Readng the very intending operation of the Stombaugh twins that occured last Wednesday in Ind anap । 1 m winders just what mn t possible any more instead of what is possible A transp.ant of an organ such as this a lew years ago was an unheard of thing. Today, even tliough it is not a common occurrence. judging from the fact that only a limited number of such operations has been made, it is with the proper precautions, one that has happened successfully to retain the life of an individual. Such is the case in many instances. Not very many years ago, polio was a dread disea o until the discovery of the Salk vaccine which, along with other similar medicines has almost eliminated the fear of polio. This is something that may be studied for years with very littk* progress shown, but when the preventative comes, n takes only a small amount of time to almost completely wipe out
