A nickel still buys a candy bar or a soft drink, and wondrous machines have been devised to hand out such items in exchange for a flve-cent coin.

New Way Found to Adm inister Hormones

IT ia al way* the alm nt the do< • tor to make every treatment a* Tain lean and a* aimpie aa poaalhlr Sometime*. a allrht change in the method of giving a medicine will make necessary treatment* not only troublesome but also leaa expensive for the patient I Thia ia certainly true in the treatment of certain dlaorderawhich require the administration of hormone* or glandular extract* over a long period of time Many women who auffer severe discern -| forte during the change of life know the value of hormone*, but they often object to the method of giving them in repeated injection* To meet thia objection, another way of giving hormone* ha* l>een devised which not only free* the patient from the needle but haa distinct medical advantage*. This method consists of implanting or putting under the akin a hard, compressed tablet of the deatred glandular extract. In thia form it ia absorbed far more alowly than when given by injection. Qaantltiea of the extract absorbed by the blood are minute.' but the proves* goes on without interruption and more nearly duplirates what normally goee oa In the body where ordinarily small a-, mount* of bocr-ne* are routine-1 oealy fed taut the blood streadr Not only doe* thia method elimi Ute Ute igcoatvAieee of tIWUW

This may seem a startling revelation. when we consider the daily death rate on highway*, but as evidence It is pointed out that during the period of 1911 15, deaths from accidents occurred at the ageadjusted rate of si per 100,000. From 1945 48. the accid< ntal death rate was only 43 per 100,000. Only two major classification* of fatal accidents have shown an increases, automobile mishaps, which are more than three and one-half times as frequent, and deaths in burning buildings and other fires, which have increas ed in frequency by 50 percent. Drowning* have declined by 57 percent and fatal falls by 6" percent. The Improvement in the accident fatality record is due in part according to the statisticians, to the modernisation of homes, the introduction of new industrial products to supplant old ones, change* In industrial method*, and shifts in means of transportation Safety engineering and safety education also are considered to have played important parts. Despite the improvement In the record the statisticians point out. a “deplorably high toll" of about 100,000 live* Is exacted by accidents yearly. o—o Rules Out Benefit Payments To Jobless Indianapolis, Oct. 22. —(UP) — Employes of the Frank foundries of Muncie were notified today that they cannot collect unemployment compensation because the company shut down.

The newspapers which have attacked Ivan's character have generally agreed to print also his diary in defense. The diary begins in Madrid, Indiana. on July 13. 1938. the day after Ivan, "chasing skirts" with his brother Mike, follows Dorothy Into a youth rally In church. Ivan, having demonstrated his powerful flat< against a tough cop in his native town of Coal Creek. Pennsylvania, needs help in deciding whether or not to liecome a professional pugilist. And is surprised to get that help from a sermon by Her MERLE HAWLEY, on the four phases of 'Christian personality “I'm •S'fc ‘dead when I'm only alive to my ' belly and my muscles.'' Ivan coni fesses to Hawley. "Let me show you I got a little life in my brain. 1 And maybe you can show me how to grow In favor with God and I man." The diary is the minister * .suggestion by which "Ego" Igorvlih can record his experiment with his town personality.

He believe* that I have enough on the ball mentally to make further education worth the effort. latxt Bunday afternoon, Merle , Hawley and I took a long walk and talked. He Is only about thirty, and ! not married. It was really a man-to-man talk I cannot recall everything we talked about, but 1 was trying to find out what being religious would make of me. Os course, we talked about women. I told him aliQUt Veronica, and about some of her schemes to get me to marry her. He aaid something there which Micks in my thinking: "Roys and girls who get married that way are victims of their own conduri rather than rulers of it. A girl who traps a husband that way may get one who resents and hates her all her life, no matter how much the man is to blame In the first place." But more important to me now that I'm away from Veronica Is that I have to behave myself to be a i Christian I argued that It was Im- ' possible. And he told me the story of someimdy named Augustine who lived in North Africa ahout fifteen centuries ago. But he made this old fellow's problems sound jttst Ilk? mine today, and pointed to the place In the Bible where Augustine took up and rend. "Don't plan for i the lusts of the flesh." Hawley explained that if we planned to do right and be clean, still temptations might hit us hard. But if we kept on fighting to go In the right direction. God would help uh and be willi Ing to forgive us so long as we are sincere When Mike and I started out to pick up some girls two weeks ago who would have thought I would get my whole life turned around? The best thing about the talk with Merle Hawley is that he admits it I* difficult even for him to look at a pretty female holy and think only of spiritual matters. He said that just as a delicious dish wait led down front porch steps onto the pavement ahead of ss and slithered up to a roadster waiting for her on the corner.

Former British Residents Dispel Ideas Os England Any converaation with the Rail- j e> family, from Manchester, England, must, it aeems, produce some rather startling revelation*. With' subject* ranging all the way from history and geography to eporta. Mrs. Frieda Bailey, her son, John and daughter. Mr*. Kenneth Bowman. dispelled certain Idea* of English form which had become standard American conception*, i For instance. John, 18. who I*, a sophomore In the Decatur high school, stated that here in the United States they teach much more history than they do in the English schools. For a nation such as England, which is seemingly, steeped In historical data this h surprising, hut as Mrs. Bailey *ald,' “There they don't teach about the Greeks; they don't go as far back | a* they do in this country; over there history Is concerned with man Ilka Charles IV. and that sort of thing.*' John admitted that In England the history book* were rather objective in their treatment of the British past. "They do admit that' England has made mistakes," he said. I Mrs. Bailey and her son believe they will like America fine after, five weeks, though they both admit the sudden move from a industrial city of five million population to Decatur I* quite abrupt, and believe It will take some time to get n»ed to it. “There'e so much time on my bands." Mrs. Bailey said, T simply can't find much to do to occupy myself with.” Her daughter. Mrs. Bowman, who has lived here four years, disagrees with the other members of her family. She would like to return to England. “I don't believe she would with things the way they are over there now.” her mother said. Mrs Bowman had one fault to find with American cities. “They are all alike?* she said. "You see one of the larger cities in America
