The thyroid gland consists of two lobes, one on each side of the trachea (windpipe) just below and anterior to the larynx or voice box with a connecting isthmus or channel. It weighs approximately o? ounce, and is composed of a large number of tiny closed sacks or vesicles and these are filled with a rnaterial commonly called "colloid." It is richly supplied with blood vessels and this colloid ma terial which apparently contains the hormone secreted by the gland la believed to be secreted into the blood stream within the gland. Any enlargement of the thyroid gland, except of an inflammatory or malignant character. Is termed a goiter. Simple goi'crs are not accompanied by constitutional symptoms. They are said to oc cur more frequently In certain re gions of the earth far from the ocean or shielded from ths sea breezes by high mountains. Sea water contains relatively hifh con centrations of iodine and it is gen erally stated that the lack of io dine In the drinking water and foods in these regions is associat ed with the prevalence of this con dition. The hormone secreted by the gland contains iodine. In fact, more than half of all the iodine In the body is concentrated in the thyroid. This relationship of iodine to the thyroid has long been known, and ioiine has been used in the treatment of simple goi'er for over a conury. I is mor etVe -iive fn preventing simple goiter than in curing it. Two functions are attributed to the thyroid gland. It has a pro found effect upon the growth and development of the body, and it has a stimulating, effect upon the total mctalbolism. i In young animals, removal of the thyroids, results in an arrest May 9, 1952 Sponsor Community Players Rotary Club Odd Fellows Organized Labor 5660 Kirmco, Myr.

The re sulting condition is termed cretin ism. Cretins are abnormal dwarfs. They frequently have bowed legs, thick skin, and coarse hair. Al though they mtiy grow to adult- 'hood, they do not develop men tally. The sex organs remain Ismail and the abdomen becomes distended.. In the adult and clini cal condition of hypothyroidism or lack of thyroid secretion is known as myxedema. In these cases the j individual changes somewhat in appearance, the skin becomes j thick and puffy and there tend to lb? swellings under the eyes. Al though general intelligence is not impaired, the person is slower in ! thinking as well as in movements. There is a slowed metabolic rate, an increased deposition of fat, with 'almost all functions usually dimin ished. The influence of the thyroid up on the metabolism is more evi ident in cases of increased func tion. In this type of glandular dis senter the metabolic rale Increases ! considerably above the normal ' figures, eighty percent above nor ma! is not unusual. Consequently ; more food is consumed, in spite of which a loss of weight usually ! occurs. The person often feels hot because of the increased heat pro duction. Somo other symptoms are excitement, and irritability. There is also an increase in the pulse 'rale and an extra load put upon the heart which must compensate 'for this condition. ! The thyroid gland Is slightlv ' larger in women than in men. In girls during the puberal period, temporary enlargement is com mon. This gland also undergoes physiological enlargement at men .stnial time and during pregnancy. I (I'd.
