M.D. Written for NEA Service There are a good many diseases which formerly attacked large num bers of people, but which are now rare. Among these diseases are typhoid, smallpox and diphtheria. The development of good sanitary methods are principally responsible for the decrease in typhoid, but the development of vaccine, which greatly decreases the chances ol contracting the disease has also helped. It is safe to say that small pox is rare now, because so many people have been vaccinated. Diph theria has also declined principally because of vaccination or inocula tion, which increases resistance to the disease. Today a new group of diseases is on the decline as a cause of Ill ness and death. These diseases are also caused by infections. They are germ diseases which can be suc cessfully attacked by the sulfa drugs or by the antibiotics, such as peni cillin and streptomycin. Among the germ diseases which can be successfully attacked are lobar pneumonia, which was for merly a dangerous killer, blood pois oning, such as childbirth fever, and the most common kinds of spinal meningitis. All of these diseases yield, in most cases, to the sulfa drugs or penicillin Infection of the middle ear. called otitis media by doctors, and its most common complication, mastoiditis, can also be treated rather well by these same preparations. There seems every reason to believe that the number of operations for mas toiditis have fallen off a great deal. Infections in the urinary tract the bladder, kidneys and their con necting parts are also treated more successfully with some of the new drugs than was posible in the past. Not only are the sulfas and peni cillin helpful in some of these in fections, but streptomycin has proved valuable in some Infections which are resistant to the other preparations. The Doctor Answers Question: What is encephalitis? Answer: Encephalitis means in flammation of the brain. There are several kinds. Some are more severe than others, but they are all dan gerous. Most encephalitis is caused by a virus. Church Meet Slated Tonight SALEM.

Confidence By EARL WHITLOCK T receive many letters from people who are grateful for the aid we have given them In emergency. I very seldom print them. But this one note touches on an Important Idea and I should like you to read 1U It says: ". . . even more com forting than the actual Funeral Service which you eared for so beau tifully and so simply and with so much dignity, was the feeling of complete con fidence we felt when we first called you the night of our be reavement. It was as if we were putting everything connected with this strange and rather frightening experience, into the hands of an old and trusted friend. We knew that every required detail would be taken care of efficiently. We knew that the charge would be frlr and reasonable. Your statement, Just, received, for which find check en closed Is another proof that our confidence was not misplaced. , Thank you. . . ." . I don't think I can add anything to that.
