interested because it considers complete - birth registration of fundamental importance to child
welfare work.
The Child Is Getting a Chance It has been only a few years ago that maga
zines and newspapers were full of articles plead-
ing with voters -apji4egisiators . to give ine cnuu a chance. The horrible abuses of the cotton mills
of the South, the deeradinir environment of
sweatshops and factories in the industrlalcities
of th East, the horrors of work in the; coal
mines of Pennsylvania and southern Ohio, the
long hours of the boys on the farms all gave
the student of social welfare patent topics for
discussion.
Out of disclosures came sound legislation
that is seeking to correct evils, minimize abuses,
correct faults, and give the American boy and girl a chance to develop mentally and physically
into useful and patriotic citizens of the common wealth.
Publicity has aroused the public to a sense of
the danger lurking in long hours for boys and girls working at tender age in factory and shop,
and tmblic oDinion has forced legislatures to
enact laws designed to curtail these impositions
on "youth, and make both parent and factory owner realize that the state is vitally interested in the welfare of the youth. Forty-five State and territorial legislatures and the Congress of the United States in 1915 passed laws affecting children. Arkansas, Florida and Utah have commissions to report on the needs of the feeble-minded; New Jersey, a commission to prepare a State program for the reoiv ganization of public care of defectives, dependents,' and delinquents ; Missouri and New Hampshire, commissions on the needs of , the blind; Delaware, a commission on vocational education ; Idaho, a commission to report on the need for a minirntim wage law; Florida and Indiana, commissions on the need for mothers' pensions; and California, a commission to study social insurance. rf The appointment of these commissions indicates, a growing realization that benevolent in
tent -can not safely be accepted as a substitute
foT' the careful formulation of statutes for social betterment. -r ,,- Twenty-seven States have amended their provisions for dependent children ; eighteen have improved their treatment of juvenile delinquents; sixteen have strengthened their child labor law; fourteen have concerned themselves with the needs of the mentally defective or feeble-minded ; three T States and the District of Columbia were added to those specifically permitting the use of public school buildings as social centers and nine amended or for the first time passed a playground law; and four States passed a model vital statistics law in which the Children's Bureau is
Studying TeacKert-Pensions Councilman Handley is right in deploring the lack' of attention citiznf"g and in objecting to the criticising these vesper, sons heap upon members of the cotmcil and- other bodies after they have accepted or .rejected a proposal. v:.v-v. -jc The average citizen . believes. , her need not take ; interest in matters I relating to street repairs, park administration, franchise granting, and public utility rates while -they are still before the council. But let that body, after long deliberation and mature reflection, take a decisive step, and the apathetic citizen of yesterday is converted into a vituperative spellbinder and denouncer of the city's officials. . .. . When Mr. Handley, referred . to the movement of; the. teachers to obtain a pension unit here, as a question about which the public and the city officials needed enlightenment, he merely spoke the truth. "He had the right point of view. If the city council had taken action last Monday favoring the proposal, a howl of protest would have arisen from many, citizens who erroneously believe teachers' pensions are a small graft, or that the teachers are receiving something for nothing. ,
The disposition of members of council, as it is reflected from statements they have made since Mr. Handley's statement, is that this body wants enough information regarding the problem so that it can act intelligently if , at any time,
it is called on for an expression.
In order that the whole problem may be put
before the proper authorities. Councilman Howells suggests that Professor Moore of Muncie, who understands the provisions of the recent act, appear before council and the school board and explain its scope. This is a good suggestion. It will give the teachers an opportunity to present their proposal in such a manner that all its provisions will be understood. Professor Moore, with his knowledge of the 'problem; will be able to answer any questions that members of council may want to put. : S -j ".4 ;' There is nothing complicated in a pension system for teachers. With only two exceptions every city in Indiana with a population of 20,000 or more has ' adopted the system, Richmond ought to get into line. V'"'X"LV' '. ... -' ;"

CORN HUSKING FESTIVITIES. The farmer who had a good-sized harn with a wide entry and a bis crib, with corn enough piled in the entry to fill' the crib. , would often. In the early days of Wayne county. Invite his neighbors .within a radius of three, or four miles to a corn husking. Early in the afternoon on the appointed day, a crowd of men and boys would be on hand, and the women and girls would fill the. farm house. 1 . When all were present (wo captains would be chosen, and . they, choosing alternately, would divide the crowd evenly between them. Then the heap of corn was divided as equally as possible by placing a fence rail across the top. at what was agreed to be the middle of the heap; the v captains would- 'draw Straws" for the choice of ends, and the fun began. ' Every one had to "shuck "clean " removing all the husk, and the "silk" also, throwing the corn into the crib and the husks behind them, taking the com from the bottom of the heap, so that none would be left on the ground and passed over, and it was considered a dishonorable
trick to throw unhusked ears back into! the pile of husks. It was the custom j
for each'wtv to boast loudly of t
of proweejst and progress andto-ridi-k
cule gae aoorts of its opponent. party which first undermined the fence rail, so that it feU.'fts.way. was acclaimed as the victor, anefcwben the cotR.wa jU husk4.he two capulns alwava wrestled catch-as-catch-can.Tn
the. pile of husks.. ..Such a party wauldJ
husk during the afternoon onen. several hundreds of bushels of corni4 Then all would go to the . house, where a big supper would be served. Later. In the "big room." the ; young people would dance, or play the old time games, while the older folk would gather before a fire of blazing logs in the immense kitch fireplace, and teU Indian or hunting- stories, or. discuss the news or gossip of the neighborhood. .

r-, FOR A BAD COUGH . . . . . . j " . Here Is a fine old-fashioned recipe for coughs.--colds or catarrh trouble that has been used for many years with great success. Get from your druggist 1 oz. of Pannit (Double Strength) and add to it Plat of hot water and 4 oz. of granulated sugar. Take one tablespoonful 4 times a day. - No more racking your whole body .witha cough. Clogged nostrils should open, air passages of 'your head clear up so you can -breathe freely. It. Is easy , to pre pare, costs little and is pleasant to take. Anyone who has a stubborn cough, , or hard cold or catarrh In any form should give this prescription a trial.
Six Million Dollars in Local Banks The showing by the five Richmond banks yesterday when they submitted for; publication reports of their condition on November 10, pursuant to a call of the controller of the Currency, wa a splendid one. - i-t The five banks shaved a totalf 6,0.74,4250 in deposits, perhaps the high water mark in the city. Compared with December 31, 1914, there was a gain of $550,970. The heavy deposits in local banks speak well for their management and for the confidence which the depositors have in their stability. The gain of a half million dollars in ten months is remarkable. Unless- there have been very heavy deposits by individuals;; it shows that many men and women in this- city ' have learned well the lessons of thrift and are laying aside money Tor use in emergencies or for later investments.
