JlfjTcr before, and through efficient
Unionizing many men have been able
to demand living wages to meet the
oaring cost of living. Kqually trim Is
it that professional persons such as
clerks nnd teachers nnd professors nnd
Ministers nre comparatively at starva
tion salaries. While objecting vio
lently, we nrc apt not to seUe the real
remedy, that Is, to cense our snobbish
ideals and fit the next gencrntion for
the trades that do pay! Why cllns to
tiie ldcn thnt there is something lofty
a)nd general In being a lawyer, if there
re thousands more lawyers beins
tnrncd out from every university each
Tear than can hope to earn n decent
living? In our prntlnp of democrnev,
Why not practice It, nnd train
our child to do some really useful and
creative work with his or her hands so
that ho or she always will be equipped
With a power that the world always will
fcuy?
i Girls as well as boys should know
trade nnd do creative work. You
may havo thought along theso lines be
fore, but alwavs there it great prejudice
to overcome. It is not thnt people who
have decided talents in the arts should
abjure them for some homely trade, but
that boys and girls should follow
natural bents, irrespective of century
old prejudices in favor of learned pro
fessions thnt may bo uncongenial nnd
give little promise of a good living for
many years to come.
' It can do no harm to furnish every
boy and girl with n groundwork of
practical education, be he in ever so
wealthy environment at home. Fortunes
often fade nnd millions of women in nil
lands throughout the centuries have
atruggled with sudden poverty, help
less and incompetent,
i There is a joy In fashioning any
thing practical and usable with our
hands. Carpentry In the trade courses
df manual training schools delights nny
normal boy, and cooking and wallpaper
designing nre a pleasure to most girls.
Bookkeeping nnd banking nre indis
pensable and the sooner young people
learn them the better equipped they
lire for personal nnd business life. It
takes but a short time for them to
learn which form of mental or physical
activity is best suited to them for more
serious specialization.

How to Live
U&SSiSI
OF COUIISE, nobody can live forever; but nt 1'lottsburg they showed us how
to live ns long as any man can live who takes good care of himself, who
maintains in a sound condition to the very last his mental nnd physical faculties,
who, in other words, keeps IIEAI.TMY.
t THE rLATTSBUItG IDEA is n mnn-buildlng institution. Not only that,
it aims to produce a nation of enduring, strong, virile men and women. That
ultimately it will do this, no man can doubt who hns survived the course. I
KNOW ! . ,
' Here is the best the medical fraternity of Plattsburg (which means the best
1 the world) has to give you. If you follow it as conncentlously ns you should
it is guaranteed to endow you witlj health, wealth, joy and wisdom and the
knack of living forever! .Gifts precious indeed!
r 1. Consequences nre pitilcis. Thev nre hard to think of. especially when
lve are young ; but unless wo do think of them, we do not find happiness nt the
end of the road.
1 2. It Is better and cheaper to keep well than to get well. Avoid persons who
iavc infectious diseases. This Includes anybody Buffering from a cold.
3. If you feel sick go to the doctor.

yttt, by exposing your-clf to a draft when overheated, by going insufficiently
clad in cold weather, or by lying on cold, damp ground.
5. Breathe deeply of fresh nir and never sleep In a "stuffy" room or tent.
0. Cleanliness is n requisite to good health. Keep your body and your
clothing clean. Air your bedding frequently.
7. Keep your teeth clean. At leabt brush them every night. Have them
ramined by a dentist at leasi once n year.
8. Do not wear a beard nnd keep your hnlr short.
I 0. Eat and drink in moderation nnd slowly. Eat at meal time. Do not
eat in between meals. Do not eat uncooked food. And don't allow flics to settle
on your food. Drink plenty of water, but bo sure It is good water. Don't drink
water from an unknown source.
J 10. If your skin has been broken by a blister or wound keep the place
Covered to prevent infection.
j 11. Take plenty of sleep, at least eight hours every night. You should wake
UP "full of pep."
f, 12. Tnke care of your feet. Keen them clean and dry. Keep the nails
trimmed. Sec that your shoes and socks fit properly.
J 13. Be regulnr and temperate in ull your habits.
I 14. Take recreation and exercise, a little every day. Don't overdo or
veru train.
115. Stay serene. Don't brood or worry.
10. Don't be afraid to work hard and to tudy hard to realize some worth

Work. You can In this way ndd perhaps two hours to your working dny.
I 17. If you meet the right sort of girl, and bhc'll have you, marry her
quickly if you can possibly nffnrd it.
' 18. Our great President Roosevelt has paid : "Men owe It to themselves to
lend clean lives. They owe it to their sweethearts and futuro wives and to the
Children who nrc to come after them. Thev owe It to the respect they feel for
their mothers nnd sisters. And they owe it to the Nation which they represent.
Let them lead clean, self-respecting lives in the first place, becnuse it Is the
straight, decent, self-respecting thing to do. Next, because it is tho only way
in which to give the siiuarc deal to the women of the right type, who, Heaven
knows, need the square deal. And, Anally, because they owe It to their country
BOt to ruin their efficiency as soldiers or citizens.

"Observer" Writes to "Tennessean"
Dear Cynthia Allow me to say a few
words to "Tdnnessean" through your
column:
"Ten" (pardon the haircut), I real
your letter with great Interest nnd to
tell the truth (which, by the way, Is de
sirable not necessarily because of Its
beauty but becauso of Its truth) In order
to ascertain for myself tho truthfulness
of your dazzling statements I was
obliged to do some Important lnvcstlg.it-
I lug and comparing. To what conclu
sion I came 1 will leave to your lmnn

whereas n "Spectator" Is not likely to

Did I hear any omo say that I got my
dates mixed?) This should not draw
you to the conclusion thnt I positively
disagree with you, because If It does It
Is very Incorrect, but how near or far
from right you nre (In my estimation)
you mny uso your own judgment.
As for me. although I never would
positively say that "Tennesscnn" has
written uoioro unacr an assumed namo,
still that Is a probability, maybe a
known fact to a close observer.
Although I would never bother trying
to awaken "McAVhlzzburgh" from his

wcro at most times Interesting.
If the "I'lebo" measures up with the

Judge Sense,
By DADDY -
Hubby Hutly, a bad boy. hns banged
and,smnhcd tho toys, so they com
plain to Judge Sense, Ho lure's Hubby
Jlully into the Mysterious uarden,
but there, when they think they
think they" have liuhhy a prisoner, ho
rages among them like a giant,
CHAPTER V
Hubby Bully Nibbles
SOMETHING had to bo done to stop
Dubby Bully from smashing the
toys. Judge Sense hod lured Dubby
Into tho mysterious garden by tempting
him to climb the wall nftcr rlpe-rcd
npplcs, but when the toys thought they
had Dubby a prisoner, they found he
wnsn't n prisoner nt all, except that ho
couldn't get nut of the garden. Ho
raged among them like n mod giant or
n wild elephant. Woe to tho toy that
couldn't dodge his cruel grasp.
"Use your wits!" Judge Scnso kept
yelling from his perch In the tree,
"Boys don't use their wits nnd you can
catch him easily If you use your wits."
But Judge Sense didn't tell them how
to use their wits.
"I'll show Judge Senic that somo
boys know how to uso their wits,'", snid
Jack to Jnnct. Jnck began tp think
very hard. "If Dubby Bully yasnt so
much larger than the toys, they could
make him n prisoner," he muttered.
"He Isn't much larger thnn you nre
when you arc boy size," whispered
Jnnct.
"We were made tiny by nibbling Mr.
Plcmnn'H malc cookies," snld Jack,
using his wits ns fast ns ho could.
Then Jnck gave a shout of joy. "Hur
rah! If wo could get Dubby Dully to
nibble on the magic cookies ho would
be nn small ns the toys and then they
could catch him without nny trouble."
Mr. Plemnn wns hiding near Jack
and Janet. Yes, he had more inngic
cookies. Ho gave Jack a handful of
them.
Jack used his wits some more. If he
offered the cookies to Dubby Dully, tho
bad boy might suspect n trick nnd not
cnt them. If he made believe he didn't
want to give Dubby Dully the cookies,
Dubby would be sure to want. them.
Dy this tlmo nil the toys were out of
sight, having hidden nmong the bushscs
or been thrown there by Dubby Dully.
The hnd bov lind tne open lawn nil to
himself nnd he wns beginning fo break
down the shrubbery looking for the hid
den toys.
Jnck strolled out upon the lawn ns
if he had just happened along that way.
He pretended to be nibbling upon the
cookies. He stared up at Dubby Bully,
who glared down ut him. Jiick kept
right on pretending to nibble. Dubby
Bully looked greedily nt the magic
cookies.
"Ghe me tho'e cookies!" ronrcd
Dubby. Jack's only nnswer was to
turn and run as fast ns ho could for
the shrubbery. Hu kept tight hold of
the cookies, but just before he, got to
the shrubbery he dropped them.
Dubby Bully greedily grabbed the
