Would You Call These Things Art? nials a mixture of foods containing no protein but to which had been added all of the 21 amino acids then known The animals receiving such a mixture declined rapidly in weight and even tually died, he explained, this WAS interpreted as indicating the presence In proteins of a hitherto unknown component which was essential to lite With that in mind a search began for the substance in question. The search was rewarded with the recent isolation of this new acid. When it and the 21 previously known ones are added to an otherwise normal diet, but one which lacks proteins, normal growth and weight are produced. This is the first time on record that animals have grown on mixtures of highly purified acids In place of proteins. « Dr. Rose s of the opinion that this discovery will make it possible to determine which of the twenty-two amino acids present in proteins are necessary for life and which are non-essential. By the use of a diet carrying all, the amino acids may be dropped out one at a time, and the effect of each upon growth accurately determined. This" work is already in progress and will teauire possibly another two years for completion. After that has been- done, Dr. Rose and his staff expect to determine the quantity of all the amino acids which are required for normal growth. It is probable, he thinks, that when such information has been obtained, it may prove to be of clinical value in that the essential amino acids may be administered intravenously to patients who, because of stomach ulcers or other illness, are unable to consume food In the normal fashion.

A new skin dlslrifectlng solution three*hundred and fifty times as powerful in killing germs as phenol, or carbolic acid and three times as powerful as tincture of ibdine, yet costing only $l.CQ per gallon to manu facture in the laboratory, has been ileveloped by the University .of Illinois. The announcement is considered important because of its economies to hospitals and clinics where surgical work requires large quantities of such solutions. The work is that of Doctors Lloyd Arnold and J. A. Vaichulis of the University's Department of Bacteriology arid Public Health. "Tills is a simple solution,says the announcement. "It can be Itaade up by any nurse or anyone with ele mentary chemical training. It keeps indefinitely. It should be used the same way as tincture of Iodine, mercurochrome, and such disinfectants in common use. All unnecessary and unessential Ingredients have been eliminated. "It contains fifty per cent of ethyl alcohol and varying proportions of acetone, mercuric chloride,, hydrochloric add, chrysoldln Y, and distilled water. "Each chemical added was done so for a definite purpose. Alcohol was put In to Increase penetration and carry the mercuric chloride Into the Innermost skin layer, into the opening ?f sweat glands and down around the sheaths of the hairs. Alcohol is also itself a disinfectant, but Foo weak to be. trustworthy. Acetone was added to remove the fat always present in the *kin, hydrochloric acid to convert all of the mercuric chloride (corrosive sublimate) Into Its highest germ kllll.ng efficiency, coloring matter to show the 'field' or area of skin that - has been disinfected. The dye chosen Is of itself a good disinfectant and fades out In 24 .hours. Elghty-flVe dyes were tried. "We prepare this new compound for one dollar and sixty cents per gallon in our laboratory. If large quantities of ingredients are purchased, the price would be lower. Tincture of iodine (U. 3. P.) costs approximately four dollars and three per cent tincture of iodine costs two dollars and slxty-flve cents per gallon. The prices quoted us from various sources for tinctures of metaphen, merthiolate, and mercurochrome were over twenty dollars per gallon. "This new compound has been used as the disinfectant in 300 cases of gunshot, automobile accidents, and other similar emergency hospital cases.

Mr. and Mrs. Schiessle made their headquarters at Braden Castie, a camp of about 200 cottages, a store, recreation hall, etc., built around the ruins of an old castle just three miles from Bradenton and between St. Petersburg an<* Sarasota on the west coast. . Michael Neary, who has a summer cottage at Mineral Springs on Fox river, and spends his winters in Florida, was their host part of the time. Several sight-seeing trips were taken, including a trip to the east coast, with a stop at Roseland, on to Miami, where a day and night were spent and along the Tami&mi trail to return to Braden Castle. They also visited Orlando, but did hot find the Overtons at home, and called on Fred Justen at Palmetto, live miles from Braden Castle. Mrs. Schiessle, an ardent baseball .fan, saw four ballgames played by 'the St Louis Cardinals at their train- ! ing camp at Bradenton and a per- | formance of Ringling Bros. Circus at •Sarasota was enjoyed. i Once a year the circus gives a performance put on by its best talent at its winter quarters in Florida with' its many acts put Oil in one ring, giv-: ing the spectators an opportunity to enjoy every detail of the performance, lliis particular performance was put on for the benefit of St. Martha's church and realized $1,600 in the one night. Although during the first part of their visit the weather was cold and rainy, the days became warm and pleasant and the weather most enjoyable. Even though the days become very warm the temperature cools as soon as the sup sets. The trip home was made via U. S. Route 41, with Mr. and Mrs. Schiessle leaving Florida Wednesday at 2 p. m.# and arriving in McHenry at 7:30 p. m., Friday, covering a distance of 1,497 miles. Their trip was hastened somewhat because of radio reports of flood waters at Evansville, Ind., where the McHenry residents were scheduled to cross the Ohio river. Although the water -was very high at this point, witb about 100 men digging a trench along Route 41 to carry the water away, no trouble was experienced and the highway was clear. Swiming was one of the^main diversions of the Florida visit and Mr. and Mrs. Schiessle both returned with a good sun tan. KBAUBK F0&OKA8BS , MeHENBTICEOO, Arthur |>. Krause, until recently employed at the Standard filling station on Riverside Drive, has bought the ice business from his father-inlaw, M. J. Baur, and will be prepared to give the best of servica to old and new customers this summer. M. J. Baur conducted the ice business in McHenry for twenty years, starting with horses and wagon and selling only natural ice, as artificial ice was then unknown. He always filled two houses with ice from the mill pond and bought additional ice to supply his customers from Brand's ice house at McCollum lake, continuing successfully until about two years ago when hig health failed and the business was taken over by his son) Alvin. The present owner of the business, Arthur Krause, has been employed at the Standard Oil filling station for the past six years. He will have three trucks in use, assuring his customers of good service, and will sell both natural and artificial ice. The greater part of the natural ice is vised in supplying wholesale trade, while artificial ice is used in private homes. Arthur is the Son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert ^Krause of this city, sjid, having always lived here, is well known by everyone. „ Announcement FOR PRECINCT COMMITTBBMAJf I hereby announce my '••Tv*Hary for the office of Republican Precinct Committeeman, in McHenry No. 3, and ask your support at the Primary Election to be held Tuesday, April 14§ *42-5 HAROLD F.
