"During the year cf the study." the three? physicians report, v-i;-,o persons who received the vacc ; .:e reported an average of 2.1 co'ds p.-: person.

This is <-s" great a reduction as had been reported in most of the studies which conclude that these Vaccines a*c oi value. "However, our control group, who received only the salt solution, reported an average of only 1.9 colds during the year of the study, a ire-, duction of 61 per cent from the average of 4.9 colds which was reported for the previous year.

Cash Rent Undesirable Lease for Farmer, Owner Study Papago Indian That the Indian only says "Ugh!" is an obvious fallacy, according to Dr. Emil Haury, head of the department of anthropology and director of a group of University of Arizona linguists, archeologists and historians who are making an exhaustive investigation into the Papago Indian tribes of the -^uthwest. Dr. Haury describes the' -go Indian as "good-natured, co-operative, well-equipped physically and mentally, yet distinct in appearance from many other southwestern tribes. The study, which may take several years, is. being carried out along definite lines, with one member tracing the archeological history, another making photographs of current Papago customs and another reconstructing the cultural history of the tribe and attempting to trace the effects of contacts with other Indians and the white man. Advice on Success I J. C. Penney, the chain store executive, who commenced with a small shop in Kemmerer, Wyo., in 1902, gave out some advice in an interview recently in Salt Lake City., He said that luck plays no part in success. Intensive training is the key to success. Mr. Penney believes that young men should select • a business where advancement is j not restricted and then apply them-1 selves whole-heartedly to the job. I Mr, Penney seems to be particu-i larly well qualified to give advice on J the subject of success. The venture f into which he put a few dollars in Wyoming 38 years ago now grosses $282,000,000 a year. And Mr. Penney has aided thousands of young men in achieving success. DEAN IMPLEMENT CO.

Thousands of farm owners and tenants will soon be thinking about next year, whether to string along with each other on the same terms, find a new tenant or landlord, or possibly make a new lease. The landlord-tenant relationship is not an easy one. There are many things to irritate one or the. other coming up during the year. A good farm leasee fair to both parties, will not save a landlord-tenant relationship from going sour because of the sins of commission or omission by one or the other, or both, but it will help. Also it generally saves a lot of useless argument. The most simple lease, and one that many tenants and owners prefer, is for straight cash rent. There are instances in which the same family has rented a piece of land for several generations from an owner and his heirs for cash. Such leases are durable where the rental is nominal, the tenant capable and honest, and the owner lenient when crops fail and there is difficulty in getting the money together. In this form of lease, the tenant has maximum freedom in running the farm and the owner has little responsibility. It is the usual kind of lease you find where the owner has moved to California or Florida, takes little or no interest in the farm except the rent check, if any, or when the tenant writes to tell about the roof leaking or the crib going down on one corner and what should he do about it.

"Motor e a r " is an affliction commonly found today among people who make a habit of driving automobiles with the left window rolled, down, according to Dr. A. C.
