Effect OF Action
The hair seems to stand on end,
the eyes bulge, the mouth becomes
dry, the skin becomes pale. diges-

sugar is poured into the blood. since
sugar is rapidly used up by extra

chemistry of the body. with the
growth of the skin and with the
functioning of the tissues generally.
Overfunction of the gland and

Editor Journal Of tho American
Medical Association and of Hy-
gcia, the Health Magazine
A gland IL a portion OF the body
that develops a secretion.
The breasts are glands and milk
Is the secretion.
The thyroid Is gland and it gives
the body substance. thyroxin,
necessary for many body activities.
The salivary glands secrete the
saliva that moistens the mouth and
contains ferments that help to d.
gest the starches.
The stomach has glands that
secrete hydrochloric acid and pepsin
and thus help digestion.
The anatomist and psychologist
divide the glands into two varieties,
those that pour out their secretions
on the surface such as the sweat
glands. or into the intestines such
as the salivary glands and those Of
the stomach and bowels. and those
that pour their secretions into the
blood. by which they are carried
throughout the body. The latter are
called endocrine glands. or glands
of internal secretion.
Adncnalin
The adrenal glands lie Just above
the kidney and are therefore some
times called suprarenal glands. They
give az one secretion 4 powerful
substance called adrenalin which
can make its presence known when
one part in one hundred million
parts Of blood Is present.
The thyroid gland furnishes, Of
Its main secretion, an amount esti-
mated a. a thousandth of 4 gram
per day. There are $50 grams in q
pound. That 10 an amount equiva-
lent to ono part in three million
parts of blood.
Scientists discover the actions Of
the secretions Of the glands in one
Of two days. They can remove the
glands and find out what happens
when the secretion u missing, or
they can. object the secretion snd
see the effects Of an overdose Of the
substance.

nal glands seems to have the power

1t was true. Reddy Fox was COM
ing straight toward the carrot patch
where Johnny Chuck. Jerry Musk
rat and Mrs. Jerry were feasting on
carrots. What to do? That was the
question in the mines of all three.
Johnny Chuck was not so much
afraid as Jerry Muskrat and Mrs.
Muskrat. You see. Johnny Is very
good fighter and he knew this. He
is big and strong. Once he would
have been a very badly scared
Chuck, but now he wasn't much
scared.
But with Jerry and Mrs. Muskrat
it was a very different matter. Red
" Fox was quite capable Of killing
either of them and they knew IT.
Mrs, Muskrat moved over to beside
Jerry and Johnny Chuck moved over
beside the two. Then the three
faced Reddy Fox.
Now Reddy hadn't seen any one
but Johnny Chuck until he was al

Johnny Chuck said nothing and

"SENSATION SEEKERS"
 AT PALACE SUNDAY

A new dramatic team has sprung up on the Universal lot at Univer- sal City, Cal. It consists of Lois Weber, director, and Billie Dove star, whose second joint effort ''The Sensation Seekers,' will open at the Palace at the matinee Sun- day.
 Miss Dove, who has been in pic. lures for several years, has played in some of Hollywood's finest pic lures but never, until she worked for Miss Weber, did she reach the ultimate dramatic heights of screeT perfection.
 First in "The Marriage Clause she showed that she was one oi the leading actresses of the screer giving a portrayal that startled the industry, then in "The Sensation Seekers" she has duplicated this fine work by another perfect char acterization, this time of moderr young woman demanding freedom of thought and action.
 Huntley Gordon is co-starret with Miss Dove in "The Sensation Seekers" which has a supporting cast including Raymond Bloomer Peggy Montgomery, Phillips Smal ley. Edith Yorke, Clarence Thomp son and Nora Cecil.

After being open. for three and ene-half months, the season on ducks and geese and other birds covered by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, will close at sundown today. Birds. legally killed. can be retained in the hunters po- session for 10 days more, but not after Christmas Day.
 There is no time limit regula- tion affecting the possession of venison and moose meat. Legally killed animals of these varieties may be retained without liability to confiscation or prosecution, ii was announced by F. M. God dard, Acting Executive Officer of the Alaska Game Commission.
 Reports received from m any hunting areas, MT Goddard said indicate there was an increase in migratory birds this year. Ducks Of almost all varieties, geese and smaller waterfowl were apparently more plentiful than last season which, in turn, showed an increase over the previous year.
 Generally, the sportsmen in the field were serupulous in their ob. servance of the game laws and regulations. There were few, if any reported violations of bag limits and other infractions of the Bird Treaty Act.

BUREAU IS IN FAVOR OF LAW
 BEING CHANGED
Commissioner Wires Fav. ors Liberaliz;ng 48-Hour
 Requirement of Law

The II. s. Bureau of Fisheries is not opposed to amending the 4S-hour provision of the Fisheries Act of 1906, according to a tele- gram received today by the Cham Der of Commerce, which was made public by Secretary Frank A. Boyle. The Chamber yesterday telegraphed the Bureau urging the need for modification.
 In his reply. Commissioner Hem " O'Malley said: Am favorable to principle of amending the 4S- hour requirement. of the present fisheries law I believe details satisfactory to all can be worked out"
 Under the existing law, 1t is not legal to can or mild cure salmon after they have been 4S-hours or more out of the water. Until last year, although t had been the GUS tom to more or less ignore this requirement., there has been no prosecutions. Last year several cases were started against mild curers and canners which are still pending. The Chamber Of Com merce here and the Ketehikan Chamber have asked that the law be amended to permit canning and mild-curing of fish properly iced even though they have been dead more than AS hours.
