Radium Gives Off It's Rays in
Breaking Down Other Substance

If an internal tumor is to be treated the
tubes are surrounded by thick rubber
wax and held against the tumor. In treat
ing some cancers, for instance one in the
tongue, it is difficult to keep the radium in
place for the necessary number of hours so
another method is used Radium only gives
off its rays because ii is breaking down into
another substance just as coal only gives
off energy, which is really stored sunshine.
when 1t is burnt. Now one of these break
down products is a gas which can be pumped
off from the radium and collected in small
steel or glass needles. These needles can be
stuck into the tumor and left there until the
tumor cells have had a proper dose. This
does not hurt as might be thought for
tumor has no nerves.
That Is about all there is to radium treat
ment, but the proper dose and the time that
the radium must be left on the tumor can
only be determined by long experience. Ex-
cessive treatment may result in very painful
burns injury OF the healthy tissues sur
rounding the tumor and in some instances
in the severe illness and even the death of
the patient. Undertreatment may stimulate
the tumor to grow faster. So it is evident
that the use of this powerful remedy should
be only in experienced hands.
Radium does not do what we all hoped at
one time 1t would do; that is, cure all
tumors, but 1t has brought freedom from
pain and comfort and prolongation of life to
many thousand suffering human beings.
So we welcome to our shores Nine. Marie
Curie-perhaps the greatest scientific mind
the gentler sex has produced-and we well
come her here because she has not only
discovered a new element and opened to our
gaze a universe of infinitesimal things and
changed all views OF the constitution
OF the atom but most of all because she has
brought comfort to human souls

Yiddisll Theater
Presents 'Dibbuck,' ,
Ghetto Folk Myth
Story of Soul of DeadHuman
Which Enters Body of Liv-
ing Told; Maurice Swartz,
MissAdlerin LeadingRoles

Save for few tedious moments near
its close "The Dibhuck," as done last
night by the Yiddish Art Theater, is a
good dramatic rendering of an old folk
myth of the Jewish ghettoes. This play
portrays the richness of the restricted
and isolated life of the Jewish folk of
several hundred years ago, it's childlike
yet lovely faith in tho unknown.
"The Dibbuck," translated literally
means the soul of dead human which
enters the body of living thing. In
this special instance, however, the dib-
buck enters the body of his beloved, and
what ensues is the struggle of Jewish
rabbi to free the girl from the dibbuck
This story is as simple as a folksong,
as sweet as a folksong's melody,
through which is suggested the color,
bright and somber, of the orthodox, re-
ligious life Of the Jew in his ghetto.
AT times the story taxes present
day credulity, but, unlike 1.-The Spring, u
by George Gram Cook, produced last
there is no trying to convince by ar
gument belief in the rabbits ability
either to exercise or to drive spirits
from the human body. When Chonon,
the "yeshivah bocher," or tho student
of the Talmud and the other religious
books of the Jewish faith, Is denied
the love of Leah because of his pow
erty and, aided by his knowledge of
the cabbala, causes his soul to enter
her body it is regarded as calamity
by the community, but no overwhelm-
ing surprise is evinced. No, it is no
spiritualst play.
Chonon's soul enters the body of
Leah just as she is about to be be-
trothed to the man selected for her by
her father, and in the concluding two
acts is shown the old rabbits struggle
to drive Chonon out. Chonon has
taken command of Leah's voice and re-
fuses to leave her body until as a last
resource the rabbi invokes the aid of
God. Although the setting in this act
was poor the group of Jews in their
prayer shawls clustered about the old
rabbi as he argued with the dibbuck
was lovely. The candlelight suggested
at one moment the painting of one Of
the old masters, say Rembrandt
The opening set executed by Alexan-
der Chertoff was very suggestive-one
could almost smell the snuff of the old
Jews in the Shule.
Maurice Swartz did a fine job as the
producer of the play; he was interest
ing As Chonon; he was good as the old
rabbi Miss Celia Adler overcame her
difficult part rs Leah with apparent
ease and, on the whole, gave a vivid
performance. Bina Abramowitz was
fine as Leah's old nurse and Jachiel
Goldsmith was pretty good as her
father.

On the Screen
s'Footfalls,' at the Park, an Ex-
cellent Story, for the Most
Part Badly Handled
BY Harriette Underhill

Every time picture like "Footfalls"
is shown it is one more count for those
annoying persons who tell us that
there is no art on the screen. Heaven
knows they have enough evidence now
without having director like Charles
Brabin add to it. Given story like
"Footfalls,'' which was furnished by
Wilbur Daniel Steele, it seems incred-
ible that anything 80 appalling could
have been evolved as the picture which
Is running at the Park Theater. The
lighting is hard and white; the actors
all act within an inch of their lives
until you feel that every minute they
will either explode and end it all or
sigh themselves to death. Such gri-
maces, such heaving Of cheats, such
rolling of eyes, such sly glances and
such comedy At a birthday party in
this little village of Glousport the di-
rector has gathered together all of the
old characters who have appeared in
slapst;ck comedies for the last dozen
years and made them guests at the
party. 1t is quite terrible! Comedy
relief is one Of the things that we can
do without very nicely, anyway.
The story is wonderful one for the
screen, and, in spite of all the deplor-
able handicaps, the picture manages to
achieve certain amount of distinction
at times. If it were our picture, in
stead of William Fox's, we should tear
it all up and say, "Now that you see
what not to do, start in and screen that
story"
Tyron Power is seen as blind cob
bier. He has nothing to make life's
walk easy save his young son Tommy,
and so, when Tommy tells him that he
is going to the big city to live, it is not
unnatural that he should oppose the
project.
There Is a villain who steals Tom
my's girl away from him (though
how either of them could feel as they
did about it was more than we could
understand and the villain and
Tommy fall on each other and have
terrific fight. This Is most exciting,
