CAUSE OF CANCER pr -- Cancer is a result of a wild growth of normal cells of the body, and like every other characteristic of the body, is started by heredity plus environ- ment, both in born conditions and variations in surroundings playing their part said Dr. E, C. MacDowell, of the Department of Genetics. Car- negie Institution of Washington, in a trecent address before the American Institute. Dr. MacDowell has been studying the cause of leukemia, a di- sease produced by the wild growth of the white cells of the blood which has defied all known treatments. ; _Dr. MacDowell has raised through scores of generations of close inter- breeding a black strain of mice which is so susceptible to leukemia that nine.out of every ten will develop the disease, while a light strain is so free of it that only about one out of 100 will get it. "In the black mice," Dr. MacDowell explained, "the heredity predisposing to léukemia is strong, but under the conditions met by one out of ten it is appear. But the offspring of these mice that escape leukemia have just as. much leukemia as the offspring of leukemia parents, - In the.light-col- ored mice the heredity tending toward leukemia is weak, and it is expressed only under rare conditions met by one out of 100. » "When heredity is strong. the en- vironment is less' important; when heredity is weak the environment be- comes exceedingly important. This is true for leukemia and for other traits.

Lappin Bad dh dh Be San > A WAYWARD HUSBAND "I have a husband I cannot under- stand," bégins a letter--in some re- spects very pathetic--which I have just received from a woman who has been married for nearly thirty years. Apparently, off and on, her husband has been wont to go off and have little flirtationis with other women. He has one of his spells now. and is "going crazy over an old maid", "The gossip is nearly killing me, what can I'do?" she asks, Well, it is one of those gases in which a personal interview would be helpful, and without. such an inter- view, it is difficult to know what to advise. Of course, I .might be able to get to the root of this woman's problem through a protracted period of correspondence in which I could ask her many questions and weigh up her answers. But that takes time and she is desperate. In the first place, I should like her to be quite sure she is not misjudging the situation and making it worse than it is, The human mind is_cap- able of playing some. queer tricks, and sometimes, one little indiscretion by someone very close ~ to us, is ing, and imagination can go a long way. In the second place, I would ask her to face.up to her own position frankly and ask herself if she has unconsc- iously said or done anything at any. time to create the rift between her husband and -herself. If she finds she has, them she should immediately take steps to put that right. If she is quite sure that shetis in no 'way responsible for her husband's misconduct then she should face him frankly on the matter and ask his Bd ie She * +e > reasons, taking care to point out the harm the gossip is doing to both of them and what a nerve-wracking of deal it is for her. Perhaps she has could be present when she approach- es the subject. Of course, she will her husband 1s in a reasonably good mood. Sometimes the appeal direct to a man's sense of chivalry works won- ders. : yo I think, however, that in this par- ticular case, much more could be ac- complished through eommon kindness. My correspondent says "I feel I can never forgive him", and that betrays a spirit o fbitterness an dresentment, She will never win back the lost love of her husband so long as she har- bors that spirit. If she will get rid of her feeling of resentment, and set herself out deliberately to be kind and attentive to him and lavish her love upon him, that, I believe, will do more good than anything else. Of course the husband must never be made to feel that a deliberate ef- fort is being made to win back his love. If he is made conscious of undue attention, it ma yspoil the whole thing, In this connection, may I remind my correspondent that soem men need a little mothering, but care must be ex- ercised tha tit is not overdone.

Yet it was used twice in American newspaper service despatches recently in the Canadian dailics. We have al- ready 'objected to another barbarous innovation, namely, the use of the newly coined "messaging" to signify "notifying." Still another atrocity which has crept into cable despatches lately has to do with the manhand- ling of the word "source." 'Such and such a source expresses the opinion, ete." If this tendency to economize the telegraphic costs con- tinues to spread, the English tongue 'will be hopelessly degraded and the public taste ruined.. Mrs. Hepburn Confident ~~.

The reasons were advanced by Dr. Donald A. Laird, professor of psy- chology at Colgate University, in the Medical Record. . He 'reports that after finding that office workers slowed down and made increased errors the first hour after lunch, he experimented with Colgate students to learn whether blood drawn from the head by digestion explained the dullness. Students did mental arithmetic after eating and while liyng with their heads lower than their feet, In this position they were better than with heads higher than feet. Dr. Laird. found the explanation in the "splanchnic reservoir," the area where the blood 'gathers around the viscera. Digestion, he stated, draws blood from - the brain to the splanchnic reservoir temporarily. Feet above "In the assumption of an upright position through evolution," Dr, Laird states, "homo sapiens has gained ad- kind went around.on all fours the blood supply of the brain would be better. ; "The superior size 'of the human brain may be an overcompensation to make up for this slowing and in accu- racy the upright position has brought in its wake. Sleep may be more im- portant for men than animals because the horizontal position permits an in- creased flow of blood to the brain, - "It 1s interesting to conjecture whether the future evolution of hu- man beings will be first into a stooped Issue No, 37 -- '36 > Ay vantages and suffered losses. If man-| tie position and then later into a quad- ruped walking on all fours or whether through a survival of the fittest we will become a race which eats lightly but frequently, or whether survival will come to the narrow-waisted with a small splanchnic reservoir for shunting blood away from their brain." CITY MEN-ON FARMS . Says the (Owen Sound Sun-Times) It must be remembered that the ma- jority of the men- who are_sent. to farms are not farm hardened. * They have been living on too much starchy food. Their hands are soft and blis-, ter casily, and they cannot work the long hours without becoming more or less exhausted. These are things every farmer should consider. It takes time for a city man to accustom himself to the handling of farm implements. He cannot be expected to go off the city streets and pitch hay all day. It is physically impossible for him to do so. Such men - should be given a fair chance to condition themselves. Postage Is Saved : By Arctic People Anchorage, Alaska.--Hugh Brew- ster, aeronautics inspector just re- turned from Kotzebue, Alaska's northernmost aviation base, explained - how the Eskimos save the six cents! it costs to send an air mail letter.

When the | ship lands, Eskimos crowd around reading all notes, looking for onc | from a friend." . The Shortest Poem What is the world's shortest poem?
