Disease With Unknown Cause

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D. ONE of the moat challenging diseases known to science. ulcerative colitis, ha* no far defied all at tempt a to find either its cause or ita cure. That is not to say that nobody with this disorder gets well or that treatment accomplishes nothing. Far from it. But as is always the case where the exact cause of a disease remains undiscovered, no completely satisfactory form of treatment has yet been wArked out. Colitis simply means inflamma tion of the entail or large intestine. In ulcerative colitis, sores, which can he plainly seen during an examination with the proctoscope, form along the walls of the bowel The (proctoscope is a tube with an electric light bulb on the cod of it From time to time a good many different opinions have been ad reared as tn why certain people should be afflicted la this way Home enperis believe Infection may be at the root of the trouble, bet no germ that la definitely responsible has been found.

Joe Louis* retirement from the prize fight ring opens the way for younger challengers. The Brown , Bomber retained his crown by a knockout victory over Jersey Joe Wolcott, who also is too old to fight. Louis used keen strategy in waiting for the one-halt minute opening of the 32 minutes devoted to fighting to catch Wolcott off guard. Those who listened to the championship bout realized thut Louis put in punches at the right moment and the challenger went down. Louis retires with honor as a good fighter and American. o 0— — Along with ali of these conventions, prize fights, the cold-war and humidity, tomes the prediction that this section of the conntry will be infested heavily by grasshoppers. The Purdue Ex perimental Station recommends the use of “Cblordaw." a new in secticide that nill destroy the l>ests. This material was used a (year ago on Mormon crickets in the northwest and It has been found that the insecticide can be used as effectively on the grass hoppers. o o— There is unrest in Canada. The* Ontario elections cut the majority of the government party, the Progressive Conservatives, reducing their number of seats from 65 to 53. The Liberals stayed at 12, ( but the Co-operative Common wealth Federation, a sort of Socialist party, rose from eight to 22. Thue, both Liberals and Progressive Conservatives received a blow. Canada has been rather static in its politics. The two major parties differ far less than our own Democrats and Republicans. The growing CCF vote, combined with the imminent retirement of Canada's long-time premier, Mackenzie King, may indicate the dawning of a new day. _ —fl —Q— _ Voters in French township by a decisive vote favored the consolidation of their schools with the Bente school system. The vote in the special election was 174 to 99 in favor of consolidation. The township does not have a high school and evidently the majority of the voters felt that It could not afford to construct a building or embark in that branch of education. even if it continued its grade schools. A fiveqierson board will dir<Mt the Berne-French township consolidation, and assurance has been given that ample facilities will be provided the children. For the present, temporary buildings will be erected and citizens of both communities are confident that the adopted plan will prove satisfactory. It is a new step in school operation in the county.

He took her around with htan to the next affair his own crowd was giving —a steak party at the Priests'. When it occurred to him that this would be a good chance to keep Carol amused for an evening. he har* asked Helen if be might bring an extra gtri. "Sure.” she said ever the phone, with an air of humorous resignation. "Why not ? I'm ~oing to have another extra girl anyhow, why not two?” But when he would have backed out, she indignantly refused to let him. "Bring her along." dhe said at once.

And to think I should have cussed your nousewarming party, which everyone says was the socia. event of the spring! .., You would have asked me it 1 had been here, wouldn't you?" “Os course." Andrew said at once, uneasily conscious ot the slight stiffening of Joan at his side. Mary laid her hand on his srm. "And you will come and see me while I'm up here visiting, won't you? You're the first likely male who's settled around here for centuries!" "Hear! Hear!” Alec cried. Tou’re even excluding your own ancestors, Mary?" "Os coarse," she laughed. Her laugh was high, and had a tinkling quality. They were Just dull" Surprisingly, Mary Roland and Carol took to one C noth er at once. Whether it waa admiration and a desire to emulate on Ca.-ol’s part, and an amused tolerance on > Mary's part, Andrew could .not , make out. But he was relieved to , see that Carol could be interested m another girt. Although, tn th« games which followed the meal, Mary made a point of trying to , get Andrew for her partner, he managed to stay by Joan's aide, and the two girls had to team up , instead. Even then he saw that . Mary took it with apparent good , grace. Not so with Carol She was I frankly irkvd by most of the . crowd. Andrew excused her rather I obvious boredom by telling himt self that, after all most of them l were considerably older than she and, what was worse, most ot them were married. She did not really fit in, and be knew that I part ot her rebellion stemmed from a feeling of tineasmess. Yet he did I net know what else to do for her aa this waa the only group he , knew at all well in Branfield. i She sat quietly beside him on . the way home, after they had left 1 loan at her bouse.
