TRAGEDY T0 GRO“' UP.
The library of a nearby city re-
cently made a survey of the demand
for books in its children's depart-
ment and came to the rather sur-
prising discovery thst “Huckleberry
Finn" ranked below “Peter Pan."
This is surprising chiefly because
we have always considered Mark
Twain's masterpiece one of the
greatest children's books ever writ-
ten. But. when you stop to think
it over. Peter Pan's success isn’t so
startling as it seems.
Because Peter Pan treats of a
theme that has always been close to
our hearts-.the story of the boy who
never grew up.
Now if you look clOsely it may oc-
cur to you that this isn't altogether
flattering to the civilization that we
have achieved.
Why is it that all of us wish. at
times. that we had never had to
grow up? Isn't it because. subcon-
sciously. we have found that life
isn't quite the glittering. lived-ham
plly-ever-after affair we used to
think it was?
For an illustration, consider those
exhibitions of class room work that
our public schools hold every so oft-
en.
You find many children grouped
together. each neat and shining in
his very best suit. Look them
over and you can find little differ-
ence. Billy. the banker’s son. rubs
elbows with Izzy. the tailor's boy.
while George. the colored kid. jokes
with Frank. whose father is a doc-
tor. The youngsters have equality.
And each one. very likely. is look-
ing forward to the time when he will
be a man!
Fortunately. these youngsters don‘t
know what‘s ahead of them. They
can't see that life is going to rob
them of that precious. care-free
equality; that'pudgy, good-natured
Billy is going to become a dyspeptic.
irritable old broker; that serious lit-
tle Johnnie is going to become a
teacher and fret his life away in a
dual war with penury and human
dumbness: that Hal will be sent to
the electric chair inside of 15 years:
that Peter and Ralph and Ike and
Bert are going to be shot to death
in some flea-infested trench fighting
a war ten thousand miles away; that
a couple of dozen more will toil for
years in poverty and drudgery and
that another will become rich and
detested. ‘
They can't see all that. They can't
knorv that life will very soon cease.
to be a simple matter; that it is go-
ing to become a blind. puzzling strug-
gle in which even such Opposites as
right and wrong can‘t often be dis-
tinguished plainly: that the whole-
some understanding and uusllsplc-
ious acceptance of each other which
holds good on the playground must
be abandoned for cynicism and dis-
trust: that each of them will live
to see most of his dreams dissolve
and will find that each passing year
brings more loneliness.
Whose fault is it that these things
must happen to these unsuspecting
youngstersoiust as they happened to
all of us? Nobody's in particular.
It's just that we have made for our-
selves the kind of a. world in which
such things are inevitable.
And so when We say that we want
to make this a better world to live
in. one of the things we mean is that
it must be a world in which it is
never a tragedy to grOw from a boy
into a man.

when the resisting power of

ily indicated. The normal resistance
of the body must be restored by na-
tional living. This is accomplished
by rest. fresh air. proper diet. one

the patient has the will power and
moral courage to follow strictly hls
physician‘s directions.
It is necessary for the patient to
have a correct menial attitude. He
must have an intelligent under-
standing of the serious nature of his
disease and the principle of treat-
mont. No reasonable sacrifice is too
great to pay for the cure desired.
There is a widespread bellow that
certain climates are a cure for lu.’
berculosis. But all authorities re-
cognize that proper treatment is
more important than climate. There
is 'no specific climate and you can
recover where you now reside. if
You can recover anywhere.
Recovery depends upon yourself.
With the many public tuberculosis
hospital now in existence. it is
usually possible for a patient to ob.
tain several months of snnitnrium
treatment. This is very desirable in
order that you may obtain the cure-
ful teaching and. training of physi-
cians and nurses. in how to conduct
and regulate your life for the best
results.
When you leave the snnltnrlum
to continueyour treatment at home.
you will know you must live to ob-
tain a complete recovery. The near-
er you can bring your home treat-
ment to the sanitarium standard,
the more satisfactory will be the re-
sults.
Upon returning to the home. the
advice of a competent physician
should be obtained, and his direc-
tions strictly followed. Your doctor

must be under the careful supervi-
'sion of the physician at all llnrss.
Only plain food such as steaks.

polatoes. green vegetables, whole
grains. and a moderate amount oi
fruit should be taken. No knick-
kllucks, no alcohol, and no cxccsscs

The patient should strictly avoid
any article of diet. which he knows
by previous experience to be de-
trimeniul; Too much food may be as
harmful as too little. it is not neces-
sary to get fat to cure tuberculosis.
Excessive quantities of ,food produce
digestive disturbances. harmful to
the patient. Regularity of meals is
essential and they should be at lr-nst
five hours apart.
While the putient should remain
in the open air as much as possible.
he must be comfortable. He must
have adequate protection of the
body to keep him warm. In winter
he shrould wear loose fitting woolen
garments and socks: There should
be dbuble mattresses on the bed. or
woolen blankets next to the spring.
There should be as much protection
under the pullout as over him. Ear
muffs. night caps. and sweaters add
to the comfort and protection of tho
patient when required especially for
outdoor life.
Adequate rest in n. reclining posi-
t-lon in the open air is essential. This
should be continued until the fmer
