But this plethora of skill and intelligence has not been an unmixed blessing. It has engendered in many Americans a worship of false gods. Whoever sees in material things the whole meaning and purpose of life is a worshipper of false idols. The Egyptians who made offerings to a sacred bull or the Indians who danced around a totem pole were no more idolatrous than are modern Americans who make a fetish of intelligence, talent, or success. Nor are they any more ludicrous than the great numbers of American women who make the cult of beauty their predominent interest in life.

If the racketeers had so much power all over the country why shouldnt their all viruses hostile to man, and some may prove powerful allies in his war against disease, Professor Max A Lauffer ol the University of Pittsburgh claims. Viruses are generally looked upon as enemies because they are known to produce some of the worst infectious diseases, such as polio, influenza, measles, mumps, small pox, sleeping sickness, and one type of pneumonia, and may even cause the common cold according to Professor Lauffer, who is director of the Virus Research Program at the University of Not SEWING . . .

A: Masses which are recited the most common form are called Low. If the celebrant is assisted by a deacon and subdeacon, it is called Solemn. Pontifical, Requiem and Nuptial Masses are, respectively, those celebrated by a bishop, for the dead, and at marriages.

Bacteriophages represent natural enemies of bacteria, he said. Why haven't they been used successfully as antibiotics? I believe the answer is that we do not know enough about the fundamentals of the interaction between bacterial viruses and bacterial cells. This helps to illustrate the need for basic scientific research, Professor Lauffer declared, adding that such research lies at the root of the solution of innumerable practical problems. ing APHIDS '40 1 iKnilt rcr Uqredteel.
