HEALTH BULLETIN
CITY OF ELY
by OWEN W. PARKER. Md.
Health Commissioner

1t is the intention of the Health
Department to run a series of short
articles on "Goiter" for educational
purposes. Goiter is very prevalent
in Ely, and if it is possible to pre-
vent 1T, such measures should be
taken to that end in the City of Ely.
The following article entitled
The prevalence of Endemic Goiter''
has been furnished us by Eli Lilly
and Company:
Endemic goiter in North America
has been known for more than a
century. It was found among
American Indians living along the
shores of Lakes Ontario and Erie
and described by Barton in 1900.
Goiter in the Rocky Mountain
States was described by Munson.
Marine found it to be widely dis
seminated in the Great Lakes Basin,
not only in man but in dogs and
sheep. It's incidence is high in Al
berta and Adami has written of
its frequency in the st. Lawrence
Valley. In the United States en-
demic goiter is to be found in all
the states, but is least noted in the
following states: Arizona, Texas,
New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama,
Florida and Maine.
"Such regions are known in the
Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, Hima-
layas, Andes, and regions of the
valleys of Alaska and British Col
umbia. Grille says, The extent to
which goiter prevails throughout
the world is seldom appreciated.
Few countries are free from en-
den.ec districts. There are local
tiles where the incidence of goiter
IS SO extremely high that they have
been known for years as endemic
goiter districts
"There have been various causes
ascrbed and numerous treatments
used. Coindet, in 1920 was the
first knowingly to give iodine al
though the early Greeks treated
goiter by the internal administra
tion of the ash of burned sea
sponges' rich in iodides.
Simple goiter has been found to
be due to the need for iodine. It
is function of the thyroid gland
to take iodine from the food. met
aboliZe it and deliver it in highly
active form to tissues of the body.
1t is said that every cell in the body
contains trace of iodine.
Marine and KimbaH made an
epochal clinical demonstration of
the value of iodine in simple goiter.
Their wolk was done in an Ohio
city, where simple goiter was shown
to be six times as frequent IN girls
as in boys. Marine and Kimballl
assert that simple goiter is probably !

Her reputation was ruined in his

Another sickening thought assailed
her.
If he believed her to be evil might it
not reflect on her fathers training?
Might it not seem as if, after all, James
Horton had not been the upright per-
son that he was? Had her action
brought further suspicion on him?
Might not the minister feel it his
duty to tell his companions that he had
recognized DeLisle's chief dancer?

"A LII the time that Jimmy Skunk
IA was Furnishing Reddy Fox for
rolling him down hill in bar
rel and that Reddy was sneaking away
to the Green Forest to get out Of sight,
Peter Rabbit was lying low in the old
house Of Johnny Chuck right near the
place where Jimmy Skunk's wild ride
had come to an end. 1t had been a
great relief to Peter when he had seen
Jimmy hadn't been hurt in that wild
ride. Lying flat in the doorway of
Johnny Chuck's Old house Peter could
see all that went on without being seen
himself, and he could hear all that was
said.
He chuckled as he saw Reddy Fox
come up and his eyes were popping
right out with excitement as he waited
for what would happen next. He felt
sure that Reddy Fox was in for some.
thing unpleasant and he was glad. OF
course that wasn't bit nice of Peter.
Right down in his heart Peter knew
it, but he had been chased so often by
Reddy and given SO many dreadful
rights that he felt now that he was get
ting even and SO he chuckled. Sud-
denly that chuckle broke right off in
the middle and Peter. cried, "Ouch 7,
He had felt pain as If hot needle
had been thrust into him. 1t made
him almost jump out of the doorway.
But he remembered in time that it
would never, never do for him to show
himself outside for right away Reddy
Fox and Jimmy Skunk would both sus-
pect that he had had. something to do
with that wild ride of Jimmy's In the
barrel. As it was, Jimmy didn't know
anything about Reddy's chase Of Peter
and naturally thought that Reddy had
rolled that barrel down hill purposely,
and Reddy hadn't suspected that Peter
might have planned to make him run
into that barrel to get him into trouble.
So 1t wouldn't do to show himself now.
No, indeed.
All he could do was to kick and
squirm and twist his head around to
see what was happening. 1t didn't
take long to find out. Even as he
looked he felt another sharp pain
which brought another "Ouch!" from
him and made him kick harder than
ever. Two very angry little insects
were just getting ready to sting him
again and more were coming. They
were yellow jackets, which, you know,
belong to the hornet family and carry
very sharp little dances in their tails.
The fact is. this old house of Johnny
Chuck's had been deserted SO long that
the yellow jackets had decided that as
no one else was using it they would,
and they had begun to build their home
just inside the hail.
Poor Peter! What could he do? He
didn't dare go out and he simply
couldn't stay where he was. Whatever
hedid must be done quickly, for it
looked to him as If a regular army of
yellow-jackets was coming and those lit
tie lances they carried were about the

most painful things he knew Of BY
this time he had lost all interest in
what was going on outside. There was
quite enough going on inside; too much,
in fact and more coming. He remem-
bered that Johnny Chuck digs his house
deep down in the ground. He looked
down the long hall. 1t was dark down
there. Perhaps IF he went down there
these, angry little warriors wouldn't
follow him. II was worth trying any
way.
So Peter scrambled to his feet and
scurried down the long hall and as he
ran he cried, Ouch Ouehl Oh
Oh-oo" Those sharp little lances were
very busy and there was no way of
fighting back. At the end Of the long
hall was a snug little foOfa, very dark.
but cool and comfortable 1t was Just
as he had hoped. The yellow jackets
did not follow him down there They
had driven him away from fiEeire home,
which was right near the entrance,
and they were satisfied. But what a
fix he was in! What a dreadful fix !
He ached and smarted all over. NY
goodness, how he did smart And to
get out he would have to 70 right past
the yellow-jacket home again. Was
ever any one in a worse fix? Then,
too, he hadn't seen what happened to
Reddy Fox. He could guess, because
even down there he could smell that
awful perfume of Jimmy Skunk's, but
he had seen Reddy punished.
