Pole Cat Sole Resident
of Town That Was to Be
Lofton, Texas.—The sole resident
of Lofton is a polecat; the sole struc-
ture of the “city” is a white sign
bearing the word “Lofton,” reared
high over the plains.
But despite this paucity of citizens
and absence of buildings Lofton ap-
pears on all good Texas maps, 1s on
a good railroad, has a first-class high-
way at its front door and is distin-
guished by a grassy lawn that covers
the whole town.
The town, in fact, is one of those
lost hopes that sometimes spring from
the coming of a railroad. The ground
was laid off as a townsite, but the
town never materialized. That was
13 years ago. The railroad was built.
the highway was constructed, the
town was named, but nobody settled
there except the beautifully striped
cat. This animal has been there so
long that he is accepted as an insti-
tution and remains a solitary ruler of
his domain.
Yodling Lost Art in
Switzerland Mountains
Lucerne—VYodling is a lost art in
Switzerland. Shepherds and farm
hands look askance at American tour-
ists who ask them to yodle., A party
of tourists visiting Switzerland re-
peatedly asked natives for a yodle or
two. None responded. They all looked
puzzled. Suddenly, just around a bend
on the main road, came the thrilling
notes of a perfect yodle and the vis-
itors hurried to get a glimpse of the
‘erformer. He proved to be a lusty
\merean tourist.

PRESSE HE BULLETIN
BY DR. DAVID H. REEDER
More about Germs: —Because he
is a most interesting writer and
states facts in a clear and convine-
manner I am going to quote more
from Dr. George Starr White's ex-
cellent book on “Un-health.”
dolph Virchow, the famous German
scientist, that germs do not cause
any un-health, but are the result of
that un-health,
I am often asked what causes this
prove this and that in all manners
of un-health. My reply is to the
effect that in Nature there are
many things that we do not under-
stand, butrthat is no reason why we
should say we do not understand
any of Nature’s Laws.
I do not pretend to be

that germs cause

reasons for all un-healthy condi-
tions. Just because I cannot ex-
plain is no reason why I should give
a cause, which seems to be the most
unreasonable of all—“germs.”

Nature is not at fault because
we starve our bodies from natura’
food, sunlight and air. Nature is
not thoughtless because we live in
big cities, Nature should not be
blamed because scores of families
occupy the same apartment house
and have to go up and down stairs
Nature does not polute our air with
motor-gas or distract our nerves
with awful brain-ranking noises
Nature does not prevent our

civilization.”
As long as we seem to be obliged
to endure these Un-Natural condi-
tions, we must plan a system of pro-
cedure that will give us the most
health possible under these Un-
Natural conditions.
With the belief that congestion
and inuammation are the prim
causes of all un-health, I shall dis-
cuss health first by discussing Alim-
