WOMAN,S REALM
Your Children
HY OllYe Roberta RartOn

Having asked a doctor about thu amount of water required by cllil- dren, and the kind they should drink, I learned Q few things that may help the mother who thinks her baby doesn't drink enough.
 First, he explained, extra water taken by Q baby was more to form the habit of liking 1t than for the advantage of the extra fluid itself MIX and formulas contain just about enough water for the in- fant's needs, but he should learn to drink water by itself anyway, And, of course, he may be thirsty, he added.
 My next question was What is the best kind of water for babies and little children?"
 If the water supply of the city or district is known to be pure by analysis" he replied, "the children can safely drink 1t. But I recom- mend boiling and cooling all water for infants. They need purity to the utmost. I like natural water" he added, because 1t contains cer- tain elements and minerals that na- ture intended use to have. However, when there is any doubt whatsoever. or the supply is 8 bit heavily 'chlorinated' as a precaution against disease, then I advise the parents of very young children to search for other sources"
 Most Babies Drink Plenty
 "How much water should children in general drink2" was the eventual query.
 Usually they take what they need. but occasionally we find a child who needs more than he is drinking. However, this is not common, because his milk and vege- tables and fruits are full of water. It depends on his diet and what other fluids he is given. Sometimes 1t is the other way. If we find child drinking, say, three quarts of regular liquids, 1t needs to be gone water day, besides his foods and into. He is craving something he needs and is not getting or some condition of his system needs at- tention."
 Should a child drink water with his meals?"
 The doctor said that is the com- honest question about diet.
 "The baby or small child should be given water between meals" he explained. "Oh, a sip or two won't hurt, if the little one insists. But children in general when they are on regular regimen of three meals 6 day. shouldn't have more than a glassful at meal. And 1t should with the mouth full of food only be slipped slowly and not gulped half chewed.
 T would accent the chewing of food slowly and thoroughly more than the water part of 1t. Too much water with meals fills up the stomach and takes away appetite. And 1t also interferes with milk drinking or other nourishing bev- erages that the mother prepares"
 "Of course you believe in water boiling for the whole family, dur ing flood time or drought?"
 Certainly. Or 8 careful check up on over-chlorinated water, which may occur at such times. Chlorine carefully used by authori- ties to keep supplies safe, is ir1no- cent enough and used ever where. But occasionally an over lender stomach rebels at too big dose Boiling won't change this. I would, however, boil all water at emer- gency times or where the water, as in springs and wells, is not scien- tifically analysed. During epidem- ics I always advise boiling water as an extra precaution.",

ONE GOLD" AFTER ANOTHER
 One M. Hajek, named as the greatest authority on rhinology by Dr. Alice V. Mackenzie, in an in-
 formative, practical paper on Gold
 in the Head" in the January, 1887,
 issue of The Medical World, sounds like guy I'd like to. smoke a pipe with --- but I do not guaran- tee this. There may be a catch in 1t. For all I now, M. Hajek may be Mary or Min Hajek-incider1- tally bad cess to all who 50 con- ceal their gender. I have to address letters to some of 'em every day. I give them al lthe benefits of the doubt by using the title Mrs.
 Mysterious Hajek, 1t appears, maintains that 1t is impossible for one to pick up cold-producing germs in the fresh cold air where they do not exist; he contends that "colds" are spread from person to person, just like influenza or other a cute infectious fever. Can any ono deny the logic of Hajek, injuries Dr. Mackenzie rhetori- cally. Here I interrupt for mo- ment to say my, my, q hundred thousand doctors will deny 1t and a hundred million laymen wil lpro- nounce poor Hajek as nutty as l am. At least every one over fifty or sixty will--if that many doctors and laymen live that long.
 Being unaware when she wrote the article that l should indulge In my favorite pastimc of long-dis- tancc heckling, Dr. Mackenzie jm- perturbably pursues her discussion. No, she answers, you can't deny it's logic. yet we find people catch ing colds" from exposure to cold air, paradoxical as iti may seem.
 Paradoxical as it may seem to whom, for clearness sake? Nothing paradoxical about 1t to the hun drcd thousand old fogy doctors and the hundred million old fossil lay. men who believe they contract ac- tual illness from exposure to cold fresh air. The fancy that people acquire any such illness in that way is paradoxical only to queer birds like Molly or Mat Hajek and me. But we don't mind keeping o9,998 other docs and 100000, 900 laymen waiting while Dr. MacKen- zie explains how come people har- bor such belief. She mentions those who tell how they caught 1t from another member of the fam- fly, who in turn caught 1t from some one else. But others declare they take cold every time they go out of doors without q hat or coat, and instead of having one cold 8 season they have half a dozen or more, and invariably from just such exposure.
 Yes. indeed, and that brings up sad memories. Lost one of my best subscribers once shortly after we went to the mat in his sanctum over this very question, and was tactless enough to throw back my head and haw-haw at the old gents earnest insistence that he never failed to take cold If he even walked a few blocks on damp without his overshoes on. As usual laughed first and thought of the importance of over- shoes in commerce later.
 Now Dr. Mackenzie suggests that these sensitive old-timers really catch cri in some form to begin with. and all tho other al- legged fresh colds" they have through the season are but flare ups of the original infection which though apparently cured. has been slumbering in one of the sinuses perhaps. She points out that proper treatment of the sinus complication generally stops this "cold habit"

direct presidential primaries as a
swifter remedy than amendment of
the Constitution.
COolidge's Remark.
Arising again in the Coolidge ad-
ministration, the question of a third
term drew another emphatic state
ment from the White House. After
his announcement on August 2. 1927:
81 do not choose to run for President
in 1928" Coolidge wrote the Republi-
can National Committee on December
5, 1927 that there would be no change
in his position and urged the party
to proceed with selection of nominee
from among the available candidates.
With talk of third term once more
being heard. President Roosevelt to-
day faces the same problem with
which many of his predecessors have,
dealt. Like Coolidge, he made his
first public comment on the fourth
anniversary of his Inauguration. Mr..
Roosevelt's victory dinner speech of
March 4. 1887, however, was not ac-
Lepted as a final withdrawal from the
1910 campaign, and the phrases used
in the speech are being contrasted
with the statements of former Chief
Executives, on the eve of the special
session
"My great ambition on January 80,
1941," the President said, sis to turn
over the desk and chair in the
White House to my successor, whoever
he may be, with the assurance that I
am at the same time turning over to
him as President Nation intact,
Nation at peace, Nation prosperous,
a Nation clear in the knowledge of
what power it has to serve its own
citizens Nation that is in position
to use those powers to the full in order
to move forward steadily to meet the
modern needs of humanity-a Nation
which has thus proved that the demo-
cratic form and methods of national
government can and will succeed.
And in these coming years I want
to provide such assurance. I want to
get the Nation as far along the road
of progress as I can. I do not want
to leave it to my successor in the
condition in which Buchanan left it
to Lincoln"
Endorsements of the President for
reelection have continued since the
victory dinner speech, although many
of his friends, as we'll as his political
opponents, predict he will not be
candidate.
In both camps, further statement
is awaited at Washington today by
party leaders who recognize that the
timing of the Presidents announce
ment will have an important bearing
upon the approaching session of Con-
gress and the 1888 and 1910 elections.

RAD|UM PURCHASE
CONSIDERED HERE
Dr.. Parran Names Group to
Study Procurement for
Cancer Treatment.

Practibility of purchasing as much
as IS to 20 grams of radium for treat
ment of cancer patients was discussed
by the National Advisory Cancer
Council yesterday at its first session
The suggestion led to appointment
by DR.. Thomas Parran, jr.. surgeon
general of the Public Health Service
and ex officio chairman of the coun-
Gil, of subcommittee to study and
report on the feasibility of such a
project. as well as all physical agents
now in use or in the process of de-
velopment for the diagnosis and treat
ment of cancer.
The largest radium bomb now
being used for medical purposes is one
of eight grams in French institu-
ton. Before bomb of double that
size could be put to practical use in
the treatment of single patient, the
council was told, means would have
to be provided to prevent or minimize
the skin burns which occur when such
a large amount of radium is used for
this purpose.
Members Of Subcommittee.
Named on the subcommittee were
DR.. Ludwig Hektoen, executive direc-
tor of the council; DR.. Arthur H.
Compton, University of Chicago ply
siciS; DR.. James Ewing, cancer re-
search director at New York City
Memorial Hospital. and DR.. Francis
Carter Wood, director of the Crocker
Institute of Cancer Research at Co.
lumbia University.
During its all-day session the coun-
Gil visited the 45-acre tract of land
beyond Bethesda, Md, on the Rock
Vile highway, where buildings to
house the National Cancer Institute
and other facilities of the National
Institute of Health are to be erected
with funds authorized by Congress.
The members were luncheon guests
of Mrs. Luke I. Wilson, widow of
the late Washington business man
who donated the land for this purpose
to the Public Health Service.
Plans Being Prepared.
Architects of the Treasury De-
partments Procurement Division are
preparing plans for the three build
ings, preliminary to advertising for
bids for the construction work in the
near future, the council was told.
The structures will serve as a nucleus
for a projected vast new national
research center for work designed to
reduce the cancer menace.
The council also voted to encourage
cancer research by private and public
patrologists, medical practitioners, ra-
biologists, chemists and others by
sponsoring fellowships and developing
new training facilities, and decided
that grants in aid shall be made, as q
matter of policy, to specific projects
instead of loosely designed programs
whose continuation is in doubt.
The group also approved the launch
ing of field study to determine the
scope and nature of facilities for
diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
The councils next meeting will be
held November 81, it was decided.
