CHILDISH ACTION
Governor Pinchot stated Monday
that Pennsylvania is losing $10,000
a day thru failure to enact a beer
tax law. With money needed on
every side, with taxes, taxes and
then more taxes, the authorities ac-
tually throw away $10,000 per day.
Can vou imagine such childish at-
titude in these depressive times of
need ? :
We don’t know just who is re-
sponsible, but think this childish-
ness should be cast aside immed-
iately, the proper legislation enact-
ed and get that much needed money
—particularly now.
THE SMALL TOWN TREND
The present trend of population,
from the cities back to the rural
areas, has added greatly to the
growth of the towns and villages
during the last two years.
Many of us are prone to classify
our population into two groups,
city dwellers and farmers. This is
a grave error. Between these two
classes are the inhabitants of the
small towns, and these soon will
number 25 per cent of our entire
population, according to the pres-
ent rate of growth. They are neith-
er city dwellers nor rural inhabi-
tants, but a separate class, contain-
ing much of the best, the steadiest,
the most progressive of our citizen
ship.
WHAT'S WRONG?
Last week saw the passing of
Mount Joy’s only home bakery and
also our local talking picture house
Both closed up very suddenly be-
cause they didn’t pay. We certainly
regret to make a report such as
this for many reasons.
We are without a home industry
—a bakery and a movie as well.
Both, particularly the latter,
brought many people to town who
spent money in our stores and other
business places and there is no
good reason why we should not have
just as modern a movie as any
town the size of Mount Joy in the
county.
We know our business men will
feel the absence of these two enter-
prises and hope the time is not far
distant when they will be replaced.
THE GARDEN URGE
Most of us haven’t thought much
about gardens the last few years
but will be spading and seeding this
spring. More spare time will give
some of us a chance to put in some
real gardens. The opportunity to
turn garden hours into savings
through producing our own vege-
tables will be an even more import-
ant factor.
There is nothing more healthful
than garden work. During the war
it was a patriotic thing to have a
garden. It is just as patriotic to-
day, for it shows that we are do-
ing our part to economize and meet
our problems and feed our families
with our burdening others.
The nation, it is said, must bal-
ance its budget. So must we as in-
dividual families. And where there
has been a reduction in earning
power, we can help to balance our
budgets by gardening.
WE COMMEND FOR BRAVERY
The banker who protected his de-
positors.
The dairyman who didn’t water
his milk.
The wife who stuck.
_The juror who stood by his con-

The man who disregarded all ad-

The cop who shot it out with
armed bandits and took his share

patriot who has kept his faith in
God and America.

BETTER TIMES
The surest signal for a real and
enduring improvement of business
is a general rise in prices. Ths sig-
nal has been awaited in vain for
three vears. Successive efforts to
restrict production have failed to
show price improvements. Now with
inventories uniformly low, save in
a few basic commodities, and with
confidence returning, there are
many indications that price im-
provement is setting in.
It is now evident that we are not
to have inflation, and that the dol-
lar is not to leave its gold basis.
But there is a mildly inflationary
tendency in the new currency pro-
gram. It is not currency inflation,
since it does not increase the in-
debtedness of the government, and
since it does not increase the to-
tality of the purchasing power in
the country. It provides liquid as-
sets in exchange for sluggish assets
This new currency will strength-
en the cash position of the banks.
This will permit the banks to aug-
ment their loans to customers for
legitimate business purposes. This
increases purchasing power. New
credit is created. This means a new
demand for goods and services and
new buyer competing for those
goods and services. The logical re-
sult of this is price increases.
Once the improvement of prices
is seen to be substantial and lasting
we can look forward to continued
growth of business activity. This
Process will be accelerated by the
administration program of the new

By Dr. Allen G. Ireland
Director, Physical and liealth Education, New Jersey State Department
of Public Instruction
IN these times, when so many of
us are faced with economic need;
we must make sure that the chil-
dren are properly fed in order that
the next generation will not be
hampered or injured by the diffi-
culties of our times.
This is a matter so serious that
it admits of no argument. Physi-
cians and scientists well know that
improper nutrition, particularly in
childhood, inevitably lowers resis-
tance to disease, tends to produce
stunted or deformed growth, has
serious effect not only on the bodies
but also on the minds of growing
children. This is particularly true
of children in the schools. It is
about school children that I wish
to speak in this series of articles.
The Parents’ Wish
Every parent has some sincere
wish for his child. They're not
secret wishes either, for in my
work with parent-teacher asso-
ciations I have’ opportunities to
question fathers and mothers, and
they tell me readily enough. Of
course, “health” stands first. You
would expect that. As a father, it
is first with me too.
But sometimes, when I take them
unawares, parents will mention
“success,” “fame,” “wealth,” “hap-
piness,” or “parenthood.” Then I
say, “What?” “How about health{"”
It is amusing to watch them hasten
to agree. Guiltily they reassure me
with, “Yes; health is most impor-
tant.”
If your schoo! does not now have
a school lunch program, you should
work actively for it for the good of
your children. If it already serves
school lunches or at least a hot
dish at noon or a mid-morning or
mid-afternoon luncheon of milk
and crackers, get behind this pro-
gram and support it. Show that
as a parent you appreciate what
your school is doing in this direc-
tion and that you desire it to con-
tinue.
I do not mean to imply, of course,
that the school should furnish free
food to children. The cost of any
luncheon at school is a proper
charge upon the parents. ever-
theless, the school is obligated,
particularly where children can-
not return to their homes at noon,
to provide a suitable lunchroom,
to furnish milk and other essential
foods at cost, and to take advan-
tage of the ideal educational situa-
tion created by the school lunch.
The parent is obligated to make
the program financially possible.
Usually it means only a few cents
a day—a few cents a day for
health and happiness!
More Information
The schocl does not need to have
an elaborate lunchroom. Many
schools use classrooms and still
make their lunch a happy and in-
structive high spot in the child’s
school day.
Many parents write to me for
information about school lunches

Knows Birds and Animals
At the age of thirteen a boy in the

can identify 750 birds and animals
from pictures, and describe their hab-
its, says a writer in the Golden Age.
He is in great demand every summer
as an instructor of Boy Scout and Y.
M. C. A. groups and is able to answer
immediately and learnedly about 98
per cent of all the questions put to
him regarding bird life. His father is
in the poultry business, and the boy
himself seems to be a natural-born
enthusiast on bird life in all its as-
pects.
Average Lifetime
There were 1,321,367 deaths in this
country in 1930 and the death rate was
11.3 per 1,000. Of these, about 142,000
were infants under one year. The es-
timated average length of life in this
country is now 56 years; about 50
years ago it was only about 40. Based
on the 1920 census, the average ex-
pectation of life at birth is 55.33 years
for a male, 57.52 years for a female.
