...Ancient is the topical application of heat for medicinal purposes-Hippocrates' hot douche, hot baths, poultices, hot water bottles. The physiological basis for the body-heating vogue is the recently recognized fact that fever is the result of the body's effort to destroy disease. Hence fever should be judiciously encouraged and seldom, but never hysterically, fought. In 1917 Julius Wagner von Jauregg of Vienna, experimenting with artificial fevers induced by deliberately infecting patients with malaria, found that such artificial fevers brought about improvement and occasionally cures in the cases of people whose brains had been softened...

Greece. Dr. Theodore Leslie Shear of Princeton has been directing diggers in Greece since 1911, in Athens since 1931. He has laid bare the ancient Athenian agora (market place), brought to light a multitude of priceless relics (TIME, Jan. 1, 1934). Last month, 50 ft. below the site of the Senate, near the Acropolis, he came upon a Mycenaean cemetery which he dated at 1500 B. C. Surrounded by wine jars, remains of food and clothing, many of the skeletons were almost perfectly preserved. U. S. Minister to Greece Lincoln MacVeagh, something of an archeologist himself, thought the find might...
...Ontario, stretching from the Ottawa River to the Manitoba prairies; from Niagara Falls to Hudson Bay. Within its 400,000 sq. mi. are one-third of Canada's population; one-half of Canada's industry. Almost every known mineral except coal lies beneath Ontario's geologically ancient hills. And that fact has given rise to the greatest public power enterprise in the capitalist world-the Ontario Hydro-Electric Power Commission. Last week "Hydro" found itself in the thick of a furious politico-economic fight which stirred the whole Dominion...
