Your Health
by DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN.

A BIRTHMARK NAV be useful thing for pur-
pose of identification or it NAV be of particu-
lar value to you beauty spot if it happens to be
dark dot on your cheek. chin or shoulder blade.
But there are several types of birthmarks, and
about as many superstitions regarding them. And
you'll find very few persons without birthmarks
at all
Whenever a baby has a strawberry mark its
mother is likely to remember uncontrolled appe-
title which she had for strawberries, which I'M
satisfied.
If the baby has hairy and pigmented mole. the
mother may have some memory of being frightened
by mouse a dog. Sometimes baby is born
with skin that resembles in spots that of fish,
and there are innumerable superstitons about fish
But all these birthmarks are merely malforma-
tons Of the tissues and they not related in any
way to mental causes.
MOST birthmsrks, n not too extensive, are not
WI dangerous to health and are treated easily by
modern scientific methods. In most cases, they are
made up of small blood vessels.
When they are fiat with the surface of the skin,
they are port wine color and are called port wine
marks. If they are raised above the surface of the
berries and are called strawberry marks.
There is only type of birthmark that may
have potential dsnger-that is the mole which is
blush slate colored and which varies in size
from that Of pnhead TO several inches in diameter.
II this type of mole becomes irTitated, it may
grow suddenly and develop into a serious form of
cancer.
CASES of this type have been reported in medical
~ articles. If such mole occurs on a part of the
body which it is likely to be irrtated, it should
have prompt treatment.
II has been found. through recent investigations,
that the strawberry birthmark is treated best with
radium and the best time to do this is during the
first few years of Life The skin Of the young child
heals promptly. fI

Today's Science
By DAVID DIETZ :

Z EXPERIMENTS with the positron the newly dis
covered positive electron, are proceeding at such
rate that to quote Dr. Karl K. Darrow zone has to
snatch them week by week from the pages of the
Complies Rendus. Of Nature, or from the proceed
ings of the American Physical Society" The
Comptest Rendus is published in Paris, Nature in
London.
DR.. Darrow divides the recent developments into
three classes The first includes experiments in
which eectrons particles of matter are apparently
transformed into energy. The possibility of this
curing suggested as early as 1905 by Professor
Albert Einstein.
Since then, astronomers have used this hypothesis
and the There was, however, no direct expert
mental proof of the transformation of matter into
energy.
Last year. shortly after the discovery of the posi-
tron 1t was thought proof of just the opposite the
transformation of energy into matter had been dis
covered. This also is possible according to the Elm
stein equations
THE new experiments thought TO demonstrates
l. the first mentioned change, that is the trans
formation of matter into energy, the work of the
French experimenters, DR.. j. Thibaud and DR.. r.
Joliet Their results appear in the Complies Rendus
DR.. Thibaud in his experiments sets up a series Of
thin fos Of platinum. Photographic film is placed
behind the last foil block Of lead is then bonn
barded with radium rays. BY means of an arrange
lead are concentrated into beam which strikes the
platinum foils.
The image formed on the Photographic film is
such that it not be satisfactorily explained from
the impact of POSITIONS alone. It can, however. be
explained, according to DR.. Thibau6, on the assump-
ton that some of the POSITIONS have been trans
formed into photons of energy. He speaks of this
process as . @dematerialization" Of the pOsitrons

TO-DAY is award day-simply

Into my own and private hall of

standpoint L have ever seen,
either silent or talking.

Just a short time ago, we re-
ceived word from Kenneth Collins,

David Harum" would start it's
fourth and final week at his the
alter tomorrow.
Passing the Apollo shortly after
the first show yesterday, the door
man conf1ded that they we're
standing up"
This is a great record. 1t is
interesting to see a talkie bring
American literature to the screen
in a human way.
Mark Twain and James Whit
comb Riley have not been treated
we'll on the screen. The Con-
necticut Yankee" is the only ex-
ception.
David Harum" is a personal
triumph for Will Rogers. Thou
sands will always remember him
for his grand performance in the
picture.
David Harum" should be the
best movie of the year from
standpoint of human values and
Mr.. Rogers should be the leading
actor on the screen when this
movie year is over.

Superstition, chicanery, humor,

mantle love. Romantic love was
development of a later civil
zation.
Scientists have studied the
frantic predictions of the prophets
and the miracles performed to
find the key to the sweeping fer
vor of religion. Whatever may
have been the weaknesses of Old
Testament characters, they had
staunch spirits that cried out an
unbroken faith in their deity.
No better description of early
civilization and modes of living
are found than in the Old Testa-
ment. The hierarchy of religion
and state, the rural struggle
against pestilence and famine, the
cruel domination of the Pharaohs
and methods of warfare are de-
picted.
Inc pragmaClC wisdom OF SOLO
mon and the rich pageantry of his
court, the friendship of Jonathan
and David and the faith of Ruth

Sincerity at It's Worst

Il of which we have been speaking. Obviously
the true member of the clan is very full of some
thing, and believe the thing which pufS him out
is combination of pride in himself and enthusiasm
for something either silly or monstrous or both
The great advantage of organizing this faction
is that where two three stuffed shirts gath
cred together then comes the tug of war. They are
not people who live in amity with their own
kind They suffoCate another. If it is only
possible to get them all into the same lodge they will
leave such a small number of survivors that the
world will be able to attend to them without much
fuss or friction.

Through the Old Testament
runs a melancholy dirge that
shows a tremendous capacity and
inclination for pain. Aside from
that it is a poetic history Of a
people, driven out of their ma
tive land and forced to become
a distracted nomad band. The
fear of Jehovah and the stern
discipline of Moses kept the tribe
struggling together toward the
goal of the promised land.
Such powerful motivations as
religion, persecution, and battling
the elements themselves furnish
magnificent dramatic possibilities.
There are few scenes in all litera-
ture such as the one in which
troubled and weary Moses, a,
grand figure, stands on the noun
tain top as a storm thunders
about him, praying to his deity
for guidance.
There is a strength In that
scene which makes contemporary
literature pale into anemic scrib-
blings of immature boys. Critics
have frequently pointed out that
the best art is created by those
who have suffered tremendous
mental and physical pain.
II
THERE is quality so human
Il in the Old Testament, as the
people, perpleXed and sorely
troubled, look with weary hope
for solutions, that it lives again
in the minds of the reader. When
Job shouts forth, sobbing curses
upon his God, he might be the
broken. disillusioned man of to-
daV CRYING from sheer hYSteria.
