Where We Owe Mucl

Where We Owe Much
l read somewhere that a heroic
statue was recently unveiled to
Hippocrats in Athens. 1t is a fit
ting tribute, for there are few men
in human history whose influence
has lasted SO long or is so sure to
continue into the future. He was
a philosopher as we'll as a physician.
One Of the most famous aphorisms
in our languages came from him,
though few recognize it. Said he:
life is short, and the Art is
long; the occasion fleeing; ex-
perience fallacious and judgment
difficult. The physician must not
only be prepared to do what is
right himself, but also to make the
patient, the attendants, and the ex-
ternals cooperae."
His enduring fame, however,
rests upon the Hippocratic Oath.
II wear by Apollo the physician,
and Aesculapius l will keep
this oath -. l will follow that
system of regimen which
consider of benefit to my patients,
and abstain from whatever is de-
leterious and mischievous -. l will
give no deadly medicine to anyone,
if asked .. With purity and with
holiness l will pass my life and
practice my art -. Into whatever
houses I enter, I will go into them
for the benefit of the sick, anc
will abstain from every voluntary
act of mischief and corruption -.
Whatever l see or hear, in connec-
ton with my professional practice
or not in connection with it
which ought not to be spoken o1
abroad, l will not divulge. :"
The oath closes with a prayer
that, so long as it is strictly OBJ.
served, the physician may be bless.
ed of gods and respected Of men
but that neither respect nor bless.
ing shall dwell with him who vic.
lates it.
What an achievement it is for
man to have set up a standard
which has guided the thinking ane
practice of a whole profession fol
rwenty-three centuries! It's a high
standard and, to the eternal credi,
Eof physicians, a great majority Of
them make an honest effort to live
up to it.

Potted Chicken.

Take cold roast chicken, reject
ing the skin and sinews, chop fine
and to every pint allow a half-cup-
full of chopped ham or tongue. Put
the bones of the fowl into a sauce
pan, add a pint of cold water and
simmer until there is half a pint of
stock; strain and remove the fat.
Pound the chicken, and ham or
tongue to a smooth paste in a NOR
tar with an Old-fashioned pestle;
this makes a smooth paste; or it
may be put several times through
the food chopper until fine. Then
pound-the pounding makes the
meat of the creamy consistency
needed. Add a little of the broth,
season with cayenne, nutmeg and
tablespoonful of butter. Put into

with a cloth, then cover the cloth
with a flour and water paste. Bake
in moderate oven for half an hour,

TIPSY MATCH PACK
TIPSY MATCH PACK

TOR this entertaining trick, you
require an emptied book of paper
matches. In mysterious fashion
you set the match pack on end and
release it.
Presto! The match pack does a
complete somersault along the ta-
BILE. You pick it up, set it down
and it repeats its acrObatic stunt.
Other people try it; but somehow
the trick fails to work for them.
TO begin with, you must bend
the match pack to make it concave
at the front. People observe this
fact and they think they know the
secret. But they invariably neglect
to notice the most important part
of the trick.
Always stand the match pack up
side down and let it roll backward.
Other people, trying to duplicate
your stunt, will naturally set the
pack right side up. From that po-
sitiOn, it will not do the double
roll.

SAMMY JAY WORRIES

TT ISN'T often Sammy Jay wor-
l. ries about anybody but himself.
Truth to tell, he doesn't worry
about himself very often. You see,
Sammy is smart and he knows he
is smart. Under that pointed cap
of his are some of the clevereSt
wits in all the Green Forest. Sammy
seldom worries about himself be-
cause he feels quite able to take
care of himself.
But Sammy Jay was worrying
now. He was worrying about Light
foot the Deer. For two days he
had been unable to find LightfoOt
or any trace of LightfOOt But he
did find plenty of hunters with ter
rible guns. 1t seemed to him that
they were everywhere in the Green
Forest. Sammy began to suspect
that one of them had succeeded in
killing Lightfoot the Deer.
Sammy knew all of LightfoOt's
hiding places. He visited every one
one of them. LightfOot wasn't to
be found.
Sammy felt bad. You see, he
was very fond of LightfoOt. You
remember it was Sammy who
warned Lightfoot of the coming of
the hunter on the morning when
the dreadful hunting season began.
Ever since the hunting season had
opened Sammy had done his best
to make trouble for the hunters

Keeps Seasons in Order.
Gives Fair Maidens
Their Chance.

This is leap year and February
% is the cause of it. But the cause
of February 20 dates back to 46 p
C.. when the astronomers of Julius
Caesar figured out that the solar
year (the time it takes the earth f.
complete its orbit around the sunl
was 800 days and six hours.
The six hours stumped them until
they decided to add an extra day tt
every fourth year and make that
366th day February %. This is
"leap' year because the extra day
causes the calendar to leap over a
day of the week after February %.
Ordinarily the calendar rOtates just
one day because 800 is one over 80
seven day weeks. Thus, March l
fell on Friday last year, but will fall
on Sunday instead of Saturday this
year.
Pope Suppresses Ten Days.
The Julian astronomers didn't
have the thing down pat, however,
for the solar year is actually 365
days, ; hours, As minutes and 45.51
seconds. BY the time Pope Gregory
NH decided to act in 1852 A. D. the
dates of the year had shifted 10
days out of season. To correct this
Pope Gregory ordered that October
s. 1852, be made October Is, 1852.
To take care of the discrepancy oc
g
astronomers decided that leap year
should be omitted on every century
year not divisible by 400. Leap
year won't be suppressed again until
21O0 A. D.
Anyway, leap year has more ro
mantle aspect. BY tradition, if moi
by practice, it is the time woman
can propose marriage to a man. The
origin of this counter attack in the
love suit is less satisfactorily ex-
planned than the Julian apd Grego-
rian calendars.
But apparently Margaret of Nor
way, who became queen of Scotland,
started the thing in 1888 A. D. by
saying there ought TO be law. She
decreed that during the leap years
of her reign every 'mayden ladye of
bottle highe and lowe eStait shall hae
liberte to bespeake ye man she likes"

Then who would long delay?
Let me go seeking fortune,
Let me 60 finding fame,
And doing something for the world,
The world that does the same.
Let me be far at noontide,
Be far upon the quest,
For with so much to do, to see,
Then VINO would care to rest?

A hundred matters to be done
And highways to explore.
Let me be up at morning,

For with so much to see, to do,
And so the morn to venture,
And so the day to roam,
But, when the evening shadows fall,
Let me be coming home.

POTTED MEATS AND FISH

IN ENGLAND pOtted meats are so
L common that the everyday cook
knows all about preparing them.
We like to have such meats Occa-
sionally, and the following are re-
liable methods of preparing such
dishes.
Meat such as ham, tongue or
chicken as we'll as fish may be pot
ted for a luncheon dish, rather than
use it in other ways, such as hash,
which is all too common in some
homes. The goodness of the potted
meats is, of course, first of all, in
the meat, then in the proper pound
ing and preparation and seasoning.
If carefully prepared and put away,
these will keep for a long time and
may be used for an occasional
snack or an emergency dish.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
BEWARE OF THE TWISTER

This cannot be too often repeated: Beware of
the life insurance "twister.'
The "twister" is an irresponsible agent who
seeks to persuade the owner of a life insurance
policy to give it up, and purchase new one in
some other company. Every legitimate life insur-
ance company fights the twister Insurance COM
missions are likewise his trail. But it seems
impossible to put him out of business-unless the
public consciousness is awakened to the menace he
represents ... ..-.....
The soul of life insurance is the time element
Sucb essential benefits of life policy loan and
cash surrender values necessarily grow with timc
as more payments on the policy are made. When
you drop policy you lose benefits you have built
I'D over a period of years, and it will take many
wears to build up comparable benefits in new
policy.
Further, the cost of protection naturally increas
es as YOU grow older-and the annual premium OF
a policy you buy today must be greater than on
the same kind of policy bought five, ten or twenty
wears ago. The life insurance twister hides these
truths throgh Misrepresentation, suave and mis-
leading arguments, and, often, plain lying.
When 'twister" approaches you, report him to
his company or to the one in which you have
policy now, and you will be doing public service,
In effect, he is as much thief as the. man who
