Schroeder is planning and old fashioned ’possum roast for tonight, and will invite a number of his friends to assist him in enjoying it. Harry R. Daniel, former newspaper man here and in Chicago, and who is visiting his mother here for a few days, is now the editor of the Fashion Art League Bulletin, a handsome and up-to-to-the-minute magazine, published in the interests of American fashions, and he is making good at this, as he has in all his work. Mr. Daniel it one of the best newspaper and magazine writers of the west and is bound to succeed in his new venture; in fact it is even now after but a few months so far along that the venture is assured. “El Paso, Texas, has one of the most interesting milk supplies of any city,” says the current issue of Farm and Fireside. “A considerable amount of the milk is goats’ milk produced by a number of goat dairies, one of which has a thousand goats. These goats get their living from the surrounding hot, dry territory, deficient in grass and only moderately covered with sagebrush and cactus. A cow would starve to death, but the goats, though fed neither hay nor grain, give on an average about a quart each. The milk brings the same price as cows’ milk, and is sold both in bottles and in bulk.” Philadelphia has the distinction of supporting a harp orchestra. A musical organization of this character is doubtless very unusual as a permanent institution, although a band of harps only may have been heard occasionally both here and abroad. The orchestra, consisting of fourteen harpists. is composed entirely .of women and girl players who have been banded together through the endeavors of a local musical dull. Its concerts are strikingly new to Philadelphia and have attracted considerable interest. A picture of the uicliesiia appears ill the December Popular Mechanics .Magazine. The riot of laughter, "Don’t Lie to Your Wife,” comes to the opera house December 2. All the incidents of this farce bear on latter-day happiness and the complications of a married man being caught in the midst of a party of chorus girls, during a party of gayety, by his wife, is about all the humor a person can stand for one night’s entertainment. The exquisite gowning is a distinctive feature of the performance and many up-to-to-the minute musical numbers and specialties are introduced. Mr. Primrose, the producer, has equipped the piece with a chorus of pretty girls who can really sing and dance. In the December American Magazine are the names of some newspaper men who have become magazine writers. Ring Lardner, F. P. Dunne ("Mr. Dooley”), Hugh Fullerton, Ray Stannard Baker, John A. Moroso, Dana Burnet. Don Marquis. Harry Carr. Grantland Rice. Rufus Steele and many others were taught at the copy desk. The newspaper has always been held to be the best training school for the magazine writer and even for the more ambitious novelist. Charles Dickens, Rudyard Kipling. Julian Ralph. Richard Harding Davis and George Fitch are among the famour reporters who began in the city room. NOTICE TO PUBLIC.

That 1 question has been propounded by 1 school authorities all over the United j g States, and answered with sound, sol- ! id reasoning by men and women inj terested in the physical welfare of the millions of boys and girls who are studying day after day in close, hot school rooms. Ten years ago an j open air school was almost an tinI known thing. Today in almost ev- } ery city of any size in the United States there is at least one open win’r dow room or outdoor school and in j the larger cities there are many such schools. The outdoor school has become a permanent feature of our edu--1 cational equipment. Because we are beginning to realize that the physical 1 condition of the children today will f determine the men and women of to--1 morrow, there is a strong movement 1 to discover and prevent physical de- ’ sects among them, and one of the most ! insidious causes of deformities and ill ’ liealth is tuberculosis in its many 1 forms. The cause of pulmonary tuber- ' culosis in adults is often, we are told 1 by eminent authorities, the result of 1 infection in childhood; and" many chil--1 dren are doomed to go through life • helpless cripples because of attacks of tuberculosis of the bone* and joints f during early life. Children suffering • from tuberculosis, even in its very > early stages, should not be allowed to ■ go to school with children free from f disease, not only because there is danger of spreading the infection, but ’ because the sick children should be given advantages which the others do 1 not heed. The only way this disease • can be actually suppressed is by improving the health of Uie anaemic ' children in our schools. Therefore. 1 it has often been contended that any • devfce that provides sanitary sur--1 roundings during a portion of the day 1 is an important adjunct to school life, because it increases the resistance to i disease in later years. ‘ 'Last year in Indianapolis the first i outdoor school for tuberculosis chilI dren built in Indiana, was opened on 1 i the old Arsenal grounds. The results were even more gratifying than those who fathered the project had hoped -for. Last year the school accommo- , ‘ dated twenty-two children, all of whom ■ at the end of the year showed marked signs of improved health; seven of i ‘ them were pronounced completely cur- • ed. This year the- capacity of the ‘ • school has been increased to fifty. ’ and all of the children are daily 1 changing from frail, anaemic, listless children, to rosy cheeked, happy, romping boys and girls. What has been done for these children should , be done for scores of boys and girls > right here in Decatur and Adams . county. The Indianapolis outdoor school was established by the Marion County So- > eiety for the Prevention of Tuberculo- . sis, which is financed through the sale . of Red Cross Christmas seals in Mar- . ion county. I Where an outdoor school is impractical, an open window room is an excellent substitute. We should give i our boys and girls who are anaemic . and predisposed to tuberculosis a r square chance in life; and that means start them out with good health. Help thetji to get it, if they never had it; and. by all means, allow them to keep it if they have it when they start into our public schools. At the headquarters of the Indiana Society for the"'Prevention of Tuberculosis. ' 210 Public Savings Bldg..

To the Editor: —I have tuberculosis and have been sleeping on a sleep--1 ing porch, entirely open, since June. ! The wind has been so strong and I cold during the last week or two that ,it is very unpleasant. What would | you advise? —M.
