We are entering the holiday season and it s time to be of good Cheer. ——o- o Wby is it that the melancholy days seem to arrive with the first snow storm? O 0 Something new happens nearly efery day. Routing of traffic from U. S. highway 224 over Front street, made many residents Inquire where the little known street Is located. o o—An Indianapolis night club operator refused to pay his federal amusement taxes and U. 8. Treasury men padlocked bls various places of business. While this is an extreme way to force a settlement, much trouble could have been averted had the tax payer complied with the law like others do and settled with the government There is too much "ducking" of taxes anyway and Uncle Ham should clamp down on the violators o -O- — Indiana veterans may receive their bonus checks for Christmas. 1953. according to an estimate made by state tax officials This date is ahead of schedule, but it is explained that the grosa-incoms surtax is rolling in and by the end of November will amount to about 14,000,000. Next January when the annual payments are due, the bonus fund will skyrocket and unless there is a business bust, taxes are expected to continue at a high level. Authorities also believe that total payments will not exceed 125 mfWlons, which amount may be reached by the end of 1163. o—o The railroads are losing money on passenger trains and the Inter* atate Commerce Commission has granted coach and Pullman fare boosts, which might further retard train travel and thus result In still heavier deficits for the eastern roads. Coach fares are boosted to 6.375 per mile and first

Grove Emergency Moy 0 ccur in Cose of Asthma

By Herman N. Bundesen, M.D. THE ordinary patient with asthma auffrm from periodic attacks of difficult breathing, together with •obi- coughing and alight fever. At the peak of one of these attacks, the cheat is greatly distended and the patient finds It almost Impossible to get air into or out of the langs. Occasionally, instead of subsiding at the and of an hour or so. the attacks follow each other no closely as to he practically continuous and the patient goes over Into the condition known as status asthmatics* This is a grave emergency, which demands that the patient be taken to the hospital at once where necessary equipment and trained personnel will be at the doctor's command No flowers should he allowed in the room and the room should be kept as dust-free as poMibh*. The mattress and pillows should be covered with some type of casing which does net allow materials from the pillows and mattress to pass through IL Most patients with asthma are treated with such drugs as epinepkrtse and ephedrine, as well as no called anti-hlstamine- drugs, sneb as benadryl However, when otdtus asthmaticaa develops these preparations do no good; in moot cdoes the patient does not respond to them. Further dooes of these preparations may only produce •drvousnese. and rapid heart beat, without relieving the ohortnoM of breath After two to three days, the epinephrine may be administered again. These pet I onto must be given plenty of fluids by injection into vein, and fluids should bo taken b/ mouth insofar a» the

class rates to 4.3 cents, aa Increase of 12H per cent. The hikes affect all travel east of the Mie aiMippi, which takes in Indiana, and north of the Ohio and Potomac rivers. First class train travel already is expensive and tbs boosts may further reduce paw senger service, it seems, as one of the commission members stated, the railroads should attempt to lower rates as a means of competing with automobile and air plane for the traveling dollar. ——o o— When Molotov, then Russian Foreign Minister visited the White House, be carried perhaps the most extraordinary luggage ever brought in by the representative of a great country. As Mrs. Roosevelt tella it in her book. ‘This I Remember." a White House valet unpacked Molotov's bag, and found in it "a large chunk of black bread, a roll of sausage and a pistol." Evidently even at the top of the Russian world Molotov had not forgotten the habits of his revolutionary days, when he might have to lie hidden for days and when the most casual passer-by might be a police agent. It may explain the mental processes of the mtn of the Kremlin if we realize that many of them have led such Ilves as Molotov's and cannot get rid of the idea that if they had privation and dangers once, they might again. Fear seems to be the Russian diet. ■'■■<> ■ o - Several business firms and many individuals have Invested generously, but prudently, in the proposed Community Center. In the spirit of contributing to a cherished community need and at the same time qualify for the 3100.000 gift from Centra! Roya Company. There will always be different ideas on bow such a project should be built and what It should contain, but to please everybody would probably require as many buildings as there are individuals. The proposal is for a Combined youth and adult civic center, final plans for which have not been adopted. Floor plans and arrangement of quarters for youth activities can be adopted to local needs in the final draft of plans for the building An advisory council was named at the opening of the drive for funds, representing a cross-section of thought, and these people, together with others who would like to counsel in the matter are invited to Join the Foundation Trustees in working out the most feasible and best building for the city.

patient can tolerate them. One drug which seems to be of ’ value is known as aminophylline, i However it must be used cautiously under the doctor's directions, particularly when there is any heart disturbance present. This drug is usually given by injection 1 Into a vein, although It may he administered satisfactorily in the ■ form of a suppository inserted Into the rectum. 1 The patient with status asthmatlcus is benefited by being placed in an oxygen tent. It is also sug- ' seated that, as a sedative, the drug known as demernl be administered but for no longer than from three to five days. It has been found that pressure on the riba administered three or four times dally, first on one aide and then on the other, will help the patient's breathing, in carrying ' out thia procedure the palm of either hand la placed on the ribs on one aldo and pushed upward and Inward during the latter part of the expiratory period, that is. ' when the patient is breathing out. i If there io any infection present in the lungs, the use of penicillin may also be of great help. i QUESTIONS ANO ANSWERS E.8.5.: What would cause the menstrual periods to occur every other month? Answer: Irreguldr menstruation occurs from several different causes, ft may be duo to trouble with the glands of internal secretion. an infection of the ovaries, the tubes, or the womb. It sometimes occurs tn severe infections: that is. tuberculosis, and chronic ailments, such as anemia. It may occur with approaching “change of Mfc.”

- i him into taking me along to pose a* his chauffeur, but he Is not sure 1 he will get back in time for Young i Peoples, and he appointed me as chaperon. Who will chaperon the chaperon if Dotty comes? I | hope Merle brings Miss Harriet Mendenhall back with him so that she can give the church the once over, and I can give her the onceover. I have Jess confidence in his taste in women than in anything | else about him. and this woman has certainly done most of the leading | this far Os course, with a man as I marriage-shy as the good reverend. I suppose the woman has to take I the lead. In his sermon this morning. Merle spoke on "Neo-paganism.” which turned out to be an analysis of Fascism, Naziism. and Communism as they oppose Christianity. He called th£m the right gate and the left gate of hell, which shall not prevail against the Church He seemed to speak particularly about Germany, a philosopher named Neechee and his “Blond Beast.” He told me when I was shutting windows when everybody had gone that he had timed that sermon In expectation of the return of Gerald Hardin from Germany, where he had been taken, along with other innocent American business men. : for a conducted tour and to absorb Nazi propaganda. He was glad Mrs. Hardin had been in church. "Wait and see," he told me; "Hardin will come back bragging for slitter and the ’New Germany.' And prove again that a man can be financially clever, have plenty of I business acumen, hut ntr ability at all for political or ethical analysis." Sunday night: Dorothy did not ' come to Young Peoples, altho she said she would this morning. I am to lead November 22. Merle Hawley got back from In , dianapolis in time for the benediction. He had Miss Mendenhall with him. and a Mrs. Morrison I take ft i that Mrs. Morrison came along to make it proper for Harriet to stay at tba manse tonight. He asked -me , to come to the manse for tea or cosI fee, as though hr Is afraid of being alone with two women. Mrs. Morrison. aged about forty, is a nice person. and though I think the impression Harriet wanted to give is that [ she has long known her, I got the reverse idea; would not be surprised If she Is a paid chaperone, hired so that chasing Merle can look innocent. I do not like Harriet at this writing. She seemed annoyed when Merle asked me to the manse. She said, on being introduced. "Oh. so this is Ivan, the Janitor I've heard so moth about." (lu B.
