SfN'DAY. XOYF.MItER IB. 1 M.1. That We May Hear Science has proved that radio waves are around and about us at all times. These waves are composed of elements which cannot be detected by the human ear without an instrument of transformation. If it were not for this instrument we would go through’life without knowing that these sounds exist. Many men go through life without any knowledge xOf the fundamental principles of life which have been established for our guidance. The ways of knowledge and truth are ever present but many never see the truth or understand, because they have not used the means through which this knowledge and truth may be received. The ways of truth and knowledge are revealed to us through the teachings of Christ. The church is one of the means through which we may reach a better understanding of these principles, the application of which means contentment of mind and the satisfaction which comes to all who live a Christian life; , Select a Church and then Support It , By Your Attendance Imi subject to. boll weevil damage.

NEW BOOK NEWS (By Associated Press.) * NEW YORK.—In a article In the current tunc of the Journal of the American Medical Association, Dr. Frederick M. Allen, (|'rector of the Pbyslatric Institute, '.Morris town, N. J., g’.ves an authoritative review of the treatment of dit' beteg wits insulin, based on its use at the Institute for a period of mere than a year, or since the 4's covery of insulin by Dr. Frederick O. Ranting ad his associates. 'he lipprc.ssVm has gained much headway with the public during the paat year, according to Dr. Alien, that insulin is a cure for 4'abetes and that regulation of diet is not necessary. This is far from the truth. The use of insulin without a -regulated dVet Is a dan gerous error. Continuing Dr. Allen writes: "The purpose of Insulin treatment is to Improve the nutrl* #'on of patients with severe dia betes and to add a safeguard against downward progress. Mild cases, which can be kept «ynip* tom-free on adequate diets, ordi narily d*> not require Insulin. In sulin does not |>ffer a cure of dia betes or a Jicanse for carelessnesa. “The Insulin treatment should be carried out in conjunction wi’fch accurate liet» under laboratory control to assure that patients re main sugar-free. It involves the inconvenience of frequent subcut aneous, injections and other dis advantages, does not simplify dia betic tieatnjent or Justify careless methods: and fr not the final step in diabetic research. Nevertheless this discovery of Dt. Banting and his associates Is the first replace ment of negative by positive ther apy in diabetes. Candidate For Mayor Isssues Statement Sat.
