The Handicap and Care of Simple
Golfer.
When / asked my friend, the
specialist in goiter treatment why
we should worry about golfers, why
the state should make lots of fuss
about it and start giving free
iodine-salts to all the residents who
asked it, he said, "For cosmetic
reasons, if for nothing else. Simple
golfers effect girls much more than
they do the men,"
81 feel it is a job, if not the job
of every girl to be attractive and
pretty, and appealing in looks, and,
an enlarged neck doesn't add to
any girls beauty. / am just old
fashioned enough in my belief and
ways to feel that every girls part
in life is to be partner in mar
ried life, and she's off with a nandi-
cap when affected with goiterous
condition. And l am practicing in
my own home what Pm preaching
to you here"
Simple goiter is the easiest known
disease to prevent. There is no
need for anyone having it, if. it's
prevention is started when a child
is three years of age-and particu-
larly is given to adolescent girls
and to women before childbirth.
Goiter is due to lack of suffi-
cient iodine in the thyroid gland.
What the thyroid gland does may be
explained by describing what hap
pens to individuals who have no
thyroid gland or where its normal
function has ceased.
When a child is born without a
thyroid gland, it cannot grow or de-
velop like normal child, but be,
comes dwarf of the type called
"cretin". Il may never be strong
