. The solution was found in a
law providing for the raising in cap-
tivity of certain species of game and
for the killing of it for food after it
had ben marked for identification by
the conservation department.
VIOLATORS PUNISHED.
In the early years of the law a
few farms endeavored to evade the
law by selling wild game. Detection
followed and the violators were pun-
ished—one man settling with the
State for $20,000. It is now only oc-
casionally that a complaint is re-
ceived by the department that one of
the farms is suspected of violating
the law or the terms of its license.
On the whole, the law providing for
the raising of game for consumption
is declared to have worked out ad-
mirably.
The game that may be raised on
game farms in this State comprise
American elk, fallow deer and Japa-
nese deer, roebuck, pheasants, Can-
ada geese, mallard ducks, black ducks,
bob-white quail and Hungarian or
gray-leg partridge. When killed and
tagged as prescribed by the depart-
ment, these species may be sold for
food. Pheasants and mallard ducks
are the species most commonly found
on these farms.
Reports made to the department
indicate there ‘were raised on the
farms last year 15,020 mallard ducks,
9,222 black ducks, 29,145 pheasants,
324 deer and 70 Canada geese. Not
all this game was sold. A consid-
erable part of it was given away to
friends of licensees, and to charitable
institutions, and no small number of
birds were liberated for stocking pur-
poses.
Discovery of Butter Credited to an
Accident.
Credit for the origin of butter is
given to the camel of Arabia in a
romantic story of the cow—*“The
Path of the Gopatis” (Lord of the
Cows), issued by the National Dairy
council.
“The Arabians first knew butter as
an accident when carrying milk by
camel,” says this authority. “It was
necessary for them to sour their milk
to preserve it, as there were no re-
frigerators on the desert. The sour
milk was stored in skin bags, which
could be slung across the back of the
camels. One day on opening a skin
they found floating around in the
liquid lumps of something soft, but
solid. They tasted it and found it de-
licious. They rubbed it upon their
faces and marveled at how beautiful
it made them.
“Later they hit upon an idea of
making this delicacy. They tied some
of the skin sacks of milk to the backs
of their fastest horses and rode them
at top speed, back and forth, up and
down the sands of the desert. That
was the first butter ever made, more
than 2,500 years before Christ. But
it was an expensive and dangerous
process to run the tribe’s best horses
at breakneck speed, and butter then
was only used as a rare ointment and
in the choicest foods for the most spe-
cial occasions. Finally, they discov-
ered a more prosaic, but less pre-
carious means of attaining the same
result. They laid the leathern sacks
upon the ground or hung them on |
poles and beat them with sticks. Thus
they had a supply of butter which
was reasonably easy to prepare.”
In the land (pastures of central
Asia the word of “king” and “war-
rior chief” was gopatis, but what
the Cows,” who also must be king and
warrior, since the possession and pro-
tection of cows were “the most
weighty and honorable duties” of
man in that region. The people of
the Gopatis were the Aryans, the first
To them the
possession of cattle meant health,
appiness and wealth. It was con-
penalty was made to fit the crime.
It was that “the killer of a cow must
stay a month in penitence, sleeping
in a stable, following the cows, and
must purify himself by the gift of an-
other cow.”
Cold Storage Eggs Must be Stamped.
The Cold Storage law in Pennsyl-
vania specifically requires that all
eggs received from cold storage
warehouses and offered for sale be
stamped and labeled “Cold Storage
Eggs.” Several prosecutions have
been ordered recently for the sale of
cold storage eggs not stamped as re-
quired and in some cases where such
egss were sold as fresh. The retail
dealers are warned by Dr. James W.
Kellogg, director, Bureau of Foods
and Chemistry, Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Agriculture, that if they sell
cold storage goods without proper
markings they are liable for prosecu-
tions and fines.
“The Bureau is making a campaign
throughout the State to enforce the
provisions of this law and prevent
the unlawful sale of such eggs,” Dr.
Kellogg stated. Large quantities of
cold storage eggs have been coming
