Harrisburg May 26 Farm 273 urged by Miles Horst secretary of agriculture to be safety conscious as hundreds of high school boys and girls soon join farms.

Daily Dozen From the Medical Society of Pennsylvania
Most intellectual prodigies burn out early in life. Not so with Robert Burns Weadward. He entered MIT at 16. He earned a B degree in three years and a PhD in tow. At 24, Weadward was an instructor in chemistry at Harvard. Dr William H Doering is another bright young man running as an instructor in organic chemistry at Columbia. These men, at 27, have made a remarkable discovery. They have succeeded in duplicating quinine. Tests are under way to determine its medicinal value. If it controls malaria, these youths become immortal.
