also with bringing healthy chill

prevents their becoming worse. He
studies the condition of the coming
child and regulates the life of the
mother so as to make the child at
the time of its birth as capable as
possible of undergoing the vicissi-
tudes of the first year of life. The
first year of life, like the last, is a
most dangerous one.
Regardless of the vast expendi-
lures in educating women concern
ing the Importance of prenatal care,
there are still tremendous numbers
who do not realize its necessity and
fail to understand what proper
prenatal care includes.
These people do not recognize the
danger of persistent vomiting,
bleeding, nausea, and even difficulty
with their vision, although every one
of these symptoms is a warning that
great danger is near.
Approximately 10000 women lose
their lives in the United States every
year as the direct or indirect result
of childbirth. Many of these deaths
are preventable.
Much of the blame attaches to
| the women themselves. Because of
| ignorance and negligence, thousands
of them fail to take advantage of
whe.t modern medicine can do to
prevent complications and insure the
birth of healthy child.

TODAY's SCIENCE
by DAVID DIETZ

CIXTY Investigations in the field
~ of welding are now under way
in university laboratories of the ma
ton under the guidance of the
Welding Research Committee of the
Engineering Foundation of. New
York. Additional researches are be-
ing started in industrial and gov
eminent laboratories and plans are
being made by the committee to
expand its organization and pro-
gram.
The program will effect an enor-
nous number of industrial activities,
including the construction of
streamline trains, airplanes, gil
gantic electric generators, steel
buildings and naval armament, &C.
cording to Prof. G. A. Adams of
Harvard University, committee
chairman.
The activities of the committee
are being sponsored jointly by the
American Welding Society ard the
American Institute of Electrical
Engineers.
To-day welding is the most i'm
portant and most widely used
method in industry, and in nearly
all of its applications notable saw
ings are effected by superior
quality of product" Prof. Adams
said.
However, the welding problem is
so complicated and the temptation
to effect economies is so great that
the welding of structures has some
times been undertaken without a
thorough knowledge of the prob
lens involved.
A subcommittee, headed by Col.
G. F. Janks, commanding officer of
the WATERFOWL (Mass.) Arsenal,
has been formed to coordinate in
dustrial Welding research through
out the country.
William Sparagen of New York
secretary of the committee. esti-
mates that not more than % per
cent of the possibilities of welding
| have been fully explored.

Now consider what this new dis
covery may do for society. The
manufacture of rayon gave en-
ployment to $4,000 people who, in
one year, received $60,000,000 in
wages. In addition, almost $780,
100000 was spent on raw and other
materials for the textile. One

TN previous generations, the wom-
| Il an who was about to bear a
child kept the matter secret from
even her husband until well along
in the course of the event. AS the
time approached when the child
was to be born, she would notify
her doctor.
In many instances, however, the
doctor was not notified until the
moment of Childbirth. Then, in the
home, with the aid of a neighbor or
of relative, the child would be
brought into the community.
Advances of scientific medicine
have greatly changed our points of
view in relation to what is proper
in childbirth. Nowadays, the in
telligent woman will consult her
doctor long before she is ready to
have child.
He finds out whether her health
will permit her to have a child
without seriously injuring herself
and without danger to the prospec-
tive baby.
TINE intelligent woman also con-
l. suits her doctor just as soon as
she realizes that she is going to
have a baby. He examines her to
make certain of the diagnosis. He
confirms his examination by vari-
Gus tests made in the laboratory as
well as by physical examination of
the patient herself,
The doctor will do many things
to regulate the expectant mothers
habits and hygiene, according to
her condition. He will control her
diet, her exercise, her rest, her
work, and every other factor of her
existence, in relation to the physi-
| cal changes which she will under

Cap Coffin used to have a sign
which hung above his desk, when he
had q desk, which read: ITO the

We wonder what has become OF
the sign? And also what has be-
come of the fodder?
Cap Coffin may still have the sign
but the Republicans of Marion
county certainly haven't had any
fodder since Cap has held the
Republican reins, for the Democrats
have every job in the county. II
Republicans want public jobs again
then they had better find some way
to lose Mr.. Coffin. It can be done in
this primary.

They were walking the half-mile from
