...young Canadian has now gained practically all the scientific and financial honors possible. He will have a life income of at least $15,000, besides other fat perquisites, enabling him to devote all his time to productive medical research. It is no disparagement to Dr. Banting's admitted genius and modesty to say that scores of other comparatively little known scientists, who may not have made so spectacular a ten-strike but have produced a constant stream of valuable research, deserve equal recognition and reward...
Finally, Miss Lord. A magnificent fallen angel in Anna Christie, her histrionic range stopped far short of the ethereal quality of Launzi. Furthermore, she is not suited to the part either in face or figure. Fat angels are unimpressive...
...Tiny fell into a batting-slump and Judith refused to ETO to Cuba with him after the World's Series because she could not get a passport except in her married name.

When female rats were raised (by Doctors Evans and Bishop) on a standard synthetic diet used in animal laboratories, containing vitamins A and B, they became fat, sleek and healthy, but practically all of them were sterile. When fresh green lettuce leaves were added to their menu, the sterile rats produced litters. Drs. Evans and Bishop found this X-substance also in the whole-wheat grain, egg yolk, beef liver and some other foods, but not in milk, the otherwise perfect food. The absence of Vitamin X affects the reproductive powers of the male, as well as the female...
