An Optimist on Machine Age If the development of America’s machine civilization hhas ever bothered you, you might do well to spend a little time with Michael Pupin's little book, “Romance of the Professor Pupin, one of the foremost scientists in the country, undertakes, in this book, to answer those Euro- pean and domestic critics who believe that this nation, because of its dependence on machines, is giving way to a sordid, soul-killing materialism. The whole development of the machine, from the in- wention of the steam engine down to the latest refine- ment of the radio, is nothing at all—says Professor Pupin but the development of man’s understanding of nature. Every machine that is used is simply an adaptation on the part of mankind, of some natural force that has al- ‘ways been in existence. “The invention of the steam engine,” ‘he writes, “gave man a crude copy only of the cosmic engine. The mind of man, and his awkward hand, can never do more than make a crude copy of nature's subtle ways. The energy of the flame under the boiler of the engine is a morsel of the solar energy stored up in the carbon of nature's scrapped machines—wood, coal, oil. The flame is a tiny terrestrial offspring of the solar flame of the cosmic ‘This truth, as Professor Pupin sees it, holds good all along the line. t “Moving matter in the steam engine and in its off- ; spring, the gas engine, and moving electricity in the elec- / trical machines, supply the propelling force to our modern civilization,” he says. “The energy of their mo- tion feeds upon the energy morsels which solar radia- tion brought from heaven to earth, and which the earth stored up as coal and oil in the guarded depths of her i “These stored-up treasures waited millions of years ‘Until nature's lessons taught man how to use them.

It would be fearsome to learn that our senators were really in danger; but pending the confirmation of such a suspicion, we can at least sit back and enjoy the turmoil. | Editorial Comment | The Next Waterway Event ? (St. Louis Globe-Democrat) ! The next important development in the waterway history of the continent will be the dedication and open- ing of the new Welland canal, on a date yet to be fixed, during 1930. It has been more than fifteen years in building and its total cost is placed at $15,000,000, about the cost of canalizing the Ohio and a third of the cost of the Panama canal. Its depth is twenty-five feet and its locks will accommodate the very longest and widest types of vessels. In making freer communicetions between Lake Ontario and the Upper lakes possible, alone, the value of this costly engineering work for overcoming the 362-foot fall in the Niagara river will be very great. Toronto al- ready is expanding its grain terminals and all around the Ontario ports are preparing for new business. Its most important effect, however, will be in bringing nearer @ decision as to the St. Lawrence route to the sea. From the first, this Welland project has been looked on os @ link in the greater St. Lawrence project. In fact, if the United States and Canada enter an equal Partnership in constructing that route, the cost of the Welland canal is to be subtracted from Canada’s share of the entire cost of the sea route, leaving only a com- paratively small sum for her to meet.

No doubt many doc- tors have given up the use of diet treatment principally because these old theories have not been found to be helpful when applied to the pa- tient. Thousands of books have been writ- -| ten about diet and food, but so many have been only copies of other books alread published with very little ad- ditional Lith’ gleamed from ori- inal research. a To the earnest searcher after truth, theories about any subject are of course interesting; but these theories so often must give way to the result of practical experience! Even physi- cians are apt to fall into the habit of teaching, parrot-like, what they read if the books are only put out by es- tablished medical publishing com- Panies, If the original thinker and observer attempis to publish a book with new ideas, such a book is immediately frowned upon by the so-called au- thorities whose sole claim for being called “authorities” lies in the fact that they teach, and often believe, worn-out and moth-eaten theories. The radical is always the one who in his earnest zeal pushes the car of Progress farther up the hill, while the conservative thinker is no doubt of equal help in finally blocking the wheels and holding what has been gained. All the real work of achieve- ment is, however, done by the revolu- tionary mind of the scientist who is looking mostly for practical truths. In the realm of food science the most noteworthy contributions have been made by laymen or physicians not recognized by the orthodox medi- cal societies. Here is a short list of euthors whose writings haye never been officially recognized. Drs. Dewey, Tanner, Hay, Hazard, ales, Tilden, Alsaker and Brooks; also Upton Sin- fadden, Milo Hastings, Arnold Ehret, Haskell and Carrington.

I have three large brown patches or discolorations on my face which have just recently developed. They are getting larger, and are rough on top. Can I get rid of them?” Answer: Such discolorations usual- ly come from some form of acidosis in which the coloring matter is irre- gularly distributed. If this is the cause of your trouble, you can stop any more discolorations from form- ing by adopting a well balanced diet eases, so it might be well for you to have a Np ty to find out your true condition. Many people who think they are well really suffer from some disease which is not man- ifested by any unpleasant symptoms, (Ether and Gas) Question: Mrs. M. D. writes: “My doctor wants to put me under ether for a rupture operation, and under gas for tooth extraction. Would he Suggest either if he thought that I had any sort of heart trouble? He examined me but did not say any- thing about it. My heart never both- ers me and I live four flights up. I would like to get rid of the rupture and the tooth, but I am afraid of the ether and the gas.” - ‘Why don’t you ask your doctor about it? Many physicians Prefer ether for certain operations, and sometimes gas or a local anes- thetic for other kinds of operations. Experience has shown that the same kind of anesthetic should not be used in all cases, even with patients who have no heart trouble of any kind. Ask your doctor about it and he will no doubt be able to explain this to you so that you can understand his reasons for using the anesthetics which he expects to use in your two operations.
