first in this country to choose such
a field. When he discussed his fu-
ture with older doctors they tried
to discourage him. The diseases
Of children are the speciality Of.
the general practitioner. There is
10 future IN pediatrics.'
This was at the beginning Of
the twentieth century. And since
then the speciality Of pediatrcs
has grown into one Of the most
scientific branches Of medicine. /
am inclined 10 believe that after
the speciality of diseases Of the
eye it is the most scientific. This
IS partly due to the fact that the
pediatricisn has such perfect con-
troll over his patient. II you pre-
scribe a diet for baby ina crib
it is very likely that the patient
will get exactly what you pre-
scribe. But il you prescribe for a
forty-year-old pighesd in a chair,
he may follow the diet and he may
walk down TO the corner and ca
what he darn pleases.
Doctor a Family Adviser
The public is beginning to IN
dcrstard that the pediatrician is
the family's adviser about the
child both in health and in sick
ness. Examinations Of a growing
child at regular intervals deter
mine whether il is developing nor
mally. The child's specialist
writes DR.. Abt, was finally recog-
nized as monitor Of the total or
ganism. Why 1t wouldn't eat car
rots and when it should start TAX

that could be put to him with as
much propriety as what would
stop its cough and how long it
should stay in bed. The world

ing, events in the life of an infant

SION and concern
The great triumphs Of preven-
tive medicine in children's dis
cases have been the elimination
Of the diarrhoeal diseases by the
use Of clean and inspected milk;
the prevention Of the nutritional
diseases by scientific diet particu-
larry the inclusion Of fruit juices
and cod liver oil to prevent scurvy
and ricketts,. and third, the preven-
ton Of contagious diseases by vac
-cines, such as diphtheria toxoid,
vhooping cough. scarlet fever,
typhoid and smallpox vaccination.
Overcoming Prelude,
None Of these things was ae-
complshed without fight
against greed and prejudice and
superstition. Dairymen back in
1900 thought pasteurizing and
certifying milk involved too much
expense.
Ii took long time TO overcome
the public's prejudice against in
jecting "serums" into a healthy
child. Yet what a difference it
made DR.. Abt made a return

the chlldrens hospitals he found

 AWARDED EGBLEMs

HEADQUARTERS, 1ITH AIR FORGE SERVICE COMMAND-The fast-growing corps of civilians working tor the Eleventh Air Force in Alaska received recognition for their contribution to the war eff fort recently in a ceremony at which POS were awarded emblems tor faithfuI service.
 The group so honored are em- ployees of the Alaska Air Depot at Elmendorf Field which services combat and transport planes and supplies the Eleventh Air Force in Alaska and the Aleutians.
 The commanding officer of the Alaska Air Depot, Colonel George N. Polk, Jr., personally congratu- lated each employee and told the group their work in the fast growing air depot was exemplary.
 In this total war it is now well known that victory cannot be " d by the man in uniform alone" tue colonel said, and you only necd look about you to see how many air force technicians, clerks and engine mechanics you have released tor the Held.

 Several onlookers were killed and dozens were wounded.
 The battle began when French patriots in the parade began firing at the rooftops from which French fascist militia had sniped at them. The crackle of gunfire quickly spread along the route from the Arc de Triomphe to the famed No tre Dame cathedral.
 The excited French said nazi sympathizers had hidden along the rooftops at strategic spots near the route of march to disrupt the par ade and perhaps to kill De Gaulle.

11TH AAF CELEBRATES 37TH ANNIVERSARY
 OF us. AIR FORCES

HEADQUARTERS. ELEVE N F Il AIR FORGE SERVICE COMMAND Celebrating the 31th anniversary of the U. s. Army Air F0rces, Aug ust 1, high-ranking flyers of the 11th AAF aurued out at EImendoGt Field to address the air fJree troops.
 The commanding general ol the Eleventh Air toree Service Com mand, Brig, Gen. Harry A. Johnson, was introduced by Col wan M. Palmer, commanding officer oI the airbase. General Johnson said it was General Billy Mitchell wno made the now famous statement "The AIeuUians are like a dagger pointed at the heart ot Japan.
 "The future will, of course, tell whether this prophecy oI General Mitchell will come true, General Johnson said.
 The general also briefly described the growth of the U. 5. air forces from the time beIUre the World War when they were a part of the Signal Corps with 65 flying o1Ii- cers and Ilz0 eullsJed men, down through subsequent stages as The Bureau of AeronautnIcs, The Ayia- tiOn service, The Air Corps and finally the U. $. Army Air Forces.
 The Army Alr Forces are now practically autonomous, having their own tour star general They are equal to and coordiuated with the ground forces and the Army service forces as part oI the oyer- all defense of the United States.
 Today, the general Concludeu, "ghe Army AIT Forces nave their full quota of men and ale over strength In combat craft auu crews. We are going ahead and fulfill our mission" ....s
 A youug combat pilot rom tue AIeutIaus, Capt. Worth E. ODeI told oI the lLLIe-kuUWu achieve ments ot the wInd-lasned 1lLn AAt in this tneater and It's eourIDuUIon to U. 5. air power.
 Our problems were weather anu distance, he saId. We nave licked both. We therefore probably do more instrument flying now than in any other theaLer oI operations
 The captain told oI some 'firsts for the I1th AAB. This was the first theaCer for P-3o's to fly in combat, and a P-3o shot its first enemy plane down iu the AIeutianS. The l1th AAt was the first to bomb Jap home soil from land bases. Some OI our own bases are now located on the first American soil to be liberated in this war fro il the Japs.
 Col George W. Polk, command ing officer ot the Alaska Air De- pot who has 27 years in the Army and is the oldest pilot of the 1Ith AAF added d touch ot humOr when he said he could remember flying army planes when they had exactly three instruments, an altimeter, 6 tachometer and an oil pressure gauge. Only the oil pressure gauge ever worked.
 Col. Polk said he thought most of the young men in his audience would live to see people riding in rockets. How they Il do it we don { know, but judging from what has already been developed in this war, they'll do it."

Life Swift, Brief ! States pr. Walker
Second Church Pastor Calls GIObaI War Most Brutal
 Interruption We Must Face These Days

life is swift and brief at the best and death is the final period, the ultimate interruption but for that very reason 1t may well be that in so far as we learn. to deal with the lesser interruptions of life, we will have learned how ot face this final challenge said Rev. pr. John O. Walker, Second Congregational church pastor, yesterday morning in his sermon entitled, ''Blessed In- terruptions".
 Dr. Walker said in part: He that is faithful in few things is made master of many. No one who has lived life nobly and well today need fear to face the morrow whether in this world or the world to come. If we can come to terms with what seems to be the lesser interruptions of life, we can gather strength and courage for the times and seasons when we have to face the major crises. Much of the best work of life has been done by making the right use of interruptions. In this art lies strength and victory.
 We ask too much of life if we think that we have only to lay out

a plan, to map a course, and all be well. Life is not as simple as that. Life must be lived worth. fly and well, in spite of altered planl and changing circumstances. The constant Interruptions must be com pensated for and used, if possible, tc further the large purposes and worthier end of life.
 We are face to face these days with the most brutal of interrup- tions, this terrible global war. The burden falls heaviest on the civilians in the occupied countries and in areas where actual combat is taking place but think of the millions oS young Americans, our sons, and brothers, who have had to give all sorts of cherished plans and ann bitionS, all their security and pro- tection, for the period of the erner. gency. Nine hundred and ninety nine out of a thousand are where they never expected to be, doing things they never expected to do. The vast majority are young men who are opposed to war as Q means of settling international quarrels but who see no other way out in the present than to fight this thing through to a bitter conclusion and final end. They must wonder, they do wonder I know, how they are going to come to terms with their fate, why they should be called upon to carry this burden.
 Everything in the world seems topsy turvy, all our values, all our ambitions, all our dreams, when we are in the midst of war. Charles F. Kettering, head of General Mo- tors Research Laboratories, describes war as inverse economies. In the manufacturing business the whole idea in peacetilne production is to make something the other fellow wants, make it up in the form and pattern that will suit him best, give 1t to him when he wants and needs 1t most. That IS peacetime produc- ton. Tn direct contrast the idea of wartime production is to make something that the other fellow. that is to say, the enemy, did not order and does not want, make 1t up in the most undesirable form. just as unattractive and deadly as you can make 1t, and deliver the finished article to the enemy when he least expects 1t and where 1t will do him the most harm.
 We'll, there is one thing this war must not do, 1t must not harden our hearts. There Is a great hue and cry in certain quarters these days about hating our enemies. There are some who would have you be- lieve that you cannot fight a war without hate. To refute that we have the example of the man who was president during the Civil war, or as our Southern friends insist on calling it, the War between the States. Abraham Lincoln fought a war without breathing fire and slaughter, without hatred and with no thought of revenge. Somehow the war made him more compas- sionate rather than less 90.
