birth control Tuesday in Wilkes-Barre

zerne County Birth

in regulating the number of children
they should have to establish a happy
Thére is no need for cities to
want to double their population, since
it only leads to more unemployment,
crime and furnishes cannon fodder for
wars. In large families the older
children are deprived of the attention
they deserve. Dr. Hamilton expressed
hope that Wilkes-Barre might soon
have: ‘a Birth ' Control Clinic for
mothers who are’ sent to consulting
doctors by the charities. Holland,
healthiest nation in the world, prac-

from an altitude never attains a
velocity greater than 118 miles per
hour. This velocity is reached within
a period of 11 seconds, and after fall
ing 1,200 feet in quiet air. The ac-

REPORTS GOOD BUSINESS
R. M. Scott of Trucksville, 'manufac-
turer of Postograf duplicating

during the past few days was one for
twenty machines to go to Houston,
Texas; six to Los Angeles; six to
Portland, Maine, and other single or-

MILK PRICES PAID FARMER
HIT NEW LOW LEVEL
The net pool price of $2.51 per 100
pounds for 3.5 milk at the 201-210 mile
zone paid by the Dairymen’s League
ICooperative Association; Inc., for Feb-
ruary milk reflects the unusually low
sales prices that prevailed during the
month and the price cutting carried
on by dealers handling unorganized
supplies, savs a statement from the
League.
Not in many years have prices of
condensed milk, butter, cheese and
other surplus commodities been so low
as during January and February. Con-
ditions weére worse in the latter month
than in January. ~ Although members
of the Dairymen’s League held pro-
duction on an almost.even keel during
the first two weeks, and although the
surplus was not abnormally large for
that season, the difficulty of disposing
of it forced the association to put a
considerable amount of milk into
cheese and other lower classifications.
Although fluid shipments to the
metropolitan territory showed the
usual increase over the previous Feb-
ruary, so ‘nuch of the milk came from
unorganized sources and sold at such
low prices that it offset to a large ex-
tent benefits which otherwise would
have been gained.

Worth-While Thought
It is easy for anyone to give up, to
say that the buffeting waves of this
mundane experience are too much fog
him, and to live a miserable and com-
plaining life. This is low thinking.
Just as a man is endowed with a
spirit that can soar above the ani-
mals, so this spirit can bring him
down to the animal level. Let us
think high thoughts, cultivate high
emotions and indulge in high pleas-
ures.—Chicago Daily News.

Attracting Shoppers
