Ye shall walk in all thè ways which thè Loré your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in thè land which ye shall possess. Deuteronomy 5:33. Startling Facts THE future well being of a community must depend to a large extent on thè health of ifs childrtTU Thirty-three per cent of thè Indianapolis school children are believed to be more than 7 per cent or more under weight. Not onlv can malnutrition be eliminated to a very large extent among thè school children of Indianapolis, but hundreds of cases of tuberculosis can be prevented. Tuberculosis is essentiallv a nutritional disease. About a third of all thè children of both school and pre-school age are under weight for their height, are under-nourished and malnourished. HaA*e you grasped thè full importance of thè above sentences? If not, read them over again. They are statements which every person in Indianapolis should take to heart. The statements are taken from thè ninth annual report of thè executive secretary to thè direetors and members of thè Marion County Tu- { bereulosis Association. made public today. They summarize thè findings from experiments in child nutrition work in Marion County /under thè direction of Dr. ‘William R. P, Emerson, nutrition expert of national reputation, during thè past twelve months. In ascertaining facts on which to base future activities for combatting disease thè Tuberculosis Association has performed a most impoutant con- ! structive Service to thè people of thè city. The ! program which thè Tuberculosis Association -proposes to carrv through with thè support of thè public is based upon prevention rather than upon j cure. This program can be successfully carried J through onlv to thè degree that thè public reai- j izes thè needs of preventive and to approve of ; measures proposed to malie Indianapolis as it should easily be. one of thè world‘s most healthful communities.

. Steam From Electricity WE have acquired thè habit of ealLing waterpower “white coai.’' We spoke more wisely than we knew. Two paper and pulp companies .save four hundred tons of coal a day in thè Province of Quebec by thè use of electricity from Quebec’s hydro-eleetric plants for thè purpose—astonishing to most of us—of generating steamThis is reallv making it take thè place of coal with a vengeaìice. We have always thought of steam as calling imperatively for coal, but these industries use 'hydro-electricity as a steam generator. A Quebec statesman thè other day spoke in fai'or of exporting electricity. Ile has some 7,000,000 horse power undeveloped. The Quebec hydro-electric plants in existence and to be de veloped are within transmitting distance of New England. And NewJSngland has no coal. But, of course, some statesmen of thè McCumber and Fordney school would put a tariff on electricity. Ought not our infant hard coal and hydro-electric industries to be protected? And. if they onghtn’t, that’s no reason why they

Food for Future Generations Must be Produced by Chemicals

Copyright. 1922, by United News. SCHENECTADY, N. Y„ Oct. 26. Production of food by Chemical or biochemical mear.s is an objective toward which scientists must work in thè uture if thè World is to be sp&red a grgat food shortage, according to Dr. Charles Stelnmetz. “The food problem.” he declared, in an interview with thè United News, "is aster all an energy problem. because thè food we eat is converted in thè body into heat energy and mechanical energy. But thè body is very inefficient in thè kind of fuel it can use, because it can only use thè seeds of certain plants and thè productivity of these flelds is extrertily !ow as already has been shown. Realy Eat Sunlight “In raising wheat, etc., two functions are really performed. The first is collecting thè energy of thè sunlight, which is done by thè plant, and then storing it as Chemical energy in such form that thè human body can see it as food. “Modero industry has reached Ita -ery high efflciency due to übdlvi-

won’t be. But steam from electricity is an interesting topic, tariff or no tariff. Stage Morality IT IS at least refreshing when an educator of such high repute as Richard P. Burton, head oc thè department of literature of thè University of Minnesota, comes to thè defense of moving pieture art. When ever a boy goes wrong thè movies are blamed. When a flapper strays from thè narrow path, thè movies bear thè brunt. When a star upon thè screen is brought into thè limelight by any untoward act, tlie movies as a whole are con dernned. Professor Burton, in speaking before thè Indiana Teachers’ convention here last Saturday, declared: “Moving pictures are terribly crude. It is a baby art, but I am optimistic about it’s future. The moving pictures can never be as immoral as thè spoken stage.” This last statement of thè professor can be borile out by many Indianapolis theatergoers who saw a certain farce comedy here last week of a disgustingly immoral and revoltingly stupid nature.

Too Many Arrests? DO INDIANAPOLIS citizens compare unfavorably with those of other cities in thè matter of abiding by thè law. The city does compare unfavorably in thè matter of arrests, as Mayor Shank has just pointed out. The mayor does not believe this means thè city is worse than other cities. Persons who have followed thè activities of thè police and thè City Court are inclined to agree with him. In an apparent effort to give thè impression of law enforcement aetivity thè police have been making arrests running into thè thousands. In most cases thè offenses have been trivial and a warning or an explanation on thè part of a policeman would have been more to thè point. A large number of arrests does not indicate necessarily, thè enforcement of thè law. Cities where law enforcement is inost effieient show fewer arrests. A better understanding between thè police and officials would lead to a better enforcement of law and order. although it rnight not result il quite so many fees in thè pockets of thè pro.secutor. A Stadium Needed TIIE Butler athlctic fìeld will nold about ll r--000 people. Each football game this year at thè Indianapolis college has been witnessed by large crowds. As thè sea|on advances Butler ha?, been showing increased strength and stili larger crowds will attend thè gaines. The Butler-Wa-bash contest Saturday will be witnessed by all thè football fans who can crowd into thè bleachers at thè Butler Athletic fìeld and there will be many who can not see thè game. What thè Indianapolis college needs is a stadium. At Columbus last Saturday 65,000 people crowded into thè new Ohio State University stadium. Most of these people carne from other cities. They brought money to Columbus that was speut at hotels, cafes and stores. The merchants of thè city Avere benefited. The sartie would be true in Indianapolis when big football games Avere played here if a stadium Avere built for Butler College.

Such production of food would be accomplished directly by Chemical , means, or could be bloehemically accomplished—thè latter method being thè more promising one. It means using living organisms for conversion of Chemical energy into a form we can use as food. “Alcohol is made biochemically, through thè Chemical action of thè micro-organisms of yeast.

things which one has scarcely allowed one’s consclous self to thin\<: of for a moment. During sleep these repressed thoughts and feelings, which may have shocked thè conscious self but have hidden away in thè sub-con-sclous begin to work, for in sleep thè barrier between thè consclous and thè sub-conscìous is broken down. These repressed feelings do not always come to their reai form but presenta themselves in fantastic forms in drearns. Then, too, many drearns are thè reproductions of impressiona received during thè day. There are other theories by those wh<j refuse to accept Freud’s theor.v of represslon as satisfactorily explaining all drearns. Tlius Dr. William Brown says: “The functlon of drearns is to guard sleep. Sleep is an instinct like fear, flight and thè rest, and has a function which has developed in thè course of evolution. At night this instinct of sleep comes into play, but it fìnds itself in conflict with other lnstincts and impulses. Desires, cravings, anxieties, thè memories of earller | days, all of which are thè lower and | fundamental elements of thè mlnd, well up and strive toward consciousness whlle thè main personality is in abeyance. If thoy reach consclousness sleep is at an end, but thè dream, which is a sort of intermediary form of consciousness, intervenes and makes thè impulses innocuous so that sleep persista.” Q. —Is Battling Siki, who knocke l out Carpentier, married to a white woman?

BRITAIN ADOPTS NEW m OF RETRENCIENI Like America, * Empire Is on Way ‘Back to Normalcy,’ Says New Premier. By RALPH TURNERR United, News Staff Correspondent LONDON, Oct. 25. —Great Britain, like America, is now officially on thè way “back to normalcy.” Or, as Andrew Bonar Law, thè new conservative premier, expressed it Monday, England Is in for a policy of “retrenchment at home and stability abroad.” Bonar Law formally accepted thè premiership Monday and thè new conservative regime is about ready for business. This is England’s first conservative government in nearly two decades. Not since Lord Balfour—then just plain Arthur Balfour —resigned thè premiership in 1905, has great Britain had an avowed conservative in thè saddle. From that time until now Downing Street has been held by thè liberals —most of thè time by Herbert Asqulth or Lloyd George, both thè complete antithesls in personality and poiicies to thè new premier. Bonar Law was formally. acclaimed leader of thè conservatives at a party caucus Monday. Immediately theraafter he called at Buckingham Palace and accepted thè premiership tendered by thè King a few days ago. That thè i\ew government will make every effort to complete thè Irish settlement on thè sanie basis as worked out by thè Lloyd George ministry was indicated by Bonar Law’s announcement at thè conservative caucus that thè princlpal business of thè new parliament would be to ratify thè Irish constitution. This constitution, based on thè Anglo-Irish treaty creating thè Irish Free State, embodies thè principles of settlement agreed upon between Lloyd George and thè Free State leader.

AMERICA ORIFTS TOWARD PRE-WAR ATTITUDEjWFFKS Secretary of War Declares Nation Again Becoming Careless as to Future. By United Xews NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—America la drifting back “To its short-sighted, csreless and happy-go-lucky attltude of the early days of the European war” with regard to preparedness, in the opinion of Secretary of War Weeks. This sentiment is being encouraged through diminished military appropriations, Weeks told the New York Post of the Army Ordnance Association at the Army and Navy Club, here, Monday night. Scores Pacifista His address, which scored “thè groups of t£lly pacifista in this country who are seeking universal peace through undermining with their insidious propaganda, the ability of their OAvn country to protect itself,” is the first of a series of appeals by officials of the War Department for increased appropriations and consequent increased personnel. To further national preparedness, he said, two main linea of endeavor must be followed: 1. The United States must have an army of 150,000 men and 13,000 officers, “If we are going to carry out The provisions of the National Dafense Act of 1920.” 2. The Nation-must also concentrate on the industriai phases of preparedness, namely, the development of munitions plants, of air-craft—a phase of preparedness “In some respeets more lmportant than development of man power, because of the great length of time lt requires to prepare industrlally.” Tum to Uninformed “When in every walk of fife we tum lo the expert for advice,” Weeks declared, “AVhy do we tum to the uninformed for advice in matters pertaining to the military? That is just what we are doing. The directing forces of our successful armles in Frai.ce are stili in the liamess. How lutile it is to neglect their opinion and foilow that of some comparatively obscure and totally lnexperienced person, guided largely by prejudice, who happens temporarily to be in an officiai position where he can make his opinions effective.” IF YOU ARE WELL BRED You never make people conscious of your clothes, jewels or the advàntages you have had which were possihle to you because you had thè money to secure them. Rather you rt-lieve self-conscious-ness in others by detracting attention from these things and impressing people with your charm and your thoughtfulness and the innate character you have developed.
