RAILROAD HIRES 6LANO EXPERT AS HEALTH AID Secretions’ Effect on Body Studied in Effort to Boost Efficiency. BY WOLF LARSON Unltr'l |*res; Stiff Corrfßnondrnt CHICAGO, April 9.—What a gland expert can do for a great corporation v,as told today by Dr. James H. Sutton, who has been hired by the Illinois Central railroad as consulting endocrinologist for its 60,000 employes. He got the job—the first of its kind ir> the world--becau.se a fireman developed a nervous ailment rhat cost the railroad a lot of money before a gland expert corrected the trouble. Dr. G. G. Dowdall, chief surgeon of the Illinois Central medical staff : ,en obtained the services of Dr. Hutton. ‘Extensive investigation has been conducted of late with reference to 11 health among industrial workers resulting from disturbances of the lands of internal secretion,” Dowdall explained. Restored to Normalcy “It is felt that treatment of these conditions will restore individuals, who might be disqualified because of an abnormal glandular condition, to the status of useful workers.” Just what these important glands are and how they affect a person, was described by the railroad s new endocrinologist. He said. "The endocrine or ductless glands are so-called because they have no duct or tube through which their secretions are delivered to the blood. They are roughly twelve in number, four of which are essential to life. “The others are necessary to propagation of the race or to differentiate us from vegetating organisms. “The pituitary gland is located in the head just between the temples and back of the root of the nose. It really is two glands. The front part of it influences the growth and proper development of the bones, the voluntary muscles and the sexual apparatus. Controls Height “Failure of this part to function properly during youth leads to a lack of height and to a poorly developed muscular system. If it functions over-actively an overgrown person results. “The back part of the pituitary, or the posterior lobe, has to do with the handling of starch, sugar and water In the body. It it fails to do its work in the right way the person so afflicted takes on fat. “The thyroid is located in the neck. Goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid. “This toxic thyroidism in the adult causes dry skin, dry and brittle hair, lack of pep and endurance, a slowing down of mental processes and physical performance. “The parathyroids, four in number, are about the size of a grain of wheat and are located in the neck iust below and behind the thyroid. Helps in Emergency "The adrenals are two in number and like the pituitary each is really two glands. The medulla or inner part is believed to be inactive during ordinary life, but when some emergency arises, the adrena medulla sends an extra amount of its secretion into the blood. This causes a rearrangement of our fighting forces so that we are better able to overcome our enemies. “The vortex is the part of the gland that is being experimented with in connection with cancer. “Disturbances of certain other glands lead to a great deal of absenteeism among women employes. The greatest usefulness of this service probably will be at the first with these disturbances in women.” SCHOOL CALENDAR FOR YEAR IS ANNOUNCED .'ity Institutions to Open on Sepi. R, Following Teachers’ Session. D. T. Weir, acting school superintendent. Tuesday night announced the school calendar for the coming year.

High School Library Is Social Activities Center

If bookshelves could talk those in the branch library at Manual Training high school should be able to disclose many secrets regarding the ways of youth. Perhaps these shelves could tell that boys and girls who peruse its reference volumes and study its “dead languages” are Interested in more things than books when they sit in a library. At least school librarians find that furnishing reference volumes and classics Is only a part of their duty. Such a book haven must be a center for socialized activities of the school. Not only must the library carry data on the Pythagorean theorem, but it must keep stock for a multiplicity of book wants incident to school clubs and other extracurricular activities. “Our duty.” says Mrs. Florence Schad, librarian, “is to stimulate in boys and girls a wholesome curiosity about books and a desire to possess books and to develop correct reading tastes.” The 1,800 pupils at Manual read classics and books of high standard and take advantage of fifty current magazines offered by the branch. They are given instruction in “How to Use a Library” and have a book stock of 7,800 volumes at their disposal. The Manual school library was founded in 1895 and became a branch of the city system in 1920. Miss Zella Adams is assistant librarian.

Excess acid is the common cause of indigestion. It results in pain and sourness about two hours after eating. The quick corrective is an alkali which neutralizes acid. The best corrective is Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia. It has remained standard with physicians in the 50 years since its invention. One spoonful of Phillips’ Milk, of Magnesia neutralizes instantly many times its volume in acid. It is harmless and tasteless and its action is quick. You will never rely on crude

They will start at the statehouse and be conducted personally by representatives of the conservation department, Lieber explained. “These tours,” he said, “will be of four or five days’ duration and will be paid by a blanket cost for all expense. We want them to be within the reach of the man of moderate means and will make them especially attractive for families. “We expect to have at least two of the tours in operation this summer. One will be to the southern Indiana points of scenic and historic interest and the other to northern Indiana.” TWO MEN RESLATED Herman Smithers, held at police headquarcers on vagrancy charges, today was reslated on charges of grand larceny and forgery, accused of theft of a check on which he is alleged to have forged indorsement.

Hence, the flapper must go. “Flappers,” said Mrs. Stull, waxing philosophical, “are all motion and no emotion.” Tire national president and founder of the Widows and Widowers Club of Elyria then outlined her plans, beginning by handing out a pamphlet, on page four of which
