TWO TRADITIONS ABOLISHED

Two traditions on the University of
Idaho campus. both Of which have
extended over many years, were de-
cried by the inter-fraternity council
at it's last meeting, and as a result
probably will be abolished. The first
is the women's parade through fra
ternity houses before Idaho's game
with Washington State College and
the second is the giving of favors at
formal dances.

How are you goin' about it?" Doc
asked.
"Surest way" said James, "is to
find out his stunts, and then throw
those things in his way. When the

that the superstitions didn't work out.
He'll come to his senses then"
Sounds good" Doc confessed.

Doctrine of Signature.

Nothing in the history of medicine
is so curious as the quaint old doc
trine of signatures, by which it was
believed that every plant bore some
mark upon it which would tell you
exactly what it was for. Plants with
heart shaped leaves were considered
to be good for the heart; the liver
leaf of hepatica was good for the
liver. What all medieval physicians
were looking for was a panacea, some
medicine that would cure anything.
Following the doctrine of sigma
lures logically. a plant that looked
like a man would be this panacea
and so because the root of the ginseng
is generally forked and looks like
the body and two legs of man. the
Chinese believed that ginseng would
cure anything. Long ago ginseng III
China had been SO much dug UP that
it was extremely rare. in great de-
mand and very costly. Our own
ginseng has consequently been much
dug for sale in China. AS matter
Of fact il is of absolutely ho medicinal
value.
Now what do you know about
that?

What. No Resistance?

Any health teacher who attempts
to explain the occurrence of disease
by suggesting that the victims in
fection by the germs of the disease
came about because the victim

other contributing factor rs talking
through his hat. indulging his imagi-

1t is time to call the bluff of those
who prate so much about this fancied
lowering OF resistance. For long
while now they have been able TO
get away with 1t, thanks TO the
thoroughly misinformed popular sup
port they can count on.

My Neighbor Says:

Save all the rainwater You
can get for washing clothes.
Scarcely any soap is required.
When soda is added to dish
water no soap is needed and
there is no greasy rim around
the dishpan.
Never store food for any
length of time in paper bags.
The paper of such bags is
manufactured from rags, which
are, however. TO some extent
sterilized and cleansed during
manufacture. but the paste
with which the bags are stuck
is usually of the coarsest de-
scription. Good tins. or
earthenware or glass jars with
well fitting lids answer the
purpose best.
Cane chair bottoms that
have sagged may be made as
tight as ever by washing them
with hot water and leaving
them to dry in the open air.
Damp towels should never
be put into clothes basket or
bag and left there for days
before being sent to the wash.
Mildew is almost sure to re-
suit. Before being put into
the basket towels should be
carefully dried.
