GOOD ADVICE
The following appeared in the
Omaha News recently.The writ-
er is a well known columnist:
"‘‘A twelve-year-old boy hang-
ed himself in New Jersey, ‘be-
cause he had been told he must
sattend the public school instead
■of continuing at the “select
academy.’’
“Some one should have ex-
plained to the boy that the pub-
lic school, better than any oth-
would give him a better
chance of becoming a first-class
American.
“In the public school a boy
Esieets all kinds of Americans,
learns to understand them, and
to realize that he is not better
than some other boy because
bis father happens to have a
little money.
■“The public school is the real
school.”
The so-called “select” school
tends to separate the citizens of
our country into distinct social
classes which is contrary to the
spirit and intent of our insti-
tutions. 1
Doubtless there are “select”
schools in some communities
which are better than the pub-
lic schools, but this is an excep-
tion ,‘c the rule.
The public school system has
developed the best teachers and
■writers on educational subjects
the world has ever had. The
private school teacher is con-
stantly observing the classroom
work of ouV public school teach-
er and consulting our best pub-
lic school authorities for pro-
gressive matter in education.
The private primary and sec-
ondary school is maintained
largely for three ‘reasons: For
exclusive religious • training;
for an opportunity to choose
subject matter not always avail-
able in public schools outside
the regular courses, and to eat-
er to a class of citizens who
think that their children fare
hetteV for one reason or anoth-
er in private schools.
The first reason can not
easily be overcome hi public
schools because of the diverse
religious convictions which pre-
vail. The grounds for the sec-
ond reason are gradually gvow-
mg less as the public schools
grant pupils election of subject
matter.
The basis for the third reason
will grow less in proportion as
the public school system in ev-
ery community provides the
best educational facilities it can
aft: rd.—Exchange.
“It seems to me that econom-
ic society owes the faithful and
efficient worker, three things,
and these ave the highest pos-
sible wage, security of employ-
ment and provision for the days
of retirement.” — 0 w e n D.
Young.
“Humanism sympathizes with
communism’s refusal to accept
orthodox religion, but recog-
nizes that communism itself is
a state religion. It is too de-
structive evocativeness aim initi-
ative to attract us.”Humanist
Dr. Charles Francis Potter.
“Wo glory in the strength of
the athlete. We love above all
else the high moral strength
that can brave the fighting tem-
pests of the world. But we love
weakness too. Weakness gives
us a chance to do something
that is Godlike.”—Dr. Clovis G.

SUNLIGHT is essential
TO BABY’S GROWTH
AND HEALTH
Sunlight is one of the essen-
tials of growth, and the baby’s
life out of doors should begin
early.
When the newborn babe is
two weeks old it should be tak-
en outside for 30 minutes or an
hour, if the weather is pleas-
ant. The amount of outdoor life
gradually should be increased.
The baby ordinarily should not.
be taken outside for an airing
if the temperature goes lower
than 30 degrees.
The sun’s ultra-violet rays,
which prevent rickets, arc
checked by window glass and
clothing. Direct sunlight is
needed. Sun tan is evidence it
has been received. If the weath-
er is moderate, the baby should
begin taking sun baths when it
is three or four weeks old.
In giving sun baths, be" sure
that the baby’s eyes are not
exposed to the direct rays of
the sun, but that the cheeks al-
ternately are. At the beginning
a sun bath should last from 10
to 15 minutes. The time can be
increased gradually.
The. sun baths may be length-
ened until the baby lies in the
sun half an hour in the morn-
ing and half an hour in the
afternoon. The length of time
in the sun depends largely up-
on the season of the year.
In Fall and Winter months
the sun baths, which may be
taken at an open window,
should be supplemented with
cod liver oil, “bottled sun-
shine.” This is to prevent
rickets.
AIR FORCE TO BOMB ROME
On the last three days of this
month Rome will be given a
lesson in the terror that flies by
night in war time. The Fascist
air force will undertake sham
bombings of the city, and elab-
orate instructions are being is-
sued to the people on how to be-
have.
In order to create the greatest
possible resemblance, to a real
attack, bombing planes will re-
lease actual—although weak—
explosives, designed to go off
before striking anything. The
people are strictly forbidden to
go near any of these “bombs”
which fai] to explode, and are
ordered to inform the authori-
ties where the explosives have
fallen.
The city’s life will be virtual-
ly strangled during the “bom-
bardment.” Sirens will warn
of the imminence of danger and
will give “all clear” signals.
Frivate sirens and whistles
must remain silent during these
three days to eliminate confu-
sion.
Whenever screaming sirens
warn of danger,the people must
desert the streets. Pedestrians
must run for cover, Busses,
strept’ cavs, taxis and private
automobiles must stop immed-
iately, and the passengers must
seek the nearest available shel-
ter. In railroad stations the cit-
izenry must obey the orders of
rr.PvT.y employes. During the
danger periods the people are
forbidden to look out of win-
dows o‘r to go on their terraces
or balconies.
For the three nights of the
“attack” public illumination
will be reduced to a minimum,
and during the danger periods
it will be shut ofi: completely.
Private illumination is forbid-
den altogether. Windows must
be protected so that no light
may be visible from the outside.
Special precautions must be
taken to conceal light in fac-
tory buildings, water wovks, gas
and electric plants. The police
ruling, that all buildings must
be locked at 10 o’clock at night,
will be suspended so that citi-
zens may take refuge. Special
penalties will be inflicted on
those who fail to observe the
regulations.

tect pedestrians as well as the

to give the law into the hands of
the mob.”—George Fort Milton,

man of commission studying

definitely, I wouldn’t want a

jecturing on how she would like
to live her life over again.
“Instead of science taking the
place of religion, it is becoming
a help to religion and to my
mind books like those written
by Sir James Jeans on ‘The Un-
iverse’ make incarnation more
credible than before.”—Bishop
of London.

Modem Home Has a Fine Tradition From
Early American
a commentary on the present
j taste for colonial and Georgian
furniture and the colorful opulence
| of the modern American home, it is
j interesting to note that in earlier
days colonial home life progressed
from the beamed ceiling, wide fire-
place, and oak furniture to com-
fortable living rooms very like the
present ones, all within about fifty
years.
The two pictures above are from
James Truslow Adams’ new book,
“The March of Democracy,” just
published by Scribner’s, and which
Is bound in a new type of cloth
which looks and feels like natural
cloth and yet Is so treated that it
resists dampness, the attacks of in-
sects and does not become sticky
from mpist handling. The top pic-
ture shows a room from West Box-
ford, Mass.. 1675 to 1704, and the
lower one. only half a century later,
is from the Jaffrey house, in Ports-
mouth, New Hampshire, 1750.
American interior furnishings
declined in beauty during the Vic-
torian era and later suffered from
an influx of crude craft work. Now
they have reached a plane of charm,
color, and comfort strongly sug-
gestive of what many decorators re-
gard as the best period of American
home art, that from 1750. to 1800.
The use of both wall paper and
painted walls in the same room,
overstuffed furniture and a distinct,
note of warm color are apparent in
the. lower picture. 9
"As we study the rurniture or
rooms of this period," writes Mr.
Adams, "we are struck by their
perfect taste, their dignity and
sense of peaceThis would be re-,
garded by the modern interior dec-
orator as high praise for any room.
