young children from pneumonia and respiratory diseases largely due to to the narrow chest and confined breathing space so characteristic Of the rachitic child.
 "That child has bow legs because his mother lots him walk too soon' is the popular explanation or the two or three yeE old youngster with badly bowel legs. This thoroughly theory Is, after all, not so far from the truth. such chil- dren usually have suffered from rickcts, The most marked effect of this disease Is to returd the develop ment of the bony tissues of the body, the long bones of the arms and legs Their legs, there- fore may be said to be too young, to support the weight of their bodies, When they attempt to stand on their feet, the bones of the legs bend under the weight of the body like tender green twig,
 "Rickets may be occa- stoned by one of two factors, or by both togeth CT: CD inadequate exposure to sunlight, @ a diet deficient in food accessory vitsmin, whose nature is as yet un- known, but which enables the body to store calcium and phosphorus in the bones from the food taken into the body. The disease is most pre- valent during the winter months in north temperate climates, particu- larly among races with dark skins in which the pigment still further re- tards the effects of the suns rays. On the other hand, the disease is practically unknown among negroes in the West Indies who are receiving an abundance of sunlight, or among the Eskimos, who are used to little sunlight but whose diet from early infancy consists largely of fats and oils of fish. Babies between three months and one year of age are most susceptible to the disease, par ticuarly if they are within this age period during the late winter months when the seasonal incidence is at its peak.
 Psychologists are at loss to ex- plain how the suns rays or the oil ot fish flyers can deposit calcium in the bones, but the fact that they do Ina! been amply demonstrated clinicallI and in experiments with animals There are, therefore, two methods
 of attacking rickets: CD Exposing
 the babies directly to the rays of tn
 sun or to the ultra violet rays of {
 quartz lamp; or CD giving doses 0
 fish liver oil three times day dur
 ing the period of life when ricket
 is most likely to occur. Sunlight il

SEEK CAUSE AND
 CURE OF RICKETS
Three Out Of Four Develop Dis ease Before One Year Of Age

New York, Feb. 2O.--Three out or four infants in a New York tene- ment district develop ricl1ets before they are a year old according to report made public today by the New York association for improving the condition of the poor, giving the re- suits of a campaign to combat this disease which the A. l, C. r. has been carrying on for the last five wears. The report indicates that rIckcts, a winter disease, the most marked effect of which is to retard the development of the bony tissues of the very young child, particularly the long bones of arms and legs, IS at present a serious obstacle to child health. It is responsible, the A. ], C. r. finds, for the fact that fully 25 per cent of the children in one New York tenement district have serious orthapedic defects, such as bow-lcgs, knock knees, funnel chest" and spinal curvatures, and lHlS Ilaluly IS dlSO uflu lO bt Idl bC- y responsible for the appalling death rate of young children in this district from pneumonia and other respitory diseases. The report, in part, follows:
 "The association for improving the condition of the poor is carrying on it's annual campaign against Tickets in the Mulberry district in New York city. Five years of intensive work has shown that rickets in early infancy presents a real obstacle to child health, It is no exaggeration 10 say that s per cent of the babies in this district develop rickets be- fore they are a year old. The after effects of this condition are seen in the large number of children from two to six years of age (fully 25qb) who have serious orthopedic defects and in the appalling death-rate oi

HERE'S A GREAT THEATRICAL
COMEDY-DRAMA

Billy Sullivan, we'll known to
movie fans wherever the famous
Leather Pusher series have been
shown, will be seen at Dudley's Fri
day and Saturday in a brand new
boxing story, "The Fear Fighter"
In this snappy new comedy-drama,
produced by Harry J. Brown and
released through Rayart Pictures,
young Sullivan is seen as Billy Grit
fin, a young man who, having been
brought up by a loving and doting
mother and never having had oc-
casion to do anything much in the
way of fighting, is naturally some
what cowed by the prospect of a
test fight with a fight promoter.
This promoter, however, happens to
be the father of the girl he loves, and
there's nothing to do but go through
with it-as the father, having eccen-
trlcities of is own, fatty refuses to
allow his daughter to become en-
gagged to the boy until he shows
the stuff he's made of. How the
boy is knocked out by the girls ia
Their, suffers loss of memory, falls in
with an ex-champ who put him thru
a thorough and efficient course of
training, and how short time before
ne is scheduled to fight a reigning
champ he regains his memory with
a consequent loss of all his boxing
knowledge; yet, persuaded by his
mother and the girl he loves, goes
into the ring and miraculously wins
out, is said to form one of the most
absorbing comedy-drama ever
screened.
Featured in support of Young
Sullivan is Ruth Dwyer, who will be
remembered for her work in "Seven
Chances" with Buster 'Keaton, and
in Going the Limit" and "The
Canvas Kisser" with Richard Holt.
