"With or without offense to friends or foei I tketch your world exactly at it goes." Byron Public Health Work There are two views of public health work, one to the effect that its paternalism destroys individual initiative and resource and develops a helpless hypochondria which breeds imaginary ills, and the other that education and knowledge are essential to maintaining health. Its advocates point to the decrease of contagious diseases, the control of epidemics, the lower infant mortality and the increased span of the average life as beneficial results obtained. In his recent address before the Canadian Medical As sociation at Winnipeg, Dr. Robert Hutchison, one of the fore most of British physicians claimed that the old ignorance about the body and stolid resignation to its ills was probably a healthier and certainly a happier attitude than our modern curiosity and over-anxiety. He claimed that nervous trou bles are commoner today in childhood than ever, due to the atmosphere of fuss and anxiety in which so many children are brought up. He held that one need not especially con cern himself about his health, until he feels that something is wrong and then he should see the family doctor. Dr. Gerry Morgan, president of the American Medical association at its Detroit meeting, expressed disapproval of the growth of paternalistic tendencies directed towards the conservation of public health by agencies of government. Commenting upon the growing list of health agencies, he asks: What has come over the people that makes such oversight necessary or possible? We are told that mothers have been "educated" in the care of their children, until they are stampeded by the multiplicity of direc tions, and In Increasing numbers, are turning the Job over to the "clinic" or "center" or whatever agency may be available for shifting responsi bility, while they read the latest thriller or go to the movies. In reply to such criticism, Lee K. Frankel, Ph. D., vice president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, one of the chief public health workers, said at the dedication of a Boston health center, that there has always been a fear complex in humanity, due to ignorance, and that it could only be dispelled by the spread of knowledge, the main func tion of health agencies. As a result of this work, he points out that now: Cholera and plague In the United States are unknown. The mor tality from tuberculosis has been more than cut In two. Small-pox Is beginning to disappear. The death rate from diphtheria Is decreasing by leaps and bounds. Fewer mothers yearly are dying In childbirth. The Infant no longer dies betimes. We see the possibility of ascertaining the cause of cancer. Scarlet fever, measles and whooping cough will soon bow to the wand of medical science. The expectation of life Is almost doubled. Modern medicine and particularly modern preventative medicine Is fundamentally the Interpretation and application of modern medical re search. The discovery of the germ theory of disease has changed tile picture almost completely. If the full value of this discovery is to be Rained, knowledge of It must be universal. Education In this field must begin with the child; it must be made a part of our public school educa tion. It must be given to the adult. It must find Its practical applica tion in health centers. It la a cooperative undertaking. Involving a definite understanding between the physician, the parent, the child, the teacher, tlie public health administrator and the legislator, to reduce disease to the minimum and prolong life to the full biological limit. There is a happy medium between these conflicting viewpoints. Bureaucracy needs limitations or it over-reaches itself. The good the health work does is bevond question, though it is not entitled to all the credit claimed that be longs to the medical profession. But having experienced the benefit of public health work in its initial stages, we do not believe the people of Marion county are willing to give it up. Surely humanity is as valuable as our livestock, fruit trees and bulbs and children a greater asset than cows and hogs yet we do not stint in money spent to keep our herds, our poultry flocks and our orchards free from disease. Nor should we prune too closely our health budget. Portland's New Sensation The moron majority in the metropolis has forgotten all about its catalyptic spasm for free power without cost to taxpayers in the manufacture of a great mystery in the triangle murder or suicide case. The sensation loving press, editorially spouting great gobs of outraged virtue in one column moralizing over the wages of sin, is devoting the major portion of its news columns to pandering to the libid inous, lascivious and likerish appetites of the scandal mags. The commonplace details of this illicit romance and re sultant tragedy of the "love nest" are reiterated and repeat ed daily despite, their sordidness, gaining a little in the bi zarre like a many times recited tale does. The woman in the case has become the "bright love moth" transformed by third degree methods into a "sobbing terrified girl" on the verge of a nervous collapse. While the man from a spoiled darling of inherited wealth has become overnight a multi millionaire. We suspect his money is the chief cause of the excitement it offers such rich pickings for plucking law yers nnd much newspaper notoriety for officialdom, while the sleuths of the press build a romance on every reaction or fake one for circulation gains among the morbid. As to the merits of the case we know nor care nothing. Without millions being at stake, it would be merely one of i 41 1 . -j :t t T..i U-l Hie Bliuii nu BiiiifJIU mauiiiua UL tlltr Kni , dui ve Itavt V, IlUk being a millionaire did for Alexander Fantages and we are about to witness what it will do for Nelson C Bowles.

Kven the newspapers are filled with similar sordid tragedies throughout the land. Yet out of this shop worn material is being spun the sensation of the century.

The work Is expected to be finished on that side the com ing season. The petition was accompanied by a map In which It Is sought to have the proposed route changed to run through the farms of J. Blakely, J. Van Gorder, Lena DeSantis and I. DeSautU. It Is stated the proposed route will carry the road quite a little distance from the center of some of these farms.

There's more than one reason I In the first place, it Is hygieo ically safe. In the second place, it is amazingly absorbent and that is vital for all surgical pur poses. Actually think of this Kotex is five times as absorbent as the finest surgical cotton! The material of which it is made (Ccltucotton not cotton ab sorbent wadding) is laid layer upon air-cooled layer. And each one of these delicate layers is a quick, complete absorbent in itself. Because it is so absorbent and because it absorbs scientifically (not just in one concentrated area but all over) Kotex naturally stays soft. It it guaranteed to stay soft longer than any other sanitary pad. you. Safety, security, good health demand it VC'hy should you be content with anything else when you can buy Kotex everywhere at all drug, dry goods and de partment stores? You ask for It by name. Sim ply specify: Kotex. 13.000,000 pads to hospitals alone To give you an idea of thercat weight of hospital approval In back of this first of all sanitary pads, the hospitals of America bought 13,000,000 Kotex pads during the first nine months of this year. Then added to this number, they bought 2,500,000 pounds of Kotex absorbent which is enough to nuke 80,000, 000 more pads. Hospitals need the best. So do KOTEX IS SOFT ?! . 1- Not a deceptive softness, thit oon picks into chifing hsrd oef.
