"This idea that a man can't learn ' anything after he is forty, is bunk,’ ' MacGregor said. "It is important that ’ num running up against great econ ‘ omic and financial questions shook ‘ have a basic knowledge of them." Professor S. K. Kendrick says th* congressman is an industrious stu dent. I * o ! BUSINESS IS NORMAL Good And Bad In Present Business Conditions Seem Nearly Balanced, Says Evans Woolen. I Indianapolis, Aug. 3. — (United ( Press.) —The good and the bad it. present business conditions seem nearly balanced, according to Evam ,Woollen, president of the Fletchei . Savings anil Trust Co , of Indiatiapolis ‘‘We are going along at what it , called a 'theoretical normal." Mr ! Woollen told the United Press today . in a survey of business conditions. "The anilyst shows business just now exactly on the normal line, tak ings normal lite average of the last twenty years or more, a period it 1 which business has gone forty pet cent, above the line as in IHI7 ami ' an equal amount below as in 1921. “Illustrative of balancing factor! in present business conditions, them facts may be mentioned. Revenm car loadings ‘for the year are fifteei 1 per cent, above normal while th< 1 number qf active blast furnaces i: twenty per cent, below normal. “Great Britain has successfully re sumed gold payments and Germany seems on the way to economic reestab lishment while France struggles witl a debt of fifty billion gold dollars. “Prices, higher by a tenth than r year ago, seem fiirly stabilized at something like a quarter more thar in deflation, a third less than in in flation and a half more than at the beginning of the war. “Prices for agricultural commod ities and those for other commodities have come pretty well into equili ! brium. Indiana is smiling at thr jirospects of the best corn crop in several years. Wheat and oats have pro duced surprisingly good yields con altering the drought and late freezing in the spring. Country batiks an optimistic, expecting that many ‘froz en’ loans will be liquidated out of corn and hog sales. ‘‘General credits are easy for those entitled to borrow.

"Europe, most important, customer for our exports, is increasingly able to buy. “The Indiana mining fields are suf sering from the general malady of the mining industry throughout the ( country—-too many miners and too many mines. After the soft coal strike of 1922 there were approxl- . mately twice as many mines and min- ( ers as the nation required for an adequate supply of coal. | “Strip mining, at a greatly decreas- . ed cost over shaft mining, is producing at least 10,000 tons of coal a day , in Indiana. , “Those familiar with the industry * • fear that the shaft mine operator may f ' alive to surrender, his steam-coal hus- . iness to his strip mine competitior tin-

"The larger, welllfinunced. older shift mines operated in the state aro reported working at not more than 40 per r*?nt of capacity.

Moosebeart, 111., Aug. 3—Stop the separation of families, make It pos‘lble for every boy and girl to get at least a high school education, service for babies In the shims and tenement districts, service for distressed girls and provide sufficient food, for al) school children., aro some of the highlights of a ptogram for broader service by the l.oyal Order of Moose, according to Rodney H. Brandon. Executive Secretary of the Order. S< cretary Brandon said that plans| a.e being made to enable every Moose Lodge and there are 1,700, to procure acres »>f land at. the edges of their respective citties. upon which ire to be erected bungalows, so that imergncy service can be given to all stricken families, whether or not they are in any way affiliated with (he Moose order. "The most interesting thing in tha world," Mr. Brandon said, "is a baby, The Loyal Order of Moose has a corner on babies. We have more babies tnder our wing at Mooseheart than my other agency. Over 100,000 babies a year in the United States ire taken from their mothers and ;iven out to institutions and then idopted ou*. under numbers, untbl bey get a new name, and they never igain know their parents or brothers >r sisters. Not one mother or father, if on a death bed would ever be wiling to agree to such care for their iwn children, yet they permit it for others.

"The Loy.al Order of Moose, in its diort life of 19 years can pat itself >n the back for its achievements, the greatest in history. It has collected nillions of dollars and has expended the money in giving the best kind if homes to 2.000 children, several nindted mothers and hundreds of iged Moose and their wives. “There are millions of babies in listress and we must take the role »f crusaders and look over the earth md save the army of babies who nay Im lost. "We are working out a system, whereby men and women who are members ofj the Moose order will jive service to all helpless babies in ‘heir communities and provide them with necessities of life and schooling, o help make good citizens of them. We are going to have Moose comnittees in every city rap on doors of ■chool rooms and learn the identity >f all undernourished children, and eed them. We are going to provide ood for all hungry children, so that ■ll,'ldren whether or not their parents ire members of the Moose, will be •nabled to get at least a high school jducation. Under our system no diild will have to leave school to help earn money for the family. We ire going to eliminate poverty and economic* reasons which compel chi*Jren to leave school before they should.” —— o DAIRY EXPOSITION Indiana Manufacturing, Banking And Agricultural Interests To Be Hosts To National Meeting.

1 ■ ■ ; State Board Os Health Ado pts Rules And Regulations For Public Swimming Pools

In view of the fact that the city of Decatur is constructing a municipal swimming pool at Water Wojks park, it is well to know the rules and regui , lations adopted by the state board of health regarding the operations of ! such swimming pools. The rules and regulations adopted I by the State Board of Health are as I follows: f . —All pools must be registered with the State Board of Health. , Blanks for this purpose will be furn- , ished upon request. i ”2. —All pools must be registered , with the local health officer, and subject directly to his jurisdiction in maintaining sanitary conditons. > ”3.—A1l bathing plices shall be open I for inspection by properly authorized i health officers at all times when the i place is in operation. ‘‘l. —Health officers shall have the power to order reasonable changes • relating to improving sanitary conditions of the pool and its surroundings, and if deemed necessary, to close the pool until the conditions are sanitary and safe. “s.—The bacterial quality of the water must meet the approval of the State Board of Health Laboratory. Frequent tests -are advised, and if possible a local laboratory should make daily examinations. (In case of school swimming pools this should always be possible.) "The total colonies on standard agar media incubated for twenty-four hours at 37.5 degrees C. must not exceed 1.000 per cubic centimeter. B. Coli must not be confirmed in more than half of the one cubic centimeter portions of water. "6.—Disinfection is necessary in almost every case to meet the bacteriological standard. Any method of disinfection which keeps the water in a sufficiently pure state bacteriologically is satisfactory. The disinfectants commonly employed are , ine gas, chloride of lime, sodium | hypochlorite, ozone, and ultra violet i ray. “7. —Recirculation with filtration is strongly advised.

tory water. This depends, of course, 1 on the filter itself, size of pool, and ' number of bathers. If the fill and , empty method is used, tlie pool should • be emptied and cleaned thoroughly at least once a week. This type of pool I should not allow over one bather per i six hundred gallons of water. “8. —In case chlorine gaA is used I or some compound containing chlor- . ine, the amount available or excess - chlorinp shall not be less than .Ippm or more than .sppm. The orthotolidia 1 test should lie used to determine this - amount. i “9. Whenever alum is used in tlie purification process, the water must always show an alkalin- reac I lion with methyl orange. - ”10. —The water should be suffi ciently clear so that a black disk - placed in the deepest part may lit ; seen from both sides of tlie pool wher the water is quit-1. ‘ll. —All persons who are known to be with infectious disea .* shall lie excluded froiq the pool. The person in charge shchtld be on tie watch for persons with colds, coughs, skin eruptions. inf<c:>-I ty- . et< These persons are a real menace to others. ”12. —No common combs or brushes shall lie used. “13. —Every bather must take a shower bath before entering the pool. Every shower bath must be preceded with soap. Sufficient number of showers should be had so as not to occasion a long wait at any time. “14.—Where sewers are not aviilable, sanitary privies built in accordance with plans aproved by the State Board of Health shall be constructed. “15.—Where drinking fountains are provided, they shall be of a type approved by the State Board of Health. It' wells are used, the water should be analyzed at intervals and used only if approved by the State Laboratory. “16. — in case bathing suits are distributed by the pool management they' must be washed well and dried thoroughly after each use. Towels shall be treated similarly. This is most important.”
