f . y ' \ ARB CHILDREN BETTER CAREO ? FOR IN ORPHANAGE? The study of whether or not the children who live in orphan homes _in North Carolina are better cared for and better educated than children in the-average North Carolina home and St \Kthc average North Carolina schools is well worthy of the best work of. the State Department of Welfare, the State Health Department, local health departments, the State Tuberculosis Association one or all ' conbined. Should the question be answered in the affirmative, as it probably will be, the question would immediately arise, are not the children in our homes and public schools entitled to as good care and as good education as children in our orphan homes? This is easily answered in the affirmative. Then would be necessary to follow tETs up with another ques tion which is not nearly so eaily answered; if not, why not; what is lacking and what is the remedy for it? The Marion County (Ind.) Tuberculosis Association has done a most interesting piece of work, covering a period. of two years, in the nutrition phase of this problem. A brief report of this work in the Nation's Health says: "The glaring fact brought out is k that the children as a rule seem better off physically under the system of training and. the diets of the average orphanage than he is under the diet of a normal home and the system of living that goes generally with the average publii or parochial school. "The studies in Indiana show that the child is hearer norma! weight for his. height after a stay in an orphan?ugeythan he is living in a nomal home and attending the average school. Almost invariably, according to Miss Mary A. Meyers, executive secretary of the association a lower percentage of children is underweight in the or phanage than in schools which draw their attendance from homes of the middle or higher classj For example, in the largest school in the finest residential section of Indianapolis approximately 40 per cent of its children were underweight 7 per cent or more. Meanwhile a school in the worst residential section of the city, attened only by colored- children, was found to have an underweight percentge of only 32 per cent. This general discrepepancy was apparent throughout the schools of the city, Selected with reference to classes of homes from which the children came. "Then the Tuberculosis Association decided to study certain gronps of children in privte schools. Two schools were selected in a nart of the eittr heality populated by persons of German descent. The families were of the well-to-do sturdy type wherein good food abounds. Between 35 and 40 percent of the children attending these schools were found to be underweight for their height. Meanwhile the orphaged was studied. Here the children apparently werefew from stocks of carefully selected food such as milk, fresh vegetables, bread and butter, fruits and jellies, and folioweda well regulated program. In one such home the almost negligble percentage of 8.8 per cent was found underwieght. The children of the colored orphans home were weighed and measured and surprisingly enough, only 4.3 per cent of them were underweight. "The studies stretched out into the county districts surrounding Indiaa polis. Schools in small rural centers K showed the per cent of underweight children running from 30 to 46.3 and the average for all these rural schools showed 37.7 per cent underweight." Studies of this find in North Caro_ lina should be made and the North Carolina Tuberculosis Association offers to donate hight-w-eightage charts to any or all orphanages that will undertake the work.

He was under the law J and therefore H? obeyed It (Daot. J 16:16), bnt primarily He went up be- ] cause It was His Father's house. It ] Is Important that all people from their bftnlk nn moW? upon the house of God a habit of their lives. II. The Temple Defiled "fv. tl)r ' ? For the various sacrifices In the .temple man; oxen, sheep and doves were needed. Many persons came from distant parts of the land; therefore. It was Impracticable to bring their sacrifices with them, so they brought money and bought the snlmalB needed. This privilege the I-ord had granted to them (Deut. 1-1:24-20). Thlr exchange was necessary, but. when evil men used It as an opportunity for gain It became an offense before God. If Christ were to come to many of our so-called houses of God today He would find them polluted In just as aggravating a way. His purging the temple rourts shows the need o t purity and order In all matters connected with divine worship. III. Jesus Cleansing the Temple (vv. 16-17). 1. Driving Out the Merchants and Animals (v.' 15). Being the Lord of the temple, the very Messiah who should come to His temple, He bad the right to cleanse It, to drive out those who polluted It. It la not said that He used the scourge of cords but, at any rate. It was the symbol of authority. 2. His Command (v. 10). "Make not my Father's house an house of merchandise." Merchandise Is legitimate In Its place. Any UBe of the lord's house other than to worship and honor-Hlm la to make It a place of merchandise, to pollute It There la greet danger of a worldly spirit Intruding Into the domain of religion. Men who unite with the church for temporal Interests, men who come to the house of worship with worldly matters uppermost In their thought, ministers who serve as professionals, men vyho bring their Ill-gotten gains to help further the work of the Lord, In fact all who do not .behave properly In the I-orcl's house/wre defiling It and therefore all such must meet His Judgment. 8.

This was according to tha prophecy, j "The steel of thine honae hath eaten me up," We alsonld take Hie act at | an example to us In the divine unite and manifest rommondable zeal. This reform did not prove permanent. A few rears later He cleansed It again. Thta shows how quickly the human heart Is under the control of sin. The only permanent reformation Is that which Is wrought in regeneration. The new htrth la necessary. IV. The Jews Demanding a Sign (w. 18-22). They demanded of Jesus that He i show His authority for such behavior. He told them that the only sign that would be given was His death and resurrection. Destroying the temple and raising It up In threa days refers to His crucifixion and resurrection. [ The resurrection Is" 56 unalterable proof of His dlvltie-jaonshlp (pom. ! 1 :-4). Jesus came forth from the ' grave of His own power. The Jewa i did not want a sign. They were.only j finding excuses for their wlckedneaa. , Men today who are- demanding proof ; of Christ's divinity do not really wish the proof bnt are only trying to find I excuses for their sins. Jesus had the ability to Justify His ways before Gojl and man. After the resnrrectlon the disciples remembered the words of Jeans on this occasion. This shows that no sowing of the truth shall !: eventually fall. This ought to he a j great comfort for Snnday school teachers and Christian workers. / -Lofty Ideals N I.oftv Ideals often live In lowly places.?Western Christian Advocate.
