IS thi.' the THINGS TO DO—AND NO": TO DO The suffering man or woman g’enerally willing to grasp at straw which promises even slightest alleviation. It may be an inflamed and swolk’n joint, a throbbing, agonizing, inflamed nerve, a passing calculus, or the pain of peptic ulcer. Local applica tions afford a measure of relief worth going after, besides keeping the mind occupied so far as pos sible on the work in hand and away from the suffering. There are many forms of local medication, but there are only a few drugs that penetrate the skin and reach the affected part. One had better Leave the local use of poisons to the physician. Linaments ooTitaining ether, chloroform, car bolic acid, and such like, act as local anasthetics, the two former must be carefully kept from flame, as they ignite easily. Ointments containing menthol are cooling and TODAY ««i soothing to inflamed surfaces.

On the same day I read of Mrs. Roosevelt christening f>ur Navy’s newest and biggest air-craft carrier, the Yorktown. I reflected, with some satisfaction, that the ultra- [jacifists who would stop all efforts to defend our country against a foreign foe have not yet killed the martial s])irit of .America. 1 don’t think we are likely tr; be attacked or invaded by any foreign nation. Jkit I am sure that, the world being what it is, we would be inviting attack if we did not keep ourselves prepared to resist it. 1 do not think we are ever likely to engage in a war of aggression, but 1 can easily imagine a situation devekvping such as developed twenty years ago, in' which this country might again feel, as we did then, an almost .unanimous compul sion to go to war to preserve our national rights and liberties.

Cold drives blood away from the part, by con tracting the vessels. music of the .bands, as from the com)ianies and battalions of boys, members of various cadet corps, who marched ibehind the flags. They were giving visible proof that the s))irit of jiatriotism still lives. 1 hope none of those boys is exer called upon to kill an enemy. J' hope none of them is ever killed in war. 15ut 1 hope that if the oc casion ever comes again when the people of America have to resort to the crude implements of blood shed to reaffirm their devotion to the greatest of all spiritual am- cepts, the concept of ordered liberty for every human being, these boys will feel, as the men of America have felt from the beginnings of our nation, that life without liberty is unendurable, death preferable to submission to any form of compul sion that would restrict any man’s liberty to order his own life. IDEALS . . ' . th'e first The .greatest danger to .■'imerica that 1 set is the danger that we are losing sight of the ideals upon which our nation was founded and in the pursuit of w'hich we have grown to greatness. .And first among those ideals I would list the ideal of i)erspnal liberty of thought, speech and action. 1 see signs all around that sug gest that great groups of Ameri cans no longer cherish those liber ties, and that other groups are defi nitely bent on destroying them. There is more to patriotism than being ready to go to war. It seems to me that any man w'ho does not do whatever lies in his power, to challenge any attempt, either from within or without his country's boundaries, to curtail any of his or other people’s legitimate liberties IS not much of a patriot. Unless we stand up for our lib erties, and refuse to surrender them, It M-on’t be long before we have no liberty left worth fighting VALUES . . change , ^*5“: striking change in the thmking of Americans in recent year.s has been the shifting of standards of value.

We hear that our forefathers America in search ot .se- securitv they sought was secu.ny from interference with their liberty of thought, of speech and of choosing their own way ot living. They did not come here to gain economic security at the cost of liberty, but to gain liberty in order to take a chance at building their own economic security. That took courage. Only brave men and women took such chances as did the pioneers of America. J wonder, at times, whether that old strain of courage to take long chances for the sake of liberty has vanished.
