AMONG the hardest working
Of the body's organs are the kid
ncys, and the work they do is all
important. One of their chief
duties is to act as a filter. Just as
the lungs serve to supply the blood
with oxygen, so the kidneys help
to keep the blood always pure.
Here in the complicated and
elaborate filtering plant of the kid
neys, the body gets rid of its chem
ical wastes, the toxins Of fatigue
and the harmful by-products of
tissue destruction and repair,
which if not eliminated, would act
az fatal poisoEs.
Vital Function
It is this vital function of the
Kidneys which makes any disease
or infection of their tissue such n
hazardous matter when not prop
erly cared for.
Germs have three avenues of ap-
proach to these important organs.
They may pass upward through
the bladder from outside the body.
They may oe carried to the kid
ney3 through the blood stream or
they may be carried in the tissue
fluid or lymph, through the lymph
attic channels from nearby organs.
If infection occurs in the kid
ncys the usual course of events is
for IL to pass downward into the
bladder through the ureters which
arc the tubes which connect the
kidneys with the bladder.
The part of the kidney where
the urine collects before it passes
out of the body is known rs the
pclvis of the kidney.
If The pelvis becomes infected,
the kidney itself also is affected.
II the infection is mild, complete
healing may take place without
any damaging aftcr-effects.
Severe Infection
However, if the infection is
more severe, soaring of the kid
ncy frequently occurs. This scar
tissue contracts as does scar It's
sue in any part of the body, and

Hearings have been concluded

soon. 40 r 'DG r.

BROADENING of the Social

Miss Ruth Lygren of the New

tions. DR.. Zook, of the American
Council on Education, asked that
school teachers be included. This
is something on which the teachers
should express themselves, as their
own present retirement system is
at stake.
THE statement of sixteen House
L and Senate members urging
that the budget be balanced, and
voicing their belief in "a sound
fiscal basis for the country has
stirred up quite a discussion. Divid-
ed evenly between the two political
parties, these members have served
notice oi an effort to reduce gov
