mitted there we're sensitive toes
in San Francisco that might be
trod.
The situation apparently rested
completely in the hands of Burton
j. Wyman, bankruptcy referee, who
on Wednesday is to hear reports
of lending, contractors and other
creditors. 1t is Wyman's job to
distribute what cash and other tan
gible assets of the $55,000000 show
is on hand.
What we hope is that we can
make an agreement with all sides
to keep the fair running" said Ray
Smith of the 1910 Exposition, Inc.
Smith didn't say how this could
be done or whether he had Roses
offer in mind. Banking creditors
already have gone over the sub
scriptions pledged and found them
short of the required $1,650,0O0
Contracting creditors disagreed with
the decision and argued for one
more try.
Officially, it was learned, Roses
offer has not been made formally
to the board of management but
to private individual. The board
considered it highly improbable that
Rose would make such an offer in
view of the fact there is an in
debtednesS of close to $4,000,000
from the 1899 show.
What is Rose going to do about
paying off the Indebtedness a
board member asked. IF the fair
is to continue those creditors will
have claim on the receipts. Where
could Rose make any money on his
investment?"
1t also was suggested that con-
cessionaires would view askance any
show that would become a personal
Billy Rose attraction.

Value Of MASSAGE
In treating Feet

Concerning the foot doctor in
Canada who treats all ailments bv
simple momentary manipulation of
the feet, an orthopedic friend of
NINE heard so much about. him that
he decided to go to consult him in
cognito. When he left home he was
scornful. He returned, if not COM
pletely converted, at least partially
convinced. He walked into another
orthopedic surgeons office and said
he would show HIM what the doc
tor did.
"Take off your Shoes" he in
structed.
"But there is nothing the matter
with my feet"
"That's what you think"
He grasped a foot in both hands
he had been an intercollegiate
wrestling champion-and moved it
violently in all directions. 1t hurt,
but the strange part was that al
though the doctor had not previous
ly been conscious of any dissatis-
faction with his feet, they felt bet
ter for at least five minutes.

Treatment of Burns

Is fannie ccid treatment recon-
mended for burns and achy?
Yes. in certain types of burns
compound solution of tannic acid is
very valuable, and the treatment of
choice. Prior to the introduction of
this treatment, in 1925, burns in
volving more than one-third of the
body surface were invariably fatal.
With fannie acid treatment lives
are saved with burns involving half
the body surface. To explain the
nothing less than marvellous life
saving qualities of tannic acid treat
ment, recourse must be had to the
concept of "white bleeding" = the
loss Of an excessive amount of Sc
rum from the circulating blood into
the exudate Of the burn. 1t has been
