DR.. Noguchi's Lesson

4 If you find that current accounts OF Chlnese
Swars. Nicaraguan expeditions, Balkan plot
1ings and international armament riyalries are
200 much for your faith in the ultimate arrival
Of world friendship give thought to DR..
Hideyo Noguchi, who recently died OF yellow
fever in Accra, West Africa.
II DR.. Noguchi was Japanese. working as a
staff member of the Rockefeller Foundation of
1.-The United States, cooperating with scientists
from the British Government Research Insti-
tute in an effort to wipe out yellow fever in
Africa.
/ And there, if you please, is story Of inter-
national cooperation more encouraging and
1eartening than all the armament conferences
and world courts ever invented.
|. African yellow fever is not quite the same
las the yellow fever of the West Indies, which
sIorgas knocked on the head. 1t is not the
Same as the South American yellow fever,
which DR.. Noguch himself did so much to con-
|1uer few years ago. 1t is more virulent and
more puzzling than either of these. DR.. Nogu-
chi went to Accra last fall to tackle it.
|. In January he himself contracted the dis
base. He studied his own case, extracting
blood from his own veins and making q serum
From it. Eventually he isolated the micro
Organism that causes the malady. Shortly af-
|terward he died.
It has been a long time since the newspapers
have told so inspiring tale. 1t is always stir.
Fling to read of heroism and self-sacrifice; and
|aothing can be much finer than the thought
81 that Japanese scientist alone on the pesti-
ential African coast, watching death approach
and coolly taking notes on its aspect Yet il
las an even broader significance than that.
We talk a great deal of the brotherhood OF
man. We feel that some day the world will bt
.able to transcend international boundaries ano
.eivalries, although we do not think it can b.
Hone for centuries Yet behold! In the towr
of Accra, Japan. America and Britain were
Evorking together to help Africa shake off Z
plague. While the rest Of us talked about
brotherhood, these men made it fact.
j DR.. Noguchi was more than scientist. His
life and death were symbols; symbols of thu
Dazzling, limitless possibilities that await thu
lay when all of US can see with the selfless
Piston of that Japanese doctor.

the basis of statistics from the Department of

In the old days Americas great exports were
raw materials. Europe sent ships here for
things like grain, cotton, lumber and COAL
Now, however, al per cent of our exports are
finished manufactured articles. Crude mate

That indicates the change. No longer does
Europe send us finished products and take our

Openwork embroidery under various
names and used for various purposes, is
O classic form of needlework There
fore ii is interesting 10 know Of the
different kinds and how they can be
distinguished
There are three distinct types-one
in which the entire fabric Is cut away,
one in which either the weft or the warp
threads are withdrawn and one in
which no threads are either cut or
drawn out. The open spaces result from
pressing stitches apart with Stiletto
to increase interstices between cross
threads in the weave.
The first kind of openwork is also
known as cutwork. punto tagliato. reti-
celia work or embroidery and various
other names. according to where It Is
or was worked and when. The name
'cutwork" is accurate. as the goods.
within definite bounds. is actually cut
away and the space partially filled in
with embroidery or lace stitchery. The
edges Of the goods are worked over,
usually. with buttonhole stitch. though
close oyercasting is sometimes employed.
The second kind Of openwork is COM
monty called drawnwork. In 1t the
threads running one way of the goods
only are cut. These are then drawn
out and the remaining threads form the
groundwork for embroidery. So exqui-
site was this. especially in the ancient
Indian drawnwork. that it is difficult
TO distinguish some of It from lace, a
Inagnifying glass being necessary 1t
was from this embroidery in particular
that lace making sprang. Indian drawn
work Is one of the highest forms of
genuine art needlecraft.
Today drawnwork Is very much in
evidence in Italian herstitching in all
its variations and in its combination
with other Italian drawnwork The
beauty Of all drawnwork consists largely
In its being done on counted threads.

creams which would be far too heavy
for the more sensitive skin on the face
can be used on the neck as often as you

sure, some brave souls manage to sleep
with a cold cream pack and face

can be achieved in easier and more
comfortable ways than thatl
