IN PUBLIC HEALTH
News Letter Prepared for Gazette
Readers Under Supervision of
Minnesota State Medical Associa-
ton.

Probably no disease is attracting
more attention at the present time
than cancer. 1t is the dreaded sword
of Damocles hanging over the heads
of every one of US. The man who
discover the cure will be honored for
ages to come.
Many thousands Of "fake" or
"quack" cancer cures are on record
and there are more than one thousand
unsuccessful cures based upon sci
entific Investigations that have been
reported. Many millions Of dollars
are being spent annually by Research
Laboratories in the study of cancer,
with the hope of eventually finding
a cure.
California has nothing on Mime
sofa in it's recent report of a social
ed scientific cure. For several years
a scientific investigation right here
in Minnesota with an extract from
another "endocrine gland than that
used in California has shown the
same results as that reported so.
widely in the newspapers.
An editorial in a late number of
the Journal of the American Medical
Association says:
Every experiment is of interest in
this field in which knowledge is re-
latively slight. So great, however, is
the demand of the public for some
certain remedy that every step in the
study of cancer is likely to lead to ex-
sggerated statements in the press
concerning the possibilities of cure
and to the deceiving Of thousands of
incurable sufferers who crave relief
from their pain. Medical investiga-
tors have been forced to surround
their laboratories with all the guards
and paraphermalia formerly associa-
ted with the Secret Service. Such an
attitude on the part of the public
does nothing to hasten progress and
may do much to impede research in
a field in which it is badly needed"
Claims of the Investigators are re-
vealed in the newspaper reports have
been exaggerated. 1t is possible that
from the Investigations now being
carried on in Minnesota and Califor-
MIA that some advance in the treat
ment of cancer may be made and it
is probable that definite advance in
our knowledge of the disease may re-
suit.
Unless the cancer is discovered
early, successful treatment is not
possible. At the present time sur,yi
cal removal of the growth and treat
ment with X-ray and radium are the
only means at our disposal to cure
cancer. For this it is necessary to
see your physician.

Life Large and Small

q ONE interesting reflections the size of living
\ things made by the noted scientist, Julian
S. Huxley, in a recent article Many of the facts
which he relates not only interesting but surpris-
ing.
When speak of living things, in the broad
sense must include the vegetable kingdom, so the
largest living things are to be found among the big
trees of California These incidentally also the
oldest, with age of around 5000 years.
These trees, weighing nearly 900 tons, are
massive indeed when compared with the largest ami
NAL the whale, whose weight seldom reaches more
than 100 tons. Yet large elephant could maneuver
comfortably inside whales skin.
Most wonderful is what we find among the small
orders of life. We flea, though with diff
fculty catch him, yet $4,000 would weigh scarcely one
ounce.
Some of the insects which are hardly visible to
the naked eye are fitted out with compound eyes, a
nice nervous system, three pairs of jaws and three
pairs of legs, vened wings and striped muscles" Tiny
birds weighing only ten grams about much as
ten large ants, fly thousands of miles during their
mgrations. And ants, by the way, the strongest
living things in proportion to their size.
Man is about halfway in the scale between large
and small mammals, and when grown he contains
about hundred million million cells. He requires all
his brain well his strength to cope with the
great animals side and the insects the other
And then there the microbes to worry about.

A Stray Pups Friend

TVIHAT does a stray pup amount to, anyway?
M What does it matter if helpless animal is
abused and tortured to make sport for gang
of thoughtless boys? Who would care?
We have read pleasing story of small boy
who cared, and thereby made friend who did not
forget.
Some years ago kindly named Jacob Sier,
while walking along the Mississippi river bank near
st. Louis, upon group of boys who were
ing themselves by throwing stray pup into the river
time after time in spite of the protests of small
companion. Finally the pups defender engaged the
others in stic combat to save the wretched animal
from ber,y drowned.
Just then Mr. Siler approached and commended
the plucky lad whose Otto Schmidt. AS
a result lifelong friendship between the two began
Some time ago Sler died and left $500 to the boy
man, whose humane instincts and courage had
saved the poor pup and won the admiration of
casual witness of his act
Those who befriend unfortunate animals do not
always receive material rewards such as came to
Otto Schmidt but they may have the reward of an
approving conscience, which should be decompense
enough.

customers who have not ordered it. For many
it has been the practice of various

for the stuff rather than go to the trouble of
turning it.
This practice is the of treat annoyance to
persons whose names happen to get the mailing

is no legal obligation to pay for return the goods

While, ordinarily, do not favor the passing of

Paramount Problems

w yHAI are the most important problems before
M the American people today?
In order to get to this question
the National Economic League, composed of leaders
in all walks of life and holding all shades of political
religious and economic opinion recently made poll
of its national council.
Several thousand preferential ballots were return
ed, with administration of justice leading in import
ance with 2,209 voes prohibition being second with
zoos.
Crime farm relief taxation and various subjects
havlr to do with foreign relations stood high in the
list, welfare and the tariff mentioned by con-
siderable number.
Among the subjects submitted which were evid-
emily considered of comparatively little Importance by
the League council public utilities national de-
fense railroads, lobbying and radio
AS understood by those who voted adminstra-
ton of justice refers to the procedure of courts
than related subjects such and law enforcement
The vote protest against the cumbersome an
tiquated and tedious methods of bringing a case to
conclusion.
Again, the Importance attached to prohibition was
not an indication of whether those voting were wet
or dry, but merely their expression that something
should be done about it-stricter enforcement modi-
fcation or repeal.
But whatever its real relative Importance NAV be-
it can hardly be denied that prohibition is the most
discussed national problem just now 1t is likewise
giving good many politicians uneasy moments.
