PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE
BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. d.

Of Pavlov. Darwin attempted to show
the same thing.
Parental training and example may
have something to do with handed.
ness--most parents prefer the right,
hand and teach the child from the
first to use the right hand. But how
come some children persist obstinate
ly in the use Of the left hand even
though their parents are right handed
and teach right yhandedness?
How come a man buttons his coat
one way and a woman buttons hers
the other? And why can neither tell
off hand which way he or she buttons
his coat. but must look at the coat
to see?
If handedness is merely a matter Of
habit. haphazardly acquired; 1t would
not be difficult for a teacher to COM
pei a child to change from natural
left handedness to right handedness,
nor would II be a matter OF any. par
ticularly Importance But there are
good reasons to believe. that it isn't
such simple matter.

At the Commercial Club luncheon last Monday the In- dustries Committee proposed a resolution against the use of herring for the manufacture of fertilizer. The resolution was adopted by unanimous vote. Copies of the same will be sent to the Governor, the Dele gate to Congress from Alaska, and others who should be ex- pected to use their influence to nrotect the herring industry of Alaska.
 The text of the resolution is as follows:
 Whereas, in view of the rap i'd depletion of the herring fisheries by the wasteful meth ods employed by those engaged in the manufacture of fertiliz- CT and whereas, the herring is the natural food for other fishes and is indispensable for bait purposes in other fisheries and is also, a very valuable food fish for human consumption; and whereas, we believe that by proper restriction this food fish may be preserved and in- creased; therefore be it
