OUR ENEMIES

One cannot touch life at many
points and do mans work in the
world without arousing more or less
of what may be called enmity, criti-
cism. jealousy, Misrepresentation,
SANDER, contempt .. 49,. -.
Nor IS any man required to ignore
enmity. We have a personality, an
influence, a character, a work, to
guard and keep clear. Truth is not
an impersonal thing and life is not
play of generalties. 1t is a personal
world, and the contact of good and
evil is personal; therefore it breeds
enmity and compels conflict For
bearance, patience, and Indifference
are indeed the greatest part of our
duty before enmity, but never dull
acquiescence and often relentless
war. All depends on the question
and the issue at stake. We may suf-
fer personally, but we have 10 right
to let truth suffer. When we make
this distinction and keep personal
feeling in allegiance enmity is not so
hard a thing to bear. Rather, in a
superior man it beeets a sort of ec-
stacy. He walks on his way amidst
averted faces in triumph and
the kingdom will surely come.

PREVENT CANCER

Cancer is the great human men
ace. 1t is increasing by leaps and
bounds. If anything, it is increas-
ing more rapidly in the United
States than it is in the British Isles
Of those now living in the British
Isles, 100000 are doomed to die of
cancer if they do nothing t0~prevent
it. In the United States the doomed
number is 100000 and might cas-
lily rise to 100000 or 2O,00o,o00."
This remarkable statement is
made by Sir w. Arbuthnot Lane,
Bart, one of the worlds most emil
nent surgeons and dititians, in an
article appearing in the June Goth
issue of The Dearborn Independent.
According to Sir Arbuthnot, can
Ger is not caused by the bacillus
that scientists have so long sought
and not yet found, but rather by
poison created in the body by the
food that is eaten It is a filth dis
ease, and its preventions is accomp-
lished by keeping the digestive tract
thoroughly drained of its accumula-
tions.
Continuing the Doctor say
'What we should do then, if we
would avoid cancer, is to eat whole
wheat bread and raw fruits, and veg-
etables, shunsing all meat, first that
we may be better nourished, second
that we may more easily eliminate
waste products and thus adequately
drain the house in which our cells
live. Whoever foregoes white bread
viii perform a great service for him.
self It is deadly"
It is a difficult task to change the
food habits of nation or to induce
the people to take sufficient exercise
each day. Sir Arbuthnot says, how
ever, that whoever will correct his
diet to a reasonable extent, take rea-
sonable exercise and keep his diges-
tive tract absolutely clean, need have
no fear of cancer.

North Park Water Users
Victims of Bad Politics

DESlDENTS of territory outside the corporate
IN limits of Seattle cannot sprinkle their lawns if
they depend on the Seattle city water supply. They
have been so informed by the water department The
water department says it has taken this action to
conserve the supply so city dwelers may have the
first call
The real for this action Is the fact that the
other afternoon newspaper is still on mudsnging
jag and is determined to carry its campaign of abuse
coercion and Understanding propaganda to the bitter
end.
The latest agitation the other afternoon newspaper
has worked out of its ugly system is designed to
force North Park territory into the city limits. The
paper called George Russell superintendent of the
city water department to cut off the supply out there
on the pretense that there not enough water to
take of both city and outside needs. Russell,
politically timd, yielded promptly.
North Park residents and others outside the
poraton will become parts of Seattle proper when
they deem it practicable.
Cutting off their water rations isn't going to hasten
matters at all. If they to be governed by such
political towards George Russell they likely will
stay outside as long as they can.
Water users outside Seattle pay twice as much for
their water do Seattle residents. The water depart
ment is self-supporting and the fact that outsiders
pay no city taxes has nothing to do with the ques-
ton The water department accepted their appca-
tons for service and it is morally if not legally bound
to live up to its contract.
