HOW TO KEEP
WELL
DR.. FREDERICK r. GREEN
Editor of "HEALTH"
PREVENTING RIcKETs

O. 1926. Western Newspaper unionl

PICKETS is disease of infancy
= and very early childhood. It lis
most common among bottle-fed ba-
bies, whose food does not contain
enough bone bulking matter, or In
breast-fed babies where, on account
Of the mothers physical condition,
the milk is poor in quality. This may
occur II the babies have followed each
other too rapidly and the mother has
not had time to regain her strength
after nursing one baby before she Is
called upon to nurse another.
The disease comes on about the
time of the first teeth. The child is
irritable, has fever and sweating at
night and is pale, flabby and puny.
There are hard knobs on the ribs
In front. where they join the carti-
lagos. The head is large and the
teeth are slow in appearing and bad.
ly formed. The large bones, espe-
cially those in the legs are bent. The
child is nervous, irritable and sub
ject to fits.
Much attention has been given to
this disease 10 recent years. 1t is
now known to be due to lack of proper
food and especially of sunlight. A
rickety child is like a plant which
has grown in dark cellar. Cod liver
oil is still used in treating the disease,
as it has been for many years, but
we know now that the child must
have sunlight If its recovery is to be
either rapid or complete.
Our local health departments are
much interested in ricketts,, not so
much because 1t has high death rate
by itself, as because the child with
ricketts, is weak and has no ability
to resist such diseases as pneumonia
and bronchitis. So while few chill
dren die Of ricketts,, the death rate
among rickety children from colds,
pneumonia and bronchitis is far above
the normal
In 1923 the health department of
New Haven, Connecticut decided to
try and reduce the amount of ricketts,
among New Haven children. As soon
as birth was reported, health de-
partment nurse was sent to see the
mother. AS soon as she was able, the
mother was asked to bring the baby to
the health bureau. There the nurse
showed the mother how to give the
baby cod liver oil and how to give
1t a sun bath, beginning by few
minutes summing of the hands and
face, gradually increasing the length
and the amount of the exposure until
the whole body was exposed for an
hour day.
Experience for three years now has
shown that simply by sunlight and
cod liver oil, ricketts, can be con-
trolled and practically prevented

HAY INSPECTION

Service which may later be of de-
cidcd value to Imperial Valley is
being inaugLrated today. inspection

now becoming available for the first

Irvine points out that this SER
vice may be made of decided finan-
cial value to hay growers of this
county, if they will organize and
request that inspection service be
made available in Los Angeles.
At the present time, Irvine
states, Imperial Valley hay has a
bad name in the Los Angeles mar
ket, due to shipments of inferior
quality alfalfa which have been
made. While much good hay is
shipped, If there is any question,
Imperial Valley hay is discriminat-
ed against and the shipper has no
recourse, according to Irvine. If

that if the federal standards now

BAD WEATHER
FAILS TO HALT
PRESS CARRIERS

They may not be exactly heroes in
the usual sense of the word, but they
are what the old west would call " a
dead game bunch, and for the in
formation of Press readers we are
speaking of the IL Youngsters who
deliver the Press in various parts
of the city.
No need to tell folks that yester-
day was a miserable dav. Mud and
water everywhere and just the sort
of day when one is glad to be inside.
But newspaper, like many other
businesses, cannot stop for bad
weather. 1t has to go on regardless
of any Inconvenience.
Yesterday afternoon the Press
carriers reported little ahead of
the usual time, garbed in any sort
of clothes that would afford some
protection from the heavy rain. a
couple of the boys had boots. some
had heavy shoes, two or three de-
cided that going barefoot was the
best way for them to deliver their
routes. The thought occurs, how
many of their elders would like to
have pattered around the streets
yesterday in their bare feet.
AS soon as the paper was off the
press, the boys started out on their
usual rounds. Nothing was said to
them about being sure to deliver all
their papers. They were requested
to get the papers into dry places
wherever possible, and that was all.
In the course of the evening sew
eral subscribers dropped into the
office for their papers, and express
ed surprise when told that deliveries
had been made as usual. There
was not single "kick' for non
delivery, received at Press office.
This afternoon the boys started
out in conditions that were perhaps
a little more disagreeable than those
which prevailed yesterday, but the
Press management is confident they
will keep up the good record they
established yesterday.
The Press is proud of its carrier
force, and wishes to thank them for
their good work, also their parents
for permitting the Youngsters to
carry on" under present condi-
tions. We are certain also, that our
subscribers are equally proud of the
boys.
The carriers are Sherman FL

thing among engaged persons and
that the engagement would be brok-

Hubbard claimed that on the first

A demand that Kenneth G.. Or

graphed from the distict attorney g
office here this afternoon to Chief
of Police Morgan A. Collins.

Dennison said that Los Angeles
authorities had not been notified
of Ormiston s arrest in the east, and
declared he was dissatisfied with
the methods used thus far in trans
porting the prisoner west.
cit is mystery to me what the
Chicago Officers are trying to do
with Ormiston,' the prosecutor
said. Ormiston is not wanted in
Chicago. We have criminal COM

strikes me that he should be brought
directly to Los Angeles and not to
Chicago.
I'VE will extradite Ormiston just
as soon as he can be located. There
is altogether too much secrecy sur

by United Press Leased Wire


WASHINGTON, Dee. 1O.-Secre-
tary Of the Navy Curtis ID. Wilbur
today refused to tell the oil con
spiracy trial about the 1921 Jap
anese war scare reports of Admiral
Gleavcs.
+. l.. Dohcny, multi millionaire
defendant, had testified the reports
told Of a mobilization of the Jap
ancsc navy which some navy Off
GERS believed was directed at the
Pacific coast of the United States.
Wilbur was excused Immediately
after Defense Attorney Hogan de-
veloped that Wilbur did not bring
into court several score of confiden-
tial dispatches sent the navy de-
partment in 1921 by Admiral
Gleaves of the Pacific fleet.
The governor did not cross exam
inc Wilbur, who spent only about
eight minutes on the stand.
Neither Justice Hoehling nor the
defense made any move to force
Wilbur to produce the papers. viii
/ bur left the courtroom Immediately
Hogan indicated his satisfaction
with the move, designed to impress
the jury with the strategic import
, ance of the Pearl Harbor oil tank
project.
Doheny Testifies
Doheny, co-defendant with Albert
B. Fall in the oil conspiracy trial
and Owen j. Roberts, chief counsei
for the government, engaged i'll two
| tense hours of questions and an
swers today that kept the court
room spectators leaning forward in
their seats, but failed to develop
sensational testimony.
Roberts ended his cross examina-
tion after Doheny, his arm in u
sling and his bright blue eyes peer
ing intently at the prosecutor, had
testified:
That he made the second Pearl
Harbor contracts and the Fix Hills
leases of Dee. II with "thc idea
; cf profit.'
That he first learned the project s
| legality was questioned about the
time the first contracts were made,
but that he had the opinion of three
authorities that it was legal.
| That there was no reason why he
shouldn t have told anyone about
, his 100000 loan to Fall and that
the unusual circumstances surround
ing it were not intended to keep the
transaction secret.
Roberts brought out that though
noheny testified yesterday under
, direct examination that Fall had
asked him for the money in cash
instead of by check at the senate
oil hearing, he had said he didn t
know how he happened to send it
in cash.
The 20 year old defendant who
yesterday rccountcd a colorful
story of his life rs a surveyor, wait
cr, school teacher, miner, prospector
and oil developer, was questioned
briefly by Defense Attorney Frank

after six hours of testimony.
