- Job of Purifying Blood yi tally Important

BY Herman N. Bundesen. Normally, about of the total blood flows through the kidney each minute. At the end of a day this hard-working organ has urified some 800 ganons of blood, 1 out and excreting the waste products of the body’s complicated chemical processes. Tlvese wastes are poisonous and ©it the kidney fails at its task they pile up in the blood stream to poison the whole body, sometimes fatally. Failure of the kidney action may result from some disturbance of the circulation through the kidney. It may also occur because the flow of urine is blocked or as a result of some infection of the kidney. < The chief cause of blocking of the flow of the urinedin men is enlargement of the prostate gland with resulant narrowing of the outlet from the bladder. In women, blocking may restilt from scar tissue formation around the neck of the bladder which, in turn, is produced by previous inflammation in the pelvic reproductive organs. In children, the obstruction or block ing of the flow of the urine is usually due to some abnormal condition present at the time of birth. Any blocking of the flow of the urine sooner or later damages the kidney tissue because Os back pressure. Furthermore, in such instances. infection is likely to occur. Any change it} the general circulation may alter the circulation through the kidney. Thus kidney circulation is lessened because of low blood pressure which may be produced by shock. The circulation through the kidney may be slowed down whw there is lots of blood due ’to severe hemorrhage. The loss of fluid from the body which

Natural- . ly, there has been reaction, as the t Indianapolis Star, comments, "If we legalize gambling <Jjn Indiana 1 we'll be turning our state govern- , ment over to the gambling and saloon : o 0 It seems that British Field Marshall Montgomery committed a great blunder in his book relating to the final stages in the 'European war. The world knows that Great Britain had ggjy the remuan® of any army after" Dunkerque and that it wa^American G. l.'s who turned the table and slugged it through Germany and over the RJiine.

The battle of Normandy, the Ardennes, Bastogne, thefjjiistoric crossing of the Rhine, all were carried through by American G. I.’s, to their credit and glory. © o— —o College Problem: " 19ie camnus crowd Is getting itself ready to return to the halls of learning, Smd, happy care-free mood. Few will be concerned with the heavy economic confronting administra-i tors in thoSe collies. War's end, that increased demand for college’s academic and physical retirees, has also broaight about a shrinkage in large '' V -' gifts. War-born govern riSßngh axes dried up such sources whether from wealthy individuals or corporations. War have lowered returns front existing college endowments. To meet such deficiencies most institutions have raised fees, but with a still remaining hiatus between outgo and income. T4re costs to soar to the point where only the wealthy or the refew brilliant scholarship candidates are to receive higher training? Or are colleges to by grants at the risk of academic freedom? The giving of more gifts of mod- £ ..esj. proportions by more givers, thus broadening the giving base, is one way to help. Even so, such a system must be widened beyond thinking to insure enough funds. And this would not meet the vaster monies needed for projects as medical education and research. ® The subject touches the very heart of the American of life.

According to Drs. Stanley E. e Bradley and Donald L. Anderson of ' Boston University, in many case's, the use of drugs to stimulate kid--1 n ss> y action and?,he lessening of fluid f iffiake are not satisfactory forms ‘of treatment. ' Instead, they rely particularly on 1 the use of fluids and suggest that 8 about two quarts of fluids be given '' by mouth and* one quart by injpc--8 tion into a vein in each 24 hours. 1 The mixture may, be of salt solu- *' tion and glucose, a sugar solution. Too •’much salt in the diet should f not be allowed. ■ In addition to the giving of fluids, d an effort should be made to clear - up present in the uri, inary tract and also to relieve the i- blocking of the urine flew if poss sible. In some cases, this may ree quire operative procedures. ii Nothing better illustrates the ti marvelous construction of the hu- • man body than the kidney s elabos rate filteration plant. It is one i- which man has never equalled for i. economy and efficiency iy any of e his most ingenious inventions. e Questions and Answers i- E D.: What can Ido to improve i- my circulation? Answer: To improve your circui- lation measures: exercise modera ately in the outdoors daily; get f plenty of fresh air and sunshine, f as well as'rest and sleep; eat a well e balanced diet containing an abundi ance of vegetables asj fruit, wholei grain '•ereals. and milk, with meat 1 and eggs in moderate amounts, s You should take from four to eix glassfuls of water daily.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE MIDGE had no particular illusions about working. She disliked the shop, she disliked Madame Alfrege, she disliked the eternal sub; servience to ill-tempered and inyr polite customers, but she doubted very much whether she could obtain any other job which she would like better, since she had none of the @ Edward’s as§.umptio!sthat a wide range of choiefe was open to her was simply unbearably irritating this morning. What right had Edward to live in a world so divorced from reality? They were Angkatells, all of them! And she—was only half an Angkatell! And sometimes, like this morning, she did not feel like an Angkatell at all! She was all her father’s daughter. She thought of her father tffth the usuaA pang of love and compunction/ a gray-haired, middleaged man with a tired face. A man who had struggled for years, running a small family business that was bound, for all his care and efforts, to go slowly down the hill. It was not incapacity on his part—it was the inarch of progress. Strangely enough, it was not to her brilliant mother but to her quiet tired father that Midge's devotion had always been given. Each time, when she came back, f“om those visits to@Ainswick, which were the wild delight of her life, she would answer the faint deprecating question in her father’s tired face by flinging her arms around his neck and saying, “I'm glad to ©be home—l’m glad to be home.” Her mother had died when Midge was thirteen. Sometimes, Midge realized that she knew very little about her mother. She had been vague, charming, gay. Had she regretted “ her marriage, the marriage that had taken her outside the circle of the Angkatell clan? Midge had no idea. Her father had grown grayer and quieter after his wife’s death. His struggles against the extinction of his business had grown more unavailing. He had died quietly and inconspicuously when Midge was eighteen. Midge had stayed with various Angkatell relations, had accepted presents from the Angkatells, had had good times with the Angkatells, but she had refused to be financially dependent on their good will. And much as she loved them, there were times such as these, when she felt suddenly and violently divergent from them. She thought with rancor, they don’t know anything! Edward, sensitive as always, was looking at her with a puzzled face. He asked gently: “I’ve upset you ? Why ?” Lucy drifted into the room. She was in the middle of one of her conversations. —“you see, one doesn’t really know whether she’d prefer the i White Hart to us or not.” Midge looked at her blankly— I then at Edward. “H’s no use looking at Edward,” said Lady Angkatell. “Edward 1 simply wouldn’t know; you, Midge, are always so practical.” “I don’t know what you are talking q.bput, Lucy.” Lucy looked surprised.
