IN The country has at 'last awakened to the fact that the health of the child must be guarded; that' a child with cut 'health cannot succeed and will not become a contributing factor in building-up the country. It is peculiar that such essential was overlooked for so long, but it is gratifying that it is not to be longer neglected. Not for one moment would an archi tect think of having a great building rest upon an insecure foundation. Yet the foundation, as embodied in the health of the child, was little though of up o a few years ago. But, at last, the dawn has come and the . country PAYABLE STRICTLY CASH . ADVANCE.

The teachers' assembly is well worth The "unwritten law" of the boycott while. It is of State-wide importance, seems to be working well in some or!60111186 what benefits the teachers, in the cities, and it is probably not so dis comforting for people to abstain from any one article of food, or from any several. Substitutes can always be found. Yet an elimination of sucn food by a big army of people, for any given length of time, is very apt to have its effect. So in the boycott may, after all, be found the first aid to the injured. strengthening their capability, in widening their usefulness, is bound to help the entire state. Benefit de rived by the teachers is reflected into every community, the welfare of which needs them next to the mothers. Altogether too many people think too lightly of the roles played by the pub- I lie school teachers, or they are so in attentive as not to give such due consideration. RUMANIA'S PLIGHT. With the repeated successes won by the Austro-Germans and Bulgarians over the Rumanians, the very capital of the latter now hanging by ar thread, the mystery deepens as to why Ru - mania entered the war. Was the monarch and his advisers absolutely blind to the strength of the Teutons and the weakness of the entente? It " would seem so, and yet it would look tinreasonable how mature considera tion, or time for such, as allotted to . the Rumania, could have possibly per mitted such. Still the grim, the ghastly fact remains that Rumania had : she intended, much less contemplated, entering the war all along, plunged in at a most inopportune time. It may ; be so that she saw behind the coaxing words of Russia, a sinister design, and had no other alternative, or it may be that she thinks the entente will win Tin the long run and she staked much -in order not to lose all in the end. It "is more likely, however, that she thought the entente more powerful in the east that has developed and that Greece could be relied upon to lend ts helping hand, while the Somme of fensive would continue and be of ' crushing force. :0 But whatevercaused Rumania to jiturl herself into the cataclysm she !,is paying dearly; for it.
