NEW YORK, Dec. with the
reduction Of the tuberculosis death
rate by so per cent in the last
twenty-five years, pneumonia stands
out today as the chief death dealing
agent among infectious diseases
Throughout the United States regis
tration area today, it generally is
true that the toll taken by pneu-
monia is second only to that of
heart disease among all causes of
death, according to R. H. Hutchinson,
widely known biochemist. In New
York state the number Of deaths
among each 100000 persons caused
annually by pneumonia still is near
ITO, while that attributed to tuber-
culosis is now below seventy-fiYe.
However. D. definite hope that sci
ence viii soon make marked prog
ress in the conquest of this last
great problem among infectious dis
eases is seen by Mr.. Hutchinson. writ
ing in the current issue of the
American Druggist. It is based on
the success of the two serum5
evolved and tested within the last
ten years by DR.. Frank NJ. HuntOOn
and by DR.. FELTON, of Harvard medi-
cal school.
Early Treatment
IF treatment is made within the
first twenty-four or fOrty-eight
hours of the disease with either Of
these seruns, the chance for sur
vival is more than so per cent bet
ter than it was ten years ago, he
says.
The peculiar nature of pneumO-
f1ia, little understood by the layman,
preoludes, however, any hope that
O. single serum will solve the prob
lem. Science has found that the
germs of the disease are often pres
ent in the mouth of normal indi-
vidual as a harmless part of the
bacterial form, and the accepted
theory is that in 2. period of lowered
resistance they penetrate the mem
branes of the mouth and throat
and thence find their way through
the blood stream to the lungs.
Serum Partially Effective
But the problem Of treatment is
complicated by the fact that the
pneunococci are of eleven distinct
kinds. Type / is responsible for 80
per cent of pneumonia cases, Type
II for 81 per cent, Type III for IL
per cent. The remaining "a per cent
of cases are attributed to eight diff
ferent types of germs deSignted as
Group ".
The two most effective serums so
far evolved have succeeded in reduc-
ing the death rate from the Type 1
pneumococci by more than so per
cent when injection is early in the
course of the disease, and have also

proved effective to degree against
Type III. No effective serum for
Type III and Group w cases has
so far been found. but the proved
success of the FELTON, and Huntoon
serums is basis for a hope of early
solution of the problem.
The necessity for early treatment
is stressed by TIE American Drug
gist writer. "The initial chill, the
pain in the side or in the chest,
the rapid rise of temperature, the
cough, often with blood-stained
sputum, are signs any one can rec
ognize easily. The value of the pres
ent specific treatment lies largely
in its early application"

Alaska May Be Dubbed
Original Ellis Island

It is now evident that America was
originally peopled by immigrants from
Asia and it is probable that Alaska
was the first scene of human history
on this continent. Edward M. Weyer
described at New Haven the relics
yielded by prehistoric villages discov-
cred during his explorations in Alaska.
'The American continents are younger
with regard to human occupation than
the Eastern hemisphere" according to
Weyer. "The very first immigrants to
them, the forerunners of the American
Indians, doubtless came from Asia.
Thus Alaska, which lies much closer
to Asia than any other part of Amer
lea, probably was the gateway through
which passed these early Asiatic immi-
grants.
"The northwestern corner of North
America, therefore, can be regarded
as the first scene Of human history in
America. No aborigines Of Arctic
America, so far as is known, ever used
a written language. Consequently the
mute relics of material culture are the
only source of historical information
here. Nevertheless the buried prehis-
toric villages Of Alaska yield secrets
to the archeologist. "-Pathfnde Mag

POPULATION IN DELAWARE
IL e. -
SHOWS INCREASE J..

According to the estimates of the
State Board Of Health, the population
in Delaware increased from 223, OO3 in
1920 to 241,615 in 1928, a period of eight
years. The estimates indicate an in
crease in population in Wilmington and
rural New Castle County but de-
crease in Kent and Sussex Counties.
The report estimates an increase
in population in Wilmington during the
period. specified of IS per cent, rural
New Castle county an increace of per
cent, Kent county decrease Of per
cent and Sussex decrease of S per
cent. Despite the estimated decrease
in the two lower counties the esti-
mated increase in New Castle County
including Wilmington, is sufficient to
more than offset that and provide
a substantial estimated increase of
Is, 613 for the entire'State.
The estimates given for the four
constitutional districts Of the State for
1928 compared with the actual popu-
lation as shown by the 1920 census

Famous Carnac Stones
Puzzles to Scientists

The Stones of Carnac in Brittany
are one of the wonders of the age.
Nobody knows when they were erect
ed, or why. Nowhere throughout
Europe can there be seen such per-
picking evidence Of an early race
combining the most primitive sim
plicity with indications of profound
knowledge. Vast alignments of huge
stones attract the eye, headed or
terminated by circles or dolmens
(table stones commonly called crom-
lechs) extending at intervals as far
as seven miles to Locmariaquer and
bullying out in all directions to Err
devon, st. Barbe, Kermario, Kerlescan
and the Quiberon. Intersected among
these are tumuli, menhirs, tolmen
(holed stones) and engraved stones.
To the casual visitor they are rem
nants of stone worship, buryingt
places or records of conquered foes
and victories past. Their strange
markings are exactly similar to the
thumb marks of the human hand, but
done on large scale and with WON
derful accuracy. The height of the
Egyptian columns and obelisks is al
most exactly the same. What relation
has Carnac with Egypt?

Age Not Determined by

must confess that / have arrived
at the time of life when l do not like
to be asked how old l am. What in
the dickens do the number of years
matter?
Many Of us old-stagers are really
as young as the lads in the air force.
At least. that's the way we feel.
Youth is not time of life. 1t is
a state of mind. 1t is determined by
how you think and how you feel.
Recently, I met a young man Of
twenty-eight who was full of fears.
His brain had become static. He
seemed to be vaccinated against new
ideas. I am twice his age. but con-
tend that am younger than he is.

Fijians Convinced of
Devil in Automobile

Although the automobile is steadily
gaining in popularity in the Fiji Islands
1t encountered great fear and superstf-
ton on the part of the natives when
first introduced. The first self-pro-
PEELED vehicle was used in the colony
In 1905 by an American, who was tour
ing tn, islands. This car was viewed
with awe by the inhabitants, being
considered the contraption of mad
man, and conservative residents sug-
gested that the owner be deported as
dangerous character.
The second car made its appearance
in 1907. destined for the wife of the
mayor of Suva. A liveried chauffeur
was provided, and it is not known
which created the greater stir, the
vehicle or it's driver. One day the
owner found under the machine sew
era bushmen, poking about and ex-
plOring the mysteries. Explanations
revealed that the Fijians had held a
conference about the new vehicle that
lacked visible means of locomotion and
mad concluded that the affair was
nothing less than devil wagon; there
fore, partly out of kindness to the
owner and partly to prevent the es-
cape of the devil into the bush and
into the villages, the ''devil doctors"
constituted themselves a committee to
study this weird thing and to exc
terminate it's concealed monster.

DOWNEY & BABCOCK IN NED IF SHORT
 TRAIL AND BRIDGE

Now that Downey & Babcock nave made a real gold mine of their ground down in Nuka Bay and are producing gold bricks, they feel as if they might Sug- gest to the Alaska Road Commis- sion, that consideration be giv- en their needs in the matter of a mlle-long trail and short bridge, leading from the beach to their property.
 For four years now Downey & Babcock have put unceasing -personal-into the devel- opment of their wonderfully rich quartz mine and, until they pur- chased "old dobbin' a couple of years ago, perforce packed every thing up on their backs. When the horse was taken down this labor was relieved to a large ex- tent but even so it is difficult, at the best, to continue on indefi- nitely under the present handicap.
 And to the end that an inex- pensive trail and a rough bridge be put in for them, they ask the support of local people. In all likelihood, the Seward Cham Der of Commerce will take the initiative in the matter.
 MT. Babcock estimated the trail and bridge both could be put in for a sum approximating $1,5OO He also figures that a span about 30 feet long vii answer the pur- pose as far as the bridge is con- cerned: there is ample material on the spot for the project.
 The trail, as has been said, would be mile long and with the exception of one small grade which is around 300 feet in length the entige trail would be almost level.

WHY NOT PRACICE TT AT HOME?

Richard Washbum Child, writing the subject of contrasting psychologists of Europe and the Onteo States makes these observations:
 "The first (policy) is one which distinguishes from all the older civilizations, for 1t IS that ot socal and economic development accompanied by the least possible political of governmental initiative, mterfer- ence or paternasm The great enterprises of most other ture and industry-have required governmental sover eign paternaism. For the first time in history the United States in large way has proved that the great and greater unity and peace and equity are developed by private enterprise. and also, y that bureaucracy and nefficiency and indeed con- flct itself appears to be inherent in political govern ment of the affairs of men,"
 And yet any effort to live up to Mr. Childs clear out analysis of contrasting psychologists in it's appca tion to Amercan dependency, like Alaska, meets with adamant objections in Washington
 It will be recalled that President Hoover gave ex- presson to the thought, when he arragned bur- eaucracy differing only in taking direct cut rather than employing the diplomatic language to which the former ambassador is accustomed.
