1} "DKAD MAN" Hr? 111 New Jersey i I to Physicians J., June 7.?In the j for the insane at here is a patient term* ne, a living deed man* >yster.M The victim is i whet if probably the r known to medifcsl itia praecox catatatonecords )Ut his identity ?, 28, but physicians rei his address or admit really is. >m this mysterious ails pufcxled medical men throughout the world?have been very few??0 few that physician* have had very little opportunity to delve into the cause and cure of the disease. I Famous physicians from all over the world have visited Kade to study his case but returned homo more 1 puzzled than when they first viewed 1 the patient. All of them, however, |i have come to agree that if the patient can be kept alive for six years ' he will recover. i <' Kade was taken to the Cooper hos- i pita! here last November?literally a < living corpse. He was deaf, blind, U paralysed. All his nerves and mus-J clfs were numb, his jaws were aoj1 tightly locked that he had to be fedi1 with liquids by a tube through his I npstrile. Since that time, doctors say, hel has not even twitched an eyelaah. I His heart action, pulse and breathing, however, are normal. Experiments of all kinds have been resort-1 ed to in an effort to rouse his numbed faculties but without result. Physicians now agree that the only thing that can be done is to keep him alive by use of liquid nourishment, for six years when he will recover! the use of his nerves and nuMcles. 1 Dr. Grant Barry, chief of the department of mental diseases of the Philadelphia General hospital, has carefully diagnosed the case and predicts the man will recover if fed for I -six years as he is apparently In nor?| mal physical condition. Dr. Blurry, however, carefully explains that if Kade lives six years 11 he will become possessed of superhuman strength and will have to be ' strapped securely until he recovers. : Needles stuck in the victim's body 1 haVe no effect. Guns -^discharged |.: close to his ears also failed to awaken I the man. Doctors have crossed I Kade's fingers, his legs and tilted his head, to return a week later and find 1 them in the same position they left them. I - . I ; Governor Fuller of Massachusetts, I i has called on heads of Harvard Uni- ' versity, Massachusetts Institute of J < Technology and a former judge of ' probate for aid in reviewing the case I of Nicoli Sanco and Bartolemeo Van- 1 zetti, under sentence of death for al- ' leged murder committed more than i six years ago, and whose cases haven inspired international interest. 11 Winthrop College I SCHOLARSHIP AND ENTRANCE EXAMINATION ^'The examination for the award oil vacant Scholarships in Winthrop College and for admission of new students will be held at every County Court House in the state on Friday, I July 1, and Saturday, July 2, at 9 a.m. This examination will be held whether there are vacant scholarships or not, as vacancies may occur after the ex-J amination.

It ia easy to encourage ltd t practice, but saving i? seldom effect- e ive unless systematically practiced. d thousands of young men and n women enter the business or profes- t> aionai world fully intent upon begin- * ning immediately the amassing of an Q astate. Thousands are the opportun- 3 Ities offered for investing on every V hand. The type of investment, how- t ever, that does not offer a system- f stic program, whether regular or op- t tional, can seldom effectively serve, h The type that does not fit iUelf convsniently into the restricted income, * and does not take into consideration ' the peculiar conditions that surround 11 and often restrain the would-be young * investor; can hardly be of great serv- f ice. ? With steadily increasing living costs; with such a wide assortment of tempting luxuries on every hand, t and with a shockingly increasing a standard of living, the young man or h woman of moderate means absolutely r requires a form of installnp-nt, sys- H tematic saving, or else the germ of J thrift must fight too great an up-hill battle. Now-a-day "he who saves, f must necessarily save systematically." ^ it is that with a full appre- j elation of the trend of the times, the J modern building and loan association i has adapted itself to fit conveniently I into the prevailing conditions. It I offers those of moderate means a form of investment, that is flexible J and can very conveniently be carried t in spite of a small income. It offers an investment, the payments of which fall periodically to suit the income. , It offers a systematic form of investment that is pre-arranged for those who are not systematically inclined. It offers a co-operative form of investment that encourages the investor < by the co-operation of many of his J own friends and associates of similar 5 circumstances, who are mutually c sharing in the same undertaking. ^ Above all, -however, the building and ? loan association furnishes that needed t urge, stimulation, encouragement* or 1 slight compulsion without penalty; * that wards off the dangers of tempt- J ing luxuries, and keeps the investor j steadfastly in the straight and narrow i path that leads to success. ] Too much cannot be said in the 1 praise of the service rendered human- j ity by the building and loan idea. It has for years served to build our communities literally. It is now * serving to build and stabilize the wealth of our communities. It offers not only the opportunity, but supports that opportunity by a program of education that unites the community into one mutual band of builders and investors. We as individuals have each year invested many millions" of dollars through the building and loan associations of the nation in an effort to build homes for ourselves and friends. f A prospective native bridegroom in Madagascar must stand before a spearman who throws a sharp-pointed shaft at him. He must evince no fear but must catch the weapon between him arm and his side. Popular Seashore Excursion to Virginia Points Friday, June 17, Southern Railway System.
