Battered Rail Tunnel Serves

Huge evidence that it was not as

The theater itself is the brain

When the order went out to
transform the tunnel into a thea

Treat Cattle For
Lice in Fall

EARLY FALL with its bright,
warns days is the best time to dip
or spray cattle for the control Of
lice. Treatment now will catch the
lice before their winter build-up and
it will also make it unnecessary to
treat the animals during cold winter
weather.
If the treatment is to be effective,
the insecticide must penetrate the
hair-coat and thoroughly wet every
part of the animals body. For this
reason, dipping is the preferred
method although spraying is satis-
factory if a high pressure spray is
used.
Cattle that are badly infested with
lice become unthrifty and if the in
festation is severe enough the ami
mails may die. Even though cattle
do not appear to have many lice in
the fall, it is best to treat them be-
cause Of the rapid increase in lice
numbers during the winter months.
Several materials are available
for treating cattle. Complete infor-

as three weeks before the shipping
date, fed hay, and gotten thoroughly
used to the new system of things.
This would be the ideal system for
shipping fever prevention but, un-
fortunately, it can seldom be worked
out that way, for the buyer will not
pay the bill.
The treatment of shipping fever,
once it has developed, is another
story. Ten years ago, heavy losses
were inevitable, but since then, any
veterinarian can save a very high
percent of the sick calves.
But prevention, up to loading time,
consists of early weaving and vac
cination, getting the calves used to
eating hay, care in trucking and
avoidance of -crowding in cars.
The rest is up to the shipper, to see
to it that the calves are properly fed
and housed on the trip. Even with
these precautions some cases of ship
ping fever may develop but, with any
sort Of decent weather conditions
enroute, there should be very little
trouble.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-A med
Iical mystery of a man whose once
Isilver-gray hair turned dark after
he took the hormone cortisone
was reported today.
He had suffered for months from
"a severe skin disease, and all his
hair had fallen out, making him
completely bald, said the account
in the New York Times.
Cortisone overcame the Skin
disease. Then, to the amazement
Iof his doctor and the patient, his
hair grew in again. In a few
weeks he had a complete head OF
hair, except for a bald spot in
the center that he had had be-

But this new hair was dark in
color, the color of his hair, beard
and mustache was no longer sill
Iver-gray, but largely the original
color of the mans hair 20 years
earlier. The man now is IA.
The hair has remained the new
color, although the cortisone was
stopped several months ago.
The mans physician admits he

can offer no explanation to what
he describes as 'first-class medi-
cal mystery His physician en-
Iphasized that no general conclu-
SlonS could be drawn from this
one case that cortisone would re-
store color in gray hair, or restore
hair in badness.
THE fact that the original bald
spot still remains shows that only
the hair that fell out as a direct
result of the dermatitis (skin dis
ease) was restored, whereas bald
ness caused by. other factors was
not affected"
Cortisone, a hormone from the
Iadrenal gland, has shown dra-
matte effects against arthritis and
ia long list of other diseases.
Animal experiments 10 years
Iago. the story added, indicated a
definite relationship between the
color of hair in rats and the ad-
renal gland. 1t was apparently
one of the mechanisms involved
in keeping hair dark, and not
gray, in young black rats.

HOSPITALS ON THEIR WAY

HOoPIIALS ON THEIR WAY
FINALLY, years of planning and talk, ground
was broken for the two hospitals, one at Christiansted and the
other at Frederiksted. The ceremonies saw the crvstalizaton
OF dreamS-dreams that modern structures would house hos
pitfalls tor this island, and that with it would come. at last the
equipment of which any modern municipality would be proud
For many, many years the medical skill has been with us. 4
tact OF which we may justly be proud.
EVERYONE LOOKS forward to the speedy and rm-
interrupted completion Of these hospitals. Ordinarily such
would not be the case, but experience has shown that MANY a
project in this place did not get the proper boost There might
have been spectacular beginnings, but before the end came,
there was delay and set-backs of every kind. Let that not be
the case with the hospitals.
THE NEW HOSPITALS, according to bIueprints, will
accommodate so beds, and have most of the modern emin-
ment which usually goes with todays hospitals. A couple of
features of the new hospitals will be Nurses quarters, with
rest rooms and recreation facilities. According to the plan.
most of the working space will be on one level, thus elnminat-
ing the need for traversing up and down steps. With the one
level idea, much equipment can then be rolled from one part
to another.
ANOTHER ADVANTAGE of the new hospitals is their
location. In Christiansted, the Richmond area, east of Orange
Grove, is an ideal location, under the circumstances. lust far
enough from town to avoid the typical city disturbances, yet
near enough to be easily accessible. And the same holds for
the Frederiksted hospital, located at
MERE MENTION Of a new hospital brings memories of
the late Governor Harwood, who returned from Washington
after one of his many trips there, and announced that a public
works program had been made possible through the appro-
priation of adequate funds. That dream has now come true.
PEOPLE of this island are grateful for this signif-
cant contribution. The new hospitals will make more effec-
tive the level Of medical services which we have had for a
long time. In this Dr.. Moorhead, Commissioner of Health was
perfectly correct, for if the equipment lags behind the level
Of service, the community somehow never seems to appreciate
the former to it's fullest.
