 Thus one by one some of the vital endrocine functions are iso- lated and studied by Wayne J. At well, ph. D.. professor of anatomy.
 The gland which he transplan.s $ about the size of a pin head. When removed from the head and grafted into the tadpole's tail the tadpole cannot change into a frog. that is, cannot metamorphose.
 But if the pituitary is trans planted to a position near the tad poles inner ear, he metamorphoses into frog.
 He also turns silvery color, in- stead of the usual dark green. This complexion change is traced to atrophy of one of the sections of the transplanted pituitary, the in- termediate lobe.
 Little is known yet of this lobe, but it's effect on frog colorings have been verified. His color turns dark again if he is given extracts of this lobe taken from other anil mals. When the extract is discon- tinued, he become silvery once more.

 BUFFALO, N. Y, Dec. A. Frogs which are siig.ltiy synthetic are grown at the University of Buffalo.
 They are altered in early life, in the tadpole stage. by having their plIuitay glands transplanted by an operation to another part of their bodies from the normal location at the base of the brain.
 Changes result in the frog, some striking and visible, others wholly internal, but all scientifically im- portant and of potential value to man.
 For the pituitary is one of the endrocine glands, and moreover is beginning to show itself as the master gland of the endrocine sys- tenn.
 It heads up the series of ductless glands which are intimately associ- ated with growth, personal appear ance. disease, insanity, sexual de- velopment and indirectly probably with the emotions.
 But the pituitary is difficult to study, for its system of control is complex. Transplanting cuts off some of the glands functions so
