First of Series of Conferences
to Demonstrate Advances
J
in Child Betterment.
Addressing a conference held at
the University hospital Tuesday
morning, Dr. Julius H. Hess, profes-
sor of pediatrics in the University
of 11-nois Medical school, spoke on
the diseases of- infancy and child-
hood. The conference was conduct-
ed under the auspices of the Cou-;
zens Children fund of Michigan andP
directed by the University Medicalf
school, in conjunction with the
Michigan State Medical society.
Doctor Hess spoke on "Diseases
of the Alimentary Tract of Infancy
and Childhood." He presented a,
workable classification of conditions
commonly seen with practical me-
thods of treatment. A round table
discussion was held after the talk.
Should Talk To Child.
Miss Frances Floore, of the diet-
etic department of the University
hospital addressed the gathering on
the- subject of "The Teaching of
Diet to Children." Miss Floore de-
monstrated the beneficial results
accruing from explaining to the
child 'suffering from a particular
disease many of the details of his
condition together with the rea-
sons for treatment. "In order to
obtain the greatest possible co-op-
eration of the child in effecting a
cure," Miss Floore said, "he must
know about his disease and know
what foods to eat and from what
foods to abstain."
After luncheon, talks were given
by .Dr. David M. Cowie, professor
of pediatrics and infectious dis-
eases; Dr. Udo J. Wile, professor of
dermatology and syphilology; Dr.
Moses Cooperstock, instructor in
pediatrics and infectious diseases;
and Guy L. Kiefer.
Have Worked For Year.
The conference was the first of
a series of demonstrations request-
ed by the Couzens Fund committee
for the purpose of bringing the best
methods of and latest developmf'nts
in the care and the problems of the
child to the cognizance of the medi-
cal profession. For the past year,
the University Medical school has
been united with the State Medical
Society in developing extra-mural
post graduate education and the
conference held Tuesday was a
manifestation of the work being
done by these bodies along the line
of child care and development.
' The Couzens fund, sponsor of the
'clinics, was established last year by
Senator Couzens for the express
purpose of bettering the conditions
of infancy and childhood. Senator
Couzens endowed ten million dol-
lars with the stipulation that it be,
used up within twenty-five years,
or at an expenditure of $700,000 a
year.

30 Eskimos starving at Wainwright.
They were taken to walrus fields
where the Eskimos launched skin
boats and shot walrusses for food..
Rescue of Pilot Bennet - of an

Clements Library Has
New Bible Collection
Three Bibles, the first to be
printed in America in a foreign
language, are now in the possession
of the William L. Clements library.
They were printed in German by
Christopher Saur of Germantown,
Pa., the first in 1743, the second in
1763, and the last in 1776. Because
the Oxford Press had a monopoly
on Bibles edited in English, the first
American printers had to issue
them in foreign languages for a
time, or not at all.
Curiously enough, the third edi-
tion of tloe Saur Bible is the rarest.,
The unbound sheets were stored in
his Germantown office when the
British troops entered. In need of
gun waddingathe soldiersusedumost

not many are bound.

Pre-medical Students
Must File Applications
Dean John R. Effinger, of the lit-
erary college announces the receipt
of a letter from New York univer-
sity, requesting that all literary
students of the University who' in-
tend to study medicine at New
York school next year file applica-
tions for admission there before
March 1, 1930.
Dean Effinger cites the request,
which is made to give the New Yofk
university medical school time for
a careful selection of students, as
an example of the over-crowded
conditions which are the general
case at medicine schools over the
country, as well as at the Univer-
sity.
Students who intend to study
medicine at New York next year
are expected to communicate with
Edgar S. Tilton, chairman of thes
committee of admissilon there, for
information regarding the admis-
sion requirements.

forest department in this district,
most of whom were released two
weeks ago, probably will be called
back into service today to com-
bat five incendiary fires which were
reported to have been started in
Siskiyou National forest Tuesday
Inight.
The fire situation in the Siski-
you forest was said to be worse
than at any time previously this
season.
Incendiary fires were reported by
ranger's still at their stations in the
forest and word that incendiarism
had been added to physical fire
hazards came at a time when offi-
cials of the United States forest
service here believed the situation
much improved.

Preventable?" Miss Eleanor Bran-
nan, assistant secretary of the No-
tional Council for the Prevention of
War, will appear. at 4:00 o'clock,

Miss Brannan has been touring
the country on a series of similar
lectures, and was recently barred
from speaking at a church assem-
bly of Armistice Day in Milwaukee
at the request of the D. A .R. and
the American Legion. These organ-
izations did not give their reason
for objecting to the lecture, it is1
stated, merely announcing that
their members would not attend.
The talk is sponsored here joint-
ly by the International Committee
of the Student Christian Associa-
tion and the Tolstoi league.
It is said that former pickpock-
ets and safe crackers will lecture

station since the removal of the en-

A bronze tablet was placed on the
stone fireplace, which he himself
built, by engineering students a few
years ago.
