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

1t is the intention of the Health
Department to run series of short
articles on "Goiter" for educational
purposes. Goiter is very prevalent
in Ely, and if it is possible to pre-
vent it, 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. Its incidence is high in Al
berta and Adami has written of
its frequency in the st. Lawrence
Valley. In the United States Gil
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-
densic 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
ascribed 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 Kimball 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

deserved one.
The news that H. c. Kelly, who
for several years has acceptably
filled the position of superintend-
ent at the Chandler, ha resigned,

Chicago on a visit.
John Pasich, who was for several

A Kentucky eongressman proposes
to introduce ! bill IN eengress calling
for ths erection in Warrington, D. c.,
Of . monument to the Mothers Of
America.
While nona Of u here in JulesburE
know this Congressman personally, all
Of us would lhkA to pat him on the
hack for his good judgment. We've
spent millions Of dollars for monu-
ments to men who have won honors
in war; other millions for shafts to
heroes on land and sea; we've honored
our dead with monuments that will
stand forever, and yet we have never
spent ore penny toward honoring the
one who gave to the United States ev-
cry man who has done anything
great-we have neglected the moth
ers Of the men to whom we build
monuments.
Many Thousands Of dollars spent for
monuments in this country have been
fooishly spent. No question Of that.
But where is the man who can raise
his hand and say that we would make
= mistake to take few hundred thou
sand, or even a few millions that we
as . government spend foolishly and
erect the greatest, grandest and fin
est monument Of all 10 Mothers-
those who have really made this ma
ton great?

THE WOMEN
VOTERS

Woman suffrage seems to be pro-
ducing good results as whole. Yet
many women are disappointed by the
easy going way in which many Of
their sex exercise the right of suf-
frage.
A lady who was very active in the
suffrage cause recently expressed
some disappointment along this line,
although she claimed that she could
see substantial results already attain
ed through female suffrage. But she
admitted that women were not keep
ing as well informed on public af-
fairs as they ought to, and she
thought they did not know what was
going on as we'll as their husbands.
The majority of men make it their
habit to read some newspaper every
day. The majority of women have
not perhaps acquired that habit.
There is tendency among the
women voters to wait until q political
campaign is under way, and then they
give considerable attention to public
affairs. They make inquiries as to
what their various friends think of
this or that candidate, and gradually
develop impressions of their own.
But thorough intelligence on poll
tics is not formed by asking other

TT'6 ALL A
MISTAKE

We occasionally encounter in our
rounds Of JulesburE and the neighbof-
ing community the type Of man who
believes that . Newspaper is eager to
publish derogatory things. or items
about people that are sure to en-
barass or render those same people
unhappy. This 10 . mistake, and one
we regret to call attention to, because
it is 30 unnecessary.
There isn't . newspaper man in
this country but who could spring .
sensation in his community II he
wanted to, at any time, by merely
printing the things he knows, but does
not print. Deciding what not to print
is the most troublesome part OF
editing a newspaper. How many news
items are suppressed for innocent rel
atives and for the public good nobody
outside a newspaper office has any
idea of. In some instances the man
who flies into passion because a
newspaper prints something about
him which he considers uncomplimen-
tary has every reason TO feel CRATE
full to the editor for publishing 20 lit
tie of what he knows about the case
and the circumstances surrounding it.
And otter times the loudest buffer ..
the man who is more guilty than the
public generally credits him with be-
ing. A big noise is often device to
cover cowardice.
Newspapers put up with more
bluffing than any other agency. Not
because they lack the courage to "call
the bluff" but because their editors
are unwilling to use the power they
have in hand to send sorrow into the
innocent hearts Of the relatives Of the
man who is doing the bluffing. No,
gentle raader. an editor doesn't hunt
trouhys. On The other hand, he is
kept pretty busy turning his back on
that which hs Knows can only. stir up
trouble. and that cannot do anybody
any good OF make anybody happy.

people what they think, 30 much ~
BY patient and continuous reading Of
the days news. The candidates are
all on their good behavior when elec-
ton time comes, and all Of them can
put up plausible claims and argu-
ments.
Women as 4 rule are more conscien-
tious than men, but it would seem
quite . burden to many of them to
read the congressional and legislative
news every day. Many Of their hus-
bands are remiss in that respect too.
But one has faith to believe that wo-
men will keep getting more and more
interested in public affairs, and real
ize how closely the daily political de-
velopments affect their home and civ
interests.

YEAR

year of 1924, which means that we are
going to hear a good deal of noise
from the calamity howlers. In fact,
we have suspicion that this is going
to be an unusually fruitful year for
the fellow who is always predicting
dire calamities to people, state and
nation.
Residents Of Julesburg should keep
this is mind and take the calamity
howler's statements with q huge grain
of salt. We should never lose sight
Of the fact that the worst things never
happen, and that nothing that does
happen ID 80 bad but it might be
worse. The political ranter is going
to be abroad in the land. and false
statements are going to fill the air.
We are going to be promised relief
from taxes and we are going to be
offered better road legislation and
market laws that will mean higher
prices for the things we raise. De-
pend upon this, and get ready to

question but taxes could be reduced
in this country without seriously in
