The Importance of Healthy Kidneys In the removal of waste matertal from the body, the kidneys are called upon to perform a very important duty, The failure of these marvel ous and delicately constructed or- gans to properly do their work! means retention in the system of pol: | sonous matter.

But this doctrine was never intended selfishly, and in pre- serving It the United States has har bored no dream of exploitation, he | added. Speaking on pan Americanism at | the unveiling of the statue of Simon Bolivar, South Amertcan liberator, in Central park, Harding repelied tn strong words insinuations that the United States bad used the Monroe doctrine as a cloak for exploitation on the Western hemisphere, On the contrary, he said, pan-Americaniam means “sympathetic and generous Americanism.” All American republics should “touch elbows,” he added, to show that achievement does not mean any body's destruction. “No scifishneas tmpels, no is urging, no envy incites, no ig actuating,” Harding declared, A short but meaty section of hin comparatively brief addrens was de voted to the Monroe doctrine, “There have been times when the meaning of Monrociam was misun derstood by some, perverted by oth ers, and made the subject of distort ing propaganda by those who saw in it an obstacle to the realization of their own ambitions,” Harding said. “Some have sought to make our ad. he to this doctrine a justification for prejudice against the United States, They have falsely charged that we sought to hold the nations of the Old World at arms length in or- der that we might monopolize the privilege of exploitation for our- selves, Others have protested that the doctrine would never be enforced if to enforce it should involve us in actual hostilities.” Girl Routs Prowler but He Steals $42 After rifling the pockets of coats left in the girl's locker room of the Leary building, late Tuesday after. noon, an unknown man made his es. cape when Mrs. Emma Shelton, ele vator operator, went to summon aid. ‘Th marauder escaped with $36 be- longing to Mrs. May Johnson, $1 from Mrs, Hattie Kavanaugh, and $5 from Mrs, Shelton.
