i '.an 'V " HOW DO THEY KNOW IT?
I A noted biologist has given it out that, in his opinion,
there are, roughly, in this country 45,000,000 people "who
jhave no sense." The question which naturally arises is
'how. he found it out and whether -he includes everybody
with the bunch .or lines some up with himself and the bunch
'tf highbrows who make it their, business to catalogue and
standardize others according to their own notions of what
! is sense and just how much of it every human being ought
td possess. 1 '

j Wh'on it comes to classifying the human race according
to a standard that makes it possible to put forth such wise
statements as that a majority of the jiuman race is com
posed of adult people who have the mental "development of
14-year-old child, it is time to ask how it is possible to
fathom the intellectual capacity of a great multitude whose

t iraliized agencies weie nt work fiKhtinjr disease and spread
Sins' knowledge of how to get and keep well as at nresont.
A representative of the national hcaltri council estimates
that at least 70,000,000 persons throughout the world are
sick all the time. There are about 35,000,000 deaths an
nually, Students of the subject believe four-fifths of the
cades of illness arc preventable.'' And this is thekevnote
of modiVn medicine and the numerous organizations men
tioned: prevention.
Cooperation in international health work is to be the
winning factor in the war tin disease. It is now recognized
that national efforts without this cooperation can accomp
lish ht.tle. Epidemics have a way of leaping over national
boundaries and even over oceans, as was shown in the
last outbreak of influenza in Europe which invaded our
country. Leadens in the fight are the international lieaitlt
board of the Rockefeller Foundation and the League of
Ked Cross societies. The epidemic commission of the leugue
of nations has also done good work in combatting typhus in
Poland, Russia and Rumania.' When it is staled that the
"expectancy of life in New Zealand is tiO years, whereas in
America and Great Britain it is only 45 and in India .125,
India, the immensity of the task of the health crusaders
is better appreciated. .
.TRUTH in advertising implies lONF.STY in manu
