traordinary powers that have been
granted to Millsboro by the state. He
outlined the duties OF each official,
explained various terms and answer
ed many questions asked him by
members of the class. So simple and
clear was the whole subject made
by this able speaker, that everyone
present felt that it was an hour we'll
spent. Mr.. Wood is to be congratu-
lated on being able to obtain the ser
vices of this busy and efficient execu-
tive, for 1t is splendid to be able to
produce a man like Mr.. White to ad-

RONCE DE LEON had dream!
1t was a vision of men never aging, or
women staying beautiful for three-score and ten

its beginning to it's ending.
The world has laughed at this for hundreds OF

From 1881 to 1882 he was an inferno in the Allie

\ IAN seeks eternal youth. Vainly per-
M haps, but with certain reason. 1t is
not. as musical comedies would indicate,
to retain the lush romance of too little
knowledge and too few years, but to keep
the mental and physical vigor which
makes of living an enjoyable experience.
History tells us that even Pope Innocent
VIII had the blood of three young men
transfused into his veins. 1t was the be.
lief of the physicians that this might
impart certain youth to his older body,
SO that the fine mind of the Pope might
he saved for the world. Death from an
other source followed, and the expert
ment seems never TO have been repeated,
but today the medical world turns a spot
light upon intelligent sensible mainte-
nance of youthful activity. Five Star
Weekly offers you the opinion of one OF
the leading medical authorities in the
West on this important subject, DIR. Vic.

of the internationally famed DIR. Z.

surely will not be damaged as long as it
keeps its own ranks clean and fit.
Conservatism surely is more than
needed in medicine. Whoever has wit
messed, or knows by tradition, the many
disappointments that followed some ap-
parently great discoveries, some brilliant
ideas, will be only too glad to see that
our own Jupiter tonans," supported by
the mighty demigods and big bosses of
American Medical Science is, so to speak,
from Missouri, and wants to be prop
erly shown before putting the stamp of
approval on anything new and out of the
ordinary.
Thus we come to Steinach's operation
which consists in the severing and ligat-
ing of the thoroughly isolated vas de-
ferens.
We must admit that, unfortunately, 1t
is not an immutable law that lasting
over-production of the so-called intersti-
tial internal secretion cells results in
lastingly increased internal secretion, but
we are justified in supposing that such
an increased internal secretion cannot
influence organs and their substratum
that are in no condition to react, and that
is the reason why the effects of a Stein
ach operation are greatly enhanced by
proper opotherapeutic support of the
other glands of internal secretion.
rTEINACHS experiments were first
= made on rats. Senile rats, on which
the operation was performed. showed re.
newed vitality. moved around full of ex-
citement and were attracted by their
female mates, and they were able to
procreate. Their fur, which had become
brittle and shabby looking, became again
smooth and glossy, and their appearance
improved in every respect.
In consequence, with the unforgettable
kindness and eagerness to teach, Stein
ach showed me all his important expert
ments and demonstrated his operation
on various cases at the Auersberg Sani-
tarium.
Though some medical authorities in
Vienna did not seem to agree with him,
| decided at once to go home and use
the Steinach method on all suitable cases.
Unfortunately the masses of the people
cannot, under the present conditions,
avail themselves Of the benefits of the
Steinach operation and not even of other
organotherapeutic remedies for reactiva-
ton. The costs, in spite of all altruistic

DR.. Vecki recommends no rabbits foot for
fighty folk magic trickery, but sound up

He recommends no kttenish pranks or silly
foolishness about looking 20 at the age OF 80,

some extent hamper progress, but we can and
must ignore him. because we cannot afford to
waste our time.
Looking at the problem from selfish stand
point, surely it would have been better If the
medical profession had never undertaken to de-
nounce and to fight the various cults and ''isms,
for hardly is one of them down and out than
two new ones spring up.

to know what kind of a physician he should
have, and if there are people who think that the
poundkeeper is the man for them, they really
ought to have him. And today one might argue

by uneducated followers of some impossibly
stupid system, let them. The medical profession

to endow a reactivation clinic, then larger
masses of people could be benefited.
The reactivation treatment should be given
to people regardless of age at any time that the
necessity is being felt by them or discovered by
their physician.
We know that we are not able to fight death
itself, but we must never cease to fight senility.
A BUSINESS woman SO years of age, be-
~ came listless. easily tired. forgetful, losing
interest in her business, in her social life. Her
skin became muddy looking, her neck scrawny
and wrinkled. After a six months treatment she
took up horseback riding, took renewed in
terest in her business, frequented her old friends
and contracted a suitable marriage about IA
months afterwards
Her skin had cleared up and improved in every
respect; the wrinkles disappeared; her eyes re-
gained their brilliancy; and she easily looked Is
years younger than when she came under treat
ment
The reactivation treatment for women is quite
different from that for men; anatomical differ
ences are such that no operation Is indicated.
A banker, Sc years old, married, underwent a
Steinach operation IL years ago; he is still active
in his bank, is very happy with his wife, and
lost all traces of psoriasis that plagued him from
his early youth.
It would be tedious to go into the details of
the large number of reactivation treatments. The
results are invariably the same. The appearance
of the patient improves in every respect; and
while it is impossible to make shiek out of an
old man, or transform an old woman into a
flapper, the bodily capacities the personal am
btion and energy are invariably improved.
You may say that am an optimist, and l am
glad If am Optimism hedged in by cautious
conservatism has done well by many. If every
body were an optimist, there would be no more
wars, no one would begrudge his fellow man a
few cheerful moments, nor to any old man his

Cardinals Spilled
atHutchinson 24-O
STEELE, DISCHER HURT
IN BATTLE; STRING
BREAKS AT 16

The 16 game victory string of
the Redwood Falls Cardinals was
snapped and snarled Friday night
when powerful Hutchinson
team made every break count in
a "a to 0 victory over the Red
Wave, the most one-sided defeat
handed Redwood Falls team in
many seasons.
A good sized delegation of Red
wood fans saw their favorites,
weakened by ir.eligibilities and in
juries battle valiantly through
four quarters only to be beaten
down by the battling Hutch squad
which had its heart set on victory
and was muffing no opportunities.
Four times Hutchinson crossed
the goal line, twice in the first
period on a As yard run and
again on an eight yard dash at
ter an intercepted pass had given
them the ball close to the goal. A
"a yard run accounted for the
third touchdown early in the third
quarter and 81 yard run in the
last stanza set the stage for the
final push. 49,
Steele, who was shifted to the
backfeld when L. Aarthun be-
came ineligible during the week,
was carried from the field during
the game with what was at first
believed to be serious chest in
jury but he was back on the side
lines before the game was over.
