XXXIX NAZARETH, PA., THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 11, 1930 No. 48 FLIES Motoring through Connecticut the other dsy I stopped for a bite in a good-sited town. To my ania/cment, the principal restaurant of the place was swarming with (lies, which were crawling unrestrained over the food, I did not eat there. The danger of flies seems not yet to have penetrated everywhere. It has been said by snmeone that it takes three generatir-ns fr>r aqy new {act to filter down through all levels of intrlliKence to the Uiwcst, It is less tluin forty years since the dis¬ covery was made that flies are tlic chief carriers of tyiihoid fever. In the his cities ami in most pro¬ gressive small tiiwiis, public health authorities now ciiniiM-l tlie covering of garhaKC and uther filth in wliiili flies breed. The autonidbilc h,is d^nc a great deal, practically eliminaliitk' the horse stable, once the flies' chief breeding grmiiid. In the general cican-up of Kuroj)* since the war long steps have been taken, nntil there is at least one town in Italy, Monte- catini, which boasts that it has not a single fly! HELIOPHOBES Are you a heliophile or a hclio- phobe? Everylnxly is one or 'he other. Hell ophites love the tuns!|».i and thrive under .exposure to tun- light, Heliophobes arc the unfortun¬ ate blondes who du not tan but burn and blister and scmietimcs Itecome seriously ill in the effort to ac<|uire the golden-brown skins of the more fortunate heliophiles, A skin specialist in a New York hospital estimates that more than 200,000 working days are lost in that city every year from illness due to sunburn. These heliophohc sutTerers are usually «f the blonde Nortli Eurojiean and Scandinavian type, com¬ ing from a stock bred for countless jcnerations in the hiKh lati*.«des where sunlight is scanty and indirect. The perfect heliophile, on the other Iraml, usually has a strain of .Mediterranean bloo<l, Italian, Grctk, Spanish oi Semitic DREAMS "One must have some dariti^-^ if one is to live one's dreams," said Cip- tain Wolfgang Von Gronau as i'e landed his Hying boat in New York harbor after flying over from Ger- nany by way of Iceland, Greenland and Labrador, This pioneer of a new trans-Atlantic air route dared to try 1.0 realise a dream which he had had for ysara All have dreams of things we w<nild like to do; few of us have the dar¬ ing to attempt to make the dreams come true, "Many loved truth, and lavished Lifes best oil Amid the dust of books to find her," So wrote James Kiissell Lowell in his great Commemoration 0<le. But the poet saw the truth clearly: "They love her best who to them- mIvcs are true And what they dare to dream of, dare to do," BANKING One of the things which is ceriair to change greatly m the course oi tic: next few years is the banknii; bus¬ iness in the smaller communities. The amall local bank has i,(Jt facili¬ ties, in most instances, to t,ike care of the legitimate business needs of r.s conununity. Some system which uiil distribute credit ci|ua.ly over the whole nation at all seasons will bo worked out. In Congress, wliere fhe final answer will he given, the contest is Ijciw'cii "chain" baiikiuK ,iiid branch I aiik- ing. with branch banking in the load. One member of LUnKress has iu«- gestcd that branch banks on wheels- armored cars—ni,iy eventually travel between banking centers and the smallest villages, transacting hank¬ ing business for an hour or two on certain days of the week in each Ci>r.i- •nunity. Something like that may conic about, CHANEY Tl»e death of Lon Chaney is a gen¬ uine loss to the world. He was an entertainer of the first order, alike in his proper person, in which he ap|)cared in "Tell it to the Marines," and in the marvelous disKuises and contorted make-ups which he used in other films, Chaney's career was a diinoiis;ra¬ tion of the .Nmcriian Mu-i that • p- portunity awaits every boy or K.rl who is able to seize it.
