October %, 1920. carried what was
apparently the first suggestion for

the people 20 use this week in such
a way as would most effectively
disseminate among the people ac-
curate information in regard to-
the condition and needs of the

the value of education, and create
such interest as would result In
better opportunities for education
and larger appropriations for

Water Really Chief
Constituent of Body

Water is more important sub
stance than we are inclined TO adj
NIT. Besides its value as bey-
erage, its utility as a home for fish,
its function as a common carrier
of the worlds shipping, its use as
a washing medium, it plays an I'M
portant role in human life as the
chief constituent of the body.
The human body is approximate
ly two-thirds water. An average
person of 15Q pounds weight car
ries around with him at all times
about 100 pounds, or. II gallons of
water. This water supply Is very
delicately adjusted so that the in
take Of water and the water result
ing from oxidative processes bal
ances the losses occurring from the
various excretory processes.
This compensatory balance some
times fails. The extremes of NAL
regulation which result are repre-
sented by, thirst and anhydremia
on the one hand and edema on the
other.
SHELTON of the University of
Minnesota found that the muscles
contain about half of the total wa
ter supply of the body, the skin
about one-fifth and the watery
blood only about one-fourteenth of
the total. When marked loss or
withdrawal of water from the body
occurs the resultant drying up is
taken care of principally by the
muscles and not by the blood. The
muscles lose only a small proper
ton of their water even in the ex-
treme cases, and the loss per unit
of weight is smaller than for ctn-
er organs, but the total is larger
because of the large capacity Of
the muscular system.
