Statement Made Wedrn Convention;;is Approved By Local Physicians, Relative to Cause of Criminals* **â€"*> BREATHE f m •Adenoids in children, caused by the swelling of the adenoid tissue* which prevents a child from breath lug through the nose, la a primary cause of criminal tendencies." This was the keynote of a paper on the "Upper Orifices of the Body/ read by Dr. Eugene Hubbell of* St Paul, Minn., before the American As- sociation of Official Surgeons. North Shore physicians^ afgtee with the statements of Dr. Huhbell. "Adenoids of any affection of tap nasal passages, or of the throat, af- fects the hearing and changes the current of a child's thoughts," said Dr. Hubbell. Air Starvation Hurts Brsin^ ^ "In a chronic cao^^^§0^0^-W^ child may become a mouth breather instead of breathing through the nose. That means that the lungs are not supplied with enough pure oxy- gen. The lack of pure oxygen af- fects the purity of the blood and in turn affects the brain. "In brief, the harpstrlngs of life are out of tune. The child becomes weak, anaemic and nervous. The will is weaker. The mind is ab- normal. The whole character of the victim undergoes a change and the trend is toward criminality. "To operate means for that Victim just what tuning the strings Of the piano means in music. It restores harmony because it restores physical fitness and that brings mental flt- ness. Some orificlal surgeons are really tuners of the human piano. They restore the harpstrlngs of life i to normal tone." Doctors Agree on Danger. Dr. Hubbeirs paper met with al- most unanimous approval by the delegates. I>r^0imP^$$ant ,of Chicago and several surgeons cor- roborated his assertions in their own practice. Dr. E. H. Pratt, professor of surgery in the Hexing Medical college, Chicago, cited a case prov- ing literally the contention of Dr. Hubbell that diseases of the orifices of the body induce criminality.
