How To Keep Well
By DR. Hl'GH S. CURDIING
Surgeon General, United States Public Health Service
A not unusual danger signal of a
diseased or deranged condition of
the physical or mental system is in-
somlnla or an inability to sleep.
The healthy man who is tired
drops off to sleep almost immed-
iately. Thomaiidwho is fatigued fro-
quontly finds himself unable to sleep.
if it happens occasionally that you
are unable. to slccp you may attri-
bute the cause probably to indiges-
tion. overeating or the failure of the
intestinal tract to function properly.
Such temporary disturbancrs of
functions frequently result in sleep.
lessness.
If, howcvcr. you suffer from peri-
cdlc intervals of insomnia you may
be reasonably certain something is
wrong: it may not be more than im-
proper food. lack of exercise. or too
much sedentary work. but insomnia
is a warning that you are not well.
Your trouble. burner. may be en-
tirely physical.
Periodic inability to sleep. you
would think. would send a man to a
physician at once. no matter how
unacquainted with rules of health
that man be. Yet physicians will tell
you that the majority of people. fail
to heed this first dangcr signal of
periodic insomnia. They consider
that periodic insomnia indicates
merely a temporary disturbance of
bodily functions and they delay until
the condition producing the insomnia
becomes chronic.
> In combating insomnia it is im~
portant to know first of all that
primarily insomnia is merely a. symp-
tom. often a fear. insomnia. is not a.
disease. but its cause should he
i
searched for immediately. When
insomnia becomes a continuous con.
dition it is common for the sufferer
to contribute to the insomnia by liv-
ing constantly in a slam of fear that
he will bu unable to sleep.
As a matter of fact. the first step
in the treatment of. a person suffer-
ing from insomnia is to rid that in-
ciividual's mind of the. fcar of ins
aomnla. to attempt to make him for-
get his loss of siccp'and contequenb
ly forget his worry.
The habitual sufferer from insom-
nia who attempts to produce sleep
by some such old and common meth-
od :ls counting sheep jumping over a
truce or by lhe repetition of some
quotation or simple phrase frequent-
ly finds that his efforts are futile.
Fresh sir. exercise. and’concentra-
tion of the mind during the day up-
on somc constructive activity rather
than upon how you are. going to
sleep at night will help morcomc
sleeplessness. (are. of the diet is
also important.
.\ ten~niinmc bath in a tempera-
ture of about 96 degrees Fahrenheit.
followed by a. brisk rubbing. is rec-
ommended as a good sloop producer.
You should see to ll that your!
bathroom is warmed to about 75 de~
grccs. The warm bath draws the
blood to the surface of the body and
to the extremities and there is con-
sequently n lessened flow to the
brain.
A hot foot bath. also. may be tak-
en and may prove resthe and help—
lul in producing sleep. Some have
found theuse of a hot-water has
placed at the feet also helpful.

NEW YORK. Aug. 24,—This great
metropolis is not without its share
of suburban life and commuters'
comedies. Some of the outlying sub-
divisions spring up so rapidly that
the telephone company and other
public utilltes cannot keep pace with
them.
Out in Long Island there. is a com-
munity of several hundred homes
which were all completed at about
the same time. Not one of them has
a. telephone. and so the real estate
office has become s. message ex-
change‘ and its one telephone is over-
loaded with traffic.
Here are somes of the message
which Mac. the attendant. is asked
to deliver.
"Say. will you run up to my house
Ind tell my wife business keeps me
in town tonight?"
“Hello. Mac. do me a. favor. will
you? J list run over to Mario'- house
and tell her I missed the train and
I'll be out later."
"Mac. please. run down to the
house and ask mother whether she
wants creamery butter. or tub but-
ter, I forgot."
"Is this Mac? Well. will you go
over to Emmas‘ house and ask her it
ain't will it be all right for me to
como out? Tell her this is Joe
She'll kncW." 1
"Say. Mac. will you run over it:
the house and see if I closed tht
windows. I'll hold the line until you
come back." ‘
Mac is Just. about disgustod with
his lab. Tbshousowivos call on him
. muoamlttnuoo dos: togetu‘
ed door or to put up window screens
or shades. And ho has a healthy
disrespect for the Manhattanitei
who try to garden.
"Why. one of them dumb boob:
sprinkled grass seed all over bare
clay that was baked hard as cement
and then sat down to watch the
grass grow" he told me.

Fish. who recently came here fron

He stopped to look at the electric

a light-fingered gent relieved him

Bohind These
Would Make Capital One of Biggest Cities
By CHARLES P. STEWART
WASHINGTON. Aug. 24.—-’.l'he
Washington Chamber of Commerce
has launched a. campaign to make
the capital one of the country's blg~
goat cities. as well as its most im-
portant. in its own peculiar way.
The Commerce Chamber doesn't
care so much about making it. an
industrial center: what‘s particularly
aimed at is "selling" the place to
prosperous people as an ideal spot
isn‘t uncomfortably big yet. though
the boosters are trying to make it
so. it lm’t rusbod to death. And

The Washington boosters make ‘ one feels that he‘s living. here, in
out a pretty good case. Of course the midst of things. It's headquar-
they exaggerate. Boosters always do.
They won‘t admit there are am‘
drawbacks at all. For instance. they

The President‘s to be seen occa-

mon they don‘t amount to much.

Washington‘s mighty cosmopoli-
tan—more so than New York. even.
New York's foreign population is
very large but Washington's is ex-
traordinarily variegated.
Theroare samples from the most

be visited.
'I‘rur. Washingtonian never both-
er with any of these things. Only
tourists do. Still. they’re here-—
something for the resident to feel
proud of. even if he doesn't know
what they look like.
Washington‘s climate is that it new
cr gets \ery cold. but it certamly
does get wet and nasty and in sum~
mer it can give points to the tropics
in the line of getting hot. The boost-
cra mention that "the street car ser.

room for it.
Housing conditions are pointed to
ulth pride. They ought to be classy.
Houses cost enough. '

Another bad thing about Wash»
ington~shc isn't her own boss.
Congress is. When the enterprising
boosters are not boosting they know
this is a bad thing. too. In their
calmer moments they howl like
everything for selfodetermlnaiion.
If the. alderman of any other city
in the United tateo passed any one
of the dozens of nutty ordinances
that the. capital has to worry along
under the voters would chuck 'om
out of office in a. minute. But Con-
gress isn‘t answerable to Washinp
ton. .
So it can experiment and monkey
and tinker with the municipal ma-
chinery to its heart’s content and it
surely does get a lot of fun out of
doing so. but it's—well. it’s severe
on the Washingtonian.

Professor Albert Einstein . won‘t

it. is announced that the press of
work prevents the famous founder
of relativity from accepting the in-
vitation extended to him by the Col-
ifornia Institute of Technology.
A visit from Einstein would be
particularly interesting at this time.
as it would give American scientists
the opportunity of getting at first

cent' experiments of Dr. Miller and
Dr. Michelson to test his theory.

New York psychoanalysis have.
embarked upon a campaign to or-
ganize an international psychoanaly-
tical foundation. They plan to ask
Professor Sigmund Freud to become
the. head of the foundation.
Through the foundation. they
plan to publish papers and reports
and to conduct campaigns to dis-
credit “quack" analysts who have
set themselves up as practitioners
of psychoanalysis in many locali-
ties.
The Last Frontier
By DAVID DIETZ.
The scientist is seeking always to
reduce complex phenomena'to a few
fundamental ones.
As the great‘Thomas Huxley out
it. "In ultimate analysis everything
is incomprehensible. and the whole.
obJect of science is simply to reduce
the fundamental incomprehensibili-
ties to the smallest possible num<
her.
The chemist took the thousands of
substances and reduced them to
combinations of 93 chemical elo-
menu.
Then the physicist proceeded fur-
ther and reduced the 92 elements to
different combinflns or configuru
tions of two ele ntal things. the
negative electron and the
electron or proton.
And now it. looks as if science
were going to go a little further and
‘roduce the electron and proton to
one substance. ‘ '
That one substance is the so-call- .
ed other that fills all space.
Since the other can’t be seen. felt.
weighed. measured or in any other
way made tangible. it comes pretty
close to answering on ordinary defi-
nition of "nothing.“
So it seems that the scientists are
reducing everything to nothing.
Sir Oliver Lodge advances the
idea that the proton might he s
right~lund whirl or eddy in the
other and the nogative electron ’
left-hand whirl.
