BADNESS MAY
BE HEREDITARY
SAYS BULLETIN

The question:: how can keep from
getting bald, is usually asked by the
son and grandson of a man who suf-
fered prematurely from the same
misfortune, says a bulletin issued
today by the Public Health Educa-
ton Committee.
The question is very hard to an
swer because there appear to be peo-
pie who are bald for no particular
reason that anybody can find out ex-
cept that their fathers were bald be-
fore them and premature badness
seems to run Tin the family"
A typical stretched condition of the
covering of the frontal muscle of the
forehead and top of the head is said
and, for them, tonics and creams and
packs are not likely to do much good.
In all cases, however, proper, reg
ular washing, and prompt treatment
of eruptions, eczemas and even mild
seborrheas, inflammations of the oil
glands which result in dandruff are
advised in the bulletin as good gen.
eral preventive hygiene.
Stiff hats worn for long periods of
time are also to be avoided. They
press on frontal arteries and besides
shut out sunshine and air.
Excessive use of water on the scalp
is also thought to be a factor to be
considered in premature badness,
and it should be avoided.
The badness that comes after mid
die age is another thing, according
to investigators and may be a result
of skin changes due to age in the
scalp. Chronic disease, also undoubt-
eddy predisposes to hair loss. Anemia,
rheumatism, malaria neurotic changes
and even anxiety and worry are
things to watch. OF course acute dis
eases and fevers, are known to cause
loss of hair though the loss is often
only temporary in these cases.

"PhiP' Pleased With Showing.

Wisconsin Progressives may justly
feel jubilant over the showing they
have made. The result is highly
encouraging to every Progressive
in Wisconsin and in America" says
Phil LaFollette. ''the Progressive
showing is all the more unusual be-
cause there was no real fight for the
two major offices on the Progressive
ticket, because many of the local Of
fees in the various counties were un-
contested, and because the voter in
the primary was barred from splitting
his ticket"
With a united front there should
be little difficulty experienced by Wis
consin Progressives in making a
tion. Robert M. LaFollette, Jr., will
undoubtedly be reelected United
States senator, and it looks to me as
though his equally illustrious brother
will be chosen governor. 1t may be
stated too in this connection that all
is not well in the Democratic camp.
The supporters of William B. Rubin,
who opposed Schmedeman for the
gubernatorial nomination, are not at
all likely to give their votes to the
latter in view of the bitter campaign
waged upon the Schmedeman admin
istration by Rubin and his friends.
All omens point to Progressive vic
tory in the Badger state on Novem-
Der 9Th.
