Health Hint
TRANSMITTING DISEASE
Austin, Texas. Nov 25 —The
primary reason for the Institu-
tion of Thanksgiving Day was
health We know Oovernor
Bradford called together the
people, those few Of them who
were left after that terrible first
year of death and disease, to give
thanks to Qod for all His mer-
cies.
We have come a long way since
that time In the matter of health
but not one seldom thinks of
Thanksgiving In connection
with the health that we enjoy.
Most persons have been so ac-
customed to having those ad-
vantages that they are scarcely
given a thought until sickness
makes it appearance.
The state department of
health, city and county health
organizations have labored for
years to secure the measure of
health protection that the pub-
lic now enjoys They give thanks
for the methods that have help-
ed In the saving of thousands of
lives each year and look forward
to the years to come for greater
service.
Since the first Thanksgiving,
the mode of transmission of
many diseases has been discov-
ered and in many instances the
prevention has become common
knowledge. Yellow fever, plague,
end cholera have practically
ccsed to exist Smallpox, diph-
theria. and typhoid fever can be
eliminated as a cause of death
if a person would have them-
selves and children immunized.
Malaria and many ether dis-
eases can be controlled if the
• riblic would demand that this
protection be a part of the every
•! iv activities of the government
" d practice what is known in
prevention

TRIBUTE TO THE BOSS
During these changing days la-
bor is going on the forty-hour
week -nd men by the hundreds
of thousands are going to have
m .re leisure than they ever had
b, fore it is well, perhaps, to give
thought for a moment to the one
who isn't to be quite so happy
We mean the boss
He's the man that the national
recovery administration refers to
is an executive who is exempt
from the rode provisions for the
simple reason that he Is going to
work harder and longer and car-
ry greater burdens than before
He is the guy who must think up
ways and means of changing his
business methods to meet code
conditions and still, If possihle,
keep out of the red He’s the fel-
low who has to dig up the newer
wage scale cash, so that the pay
envelope will still be available on
Saturday night. He’s the man
who must answer “I will," to the
president, and, In order to get

LEARNING FROM ANIMALS
NEWS FLASHES
Man may ho tho ruler ol tbp
earth, but there are a lot of
thing* we don’t know yet about
the other Inhabitant* that shara
this sphere with ua. and they
are constantly surprising us by
taking charge of things them-
selves.
For Instance, we read In the
paper the other day that rabblte
have again become a plague tn
Australia. Years ago some Eng-
lish settlers Imported a few rab-
bits, which multiplied so fast
that they became a serious men-
ace to crops, and the Australian
government had to pay a big
bounty to get rid of them. But
enough of them remained to
start It all over again.
Even more surprising Is the
story that comes from New Eng-
land of a great migration of gray
squirrels out of Connecticut into
the adjoining states of Rhode Is-
land and Massachusetts. Thous-
ands of them, in huge droves,
move tn straight lines, letting
neither mountains nor water di-
vert them. Fifty drowned squir-
rels were found In one pond;
Connecticut river boatmen re
port hundreds climbing out of
the water onto the boats. AU are
gaunt and half starved. The an-
swer seems to be the failure of
some relled-on food supply. Im-
pelling the squirrels to seek new
feeding grounds.
This episode Is similar to the
story of the lemmings, the curi-
ous little furred animals of Nor-
way, who every few years march
across the country in droves of
millions, until they reach the
sea coast. There they do not stop
but plunge Into the sea and

Preparations are being made
for the construction of the Mc-
Donald Observatory, co-opera-
tive ly managed by the Univers-
ities of Texas and Chicago, in
the mountains near Fort Davis.
Officials and engineers of the
company which will construct
the observatory are making their
final plans. The structures will
be build around two massive
piers requiring about 450 tons of
concrete and 10 tons of reinforc-
ing steel. The observing floor up-
on which the telescope will stand
will be three stories high. The
observatory, the bequest of the
late W J. McDonald of Paris,
Texas, will be the second largest
In the world, exceeded only by
the Mount Wilson telescope In
California.

unsung, unhonored and unwept
hero of It all—the Boss. Just In
case those future historian* Ogg-
lect their duty, we hasten to

farming Industries under bureau-
cratic dictatorship.
Wallace’s Ideas, as revealed In
his address at Chicago before the
association of Land Grant Col-
leges, shows that he leans farth-
er to the left than has been In-
dicated by his previous addresses
It shows also that he Is not in
agreement with the administra-
tion's belief that control of Indi-
vidual farms Is not practicable.
Obviously, Secretary Wallace has
joined the ranks of those who
look primarily to Internal con-
trol of an Isolated America for a
solution of the Nation's prob-
lem of what to do with the sur-
plus production of wealth from
its overabundance of natural re-
sources. Of course, if we are to
assume that the road up the eco-
nomic blind alley that he sees
Is the only road available, then
his plan Is Just about as good
as can be devised. But the real
solution of the problems of not
only, thl* nation, but of the
world, lies In leading countries
out of their blind alleys of In-
tense nationalism and isolation.
Tbte solution eventually will be
reached. It is unfortunate that
