sequestrate the radium- bearing lands
and prevent the exploitation of 1T by
private persons as we'll as It's exporta
ton, this will be the one all-important
step toward solving the problem
When asked If he had made any
arrangements to take up the matter
OF government control of radium
lands with Congress, DIR. Kelly said
that he had not, but he added:

when SO little is yet known about
radium and the extent of its posi-

shown any response to the applica-

he said yesterday:
'Radium will cure superficial can

DIR. Kelly said that there was not

prediction:

DETROIT, Dec. 2s.-The Embedding
of radium tubes in the tissues of the
body as a cure for cancer. which has
been done in the case of Congressman

Detroit three months ago. Three sim

hospital here by DR.. J. B. Kennedy
and his son. DIR. Charles S. Kennedy
the methods being practically the
same as those used at Baltimore.
Two of the operations appear at the
present time to have been highly sue
cessful, while the result of the third
Ia not at all satisfactory. DR.. j. B.
Kennedy would make no statement
regarding the efficiency of radium as
a cure for cancer. 'I can say only
that up to date two cases that we
treated appear to be successful" he

''If you want 70 catch and hold the
public eye-do things different" That
Is what Miss Belle Baker says, who is
appearing at Proctor's this week. AL
though Miss Baker does not at
tribute her success to this maxim,
undoubtedly a good deal is due to 1t.
OF course, to begin WITH, Miss Baker
has ability and personality, but every
thing she does is distinctive. Her
songs, her way of singing them, every
and that way Is decidedly different.
Miss Baker has been called "Ameri-
cas- foremost singer of character
songs" She undoubtedly knows how
to get every bit of meaning out of a
song and to make every point tell
Her voice and acting ability go hand
in hand in the rendering of song hits
with the result that her name on a
bill is always welcomed.
