ACIDS IN BODY MAKE HEALTH EDUGATION URGED BY BALLO School Superintendent Sees Instruction on That Line as Highly Important. Health education is one of the most fmportant subjects in the educational program of foday, Superintendent of Schools Frank W. Ballou told Dr. Lindsly Willlams, managing director of the National Tuberculosis Asso tion, in response to his request for statement concerning health educa tion in the District public schools. A copy of Dr. Ballou's letter has been sent to all school officers at the rve-| quest of the board of directors of the Washington Tuberculosis Association. Text of Ballou's Letter. Dr. Ballou’s letter follows: “I believe that health education is one of the most important subjects in the educational program of today. The assumption in the past that health in struction should and can he success- fully carried on in the home has proven in large .mgasure to be erro- neous.

By Science Service BERLIN, October 16.—It is the in- herent fault of man himself if he is poisoned by wood alcohol. Dr. H. Leo, who has made a study of methyl al- cohol poisoning, says that ordinary grain aleohol is more poisonous than wood alcohol to isolated cells and or- zans. The high toxlicity of wood al- cohol is due to certaln chemical changes taking place in the alcohol after it is taken into the body. There it is changed into formic acid, and this is the substance that does the.| damage ascribed to the alcohol. Dr. Leo tried out the effect of formic acid on dogs in the laboratory and found that the symptoms were iden- with those of wood alcohol. The tance not only produces a dan- us state of acidosis, but acts as a direct poison. Large doses of sodium bicarbonate—common baking soda— had a markedly beneficial effect on the | experimentally poisoned dogs. b e The women's national clay target championship shoot, held at Vandalia.

PROBABLY the highest tribute ever paid to any ar- ticle— certainly to any pen— is paid to the Parker Duofold by other pen manufacturers. Their wide-spread imitation of this Parker classic is the frankestadmission of its super- excellence that wae or the pub- lic could ask for. If these other makers were able to sell their imitations at Parker prices, they might raise some question as to which is superior.
