, It Pays to Be Healthy Every one knows that if he is sick he s cannot work, or if he is on his job his efficiency is impaired. It pays bo be healthy. Multiply this dictum indefinitely and apply it to a city, and you will find that it also holds true. New York is finding out that it pays to be healthy. More than 6,000 cases of infantile paralysis with 1300 deaths has created a reign of terror among mothers. They are staying at home with their children. They will not shop in the big stores, fearing that some of their children may ' be exposed to the dreaded disease. Little towns in New Jersey have placed an embargo on New : York and mothers in these places are buying at home instead of going to the big New York stores. New York merchanats are losing thousands of dollars because of the plague. The whole city is learning the truth that it pays to be healthy. Physicians have been unable to trace the origin of infantile paralysis, but the clean-up that was ordered shortly after the plague broke out indicates that sanitation is a pretty important factor in staying its ravages. A clean city, then, is essential if disease is to be checked. Dr. Hurty's view that the time is at hand when a city will spend as much money in policing its health as it does in policing lives and property, is being appreciated more and more.

Crisis in Newspaperdom The white paper situation has reached a crisis in the newspaper publishing business that is causing sleepless nights to many American publishers. A number of old and well established newspapers are unable to meet the situation and are facing a dubious future. Not only has the price of white paper gone up to such a high figure, that it has become prohibitive, but a scarcity of paper itself exists, adding worry and care to the publisher's mind. The Mobile Register believes that the situation is one of the most serious the publishers have ever met. It says editorially: In a number of cities the publishers are meeting the situation by raising the price of their papers, by increasing the price of advertising and by practicing economies in the size of .the paper. In Philadelphia, where there are seven or eight-of the most prosperous papers in this country, the publishers have all agreed to reduce the number of pages per week printed to eighty or less, and not to print a Sunday paper over this size. This means that instead of fourteen, sixteen, eighteen, twenty and twenty-four page daily papers, Philadelphia will have to be content with ten and twelve page papers. New York papers have taken similar though not so drastic action, and the publishers by states are meeting and taking up the question. What is coming no one can tell, but the Register believes that the newspaper of tomorrow in this country will be a strictly news paper, with news edited closely so as to give something of all of the report, but not in such great length as now. The situation is so serious that the best thought of the publishing world is studying it in all ifos intricacies as never before, and until paper j

gets cheaper and some substitute raw material for 'its manufacture is found, it is going to continue to be a sleep-taking problem.

Smart Alecks Every community harbors a few of this tribe. They believe they know everything. They would not admit that there is a subject on earth about which they are ignorant. It is better to say you didn't know than to say you do, and try to bluff the consequences. It's no disgrace -not to know everything. It took hundreds of wise men, each

.doing his share of work, to produce the facts

compiled in the Britanica. One man cannot know everything.

COUNTY TO OPEN HIGHWAY BOND BIDS TUESDAY

Larger premiums than have ever been offered before for Wayne county township road bonds are expected by Albert Chamness, county treasurer, on the Jeckson, Center and Green township bonds tomorrow. Mr. Chamness has been informed that there is a great demand for these bonds. The reason cannot be explained for this demand usually comes early In the year just before assessments are made.

AT AGE OF 99 COUNTY'S OLDEST RESIDENT DIES

John Mattix, Wayne county's oldest resident, died today as a result of a paralytic stroke at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Mary E. Graham, 1111 Sheridan street, in his one hundredth year. He celebrated his ninety-ninth birthday June 22, this year. He realized shortly after he was stricken with paralysis, five week3 ago, that his death was near and Informed, his children that, he was ready to meet the Reaper, but expressed regret that he could not live until he had rounded out a century of existence. Lives Long on Farm. Mr. Mattix was a retired farmer, having lived most of his life on a farm near Eaton, O. He had been a resident of Richmond for seven years. He was born in Butler county, Ohio. During his long life he was seldom ill and his most protracted period of sickness, prio to his paralytic stroke five weeks ago, was three days. He frequently informed members of his family that he believed his fondness for onions was, to a great extent, the secret of his long life and perfect health. On July 4, this year, Mr. Mattix observed the holiday by traveling to the home of his son, John Mattix, Jr., New Westville, O., and from there to Eaton, where he visited his son, Joseph. It was in Eaton that he was stricken with paralysis. Recalls World Events. "Father enjoyed all of his faculties almost to the time of his death. He was fond of reading and had good eyesight," said John Mattix, Jr., today. "He was always greatly interested in world events and had a remarkable memory. He was 44 years old when the civil war started." Any normal man who has regular habits, eats wholesome food, and is not afraid of manual labor, can live to a ripe age, the centenarian frequently said. His one dissipation was tobacco. Mr. Mattix is survived by three daughters, Mrs. Charles Johnson, Layering, Mont; Mrs. Mary E. Graham, Richmond, and Mrs. John Marks, Weston, O., and by three sons, Squire Mattix, College Corner O.; Joseph Mattix, Eaton, and John Mattix, Jr., New Westville. The funeral will be at 1111 Sheridan street, 1:30 Tuesday afternoon. Burial at Eaton, Ohio.

RURAL FOLKS JOURNEY TO CITY FOR EVENTS; CITY FOLKS LEAVE

rIANAGER SCORE

NATION'S ATTITUDE TOWARD JAPANESE

"Nothing menaces our peace with Japan more than the discrimination of the United States against the Oriental citizen," said Dr. J. O. Jordan, platform manager of the Chautauqua, in his address on "The Old Immigration and the New," last night. The physical and moral test used in the admission of immigrants at the present time was declared to be inadequate. The literacy test and discrimination against certain nationalities were denounced. "The only practical basis of restriction is one proposed by Dr. Gulick, the missionary. He suggests that we have a yearly census of all residents born in foreign countries, then strike a percentage and allow immigration from each country in proportion to that percent," he said. "After the great war there will be more immigration than ever."
