1 Improper Nutrition Moy Cause Heart Ills

By Herman N Bundesen, M. 0 t TIME after time I have stressed r the value of good nutrition — the j Importance to health of all the I vitamins, mineral* right kinds of proteins, and other food elements f found In a well-balanced diet. And t If these things are nect-ssarv in i sufficient quantity to maintain < health, they are doubly needed In < regaining it after it has been im i paired hy Illness Thus, nothing is I more important In the treatment of any patient than the keeping up i of his nutrition I Protein, essential in health for 1 the repair of worn-out tissues and I for tissue growth, is demanded in illness because it speeds up the ‘ healing of tissue damaged by in jury pr disease Vitamin C is also necessary for wound healing and scar tissue formation. Because of these facts. Dr Ralph W. Trimmer and Dr. Clayton J. Lundy made a study of over SM patients during a sii-year period From this group. 123 patients were selected who had heart disease. | About one-fifth were suffering from coronary thrombosis, a con-1 dition tn which blocking of the flow of blood through the coronary arteries results In damage to tissue of the heart Itself. The painstaking study of these patients Included a determination of the amount of protein in the blood, as well as the amount of vitamin C present It Is interesting to note that about one-fourth of the patients who had heart disease, due to tome condition other than coronary thrombosis, had a deficiency of both vitamin c and protein in the blood, while twothirds of those with coronary thrombosis showed low blood levels of these impartant food sub•ttgeu Thus j*uy p*t:tat» heart dtaooo« sea*. to saffar tress «

Decatur's public library is to be given the "new look’ in decorating and lighting improvements, which I. will be completed during the sumt mer months. This popular haven for those who enjoy books and the • moments of relaxation from readt ing, eaters to hundreds of our people each week The decorating of t the interior will be in tones that fuse with the new lighting arrangements and will be appreciated by youth and adult who use the reading and reference rooms. h —o ——Q —■ — A story in the Saturday Evening Post explains that the Democrats ; were the first to hold political • conventions, the first being in 1832. followed by the Republican* in 1356. The programs were siml- ; lar to those of today, except that • the radio didn’t bring the nominating and seconding speeches The conventions arc a composite of American life, but Since more people listen to the broadcasts than attend the meetings, it is likely that programs will be streamlined in future gatherings for the pleasure of those at the rudto. ——-o o— — The point at issue in the strike in the "captive" coal mines is a point of law It is the question whether a union shop clause in the proposed contract is legal. The point at issue is one which could be settled by a competent court of civil law Why. then has a strike occurred'* The public has a right to be critical of such a work stoppay.. since steel production is a matter of vital public coni em In such a situation both Industrial and union offlt lais have a responsibility to demonstrate their good faith and th<-ir competence for leadership. — -o—— o

f p— IF The school boy play of the poll ticians who tried to nominate Gen • ral Eisenhower over President Truman ha'- fallen flat and those in the grandstand evidently have gone to the showers. Mr. Truman is entitled to the nomination and the tena ity shown hy him proves I that he can put up a good fight. If j we look back over the i>a»t three i years, it can readily l>e seen that President Truman has not done a poor job. Strikes have been settled. employment and prosperity have increased and the federal -debt has been reduced Those who . were after his political scalp had a selfish motive in view. o o Five states have women super intendents of public instruction. I They are Colorado. lowa. MonI tana. Nevada and Wyoming

a nutritional deficient y. and it i minght even be concluded that im- 1 proper nutrition plays some role I in producing heart trouble. Protein is supplied hy such foods as meat, milk, and eggs, as well a« whole grain cereals Vita min C is supplied principally by i citrus fruits and tomatoes. Os | course, it is possible to get •vitamin C in a concentrated form, that Is. tablets of ascorbic ar id. It would seem important in cases of heart disease that an effort be made to supply the patletits with large amounts of the right kind of protein in the diet and that vitamin C also be administered. This is particularly important in patients suffering from coronary thrombosis tn order that repair of damaged heart tissue may be speeded The right kinds of proteins are those that supply the ten amino acids which cannot be mt de in the body. Os course, all other necessary food parts should be supplied by | giving a well-balanced diet The ! physician will determine juut what I oiet should be followed in some instances, it might be necessary to supplement natural foods by giving protein hydrolysates which are mixtures of amino acids made from proteins. The physician will also decide which of these prepara tlons should be employed and how they should be administered QUESTIONS ANO ANSWERS D D O.: I have been bothered! with itching skin for several rttn. There is no rash. What can be done for this’ Answer The first thing tn do is to find tbe cause of the itching.

CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN ANDREW said Importantly, ticking the items off on his fingers, "1 have hamburgers, hot dogs, bacon (of a sort), the tag end of a ham, and some sort of sausage which I haven't had the courage to investigate personally.” “Andrew Paulson!" Helen cried, aghast, "ll'hat did you use on the butchers? Their own cleavers?” “Probably a scissors lock and a judicious thumb tn the eye," Alec said, brightening. “Do you really mean it? Golly, now I'll be wasting time by trying to decide which one I want, and everybody will get ahead of me. Where Is it?” “I'vh been accumulating this meat for days and days. 1 bought a little here and there, and stored it in Mrs. Potts' refrigerator, and got the promise of some more—by bribery, not force, I'd have you

know, Alec—and the bacon I ac- 1 quired by sheer strength of per- J sonalitp.” Mrs. Woodford (and husband) ' arrived. Andrew turned to greet i them, and found the Rolands com- < ing up from the street, bowed I under heavy burdens. "Good Lord!" i he cried. "We can't eat that much corn relish!” i Cecile shook her head at him. “It’S a good thing George is in i your confidence, or 1 don't know what would have happened to this party. Do you know you forgot all stout a dessert?" Andrew groaned, and clasped his head tn both hands. "So I did! I'll run down town right now and bring back some ice cream and some—some ” He faltered. “Some what?" they chorused. "Some—cake?” It was a ques-

tion. ' •There Isn’t * thing left at the bakery—l looked. Just no that 1 could make you miserable by telling you," George said. “But what do you think all thia truck is?" "Ice cream T" Andrew said hopefully, going forward to relieve George of his bundles. "And cake!" Cecile said proudly. "The little woman spent the entire afternoon. I'll have you know," George informed them, “bowed over the stove." "Oh, pood.'" Mrs. Woodford exclaimed. "If they're Cecile's cakes, they'll be delicious! I didn't kaow Andrew would forget the dessert, but 1 did think of bringing seme mints. Where are they, Huntley ?" "In your left hand," her husband answered with a weary twinkle. "So they are! I am getting so absent-minded. Give me a Utils longer, and I'll forget who 1 am! You know, 1 think this is a wonderful idea. Andrew. U s just cool enough to enjoy wearing wool and gathering around a fire. But the middle of September eon be awfully cold when the sun goes down, and 1 aope everybody brought plenty of wraps." "It s going to be light for quite a while," Andrew said then. “And J thought those of you who were hers aught hks to go through the hcwee haw, and see it wb£e wo w •• • • w ■ •

Sometimes I say to Huntley, 'Why don't we give up that huge mausoleum we live in and find something cosy and etuy to care for . . " Her voice died away, and Huntley Woodford chuckled. "Can you see her in a small house?” he asked Andrew. "She d have the walls bulged out and the roof pushed ofi the first day ... By the way, 1 hear you ve got the i rest of the loan you wanted. Where are you going to place the next ! house?” I Andrew grinned. "Now that I have some money to work with, I I'll be building several at a time,”

he said. "It's cheaper that way, i you know.” 1 Woodford gazed around him 1 with approval. "You've got a 1 handsome setting here, DclacourL ‘ And I'll never get over my surprise that Eph let you have it for i so little. 1 always thought ” i But Andrew interrupted him. He i said, with something' like a sigh I of relief, "What did you call me, i sir?" i "Delacourt,” Woodford said calmly. "I've been meaning to tor some time, but I thought you'd want to get established first" "You're right And It’s time I let my friends know my real name," Andrew said. "You've no idea what a satisfaction it u to know that they are my friends—the friends of Andrew Paulson.” Then curiosity got the better of

him. "How did you find out?" "It was at your housewarming," Woodford said with a reminiscent smile. “Bigelow—l gather he had been your valet or butler, or something of the sort—called you 'Mr. Paul,’ and 1 got curious. I recalled about when you had come to town, and 1 looked in the back flies of our Boston papers-Mrs. Woodford always keeps them for at least su months. It's a fire hazard, but she claims she might want to clip something—and 1 had no trouble discovering that Paul Andrew Dei- , acourt had disappeared in early ■ March. The pictures fit you. and , the biographical sketch mentioned i your architectural training, it was as easy as that" I “Ogden Sayre too." Andrew admitted. T suppose I'm > lucky that more people didn't But i I'm glad neither of you mentioned ! it I've had a—a very revealing . experience these six months as I Andy Paulson. I wouldn't give it I up tor anything." • "What wouldn’t you give up?" - Joan said behind him and he , whirled to greet her and her l mother, bis eyes shining.

Do you think ■ it would be safe to let him out?” - "Why, of course," Andrew said, ® surprised into asking, "But how did you happen to bring him in the first place?” He couldn't ;magme Mrs. Potts sharing the close confines of a car with a cateven Joe.
