Health Giving Water Bathing Cures
Too Little Used for Fever, Fatigue
BY LOGAN CLENDENING. NJ. d.


THE time of year has come
Il when we renounce the
lake. the river and the sea-
shore.
But we needn't renounce the
health-giving q U a Il 4 e Or
water treatment.
A prominent physician says
that he can prescribe all the
Interchangeable procedures

own bathroom Of any average
American home.
The use Of water in treat
ment is much neglected by
physicians.
This is unfortunate because,
by this neglect, they turn their
their backs on some of the
most useful m thods of
therapy.
Fever, fatigue and poor cir
culation are three common
symptoms that yield better to
water treatment than to
drugs; and nervous states-in-
somnia, neuritis. etc are
hardly less amenable. with the
advantage that with water
there are no diSsgreeable aft
ermaths.
Our modern hydrotherapy
began in wild and wooded

a deer limp down TO a clear
pool in the river TO battle its
wounded side.

This is the largest single fluores-
cent lamp lighting installation In
the history OF the industry. which
began in 1888 with a sale OF some
100000 lamps. The sales figure
jumped to 100000 in 1889 and to
100000 In 1910.
Already spoken OF as one Of the
greatest home and factory develop
ments which will progress out OF
Americas war effort, the industry
estimates total lamp sales for 1941
as approximately 21,000.000 with a
predicted 100000 for 1912.

Pacific where japan has dealt our

There Is a scattering of sharp

against officers presumed to have
been responsible for permitting
Japan to get away with a surprise
attack on our Pacific strongholds.

the Army had requested that the
$500, 900. 900 lend-lease fund be
eliminated, and that the money be
given the Army.
There is no thought OF abandon
ing lend-lease," he said. But when
a fund is appropriated specifically
for lend-lease, the Army or Navy
loses control Of 1t.
There is quite a lot OF discussion
about letting the War Department
have full control, so that they could
say how much should go for lend

House said that the program us and
