IN the poetry of all peoples life
l. is a journal and man is
traveller. These old images of
speech are like the vases dug up
from the Pyramids, carved with
exquisite care, telling us what
those who went before us found
life to be.
It is a long road on which we
journey together; but there are
inns along the way, kept by
Father Time, in which we may
take lodging for the night, and
rest and refiect-like the inn Of
Years End, where we arrive to-
day, in which there is a merry
company, and much talk of the
meaning of the journey and the
incidents along the road.

The mechanism by which these

extremely complicated one, in
which perhaps various tissues and
organs in the human body may
take part.

THE medical profession also
1 has given special attention to
the effects of certain glandular
changes on the body as whole.
It is found that such glands as
the pituitary or the parathyroid
may not only undersecrete, but
also oversecrete, and that in such
cases it necessary to control the
condition either by giving the ex-
tract of the gland in deficiency or
by removing portions or all glands
surgically when there is excess.

Ship Without Steel
THE Carnegie sailed the

TINE Carnegie sailed the seas
a under auspices of the de-
partment Of terrestrial magnetism
Of the Carnegie Institution Of
Washington. AS has been pointed
out, it was curious that money Of
Andrew Carnegie, made in steel,
should have gone to equip this
ship which had nothing Of steel
upon it.
The chief function of the Car
negie was to study the earth's
magnetism and in particular the
fluctuations of the earth's mag
netic field which resulted in va
riations of the compass.
Ever since the day Of Columbia,
1t had been known that the COM
pass did not behave the same in
all localities. It will be recalled
that the strange behavior of the
compass brought Columbus sail
ors almost to the point of mutiny.
BY the end Of the seventeenth
century, mariners realized that
the compass ought to be supple
mented by a magnetic chart show
ing what allowance to make in
different localities for the "varia-
ton" of the compass.
The first chart Of this sort was
made by Edmund HALEY, better
known as the man after whom
Halley's comet was named. At the
expense of the English govern
ment, HALEY sailed the seas in
ship called the "Paramour Pink"
from 1886 to 1701.
Halley's cruises were thus the
forerunners of those of Ault.
The Carnegie was equipped with
the finest scientific apparatus OBJ
tainable for studying the earth's
magnetism and also the electric
ity of the atmosphere. The ship
was literally a floating obserVa-
tory.

GOALS TRAGIC COST

The tragedy at Moweaqua, Ill, where fifty-four
coal miners lost their lives in explosion on the
day before Christmas, is just one more of those
frightful "1ncidentals" with which modern society
has to pay it's fuel bill.
No matter how many scientific improvements
may be introduced into coal mine, no matter how
carefully the officers and employees of mine may
try to avert the hazards of the pits coal mining
mains, basically dangerous occupation. Here
and there year after year. come these reports of
disaster.
The coal that warns our homes and drives our
machinery is paid for every often in human lives.
That tragic fact is one we never should forget.

Chemists Study Body

This is the fifth of six articles by DR..
Fishbein reviewing the progress Of medt-
cal science in 1882.
CTUDIES on hypersensitivity OF
- the body to certain substances,
for example, the kind of sensitiv-
ity that is associated with hay
fever and asthma, revealed in
1882 that there may be sensitivity
to physical changes, perhaps the
result of chemical changes in the
tissue brought about by action Of
such physical factors, as heat,
cold, ordinary light, ultraviolet,
X-ray or similar factors.
Moreover, the chemists have
been working at the subject with
a view to finding out whether
there is any specific chemical sub
stance which may be the exciting
agent in such attacks.
While their work is yet in an
extremely early stage, it seems
likely that they may determine
some specific chemical change re-
lated to the alIergic attack.

Causes Of Respiratory Infections; Need Moisture in Air
When individuals are exposed to

When individuals are exposed to
drafts from an electric fan, there Is
chilling Of the surface OF the body
and a change in the circulation OF the
membranes of the nose and throct.
Numerous investigators have made
a search for the germ cause OF the
common cold. Unfortunately, no single
organism has yet been absolutely In
eliminated. so that it Is difficult to
take specific preventive measures.
In a review of the ways in which
one may do his best to prevent ire
ouent colds, DR.. Howard lists as items
Of Importance: % Private dwellings
should be heated to 68 or 70 degrees.
and large halls to go or IS degrees
Fahrenheit as a maximum. 20 The

should have q sufficient amount Of
moisture in it. Moisture can be OF
tanned either by devices associated
with the furnace, or by special cleo
trio devices that have been developed
for moistening the air. co The cloth

Gagging History

One measure now pending before
congress which needs to be showed
under is the bill introduced by Rep
resentative Mouser of Ohio, which
would impose a 81 900 fine and year
in Jail on anyone who disseminates
printed matter OBTAINING the men,
ory of a dead person.
The obvious result of this, of course,
would be to emasculate history. What
historian could tell the truth about
the acts Of public men, with such a
threat hanging over his head? What
biographer could do justice to such
figures as Jim Fisk, for instance, or
Daniel Drew? How could such gov
ernmental scandals as those of the
Grant and Harding administrations
be discussed plainly and clearly?
Existing laws are ample to deal with
scurrilous literature. This law would
simply gag the honest historian and
biographer.

The Value of Planes

News that army bombing planes
from March Field, Calf, recently
took to the air to drop supplies of
food and clothing to snowbound Nav
ajo Indians in the Arizona noun
tains brings up two rather interest
ing points for speculation.
First, how long would the numerous
Indian uprisings of the last century
have lasted If the army of those days
had possessed airplanes? One good
scouting plane would have saved
Custer from ambush along the Little
Big Horn, for example; one squadron
of bombers would have routed the
strongest Indian force ever put to-
gether.
In the second place, one is forced
to admit that the armys relations
with the Indian tribesmen has
changed greatly Of late. The bomb
ing airplanes seek out the Indians
to drop necessities, not bombs! Truly,
the situation is not what it used to
be!

The Ohio and Texas Snags

Roosevelt managers are disturbed
over developments in Ohio and Texas
The Roosevelt tactics have been to at
tempt to put over the nomination on
an early ballot. Up until just few
weeks ago 1t was expected that Roose-
welt would get the Texas delegation
at the outset and the Ohio delega-
ton after one or two complimentary
votes for Governor White.
Then the Ohio Democrats threw a
monkey into the plans when
they got together and decided that
the delegation should be instructed for
Governor White for four ballots and
then. If no nomination had resulted,
to swing to another Ohioan." This
another Ohioan" is generally accept
ed as being Newton D. Baker.
And now it becomes certain that
Mr.. Roosevelt will not get the Texas
delegation In the early balloting.
When Mr.. Hearst of the Hearst news
papers first proposed Speaker Garner
for the nomination some weeks ago,
Texas Democrats were preparing for
the organization OF Roosevelt for
President clubs. On the instant, the
movement stopped. It is reported from
Dallas as an almost one hundred per
cent bulletproof prediction that the
states forty-six delegates will be vot-
ing for John Nance Garner SO long
as there is a possible chance of his
capturing the prize.

decide to swing later to another, il
Is held that the swing would likely
be to Roosevelt, but Oh.os fifty-tvc

ballot calculations. Neither doe

of our present tariff law. It Is
time for us to sit down with 9TH
er nations and say to them this
tariff fence business, on our part
and yours. Is preventing world
trade. Let us see If we can work
out reciprocal methods by which
we can start the actual inter-
change of goods. We do not ask
you to buy our goods for cash be-
cause we know you have not got
the cash, but we do suggest that
it would be good for us and for
you If we could send to you each
year a large volume of American
products in exchange for your
products. But we do recog-
nize the fact that we can probab-
ly use many OF your articles and
at the same time we can start
our own wheels Of industry going
in manufacturing the things you
need and want-all with ade-
quate safeguards for the Ameri-
can standards Of labor.
II have good reason to believe
that many nations who, like us,
are suffering from stoppage of
industry, will meet us half way
and put all the cards on the table
for the purpose Of breaking an
actual deadlock which has para
lyzed world trade and thrown mil
lions here and abroad out of use
full work.
Let me at the same time make
1t clear that a trade conference
with the other nations of the
world does not and should not, by
any stretch Of the imagination,
involve the United States in any
participation in political contro-
versies in Europe or elsewhere.
Nor does it involve the renewal in
any way of the problem of II

It IS extremely difficult to prove
any facts concerning the building OF
resistance against colds because OF
the tremendous incidence Of the con-
dition and because the factors involv-
ed in the lives of all civilized human
beings are so numerous.
DR.. Campbell B. Howard, who mas
recently surveyed the subject, fees
that the common impression that
chilling, dampness and fatigue are
predisposing factors to colds is sup.
ported by considerable amount OF
good scientific evidence. The manner
in which chilling and dampness IN
duces q cold is through the distur-
bance of the heat regulating mechan-
ism brought about by sudden evapora .
ton of moisture from the surface OF
the body. This causes a strain on
the heat producing mechanism to keep
the temperature up to normal.
