In order that this co-operation may be intelligent, dwellers in a community must be kept informed of health conditions. BuiJetins, either in pamphlet form or published in the local newspaper, must be issued by the adntinistration. Such a bulletin appears from time in. columns of this news ntagazine. One of the most notable conveying health information contributed by the president of the village of Winnetka, appeared recently. It called attention to the important fact that interest il\ public health is now at its highest peak, and a!tributed this intensity of interest to the w1de prevalence of the belief that many diseases can be · controlled. It is wise and good that such facts should !requently be disseminated. It may be JUstly expected that the more community Jnembers know about public health matters, the more promptly and strongly will .t hey co-operate. . Even the sponsor of Shore Lines, that galley of gaiety adjoining us on the east admits that without verse his column lack; appeal. In this one particular 1\fique re· sembles Matthew Arnold, who declared in his classic essay, The Study of Poetry that "h ' ·t e be st poetry will be found to have a power of forming, sustaining, and delighting us, as nothing else can." These testimonies to the value of verse encourage us to prescribe for the exhausted business man not a trip to_French Lick but the reading of three or four of the best English poems. veryw ere you go on· Ole oitli Sliore you will find groups of ·people, old and young, bois and girls, men and women, religious an~ irreligioas, .i n ·dlool and out of schooJ,..i...all practicing plays.

Indeed, if you have never been some.. body other than your every-~~y self you are distinctly lacking. Your n«:,xt-d~r neighbor has been ·shylock, and Bdl Stmmons, the old prospector.

It may seem like a colossal undertaking and may mean quite an out-lay of hard-earned cash, but it is an investment that will bring big returns in satisfaction immediately and far int.o the future. And if you are at all daunted by the difficulties of the undertaking, think of the Burnhams of Winnetka. "A family of six and a paint box." Winnetka to China and then on to what's left of the habitable globe. And they'd go even if they had to mortgage the old homestead. They're going to China first for the very unusual reason that China is the hardest place to get to. So you see that you can go if you just want to. Reading qooks and seeing pictures and. hearing lectures about Europe and Asia aren't in the same class with actually .seeing, hearing, feeling, and smelling these strange lands and peoples.

WHAT COULD BE SWEETER 'l This wanton heaving of high-voltage pineapples upon the front stoops of senatorial and judicial abodes in Chicago, prompts one blatant official to ascribe the outrage to, oh. just the old sympathy stuff to get the votes. Which line of chatter is novel if not incontrovertible logic.

That looked like a real puzzler, but Joe calmly placed the missive on file to await possible future developments. Within a few days he was rewarded with a second letter addressed: "A Collar Gent, Wilmette," and adding: "a tall slim gent." The letters were promptly delivered to A. Cox. a towering and angular gentleman of color, who does a considerable odd job business in \Vilmette. Keep 'em oa, Fd! As the Low Dutch would say, What for kind of weather is this anyhow?

One day almost every auto on the way somewhere, and the next-chains and alcohol! It's this sort of meteorological revolutions that drive the young folk to dr:ink and the old folks to Florida.
