HEALTH FOR ALL Streptomycin

 fungus, has the greatest prom ise of any known drug in the treatment of tuberculosis, yet even it cannot be considered a cure for pulmonary tubercu- lois.
 Scientists who have been studying the effect of strepto- mycin on tuberculosis patients state it is too soon to draw definite conclusions about it's results. Further research is necessary. Meanwhile, they point out that the drug cannot be considered substitute for proved methods of treatment and strongly advise patients who are making normal prog ress to continue with the proved methods of treatment without resort to the drug.
 The tubercle bacillus, the germ which causes tuberculosis, is one of the toughest germs scientists have ever tried to conquer. Experiments have been conducted for many years in an effort to find a drug which would kill the tubercle bacillus without injuring man and also to find an agent which would create immunity to the disease.
 A degree of success has been obtained with streptomycin in that the germ has been killed in test tubes and even in guinea pigs. The story is different when it comes to killing tuber- cle bacilli which have invaded man. There has been no evi- | dence that streptomycin, the most hopeful drug discovered to date, would kill the tubercle in man. It seems to have the effect of suppressing tubereu- losis but not of eradicating 1t Medical authorities who have l been studying the effect of streptomycin state that 1t is not a substitute for tried methods | of treatment. When used, it should always be in conjunction with bed rest in a hospital o1 sanatorium. It must also be given over a long period, usual ly from four to six months Patients who are making nor nal progress without resort to the drug should continue that treatment and not expect a miracle. Streptomycin is not a miracle drug.
 The distribution of the drug is under the supervision of the Civilian Production Administra, tion. Recently, it has been available in larger quantities than ever before and so wider distribution has been permitted The price has also been reduced Nevertheless, it is an expensive drug to use in treating tuber. culosis because of the quantity which must be given.
 It cannot be over-emphasize6 that until more is known about this drug tuberculosis patients

sank like rock" Jackson said.
With only one paddle in the
boat and 10 miles from their
base the two men were faced with
the problem of rowing the boat
against the tide. But Jackson had
an idea.
They rowed the craft to the
creek bank and Jackson found a
small piece Of cypress root about
10 inches long and 2 inches in
diameter. II used to do a lot of
whiting, maybe l can fashion
a propeller" he told Rich.
His companion scoffed at the
idea, but Jackson took his four
inch pocket knife and started to
Whittle. About an hour and half
later Jackson had fashioned a
propeller from the cypress root.
The friend still scoffed at the
idea and laughed when Jackson
fitted it to the shaft. The motor
was placed in position and crank
ed up. Something was wrong, the
boat began to back up. Jackson
had placed the propeller on back
wards.
Rather than risk the chance of
breaking the whitfield prop,
Jackson reversed the motor and
the 10 mile journey was under
way. 1T only took us two hours
to make the trip" he said, "but
that wooden prop sure saved our
backs"
Yesterday afternoon the cypress
prop was still attached to the
motor and was none the worse
for wear after the trip.
