A number Of drugs are available
which, if used properly. will kill off
the amoeba and allow the colon to
return to normal. The one used
for the longest period Of time is
ipecac. Lately some new drugs,
vioforrn and carbasone, have been
introduced which are very effective.
All too frequently cases are all
lowed to go on to chronic stage.
The condition is not always severe,
and may manifest itself only in
slight rectal spasm. Some of these
cases have been treated for rectal
liberation which later are shown
to be arinoebic colitic. It is these
chronic cases which spread thu dis
ease, and today the public health
service and practicing physicians
generally are more alert than they
were to detecting such carriers.
!. 1t is to be hoped, and it is ex-
pected, that now that the danger
is realized that, the disease can be
entirely eliminated.

Vests Ace captured declarer's Q,

the K. In each case East won a
trump trick with the K, then West
took a diamond trick and East took
a club trick, no matter in which
order those suits were led.
It may not be clear to all why an

It must be obvious that if East

dummy's entire suit Of clubs, en-

real smallpox. People who were
vaccinated could move around
among their fellows and not spread
the disease.
Anticipates Development
TO obtain the virus which was
used for vaccination, Jenner advo-
Gated growing it on the skin Of a
calf: he knew it had to be grown
on some animal-calf or man-and
he thereby anticipated one Of the
latest developments in medicine.
Attempts to grow vaccine on
dead media, as we grow other
germs, have all failed. And that is
because we regard vaccinia as that
new kind Of germ, filterable
virus, and filterable viruses grow
only on living tissue.
The usual animal tissue used to
grow them is chicken embryo. They
open up the shell Of an egg that
has been incubated few days and
grow the virus on that-the virus
of the common cold, for instance.
Neatest trick Of the year has
been that they have discarded the
calf as a source Of vaccine lymph
and are now using the unborn
chick. When an egg has been In
cubated for about IA days, they cut
window in the egg with carbo-
rundum disk, inoculate the embry-
onic membrane underneath and seal
it up again with paraffin. Four
days later they open up one whole
side of the egg and there Is the
vaccine. An egg is easier to han
die than a calf, in case you don't
know it. The whole process Is per-
fectlr sterile. The chick vaccine
gives less reaction and produces
just as much immunity as the car
vaccine.

BASEBALL SPOTLIGHT PUBLICITY
By "NOsey"

Probably the most exciting game of the evening will be be- tween the Huskies and the Ham mon at the new school gym to- night, starting at 8 pm.
 Each team was the victor in the benefit games played during December. Some time ago they played seven inning practice game and the Hammon were de- feated by the Huskies 10 to 5.
 However. that wasn't the worst of it, because in the Hi School News, published in the Nome Daily Nugget, the school sports reporter kind of handed the well known raspberry to the Ham, mon team by accusing them of being ver-confident, and were
 therefore soundly trounced to the tune of 10 to 5.
 Good sportsmanship in all lin- es of athletics is just as important as winning games. The Ham, man team grinned and bore it.
 However, they will have their chance for revenge tonight when they meet the Huskies, who are described in some quarters to have developed what might be called as a little ''cockiness", af ter winning their last game with the Alaskan's by such a top-heavy score.

THERE IS NO WAR LUST IN THE HUMAN HEART

Men make war; it is said because the fighting in- stnct is ineradicable-as if some ghost of caveman days stalking through the dark corridors of every human heart, ready to come out swinging his club the moment the bars let down. Because of this we are told, never have permanent peace.
 It may be But if is, why do the ordinary sold iers of the world take advantage of every chance to fraernize with their enemies and substitute comrade ship for killing whenever their officers aren't looking?

The Alaskan team seems to be having the toughest time of all.
 They started the practice ses- sions with just enough men for a team, and they still have no reserves to count on. Most of their players have been togeth- CT for the past three or four years. They are one of the most unknown quantities. Sometimes their playing is cratic and at other times, hardly a run can be made off of them.
