It can be claimed, with high probability, to the result of improved sanitary and housing conditions, of more efficient municiâ€" pal and domestic cleanliness, of education in hygiene, of increased sobriety of the population, and of the widespread awa,keningh to the national importance of child morâ€" tality, with the concentration on efâ€" forts of childâ€"welfare work such as has never previously occurred.‘"‘ ‘‘Infant mortality is higher in urâ€" ban than in rural areas.

The argument which led to the fight started shortâ€" ly before eight o‘clock when the woman asked the accused to take some ice to the refrigerator. When he refused the woman is alleged to have struck him, and when he hit back she fell under the blow, and striking & table broke her neck. As soon as the man saw that he had badly injured the woman he ran out of the hotel, but he was found in his room about three hours later in a bad state of intoxication. He was taken to police headquarters. Uniform System of Administration of Casual Ward Effective.

If any practical utility is found for the aeroplane in times of peace, it ie likely to be in the delivemy of mail, and someâ€" what suggestive of possibilitiee in this direction was the flight made in France a few days ago by Guillaux, It was not a great flight in comparison with the senâ€" sational achievoments of Marcel Brindeâ€" jone des Moulenais, who has doue 887 miles.

But he carâ€" ried with him the Paris papers and dropâ€" ped them at 915 a.m, in Bordeaux, where they do not otherwise arrive till 5§ p.m. A difference of 734 houre in newspaper serâ€" vice is important, and if a fair degree of reliability should be attained a certain limited use could no doubt be found for the flying machine in carrying the mails to territory more or less ingcocessible. The carrying power of the aeroplane is slight, and there would be a premium on comâ€" pact journalism, but @peed in the air coste singularly little, and by dropping bundles at designated places the need for stops could be avoided. But the occagion for aerial service would be mainly in reâ€" gions now accessible only by a slow and ‘‘There has been no greater stringency here," Mr. Meredith said, "than there has been in Berlin, Vienna and London.

Almost every nation is giving heed to sociological questions, especially as they concern the poor and unemployâ€" ed. It would eeem, according to Harper‘s Weekly, that Switzerland has solved one problem in a manner worthy‘ of imitaâ€" tion. It is rather difficult in Switzerland to try to live without working. In that commonwealth the people proceed upon the theory that a man who is unemployed is, if left to himself, liable to become a waste by being a charge and a tax upo® the community. ‘The Swies, therefore, conâ€" sider the problem as an economic quesâ€" tion to be solved by the state.
