The Smart Mr. X.
WITH the close of the Community Chest drive, Mr. 3f, with
head bloodless and unbowed, . maintains his life long
record, unimpaired.
Jfr. X is a man of property, and always has been. But he has
never given a dime to the Community Chest and doesn't, in
tend to.
It has been Mr. X'& uudeviating policy to get, not to give.
To the pleas of helping those less fortunate than himself, he
turns a deaf ear.- Why should he help those less thrifty and
competent than he! This is a world of the SURVIVAL OF THE
FITTEST I
Mr. X has survived. If Mr. T and Mrs. T and all the little
T's haven't,-well, that's just too bad for the T family. Mr. X
has always looked out for himself. Why shouldn't, all the other
members of the human alphabet, be able to do the same? . f

drive, as he has from all the others, patting himself on the back
as a very smart man.
ButlShet '
Smart yes, from his own standpoint, from the standpoint
of getting things and keeping them,' and giving nothing away,
But is he smart in a larger and more realistic sense!
Of course he isn't from the standpoint of what really makes
life worth while. He misses the happiness that lies in helping
others, and he also misses the respect, affection, the high regard
of his neighbors and his fellow men. He thinks he can beat
the game by paying his bills promptly and minding his own busi
ness. Put he can't. Sooner or Inter he is pegged in his com
munity where he belongs. So he misses something that is worth
more than the property he has accumulated, and something that
no amount of money can buy. Hut he can't see it. Therefore
it is not that phase of the matter, we attend to discuss. More
over all that sort of thing Mr. X would dismiss, as a lot of
hocus poeus, and sentimental nonsense anyway. Ho is not only
hard hearted but hard headed, and if you would make any pro
gress with him you will have to talk SENSE 1
So far the sake of argument, let's brush all, of Mr. X's
imponderables, out of the picture, and meet the issue with Mr. X
on his own ground. '
Let's talk the language of the cash register, of profit and
loss, of dollars and cents, the only language Mr. X can under
stand. '.
Whereupon, to-wit and et cetera:

TiR. X as noted above is a man of property. His material
well being depends upon the value, the earning power of
that property. Well let's adopt his theory of the survival of the
fittest and carry it on to its logical conclusion.
HPHE Community Chest is abandoned. All charity, private
and public, is abandoned. From now on it's dog eat dog,
each for himself and the devil take the hindmost. We have the
world Mr. X delights in.
OK. Now what happens!
Obviously in certain quarters, there will be people without
food or shelter j without care and proper medical attention;
there will not be one but 'many families faced with death and
starvation.
What will those families do! What will the head of a family
who can't get work, do when he sees his wife and children, get
ting weaker and weaker, through no fault of thcir's and no
fault of his; plead as he will there is no helping hand to aid
them!

In England the old controversy be
tween advocates of sugar la the diet
and opponents of sweets has been r
. t 1 v e d . recently.
A Doctor A. C.
Jordan, radiolo
gist, who has
written, much on
'Intestinal stasis'
maintain that
sweets . are' not
sufficiently mas
ticated by cbll
dren. and are
therefore not di
gested by the
enzymes in the
aellva, and
they reach the
Intestine Incompletely digested and
there undergo putrefaction. Putrefac
tion gives rise to various poisonous
products which, this radiologist In.
auu, are absorbed Into tha blood and
impair the natural resistance of the
entire system, or words to that effect.
Radiologist Jordan's view Is op
posed by Biochemist Sydney W. Cole
of University of Cambridge, who
points out that cane sugar Is not di
gestible by salivary enzymes, and
hence nothing would be gained by
prolonged mastication of thta food.
X-ray studies have shown, too, that
sugar passes through the stomach
quickly. Physiologists know that cane
sugar Is rapidly converted Into dext
rose or glucose In which form It Is
utilized In the body. The amount of
sugar (glucose) In the blood rices
measurably, within 10 minutes after
one has swallowed an ounce of cane
sugar, and ell of the sugar Is absorbed
within 2 hours, even If four ounces
""pHAT answer is easy. If thnt fnther enn't get food by work
ing for it, he will got food in some other way. And it is
not noocssnry to go into details as to what thnt other way
would be. i
"Do you mean ho would become an outlaw a criminal he
would FIGHT for his food 7" Mr. X might interject at this point.
That's what we mean, Mr. X.
"But that would be wrong criminal, lawlessness, revolu
tion r
be taken, whereas tf one takes a Dint
of raw milk It is not completely thru
the stomach In six hours.
These precisely measured facts
rather nmke the morbid fancy of
putrefaction and the . hypothetical
poisoning of the system by the by
products (autointoxication or. as
some American charlatans now call
It, auto toxicosis) seem funny. Not
funny to you gullible birds who awal-.
low all these pathological suggestions,
I suppose, but I'm hard-boiled and
It does seem funny to me.
The biochemistry professor himself
says It Is ridiculous to regard sugar
In the Intestine as a "perfect food for
pathogenc microbes." Sugar or other
soluble carbohydrate which reaches
the Intestine fa converted Into lactic
and other acids which naturally In
hibit or. oppose the growth and mul
tiplication of harmful germs. .he
only germs which can produce toxins.
Various investigators have shown
that cane sugar, contrary to the older
fancies, is not a foctor of dental
carles. But somehow these dear old
superstitions persist long after the
progress of learning has proved them
untenable.
Biochemist Cole, by the sray, tells
his. students at Cambridge that cane
sugar by mouth Is at least equal and
probably superior to the comparative
ly expensive dextrose. I ' think a lot
of gullible doctors In this country
could profit or their trusting pa
tients could by a vliit to Cambridge.
Especially our hoity-toity child spe
cialists who prescribe anything -and
everything only so It Is not pie bean
sugar.
All young people who play, exercise
or work strenuously as young people
shouJd, may well use an ample
amount of sugar In their dally diet.
It is well digested and absorbed and
It wards off exhaustion of the general
muscles and the heart muscle.
But mature adults who do not play
or work hard sugar for them is not
so good.
QUESTION'S AND ANSWERS
Education versus Quarantine -
Why quarantine measles and not
tuberculosis? Is the government do
ing all it can to prevent tuberculosis
when it falls to quarantine those who
have It. ... ? (H, T.)
Answer The necessity for Isolation
of persons 111 of communicable dis
ease varies Inversely with the Intelli
gence of the community. The state
assumes, properly, that the . Intelli
gence level of the community now
makes Isolation (quarantine, as you
call It) of the tuberculosis patient
unnecessary. It would be a fine thing
for the community If persons with
your nations about tuberculosis were
compelled to live for & month or two
In a tuberculosis sanatorium. Besides
benefiting your health It would edu
cate you. and through you many of
your friends and neighbors.
Chocolate
Food value of chocolate? Should a
craving for It be satisfied or curbed
in an adult? Would you consider a
5 -cent bar of milk chocolate a day
excessive for an adult with an other
wise normal appetite? (Q. . M.)
Answer The chocolate itself is of
Insignificant food value, but rather a
mild stimulant (It contains theobro
min. akin to caffeln of coffee., but
milder !n effect and acting more on
the kidneys and less on the heart and
nerves or brain than caffeln). The
food value of sweet chocolate is in
the sugar added." and in the milk
added to make milk chocolate. I do
not think your indulgence Is harm
ful, provided you do not put on
superfluous weight. Children under
13 years of age should not have cocoa
or "chocolate beverages. As a . flavor,
chocolate Is all right. x

SURELY. And private disputes can
be settled without lawsuits, also.
But often they're not.
Private individuals settle their dis
putes by going to law. Nations settle
their disputes by going to war.
In both cases, the dispute origin
ally arises because somebody wants
something somebody else doesn't want
to give up.
M
IP individuals can ever be brought to
