This is a mere matter of 80,000 words. With many Christians, their memorizing is limited to the Apostle's creed and the Lord's prayer.
——o o President Truman in asking con gress to do something about the continued high cost of living, said "It may not be true that a ‘boom is always followed by a bust,' as many students of business affairs frequently say. But it would be reckless to assume that the bust will not happen if we neglect action to control the boom.’’ We Americans do funny things, sometimes punishing ourselves for unsound economic steps. Since price control was thrown out of the window, the general cost of living has been boosted 51 hillion dollars, or an average of 11,400 per family. The total would have paid for two or three Marshall plans ——O—o Adams county investors purchased 355,500 in government G bonds during July. The sale of E bonds fell to a new low of 35.112 during the same period, possibly due to vacations and the fact that large vinestments were made In other treasury oflepingX.

The New Drug Discoveries
By Marman N. Bundssen. M. D. IN medicine. as elsewhere, we haw to take the good with the bad Os recent yearn, chemical research has given un a number of new drug* whose life-saving qualities have been heralded everywhere, and rightly so, because they have proved invaluable. There are others, too. almost equally Importal*' in that they relieve dis Vresslng symptoms which can be Controlled in no other way. And yet. for all their potency (against disease, there is not one of these drugs but which can cause dangerous reactions. This is one of the reasons why I have always stressed the importance of using them only under a physic ian's direction. Knowing what hazards are possible, be also knows bow to spot them in their early stages and can thus atop the “use of the drug in queation before dangerous symptoms develop. Reactions may be caused by penicillin, streptomycin, and the sulfonamide drugs, all of which are used for Infections; bens dry I used In cases of allergy or sensitivity; thiouracil. employed in the treatment of goiter, and tridione used to treat certain types of eptlepey In the case of penicillin rear tions may include skin rash, hires, chins, fever, and vomiting. There may also be depression or excitation or conculsions and the presence of blood in the urine Reactions to penicillin sometimes may be decreased by giving beaadryl or pyrtbeesamlne In the case at streptomycin, rinr lag In the ears aad dUtiaoM may appear eartv m Ms eee.

New York City comes up with the announcement that the metropolis now has more than eight million persons, an increase of 600,000 since 1840. Bigger and better cities may be a goal of civic minded groups, but well take ours in smaller portions. To our way of thinking there is more real living and enjoyment in a good county seat town than in any millionpopulated city.
0 o—— A woman would have to be frantic from fear, or desire freedom as much as life to jump from a third story window. That is the case of the Russian school teacher who either hurled herself to the pavement, or was pushed from the Rus sian consulate's headquarters in New York. There is something very • mysterious about the whole affair. Fantastic charges Involving kidnapping and rescue have come up in the case, which sounds like one of those Russian mystery serials. The police and FBI will probably crack the case. O -0 Guy Petit, successful salesman and one of the instructors at the Reppert School of Auctioneering, inculcates good advise to his students. "Say something good about the other fellow, compliment him. even if there isn't any reason for
doing so. Hand him a rose while he is lying," is the homey philosophy handed out by the man who has proved during his success ful career that friendly personality pays dividends. It's good advice for a young fellow, yes. even for the older men to follow. The world isn't perfect. o o An unheralded step in the for mation of a larger governmental unit, constituting an approach to a world government, Is being taken In South America. Colombia, Venexuela. Ecuador and Panama are working in a Greater Colombian Economic and Customs Union. Their model is the “Bene* Ina" agreement made by Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. The South Americans have a good many difficulties to Iron out. so many that they think these may take ten years to settle. This sounds like a conclusion to be expected from the land of manana. The main thing is that they keep working on it.
it quickly disappears when the drug is stopped. The sulfonamide drugs can cause severe anemia, that is. lessening of the red cells or coloring of the blood, as well as a decrease in the number of white cells. Neuritis of the eye nerve or of other nerves may develop. There may he certain mental disturbances. Kidney damage is not unusual. With benadryl, many patients experience drowsiness, nervousness. sickness at the stomach, and other unpleasant effects. The most serious effect of thiouracil is a decrease in the white cells of the blood This is a dangerous condition and every effort must be made to prevent It. Headache and diarrhea are other symptom" which may develop. For this . reason, when thlouracll is used, examinations of the blood should be made weekly or oftener A newer preparation of the same i type, known as propylthiouracil, t seems to be less likely to cause I reactions. Tridione, also, may damage the blood-forming tissues When any of these various pre I parations are employed, the doctor must be over-watchfu! to prevent and to control the so-called . side-effects of these valuable ( drugs.
