 "None of those who have stood shoulder to shoulder in this fight need have regrets or fears, for in the making of this fight they have freely and courageously followed the dictates of their conscience. Under our form of govern ment, militant and vigilant minority had vital service to render the nation.

mined upon his present campaign for men in public office "who are musicians enough to realize the demoralizing effect of bad music.'
 Another authority who would rather be Sweet" than swing is Walter Rooms, music editor for the National Broadcasting Company. He also thinks that 1t is Q rever- sion to a lower form of jazz, and hates to see the popular rhythms, white -collared by Paul Whiteman's careful orchestrations, backslide to their original soiled-shirt condition.
 Rooms says that hot jazz is back again and "'swing' is its new roni- kerr. He points out that 1t has never been completely dead and that even the most sedate orches- tras occasionally indulge in jazz or- gies, but only behind locked doors, with visitors shooed, and micro- phones shut.
 He's not having any, thank you; but adds: However, swing doesn't need radio to keep it going. Hot clubs all over America are culti- vating the sport, and, like measles, it's catching"
 Meanwhile, John Hammond, president of the United Hot Clubs of America, goes merrily on, leading his club members on to bigger and better swinging and insisting that swing is a new expression of inc

Sometimes I wonder if 1t is of any use to warn children and par- ents about the dangers of Q sled. It's like the old preacher who scold- ed his flock for not going to church. Those present did not need 1t and the others were not there to hear. Cautious parents will be cautious anyway and the trusting kind will go right on thinking that nothing can happen to THEIR child. Just the other. children on the hill or highway.
 Actually the only safe place for 6 sled these day is in the cellar. Next to that the yard. Next to that a country hill so far removed from the road that temptation cannot whisper.
 Now, although I could quite as happily watch child sledding on a railroad track as on street or open road, I am not going to harp on the danger. Every parent with even half. a mind knows the risk as well as anyone.
 Instead, I should like to add my say-so to that of others who are favoring more safe places for win- ter sports.
 Children Need Exercise
 It is @ great pity for any child to be deprived of the right to use his sled; or his skates, or skis There is no thrill equal to that of coasting through crisp, cold air, and certainly nothing more health full. No sensation more satisfying than the long easy glide over

smooth ice on skates, because the body demands rhythm whether we laugh at the word or not.
 I know nothing about skiing, but in the movies I get vicarious exaltation by watching. To zing down a hill and over a gap lightens my body and raises my Soul-wings high. You see, therefore, when I urge the promotion of easier, safer winter sports for children and young people, it is not merely theor- izing on my part but a personal sympathy.
 Nothing is more pathetic than for @ boy or girl to possess the means of fun, sled or skates, and have no place to use them. Cities provide for summer playgrcunds but take no thought of winter, when children need outdoor air and exercise as much or even more than in summer.
 Parents Can Provide Safe Area
 Certain streets may be roped of and forbidden the motorist, or tracks made in parks where sport is comparatively safe. There are, of course, places to skate but usu- ally they are either too far for the average youngster to reach. or in- doors where admission makes 1t prohibitive.
 I take of my hat to those com- munities that flood empty lots in a freeze, or scrape of frozen ponds shrouded in snow that makes the skate blade useless.
 The power of the parent has never yet been tested. But com bined 1t is potent enough to get almost anything desired. When community treasuries are empty or too empty to make the world safe for children, there Is nothing to prevent 8 few householder from getting together, all chipping in to defray work. The expense would be nothing.
 DO please watch the river or lake with thin ice. Help prevent the tragedies that usally. mark the winter.

makes you want to swing your arms and snap your fingers. When the furor over Round and Around" dies down, these boys have another number in the ice-box, called "Clap Hands," When. they swing this one, they expect the audience to clap hands, which is one way of in- surfing applause. They have author itative backing for their expecta- tions in Paul Whiteman,S statement that jazz makes people want 10 sway and clap hands.
 John Hammond does not agree with Whiteman that swing is only jazz, but does say that 1t is sonne- thing that we've always had, al- though it was not appreciated, at least by Americans. He instanced Jack Teagarden, of Whiteman,s own band, as one of the hottest swingers. He says that Teagarden doesn't get g chance to swing be- cause >er1e man can't swing alone, and the Whiteman band simply doesn't swing. It is too large in the first place, and rehearses too carefully in the second.
 
 Over at the Onyx Club here, home grounds of Farley and Riley, 1t appears that appreciation of swing may constitute some new kind of Youth Movement. At least there is plenty of movement among the college-age customers, who bounce up and down in their chairs, clap hands, sway and hum along with the music. All of which seems to bear out the definition of swing given by the authors of the rotat- ing rhythm.
 Hammond has said that an in1- portant part of successful swing is a sympathetic spirit on the part of tse audience. Chick Webb, up at Harlem's Savoy Ballroom, feels this way about 1t, too. It seems the customers have real effect on this artist, and unless he senses that subtle response from the crowd, he plays straight, pre-arranged jazz, and doesn't let his boys improvise even a swing sixteenth note.
 The mornings after the nights he has refused to swing, Webb prob- ably will find orchids from Anti Swinger Arthur Cremins and his embattled Music Students Leaguers on his breakfast tray.
 Meanwhile. the battle is on. The Anti-Swing hats are in the ring, while outside it the advocates of the new rhythms go round and around, taunting their conservative foes with a hot rendition of Men, oelssohn's Swing Song".

widely. Too often the brushing of the baby teeth is neglected.
 Physicians have made decided progress towards the improvement of the diet of infants and young children. This will undoubtedly do much to improve the dental health of the next generation. But in addition to the dietary measures, mothers should be certain that the baby teeth are kept clean. Particu- lar care should be used so that there is no possibility of food ac- cumulating between the back teeth of children.
 Probably the most difficult cp- eration in dentistry IS the filling of cavities on the side of 8 child's back teeth. Unless the child Is de- cidedly cooperative and the dentist extremely patient and skillful, such filings will not be permanent. Even if these conditions be met, in manyy instances such cavities af- feet the nerve of the baby teeth to such an extent that they will not only fail to hold the filling but may also become infected. So 1t would seem wise to start brushing teeth, gently of course, as soon as they erupt. Then as time goes by and the teeth become firn- CT in their sockets, the brushing may become more thorough.
 Baby teeth should be kept scrupu- lously clean. ... How to prevent tooth decay VIII be discussed in pr. Wisan's next article.

THE PASSING OF A SURGICAL
 ATROCITY
 Provided you have nothing wrong with your tonsils and none of your immediate relatives or friends is in need of treatment for infected tonsils, there is good deal of sardonic hufnor in the lat- est utterance of the American Medical Association on this ques- ton.
 "When the public learns of the
 dangers and complications that may occur during the removal Of
 tonsils by electrocoagulation" Cor
 as 1t is popularly known, dia-
 thermy), land, what may be even
 worse, leaving a buried focus of
 infection from an incomplete re-
 moval 1t will sun this operation
 as 1t would Q rahid dog"
 So wrote one Ezarry E. Mock. M. D., in an elaborate ten-page article discussing all fields of electrosurgery under the aegis of the Council on Physical Therapy.
 Nothing humorous about It so far, is there? But give this ale around specialist and authority chosen by the A. M. A. to damn diathermy time.
 Here is where you grin. In the very next paragraph pr. Mock re. fers to the diathermy extirpation of infected tonsils as the salvation of uatients who need tonsil remov- al but are bad risks for the old . fashioned major operation by rea- son of myocardial degeneration (heart disease) or advanced tuber- culosis, or exophthalmic goiter.
 So if we take the little men who at present rule the A. M. R. as seriously as they take themselves we must believe that Q method which the public would shln as 1t would a rabid dog if the public knew of the dangers and compli- cations" involved Is the salvation of patients whose condition is too grave for the old Spanish customl
 Now, then, doctors and folks, the officiai spokesman of our great medical oligarchy has established his fitness to judge. Listen. then, to the verdict of this oracle on the pile question.
 ''In my experience there are
 few hemorrhoids that are suitable
 for operation in the ofiice.. !. l.
 The electrodessication method for
 removing hemorrhoids is an ad-
 vance over the Whitehead liga-
 ture, clamp and cautery opera
 tons, and the injection methods
 for the radical cure of hemor-
 rnoids."
 Physicians who do little writing and taking but much study and practice find that there are few aemorrhoids not suitable for cure ir the office, by the injection treat ment or by electrodessication. A pointed out here recently, in ont of the greatest hospitals in ths country the infection or ainbulanl treatment is now employed almost exclusively for hemorrhcids, and rarely Is any type of operation done on such patients.
 In my judgment the orthodos surgical attack on hemorThoids I an atrcclty to which only an unin. formed or misinfcrmed individuA' viii submit.

 Practical indeed are some of the new preparations on the New Years cosmetic counters. This is Q fine time to buy a few little extras that mean so much to your beauty.
 For instance, if you have to ex- pose your skin to cold weather and fey winds, you'll like a thick cream which is to be patted on with up- ward and downward strokes at night. Clean your skin carefully with soap and tepid water (never use hot water after exposure to cold) or with cleansing cream, then apply the cold weather nourishing cream.
 It's rather heavy (like vaseline>, comes in an attractive jar and is pale green in color. You can re- move 1t after some. has been ab- sorbed or, if you like, leave the surplus on while you sleep. It's good for chapped hands, wrists and knees, too.
 Another good item, made by Q cosmetician who specializes in min- eral products, including mineral bath salts and soaps, is mud face pack. It clarifies the skin, tends to reduce large pores and often will cure minor blemishes. Put 1t on (about 1-8 of an inch thick) after you have cleaned face and throat, let dry, then sponge of with cotton pads which have soaked in luke warm water. Cleanse again with soap and water or cleansing cream. Also new is an attractive con- pact, the top of which resembles Venetian blind. Containing dry rouge and loose powder compart- ment, of course, this is absolutely dust-proof. It can be purchased in gold and silver and in black and white enemale combinations.

members of the League will not be dissipated in mere vocal condemna- ton. Chemins intends, through the press and every other medium of propaganda, to wage an active fight against this new resurgence of hot jazz.
 For this purpose, MT. Cremins has hired a press agent, will issue handouts, and utilize all available media of propaganda in his fight.
 It is MT. Cremin's ambition to stop this jazz nonsense once and for all by the eventual establishment of an official government censor ship of obscene music, similar to the existing statutes that curb soiled literature. He points out that music has an emotional impact capable of demoralizing or uplift- ing the listener, comparable to that of the written word. The only difference is that the effect of evil music goes unnoticed because 1t is insidious, while the deleterious effect of bad books is obvious.
 Some time ago, Cremins requested the cooperation of John H. Sum- ner. head of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice, in ob- taining injunctions against the playing of music deliberately or- to arouse the very low est emotions" When the anti- obscenity crusader pointed out that there were no laws against synco- pated sensuality, CreminS deter

You may recall the furore that arose some time ago about the use of aluminium pots for cooking, and their effect on the human system. The claim was made that foods cooked in such pots would absorb some of the metal, which would be dangerous to the body.
 There is no cause to be concerned about this. The tiny amount of metal that is dissolved in the food has been found to be harmless, and in some instances it actually may be beneficial. And that is true not only of aluminium utensils, but those of copper. iron and tin.
 The point is that these metals. and others, are present in the hu- man body in minute amounts, and that they serve a distinct purpose. Copper, for instance, is needed with iron 50 best results may be had from the iron.
 Foods that contain fair amounts Of this metal include oysters, beef liver, mushrooms, entrants, split peas, pork, and lobster.
 If your daily diet contains occa- eional amounts of these substances, you will get all the copper that you ordinarily need. Sick persons, of course, may require extra amounts of such foods, and these should be nrescribed by the doctor.
 Manganese is another important metal. Foods that contain 1t are hllleberries, whole wheat, split peas, 9ayy beans, chocolate, beet greens. henanas, kidney beans, and chard.
 Other metals, found In smaller amounts in the body, are chro- 1nium, tin, silver, aluminium, cobalt, and nickel. Many of these are to be found in mil kand in various yeges fables. Ordinary amounts of these inetaIs, when taken into the body, ese promptly eliminated through the &festines.

 Grapejuice, also, may contain lead, if the grapes have been sprayed with lead arsenate.
