The Navy Department assigned
Capt. Oliver M Read as American
naval and air attache at Ottawa in
another move toward closer defense
relations with Canada.
Capt. Read, now on duty at the
Navy Department, is the first to fill
the post. The Army assigned an at

earlier this year.
Capt. Read is a native of Beau

Secretary Hulls appeal for unity
IN support of hemisphere defense

administration officials are striving
to work out methods of acquiring
naval and air-base sites in this
hemisphere from Great Britain.
President Roosevelt announced re-

jackson gave the Roosevelt cabinet
yesterday an opinion on the legal

1t has been proposed in congress
sional quarters that Britains World
War debts to the United States be
cancelled or reduced in exchange
FOR 99-year leases on bases in New
foundland, Bermuda Trinidad and
other British territory in the New
World.
Already pending in Congress is an
administration proposal to increase
the lending authority of the Export
Import Bank and clarity its powers
to make loans to Latin American
countries to facilitate the handling
of their surplus products while
European markets are closed to
them by the war.
ESecretary Hull did not mention
my of these proposals specifically.
Text of HuIrs Statement,
The text of his statement:
Il feel constrained to re-empha-
size the view expressed upon my
return from the Havana conference,
that the possibilities of danger to
the American republics are real:
that a threat to any important part
of the Americas means a threat to
each and all of the American ma
tions.
The conclusion is therefore in
escapable that full and adequate
preparations for hemisphere de-
fense cannot be completed too soon.

G. B.: "Please discuss in your
column the amount of water or
liquid person should take in daily
and when lat meals or otherwise),
what purpose it serves, and what
relation it has to the amount of food
eaten; whether eating but two
meals, morning and night, should
limit the drinking in any way"
Answer-Water is an essential
food, the most essential of all. Its
first function is to replace water
loss. We eliminate about three pints
daily through the kidneys, about one
pint through the lungs, and one and
one-half pints through the skin.
This means that we need about
three or four quarts of water a day.
Much more can be taken without
harm and probably with benefit.
Water holds foods in solution and
aids their absorption. 1t removes
waste products and by evaporation
maintains constant body tempera-
ture in any climate. 1t makes little
difference whether the water is
taken with the meals or between the
meals. Even if the stomach is full
of food, the water flows out through
kind of trough, and does not mix
with the food.

bona fide attacks of acute appen-
dicitis. They were operated on
mostly because they had obscure
digestive or abdominal complaint,
or even such reflex things as head
ache, migraine, food sensitiveness.
Many were operated on for appcn-
dicitis.
Only two of t,.ese patients could
be said to have been cured. Twenty
four per cent of the patients were
decidedly the worse for the opera
ton.
Rare Disease
"It would seem that true chronic
appendicitis instead of being re-
garded as the commonest intra abb
dominal disease, should be thought
of as one of the rarest."
l think the lesson from this is
important, although it is not easy to
state it without creating some mis-
understanding in the layman's
mind. Let it not be supposed, as I
said above, that acute rrEendi"itis
does not recur. Ar: 3ruc that

appendicitis, THU .,rcdisposcs to
others so that a moro or less recur-
rent type of invalijSm may result

found cure in nearly 70 per cent of
cases.
But the typical chronic appendi-
citis case is one in which there is
really no reason to suppose that the
appendix is involved at all except
by making up a theory which would
make chronic appendicitis rcspons-
ible for nearly everything from con-
stipation to cyclic vomiting.
"Bucket-ShOp"
The vicious thing about the situa-
ton is that there arc some surgeons
who are willing to take advantage
of the layman's belief that the APP

She stopped abruptly, stopped
talking, and stopped walking. as

Before them, not many yards
away, Lola Montesa had suddenly

hands to her, face and was crying
as if her heart would break. She
had walked near to them before
she saw Jeremy and Gayle behold
ing her with CONSERVATION.
Lola, darling!" Gayle exclaimed,
in awe.
Lola turned quickly and almost
ran through the beautiful green
laurel and privet that grew in
masses along there. For an instant
Jeremy and Gayle looked at each
other. Jeremy was quite pale. Then
Gayle dropped her horses reins
and ran after Lola.
Jeremy dropped the reins and
ran, too, for little way.
When he came cut into the open
from the shrubhery, he caught a
glimpse of the girls entering the
green hedges that screened the old
swimming pool. He ran over there.
Then he saw that Gayle had her
arm around Lola and was leading
her still farther, because workmen
were busy in and around the
empty pool. Seeing them fee, Jer-

mother throws her chest out, and
her shoulders back. The baby will

Poor posture may be due to
trouble with the feet or legs, caus-
ing a tilt to the pelvis, and hence
a curved position for the spine.
Bow-legs and knock-knees should be

Don't let them run on. All babies

they begin to crawl and walk they

Strong muscles and strong bones
are the best guarantees OF good
posture. Exercise Of all the muscles
and joints should be carried out Sys-
tematically. With the baby in bed,
move the legs - knees, hips and
ankles. Lift him up by his fingers.

dicitis so l am a little ahead of DR..
Alvarez on this.
1t seems a curious thing that in
large clinics, it is a good deal harder
to persuade people not to have an
operation than it is to persuade
them to have an operation. A great
many people like to have operations.
1t makes them seem important and
this results in spending a great deal
of money and time, and also creates
false psychology.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
j. c.: "Can gallstones be cured
any way other than by an opera
tion?"
Answer-No stone inside a bodily
cavity can be removed by dissolve
ment. Before surgery became pos
sible these remedies, being the only
thing that mankind had, were tried
over and over again. There is no
dissolvcment for kidney stones or
gallstones or salivary stones. 1t
must stand to reason that any chem
ical strong enough to dissolve kid
ney stone or a gladstone would also
dissolve the tissue of the gallbladder
and the kidney.

Give Appendix Chance
It's Really Not Always Guilty
BY LOGAN CLENDENING, NJ. D.

Only FRIEND, DR.. Walter C. AL
varez, of the Mayo Clinic, Roches-
ter, Minnesota, has discovered that
there is no such thing as chronic
appendicitis. Out here in Kansas
we could have told DR.. Alvarez that
twenty-five years ago. Dr.. Arthur
Hertzler, the "Horse and Buggy
Doctor" has been preaching that
doctrine for some time.
DR.. Alvarez reports on 9S5 cases
of people who had their appendix
out for what was called "chronic
appendicitis" This does not mean

rondix out in the interval between

envy sensed that he would be ali il,
truder. Gayle could handle the sit.
uation, give Lola whatever COM
fort she would need; he could re-
strain his curiosity for the mo-.
ment.
Back, leading both horses, after
a minute or so, and wondering
whatever could have happened, he
came again to an opening along the
old pathway and saw Bill Bailey at
hand.
ooh, say, Bill! say, Bill"
Bill turned to face the inevitable.
Did you, ah, see Lola? Crying?
And running?"
Bill nodded, his face a study in
gloom. Il saw her. I'm the cause
of it, in fact"
Huh? You say-Ohw
you heard me, Tucker. 7 said
Pm to blame for the weeping my
self. I popped off at the mouth. I
thought knew what 1 was talking
about. You needn't look so shocked,
mister. He'll, Tucker, if you weren't
such panty waist that you can't
see what goes on right under"
Bill stopped short. His lips
frightened, and he took a deep
breath. Then he went on talking
before Jeremy could get in a word.
Il didn't mean that, Jeremy,
Overlook it, will you? 1 didn't mean
it at all. l apologize. I'm just
just worked up, is all. You're all
right. Matter of fact, I wish you'd
back me up against tree or some
thing and kick me half silly,
"Oh, say" Jeremy was greatly
distressed, staring at Bill. He held
out a hand as if in duplication.
Bill, old man, well, / don't I'M
derstand, but-see here, Bill, can't
1 help some way? I don't wish to
be-to intrude-but see here, Bill,
you're the only"
Jeremy had been touched by the,
tone in Bills voice as much as by
the actual words. Bill interrupted
him now to unburden his heart
some more.
I'm a low down, bungling, dim
witted heel, Tucker, and no foolin'.
I guess I've been cocky as hell.
Barging in here and making your
granddad give ME a job. Thinking
I could run everybody's business.
Trying to-look, Lola's not what
we thought she-what thought
she was. I'll bet a red hat on that,
now. I can look at person and
tell when they're honest"
The horses were quite forgotten
and so turned to crop grass idly.
Jeremy gripped the other young
mans arms in sudden feeling.
- say, Bill, don't know what
you mean. But I-see here, I won't
have you in trouble, if can stop
it, if I can help any. You're the
only friend I've got. guess you're
the only friend I ever had!"
Jeremy spoke SO forcetully tnat
Bill was quite taken out of himself.
The shy fellow plainly was expert
encing emotional disturbance as
great as Bills own. My friend! The:
only friend I've got. The only friend,
I ever had,
Bill looked at him closely.
Friend is a magic word, magic
concept.
Bill had half despised the bespec-
tacled Jeremy, had felt half jealous
of his popularity with Gayle. But
Jeremy had called him friend and
meant it!

lars, 1 guess. In banks. You-I-I-
