Speaking of perfect weather, we have all this and October too. ■»i Q **O" — **— While others were wafting for favorable weather or working up publicity stunts, young Philip Mackman. the English school boy dived into the channel and swam across. Now, as a champion swimmer he will have to think up some way to capitalise on his exploit. Harry Lauder, the world fatn ous Scottish comedian, is slowing losing his fight for life Little hope is extended for his recovery. Sir Harry brought joy to millions as he sang his "Roamin’ in the Gloamin’" and "She’s the Lass •for me.’” Theater goers of a couple decades ago will never forget his scintillating melodies and stage performances. O o The message from the Army that Lawrence E Lichtenberger, ton of Mr and Mrs W H. Lic htenberger of route five, met tragic death in Germany, casts sorrow over the community. The young man entered the army just little over a year and was in the American zone with a military police battalion Thil newspaper extends sympathy to the bereaved parents and family. o o Maurice Early refutes in his dispatches, about the plans for the government's half-billion dollar atomic energy plant near Idaho Falls, Idaho, which will put this new force to work for peace rather than war A paradox of the development is that the plant Is being located in the desert because It will need vast quantities of water Under the site are great streams of water of "lost rivers ” The water is pumped to the sutface, used and then returned to the earth where the lava rock will absorb harmful radiation The outlook is for great growth In the Idaho country. which also has some cf the largest cattle ranch's In the country. o o How much does the average American know about the United Nations Organization and what it

"Safest" Year in Life Span

By Herman N. Bundesen? M.O. i WHICH i* the safest age; in I fancy, young adulthood. full ma 1 turity? At which stage In life i*l the Individual beat protected against death'* Are special safe-1 guard* needed at certain points on the journey we all make from the cradle to the grave? It is certainly true that a* a person grows older, his chances of sue I vivinr from one birthday to the next change considerably. The ! first year of life, for example, is al hazardous time and the first week is particularly dangerous Once the child ha* na s »ed th* I period of infancy, his chance* for survival grow better and belief I during the next ten year* but after this the situation is reversed and' the odds for surviving gradually grow less. Thu*, according to statistics, th* , safest year of life begins with your 11th birthday When the child reaches this age period, hr ha. already passed through the haxard* of the catching diseases, such as scarlet fever, diphtheria, and mea*k«. Furthermore, the chronic or longcontinued disorder* which come on later in life do not de velop tn children of this age it would appear that the death rate of boys of the are of eleven is ?3 per IPO.see and for girls it is about 45 These rales are only half as high as they were IX yean ago. but there to more tint can be dore to reduce them *til. further Large aumbers of the deaths which occur are doe to accMvats; in fact, they account for about X/» Si S.lU> — laWkm knbt Atast

has accomplished? This question University. The concensus was that no serious interest In the world organization can be found among the people as a whole I Passive acceptance of Its existence, with no knowledge of its achievements, characterizes the public attitude, It was concluded A strong body of public opinion would form the best possible support for the international body. Wl.’h such support the League of Nations might have worked, and the second world war have been avoided was propounded to a group of teachers and others at the United Nations workshop of New York o o A park and forest project In Putnam and Owen counties, along with federal flood control, will give Indiana an 8.100 acre state park, the largest in the state. Anton Hillman, Jr, Terre Haute millionaire and owner of the Indianapolis 500 mile track, has donated <50,000 toward acquiring about 500 acres cf land for the combined forest reserve and park. The state also purchased an equal number of acres, and the two tracts adjoin the big flood control project south of Greencastle. With erection of a dam at Mill Creek a 1.400 acre lake wiil be created. The state conservation department plans to develop the site over a four year period, glv- ' Ing Indiana one of the largest artificial lakes and recreation i centers in the country. o o The Work Week: With the capitulation of the railroads to the forty hour week there remain few industries still I hanging on to the longer week It was reasonable that the rail- ( roads should switch to the shorter week, and it is reasonable that ' others will do so in the future, as 1 long as the forty hour week Is generally accepted It should be borne in mind, however. that even though the work wet k may continue to get shorter the output of goods and services must continue to grow larger i The population still grows, and the idea of what constitutes a good living keeps getting higher Therefore there must always be an increasing amount, from year to year, of products and services. Tin re is no other way to keep the high standard of living of which wo are so fond. It may be that the work week can become still shorter It may he that it Is already too short. ' Whenever the time comes when we are unable to increase our j supply of the things of everyday I life In relation to the number of 1 people, th«n we will have to choose between a declining stand ard of living and a longer week

i 1/C among the girls. Fatal accidents are four times as frequent among boys as ament girls Other conditions which are. responsible for fatalities among children of this age are rheumatic fe ver, cancer, infantile paralysis, ap pindlcitis. and tuberculosis Such c mditlonx as appendicitis, pneumonia and tuberculosis are | amendable to treatment if the con dll ions are discove red early and the treatment carried out promtly. It Is important that the child with rheumatic fever be kept under i medical care. While no specific ' cure for this disease has been found, with rest, the use of the sul j fonamides and oth»r measures. I mu'-h of the damage to the heart : which this condition causes may be | warded off. Usually, with prompt diagnosis of appendicitis and removal of the appendix, no deaths from :hH condition n-ed occßr. Os coarse, all parents should be on the lookout to employ all mess-' ares necessary for the prevention I of accidents, both in the home and I r>B the streets. Carefei sape.-vislon ' by parent, and placing more stress | on safely education would undoubtedly reduce the toll from accidents' anJ make the safest axe even safer. ■ QUtSTIONB AND ANSWERS F.
