(Offielal City, State and County Newspaper) ; Where Science Can’t Go It used to be said that a fool who knew he ‘was a fool was really no fool at all, but a wise man. , Similarly, it seems that the more modern science learns, the more it realizes that it knows very little, after all. To be sure, there are pseudo-scientists who seem to feel that they have tacked the uni- verse neatly down on their dissecting tables and have laid bare most of its secrets. But scientists of the first rank—the Millikans, Pupins, Bantings and the rest—are free to ad- mit that each advance in knowledge brings call! And with this once constant threat of an unannounced visit from Mrs. Pecksniff down the street and this incentive for domestic tidiness and extravagance in household fur- nishings removed, is there not grave danger of that predicted deterioration of the home? Motoring has usurped the place of the “af- ternoon call” as the great Sunday pastime of the nation, Gaining on Disease i The leaders of the medical profession still have a number of problems to solve; but over many of their old enemies they are asserting an ever-increasing mastery. Figures issued by the United States Public Health Service show that 1927 saw the typhoid fever rate sink to a lower figure than ever be- fore. In that year there were recorded only 26 cases of typhoid per 100,000 inhabitants—less than half the number reported in 1917. There are many diseases against which med- ical science at present can do little. But it is becoming apparent that the dread typhoid fever is one of those maladies that eventually can be made practically unknown. The Canal Almost Outgrown A New York engineer, addressing the New York Chamber of Commerce, predicts that the Panama Canal either must be enlarged in a few years or duplicated by a second inter- ocean waterway. “The Panama Canal now,” he says, “has al- most reached the point where it cannot handle the trade passing through it.” This is interesting. It was only a few years ago that calamity howlers were calling the big canal a useless burden, asserting that it was not being used enough to justify its existence. One hopes that they heard this engineer's speech. | Editorial Comment | WELL, HERE'S ONE RUNS PURTY APPEARANCE AND HEALTH » according to his stand- ard, desires to make a good personal appearance.
