ENFFRMEDADES DEL CORAZON

FL sistema irculatorio-consiste del
corazon, las arterias, los capilares Y las
venas. Tambien sc debe incluir aqu1 Ell
sistema linfatico.
Ell CORAzoN sirve para bombear la
sangre, las ARTERIAS nevan sangre
pura los tejidos, los CAPILARES son
vases de muy pequefio calibre-e los
cuales la sangre al circular esta en- con-
tacto fntimo con los tejidos debido la
delgadez de la pared de 6stos, las VIZ
MAS llevan la sangre al corazon, que
su vez la bombea los pulmones pa
ra que Sc deshaga de su 6xido carbon1-
co y Sc stature de oxigeno.
Para comprender su mecanismo, po-
demos comparar Ell sistema circulatorio
al sistema de acueducto de una ciudad
moderna.
Ell coraz6n es la planta del acueduc-
to donde Ell aqua adquiere preston, las
arterias son los tllbos del acueducto que
conducen Ell aqua pura que Sc ha de
utilizar en- los servicios domesticos. Las
venas seran los tubos del alcantarilla-
do-que levan ell aqua impura Y sucia.
Existe una gran diferencia sin en-
barge y es que mientras que en- esta
ciudad el aqua impura Sc bota, en- Ell
cuerpo la sangre impura va a los pull
mones, donde Sc deshace de algunas de
sus impurezas y Sc enriquece en- oxi-
geno.
Ell sistema linfatico sirve para reco-
ger Ia LIMA, o sea una parte del
elemento hquido de la sangre que Sc
escapa de los, capilares- -mientras esta
BAHIA a los tejidos. Esta linfa como
va digimos es recogida por medic de
los vasos iinfaticos Y vaciada en- el
torrente sangufneo. Entonces pasa
junto con Ell resto de La sangre a los
pulmones donde Sc purifca.
Ell coraz6n es un 6rgano muscular
hueco dividido en- cuatro cavidades:
dos auriculas, una derecha una IL
Quierda dos ventriculos: uno derecho
" uno izquierdo.
Los auriculos tienen paredes muy del
gadas y sirven de dep6sito para la
sangre que traen las venas, los ven-
triculos tienen paredes mas gruesas y
sirven para propeller la sangre a las
arterias. El lado derecho del corazon
recibe la sangre del cuerpo y la distr1-
buye los pulmones, donde Sc purifi-
ca va al lado izquierdo del corazon,
Ell cual la recibe la bombea al or
ganismo.

Birmingham Traffic Associa- ton Secures Adjustment
 Covering Wide Territory

Fifteen per cent reduction of cot ton rates, affecting Birmingham compresses, dealers, brokers and others will go into effect Friday. ac. cording to c. E. Jones, secretary of the Birmingham Traffic association. The tariffs involved are through rates on cotton with concentration privileges on the Illinois Central railroad from points west of Bir- mingflam to the Carolina territory. the Canadian territory, eastern points, south Atlantic points and southeastern territory. including Birmingham and other Alabama points.
 These rates will. supplant the old combination rates, which were neces- sary when cotton was held over for grading, assortment and compress ing. at points between the places ot origin and the mill destination.
 It has been the aim of the Bir- rningham Traffic association, Secre- tary Jones said. to aid in the development of the mill. compress and cotton brokerage business in Birmingham, and the publication of the new rates is regarded as step forward. The association has se- cured adjustments in the drawing of cotton from depots on the A., B. & A. railroad as far east as the Georgia state line, for concentration at Bir- mingham and reshipment to gulf ports; the establishment of concen- tration Arrangements in relation to Warrior river rates; the establish ment' of storage in transit privileges on compressed. cotton from stations west of the Mississippi river. and other adiustments

NEGRO EDUCATIONl
 PROGRAM RECORD
Mississippi Reports 1923 Schedule, The Greatest
 Ever Carried Out

JACKSON, Miss. Jan. 2.-Missis- sippis education program for negroes during 1923 was the greatest ever carried out, according to Brra Hill ben. state superintendent of negro education, in a statement today. in which he pointed out that one-tenth of the negro population of the United States had to be provided for.
 Tn many respects the program was the best since the work began in the state seven years ago." he said.
 Tn Mississippi we have one-tenth of< all the negroes in the United States, or approximately 1000, 900, and of that number there are 41S,4Sl children, 54 per cent of the total edu- cable population of this state. This at once indicates that it will be quite while before all of these children are provided with an educational prcgrom that they ought to have. However. the public school authori- ties of this state are doing as much as they can under the conditions to provide the negro children with ade- quate, modern buildings"

REGULARS TO ADOPT DOG IN HANGER ROLE
'Cummins Or Nobody To Be Slogan When Congress Convenes
 WASHINGTON BUREAU
 THE AGE HERALD


 The administration leaders of the Senate have evolved a scheme where by if they cannot elect Senator Cum mins of Iowa chairman of the com mittee on commerce they will prevent the election of either Senator Smith, democrat, or Senator Couzens, pro- gressive."
 After a few additional futile bal lots, they, will suggest that business be pursued, and the election of a chairman be deferred. They will ar- que that the business of the people needs attention, and that for a short while, at least, the commerce commit tee can function without an official head.
 If the plan of the administration leaders Is followed, the ranking mem- Der of the committee will be the un- official head of the committee. That of Iowa. The railroads, as has been demonstrated. are satisfied with Sem ator Cummins.
 Reactionaries Were Lucky.
 The plan, it is learned definitely on the eve of the reconvention of Congress, will be opposed by demo- crats and "progressives." The latter insist that they have been most con- siderate of the "reactionary" wing of the party, inasmuch as they could have prevented the organization of all lScommittees. They point out what is obviously true that were they dis posed, they could prevent the election of Cummins as president pro-tempore of the Senate just ts they have pre- vented his election as chairman of the committee on commerce.
 They staked their all, they declare, on the election of a chairman of the
 i-I question of railroad. railroads rates and problems. They insist that the burden of rates is one of the most severe carried by the public, and that it is necessary that 8 progressive" have charge of this contemplated re- form.
 It is. their position that the "reac- tionaries' may have everything pro- vided they can give the 'progressixes" this chairman. They will fight for it, it Is certain. PrOGressives May Go To Smith.
 To defeat the scheme of the ''reac- tionaries," the 'progressives." know ing that they cannot elect their own man, may throw their strength imme- diateIy to Senator Smith. It would then happen that in determining an issue, the railroad question, which will be one of the outstanding issues of the ensuing campaign, democrats will take the leadership.
 It is learned authoritatively that if Senator Smith .sis elected chairman, he will present measure which would conserve the interests of the shippers on the one hand. and the rail- roads on the other. He will not give the shippers anything. and he will not attempt to destroy the railroads.
 His measure might not be adopted. But he will be able, as chairamn, to bring it to the floor and thus inform the country of how democrats would proceed were they able.

 They pointed out that only ten other states in the union have 9 larger representation in the national convention now than Tennessee, with the increasing of delegates from 70 to 27.
