Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

MOT ntrequently, after person has had a severe
cold or repeated severe colds he develops
chronic inflammation of the mucous membrane
which line the walls Of the tubes that carry air from
the windppe in the throat to the smallest parts of
the cells of the lungs. These tubes called bronchi
and any inflammation Of them is called bronchitis.
The chief and worst symptom of bronchitis is
continued cough With this cough there is a large
amount Of sputum that the condition is some
times mistaken for tuberculosis There are of course
such symptoms as slight fever and sometimes pain
in the chest.
The condition has been known for many years
anG has usually been treated by putting a mustard
plaster the chest, by inhaling cod liver oil and
other substances which help to build up the nutrition
generally
1t has also been considered good treatment for
the patient to go for while to warm dry climate,
but this type Of climate treatment usually is not
available to any but the well-to-do.
MYTH development Of new kinds Of apparatus.
w however, it has now become possible not only
to look directly at the walls of the bronch and to
the kinds of Inflammation that have taken place,
but also to make X-ray pictures of the bronchi and
to apply treatment directly to the walls that are
inlamed.
1t has been found that the injection of odized
oils into the tubes does not harm the health gener-
ally and permits the taking Of Xray pictures which
completely outlines the tubes
These pictures enable the doctor to see whether
there is thickenng Of the walls or of the tissues
around the walls.
After the direct and X-ray studies have been
made, it is best. first to eliminate every possible
focus Of infection in the mouth and in the throat
since Inflammation in the bronchial tubes may be
related to infection elsewhere.
TT has been found that injection of the odized oil
l. for purpose of X-ray in some cases. has relieved
the symptoms for various periods Of time
Therefore many physicians now inject such oils
or other soothing substances directly into the bron
chal tubes and in this way ameliorate the trouble.
Effects Of such injections continue for at least
twenty-four hours during which the cough is much
less and the amount of sputum greatly reduced;
sometimes the improvement lasts for weeks many
months.
The method as you can see, is which must
be applied by doctor.

YOUNGER utility executives
Il are preparing to go out and
compete for business. Samuel
Ferguson, president of the Hart
ford Electric Light Company,
speaking recently of IVA rates,
said Your company welcomes
this challenge to match Yankee
dollars and ingenuity against tax
payer dollars and the efficiency
of government bodies"
The Importance of the split
among utility men is indicated
in a report issued yesterday by the
United States Chamber of Com
merce on Residential Rates for
Light and Power" 1t gives seri-
Gus consideration to the theory
of lower domestic rates as a means
of increasing business and
revenues.
After stating the case against
lower rates, it supplies figures
showing that in 1913 the average
consumer used 264 kilowatt hours
a year, paid an average Of 81
cents a kilowatt hour and had an
annual light and power bill Of
S22.97. while in 1888 he used 6O4
kilowatt hours, paid $40 cents an
hour and had an annual bill of
S33.16

Today the caddies made new

WHEN classes were resumed
w in the fall of 1904 and
Frank Roosevelt had been pro-
NOTED from managing editor to
president of the Crimson staff, it
seemed that it was high time to
give the freshmen bit of advice,
F. D. R. now being a senior.
So on Sept. 30, a long editorial
appeared devoted to Freshman
Responsibility" Here the Roose-
welt doctrine of the strenuous life,
then being preached from the
United States presidency by T. r.,
and now exemplif1ed by the en-
tire White House family, was
ladled out for frosh consumption.
The only way to fulfill ones re-
sponsibility while in college, the
editorial advised, is Ito be always
active"
1T is not so much brilliance as
effort that is appreciated here" it
continued and urged upon each
entrant the determination to
accomplish something"
That same fall Fusion" was be-
ing tried in New York City for the
occasional purging of the Tam
many tiger. Frank" Roosevelt of
the Crimson didn't show enough
interest in the election to bring
forth any 1904 model Joseph Nc
Kee, under the protecting wing of
a former Farley, but an editorial
did appear on the subject.
IN the communications column,
l. an appeal was set forth for all
Harvard men who were residents
of New York City to return on
election day and vote Fusion"
against "Tammany."
Here is what the editors had
to say about that
I'VE are reminded by the COM
munication about voting in the
New York election that the Po-
litical Club here has field of
work which is very large and in
which much good might be done.
Last year this organization took
a good step IN arranging a few
talks on politics, but these talks
would do more good if there were
more of them and if they were
open to the whole university.
Subject matter never was gone
into in the Crimson editorials,
however. An ardent Tory or the
most enthusiastic booster of Ted
dy" could read them without any
increased blood pressure.

.SIoppu Writinq-SIoppH Thinking

IT seems to me that DR.. Nillikans sloppy writing is
il an indication Of sloppy thinking. For instance,
think ms conception of education as cash and
carry proposition is hardly in tune with the highest
ideals of learning Dr. MIlkan, If his words mean
anything in particular, would furnish education only
TO those capable of making material return to the
community equal to the cost of the education.
But he does not suggest what coins are to be used
as tokens Is the philosopher worthy of his hire?
Can the poet be said to have recOmpenSed the SOW
ereign state Of California with sonnet? Does the
alma mater Of Upton Sinclair list him in the black
or red side of the ledger?
DR.. Mihkan seems to have no patience with the
ideal of learning for its own sake In effect he IS
saving, Here Is a course on Chaucer. IT costs us
s65 Is for every student who enrolls. Go out into
the world with the S6515 worth of Chaucer and
earn an equal amount to pay us in recompense"

To illustrate, when Lieutenant
Governor Guild of Massachusetts,
gave a lecture at the school on
Dangers of Democracy" the only
editorial comment was that it was
obstructive and interesting"
The topic still is good, being
used daily by the antiNew Deal
ers, and President Roosevelt now
has some opinions on it, as was
shown by his radio address to the
country before leaving on his
vacation voyage.
AS president of the Crimson he
was mum on all such debatable
affairs.

i i Philippine islands once were

zle for paTseTs from the pen of Dr. Mllhkan:
The American dream Is that this country may
always remain a land Of freedom and Of opportunity
"a land m which each citizen has the possibility Of
rising to Just such position Of power and influence
among his fellows as his own character. his indus
try his own capacities should create for him; land
in which the opportunity for education is denied to
no one who has demonstrated his capacities to re-
turn TO society through that education what it costs
society give to him: land in which the stand
ard OF living Of the common man is just as high as
compatible with the total productivity Of the coun-
try. a land that has intelligent and informed an
electorate that social changes. however farreaching
always be brought about and can only be
brought about by constitutional ballot methods. never
either BY the violence Of the mob the despotic
power OF the man on horseback supported by the
rife and the bayonet."

A single, short editorial APP
pesred the day the McGaw speech
was printed. 1t urged all eligible
students TO attend the senior
smoker that evening.
Nor was the more weighty mat
ters dealt with by the speaker
taken up by the editors on the
following day. The editorial then
expressed delight at the senior
smoker being such a grand sue
cess.
If the rich really were Undo
lent" and the cause of municipal
degradation, young Editor Roose-
welt and his cohorts were not the
ones to say so. Their attitude at
that time might we'll be expressed
by that modern slang phrase
skip it."
That doesn't mean that the
Crimson editors were undemo-
cratic.
They sponsored the utmost
camaraderie among their fellow
men Of Harvard.
Tor instance, just before COM
Il mencement in June of 1908,
they openly supported a move
ment to let the freshmen students
smoke pipes and cigars in the
Union building. Previously the
privilege had been barred to all
f1rst-year students. That the ban
should be lifted was termed by
the editors IAN excellent sugges-
ton"
They pointed out that Harvard
freshmen should be made to feel
at home" and that once inside the
Union building, which required
dues like a club, equality and
friendship should prevail and all
distinction between man and man
should be abolished
Nor were the editors unmind-
full of the social and perhaps bust
ness advantages which might ac-
crue in later years to those bear
ing the Harvard brand.
In advocating a change in yard
rules" Harvard campus always
has been the yard'O which would
permit those in professional
courses to mingle with the college
students of their class, they wrote:
1T will bring together as far
as possible the men who in later
life will be associated as having
belonged to one class"

The first group is beginning to
believe that its only hope of flu
ture expansion and future profits
lies in taking cooking, refrige-
rating and water heating business
away. from gas utilities and from
coal and oil companies, and in
inducing homes to use new mod

The second group wants to join

other urged support of the track
team, despite the fact they had
lost at New Haven.
A musical clubs concert by the
social service committee was an
other worthy cause" for the
Crimson to comment upon.
But the big drive didn't open
until the football season the next
fall. Then it was that Crimson
President Roosevelt felt called
upon to urge a mo Smoking"
stand for women on the football
field. The editorial asserted that
many girls were being sickened
by the foul smelling pipes, cigars
and cigarets and should have a
smoke-free refuge on the field.

ever-active wife are cigaret smok-

This gave the Crimson editors
some slight chance to eXpound on
the perpetual Philippine question,
which was to be settled by return
of the government to the island
ers by the congress during the
first year of the presidency of
Franklin Roosevelt.
Here is the Crimson comment
of May 25, 1903:
The work of settling the Phil
ippine islands will not be accom-
plished in five, ten or fifteen
years, but it will be a long and
difficult task of several genera
tons"
1t then was pointed out that
the Harvard room was a worthy
cause and all should be willing
to support it to show that we
are behind our Countrymen in the
far east-that we are not mere
spectators of the difficult task in
our new islands"
