Blood TRANSMISSION Valuable Process

son into the vein Of another, it is
possible to withdraw the blod in a
syringe and inject in that manner;
also to inject the blood under the
skin or into the muscles.
Nowadays transfusions are used
in cases of severe hemorrhages,
when the person actually needs
more blood; in cases of severe ane-
mia, when the blood has been
weakened by the absence Of certain
constituents, but chiefly in what are
known as the critical periods Of
disease.
These have to do with severe re-
actions after surgical operation, Sc
we're infections, shock, poisoning
and similar conditions.
One of the modern uses Of blood
TRANSMISSION involves the injection
of blood previous to operation in
weak or elderly patients in order to
have them in good condition dur
ing the operation.

For a National Anthem

national anthem which would be better than the
"Star- Spangled Banner has our best wishes, but
the odds are about 5000 to l that, after she gets
her prize song, the country won't adopt it.
National anthems aren't written in cold blood, so
to speak When they really any good they spring
up in times of trouble They have to have baptism
in flre-such a baptism the French hymn, THE
Marseillase, received, for instance. They have to
have profoundly touching and moving associations
interviewer in them-as Dixie" had in the South.
They just naturally aren't produced In prize contests
Our present national song could be improved upon.
But after all, it has been hallowed by good many
years of USE If it is ever replaced by one, the
new one will spring into being during some great
national crisis. 1t won't be written by someone
trying to earn an easy $4,000.

Whv Not Exhibit Him.

Indiana is proud of its achievements as dis
played at the State Fair.
It has the finest of cattle, the most lucious
of fruits, the sleekest horses, the most golden
Of grains.
From its factories come machines which re-
ieve labor Of its drudgery and give to leisure
hours an added thrill
Its artists and its musicians, its professional
men and its scientists, it's business men and
it's farmer have every reason to feel more than
pride.
But at the great annual State Fair owned by
the people as whole, it should be fitting that
the people exhibit their common achievements
as we'll as the enterprises of the Individual.
The people have a Governor. He is the
Governor of all the people.
And for the last time, let it be hoped they
have Governor with peculiar distinction.
They have the only Governor Of any State
who at any time successfully pleaded the
statute Of limitations against charge of at
tempting to bribe former holder of the Office.
Why not exhibit the Governor and remind
ourselves that the same forces which produced
him are trying to defeat Frank Daley for the
governorship?

wit, this campaign illustrates
the difference between men who
talk and men who study.
The former furnish us about the
same kind of argument that our
grandfathers heard. The latter give
us the radio.
It is doubtful whether Smith and
Hoover represent much improve
mcnt over Hamilton and Jefferson
so far as the art of discussion goes,
but there is no doubt that the Ma
tional Broadcasting Company repre-
sents a great improvement over the
Pony Express.
We look to CAB for political prog
ress, which is the chief reason why
we have so little. In other fields we
look to invention, experiment and
the discovery of principles.
The old fetish that If men argue
long enough they will learn some
thing still dominates our theory OF
justice and government. Time was
when it dominated our attitude to-
ward science, when chemists, phi
losophers and doctors spent most of
their time hurting words at each
other.
The world did not make much
Roadway in science until it gave up
talk and devoted itself to study.
You do not hear men like Edison,
Marconi and John Coolidge rowing
each other on the public platform.
They have found a better way.

follows:
Assume that you hold spades 10,

the spade king and is followed by
the lead of the spade ace. You
want the suit continued so that you
may trump the third round of
spades. You inform your partner
of this desire by playing the spade
10 on the first round and the spade
3 on the second round.
The encouraging discard is an
other signal which will be inter-
preted easily. Assume that the
declaration is no trump. West
holds diamonds A K @ x x. He
plays that suit until his partners
diamonds are exhausted. He wants
his partner to signal what new suit
he should open. East should dis
card Z or higher Of any suit he
wants led.
Discarding from weakness is also
an approved method of signalling.
Let us assume that in this instance
east cannot afford to weaken his
strong suit by discarding from it.
He therefore discards a or lower
if possible from another suit. West
learns from this discouraging dis
card that east does not want to
have that particular suit led. This
signal assists west in drawing an
inference as to casts probable
strong suit.

ONE Of the most interesting pro-
~ cedures Of modern medicine
is the transfer of blood from one
person to another, such as is used
nowadays in many serious condi-
tons.
The first attempt to transfer
blood from one to another goes
back centuries. In the modern
method the blood is usually re-
moved from the vein of one person
and injected into the vein of the
arm Of the person who needs the
blood.
1t is impossible to inject with
advantage the blood Of an animal
into man, because there are differ
ences which make the results Sc
