Health Talks on Fungal Ear Infections by Dr Bundesen
Dr Bundesen explains widespread fungal infections of the external ear, noting wartime experience by Dr Ben L Bryant showing recurrence after standard treatments. A thorough cleansing of the ear canal is essential, followed by drying, cotton pledgets with sulfathiazole, and potential X ray if swelling is marked. Pain relief may be needed during acute inflammation before treating the fungus itself.

Was love an international defense matter and a book review mix
The excerpt critiques a view of national defense by likening it to a romance novel and a staged argument about armed force. It notes the author’s call for a United Nations army and argues the text contrasts disarmament with wartime necessity. The piece then reviews Marmilian’s Love Affair by Jean Marmilian as a light, breezy 1910s tale about a governess who wins a lottery, meets a lavish artist, and experiences swift, unserious romance with no moral weight. It also references baseball stories and sport volumes by Read Smith.
