Health Supervision of Children.
That sDecial medical attention should be
given to children in the four or five early years before school begins is asserted by Dr. David Forsyth, an English physician, whose, views are published in a bulletin just issued by the United States Bureau of Education. Dr. Forsyth declares-that medical inspection of elementary, school children points to a widespread physical deterioration during the first four or five years of life, which leaves the majority of children with serious but preventable defects. "Little or nothing has been done as yet by way of solution," says Dr. Forsyth. "Preventive measures limited to the first years are unlikely to have much influence in warding off later troubles. A gap, at present unabridged, stretches from the first year to the fifth, when the school medical inspection begins." As a suggested remedy Dr. Forsyth describes
a plan adopted in the city of Westminster, Eng
land.. In January, 1912, a medical inspection cen
ter was" opened for children, of school, age in the north half of the city. Here a staff of health visitors is maintained, to get into touch at once with every family where a child is newly born. Through this staff every child in the district is kept under medical supervision from the time of its birth until the end. of its fifth year, the purpose being to hand the 'child over sound "and healthy, to the school authorities. ; Of 374 children examined during the first year of the center, 131 were under 1 year of age.
77 under z years, 83, 50 and 6d under 3, 4 ana o years, respectively. The medical record cards showed a rapid rise in the tide of disease - with each year of life. It was found that whUe most children in the first period are healthy, only, a
small minority come through to the fifth year without at least one physical defect of some kind. Dr. Forsyth concludes: "Large numbers of children, healthy in all respects at birth, become within five years the physically defective en
trants whom the education authority js required, at no small cost, to restore; so far as possible, to their original state of health. Yet most of these cases are preventable, or, if taken in time, can be remedied more speedily, and therefore more cheaply, than, if left until school age, by which time not a few will have received permanent damage physical or mental. The problem of the defective child largely resolves itself into the problem of the under-school age child, and seems hardly likely to be solved by anything short of a general plan insuring to all children regular medical supervision from birth to school age. And this, to be fully successful, must run side by side with educational measures for instructing the mothers themselves who, from ignorance far more than from willful neglect or even from in
digence, are unable to safeguard their children's

It Is significant that an equal suff

rate for the year 1913 was the lowest in Washington of all the st-.tes and In Seattle cf all the cities, being over 8 per 1000.

RICHMOND REMAINS
TO RAVAGE
OF SKATING MANIA
Conservatism has thus far served as
an impregnable carrier between Rich
mond and the roller skating craze which is sweeping this section of the
country, spreading with the speed of
a pestilance. How long Richmond can maintain its poise and walk se
dately to and from work and social functions, while neighboring cities
are whirling about on rollers remains to be seen. It is going to prove a severe ordeal as the mania is drawing nearer. Connersville is the latest city to report an epidemic of rollerltis. Every body is skating there, just as everybody is doing at Dayton and half a dozen other cities in western Ohio. Children, young people and middleaged parents are all rolling. So many persons of all ages are skating that it is almost unsafe for persons- to walk on the sidewalks of Dayton. At Connersville the rapid spread of the roller fever has caused the police chief to issue warnings to both parents and children that they must keept out of the street, and that they must skate always on the right side of the walks to avoid collisions.

The New York press is certainly awake to the value of suffrage news.
The Evening Post Issued a mammoth cuffrage edition, two ten page sections recently. The Poughkeepsle Courier also brought out a special suffrage edition lately. Puck's suffrsge number of February 16, is already famous. More than firtv nn-RtAte naDers are giving

KNIGHTS GIVE DEGREE

At this meetiug the Knight rank will be conferred upon a class of five candidates and a banquet enjoyed following the work. Many from lodges in the surrounding towns of the county will be present.

The following Wednesday three candidates will be given the Page rank.
GRAVE TOO SHORT.

GOOD SHOW DRAWS VERY SMALL HOUSE
Probably the best production shown in Richmond this year in a theatrical line, May Robson in Martha-By-The-Day at the Gennett theatre Saturday was attended by small, but appreciative audiences at both performances. The company deserved good patronage. The entire cast was strong and the play was well balanced. While it was a comedy, few persons In the audience were dry-eyed through the . whole show. Martha's cheerful way of dispelling the fears of the members of her family over their poverty, and her loyalty and the quaint way In which she expressed her big-hearted ideas and sentiments, had a wholesome effect. Perhaps the close proximity of Easter kept many persons from attending the play. .

f "The Resurrection of - Christ the Foundation Fact of Christianity." was the theme- of the Easter- sermon by Rev. Harry C. Harman, at the First Methodist church' yesterday.- The speaker showed the necessity for a firm' foundation as a basis for- the building up of the structure of the Christian faith, and said that the three basic facts upon which the Christian belief were based, were the incarnation of Christ. His Crucifixion and the resurrection. "With these facts established, they in turn establish certain facts which
have had a vast influence . upon the Christian religion," said the speaker. The change that came over the disciples after His resurrection was given as ample proof of this. For although they had denied Him before Hio death, following the resurrection they be-
