LISTLESS, TIRED, APATHETIC
 SCHOOL GIRLS

LISTLESS, TIRED, APATHETIC
 SCHOOL GIRLS
 About a year ago, writes moth CT, I sent for your instructions for taking an iodin ration, in the hope that it might help my IF year old daughter. She was listless, slumped in her chair, always had to lean against something when standing and constantly complained about being tired and sleepy. Shortly af- ter starting on the iodin ration she improved wonderfully. Some months afterward my oldest daughter, IA, began to get poor marks in school and complained of inability to remember lesson even when she studied it in the study period imemdiately preced- ing class. After taking the iodin ration a short while she had no further trouble. I am 40, and took it for graying hair, but could not keep it up because it made me feel like screaming and skipping at the children, six of them, every time they got too noisy. l tried 1t several times, but each time with the same results. My Sraying hair is not due to poor health, because l feel great.
 We'll, that's over. Any one who | wishes the instructions for taking suitable iodin ration may write in, | inclosing stamped addressed en- velope. think every schoolgirl and in some districts, every school boy too, should have additional iodin, besides the problematic quantity there may be present Tn some natural foods. For mature | adults who go stale or become prematurely old, a suitable iod!n | ration is often of extraordinary benefit. o do not believe 1t re- stores pristine color to gray hair or that 1t restores youth to the sen- ile. But 1 do think it tends to postpone the graying of hair, the hardening of arteries and other ill., sidious encroachments of senility. These folk who have gone stale need general reformation in diet and other matters of hygiene. l have a booklet for them, '"rhe Re- generation Regimen"-it includes the iodin ration instructions, too. It is yours if you ask for 1t and inclose a dime and s, a. e. Now want to hear some more from the Minnesota mother. She has few wholesome words to say to her sisters:
 T, too, can say to some of | these ailing women who are
 afraid to have babies, that
 there's nothing like raising
 family to make you forget about your own little troubles.
 Bringing up family of six
 children is real thrill. It
 keeps you on your toes, your
 mind has no chance to so
 stale. You can eat what you | like without fear of getting l overweight, you're grateful for
 a simple home and three plain | meals a day, for pleasures
 which are all around you and
 cost nothing, and you never
 expect father to buy you fur
 coat or pearl necklace because
 you know that is out of the question.
 l (Mrs J. F.--.) | I've never had baby, so accord ing to some childless critics have no business shooting off ml mouth about this baby business. But get pretty sick of all the requests for "birth control" advice that come in from the younger gener- ation, and 1t is downright cheering to hear from a real mother who doesn't feel that children are an | o fftictiOn

INFANTILE PARALY YSIS VACCINE
EXPERIMENTS SHOW PROGRESS

PASADENA, Sept. 7. U.P)-Dele-
gates to the annual American Pub
lie Health association convention
here carried homeward today word
OF important progress in the bat
tie of medical science against in
fantile paralysis and tuberculosis
among children
Coming as a much-awaited high
spot to the four-day conference of
health leaders, DR.. Maurice Brodie,
New York City health department
research expert disclosed a series
of experiments on IL children which
he said forecast the ultimate i'm
munization Of children against in
fantile paralysis.
Complete tests with monkeys as
the subjects have proven so success
full that the time apparently is not
far distant when children may be
protected by vaccination, DR.. Bro
die told the group.
Declaring tuberculosis still caused
more deaths among persons from
IS to as than any other disease, Dr..
Reginald Smart of the Los Angeles
county health department described
current educational and preventive
Imperial Valley press., 1934-09-07

work to combat the disease.
The desirability of examining all
school children, especially to iden-
tify susceptibles and cases in the
very early stages, was emphasized
by DR.. Smart.
Perfection of the new X-ray ma
chine which allows operators to
take 100 pictures of the human
chest in less than an hour at a
cost of less than ST. picture was
hailed as great aid in future pre-
ventive work among children.
Discussing the topic of X-ray pic
lures, DR.. Margaret Barnard of the
New York City health department
also urged tuberculin tests and x
ray examinations for all contact
children, and X-ray examinations
for adolescent school children,
where the danger of developing
serious LESSONS is greatest.
DR.. Brodie's discussion of infan-
tile paralysis vaccine had been
anticipated as the outstanding talk
of the conference. The doctor re-
vealed that for the first time the
innoculation work had been done
on children as well as monkeys.

He listened attentively. Then he opened the
tea bottle, drained it in long gulps swung it by
its strap and tossed it ahead. Then he followed
the rattle it made. Once more the sound Of q
man speaking There was no doubt this time.
Not only was a man talking, but he was talking
In German.
Almost before he realized the import Of what
he had heard Higgins rounded slight turn in
the gully. Then he stopped, momentarily
frozen into immobilty by the amazing sight
which was presented to his gaze.
A FEW feet ahead Of him was q large
~ cavity under a water-worn rock. There.
one arm resting on the barrel Of a machine
gun. man was looking at Huggins On his
head was the round German fatigue cap
Thought flashed like lightning through Hug
gins mind. The machine gun, he saw, faced
at an angle away from him and toward the line
which the oncoming American reinforcements
would take as they neared the bridge. He
realized its purpose there the old trick OF leav-
ing machine gun crew hidden when troops re-
tired so that it might fire into the backs Of the
advancing enemy.
In about one-haf minute that advancing
column Of Americans was going to be cut to
pieces by this hidden machine gun.
And then Higgins realized. that the man
whose arm rested on the machine gun was moV-
ing fast.
Higgins could have stepped back but he
didn't. His rifle came up and he fired before
the butt reached his shoulder. The moving man
stopped and his head fell on his arm His face
began to redden.
Higgins lunged forward, automatically throw
ing the bolt of his rifle A shot roared and ne
felt his sleeve twitch. Higgins fired blindly,
straight into the hole. Another shot answered.
hot iron scared his shoulder. Then he was
at the machine gun.
He stumbled across the barrel and as he fell
the world rocked in a mighty explosion. He
reached for an arm holding automatic. He
grabbed it, twisted and pulled down. AS he did
he raised his knee. A man screamed in anguish
Again the world rocked. A third German
was firing. Higgins heard the bullet whine of
the rock near his head. He stin held his rifle
In one hand. He jabbed it like spear. Some
thing soft pushed against 1t and then it was
torn from his hand.
He tried to get to his feet and close with the
other before he could fire again. Another roar
and bullet burned along his leg. And then
