Keepiig a child home and iso-lated means keeping him away from all other children. It does not mean keeping him from school, then taking him over to a neighbor or relative to visit, or letting him go to Sun-day School, or picture shows, Neither does it mean letting neighbors or relatives visit him. Measles is a serious disease and exposure to it and exposing others to it must be avoided. It is a dangerous and wrong view often expressed, that the child might as well have measles and be over with it. Pvealize the fact that measles kills more of our young children than any other disease, except possibly whooping cough. No matter how careful and watchful the teacher is. No mat ter how hard the nurse works. No matter how prompt or how vigorous the quarantie is, this disease cannot be controlled at all without the sincere coopera-tion of the parents. Remember that it is some-body's lack of knowledge, care-lessness, or indifference that is responsible for every case of con tagious disease. We know that with the ear-nest cooperation of the parents Relativity. "Man wants hut little here below." The earth, after all.

When you are in the mood to criticize this country harshly stop and think, think of Ger-many, where numberless child-ren have never had enough to eat since they were born. Think of America with its fields of grain, her stores filled with food and her schools full of happy healthy children and realize our advantages are many, with our disadvantages few. LET'S BE AMERICAN An Italian woman at Salt Lake this week remarked "1 don't give a darn tor this countryanyway" She will be turned over to the U. S. Oi'licials and it is hoped will be sent back to that land from which she came and when she arrives there will no doubt real-ize the wonderful privilege ahe has had taken from her. Sometimes we are prone to forget our great privilege. We fret because our officials don't do this or that. We complain about the high taxes, about the laws that are made by the major ity, about the way these laws are enforced. At times we don't fancy the way the city, the coun ty, the state or the government are run. We don't like this or that man in power. We grieve because the rich man grows richer. We sulk because we are poor and ' can't have the luxuries that our neighbors all'ord. Our Government system is not perfect no government is per-fect, nor ever will be. Perfec-tion in anything is never attain-ed. Everything can be improv-ed in some way, but we must not rave because things do not be-come perfect more rapidly, k , There is nothing probably that 1 would make you love America 7 more, to revere this Nation more fk than to leave its shores and go abroad for, say one year.

EDITORIAL I The Reunion in a J Hospital J I By JUSTIN WENTWOOD J . 1IU4, Waatero Newipapor Union.) TITTLE was known about the private life o the head surgeon at the hospital, Brlerley, except rhat he hud been married and now lived alone In a fine apartment In a fash-ionable part of the town. Thus he was Invested by the nurses with a certain air of romance. He was a quiet man, very skillful, and little given to con-versation. In the course of a life a man dis-ciplines himself to bear the shocks of life. There was now little that was able to disturb Brlerley's equanimity, and the one thing thnt did disturb It nobody knew about. Tliut was operations on children. Hardened, ua the surgeon must be, he could never use the knife upon a child without a sense of horror at the seurrlng of the little form. And into the face of each child he gazed with a sort of wistful tenderness which the nurses had observed. Children were fond of him, too. It was only with them that he was apt to relax a little. Then a light came Into his eyes, a new note Into his voice, which was Instantly suppressed when any oue observed him. Now, fastening his white garment round him, ho was watting for the child to be wheeled Into the operating theater. He had heard the choked cry as the gas mask was put over Its head and mouth then nothing. And now the door was opening, and the uncon-scious child was being wheeled in. A child mangled by the truck under which it had run In play. A child poorly dressed, but of decent par-entage, and clean, save for the blood Unit disfigured It. Ribs had been crushed and the operation must be a scientific one. He worked with little hope, but as he proceeded he saw that there was hope after all. Miraculously certain the arteries and vital organs had been spared. The assistant said afterward that he had never seen any Job quite so completely done. lie was afraid the operation was lasting too long the strain would be too great Brlerley quietly Ignored tils protests. And, as he worked, the nurse re-moved the ether mask for adjustment, and Brlerley looked for a moment Into the child's face. And nothing In his steady movements Indicated the sud-den terror that had come to him. For this was the child that he had always dreamed of, with the flaxen curls and wide, blue, staring eyes and that little curve of the Jaw God, how he had seen It In his dreams I His child, this little waif ought to have been. i The old pang. How foolish! He must try to conquer those Impulses that gripped him when he operated on children. Still, this one was so close to his heart. He must save It I The operation was over. Ttye child wus wheeled away. "Telephone me," said Brlerley to the matron. She looked at him In surprise. "About the chilif?" she asked. "Yes, yes, of course 1 I want to know how it gets along. A fine little boy." She telephoned that night The child was holding his own. But Brlerley could not go to bed for thinking of It He wanted to see It again, that little curve of the Jaw. Upon some pretext he went to the hospital late. '"I'll have a look at the boy," he told the matron. "How Is he?" "Why, doing very nicely, Dr. Brler-ley. Will you go up?" He went up In the elevator. A woman In black was seated at the child's side, holding the feverish little hand. The child's eyes were open, and he wus muttering. She bent over him. Brlerley sat down on the bedside and felt the pulse. He knew all this wax fate It was fate thut had drawn him there. The woman had not looked at Mm yet. She turned her face. She started, tittered a little cry. "Will he live? Will he live?" "lie's going to live," answered Brler-ley. "I shall see that he lives." And for three nights until far Into the morning he sat by the child's bed-side. On the fourth morning recovery was assured, "He'll live for you, Estelle," said Brlerley In a cold, dogged way. "I've been glad to see him and learn about him" "I want him to live for you, too, John. I was mad and unforgiving and I've been teaching him to call you father." 4 Y .,... $ A Few Words I Caused a Fight J By ANTHONY REIMERT J , 124, Wwtern Newnpaper Union.) WOMAN'S scream was the first A thing that directed attention to It. I'asslng pedestrians looked up and stopped appalled by what they saw. On the girder outside the nineteenth story of the new building, now in course of construction, two men were engaged In a battle. Upon that narrow strip of steel they fought, dashing their fists Into each other's faces, clawing at each other; and at last, locked In a death-gri-they seemed to rest absolutetly Im-mobile, so tense was the struggle. In a moment the street was packed with a dense mob of people. The po-lice reserves cume at a run. Five policemen, accustomed to braving dizzy heights, started on the upward way, in the faint hope of arresting the fight before a fatal termination oc-curred. And that seemed Impossible, for the combatants had again broken loose from their stranglehold, and were pounding each other about the face and body. Work had stopped for the day; they were the only two workmen left. Who were they? The foreman, who ap-peared to minimize the situation ex-plained. Bob Connelly and Bill Jen-kins, two of his steadiest and best men. They owned their little homes In one of the suburbs, and raised chickens! A very pastoral occupation for those two desperate, rocking fig-ures nbove. "What's the quarrel about, fore-man?" "Blamed if I know." "Have they been enemies " "Best of friends." Meanwhile the five policemen were progressing on their upward way. All hRd been engaged In the same hazard-ous occupation as the combatants be-fore Joining the force. And still the battle raged, and neither man would give an Inch. The police were draw-ing nearer now. A groan of horror went up from the mob as the two men became locked In a stranglehold again. And now It could be seen thnt one of them was down down on his back upon that narrow girder, and the other was kneeling over him and pounding him. Merciful heavens, was there ever such a battle as that before? The under-ma-n, with a supreme ef-fort, had regained his stance. Again the fight raged, nammer and tongs! Hammer and tongs! But now the po-licemen's heads appeared upon the nineteenth story. The hearts of the watchers In the street below stood still as they looked on. Would they be In time to separate the two Infuriated men? Would they not perhaps be hurled to a grisly death on the sidewalk below, crushed bone and flesh? The policemen were approaching the pair cautiously, two on one side, three on the other. Now! This was the su-preme moment ! The watchers gasped. Then suddenly It was over. The fighters had sprung apart, and seven men were In a wordy argument upon the girder. And now they were descending. The fight was over. The spectacle had come to an end. There was to be no death. No sudden horror of crushed bodies that would have given the final thrill to those watching multitudes. The crowd began to disperse under the urging of the police reserves. But a little knot of people still remained standing at the foot of the building, waiting for the combatants to emerge. What had they fought about? A girl, of course. There was always a woman at the bottom of anything like that. And now the brave policemen ap-peared on the ground floor, escorting their prisoners amiably enough. The men were putting on their coats. There was a rush forward. The police pushed the crowd back. Only one man was permitted to go forward to meet the party. He was the superintendent of the building, agi-tated, stammering: 1 "Sergeant, what was It about?" "Why, It wasn't nothln'. They had a few words, that's all." "Just a few words, me and my friend Jenkins," grinned Connolly out of a bloody face. "Danger? Sure, there wasn't any danger. We never thought of that. Guess we wasn't In danger, was we, BUI?" "But what was It about?" "Why, he said his Rhode Island Reds was better layers than my White Leg-horns, and I called him a liar!" Get the Air.

Open-hnnde- Americans are the most lavish users of pencils In the world, the United States alone usln twice as many as all Europe, said Lothar W. Fnher, the "I'encil Kln." "The European uses n pencil until there Is barely anything for him to hold In his flnfters," said Mr. Taber, "while the American throws It awny when It Is hardly more than half used. America uses about a million and a half gross a year, nine or ton pencils per eaplta. Europe uses only about half that amount." High Heels an Old Fashion. According to books on costumes of the past centuries high heels were worn by women during the reign of Charles II, In the Fourteenth century. They seem to have attained their greatest helKUt wid popularity In the relpi of Louis XIV and Louis XV of France. Inirlng the latter period dress accessories were greatly exag-gerated, the headdress being some-times several feet In height, and the width of the dresses and the height of the heels of shoes exaggerated accord-ingly. It Is probable that the term "Louis" clung to the highest French heels for this reason. Frante Offers Motor Prize.
