Did ; ^jjpu ever talk to a little girl or boy . vjk> were patients at this institu tion? Never has one gone there -ft r treatment that has wanted to leave, and to see the glorified ex pression when telling of the won derful results attained is sufficient t» giye Mr. Babington first place sta the hearts of the people of our great commonwealth. This great man and his efficient corps of as sistants have rebuilt a large num ber of human bodies in a mould that otherwise would have been misfits in the general scheme of life. ■The hospital has recently finished a new dormitory for the accommoda tion of 135 additional patients, and provisions have been made for tak ing care of the colored as well as the white children of the state. North Carolina contributes to this institu tion in a generous way and the state Is being repaid by the sun shine. and happiness it dispenses in the reshaping of the bodies and limbs that were misshapen in the outset.

Recently there appeared a bulletin from one of our best health de partments, indicating that diabetes is on the increase. "Hand in hand with this has been a corresponding increase in the per capita consumption of sugar.” says the report, “so that it appears - — probable that we, especially the ladies, are over DR. COPELAND taxing our bodies with too much sugar. ’ I am not in harmony with the implied sug gestion that sugar eating is responsible lor dia betes. Frankly, I do not believe it. There can be no question, I think, that cne who actually has diabetes, must reduce materially his intake of sugar. But as to its use being an import ant factor in the cause and development of the disease, I believe there is serious doubt. Indeed, it is, in my opinion, a proposition which would be extremely difficult to prove. There are many other practices and habits that might be pointed to as just as likely to be productive of diabetes. It has long been held that disturbances in the nervous system have a large part in the development of the disease. Tumors, hemorrhages and injuries of the brain and upper pari oi me spinar cora, disturbances of the so-called ductless glands; the effects of overwork and serious fever; all these are factors of importance. As one great authority puts it, “We are left with the problem as to whether the condition arises be cause there is an over liberation of sugar into the blood or because the tissues are unable to consume it.” In short, in the present state of our knowledge, we Just do not know the exact cause or causes. In any event, as I see it, it is unscientific to jump to the conclusion that sugar consumption is responsible for dia betes. It Is natural to associate excessive sugar eating with excessive quanti ties of sugar in the blood. But long before sugar, as we take it, can pos sibly be utilized by the body, it must be converted and transformed into other chemical forms than pure cane sugar. It is the failure of this func tion and its associated processes that result in the unpleasant symp toms of diabetes. There are abundant reasons for practicing temperance in the con sumption of sugar and, indeed, of all other foods. But there is no rea son at present why the use ot sugar should be held up as the particular menace to modern society. It is too valuable a food-stuff to be submit ted to such attack. It may be said in all fairness, I think, that we eat too much food. We take far more than we require for our bodily needs. It may well be that we eat too much bread, too much meat, too much green corn, too much soup, too much salad, too much everything. But if we are sensible in our eating, balancing our meals with some degree of common sense, eating what we need and no more, we are unlikely to suffer dis comfort or disease in consequence. We cannot have healthy bodies and the required heat and energy, without carbohydrates. Sugar and starch supply these. The starch of vegetables and cereals, the sugar of fruits, the sugar used in making our favorite dishes and desserts, the sugar in our reasonable consump tion of candy—these are the ways we get our carbohydrates. By leading a hygienic life, getting fresh air. sunlight and exercises, by giving ourselves sufficient rest and sleep, oy avoiding excessive and overwork—if these are included in our program of living, we may hope to reach ta, if not the centur y mark Answers To Health Queries J.

We need to advertise these assets, and try to in duce capital to come here and es tablish new nidus trie.', continued the nominee. Mr. McWhiter pointed out, that by increasing the industrial wealth of the state the wealth of the farm er, the laborer, and the small busi ness man would be increased pro portionately. A. better market will be developed and the products, of the North Caro lina farms and the farmers will not be forced to depend on the fluctu ations of a market in other states for the profits on. the crops pro duced by their labor. "I am unalterably oppsed to the present system of employing county farm demonstration agents" assert ed: Mr. McWhirter. These men, due to the system which gives the com missioners of the various counties the right to employ these experts, have become political footballs. "A change of administrations usually means a change in farm demons!ration agents, unless that demonstration agent has . played ‘good politics’,” he declared. "X am in favor of the passage of a law providing that these agents shall he appointed by the state agri culture department, all expenses in cident. thereto to be borne by the state and that such other legisla tion shall be enacted which will place these men outside of the pol itical realm, so they can give more of their time to their work as dem onstration agents, rather than be ing forced to give much of their tunet to building their political fences.” The present, tax system also was ADMINISTRATOR S NOTICE.
