"lndependence Week"

TO mark the Scsquicentenial Of the Declaration
of Independence and the centenary of the death
of Thomas jefferson, the commission appointed by
the government and headed by President Coolidge,
has decided that the week from June 90 to July S
shall be celebrated throughout the country as
independence Week." Governors, mayors and civic
organizations asked to cooperate with the COM
mission in presenting patriotic~and educational
program. 1t has also been suggested that a
tribute to Jeffersons stand for religious freedom
there be some demonstration for religious tolerance.
What more fitting combination than freedom and
tolerance? Strictly speaking, there is such thing
as absolute freedom; it is comparative term, with
limitations. The greatest freedom enjoy is only
the tolerance of others. Let US keep that thought
with during Independence week."

Fighting the Quacks
Duluth Herald)

The problem Of quacRs in the medical profession
his been discussed from many angles. National,
state and district medical associations have been
condemning and dcploring them from time imn1cm-
orial, but still they thrive and prosper
Why? The doctors themselves have the answer,
according to the Morris Tribune, of Minnesotas
leading weekly newspapers. In forceful editorial
on the subject the other day the Tribune said:
1.-THE Minnesota doctors had big meeting in
Minneapolis the first Of the week. and imported one
of the big guns Of the profession to tell them that
America is the most quack-rdden nation the
face Of the earth. Why shouldn't it be? Every
thing in America. from chewing gum to Christianity,
is "sold on merit Of high-class truthful advcrtis-
lng while the medical profession clngs To a moss
grown idea that truth in medicine might lose caste,
If it were publicly proclaimed. The modern sales
manshp methods abandoned completely to the
quacks.
If the medical profession would realize that they
arc living in the twentieth century, and would junk
certain outworn traditions, they would perform
great service both for the profession and for the
public. When all is said the plain truth is that in
this day and age of the world and especially here
in America, the public buys advertised goods, be-
lieves in advertised goods, and is suspicious of the
unadvetised article. Occultism doesn't go in Amer
lea, either in medicine motor cars"
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1926-06-01
The Human Body

Although long recognized by medical men as
wonderful machine and by artists as the acme
of grace and beauty, the human body is only now
beginning to come into it's own as an expression of
all that is best and highest in man, after a long
period Of prudery, during which it was regarded
something shameful.
mans body is usually too muscular to be truly
graceful from Of line rhythm and so it re-
mains for the more slender, less muscular feminine
form to convey the utmost in natural beauty. And
to person with clean mind it conveys the clean
est, highest type Of beauty.
