WhyJoy Conquers Wounds and Germs

TTHOSE who regard emotions as
merely an exhibition of weakness
or foollshness are greatly mis-.
taken. Excellent medical authorities tell
us that the emotions may help US through
many terrible difficulties and even save
our lives.

estimates that the mortality from wounds
In battle Is in the defeated army in pro
portion to that among the victors as four
to three or even as three to two. The
yietors recover from their wounds more
frequently than the vanqulshed because
the emotions Of Joy and hope reinforce
their physical strength.

writes in the Press Medicale on the
physical intoxicaion of victory and the
extent to which bodily pain can be van
pushed BY the sense Of military triumph.
Moreover, the victorious army is not only
insensi5le TO its wounds. but 1t defes dis
ease in like measure; it Is the beaten
army that succumbs TO pain and is the
more ravaged by epidemics. For exam

Butter Balls and Water Bullets Replace Anarchys Bombs

A small bail of butter can be shot
through a hardwood board OF more than
a half inch thickness. The reason is very
simple to those who have made a study
of ballistic science. The power OF pro
iectile depends on its weight and its speed
the force by which 1t is sent. A ball OF
double the weight OF another will produce
twice the effect travelling at the same
speed. A ball Of the same weight as an
other, but travelling at double the speed,
will not be twice, but four times as effec-
tive. On the other hand, the lighter the
projectile may be the greater will be its
initial velocity-its speed Immediately on
quitting the gun. This speed dIminishes,
however, very quickly.
