THE MICROBES IN DUST

Here is 52-page pamphlet entitled
How to Conserve Public Health" It
is a report of an address of men,
Der of the U. S. senate who Is q physt-
clan, interspersed with bright COM
ments by another medical member OF
the senate and some quaint tnterpola-
tons by still a third physician senator.
Iquote from the pamphlet:
mot only are there microbes OF
ill omen but there axe microbes OF
good omen. There are microbes OF
i'll omen. such as the subercular
bacilli. which we inhale daily upon
the streets. in the homes, in public
institutions, and were 1t not for the
resistance we have built up In our
bodies we would all develop tuber-
culosis and sooner or later sue
cumb to the disease
All of which Is absurd, old-fogy pes
simistic fancy. Any "microbe" that
causes disease is of ill omen," sup
pose. But no one knows Of microbe,
germ. bacterium or micro-organizm OF
good omen, unless one chooses to
regard anything that does one no par
ticular harm in that light.
The old fossil who got up the
pamphlet betrays his lack Of knowl-
edge of medicine when he expresses
the morbid fancy that we inhale
"tubucular" bacilli. He might take
an evening off some time and brush
up on elementary English. too. He will
learn that they are called tubercle
bacilli. that tuberculous IS the adjec-
tive referring to the disease tuber-
culosis, and tubucular does not neces-
sarily refer to that disease.
There Is no actual evidence that we
inhale tubercle bacilli as this erudite
senator would have us imagine. That
is ancient almanac lore.
Nor Is there any reason to assume
that we are infected with tuberculosis
via germ-laden dust which we inhale.
To the best Of our present knowl-
edge infection with tuberculosis oc-
ours usually thru prolonged intimate
personal contact with CARELESS or
IGNORANT individual who has the
disease in active stage, and perhaps
In a few instances thru the drinking
Of raw milk from tuberculous cows.
It is a curious coincidence that one
Of the eminent senators featured in
the pamphlet has permitted the use
of his name in the promotion Of the

aided as authority for the morbid no.
ton that household dust is q source OF
much illness. This particular gadget
Of course is no more sanitary than
any other similar device, but probably
a lot Of credulous housewives have
taken the pamphlet seriously.
Dust in ones eyes, ears, nose or
mouth is not pleasant, but I assure
you there is no need to worry about
microbes or germs that float In the
air or fly about on dust.

and stood out into the lake. At the

miles to warm the motor, veered
around into the light wind, and gave
the plane the gun. Dancing down

stick and jumped the ship into the
air.
He circled once for altitude. passed
over Edmonton. . mile above the
still-sleeping city: and headed west.
toward the snowy Selkirks and the
Pacific Coast.
Al he dew along, his eyes were
on the horizon over the planes nose,
but his thoughts went on beyond
that horizon to the weeks and
months ahead. He wondered where
the Karakhan hunt would take him
and what the yelled future held for
him.

The girl smiled weakly. 1T didn't do me
any good" she observed. Then she tainted
again.
Bill looked up at his caddy, who had been
lowering around What, he asked "am
going to do with her?"
BETTER take her to doc" the caddy advised.
Bill picked up the limp form and started
toward the caddy house. The parking lot was
much nearer however, so he changed direction
and made for his roadster.
"A beautiful girl, and I've killed her, or
something" he accused himself as he hurried
across the golf course Probably the most
beautiful girl I've ever seen," he added.
While he placing her carefully in the
seat of the car the girl whispered Thanks"
B1l permitted himself another breath of re-
lief.
Her head dropped against his shoulder as
the roadster raced along the golf club drive
way. He held her with one arm and spun the
machine out onto the State highway with the
other. They were several miles from the city.
Bill jammed the accelerator down. hoping that
there would be a physicians Office somewhere
in the nearest suburb.
Where" inquired pleasant voice from his
shoulder, sis the f1re?"
Bill glanced down into pair of wide-open
hazel eyes. He released the accelerator.
"Were all out of hres,' he said. "but we
might be able TO show you something nice in
another form of catastrophe"
you have" said the girl. She sat up and
ran her fingers gently the back of her
head. Mother warned me about bobbing my
hair" she observed.
I'm terribly sorry Bill said humbly.
"Oh, think I'll live"
Bill stopped the car In front Oh mouse

here and see," he suggested.
I'D rather not" the girl said quickly. DOC
tors Offices always make me i'll. I feel fine
now"
Bill looked at her. She was sitting back in
the corner of the seat, brown knees crossed
under the hem of the white dress, looking as
fresh and poised though nothing had hap
pened.
you certainly look all right" he said with
more feeling than he had intended.
THANK you" She looked at him with a
mischievous grin tugging at the corners of her
mouth and Bills heart began doing strange
antics within his chest

IER eyes, he noticed, were clear almost to
] the point of briIIiance, and her skin was
remarkably smooth in spite of its tan.
Lets" stammered Bill-'1et's ride around
awhile"
Let's" agreed the girl finally losing control
of the grin.
Bill drove far out into the country, trying
TO put as many miles as possible between the
car and Greenfield before the girl suggested
turSing back She didn't. She seemed to be
thoroughly enjoying herself.

name, it seemed, was Jane. There was last

were too many vital interesting things to talk
about to waste time on such labels as names
and addresses and places of employment.

However, the COW is off the

for the worlds greatest conference
to get down to the great things
that were properly expected of it.
Farley Progress Seen
The high tension created by
the constant references to the
debts has given away to tenn
porary relaxation at least. The
persistent charge that nothing
could be done until that subject
was disposed of, coupled with the
fact that the American repreSen-
tativeS of creditor nation had
no authority or power to dispose
OF 1t, resulted in much confusion
and threatened continuance of
the conference.
NOW, however. some progress is
being made as the steering COM
mlttee has decided upon the per-
sonnet of some subcommittee or
commissions created to study a
report on subjects of the con-
ference agenda.

PROFESSORS Of English held = convention in Kan

discussed the influence of newspapers in modify
ing the speech of the people As might have been
pected, some felt that this influence good, while
others thought it terrible.
In their search for short words which will fit in
the limited space available to them, writers of
paper headlines have developed peculiarly effective,
though sometime inelegant, form of expression.
In the headlines, investigation, of which there
many, is called 'probe" because five letters

go its way. 1t will anyway"
And that probably covers all that is to be said on
