At imy rate, we are froing to withhold our formal endorse ment of this Christinas reform, at- least until we are more eer tain that in this business of poin to extremes.

THE WORLD'S 10 MOST IMPORTANT MEN - TIIKKK are ten "key men" in the world of science today whose death would set hack the progress of civilization for decades, perhaps for a century. And, curiously enough, they are so little known to the general public tluit the average ma n probably could not name three of them. This is the thesis of Dr. E. E. Free, who selects the "ten most important men in science" in the current issue of The Xorth American Review. Kdison and Kinstein, and such men as Pavlov, Michelsnn and Mason, are not included in this list because, in Dr. Kree's opinion, they have already made their chief contributions to science, or because they have put aside personal research and experimentation for administrative duties. Dr. Frees list con sists of the men whose present activities, in his belief, hold the greatest hope for the advancement of human welfare. HIS list of men whose death "would mean an almost irrepa rable loss" are : Dr. Werner lleisenbero; of the Cuiversity of Gottinjren, ami ProT. X filbert N. Lewi of the Cuiversity of California, both counted upon to carry on the work of Kinstein in mathematical physics, a field which holds forth such stupendous possibilities as that of converting matter into power. Dr. Albert W. ITull, One ml Klectrie Company research en gineer nnd an outstanding figure in the development of the radio vacuum tube. Dr. Free suggests that the vacuum tube, as a transmitter of power, is "likely to dominate the technology of the next two decades as the motor has dominated the past two.'' Dr. Harvey C. Kentschler of the Ycstinuhonse Lamp Works, whose mastery of photo-electric cells may lead to "untended ma chines to do our manufacturing or control our transportation." Dr. Claude Dornierfi noted aircraft engineer, regarded by Dr. Forbes ns most likely to introduce revolutionary ideas to aviation. Dr. Otto Warburg of Cei-many, whost study of living cells may lead to a solution of the mystery of cancer. F. F. Lucas of New York, "the only living individual able to operate perfectly the most powerful microscopic equipment ifl the! world." ! Dr. Henry II. Clayton.

It was i most unseem ly and incMiiious remark from a mere apprentice, as you might say. Auntie withered the upstart with a momentary glance. Hum, ynui:;i man. you'll know more when you've a little older." 1 really thouuht perhaps I might, though of course I would never ad mit it then Six or eight yeais lMer. when I was turned loos with medical diploma and license, I ofien thought, privately, how sillv the routine of practice was for ma ture men to bother with il seem ed to me that it was suitable only for youthful tyros And oven to day I often find my thoughts run ning In similar vein. It seems still a puerile business, the practice of I medicine. So does the gener&l pur suit of business. Why should mi ture. fully developed men or women devote themselves to these .affair of youth ?i Why not a deadline for all ihe. old parties? ;... v Isn't there some vague notir.nj prevalent In industry that la. man past 4 5 Is a bit too old for effici-3 ency? Men seeking employment complr.fn that such an impedinun; exists. Lnt it commonly recog nized that an athlete Is pretty sure to decline in capacity, endurance-, speed or stamina at 4 or even be fore? Are not men of 40 passed over in the selection of cannon fod der when the financial interests fall out? Does not the government retire tr..ined, experienced, physic ally sound army officers not owr 55 years of age. merely because they've had an arbitrary term of army service, and pay "em a sub stantial pension for the rest of their lives? All these ideas prevail more or less In the popular mind. I he lieve the practlep of medicine in any of Its branches is as much a matter of youth as is factory or office work, athletics or military life. Of course you ci.n't draw the limit of youth by counting years, but for all of that I find after 30 years of medical life that Auntie lUdwell was wrong, and I believo more than ever that Doctor Os;:i was right If you're quite sure you understand what I mehn.

In wr.rm weather or when one is physically active a gal lon of water a day is often neces sary. In cool weather or when one is less active, half a gallon a di.y may bo enough. The kidneys normally excrete 3 pints, the lungs 1 pint, and the skin IH to 2 pints of water each 24 hours. (Copyright John F. Dille Co.)
