THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1930 PARASITE GERMS CURE DISEASES . New Effective Treatment . for Contagious Ailments Discovered (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) New York, N.Y., Oct, 31--Discov- ery of a new and effective treatment for infectious diseases, introduction Into diseased persons of a parasite that literally. eats the disease germs has been reported to the Academy of Medicine. Discoverer of the new treatment is Dr. Felix d'Herelle, professor of bac- teriology at Yale who has been ex- perimenting with the treatment for several years, The germ eaters are known as bat- eriphagi and are found in patients convalescent from disease, He treated 10,000 cases of dysen- tery in Brazil and had only two fail- ures, Dr. d'Herelle said. Four pa- tients in Egypt suffering from bu- bonic plague were cured by injection of the bacteriophagi into the swell- ings. In India three years ago he treated asiatic cholera by that meth- od and despite 'adverse conditions had a mortality rate from the disease of only 81 percent among his pa- tients while the general mortality rate from the disease was 629. It. is the specific treatment par ex- cellence," Dr. d'Herelle said. HARDWOOD FLOORS Laid by expert mechanics, Old floors finished like new. General Contractors, IB. W.

Canadian ~Pacifie Steamships », s Carvy Canadian Pacific Travellers® Alpe Sarvy Canadian Parific Travel MANY SHIPS ARE BEING LAID UP FOR WINTER SEASON Employment for = Several Men Preparing Each Boat for Long Rest Toronto, Oct, 31,--8ix weeks be- fore the "official" close of naviga- tion many vessels on the Great Lakes have headed into winter quarters, either to be laid up for lack of cargo, or else to store their winter load of grain, for which there is no room in elevators, And while the early cessation has added to the ranks of unemployed, so far as the crews of many vessels are concerned, indirectly it has helped Canadian business. This Paradox may seem a strange one but yet it is true, It costs money, and lots of it, to operate a steamship through the summer months, but it also, costs money to lay it up. Engines have to be overhauled; extra supplies taken on board for watchmen; hea- vy oil and grease bought to cover bright-work; and extra lines to hold it to the dock. And, too, it takes extra men to perform all this work, even though the work takes but two or three weeks. "Laying up" a lake boat is quite a job. Decks are cleared of any- thing removable, doors tightly clos {led and the majority of the port holes and windows covered with whitening. , The interior is swept bare an ean. Lifeboats are tak- en ashdve, turned upside down and covered; davits are lashed securely so they cannot swing in the wildest winds. Side and masthead lights are taken down, Ventilators are plugged and canvassed. Even the heel ropes used to raise the wooden fenders when the ship is on the lake are removed, and the baulks of timber left hanging. - In order to stop the rudder from swinging, preventer chains are run from each side. The engine room is a scene of ac- tivity, of course, The tops are tak- en from the huge cylinders and the walls of the latter smeared with thick grease. Those shining eranks and crankshafts, pride of the engin- eer, are so covered with the rust- preventive that they are hardly re- cognizable. All pumps, motors, | generators and extra machinery | also receive the same treatment | And, usually last of all, the ves- | sel is made fast to the dock. No | matter how sheltered the harbor, | or how snug the slip, extra precau- {tions are always taken. Bow, | breast and stern lines of three-inch | mania, doubled and trebled, and | with wire hawsers enforcing them, | "re taken ashore. And then, to | make assurance doubly sure, the nnchor chain is usually stretched 'rom ship to shore and back again. When the crew finally leaves, ith the lonely watchman waving dieu, everything is ship shape and he vessel may be safely left until (he opening of navigation in spring. Eis Honor R.

Wiley of Olympit, believe they will bring from the depths a quan- tity of bullion and gold dust estl- mated variously at from $500,000 to $3,000,000, The Islander lies 300 feet below the surface of the treacherous Ste- phens Passage, along the lonely southeastern Alaska coast, ! The first small find culminates | the dreams and the efforts that | have gripped Wiley, his party and | their backers for five long years-- years during which their work has | been termed futile, their hopes chimerical. While Wiley: and his co-workers' eagerly scan each load of debris brought up by the claws of a spec- fally constructed diving bell de. signed for the search those who risked their savings await word of further finds. With a full passenger list of gola |! seekers who had wrested fortunes from the ice-bound hills and tum- bling streams of the Iklondyke, the Islander felt her way through thick fog of the inland passage that trag- lc morning 'of August 15, 1901 Grizzled miners, dance hall queens bedecked with jewels, bearded pros- pectors and genial operators of pay- ing lodes laughed, talked, sang and danced in the ship's observation room. Champagne corks popped merrily. Crowd stood about long tables where gambling games were in sep ston.' AM 100Ked TOrward eagerly to the ship's docking at Vancouver. They thought of the pleasure-emp- ty years spent in the long search and dreamed of the things their money would buy. Suddenly a crash and a roar of water. The vessel lurched crazily. Those whé rushed to the deck saw the ship was sinking fast, ghastly hole torn in her bow where a white- toothed iceberg had sunk fits fangs. Seventy-two lives were lost in this major sea disaster of the roar- ing Klondyke days, Davy Jones claimed as his own the fortunes mucked from the hills that went down with the ship, Lured by the tales of the gold in the vessel's strong hoxes and safes, many men have tried to reach the Islander. For five years Wiley has worked to perfect the diving bell that served to bring the first "find" to the surface. Several times he headed expeditions to the site of the sunken ship only to meet with dis- appointment. Each time he learned new les- sons and returned home to improve and add new features to the bell, which is a bent egg-shaped cast iron diving chamber operating a claw-like arm through watertight joints. A lone diver works with relatively di mlights on a local oxy- gen supply, which is good fof but a few hours. Wiley was first successful in reaching the wreck in 1029, OPEN 3T.

UNIVERSITY OPENS LITERARY COURSE Supervised Reading Offered By University of Alberta Edmonton, Alta.--An opportun- ity to the students of the Universi- ty of Alberta and also the general public to undertake a course of supervised reading is offered this year by the University's Depart- ment of English, and it is thought many people who desire to engage in good reading instead of the sort of reading being foisted on the public by sensational writers, or worse, will take advantage of the new course. It is intended to zuide people #0 as to enable them to follow a course of useful read- ing and become acquainted with the best writers of the present per- fod. The course is open to the public on payment of a fee that is regarded as reasonable, The lecture in reading will be given in the Arts building of the University three afternoons a week and will occupy an hour each day. They will be given by four mem- bers of the Department of English staff and will be divided into four sections of six weeks each. Prof, E. K. Broadus will take the first six weeks of lectures, his subject being English Poetry. Then As- sistant Prof. J, T. Jones will lec- ture on the Drama, after which Prof. Robert K. Gordon will lec- ture on the Novel, A comprehensive list of authors will be drawn upon for the lec- tures, going back only to the year 1800 and dealing with authors up to the present time, Phoning Australia costs a mere item of $15 a minute.

Un- dertone on former firm and barely steady on latter, with trade notice- ably quiet. Futures opened higher, reflecting, we believe, the advance of New York November eggs, and fairly good movement from storage, but values slipped rather fast to- werd the close, with final sales about in line with those of yester- day. Street advices late yesterday indicated slightly better demand for butter than existed earlier in the day, and left the impression that no further lowering of vaues was to be expected. This proved erroneous, as buyers displayed nfactically no interest this morn- ing, and prices were reduced under their own weight. November and Decembers opened higher, and dur- ing the early part of the session gave good account of themselves, but toward the close selling was of such volume that prices were car- ried off to slightly lower thanyes- terday's close.
