THE FIRST CONCERN.
— Modern science has taught us
e value of sunshine. The wealth
hich our grain fields and fruit
ees capture from the sunshine far
ceeds the products of all the
Jld or silver or copper mines. And
i vast hoards of coal and oil are
ly sunshine in cold storage.
Tyndall maintained that light was
erely a mode of motion; but the
test dictum of science holds that
sac Newton was right, that sun-
ht is a substance, fine particles
rapid motion, the most rapid
>tion known, one hundred and
zhty-six thousand miles per sec-
d.
These flying particles strike the
in with such a momentum that
spite of their almost infinite
nuteness, they are carried through
s skinand produce in the interior
the body effects which are es-
atial to the growth and develop-
nt, and which enable the body to
sist the attacks of disease germs
d other enemies of life and health.
Plants which grow in the shade
> puny and slender, lacking in
or and are an easy preyof plant
sts. The foliage of such plants
sparse, the flowers and fruit are
her absent or scanty and of poor
ality.
Juman beings are equally in-
sted to the sun's rays. Light is
essential to health as food. In
:t, the observations of Steenbock
i others show that lightis food—
subtle, ethereal food which soaks
through the skin instead of being
sorbed by the stomach.
And this celestial food that, like
. manna of the Israelites of old,
nes down from the skies, can be
red and accumulated in the tis-
.s. The summer season is har-
t time in a larger sense than
+ agriculturists appreciate. The
mer, while gathering in his crops
corn ad wheat, is also absorbing
vitalizing solar rays, and this
why he lives several years long-
than the city dweller.
‘he amount of sunshine absorbed
ends upon the amount of sur-
e exposed tothe sun’s rays. The
1 of a large man has an area of
ut twenty square feet. The or-
ary clothing covers all but about
square foot of this area, the
1 of the face and hands. Small
ntities of sunlight filter through
clothing, especially when thin,
t-colored fabrics are worn. To
a full meal of sunshine, the
eral body surface must be ex-
2d.
he sun bath is even more es-
jal asa health conserving means
a the water bath. By taking a
bath two or three timesa week
ng the summer, a store of light
gy may be accumulated which
serve as a vital barricade
inst the germ enemies which are
t active in the fall and winter
ths, when the sunlight has large-
ost its value as a vitalizing force.
, the Lake Region and the North
\ntic States, the summer months
the only season of the year
n the sunshine is sufficiently
in ultra-violet rays to be high-
ffective as a vitalizing agent.
3 doubtless for this reason that
rculosis is so prevalent in the
ern part of the United States.

vn in Arizona and New Mexico
| these States became popular as
th resorts for tuberculosis pa-
-s from all parts of the United

1e discovery that sunshine can
itored in the body, is a fact of
\endous importance, since it
es possible, for persons who live
uch regions as the North At-
¢ States, to lay up a stock of
energy sufficient to carry them
;ast a part of the way through
almost sunless winter months.
at is true of tuberculosis is
lly true of other diseases.

FOR
AND ABOUT WOMEN.
Daily Theught.
The sole thing that Tremark
About the difficulty, this:
We do not see it where it is,
At the beginning of the race,
As we proceed, it shifts its place,
And where we looked for crowns to fall,
We find the tug’s to come—that’s all.
—Browning
| —Germany plans to tax spinisters
and bachelors, to help balance the
budget. Women and men, unmar-
ried, according to German theory,
are not doing their share.
Unmarried women might reply,
“Show us a man worth while; oth-
erwise we’d rather be taxed.”
A tax on unmarried women under
forty-five would be desirable in this
country, if it could drive into mar-
riage intelligent young women now
single.
The greatest loss to the nation is
the loss of millions of superior chil-
dren that would be born if intellec-
tual young females could be per-
suaded to take men as they are,
and not to expect too much.
Take it from Miss Martha L.
Connole, a modern Portia attending
the directors’ meeting of the Na-
tional Federation of Business and
Professional Women's clubs, most
women are not out in the business
world because they want to be.
She thinks they have been ‘“kick-
ed out” of the home. And further-
more, she says, it is getting harder
all the time for women to succeed
because “chivalry has fallen into the
ash can.”
Miss Connole, who hung out her
shingle when women attorneys were
a novelty, expounded her views to-
day in commenting on a radio talk
by Mrs. Thomas A. Edison, in which
the inventor’s wife was reported as
urging women to return to home-
making and pay less attention to
the lure of professional and business
careers. Miss Connole asked:
“And where is the home we are
to return to?
“Moreover, for nearly every Wwo-
man working there is some man—
father, husband, son, brother or
other male relative, dead or alive—
who has fallen down on the job of
providing for her support.
“Bucking the world is not easy.
Of course, there are some women
who aspire to fame and others who
are naturally independent.”
__Use old shirts for covering dress-
es hanging in the closet. Slip a
leg of an old pair of pyjamas over
your ironing board for a clean cov-
ering. Keep opened rolls of gauze
bandages, and absorbent cotton in
covered baking powder cans in the
medicine closet, For variety, use
three tablespoons of grapefruit juice
with a half a cup of salad oil to
make dressing. To sweeten the cof-
fee percolater, half fill it with hot
water, soap and borax and let it
boil for a few minutes, then rinse
it thoroughly with hot water.
— There are three ways in which
a fabric can be colored. The first
is to dye the yarn before it is
woven; this results in complete
color permeation. The second is to
dye the woven fabrics; this results
in fairly complete permeation. The
third is to print the color or colors
on the surface of the cloth; here,
obviously, the color permeation is
far from complete.
The shopper can easily determine
which method of coloring has been
used. Just unravel a few strands
and examine the yarn. Colored yarn
will show a sand coloring; piece-dyed
show gaps in the color where an-
other strand has crossed the yarn
and prevented the dye from per-
meating; printing will show a su-
perficial coloring of such portions of
the yarn as from the actual sur-
face of the fabric.
The popular shades for window
shades are variations of tan or
gray, running from dark brown or
gray to ivory, cream, white, or
gray-white. A few years ago, green
shades. Now one rarely sees green
window shades in the shops, though
many are left over in houses.

IN THE MEXICAN QUARTERS. |
(Continued from page 2, Col. 6.)
“You've got to take me. I'd go
mad here waiting and not knowing.” |
And asI hesitated, she whispered
a familiar-sounding phrase. “Oh, |
please”—a sob shook her-—“I'm go- |
ing to my man.” .
Time was too precious to waste,
I stepped on the gas and twenty
minutes later skidded into Camp
Four. Old Sam had a string of |
horses ready, and putting Claire on |
the gentlest, six of us headed south
across the desert. The girl spurred |
to my side.
“Is there much danger?” |
“Rustlers aren’t famous for their |
sense of humor. They'll never see |
what this means? It’s Billy show-'
ing you he was worth your trust, |
He's proving to himself and to wus
that he's got the stuff.
“Let’s hope those thieving greas-
ers don’t feel the need of proving
something.” |
They couldn't be far ahead, I
knew. They'd have to ford the riv- |
er and skirt the east edge of the
mesa. We had avoided all that.’
And with fifty head of steers they
couldn't set avery rapid pace. But
we were even nearer than I'd thought,
for topping a rise we saw beneath
us a bunch of cattle close herded in
a clump of mesquite. Above the
hoof-beats I heard the spit of a
rifle and almost at the same time
one of my boys blazed away at a
sombreroed horseman and missed
him by twenty feet. But that was
plenty.
In another minute two Mexicans
were spurring frantically for the
border. Then a blue flash from
behind the mesquite and the third
Mexican fell with a bullet through
his thigh.
Plunging down the slope at a mad
gallop we drew up beside the herd.
In the shadow of the mesquite Billy
lay with closed eyes. Already the
girl was out of the saddle and
kneeling at his side. So low she
spoke I couldn't catch the words,
but even a rank outsider in this
perplexing subject of love could tell
that all of a woman’s heart lay in
her low caressing voice.
I tore open his blood-flecked shirt,
then drew a long breath. Just a
glancing shot, not evena rib touched.
And about that time Billy’s eyes
opened.
“Who the devil do you think you
are, going out single-handed after
that outfit?” I began.
He looked up at me and his hand
closed tight over the girl’s hand.
“You dry up,” he whispered weak-
ly but happily. “We ranchers sure
have to protect our own property.”

FOR YEARLY DRIVE ON
SIGNS ALONG HIGHWAY
Illegal signs posted along State
Highways are scheduled for prompt
and speedy destruction by the Penn-
sylvania Department of Highways,
according to James Lyall Stuart,
Secretary of Highways. The high-
way official has directed his main-
tenance forces to scan every foot
of the roadside bordering the high-
way system and tear down alll out-
law signs by July 15.
Particular attention will be de-
voted to signs imitating official
markers, many of which are popular
with eating stands. “Stop” or
“Warning” signs, accompanied by
the information that Possum Glory
Inn is just 500 feet ahead are
frowned upon by the Department as
needlessly distracting the attention
of drivers. The same is true of
signs constructed in such a manner
as to resemble in form or appear-
ance the officials markers.
Many signs on private property
will disappear during the drive,
The procedure to be followed is for
the caretaker to inquire of property
owners whether permission has been
granted for the erection of such
signs near the roadway. If not,
caretakers will remove the signs.
When permission has been granted
and the signs are not within the
legal right-of-way they cannot be
disturbed.
The most noticeable improvement
expected is a removal of tattered
weather-beaten and neglected signs
that have outlived the agreement
under which they were originally
placed. With co-operation of the
property owners these will be pulled
down and the blemishes removed.
Cardboard, cloth, tin, steel and
wooden signs, commonly called
“snipe” signs, are the center of the
wholesale campaign to clean up the
roadside. Every variety of unsight-
ly daub and tattered blurb will fail
before the army of caretakers.

letters meant “Save Our Ship,” or
“Save Our Souls,” it was stated

ROADSIDE FIRST AID IS ;
PLANNED BY RED CROSS
An extensive plan of emergency
first aid service along the highways
is now being projected by the Amer-
ican Red Cross, whose officials’ have
been moved to act by the 30,000
deathg and a million injuries due to
automobile accidents last year. i
The plan calls for the establish-
ment of first aid service under Red
Cross local chapters at cross roads
and other danger points. Wayside
stores, stations of highway police, |
community centers and the like, at |
convenient intervals, are suggested
as locations for this emergency |
service. |
Each Red Cross station will have
onhand a complete kit of first aid |
supplies, a list of telephone num-.
bers of physicians, ambulances and
hospitals in the vicinity which has
been approved by the local medical
society, and at least one person
readily available, who has been
trained in Red Cross first aid.
The Red Cross has for some years
been active in teaching first aid to
policemen, firemen, Boy Scout lead-
ers and executives and employees of
telephone companies and other in-
dustries. They are prospective ma-
terial for the first aid duty.
Markers are to be set up on the
roads, indicating the direction and
distance to the nearest first aid
station, also arrangements made for
volunteer automobile transportation
All first aid services would be ren-
dered by volunteers without charge,
as a part of a chapter's activities.
