newly appointed coinniander-in-ehiei'
i<l t!ie Italian forces in Albania, was
k organizing his troops and devising
a new plan of campaign.
Supporting this view was the fact
that then, had been no Italian attack
oi any consequence in the past lew
days.
The Grc c ks took advantage ol' the
lull to strenfthen their lines.
Last night alio Italian soldiers were
reported taken prisoner.
A high command citmmuniquj
said '"the number of Italians taken
prisoners in Epirus is increasing'
and included "wounded abandoned
bv the enemy."
One company of Aiuanina troops,
officers and all, was said to have
surrendered as Greek forces pressed
forward to their own frontier.
The Greek advance was reported
to have thrust the fascist invasion di
visions back into Albania except for
a shallow salient near Ihe coast.
Greeks said their own counter
wedge in Albania at the northern end
of the front was defended success
fully despite Italian raids.

The Fifth Age
of Woman
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. 1).
6 Of the seven ages of woman,
we come to the fifth—motherhood.
Just as not all men experience
every one of Shakespeare's seven
ages, so not all women experience
this one. In our modern world
many women are inclined to make
it a matter of choice—they feel a
career fulfills their requirements,
and a home appeals to them as an
inadequate career. I am old-fash
ioned enough or perhaps funda
mental enough to think this'is a
Dr. Clendening will answer
questions of general interest
only, and then only through
his column.
mistake. The laws of biology are
not mocked. Nothing in our mod
ern world has changed us from
being mammals of a certain or
der, genus and species. Wifehood
is the only natural career and cer
tainly the most desirable economic
career for the adult female homo
sapiens.
It is the only one that complete
ly satisfies her spiritually and
mentally. I can hardly argue that
from the standpoint of physical
health, motherhood does not bring
a larger share of hazards, but
maiden ladies run some physical
hazards too. There was the bril
liant monograph of my old friend
Charley Manson, of Wormsley, on
"Obscure Nervous Lesions in the
Unmarried," the very title of
which suggests what I mean. But
the great damage to the career
woman is on the spiritual and
psychological side.
The Career Woman
One thing is certain thai; dur
ing this age a woman will be in
more need of medical advice than
during any other in her lifetime.
In fact, she is so surrounded with
it she starts to do a good bit of
doctoring herself. And I, for one,
don't blame her. After fifteen or
twenty years of motherhood she
should know as much about the
practical things of medicine as
most interns and, indeed, as many
experienced practitioners. So far
as the common ordinary things,
such as recognizing a case of
measles, I would trust her any
time. And by the time she has
passed her twentieth year she
should have a list of remedies that
can't be beat.
One of the faults of modern life
is that there are not enough gen
eral practitioners to care for fami
lies at this time of life of which I
am speaking. Every young doctor
nowadays wants to be a specialist,
and everybody wants to have a
specialist. So a family . in the
great reproductive period is par
celled out between an obstetrician,
a pediatrician, a rhinologist, a
radiologist and a gynaecologist. It
takes nine tailors to make a man,
and it takes nine specialists to
cure a little family nowadays.
When as a matter of fact, a good
general practitioner can efficient
ly take care of ninety-five per cent
of all the illnesses such a family
has.
The worst feature of modern
medical organization is that the
average family doesn't know
where to get hold of such a man,
and is afraid of the fees of the spe
cialists. I saw a movie the other
night which depicted a young dis
tracted husband who wanted to
get a good obstetrician for his
wife and was repulsed in the ob
stetrician's office and told the fee
would be two thousand dollars. I
hope that is an exaggerated pic
ture. When the medical^ profes
sion loses the confidence" of the
young family man in modest finan
cial circumstances, it has indeed
sold its birthright.
Tomorrow—The Fourth or Fifth
Decade.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
E. S.:—"Is it advisable for a
person with ulcer of the stomach
and colitis to take a teaspoonful
of bicarbonate of soda three times
a day?"
Answer—Yes, or even more. Bi
carbonate of soda and other alka
line powders such as calcium car
bonate or aluminum hydroxide
neutralize the acid in the stomach
which keeps the ulcer irritated.
