Health of School Children Better
Protected Here Than Abroad
By Frofessor LEO BURGERSTEIN of the Royal University, Vienna
The united states is moving forward rapidly toward
THE ZENITH IN THE MODERN ERA OF PROGRESSIVE EDUCA
TION. I CAN ONLY PREDICT THE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF
•THINGS THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN" FOR AMERICANS YEARS BE
FORE THE OLD WORLD HAS REALIZED THAT IT IS BEING OUT
DISTANCED.
In ventilation, school buildings, lighting systems, co-operation of va
rious states and the installation of innovations such as the single desk
and open air school ideas the United States outrivals European improve
ments. Open air schools are IDEAL METHODS OF INSTRUC
TION'.
The interest displayed by people of wealth is one of the factors
which have made improvement in the conditions of your country re
markable.
The hygienic importance of the single seat idea as practiced in nearly
all American schools cannot be overestimated. Children sitting alone
are less liable to infection.
The highly polished wire glass windows used in the school buildings
of America are also a vast asset to the health of the school child. This
glass produces more and BETTER LIGHT. As a result children do
not suffer as much from eye strain. BLACKBOARDS ARE A MIS
TAKE, ns the boards, in many cases covering one entire wall of the
schoolroom, consume a great deal of light. White boards are ideal.
Black crayon makes the writing on these as prominent.
Only Strongest Measures Can
Put Check on Occupational
Diseases
By Dr. JOHN B. ANDREWS. Secretary of the American Association
For Labor Legislation
FROM sickness alone our mere monev loss each year is. TllKhJv
QUARTERS OF A BILLION DOLLARS. Conservative Ameri
can authorities declare that at least one-fourth of this annual loss,
approximately two hundred million dollars, CAN BE PREVENTED.
Recently there has been a remarkable development of interest in oc
cupational diseases, of which "phossy jaw," lead colic, miners' asthma,
hatters' shakes, potters' rot, boilermakers' deafness and brass workers'
chills are merely suggestive.
The medical director for the Pennsylvania East river tunnels in 1909
reported 3,G92 cases of the "bends" or compressed air illness. There are
scorcs of industrial poisons, one of which alone, lead, is in daily use in
more than one hundred and fifty trades.
These spectacular effects of occupational disease are trivial compared
with the gradual lowering of vitality caused by the dailv breathing of
IMPURE AIR AND BY CONTINUAL OVERSTRAIN.
THE PREVENTION OF OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE IS TOO GREAT
AN UNDERTAKING TO BE LEFT ENTIRELY TO INDIVIDUAL ACTION.
NOT ONLY ON ACCOUNT OF THE MAGNITUDE OF THE PROBLEM,
BUT ALSO BECAUSE OF ITS NATURE, THE PREVENTION OF OC
CUPATIONAL DISEASES IS PROPERLY A FUNCTION OF THE GOV
ERNMENT.
TAKE IT IN" TIME.
Just as Scores of Alaskan People
Have.
Waiting doesn't pay.
If you neglect kidney backache,
Urinary troubles often follow.
Act in time by curing the kidneys
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially
for wekaened kidneys.
Many people in this locality rec
ommend them.
Here's one case:
.Mrs. O. L. Ryniiing, 5445 South
M. St., Tacoma, Wash., says: "Off
and on for eighteen yea 1-3 I suffer
ed trom kidney complaint and in
flammation of the bladder. The
trouble was so bad at times that
I couldn't keep on my feet. There
was torturing pains I11 my back
and I was so l::me that I could hard
ly stoop or straighten. When I sat
down, I couldn't get up without a
great effort. I was all run down. I
didn't rest well and a too frequent
action of my kidneys bothered me
I tried many doctors, but their med
iclue dldn'- do me any good. At
last I pot to I'sing Doas' Kidney
Pills and I found them to be the
remedy I needed. They helped me
from the first. My kidneys were
strong'tuned an'I the torturing- pain
and lameness wont away. I have
sincc 'jc*n al:V to sleep -veil and
get around to do my work without
suffering.
