MAKES PROGRESS IN .^ TREATING CRIPPLES Harriabarg. — Dr. Theodore B Appel, SecreUry of Health, today announced Pennsylvania Is making J, * progress In it* new preventative me- ff thod of treating paralyzed and crip¬ pled children. The bathing pools at Mont Alto and Cresson SUte tuber¬ culosis sanatoriums are being utilizej at present. Later on tlie Crippled CliUdrens Hospital at Elizabethtown will become tlie center of tliib impor¬ tant e.\i)erimenUl work. The system being tried oul in • Peimsylvania is similar to the otif employed at Warm Springs, Ga. It is ba.sed on tlie premise tiiat vic- tiin.> ot infantile paralysis can fjwim their way back to liealth.

In this way tliey slowly regain their muscular strength This activity, wliich ninhsages in ad¬ dition, also serves to prevent deforni- * aties which miglit otherwise occur, Tlie Pennsylvania work is .stili in tlie experimental i>tagc, but nl- re»xly many unfortunate children *Snave been benefited, A number whj ^ould neitlier walk or sit up when admitted to tlie State sanatoriums can swim and walk awhile in tlie warm pool.

Dewey said re¬ cently tliat a nunit)er of inquiries had reached tlie Department concerning the origin of tlie delicacy. Some re¬ search work developed stories In-^ dicating that the pretzel had its birth in Germany and that origi¬ nally it was known as a "prayer ^ cake", the shape representing the arms folded as in prayer. A few days ago a correspondent in Clayton, Missouri wrote to the De¬ partment and said tliat orlginaUy the pretzel was known as the^ "bretzeln." The writer said that, I centuries ago, pretzels had tlieir I orgin in the forest regions of south- jern Germany, that they were eaten only during Holy Week and that they were given their peculiar shape in order to .suggest the knots of rope tied about Christ hands at the time of His crucifixion. Eating these Uttle I salty products of the baker's art was considered only as part of the reli¬ gious observance of the time, the wTiter added. | Thus another "orgin of the prct-^ zel story has been added to the 1 others.

Dewey said re¬ cently tliat a nunit)er of inquiries had reached tlie Department concerning the origin of tlie delicacy. Some re¬ search work developed stories In-^ dicating that the pretzel had its birth in Germany and that origi¬ nally it was known as a "prayer ^ cake", the shape representing the arms folded as in prayer. A few days ago a correspondent in Clayton, Missouri wrote to the De¬ partment and said tliat orlginaUy the pretzel was known as the^ "bretzeln." The writer said that, I centuries ago, pretzels had tlieir I orgin in the forest regions of south- jern Germany, that they were eaten only during Holy Week and that they were given their peculiar shape in order to .suggest the knots of rope tied about Christ hands at the time of His crucifixion. Eating these Uttle I salty products of the baker's art was considered only as part of the reli¬ gious observance of the time, the wTiter added. | Thus another "orgin of the prct-^ zel story has been added to the 1 others.
