The inflammation may be pro-

different kinds of germs as wett
as XlruSe&- -
One kind OF pneumonia which
has only been described in re-
cent years is known as atyplcal
pneumonia or virus pneumonia.
1t is thought that this condi-
tioD IS due 10 virus. that IS, an
organism so small that II can
pass through the openings Of a
porcelain filter.
Virus pneumonia is Ike iniiu-
enza in its symptoms and course.
At first there Is fever, which
varies from 100 TO l03 degrees
but lasts for several days.
This IS accompanied by pros
tration. sweating and coughing.
These syrntoms clear up and
there is long recovery period
during which the patient IS
weak and usually must remain
in bed There Is a tendency for
the SyTntouS 10 rccur.
IN EXAMINATION of these
j. patients, there are very few
findings.
This happens because the
eas of the lung which arc az
Ncted are small and are often
deep in the lung structure and
not near the surface.
Many times the patients
breathing is slow and Wheeling.
Coughing occurs in attacks
and rs rattling.
An X-ray examination Of the
chest Is often helpful in making
diagnosis. There usually is
great deal Of inflammation of
the windpipe or trachea, and the
larger tubes of the lung known
As the bronchi.
This disorder often resembles
ssthmatic bronchitis In the
Wheeling and noisy breathing
which II produces.

MY FRIEND Wilber docs not
vi believe Hitler is dead.


w believe Hitler IS dead
II is not because the wish is
father 10 the thought or any
thing like that. II is only be-
cause Wilber IS the father 10
the personification of gullible
old Peter ). Public through all
the ages.
He is one of those characters
who disregard logic and some
. times even proof in favor OF
rumor and myth, which | sup
pose he finds much more APP
pealing TO his imagination. You
will find the likes Of Wilber by
the millions.
He will accept any theory on
Hitler being alive that may be
presented to him if IT is dressed
up in fable.
His grandfather went to his
grave convinced that John.
Wilkes Booth was not killed
but was rescued by Sympa-
thizerS with the lost cause and
taken into the deep South.
where he died al an advanced
age as a successful plantation
operator.
WILBER'S father. a fine old
w gentleman of great iHtelA-
gence, held me spellbound not
long before his passing a cou-
pie of years ago. explaining how
the Lindbergh kidnaper. Haupt-
man, was not executed but was
spirited out of the Trenton
prison and sent 10 Germany.
though l personally witnessed
Hauptm a ms death lungeS

trio chair and, as | told Will

Wilber's father in kind tones as

IT IS Wilber'S type that makes

no one to listen to them they

Wilber's type that represents
reader interest in the spccula-
tive stories that are published
in the newspapers year in and
year out about old unSolvcd
crimes and mysterious diSap-
pearanccS.
WILDER would not now believe
that Hitler is dead even If the
