On the contrary, it has been due to the definite destructive j H work of Governor Harding and his i * associates of the Federal Reserve Board. One might as well stop the beating of the heart and expect life ** " to continue as to stop the flow of credit and expect business life to continue. But since President Harding and his advisors have taken possession of the machinerv of credit and reversed practically all of the policies of Governor Harding and his associates, and are forcing Governor Harding to issue statements of optie?: mism, the time has come when busi. , ness people of the country can afford to take heart and go forward, knowS ing that they will have the backing of the utmost stretch of power of the present administration.

Returning confidence can be greatly quickened and the day of prosperity hastened by a wide publicity campaign of the business men of the country, such as that which stinmlated all the business interests of the ? country after the Armistice. At that time one department of the Government, w-isely guided, carried on an aggressive campaign to induce merchants and manufacturers to advertise on a larger scale than they had : ever done before. Almost instantly a - great stimulation was given to business. This would have continued with ever-increasing momentum up to the present time but for the work of the Federal Reserve Board in cutk ting off the supply of credit, which i? & : i t Mr?

This would doubtless stimulate all other manufacturing interests to follow, in the same line. | The railroads would never have gotten into the present bad shape if years ago they had intelligently appealed to the public year after year through well-directed, well-worded display advertising in the leading papers of the country. Other corporations might have saved themselves much criticism and great losses if in the same way they had met the public with a bank statement ol" all of their operations .and a frank reply, through intelligently worded adverI tisements, to the criticisms made of their operations. The opportunity for wise advertisj ing is greater today than ever in our ^ *-? 3 o m - | History, c*renter sou ran 17^ plished for individual business interests and for the country at large by comprehensive advertising of the big industries of the country and by merchants and manufacturers, wholesale and retail. It is a very unwise policy for business men to say that they will not advertise because there is no present volume of business justifying it. The way to create the business is to create the spirit of doing things, and each man must act for himself. Every concern that begins a campaign of {advertising in its local paper, as well as in those of national circulation, helps to start the movement which eventually will bring a large volume of business to all. The time to start things is now. This country is too great and too rich, and its resources are too vast to justify American people in sitting down and sucking j their thumbs and bemoaning their fate because business is slack.

V. , line cloths and originators of textile! and pottery decorations of distinc, tion, their achievements in surgery have been given less general recognition than they merit. Amputation of bones was unknown to them, but trephining was of common occurrence, as is still practiced in Bolivia and Peru, where it reached its highest development. It has also been employed in quite j recent times by various groups of the aborigines of both hemispheres, but I in North America has never been found north of Mexico. I Some <?f the prehistoric tribes of i this Continent were familiar with the ' use of splints, as was recently dis-1 ! j covered by investigators from the j !

It is doubtful j 'however, whether the Italians of' I ; i South America knew how to use splints, as so far no positive testi- j mony on the subject has been found.! I In Peru and Bolivia, where stones from slings, the "bola" or "lliua" and wooden clubs with heads of stone and copper were the common offenI sive weapons, complex fracture of the I skull with depression of the bony j I plates must have been very common, j Fracture of the skull sometimes rei suited in almost instant death, but ' .many victims survived wounds of this | sort, and an attempt to remove splin' ters of bone that pricked the brain, 1 or to cut out fragments that pressed j-upon it, must have become, at an j I early date, a natural procedure.

That trephining did occur in sueh cases seems indicated by the fact that trephined skulls have been found which bear no evidence of lesion. For performing the operation, implements of copper and bronze, and knives of stone and obsidian were undoubtedly employed. Rarely, the method of boring was resorted to. To the American Museum also belongs credit for investigations in Peru and Bolivia which revealed much interesting information as to ancient pathology and surgical practices in these regions. Some of the skulls tl-tiiiui /ihto in ml mncr.pni'c workers may now be seen in the Peruvian Hall 01" the museum, on the third floor, ' The skulls exhibited inHude a number of normal ones, a number showing the effects of injuries and pathological conditions, a number of trephined specimens and a number showing various degrees of artificial deformation, a practice in vogue among some of the South American tribes. (They deformed the heads of their infants by applying pressure, probably by means of bandage and pads, or by binding the head J to a board. The result was a flattening the the skull at front and back, j in varying degrees. The frequency J and intensity of such deformation varied with the groups or possibly; I clans of Indians.) Of nearly 1 200 skulls collected on j one museum expedition in Bolivia, I conducted by the late Dr. Adolph j Bandelier. about "? per cent of the skulls had been trephined. The; members of the party discovered, fur- ' therinore, that trephining i* practiced in Bolivia today by medicine men. and not infrequently, since fractures] of the skull occur during every one of the annual or semi-annual engagements fought between neighboring communities and in the drunken brawls accompanying their festivals. The operation is performed with any available cutting instrument, such as a sharp pocket knife or chisel, and the process is one of incision and scrapping. Sometimes the aperture resulting from trephining is covered by a piece of gourd.
