When it is realized that up to 100
years ago the average age at
death was 35 years, it easily is
understood why the care of the
health of the aged has not been
particularly a problem for medical
science.
In modern times when the average
age at death is more than 55 years
and when a considerable number Of
people live to IS and 80 and even up
to 90 years of age, the problem Of
the aged is assuming increasing i'm
portance.
It must be realized, that the man
or woman who is old has diseases
which are different from those Of
the child. Babies are much alike
and it is possible to establish
routine methods of care for their
hygiene.
1t is doubtful that any two elderly
men or women are exactly alike; it
is questionable that any systematic

Editor T1meS-The Indianapolis
Times always has worked for the
best interests of the citizens of this
city. Please do not desert us at
this time. The insult interests are
planning to take over the street
railway system, which means an
other grab at the poor mans money.
I think the city should take over
this transportation system, elimi-
nate the car tracks and add suffi-
Gent BUSES, of the right type, to
handle passengers.
This would go far toward solv-
ing our present traffic problem. by
eliminating the slow moving street
cars which use the middle Of the
street, and usually are followed BY
q line of automobiles.

Age indicators

DR. TODD'S aim was to dis
- cover those organs which would
be serviceable as age indicators
throughout the whole life period.
Comparison of growth patterns
Of different organs convinced US at
last that skeleton and brain best
fulfill the conditions of our search.
But these organ systems already
have been explored with Indifferent
results. Could we succeed where
others had not?
ITO our amaZement we found that
features of development hitherto
overlooked register themselves
strictly on time. Thanks to the
X-ray, we have been able to iden-
tify these developing features in the
skeleton and in the brain case
which registers faithfully the To-
Called growth Of brain within.
Several parts Of the skeleton are
easily available for study in the
living and chief of these is the re-
gion Of the knee joint. Year by
year development of the bones of
this area is registered faithfully
and independently of height or
weight, state Of nourishnaent or con-
dition Of health.
Growth, the gypsy, is caught and
in fair way Of being tanned"
The work begun in DR.. Todd's lab
oratory has been expanded INTO the
five-year program Of the Brush
Foundation, the so-called Brush IN
quiry, which seeks to anaIyze the
growth of children, with a view to
finding the role played by heritage
in that growth.

Honor

XXTHAT crime had the little man
w committed which LED to a
group of police and spectators to
assail him so savagely? According
to the newspaper accounts, he had
called the mayor of New York a
grating Tammany official.
In the circumstances, an excellent
case Of disorderly conduct might
lie against the Communist agitator
He spoke his insulting words in a
crowded room, tense with excite
ment.
Yet it would be hard to Justify
charge Of melting to riot, since
in any riot Nessin and his four
companions, one Of whom was a
woman, we're sure to get the worst
of it.
The mayor Of New York ought to
be protected against public insult OF
This kind. But insulting the mayor
has not and should not be estab-
hshed as major crime.
1t is fortunate that Nessin did not
die under the beating which he re-
ceived, for such an event would put
James J. Walker in a serious pre-
dicament.
1t seems to me that even now the
mayor has been guilty of a grave
offense. Not an OffenSe against the
Communist party or the unfortu-
nate individual who was seriously
injured. but an offense against the
reputation of the city of New York
and it's police force, which is sup
posed to defend the peace.

again and again he tried to lift
himself from the floor, only to be
knocked down repeatedly and sub
jected to an uninterrupted hail Of
punches to his head, face and body.
When the attack finally stopped
due, apparently to the fact that the
police had grown weary of beating
the man, Nessin was taken to city
hall basement and put under ar
rest"

You have striven heroically to
take in the endless panorama of
red and gold hillsides out of the
corner of your eye, or catch glimpses
of some winding creek down yon-
der, but the immediate business of
not going over the bank on any one
of hundred hairpin curves, collid-
ing with a steam roller, or soaring
innumerable workmen out Of their
wits, had made it impossible.
At the end, you discover that you
haven't seen much, and that you
can't remember what you read in
the morning papers. Not only the
revolution in Brazil and the prepa-
rations for GROWING an emperor in
Abyssinia seem far away, but so do
local happenings.
Still, the hungry presses cry for
fodder and editors expect a scribe
to do his stunt, no matter how good
the scenery, how bad the roads, or
how well the public might get along
without it.

Stubborn Coughs
Ended by Recipe,
Mixed at Home

Here is the famous old recipe which
millions of housewives have found to
be the most dependable means of break
ing up a stubborn, lingering cough. 1t
takes but a moment to prepare and
costs little, but it gives real relief even
for those dreaded coughs that follow
severe cold epidemics.
From any druggist, get 21a ounces Of
Pinex, pour it into pint bottle and ELL
the bottle with plain granulated sugar
syrup or strained honey. Thus you make
a full pint of better remedy than you
could buy ready-made for three times
the cost. 1t never spoils and tastes so
good that even children like it.
Not only does this simple mixture
soothe and heal the infamed throat
membranes with surprising ease, but
also it is absorbed into the blood, and
acts directly upon the bronchial tubes,
thus aiding the whole system in throw
ing off the cough. 1t loosens the germ
laden phlegm and eases chest soreness
in way that is really astonishing.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creosote, in
a refined, palatable form. Nothing
known in medicine is more helpful in
cases Of distressing coughs, chest colds,
and bronchial troubles.
Do not accept substitute for Pinex.
It is guaranteed to give prompt relief

NEW CLASS EYE
GIVES MAN JOB

Furnishing a man with a glass
eye so that he might secure a job
which he located with his one
good optic was one of the unusual
services the Washington Chamber
OF Commerce unemployment bu-
reau was called upon to- perform
before it transferred its activities
to the District committee.
The man is an expert salesman
OF particular line of goods, inVes-
tigation disclosed. His false eye,
friend of many months service.
was broken in an accident while
the man was out of work and his
funds low.
PerSisting in his efforts to find
a job he located a vacancy and
his spirits bounded upward. There
was a catch in it, however, as the
empty socket marred an other
wise pleasing Countenance. The
job was open providing he filled
the vacant space with glass eye.
Appeals made to relatives re-
suited in the acquiring Of the
needed cash and the outlook was
most promising until loss or theft
of the money made the eye pur-
chase impossible.
He told his story to the unem-
ployment clerks o. the Chamber
of Commerce. They investigated
and sub5tantiated the unusual
tale. They then proceeded to buy
an eye of proper shape and hue
from a dealer who cut his usual
price in half as a contribution to
the good cause.
The man today is working and
happy. Even the false eye appears
to emit a twinkle in contempla-
ton of the trick which has been
pulled on misfortune, .

supply of flesh-colored, sheer silk stock
