SURGERY'S EBB IN CANCER SEEN Columbus. O. (U.R> A prediction that the use of surgery in treatment of cancer will diminish steadily was made by Dr. E. T. Kirkendall of the Ohio State University medical school recently upon his return from a study of the disease in Europe. Dr. Kirkendall believes from his studies that the use of X-ray treatment will increase and that use of radium will continue. He spent six weeks at the hospital Radiumhemmet, in Stockholm, one week at i the Royal Infirmary in Edinburg, 1 and a week each at hospitals in Brussels and Paris. In his opinion, Swedish doctors ' are far advanced in cancer treatj ment. | “Far more cancers are being ' treated in the early stages there than here,” he said. “Furthermore, in Sweden if the doctor feels there is any chance of a cure, he tells the patient he has a cancer. Then I the patient can cooperate in the , treatment, which is vastly important." I Dr. Kirkendall also said European surgeons keep more complete records of the progress of cancer cases than those in America. “T Teel we are making definite headway in the study of cancer,' 1 he said. “Os course, there’s a great deal we don’t know. For instance, you never saw a man with a cancer on his upper lip. and you never saw a woman with a cancer on lier lower lip. Why? We don’t know." o SEX EDUCATION TO BE OFFERED ALL IN HAWAII

— Sex education and guidance to children and parents will be furnished through the Social Hygiene Association of Hawaii, recently organized. The organizers, consisting of doctors, teachers and private citizens. adopted a five-point program ' of objectives. 1. To furnish all who guide chil- | dren with sound material and me- ! thods for sex education. 2. To preserve and strengthen the family as the basic social unit, through family counseling, and training for marriage and parenthood. 3. To seek the reduction of sexual delinquency. 4. To emphasize the responsibility of the community and individual for preserving or improving the quality of future generations by educative and social measures. 5. To foster character education from childhood to develop “better behavior in respects to sex in its attitudes, ideals, standards and broadest sense.” Dr. Roswell H. Johnson, who came so Honolul from the University of Pittsburgh last December. will lead the work of the association. Miles E. Cary, association president, said the work “represents a pioneering effort to bring out into the open problems heretofore untouched.” o Death Os Pet Frog Leads To Inquest Hyannis, Mass. (U.R) —Was it old age or was it just a broken heart that caused the death of Oscar, pet frog of children here? Oscar 1% years old, was found dead in a small aquariam in Miss Bertha Weber’s classroom where it had made its home since pollywog days. Miss Weber decided to get to the bottom of the mysterious death and held a triSl before the townsfolk. The case was adjudged a mistrial when the jury couldn't come to any satisfactory agreement.

Carnegie Portrait Presented To Libraries for Centenary -•> ’ r s4a KM ANDREW CARNEGIE AS a part of the Andrew Carnegie centennial celebration, the Carnegie Corporation of New York is presenting to all Carnegie libraries in the United States and the British Dominions and Colonies, a reproduction of a portrait of Andrew Carnegie by Luis Mora, framed for permanent display. The above is a picture of the Mora portrait., • Between 1881, when he built his first library In Dunfermline, Scotland, and 1917, when his library gifts ceased, Carnegie donated 2,811 public libraries in the English speaking world. Os these 1,946 were built In the United States. Carnegie was born In Dunfermline, November 25, 1835. The Carnegie centennial celebration will be held In the United States November 25, 26 and 27,

The portrait of Andrew Carnegie. of which the above photograph is a copy, has been received by. the Decatur public library. Celebration on November 25 this year of the century of Andrew Car-; negie’s birth recalls that in Carnegie's library benefactions, which I gave 1,946 libraries to the United | State, Indiana fared better than > any other State of the Union. Carnegie built 164 libraries in Indiana. California was second with 142 Carnegie libraries. Illinois and New York third with 106; Ohio fourth with 105 and lowa fifth with 101. In addition to the 164 Carnegie public libraries in Indiana, Carnegie funds were used for the construction of two college libraries, at DePauw and Earlham. Carnegie also provided endowments of $75,000 for Notre Dame, $50,000 for Wabash, $25,000 for Butler, and an $18,750 building for Moores Hill. He appropriated $50.000 for the library building at DePauw' and $30,000 for the library at Earlham. Other funds have been appropriated for Indiana colleges in later years by the Carnegie Corporation of New York. \Vhen Andrew Carnegie began

’g _ IIE compelling appeal of the * most famous of Rod Cross world war posters has been adapted by the distinguished artist Lawrence Wilbur in the 1935 Red Cross roll call poster. “The Greatest Mother In the World” was the title given to the original creation of Alonzo Earl Foringer, eminent mural artist and illustrator of New York. The poster gave the keynote of the Second war fund drive of the Red Cross, and millions of conies were distributed throughout the nation.

his library work in 1881, few American communities had free public libraries. The momentum he gave to the public library move- i ' ment in America resulted in libraries for virtually every town. ■ The conditions of Carnegie’s library gifts were that the commun- ' ity had to provide the site for the building, possess or obtain the ; books and suitable equipment and pledgr> an annual appropriation for . maintenance, usually 10 per cent of the amount of the Carnegie gift. , With this assurance that the comi munity would take interest in the maintenance of the library, Mr. Carnegie paid the cost of the . i building.

In submitting a design for the 1935 poster, Wilbur, who has painted a number of posters for the Red Cross, placed the shadowy, heroic figure of mercy in the background, with the practical Red Cross nurse succoring a sick and wounded child in the foreground. “Still the Greatest Mother” is his title. The posters are distributed through 3,700 Red Cross chapters and 9,000 branches in an appeal to every man and woman to join as a member during the annual roll call.
