TONSIL LOSS IS NOT ‘CUKE-ALL,’ DOCTOR FINDS Surgery Does Not Provide Sure Protection Against Childhood Ills. By Gcifprr Kfrvirt ROCHESTER, N. Y-, Sept. 26.—Removal of the tonsils does not give a child sure protection against many, or in fact any, of the usual health hazards of childhood, Dr. Albert D. Kaiser of this city reports to the American Medical Association. Dr. Kaiser’s report is based on a study of more than 4,000 Rochester school children. Removing a child's tonsils and adenoids has become so common a procedure that approximately half the older children of American cities have had this done, Dr. Kaiser estimated. The operation has been performed in the hope of relieving or preventing a great variety of conditions. Actually, it benefits some, but not all of them, Dr. Kaiser's studies showed. Sore throats were impressively fewer in the children whose tonsils had been removed. Likewise, fewer of these children had scarlet fever, diphtheria and inflammation of the glands of the neck. Acute head coids and inflammation of the inner ear were reduced appreciably during the first three years following removal of the tonsils, but were not much affected during a ten-year follow-up period. Laryngitis, bronchitis and pneumonia not only were not benefited by removal of tonsils, but actually occurred more frequently in children whose tonsil; were removed. These children ■, ere less likely to get a first attack of rheumatic fever, St. Vitus’ a. .ice, growing pains or rheumatic h "art trouble, but removing the tonsils did not seem to help recurrent attacks of these conditions. The children whose tonsils were removed at an early age were least likely to have these diseases. Lincoln park in Chicago has 1 300 acres.

/OUR OWN INTEREST IN FIRE PREVENTION WEEK EVERV week should be a fire prevention week, even though only ona is officially so observed. This Year—October 5*77 The activities of Fire Prevention Week represent a concentration of effort within a short period.

It concerns your family—your home —- your business —your community. If you take no part In the public observance, you can at least make the valuable contribution of your own better preparation to resist fire through preventive measures. STOCK FIRE INSURANCE companies—through the National Board of Fire Underwriters, Chambers of Commerce and other organizations —have done much toward making Fire Prevention Week popular and effective for all property owners whether insured or not Increased public cooperation should result In reducing fire losses and In that way justify further reductions in the average cost of fire insurance —a cost which has consistently declined over a long period of years. #Stcsle Fire Insirinea Companies are Represented by Capable Agents In Yosr THE NATIONAL BOARD OF , FIRE UNDERWRITERS 85 John Street, New Yodt CHICAGO SAW PRACISCd 999 Wes* Adams Steel Merchants Ewhange B’dq, tot - j A National Organization of Stock Fire Insurance Companies Established h 1864
