OF
Nostrums O We
Radio Is Played
Health Bulletin Says Advertising
Is Dirty And INSCRIPTIONS

The dirtiest and most unscru-
pulous nostrum advertising in the
world today is being carried right
into the homes of the American
people through the medium of the
radlo,' and article in the current
issue of The Health Bulletin, pub
llshed by the N. c. State Board of
Health, states.
'lt is the most subtle and dan
gerous advertising it is possible to
permit" the item continues. Every
hour through the day and night,
until all of the radio stations sign
off, intelligent people are shocked
to hear the beautiful resonant
voice of an announcer come in over
the radio proclaiming the so-called
virtues of some nostrum.
"The worst of the nostrum ad-
vertising has been excluded from
the reputable newspapers and pc
riodicals of the country. This ac-
ton followed a long period of edu-
cational work on the part of pub
lie health officers and the medical
profession, who were greatly aided
by some forward looking newspa-
per men like Samuel Hopkins
Adams. The radio, however, has
opened an entirely new field, one
that is a thousand times more dan
gerous than the newspapers
The writer relates that one even
ing he was shocked to hear a wo-
man screech over the radio that she
was dying. 1t developed she had a
headache. A companion suggested
a certain medicine at a drug store.
and almost before she had time to
swallow it, she was cured, feeling
fine and lauding the nostrum, even
If it is known that it takes any
medicine sometime to ure a head
ache.
"And yet," the article continues,
such loose statements and such
advertising is common through the
medium of the radio all throughout
the country.
1.-The suggestion here is that
every intelligent layman that be-
.lieves in truth in advertising make
a note of all such impossible state
ments when coming in over the.
radio and sit down and spend a.
mute or two in writing a letter to.
the station through which the mes
sage comes. protesting any such
advertising"

Barren Corn Has
High Feed Value

Barren corn stalks should be re-
moved from the fields while still
green to obtain the greatest posi-
bic feed value.
E. C. Blair, extension agronomis,
at State College, says that, "Ir
1888 as in every dry year, many
North Carolina corn fields will
make a very low yield, and such
fields always contain a high per.
centage Of barren stalks.
elm order to get the greatest pos
sible amount of feed value, the
barren stalks should be cut from
the field while still green. They
may be either fed green, or curec
in the shock.
when cut at this stage, tht
corn stalks and leaves will cure
into a bright green roughage Of
higher feeding value and greater
p%alatability than the mature stoven
will be later on"
He opinted out that an analysis
shows that the green cured stalk.
contain three per cent digestable
protein against two per cent for
ordinary corn slower, and the per-
centage of carbohydrates and fat.
is also higher.
Another advantage in taking
out barren stalks at this time i.
that fruitful stalks will not have
to compete with barren corn 70,
moisture during the remainder Of
the growing season. he said.

Governor Draws Fire
From Joke On Names

Richmond, Va.-What Governor
Pollard didn't know about girls
named California woodland does
fill a special correspondence file.
His trouble started during last
years Governors conference in
Virginia. Governor Pollard, in the
company of Governor Rolph of
California, and Governor Case of
Rhode Island, made a speech for the
talkies.
What he said went something
like this:
Virginia is a grand old State.
She is the mother of States, and
the mother of presidents. Mothers
name their daughters Virginia.
But you never heard of a mother
naming her daughter Rhode Island
or California"
In the following months he heard
of plenty of mothers who named
their daughters California. He
has heard from the daughters them
selves. He has heard from them in
such a great volume that a special
correspondence file has been open
ed; in such great volume that he
ran out of all of the polite Vir-
ginia gentleman apologies he ever
heard of; in such great volume he
finally resorted to a form letter of
apology.

,"It doesn't matter. I'll see

Cavanaugh answered instantly.
She looked at him uncompre-

generous heart this seemed a
very silly business. After all,
her background was European
and the loneliness of Ameri-
can men about money was a
mystery.
Money to Leni Luneska was,
in fact, a mystery. One either
had it, or one didn't. One lived
in a palace-or starved. She
was familiar with both extremes.
The motion pictures in the
last year had been a golden
flood of money. The cash
flowed in and it flowed out.

Being a woman she already

There was a sensation of con-

her house, her clothes, her af-

But Cavanaugh knew the lack
OF money was not a trifle to
be brushed aside. He was a
gambler, accustomed to the
crest Of the wave and, occa-
Sionally, the trough as well.
With an ordinary woman the
lack would have been not quite
so important. It was different
to take the responsibility for
Leni Luneska-to drag her out
of the most lucrative career a
woman can know and take her
money besides.
