With Proper Care Diabetics Can Live Normal Life

By Herman N. Bundesen, M.D. It is an encouraging fact that diabetics today can look forward to long life and good health. This is not to say that they can safely neglect their disease. Far from it. for the management of diabetes is a corynlicated problem bu' it is one which eati be successfully solved by care on the part of the physician and cooperation on the part of the patient. Diabetes results when the pancreas fails to secrete enough insulin to enable the body to use sugars properly. The reasons behind this failure are not known, though both overweight and heredity seem to play a part in bringing it on. The main treatment of this disease is by means of diet, together with injections of insulin when required. The object is to keep the amount of sugar in the blood at a normal level and to avoid the reactions which ultimately result in the dread complications of diabetes, such as high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, and bleeding into the eye. Naturally, diet planning for the diabetic is an individual problem and must be worked out carefully for each patient. However, there, are certain general considerations which can be used as a guide. The number of calories or heat units in-t eluded in the diet will be determined by the patient s weight, and in this regard the doctor will always keep in mind that it is better for the diabetic to be souiewha. underweight than overweight. Sugar or sugar-containing foods should be avoided, since, when they are used, there is a rise in the amourt of sugar in the blood. In children, desserts or soft drinks may. on occasion, be sQbatitated for some starchy foods in the diet This to done tor juydjotogtcil

Employment in Indiana during the period ending October 15, totaled 1,222,400, the state's employment division announces. While factory employment declint ed a little a gain of 4,000 workers t in the retail trades helped to hold . up ( the record. The closing of cant ning factories accounted for most of the loss in the employment 1 ranks, in the state. o— —o An Indiana father and son combination, working together became Corn King and Corn Price at the International Livestock show. They ' are Newton Halterman and his 12 year-old son, Lair of Rushville, who have been crowned the best com growers in the country. lowa no longer can lay claim to the best corn, for Indiana now has taken to the title. 0 0 It is likely that the legislature Wil; revamp tax laws and methods ' of collecting fees on automobiles . Many owners evade the current personal property tax, so the suggestion has been made that a 1 weight tax be enacted and the levypaid when the license is issued- . In the first place the three-way : tax on autos is wrong and the lawshould be corrected, so that a lic- , ense fee is the only levy made on ’ th e owner. o o— — Since the arrest of movie actor ' Mitchum on a narcotic charge, much has been written about marijuana. (Mexican hay) as if the weed was something new. Why supposedly smart people would want to smoke the stuff, is a puz- ; zle to those who claim saneness. ;To become bestial from the effects of the loco weed is nothing i to he proud of. much less cause for fame. Smuggling of the weed sis being done from Mexico and American dopes make the traffic i possible. o—o — Madam Chiang Kai-Shek will 1 , have to create a 'better impression ■ on Americans than she left on her previous visit to this country. The 1 j American-educated woman is fin ' icky about a lot of things, which I to the average American doesn’t ' have anything to do with her dei sire to have the United States help I her native China. While deploring the Communistic invasion of China. 1 it looks to Americans that Gen- ■ eralissimo Kai-Shek hasn't done a whole lot to fight off the invaders. ' The Madam’s case should be heard ' hut the feeling over here is not in favor of sending enormous s amounts of material to her coun- > try, because eventually it falls into the hands of the Communists.

reasons. In the average adult, the daily ' intake of starchy foods should be ; about 150 grams, or about 5 ounc- ■ es. This amount of starchy foods permits one slice of bread for each i of four meals; one helping of ' starchy vegetables, such as pota I j toes, rice, or ma.arona; one glass- ] ful of milk; a helping of less starchy vegetables, such as onions carrots, or heets, and two helpings of fruits, such as oranges and ■ j grapefruit. Protein foods, such as meat, milk and eggs ar© of great importance ■ for the diabetic patient to stiipph- ' the materials for building tissues and repairing worn-out ones. It is suggested that meat, ish, or eggs be given at each meal. A certain small amount offal is also necessary in the diet, and the fats are best furnished by eggs and milk. Fats are not only necessary in themselves, but also to iprovide .fat-soluble vitamins such as Vitamins A and D. It is not difficult to make a diagnosis of diabetes. It causes such symptoms as loss of weight and strength, severe inching of the increased appetite and thirst, and , J the presence of sugar in the urine. I Chemical examination to determine the amount of sugar in the < blood is important. Diabetes is not a s'atic disease. The state of the patient may 1 change from month to month and from year to year. Thus, he requir es constant checking and superj vising if the dangers of the disease are to be avoided and rx>rmal health maintained. The great thing is that with competent medical guidance both these things can be accomplished so that diabetics today can not only live to a ripe old age. but can lia'c a life free of Invalid:*®.

The last 1 knew ot you was when a—a j friend of yours came to my mother and said you were very ill in a Chicago hospital. She gave him money for you. We did not hear again. She wrote, finally, to the ' hospital. No one of your name had been there at the time." p He said pleasantly, “1 wasn't f there, under that name. 1 have found it convenient to use a number of names.

He I took out a battered wallet and s gave her a picture and she looked p at it, blindly. It was small and badly executed and showed her. as b a baby, in her mother’s arms. She had its duplicate upstairs in her 0 desk in the living room. 1 "You could have obtained this, somehow?” she said. "That’s so.

The exact street escapes me. 1 had met her brother casually and came with him and others to the apartment Your mother and I were married m New York ... 1 was at that <4me working in a bank. 1 may add I have been a number ot things before and since—an actc in a road company, the manager ot a small theater in the West, a hotel clerk—and I nave held other positions less respectable." She said, shaking, “You cnuld have learned all this, too." "I could indeed," he said easily, "but that, too. would be hard to prove." She said, "My husband has tried to trace you." “He isn't the first," said the tall man, amused. "But, at least. 1 owe him nothing." He looked around the room. “You are very beautiful, and, 1 may add, as fortunate a you are lovely." She was silent, because there was nothing to say, and she was wretchedly unhappy. -She had' thought ot it, very differently . , . if they found him . she had thought ot an old man and an ill one. The first premise was absurd to begm with, for he was not old. He was, she thought, not more than fifty. She had believed that she would see that ne was cared for, dutifully, if without forgiveness, because perhaps her mother would have wished it so, having loved him tor so long, no matter what he had done to her. But now the picture changed. He was not old, he was not ill, and he was not, as perhaps she had also pictured, repentant He said. "I may add that 1 have been in San Francisco. 1 saw, tong after its occurence, the news of • your marriage." He added, "Has i anyone ever called you Gay?” i None but himself, when she was a baby. She could not recall it; but her mother had told her, a great many times. "I believe that he loved us," she would say, "1 believe that he thought the world of you. 'Such a gay baby,’ he said. He called you Gay." He watched. her face change, and went on, “Still someone, sentimental, and half delirious, might have told me that, too. Shortly before your mother and I—shall we say—patted company. I had a slight accident Do you remember it?" "When I was four my father deserted us. No, I don't rememi ber.” "Os course not, at four.” He laughed, his face relaxed and charming, despite the deep lines, the unhealthy skin. "But perhaps she told you? She was always a backward rather than a forward looker, and very talkative. 1 came home one night somewhat the worse for drink, as they say, and I stumbled on the roller skates ot the child who lived across the hail. 1 fell and cut my shin and peri haps it was that which made me de'.ernuned to forsake domesticity.

dent ?" She said unwillingly, "Yes." "I am a little sorry tor you,” he said musingly. "Not now, or, never now. But in retrospect while your mother lived. You must have nad a blow-by-blow description ot those five years with me not quite five, you were born in the eleventh month of our marriage." He pulled up his trouser leg, casually, ms frayed sock fell about a thin ankle and there was a faint scar, a thin white line. He asked, “Are you convinced? Or should 1 resort to the ouija board? Your mother would remember me. She had a tenacious memory." She thought, 1 mustn’t shout or scream or ring for Andrews ... 1 mustn't do anything. Her anger was black and bitter, it rose in her throat and choked her. She asked, her voice drained ot color, "What do you want?" "You're very abrupt," he murmured. "Your mother was not able jto afford—the graces, was she ? i No. 1 can see that. But you walk like a model. One account I read I said you had been bnt. Could not I you be less—brusque? 1 could ot course make the implausible but pleasant answers. I could say, I have come to die on your doorstep, i Very uncomfortable that would be: i and with proper care I am good for thirty years. When 1 was in college ... did your mother ever , tell you I had once graduated from > a university?" "Yes, she told me," said Gail. ' ’ “1 was voted the man most, likely to succeed. We shall see." He went on after a moment. "1 could say 1 had come to you for the • the love of which 1 had by my own ’ depravity and cruelty deprived my- _ self. But that isn't so. my dear. 1 1 do not find you any more lovable than you find me. I am of course ’ delighted at your success and un- • personally charmed by your ap- ‘ pearance, standardized but attrac- • tive." • She said desperately, "Will you J get to the point?" He looked at her, without speaking. Her twenty-third birthday had ’ been last week. Brad had given j her a party; he hao also given her a small, lovely string of pearls. ] The Spencer mothballs still reposed , in the safe deposit He bad given r her the sable cape flung over the chair. She was aware of these and r of the handmade shoes, the black . suit, the plain, finely tucked silk blouse ... she was aware of the e emerald, of the pin that caught j the blouse at the high neckline, a . birthday gift frorm Brad's grands mother. She was aware, for the ’ first time, of the money she repj resented, every cent of it; from e the cost of the hairdresser to that e of the hides of little animals, from j the price of jewels to that of the f suit—a few yards of material cut . by a famous hand ~. . He said amiably. “If you insist upon knowin, I want money, my ( dear, aid a lot of it" “That's blackmail, you know." u Gail said. -1 (To Le Con.'mued?

Minimums Listed For Construction Os Gl Buildings Minimum construction requirements. designed to assure veterans that the houses they purchase with the aid of GI loans are of sound construction, were announced today by veterans administrator Carl R. Gray, Jr., of Fort Wayne. The standards apply only to proposed construction for sale to veterans where VA is asked to give an appraisal of reasonable value before construction begins. To take effect December 15, the construction requirements deal with quality of materials, construction techniques, workmanship, installation of necessary home equipment. and (elated structural details. These parallel minimum construction requirements of the federal housing administration. VA emphasized that the prescribed standards represent only the basic minimum requirements acceptable. They are in no way intended to standardize dwelling types or to discourage builders from incorporating features superior to the minimums astablished. A new kind of fever thermometer, virtually unbreakable and as easy to read as a watch, has been invented, according to The American Magazine. It's made almost entirely of metal, uses no mercury, and requires no shaking dgwn after use. The unit has a bimetallic control which expands with heat and activates the pointer on a watch-' like dial. Prior to the 1947 season.

But it would all make ar. excellent newspapet story," ne said thoughtfully, "and 1 can give it the necessary color and detail." She said, with contempt, “No decent newspaper would print it." "Why not? Anything that happens to a Spencer is news." "1 owe you nothing,’’ Gail said. "Because I left you' and my I wife?" He smiled, a little. “My dear child, and 1 do mean child—j ii..nk twice. You nave heard one side ot me story only. I was, to ■ oegin with, very fond oi your , mother, 1 was even in love with ner. She was pretty, she was passionately in love with me. 1 was , earning enough money to support a wife, modestly. But I did not like the way 1 was making it Had your mother had means . . ." He sighed. “But she hadn’t 1 knew mat she did not deceive me, and ; in the first roseate weeks it seemed unimportant But when I—shall we j say-resigned from my job things | were somewhat different I tound myself with a pregnant and demanding woman.

'What has happened?” 1 "Mrs. Spencer, could you call I Brad?" i Why, the girl's in bits and pieces, , Alexandria thought Funny how ; everyone was vulnerable at some , point or other. She had thought , her grandbon's wife composed to the point ot hardness. She spoke to Millicent. "Go on upstairs ...” . she said, and Millicent, looking , aghast, went. Alexandria took Gail by the shoulders and shook her , slightly. She said, "Control your- , self. No you are not going to iaint. , You are going to tell me what has happened." Andrews had said, as Alexandria came in, that Mrs. Spencer had a caller, and she had heard, as she passed, a man's voice; she nad even glanced in and seen him, a middle-aged man, sitting there. He nad risen and was now standing at the entrance to the living room. He was smiling. He looked, m a battered, very unpleasant way, distinguished. And Gau said dully: “This is my father, Mrs. Spencer." Alexandria regarded Morrison Rogers and assumed ner most impenetrable mask, in the eighteenth century gentlewomen protected their delicate complexions with trifles of velvet, linen oi silk. Alexandria cared tor her physical skin with pure soap and water, witn unguents in winter and a tilted parasol under the sun. In any season sne was mindful ot her dignity, and shielded herself trom a display of emotions, her own or anyone else's, behind a smooth facade integral to her by temperament and upbringmg. No stranger, and tew friends, nad seen her evince anger, d sappomtment, or even pleasurable astonishment. In ner immediate family she rarely laid the mask aside; now and then it slipped a little, as Milhcent could testify. Gail held her breath, her heart pounding. To a certain extent she felt that she knew Brad's grandmother; at least she had learned to read with some accuracy the thermometer and barometer, gauging temperature and forewarning of storm. She was therefore prepared to see Alexandria's apparently spontaneous smile, practiced and meaningless, sun glittering on ice, and to hear her exclaim, “What a pleasant surprise!" and correctly to evaluate the adjective. Alexandria offered her small hand, and Rogers bent over it thoughtfully. His own smile was a reflection of hers. When ne straightened up, bis dark eyes met eyes as dark. They took each other’s measure, aware ot caution, like fencers or chess players. He thought uneasily, A bard old nut to crack. In tus circuitous, uncomfortable Journey across the continent he had pondered upon Mrs. Spencer, the only close relative ot hto unknown son-in-law, and rejoiced in the reflection that there would be no difficult male relatives.
