Burnett wish them success in their business venture, which is being launched at Galesburg, Illinois. These nationally known chemists and research directors are establishing a cht mica! manufacturing plant in the Illinois city, for the developing of soybean products and ingredients. During their residence here they and members of their esteemable families made many friends and were active in the civic and social life of the community. We extend our best wishes to them. o o Fort Wayne is proceeding with plans to build a $3,000,000 coliseum and war memorial. Work on construction of the building, which will have a seating capacity of about 10,000 for athletic events, may begin this year. The coliseum will be located on a 90acre tract northeast of the city and financed through a county bond issue. Completion of the building will give Fort Wayne facilities for holding big conventions, providing more hotel accommodations become available. o—o— — The arrest of priests and ministers by the Communist government in Czechoslovakia continues and church records have been seized by the raiders. Opposition to the government's high handed method of dealing with religious b<*dies over there, was expressed by Archbishop Beran and he has been plated under house arrest. Regardless of the campaign that the Communists direct against churches, these godless leaders will not drive religion and the spiritual impulse from the hearts of men and women. Persecution has always been carried on. but religion still remains the dominant influence in Christian countries.

Excessive Gas On Stomach

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D. , There are almost aw many ani wer* to the quewtion, "What cau»es ga*?" a* there are people. Thu*, when a patient complain* of excessive gas. a careful study ia indicated to determine it* cause*. Normally, the gas which ia formed In the bowel during digestion I* taken up by the blood, carried to the lung*, and there eliminated from the body. It ia only when thia proceaa fail* that gaa accumulate* in the intestine In large enough quantitloa to cause distress. In adulta. gaa form* chiefly in the large bowel. If it is trapped In the lower portion of thia tube. It may exert enough pressure on the stomach to cause belching. It is normal to belch after a large meal, but constant belching la usually due to air swallowing. Thia habit la often due to some nervous disorder. Bloating is often caused by eating food* which are gasforming, such as beans, onions, and bulky foods. Then. too. certain food* cause allergic reactions which produce bloating in oversensitive Individuals. thus producing pain in the small intestine According to Dr. Walter C. Alvaree. of Roches ter, Minnesota, the foods most often responsible for such symptom* are cabbage and the like, raw apples, radishes. cucumbers chocolate. coffee, peanuts, and at time* even eggs In person* with aa irritable bowel constipation may cause swelling «, stretching of the bowel in such cai-et small amounts of ' gas may be pa»ed every few minutes This may unaetitaes be eltm- ■ mated by the injection of a salt i

The modern trend against senseless formal social customs has at last reached Washington, the fortress of formality. The wives of members of the 81st congress have dene away with the custom of leaving cards with wives of higher ranking officials. Complete strangers, armed with the correct number of visiting cards, have long been considered a necessary nuisance to the wives of men of cabinet and supreme court rank, as well as others who outrank the callers. The women of the 81st Club have decided to be guided by their feelings and to skip the whole thing, confining their visits to their friends. o—o The armed forces have no desire to take over the atomic energy program, Secretary of Defense Johnson reports. This is reassuring. Some generals and some congressmen have viewed atomic fission as purely a military question. The sole purpose, j in their minds, of splitting the atom was to develop a deadly 1 weapon. They paid no attention to the enormous possibilities of , commercial development, which ' obviously the armed forces would j not be qualified to handle, it would have been just as sensible to put the army in charge of oil t research or truck design because ' both oil and trucks could have military uses. o o— — Economic View According to th* harried economists of Great Britain, our fears of a coming depression are illfounded and 99 per cent psycho- t logical. They see our economy as i "strong and resilient in contrast to the rest of the world." No bust 1 is ahead unless we talk ourselves into one, say the British. i Many Americans share this opinion. A trip around the country, observing conditions on * farms, in factories and in small and large business enterprises, shows one a sound basis for confidence. Bumper crops, large savings accounts and careful buying weigh heavily in the scale against seme temporary unemployment lowering prices in a few lines. The stabilization which is tak- ' ing place Is no reason for pes- ■ simlam when it is compared with ] the acute struggle for a bare live- , Hhood which is going on In Brl- . tain and elsewhere. Ixtose talk ' about a depression—the kind ' which helps to bring one on- is i out of order. Facing facts and making sensible efforts to improve conditions Is one thing. Contributing to panic is another.

solution, each day for one or two - weeks, Into the lower bowel. There are various condition* or diseases which may be responsible in part for ga* formation. Among 1 them are hernia, ulcer, and a disease known as sprue, in which there i* inflammation of the bowel. Colitis is another cause. Allergy 1 or oversensitivity may be another source of difficulty. Bloating, which becomes worse during the day and clear* up at ' night, may be due to the dropping of the organ* because of weak abdominal muscles. Emotional disturbances are frequently responsible for disorders of the bowel action together with excessive gas formation Diverticulosis in which outpouchings occur in the wall of the bowel may lead to ga* formation, particularly when these little pouches become Inflamed. Excessive ga* fn the bowel I* occasionally relieved by certain drug*. Peppermint is often helpful. A small amount of an alcqfudic beverage I* sometimes beneficial. Distress may also be relieved by taking a little food or water, bywalking around, or by massaging the abdomen. Questions and Answer* L. A. 0.: What la the cause of colitis? An*wer: There are many types of colitis, resulting from various causes. Some cases ar* due to in section: others are due to the wrong use of laxative* and improp- I er diet . . A permanent cure can be brought' about m most type* of colitis by meant oi proper treatment.

CHAPTER FORTY HILDE lived in a long block of identical small new homes known as Houses for Veterans. As Bea- ' tries stopped her car she thought how obvious It was, even to someone like herself who knew nothing about building, bow cheaply the houses were constructed. No wonder, she thought, the justifiable complaints of ex-servicemen about leaky roofs and warped flooring—the whole hideous story of injustice and speculation had reached tho newspapers. This •- what we have done for those about whom we smugly said, “Nothing is too good for our boys." Children In muddy snowsuits were playing along the sidewalk, pulling little wagons, and riding bicycles that had been new at Christmas. War babies, Beatrice 1 thought These are the children whose fathers were in Italy and Iwo Jlma when they were born. These are the children of a generation of gallant young mothers who waited and waited until their nerves were stretched tight And my son or my second daughter wotUd be their age if be or she had lived. *> Hilda opened the door. She i looked blank with surprise, and then she burst Into laughter. “Mrs. Farish! You are the last : person 1 expected to see. Do come in." “You're looking splendid,” Bea- - trice said. t As, of course, she was. The lines of fatigue in her face had been erased by rest, and her abundance of color was the natural color of health. Her short dark curia that had never Known the heat of a permanent waving machine made a charmingly casual frame for her face. Beatrice had , never noticed before that Hllde's tilted note seemed gaily to defy 1 trouble and pain. She wore a bnght green smock over a dark dress. She led tho way into a small, neat, cheaply furnished living room, and was about to put aside her sewing •"hen Beatrice protested. "No. go on with your sewing. Hilde, 1 was never taught to sew a fine seam. I’we never seen your son. but 1 imagine he's among thoee children I saw playing outI aide." i , Hilde picked up her sewing. "He plavs all day and <ww*n in awhile i tee comes to the door to make sure I am still here. He le so happy that I am home with him." She lifted her eyes from the white cloth she was stitching and smiled, j “We hope it is a girl this tune,

but it really doesn't matter. I had hoped to work longer, to say goodbye to my customers, but the doctor wouldn't let me. He said if 1 wanted this child, 1 must stop. And I do. 1 do. 1 want all of them.” Her eyes narrowed as she looked at Beatrice. “You can't understand. can you, when I have no security to speak of? Poor Nina. She thinks 1 am such a fool." Beatrice threw her coat off her shoulders. She felt a lull in the swirling currents of her thoughts, a curious sense of peace. She wished that talk were not necessary, that she could just sit here in this rocking chair that, by its creaky oldness, told her that scores of babies had been rocked to sleep in it and old people had dozed in it and watched Hllde's steady fingers make those fine little stitches. For here there was tranquility and a happiness that went far beneath the gratification of material desires granted. Beatrice said, "When Nina called this morning and told me that you were going to have another child and were not working, 1 had an overpowering desire to see you." "Me?” Hilde asked smiling. “Yes. You 1 have known you for a long time, and 1 have wondered how you retained your bright outlook in the face of so many obstacles and the lack of security that moat of us kill ourselves trying to achieve. I wondered how you could be so cheerful tn holding out for your busband to do the kind of work he really wanted to do rather than taking a job, any job, that would bring in money and lessen your taste as the breadwinner. I wondered .why you wanted children when you can t do anythinv for them beyond a public school education, not to mention the fact that each child takes a little more away from the very little you have for yourself. And 1 have wondered how you could care enough about the shop to plant seeds in the flower boxes outside the windows.” "You saw all thoee things.” Hilde said with soft delight in her voice. “Every spring you planted those seeds, and probably didn't have any lunch so that you could have the time. And you weeded those boxes and watered the plants, and gave the flowers to your customers. 1 wondered why you never looked worried or harassed when vou are toteWgnt e-oug!) to have figured all these things out for yourself that 1 am saying. And most of all 1 wondered *vhy when Nina told you that you should divorce your husband you looked as if you had never beard at divoice."

“You still wonder?” Hilde Asked with amusement. Beatrice shook her head. “No," she said poignantly. “Not any more. Hilde.” “Will you tell me?" “If I can. You know that security isn't money in the bank or stocks and bonds. It is tho relationship of the man and the woman. And you know that there cannot boa good relationship unless the man loves the thing that M does, and that he hates tho bread of his work unless he loves the work that bought the bread. You are not more than two generations removed from immigrants and the stories of the old country have come down to you. You know what we of many generations removed from immigrants have forgotten—the privilege of public education, and that this is a land of opportunity for your children. You believe, and you shame the cynics, that work and bread and love will achieve anything here—one of the few free countries at the earth—and you will tell your children that when they are old enough to understand. By your own standard you are not poor, but immeasurably rich. What some people would call your sacrifice, Hilde, you call your privilege." “Are such things secrets?" the girl asked. •They are locked away In us. and only necessity brings them out—just aa most of us forget our patriotism until war threatens. You know the seeds of existence. For you life io tasted and sett. You exult tn life. And while society calls the severing of a marriage a divorce, you know that you will never be disunited from your hueband in life or in death. For to you there is no such thing as divorce. It is as alien to your nature as cruelty." Tt is very strange that you know these things,” Hilde said. “It is true 1 am not afraid of being what you would call poor, and I am not worried when Tom loses his job, I expect these things for simple people like ourselves. 1 allow tor them for ... for emergen- • You probably think Fm a tittle crazy.” •What nonsense! 1 thought that other people thought as 1 did, that, as you say. they had figured it out for themselves. To me there is no other way to think, no ether way, to de with u>e tnings I have, and to k>ve them because they have served so well." "take this rocking chair?" "Yes, like that old rocking chair."

Jftne 20 —(CP)— Eddie Waitkus. star Philadelphia Phillies first baseman, undergoes more xrays today to determine when doctors can remove the bullet fired j Into his chhst by a lovesick girl. | Doctors said he was recovering •splendidly.” He underwent a second operation Saturday for r«m f ”’- al of coagulated blood In his lung and chest cavity that hampered breathing. The .22 caliber slug is lodged in the rear wall of his chest. It pass- , ed directly through his right lang. , Nurses said Waitkus' morale was good, chiefly due to hundreds of letters from fans piling up on his bedside table. His room was banked with flbwera sent by well-wish-ers.
