Perhaps this exp! is more things than our fondness for \atching bascball, football and boxing contests. It jain, also, our age-old tendency to be hero wor- shipers in other walks of life. Lindbergh, for instance, did something that none of us can never do, but that all of us, secretly, would like to do. He triumphed over darkness, lonelincss and fear. Quite | aside from the mechanics of flying, we know that we our- | selves could never do that. We should not have the nerve. | So we transfer our desires to Lindy's shoulders, and share in his victor Then there was a president named Roosevelt. He was the very thing that we would like to be and are not. He was outspoken, always. He feared neither man nor devil. He had a genius for defying powerful people, powerful forces, We—most of us, anyhow—are too submissive for our own good, and we know it. But Teddy—coulin't we identify ourselves with him, bare our teeth when he bared ; his, thunder when he thundered, rage when he raged? | We could and did; and Roosevelt, in consequence, was idolized by millions of people. It'll be a long time before the race gets over its hero worship. If the day comes when all men are brave, loyal, honest, farsighted and energetic, the Roosevelts and Lindberghs will lose their luster—just as Babe Ruth and Red Grange wouldn't excite a race of athletes. triumphs at second-hand. Extravagance and Airplanes Apparently we have reached a new age—the airplane age. The spendthrift son of the idle rich man uted to dis- tinguish himself by his lavish purchases of automobiles. He would coilect a “stable” of expensive cars, and we lesser mortals would gape and go “Ah!” at the mere no- tion of such extravagance. Now this has moved up a step. The son of an Iowa But the cards are { Until then, however, most of us will have to take our | tenona millionaire has just bought ten airplanes. An uncle is represented as “indignant,” and the Mississippi valley socialists doubtless will be able to make: something of it, To us, though, it simply indicates that the airplane age is fairly establisned. So England and America come to the point of equal- izing their navies, not on the basis of a presumed actual equal number of each type of fighting craft, which, were it possible, would lighten the task of the president and | the prime minister, but by the more complex method of establishing a parity whereby the inequalities in one type of craft offset the inequalities in another, % It really ion’t very ance. The experts cannot agree just how hair-weight equulity is to be calculated, ees Bae (SAS ceves ent that Promicr MacDonaid has made light of the give- gad-take on the margin ef difference that may remain when the form of parity has been mutually agreed on. He said to the British house of commons recently, and thus taid it likewise to the United States and to President Eoov: “We have determined that we shall not allow technical points to override the great public issues involved in our beinz able to come to an agreement.” President Hoover, through the American spokesman at Geneva, has cleared the way for arriving at approxi- mate parity through another declaration animated more by the great hope of bringing lasting peace to the world than by the principle of the pound of fles hs His declar- ation is: “My government has always felt that we need no exact balance of ships and guns, which can be based only ‘on the idea of conflict. What is really wanted is a com- mon-sense agreement based on the idca that we are going to be friends and scttle our problems by peaceful means.” So far both sides have exhibited the will to reach agree- ment and thus score another great stride toward the goal of a world of peace. This is the vital consideration of the discussion that is to ensue between the two great statesmen—that the >vofe: s of the two natisns show some tansible, some conercte, evidence of sincerit: The prebicm frem the point of view of the experts will be to determine what constitutes parity between the two mavies when the British and the American battleship strengths are ap) ely the same, while Britain has 365.000 tons of f: line cruisers to 155,000 in the Amer- iean navy, also a slight supeviorily in airplane carriers and an immense superiority of naval bases On this 3 are 310,000 tons of first-line destroy- ers to Britain's 241.000 c:d 67,000 tons of first-line sub- marines to Britain's 75,009, pius 170.009 tons of partially | antiquated second-line cruisers for which England has no equivalent.

It was time started that move. Consress is a body of conversation entirely surrounded by propaganda. Much of it is sound and for good public Purpoces.

Even ‘ientists, although they have ob- served some wonderful effects of an over-secretion or under-secretion of theseglands, are convinced that much more is to be discovered, and so far few seem to know just why these glands become upset from their normal activities when they are not disease. I am going to give you a series of four articles which will explain the cipal ductless or endocrine glands, and also some of the effects of fast- ing and dieting upon their action. Only a few years ago psychologists considered the various functions of the body entirely under the control of the nervous system, but within re- cent years it has been demonstrated that the growth of the body and a number of its functions are partly un- der the control of chemical Substances Produced in the body by various glands and tissues. Chemists have given the name of “harmones” to chemical substances produced in one organ and influencing another part of the body after passage through the blood or lymph streams. The ductless glands differ from others in that they have no exterior duct or tube to discharge their secre- tions. Their purpose was a mystery for many years until it was discovered that they placed some substance in the blood as it passed through and nourished them. ‘These glands in- clude the thyroid, parathyroid, thymus, pituitary, pineal, adrenals, spleen, coccygeal, carotid, and pos- sibly certain lymphatic glands. It has. also been discovered that some of the glands which do have ducts also pro- duce internal secretions. Among these may be mentioned the liver, | pancreas, sex glands, duodenal mu- cosa, and possibly the skin. In a few cases, such as with the ad- to discover the actual substances re- leased by these glands by finding the harmones in the blood as it leaves the glands. In others, however, the effects are readily demonstrated, even though the substances have not been discovered, because when the glands are removed or diseased they cease to exert their particular in- fluence and certain bodily changes oc- cur. AA eM OO tii avoa uw ones weueuuw COSTA RICA DISCOVERED On Oct. 5, 1502, Cnristopher Colum- bus discovered Costa Rica, the first spot in Central America where the Spaniards found the object of their solicitude—gold. The famous explorer left Cadiz in May, 1502, on his fourth and last voy- age to the new world he had dis- covered ten years before. Near the Island of San Domingo, a tempest put them in imminent peril and separated the five ships, but they came together again and on July 30 arrived at La Guanaja, the first place in Central America touched by Co- lumbus. They continued the voyage south- ward and encountered a furious tempest, in which they nearly per- ished. On Sept. 12, they doubled the Cape of Gracias a Dios, which the admiral so named because of the calming of the-tempest there. The ships were repaired and they continued the voyage, arriving at last —on Oct. 5—at the region which to- day is the Republic of Costa Rica. | Our Yesterdays returned _ yesterday G. A.

Glandular disturbances are prin- cipally of two types, either an ex cess or hypersecretion, or a deficiency or hyposecretion. In Monday's article we will take up the thyroid gland and the gonads. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Boils Question: R. G. asks: “What is | the cause of having large boils for nearly a year? How may I stop them?” Answer: If you have continued having boils for so long it is because your blood stream is full of morbid material which the body is trying to eliminate through the boils. A short fast followed by a good diet will check your trouble. Take two or three enemas daily for several weeks, even after the boils have disappeared. Gastritis Question: T. G. writes: “I would like to know if you advise the milk diet for severe cases of gastritis. If so, could I use any fruit or fruit juices with it, as it seems to agree with me better that way.” Answer: The milk diet is an ex- cellent treatment for any inflam- matory condition of the stomach or intestines. It is advisable to use a small amount of lemon juice, or the Juice of some fruit, with it, as this ‘seems to assist in the digestion of the milk and stimulates the flow of the gastric juices. Glucose Question: Reader writes: “Kindly | tell me if glucose is found in grape- fruit, oranges, or in the small fruits, or in what vegetables, and’ in what amounts.” Answer: Various forms of sugar are found in all of the fruits—both the so-called acid fruits and the dried or sugar fruits.
