scURvY

CCURvY is a strange disease which
~ used to be regarded as peculiar to
sailors. On long voyages, when for
weeks and months the crews of slow
sailing vessels. without any means for
keeping fresh foods, lived OF salt beef,
picked pork and hard crackers, this
disease was common. Then the Brit
ish authorities, finding that any kind
Of fruit juice would prevent or cure
it, passed a law requiring all British
vessels TO carry a supply of orange,
lemon and lime juice. So in the slang
of the sea, English sailing vessels were
for years known as lime ULCERS"
Today, with steamers largely replac-
ing sailing vessels and with refrigera-
tors and storerooms on board, scurvy
is a rare disease at sea, except in cases
Of shipwreck or accident.
But scurvy is by no means confined
TO sailors. 1t is also found in poor
houses and other institutions where in
mates are confined for months, to a
diet which does not include enough
fresh, raw vegetable food. This is es-
pecially true of Infants in the first two
years Of life.
The type OF scurvy frequently found
| twenty years ago among bottle-fed
babies was that of a pale, weak, list
less child, with soft, swollen, blush
gums, arms and legs swollen and ten
der, and frequent bleeding from the
gums, lip and under the skin. Educa-
ton of mothers and nurses on the prev
alence of this disease has greatly re-
duced both its frequency and its Sc
verify, SO that the old plainly-marked
eases are now seldom seen. The pres
emit form is that of a child that is
restless, irritable, with tender arms
and legs, which has no appetite, does
mot gain weight, cries when handled,
and has a rapid pulse and respiration.
The trouble is never severe in the be-
ginning, but the child fails slowly and
generally dies of exhaustion.
But whether on land or sea, the
treatment is the same and the recov
cry is rapid Any fresh fruit or vege
table or fruit juice, oranges or orange
juice. lemon juice. fresh or canned
tomatoes, raw milk, potatoes, carrots.
turnips, spinach or lettuce. will soon
transform the fretful, wretched baby
to a happy growing child. In fact, the
best authorities on children now hold
that all babies from the second month
on. should have orange juice every
day. not only to cure but to prevent
this wretched disease.

A Realistic Literature of Hope Always Warns
Us Against Optimism
By GLENN FRANK. in Century Magazine.

While incoming optmists may write a literature that will give us the
spirit Of hope, only responsible scientists, philosophers, administrators
and authentic spiritual seers can write a literature that will give is the
anatomy Of hope. Social cheer leaders might do a little toward dullng
the despair of a new Dark ages, but only social engineers can usher n a
new renaissance. A realistic literature of hope has nothing in common
with the fadle and foolhardy optimism of men who regard optimism as
a profession rather than a deduction from the facts in the case. 1t IS,
then. a literature of hope, not a literature of optimism, that l am dis
cusGng here. Between the two there may be a difference a wide as the
world. A literature of optimism may be a literature that creates IN us
merely spirit of expectancy that blindly believes a renaissance lies ahead
A literature of hope is a literature that uncovers for us the unused re-
sources of health in our civilization and suggests to us a workable technlc
for using them. And a realistic literature of hope always warns U.S. against
optimism unless we set ourselves manfuIy at work to harness the forces
of health it has pointed out to us.

This Verse Is the Very Negation of the Poetry
of Walt Whitman


Read through any collection of free verse published today, and count
mn the number of utterances that ar concerned with some form of dis
taste or even disgust. On the lines of the old songs of these might be
called the songs Of the seasck. There is nothing in whcht new poet
fances himself so much as in saying, like a barmaid at a breakfast, that
he does not fancy anything. There is nothing more notable in his literary
experiments than the incessant statement that things obtrude themselves
repulsively II look loathsome and uncean. Now, whether we. think this
poetry or the negaton Of poetry, there is no doubt whatever that It Is n
yery negation of Walt Whitman's poetry It exists to say the exact oppo-
site to what Whitman existed to say in poems like "Ihis Compost Whit
man said that even things that look dirty to everybody else looked healthy
to him. The new poet says that things which look healthy to everybody
else look dirty to him.

The Federal Government Has Strayed Far From
It's Legitimate Business
By CALVIN COOLIDGE. at Budget Meeting.

Unfortunately the federal government has strayed far aheld from its
legitimate business. It has trespassed upon fields where there should be
no trespass. If we could confne our federal expenditures to the legitimate
obligations and functions of the federal government, a material reduction
would be apparent.
But far more important than this would be its effect upon the fabric
Of our constitutional form Of government, which tends to be weakened
and undermined by this encroachment.
The cure for this is not il our hands. 1t lies with the people. It
will come when they realize that the laws under which the federal govern
ment hands ont contributions to the states is placing upon them a double
burden Of taxation-fedeal taxation in the first instance to raise the
MONEYS which the government donates to the states, and state taxation in
the second instance to meet the extrayaganees of state expenditures which
are tempted by the federal donations.

Country Will Be Covered by Windmills Working
Electric Motors
BY J. B. S. HALDANE, University of Cambridge.

The country will be covered with rows Of metallic windmiIs work
ing electric motors which in their turn supply current at a very high volt
zoe to great electric mains. At suitable distances there will be great
power stations where during windy weather the surplus power will be used
for the electrolyhc decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen.
These gases will be iquefed and stored in watts, vacuum-jacketed res
eryoirs. probably sunk in the ground. If these reservoirs are sufficiently
large. the loss of LIQUID due to leakage inwards Of heat will not be great;
thus the proportion evaporahng daily from a reservoir 100 yards square
by so feet deep would not be 1000 Of that lost from a tank measuring
2 feet each way. In times of calm the gases will be recombned IN explo-
sion motors working dynamos which produce electrical energy once more,
or more probably in oxidation cells.
