WHY HAIR FALLS OUT

Dandruff causes a feverish irritation
of the scalp, the hair roots shrink, loosen
and then the hair comes out fast. To
stop falling hair at once and rid the scalp
of every particle Of dandruf, get rs
cent bottle of Danderine at any drug
store, pour little in your hand and rub
well into the scalp. After few applica-
tions, all dandruf disappears, and the
hair stops coming out.-Ady.

Another Has to Read His
Paper to the Navy
League
MEETING KISSES
SECRETARY DANIELS
AdmiraPs Paper Says That
We Lack in Naval
Strategy

Washington, April l3.-Secretary Dan
iels' refusal TO permit Rear Admiral
Fske to read paper before the Navy
league convention here yesterday stirred
up wave of denunciation of the secre
tary in the meeting and drew Kisses from
one part of the hall The admirals pa
per previously published in Naval Insti
tute, an official publication of the navy
war college, was read by William Math
er Lewis of Lake Forest, ILL.,, while the
meeting cheered roundly.
Colonel Robert NJ Thompson, president
of the league, read letter from Secre-
tary Daniels denying a request that the
admiral read the paper and declared
81 desire TO express my sorrow that
the navy department should take this
narrow view, so strongly in conflict with
that taken by the war department. This
question goes behind mere department
al wish. 1t involves the constitutional
right of free speech that an officer of 80
years service, acknowledged as one OF
the leaders of his profession, should be
denied the right to say that two and two
make four"
Colonel Thompson's mention of Secre
tary Daniels name brought Kisses from
a part OF the house. Henry Reuterdahl
and William H. Stayton of New York
attacked the secretary's position and
Reuterdahl declared that wholesale gag |
cling of navy officers does not come orig |
inally from the navy department but
from the White House."
Secretary Daniels letter gave as a rea
son for his position the attitude taken
by the department recently when Admir- |
al Fiske was not permitted to speak to
the Commercial club of Chicago on naval
affairs. Then the secretary wrote that
he thought it better for civilians TO lead
the fight for enlargement Of the navy
and for naval officers to continue an un-
broken policy of not trying to influence
legislation.
NAVAL experts" he wrote then, twill
rive their views to the naval affairs com
nittee in Congress and hearings will be
public, This gives to Congress and the
people the opinions of experts"
"If any here want TO defend the sec
etary's position let him rise" shouted
No one rose to the defense Of the sec
etary.

'LAUDS GAYLORD FARM AS SPLENDID | EXAMPLE or. SANATORIUM DESIGNED
 TO FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS SC0URGE

Ito be forthcoming for the support of generous. It costs about $70,000 a year to run this Wallingford plant. The state turns in $4 per week for patients up to 100. The doctor has two assist ants; there is head nurse whom none can meet without having his confidence and admiration quickened. Most, if not all, of the staff have worked back to health from the dis ease the institution is founded to cure. There is, as result, a spirit of broth
 erhood about the farm; each patient knows that the fact he is accepted means he has ia hope of recovery, oth- erwise he would be referred to some other place. And then begins the eff fort to get well. It is often slow process with infinite Encouragement, but the company cheer each other. Dr. Lyman was with Dr. Trudeau for two years and has been with this work since 1904; it is significant that all who knew Trudeau speak his name with deference as though they had been privileged to have known a great man. Dr. Lyman's early years were in Virginia and he was educated at Johns Hopkins. The prominent men and. women of Connecticut who are behind him, believe they are building up a name perhaps equally great. Yale honored pr. Lyman with a degree a few weeks ago.
 '''I asked him if after these years the disease is. we'll understood. He made it clear that great discoveries are yet to be made as to its begin Inings. I inferred he even thought a specific may some day be hit upon, perhaps by accident. The chemist is the important man now; he and the physiologist And then followed some reasoning about the blood corpuscles I could not understand. Of course the patients live much outdoors; there are verandas galore, with windows that really do slide. The man who makes the windows of railway cars was not allowed to figure on this job. Neat ness, order, extreme cleanliness, sim plicity marked the buildings. The doctor believes in rest, a good deal of it. A patient who feels able to walk to Wallingford three miles away can
 not understand why he should go to bed at 2 o'clock; yet he must in many cases. Exercise has it's place but each
 case has its own regime. The idea of
 building a man up ny vigorous exer-
 else nav be applicable to some mala-
 dies, but take it at Wallingford, rest Is much in favor. And yet there was talk of four hours light activity for
 some cases. I asked about diet; and
 talked as enthusiastic laymen al-
 ways do about the advantages of eggs
 and milk exclusively. They ride nc
 hobbies at the farm. It seems tha,
 an excess of these things sometimes
 puts the digestive apparatus out o1 kcommission and it is important tha,
 the patient should be building tissue;
 he cannot afford to have his stomach
 working badly. How true it is tha
 moderation is the safe law in all the
 things that men do. It almost seems
 as if men need know no more thar this law; that an excess of anything
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-07-21

is bad, though at first 1t is hard to see how 1t can be- so. At the farm the diet is mixed, or rather the ration is balanced as the agricultural experts say. The staff and the patients eat together and eat the same things; the dinner was excellent and the peach pie would have put mother on her mettle The idea of stuffing patients to build up, their strength is not ap- proved: enough, not too mch. The farm furnishes supplies of milk be- tween meals for the patients is fea- ture. 4
 "A good deal of consumption seems to be of the latent type; the seeds may be planted in childhood or at some unfavorable period long ago. Under strain they show themselves Tracing cases is a part of the Wal lingford program and good deal of important data is being accumulated. It is often the old story of family history; the germs certainly do by carelessness and ignorance get, handed about in close contact. No one can work in tuberculosis without getting fanatical on prevention. Fresh air. as everybody knows, is perhaps the biggest factor, but not the only one. Overwork, strain, rut, worry develope the germs which perhaps otherwise would behave themselves and keep quiet There are some patients of years at the farm; the idea that it is only a disease of the young does not hold, though most of. the big family are under 30. The idea too that it is chiefly an occupational malady that besets those in the dusty, friction in- dustries does not hold. Some day it may be found that those who work at particular trades, perhaps with par ticular metal or locality escape it; and then an important step will be taken in dealing with it. At present it is almost universal. Rational living will cope with it by preventing it from getting a foothold. Dr. Lyman lays stress, too, -on getting the case under treatment early. The percentage of those sent on their way rejoicing in the early stages is wonderfully large. "It is splendid that charitable men and women of Connecticut have es- tablished this refuge. The state lags in some things, though one must have lived in other commonwealths to un- derstand this; but Connecticut is serv- ing not only it's own people but help
  l lems by its contribution in treatment 1 of tuberculosis. There was a reunion not. long ago of graduates of the farm; some 200 were there. They were as happy and enthusiastic as college boys plus the deep earnestness of men and women who have walked through the valley.
 i Such activities and triumphs are
 better than those of war. They tend
 to life and not death. They help oul
 fellows and do not harm them. Suf
 fering is great mystery, for it start!

New Havener's Visit Pro-
 ductive of Many Interest
 ing Sidelights On Work of Physicians and Nurses. !

A most interesting account or the
 work being done and the man who is at the head of the doing of it is the following sketch of the purposes and efforts of the Gaylord farm, at Wall |lingford by prominent New Haven CT, connected with Yale. He says: "It was a pleasant two hours I. |spent with pr. Lyman at the Gaylord farm Friday. He met me at the sta-' ton with his Mitchell car The doc tor Is an executive man; it seemed fit ting that he should be able to operats This own car, and talk sense to those bwho run the farm activities, and in general know what to do as to de- tails. We noted a floor that was de- fective; he has a. certain tiling he means to try. And the painted wood
 work in one room he believes to be too dark, and he asked the nurse if
 she would approve a green-a very light green. He said doctors prefer everything white. but the objection is made that this shows the dirt, which he said was the reason white is in fa- lvor. r pr. Lyman knows a good many things besides tuberculosis. There seems to be new profession; doctors who are good executives. The coun ltry is sprinkled with good doctors and 1 Specialists, but how few there are
 whose training and aptitude equip them to run a big plant.
 q know a Yale man who is putting half million into a hospital plant in a country district; he wants 1t to be medical center for the whole county.
 But the money and the plant will not
 do it; he must have a man big enough | to inspire the whole country and get ltheir support; one whom every man, woman and child loves and respects. He must be big in medicine that the profession will respect him; he must be open and generous to keep his doc
 tors and nurses-especially the nurses and his trustees in order; and he must
 be an executive that the help do not
 mismanage and waste and get tFe i'm stitution unpopular and inefficient. Good men are not rare but all-round
 men are.
 "As we visited one building after
 another, and noted the smooth-run-
 ming of all; the difference for the doc-
 tor, the enthusiastic smiles of the pa tients, the tr--~+ and affection shown
 by score ildren smelling peas | in the sunny -lloors I recalled that
