HEART KEEPS ON BEATING EVEN
 DURING SLEEP

Under ordinary conditions the heart beats are controlled by certain nerve cells which are located within the heart itself. and these cause the heart to beat even while the brain is asleep. This explains why the heart beats when the brain is asleep. and the fact that the brain when asleep does not exercise it's functions shows how necessary this arrangement and the control of ordinary heart beats is. If this were not so, we should not be able to live while asleep. It is just like the management of a great busi- ness in this sense. The general man. ager of a great business has control of the entire works, but there are oc- only one thing in connection with the business, and so he must have his organization so complete, that the parts which he can not be thinking about at the time will do their work just the same. So he surrounds him self with competent assistants, who look after certain departments while he is busy or away or asleep, and if anything goes wrong while he is away he calls on special forces to set things right. Now the brain is the general manager of the whole body and has these nerve cells in the heart as a sort of assistant manager to look after the heart beats in ordinary conditions, and to keep the heart going while he is asleep. But, by reason of his office

We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a weIl-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble
 The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the elfminative tis- sues clog and thus the waste is re- tained in the blood to poison the en- tire system

CHEMISTS TAKE CRACK AT HIGH
 COST OF LIVING

St. Louis, Mo, April 1.-The living cost will be reduced millions of dollars by the recent chemical investigations gates to the convention of the Ameri- can Chemical Society, in session here this week.
 The recent discovery by Fred G.. GottreI, Chief Metallurgist of the United States Bureau of Mines, of a lead substitute to be used in the man ufacture of insecticides, is expected to save millions of dollars of farm products annually, and assist ma teriaIly in lowering the cost of these products.
 Successful experiments in tanning hides of sharks, chemists assert, will assist materially in bringing down the cost of leather goods.
 About s1,000,00O,OO0 in farm pro ducts have been lost each year be- cause insecticides, made chiefly of lead compounds, were beyond the reach of the poorer families,' Charles l.. Parsons, of Washington, secretary of the Society, explained.
 'By Mr. Gottren's discovery, arsenic is removed from smoke issuing from copper smelters, and this has made it possible for chemists to provide a, sub- stitute for lead, greatly reducing the 1 cost of insecticides

 Delegates say they look upon this convention as a celebration of the chemical independence of the United States from the pre-war dependence upon other countries. Before the war, they said, there were only seven dye industries in this country, as com pared with seventy-seven at present.

ISTRIA CAUSES
 ITALY TROUBLE

Trieste April 15-Italian military authorities here say they have 1n- herited from the war a lot of diff cuIties and problems in controlling the Slav population in Istria and the region surrounding Gorizia. This territory constitutes part of the Adri- atic question which still remains un- settled by the Supreme Council. It passed under Italian control by the establishment of the armistice line at the end of the war.
 In this territory there are more than 400, 900 Slovenes who resent the surveillance of the Italian military police. RevoIting Slav elements fir bolshevisn, intern1ittentIy attack the Italian military patrols and carabi- neers of the army of occupation.
 In these districts there have been within a year 20 assassinations and 1000 arrests. Attempts have been made to set up a communistic regime at Dignano where large stores of am muntion which belonged to the old Austrian army had been collected and hidden beneath a building used as headquarters of a workmen's commit tee. The plot was discovered by the Italian police who raided the head quarters and arrested 130 Slavs. Dur ing the fighting with the communists the building was wrecked by bombs.
 Bolshevik outbreaks alleged to have been organized by Slav workmen have taken place at Pola, and a large Italian garrison is maintained at this formerly Austrian port, now the cas- tern base of the Italian Adriatic fleet Disorders by SIavs have been ire uueIlt near GoriZia

CITY MUST ACT
# ROCKEFELLER
AID TO Be HAD

If Bernalillo county Is to take
advantage OF the Rockefeller in
stitute aid in establishing a full
time health board, action will have
to be taken at once or the propo-
sition will be withdrawn and Of
fered to other counties, C. e. Wal
Ter, head of the state health de-
partment, stated in a letter re-
ceiVed yesterday by n. r. Watkins
of the Chamber of Commerce. ;
The text of the letter is printed
below:
"Since talked with you over
the telephone l have seen Mr..
Hughes of the city commission,
who stated that the city would not
do any more than /. had done with
regard to the proposition of levy
ing tax for the county health de-
partment. For this reason | have
not mailed the contracts to them,
and will be compelled to offer the
$4,000 which we have to put up to
some other county unless the city
and county get together at once
on the proposition.
The arrangement I would sug-
gast is n half mill levy by the
county (the limit allowed by law,
the remainder of the $4,000 re-
CURED to be raised by the city with
whatever levy is necessary. While
under this arrangement the city
would put up more than the coun-
ty. 1t can easily be seen that on. ac-
count of the more serious problems
to be handled and the larger popu-
lation to be protected the city
would receive far more benefit
than the county. If there is any
other city in the country getting
adequate health protection for less
than Albuquerque is asked to put
up, I do not know of it.
II do not think the citizens of
Albuquerque should allow this OPP
portunit, to be passed up. There
is no question but that both the
city and county need a health de-
partment badly, and an active or
would be one of the
biggest advertisements that the
city could have"

UNITED STATES
HIGH SCHOOLS
Not Fewer Than $4,000
Teaching Positions In
Public Institutions Will Be
Vacant Next September.

| Not fewer than fifteen thousand
teat hing positions in public high
schools will be without properly
qualified teachers next September,
if the estimates of A. o. Neal of the
U. S. bureau of education, prove to
be correct. The bureau recently
conducted an extensive inquiry
iamong the high schools of the
country, and more than 1000 high
sch ools have written of their needs.
Those schools now employ 65,S57
teachers. and they will REQUIRE
1928 new teachers in the fall to
provide for the normal increase in
enrolment and to take the places
of those who are leaving the schools
for other work. Mr.. Neal considers
that this proportion fairly repre-
Sents the general condition in high
schools throughort the country,
and he estimates that a total of 25,-
97S places must be filled before
the next school term begins.
The visible supply of qualified
'andidates does not even approach
that number. Simultaneously with
the inquiry made of high schools.
the bureau requested all the col
leses- and universities of the United
States to report the number of per-
sons who would graduate this
wear, and also the number of those
graduates who expect to teach in
the high schools. Replies from
1928 institutions show that their
graduates will number 10 $50 men
and 1927 women, and that 1850
men and 4,742 women will take mp
the work of high school teaching,
on this basis it is estimated that
only 10f20 members of this wears
graduating classes of all the higher
institutions will accent positions in
The high schools The difference,
1888 places, must be filled in
WAYS that are not now apparent, or
that number of classes will be |
without proper instruction.
It may be possible to induce |
other graduates to enter the work |
and some former teachers who have |
NAV return; but this |
will mean that higher paw and i'm
proved conditions otherwise must |
he offered. The only alternative is
to employ nersons below the stand
ard prescribed by experience and
general practice.
How serious the situation is may
be judged by the fact that the
threatened shortage is twice as
great as the number of teachers In
al of New England, and greater
han the number Of srch teachers
in New York and Pennsylvania
Mr.. Neal advises school boards
everywhere to lose no time in
their forces in an
ticination of the expected diff
,ulties. Salaries must be raised,
md improved conditions must be
in order to hold as many
vs. possible of the teachers now In
he service and to attract desir-
,ble recruits. All this must be
lone, mott for the benefit of the
who are evidently able
