What does a mustard plaster do?
Two Japanese, Hiro and Yamada,
have made an investigation. The
local reddening with reflex cir
culatory improvement was we'll
known but they wished to deter
mine if the effect was even more
far reaching. Their work was
done on rabbits but was so con-
trolled that results are applicable
to mankind.
They found that the mustard
poultice applied for a short time,
as is done therapeutically, in
creased the number of white blood
cells in the circulating blood. This
increase was prompt but subsidized
within day. Of the various types
of white cells increased, the type
that destroys germs pedominated,
and this type showed an increase
in ability to attack and destroy
germs.
Hiro and Yamada concluded
from their experimentation that
the poultice acted similar to I'M
specific protein therapy objection
into the body of such substances
as milk, etc. with stimulation of
body defenses against disease. In
light of this parallelism much or
most of what we have learned
about foreign protein therapy
would be applicable; namely, over
stimulation is dangerous.

history of this war-torn world
these words indicate the conditions
of human thinking. Perhaps never
more so than today. Never before
has the worlds population been so
unitedly intent upon preserving
peace by the adjustment of war.
Yet never before has the possibii-
ty of escaping war been less sure.
The most hopeful factor in a
most critical situation is the at
titude of the United States. Here
both people and government are
adamantly set to maintain the
peace as far as it is humanity pos
sible so to do.
Congress, which convenes this
week, will face among it's imme-
date duties that of enacting a neu-
trality law to replace the nearly
expired present law. This will seek
to prevent our country from tax
ing sides in any foreign war be-
tween nations or in any civil war.
1t will prohibit shipment of NUM-
tons of war or of goods that may
be transferred into such material.
1t will restrict trade and credit to
such warning peoples and may
even go so far as to prevent Amer
lean citizens from travelling on the
ships of nations at war.
The only expected controversy
over such action in congress will
come over the amount of discre-

tionary power given to the presi-
dent in enforcing it's provisions.
There are still in the congress
many legislators who grow jittery
over the possibility of the presi-
dent taking advantage of the sit
uation to seize more dictatorial
power.
"Peace, peace" we cry, when
there is no peace! For despite the
strongest of neutrality laws, if
just one belligerent in fit of mad
ness shall cause the destruction of
some American ship or the lives of
some American citizens, our peace
full tendencies will be forgotten
and we will plunge into war as
we have before.
In the meanwhile the greatest
danger lies in the Spanish conflict,
daily spreading its virus of hatred.
Even before this is read some un-
toward act of Loyalist or of Rebel
may furnish to Hitler or to Mus
solini the welcome excuse to force
the issue and bring reluctant ma
tions into world embodiment. If
and when this occurs it will re-
quire the most masterful efforts of
the staunchest defenders of peace
to keep us from another world
war.

THE STARS AND MOON

The stars that shine upon our head,
The stars that shine all night,
These stars must have a lot of joy
To have such friendly light.
The moon that shines above our
head
The big bright moon you see
This moon must be as big as the
earth,
But yet it seems as small as me.
The moon and stars that shine all
night,
They have such friendly light,
I love to sit and watch the stars
that shine all through the night.

The Mustard POultice
By DR.. w. D. Brown

At some time in life, everyone
either has had a mustard plaster
applied to some part of his an
atomy or has been the recipient of
such advice. In fact, the majority
Of adults have a skin burn, faint
or prominent, which is traceable to
the over-zealous application of
mustard to the skin. Any ailment,
trivial or severe, caused such
poulticing. In recent years, there
has been a decline in confidence in
the universally of this former
panacea. It has been relocated to
its proper place in the arma-
mentarium of the practice of
medicine.

And now we come to that bit

And now we come to that bit- ter rivalry between the Hammon and Commercials which has ex- isted, I've been told, for some years. The games which these two teams play are always filled with the keenest competition, and their playing is usually of the hardest and stellar character. The Hammon, hitting relentlessly thru out the entire game gradually drew ahead of the Commercials until they had a six run lead in the sixth inning, putting out three Commercial batters in their half of the seventh and winning without having to play their own half of the seventh. The game started with a snap with the Com mercials knocking in four runs right off the reel, and the Ham, mon coming back with two in their half. From there on the score was tied nearly every inn ing until the last of the fourth. The playing was tight and close on nearly every play, until the Hammon got to Commercial pit cher Lehman for too many runs. putting the game on the ice.
