BY DIR. w. B. M'WHORTER.

The tonsils are two in number and
are situated one on either side Of the
throat between the anterior and pos
terror pillars of the pharynx.
Their size is variable They are
composed of Emphatic tissue and are
almond-shaped.
On the inner side of the tonsils are
twelve or fourteen openings which ex-
tend down into the tonsil. These are
sometimes called follicles or crypts.
Like the appendix, they often do more
harm than good, and can be removed
without any injury to the organism.
The function of the tonsils is sup
posed to be the digestion or destruc-
ton of micro-organisms, which easily
find their way into the openings, or
crypts, already mentioned.
Most children who have adenoids
that are enlarged sufficiently to need
removal at the same time generally
nave enlarged lOnSlIS.
This enlargement of the tonsils is
generally due to chronic infamma
ton of the tonsils, caused by the germs
which multiply in the follicles r
crypts. Often pus and yellow parti-
! Giles can be seen on such tonsils, and
can be washed out by pressure.
The pressure Of chronieally infamed
and infected tonsils is constant men
I ace to the general health. The pos
SCISSOR of such tonsils is pre-disposed to
rheumatism, heart disease and tuber-
culosis. The germ cauing these dis
eases may enter through the tonsils.
1t is quite true that many of the
disease-producing organisms may find
Judgement in the tonsils and be taken
up by the blood and lymph streams
and carried to other parts of the body
where they may produce serious dis
ease sooner or later
Diseased tonsils should be removed
or properly treated.
In the examination of school child
rem in Americas about five per cent
we're found to have enlarged and dis
eased tonsils.
If this condition were removed these
same children would not only make
more rapid progress in school, bu
would stand a much better chance O
developing into strong and health
adults.

THE WAR SITUATION

The invasion of Rumania by the troops of the central powers continues to progress despite the efforts of the Russians and Rumanians to hold them back. Berlin reports that the invaders moving eastward into Moldavia from the Transy1vanian Alps region are gain ing ground step by step, while the force of Field Marshal Won Mackensen, driv- ing northward in M Mo1davia, has won ad- ditiona1 ground, reaching the Putnss |river sector. In this fighting the Teu-
 tonic allies, according to Berlin, have taken 5499 prisoners and captured three large guns and 10 machine guns. Petrograd admits that the Russians along the line of the Putna and Sereth
 rivers have fallen back, but says the
 maneuver was carried out without
 hindrance. A slight retreat on the
 Kassina river by the Russians also is
 recorded by Petrograd, but it is as-
 serted that south of the Oituz river and
 near Rekoza, on the Suchitza river, att

Bbuous Gentleman Seeks to Contract With City For Oils Enivens Commission Meetng-Ward Gives Barber
 Gentle Hint About Fires

George B. Ward was just bubbling over with good humor at the commission meet ing yesterday morning, but a visitor was full of more stimulating spirits. Be- tween the dashes of wit that the presi- dent of the commission evinced, and the
 antics of the bibulous visitor who had been wanting to meet Judge Ward" for 20 years, the session was punctuated with ripples of laughter.
 With more or less monotony, the ses- sion had rocked along until the matter of awarding the city's contract for oils, lubricants and gasoline was entered into.
 A rather sporty individual, who was wooing vogue with an ardor, appeared at the door. He had his card in his hand and was announced. In liquid, roll ing ones-probably out of sympathy with his motion-he advised strongly against the city awarding its contract to any
 grease" company and added that he sold the best Tubs in the world.
 Someone happened to mention the names of Mir. Griffin and Commissioner
 Ward. This gave him the impulse to meet the notables. With gusto he ad- mitted his excess of pleasure upon meet ing the purchasing agent, but he was downright tickled to meet the president. In fact, he avowed as he strode toward the president that he Bad been wanting to meet Judge Ward for 20 years. To emphasize his delight, he encompassed the Judge with his arm

 Team Hard

The Birmingham college basketball team will play their initial game tomorrow night with the Marion in- stitute boys.
 Very little is known of the strength of the Marion team, although reports from the Cadets state that they have strong team. Just what kind of game to be expected will be real ized tonight when Marion plays the Birmingham Athletic clubs team. Their team is composed of some good material but just what combination they have developed remains to, be seen.
 The team is composed of Argo, Wilkie, McDavid, Blackburn. Argo is a veteran and Wilkie has served the basket game a number of years at other schools. McDavid and Blackburn are local boys and have had years of experience.
 Coach Brown has developed rapid style of play at Birmingham college. The Methodists have practically the same team as last year, which set 8 neat record, only losing two games out of ten. Both these defeats were at the hands of the championship High school team developed by Coach PIitchard.
 The lineup will be chosen from the following players: Gillam. Neill Nor ton, Cook, Walton, Stapleton, Laugh inghous.
