LEGISLATURE TRUSTED
' 1 ---------
“Legislatures fix the death
penalty for crime and the form
and extent of other punish-
ments. Legislatures regulate
marriages and divorce, proper-
ty rights, decents of property,
care of children and all other
matters between citizens. Why
are our legislatures not compe-
tent to decide what kind of
schools are needed, the require-
ments of teachers, and the kind
of instruction that shall be giv-
en.”
Boards of education act un-
der authority of the legislature
and finally of the people them-
“If the number of scientists
is put at 11,000, it makes about
one scientist for very 10,000 peo

“A teacher must respect the

subjects upon which the employ

tion. The same logic would
suggest that a teacher receiving
pay in dollars on which is stamp
ed ‘In God We Trust’ should
not be premitted to teach in the
class room that there is no God.

Bible is not true. That is the
Tennesse case. Evolution dis-
putes the Bible record of man’s
creation, and the logic of the
evolutionist eliminates as false

ily resurrection of Christ.”
Christians build their own col
leges to teach Christianity and
atheists and agnostics build
their own schools to teach what
they believe.

FIVE HEALTH RULES FOR
THE RURAL CHILD
1. Every rural child should be
assured of safe drinking water.
This means that wells should
have tight curbings, shouldbe
protectd from surface drainage
and should yield potable water
to which germs of sickness are
denied access.
2. The health of the rural chil
will best beprotected if the milk
that he drinks is clean and
comes from cows which have
passed the tuberculin test.
3. Evrey rural school should
give Its children training In the
health habits and health facts
which will bring the greatest
store of vigorous health. Since
proper hours and conditions of
sleep, well chosen meals rich in
fruits, vegetables and milk, and
abundant joyful outdoor play
are cornerstones of personal
health, the rural school should
teach the value to the parents
as well as children. No man
lives to himself alone, every-one
to develops a readiness to o-’within
bey the county health laws. FIn figure
ally, the rural child has a right
to a good school house and well
trained teacher who is eager
and able to lead her children
happy aoing the road to health
4. The rural child has less op
portuityn for a physical exami-
nation than the child in the city
This should be changed. Exam
inations, preferably by the fam
ily or school physician, or in-
spections by nurse or teacher in
structed along these lines, sho-
uld be given to every rural
school child, so that poor eye-
sight, decayed teeth, and other
defects can be found and cor-
rected early in life before perma
nent damage to health results.
5. The rural child should have
the benefit of the thought and
planning of a well trained, con-
scientious health officer, who
gives his full time to safeguard-
ing and building up the health
of the children, mothers and
fathers of his country.

NEW STORY
The Ford Motor Company set
a new record for production
Tuesday, May 19th, when Its as
sembly plants turned out 7,858
Ford Cars and Trucks in the
eight-hour working day. This
record is for the United States
plants aloe annd does not in-
clude foreign plants and associ-
ates companies or the Ford Mot
or Company of Canada, Ltd.
An interesting thing in con
nection with this remarkable
production is that the company
is exceeding \ its most careful
estimates for May. Current
Ford Billboards which were pre
pared sixty days ago, carry the
message "7,000 More Sice Yes
terday" But in act ial output
the company exceededthis by
850.
Production of the company
has been steadily increased dur
Ing the last few weeks due the
the growing spring business and
new output record have been
frequent, but none approaching
within 100 of the remarkable
- j of Tuesday.
On April 28th, the domestic
plants beat a record of 7,482 est
ablished a year ago by assembl-
ing 7,594 cars and trucks. This
record stood until May 12th
when production went to 7,732.
