THE FOOLISH QUARREL

CREED doesn't pay. 1t never
~ does. And yet some people
never seem to learn this. Just take
the case of Happy Jack Squirrel
and his cousin. Chatterer the Red
Squirrel. In the Green Forest were
ever so many hickory trees and
there were more nuts than Happy
Jack and Chatterer could eat I'm
lifetime. But both were so greedy
that they were quarrelIng over the
nuts which the Merry Little Breezes
had shaken down from the top of
tall chestnut tree.
Happy Jack claimed all those
brown nuts were his because he had
happened to be right under that par
ticular tree when the Merry Little
Breezes shook them down. Chatter
er had been near enough TO hear
them as they ratified down, and had
come running over TO get share.
At once Happy Jack had tried to
drive him away. Chatterer had re-
fused TO 60 In fact, at the sight
Of all those nuts on the ground

he would have all of them. You see.
he was quite as greedy as Happy
Jack. Those brown nuts didn't
really belong 10 either of them, and
wouldn't until they had been picked
up and hidden away. But Happy
Jack and Chatterer didn't stop to
think of this. Each was so greedy
that he wasn't willing to let the
other have a single one.
Thief" shouted Happy Jack.
"RObber !" cried Chatterer.
"No such thingl They're all mine
because | found them first" sput-
tered Happy Jack.
"Pig, pig. pigr' shouted Chatter
er. thrusting out his tongue at
Happy Jack.
Do you wonder that the Merry
Little Breezes. who had thought to
help Happy Jack and Chatterer,
looked down In dismay and stopped
shaking down the brown nuts? Do
you wonder that Sammy Jay, hear
ing those sharp angry voices, came
stealing silently up TO see what such
a dreadful quarrel was about? You
can depend on it that Sammy will
be somewhere about when anything
like that is going on.

Drawn and Brains

That part Of the general public
which is interested In college foot
ball is pretty we'll used to the sight
Of the star athlete who manages to
complete his college course only by
dint of the most terrific mental
struggle. The burly fullback who
takes snap courses, has tutor to
prepare him for exams and even then
gets passing marks only because the
professors are lenient-he Is q COM
mon and a rather uninspiring figure
on the campus.
But the football star isn't always
in that class. It Is instructive, for
example, to notice the names Of the
five cadets who finished their courses
at West Point recently at the head
of the list in academic work. The
top man of all was none other than
Kenneth Fields, famous as football
halfback. Two Of the other four
were also wcll-known athletes.
And the curriculum at West Point
makes the average college course
look soft by comparison.

A Record Achievement

One of the brightest achievements
of the U. S. war department seems
to have been recorded in connection
with the enrolment and mobilization
Of the Civilian Conservation Corps
this spring.
Robert Fechner, director Of the
emergency conservation work, re-
veals that the program laid down by
President Roosevelt has been carried
out to the letter. More than 274,O00
young men have been enrolled in
the forestry corps, and upwards of
$1,000 of them are now in the corps
1900 work camps.
Thus in three months more men
have been enlisted and put in camps
than was the case in the first three
months Of American participation in
the World war.
Apparently a pretty difficult and
complicated job has been done with
a good deal of efficiency and prompt
ness.

CHRONIC PROGRESSIVE ARTH-
RTTIS

Three or four years ago French
physicians discovered that extraor-
binary improvement followed injec-
lions of parathyroid extract in cases
Of chronic deforming, disabling arth-
ritis. The French physicians called
it progressive chronic deforming rheu-
matism-but then, they keep up many
quaint customs in the old country.

Patients experience a feeling of we'll
being after the first few injections,
and presently find they have increas-
ed facility of movement, greater flexi-
bility of the affected joints. This eff
feet appears half an hour after dose
and lasts for many hours.
The effect of the parathyroid in
jections in chronic disabling arth-
ritis is comparable with the effect Of
insulin injections in diabetes. The
remedy is effective only so long as
each dose acts-but the patient profits
by the benefit gained while the dose
is acting. The patients general me-
tabolism is improved.
You know, if you take an 1odin Ra-

just as every sufferer from diabetes
should have the benefit of insulin
treatment, 50 every victim of chronic
disabling arthritis should have at least
the careful consideration of the newer
ideas or principles Of treatment by
his physician.
There is another new idea which
has brought real benefit in many
cases of chronic disabling arthritis.
That Is insulin treatment. English
physicians have found that such pa
tents experience gratifying relief
when given insulin long enough to
bring their weight up to or near the
normal. No miraculous results should
be expected. but just gradual i'm
