THE NEI
Dear Dr. Brady:
I have never minded the cold
and cannot remember ever hav
ing hundled uo a most people
QO since s ww
12 years old
Alter my baby
was born
wanted to take
him out every
day, and I did
u n 1 e ss some
thing prevent
ed (never the
weather). I've
often taken
him out in
- A' J '
rain storms
Dr. Brady ' a n d n o w
storms and he loves It, but the
neighbors, God bless them, for
of course they do mean well,
told me I am crazy to expose
my baby like that and that I
should think of myself anyway.
But when I look at myself in a
mirror and then at my fine
healthy boy I'm glad I'm crazy.
I believe we are healthier speci
mens than they could hope to
be. I want to thank you for
your fine teachings. My baby
' will be 23 months old Jan. 26.
It is too bad more people can
not realize how beneficial open
air and daylight are, even if
the sun isn't shining as brightly
as one could wish. (Mrs. S.E.W.)
. Well, Ma'am, I can mention
scores of reasons why people
cannot realize that, among them,
to take recent examples, - the
health officer of Los Angeles,
the Metropolitan Life Insurance
company, Dr. Chester W. Kurtz,
associate professor of clinical
medicine at the University of
Wisconsin, Dr. E. R-. Krumblegel,
Milwaukee health commissioner
I mention these reasons not be
cause they happen to be the most
than the conventional teachings
of such ."authorities," but be
cause they happn t obe the most
recent items in my acrapbook.
These "authorities" spout their
hackneyed advice year after
year with little or no change
from 1900 to 194S so far as I
can see. They conceal their

"chilling," "drafts, "lowered re
sistance" and "the common
cold." I say these terms are
meaningless and undefined I
challenge these "authorities!' or
any medical or health authority
to define precisely what he
means when he uses any of
these terms. '
Any one who seriously be
lieves illness is caused by chill
ing, draft, dampness, exposure,
sudden change, insufficient
clothing and all that sort of
thing, necessarily bases his be
lief wholly upon theory, fancy
or speculation and arbitrarily re
jects all experience. Coddled
fireside experts conjure up
alarming pictures ex what they
think may happen to Uncle
Phineas if he walks from his
office to his club on a damp day
without his . rubbers on and
brush aside as trivial and in
significant the experience of
soldiers, hunters, sailors, woods
men, surveyors, arctic explorers,
men who know, what exposure
means, but also know that save
frostbite or freezing no illness
of any kind follows it.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWEB8
Dry Eyes
Our 2-year-old daughter never has
tears in her eyes when she cries. 1

since she was born. Could this have

Answer Without mora knowledge
or uie cnua a nutritional state i can
suggest only that vitamin A deliclency

thalmia). If the child s diet does not
consist mainly of milk (with cream,
butter fat) she may have vitamin A

anyway to give her olther a teaspoon

to supplement her diet, for a few
weeks and see. .
Coronary Occlusion and Thrombosis
in your arucle on Exercise and
Heart Disease you referred to coro
nary occlusion and coronary throm
bosis. What Is the difference botween
these two I thousht they were the
same thing? (D. B. A.)
Answer Thrombosis Is formation of
clot In the coronary artery beyond
the point of narrowing, constriction
or occlusion. Practically coronary oc
clusion is the same as ooronary tnroiu
bosis, although occlusion may occur in
a branch of the coronary artery with
out evidence of thrombosis following.
This is as far, perhaps too far to go
