So early in the morn
Made Uncle Lucky sit upright
And give sleepy yawn.

To read the daily morning news.

Healthy Increase Shown
Korea Foreign Trade

Tokyo. July 27-(AP by MaiD-
Following up last years advantage of
nearly 100000 yen export surplus.
the trend in korea's foreign trade
continued to show remarkable i'm
provement during the first FIVE
months of the year. Statistics show
that Korea shipped abroad and to the
mainland merchandise valued at 1872
100000 yen as against imports of
139,000,000 yen.
The favorable condition is reflected
in the trend of the money and finance
markets where plenty of credit is
available for legitimate requirements.
The statement of the clearing house
banks in the principal business CEN
tiers of the territory shows deposits
are ever on the gain, standing at
100000 yen at the end of May, an
increaee of more than 100000 yen
over year ago. A study of the de-
tails discloses that, while there was
slight decline in current deposits.
there were notable increases in fixed
accounts. which were larger by more
than 10000 600 yen than a year ago.
On the other hand. advances were
down to 139.00o,0oo ven at the end of
May as against $4,000, 900 at the end
OF January this year.

SOMEWHAT CONTRADICTORY,
RlIT

Mrs, Gutenberg. said to be an
authority on child training, has as
sured herself of an audience by
boldly challenging the widely ac-
cepted theory that the children of
of today have too much freedom.
On the contrary, she declares, they
have too little and that's one of the
troubles.
She admits that young people are
taking liberties in their recreation,
today; that the reason for this is
that their parents fail to recognize
that they are grown up and have
denied them certain liberties they
formerly enjoyed.
She remarks that the period of
education of the youth is longer than
formerly and so they are longer kept
under restraint and are not permit
ted to act as though mature when
really they are. She argues that
they should be given more response
bility, that their opinions should be
respected by adults and ways be
found for encouraging development
of their growing powers.
Evidently common sense should
find the golden mean of the conflict
ing opinions. Meanwhile those of the
youth compelled to earn a hveli-
hood, paddle their own canoe and all
that, measure up well to the
standards and take no back seat out
of respect to the previous genera
ton.

The Menace of Goiter

(bOSIOH 1IdhoCliPAp
An astounding statement al to the
prevalence of goiter among girls ana
Young women was made before the
American Chemical Society in Los
Angeles, this week, by DR.. j. w.
Turrentine of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. He SAID
that as many as one-haf the girls
in a belt extending from New York
to the Rocky Mountains have the al
fiction in an incipient form and that
the number of cases which already
must amount to many thousands, is
increasing as the population increas-
eS.
DR.. Turrentine might have added
that there are other areas in which
the disease, an enlargement of the
thyroid gland is exceedingly COM
mon. Vermont and northern New
Hampshire, parts of Massachusetts
and the northwestern part of the
United States. especially the States
of Washington, Idaho. Colorado and
Montana, have many girls and young
wo,len victims of the disease. IT
seems to prevail especially in noun
famous sections, and notably where
there is limestone.
It has come to be regarded gener-
ally among medical men that goiter
is caused by the absence Of iodine
from food or drinking water. Hence
the remedy prescribed is taking 10
| dine into the system either in food
or drink, or through the respiratory
organs.
1t was found that the japanese, at
home, using seaweed in some form
as an article of diet are immune
from goiter; also that in some sea-
shore localities where sea spray sat-
urates the air, the affection is said
to be unknown. SO physicians de-
clare that iodine is a preventive and
can effect cure where the case has
not progressed too far. Allowed 20
run its course, the disease becomes
most uncomfortable and debilita ting,
frequently reaching the stage where
| fibroid growth develops and serious
surgical operation is a last resort.
1t is urged by DR.. Turrentine who
is regarded as an authority, that
| growing children be given daily
portion of iodine amounting to four
millionths of an ounce-a few drops.
| Among the best ways this can be
i introduced into the system would be
by eating the thousandth part of an
| ounce of dried algae, or seaweed,
though two and a half ounces of
oysters would contain the same
amount. Iodine exists in milk, IN
wheat, in eggs, in lettuce and in
fish, but it would require 24O0 ounc-
es of wheat. 500 ounces of milk, 440
ounces of lettuce. 200 ounces of eggs.
or "a ounces of salt water fish to
furnish the same quantity as would
be found in the thousandth part of
the ounce of dried algae.
The menace to the health of grow
ing girls in large sections of the
United States from this serious af-
motion is so grave that every pos
slble preventative measure should be
adopted.
