The en.aoct•ine 'glands secrete sub-

control obesity. and the size to which

The secretions usually are obtained
from animals; whoseendocrines cor-
respond 'closely eto' those: of '.humans:
The 'chemist's role -the next step -
is to sy-nthesize the hormones, to,riiake
them up .artificially in the laboratory.
