After viewing the figures on American's expedltures for gasoline and tobacco, the wit remarked that America has money to burn. ——o o—— This dip in temperature Is seasonal and chances are that a preChristmas snow fall will soon blanket the landscape. It's in the air! o—o Good used clothing and toys that are not beyond repair are needed by the Good Fellows club for the needy children of the city. If you have suitable donations In these lines, deliver your bundle and packages to the fire engine house on South Seventh street. The Good Fellows will see that the children receive the gifts. o o The Capehart-Jacoba debates will be staged in seven cities, the sites being extended to Evansville and Terre Haute. Both men are gunning for a "kill," but chances are they won't settle the campaign issues, although their viewpoints will be of Interest. Senator Capehart seems so ambilious In the matter that he appears making his debate every time he steps out of his automobile. o o The Good Fellows fund isn’t growing and of course that is discouraging to Santa Claus. A hundred Decatur children will miss the thrill of Christmas and the joys of Christmas Eve unless tbe Good Fellows cut lose from a few dollars and make it possible for the Delta Theta Tan sorority, sponsors, to purchase the Items that go with Christmas giving. Let’s become Santa's helpers and spread joy among tbe children at Christmastime. o o— — Senator Byrd of Virginia, who seems to pay a great deal of attention to federal government financing, has plans for reducing the budget to 36 billion dollars a year.

Patient With Ulcer Must Watch for Recurrence

By Herman N. Bundesen. M D. CONTRARY to general opinion, nicer of the stomach is not difficult to clear np. Ulcere tn this location, as well as those in the first part of the bowel, can for the most part be readily healed by the use of proper diet, rest, and the giving of an alkaline preparation known aa baking soda. The real trick Is to keep the ulcer from recurring. This is a more difficult matter and requires the constant observation of the dottor. as well as the patient's adherence to a strict regimen. The four most common causes for recurrences are improper diet, physical or mental fatigue, emotional disturbances, and infections, •specially those of the nose and throat. •light Pain The patient With ulcer often pays no attention to slight pain in the abdomen or a digestive upset. However, such a person should always remember that these slight disturbances may indicate a beginning recurrence, and that prompt treatment is necessary if a recurrence Is to be prevented. ft is often helpful for such patients to have frequent vacations or even to change their occupations. pie diet should contain no foods wMch may be irritating to the stomach or bowel, and excessively

seven-snd-one-half billions under the current budgeb The able senator proposes a three-billion cut in civilian functions of the government and four-billions In the military establishments, foreign aid and veterans’ department. His survey shows that interest on the national debt will climb one hundred million in the next fiscal year. The debt will be boosted this year and will go higher In the 1951 fiscal period, if tbe budget isn't reduced or taxes increased. Byrd explains. And congress does not seem to be in a mood to boost taxes. —o o— Plan For Peace: The rivalry for authorship of a peace plan In the United Nations has been won by the West. The General Assembly adopted the resolution drafted by the United States and Great Britain, and has rejected a competing resolution drafted by Russia. This is the second significant victory for the West in General Assembly voting In the present session; the first was the election of Yugoslavia to the Security Council. Will this peace plan bring the world closer to a stable peace? Will the defeat of the Russian plan, added to the earlier defeat of the Russian effort to keep Yugoslavia out of the Security Council, cause the Russian leaders to altar their international tactics? It seems clear to us that stable peace cannot be achieved unless and until there is a change in Russian policy. Nevertheless the United States and other Western powers ought to re-examine their own policies. Have we overlooked any possibility? Have we failed to explore any lane which might lead to a reasonable understanding with Moscow? We believe that we have not missed any bets, but we ought to take another look to be sure.

hot or cold foods should also be avoided. Food should be thoroughly chewed and eaten at regular times. It is also suggested that these patients should avoid any stimulating beverages. Many ulcer patients are also benefited by abstaining from smoking. On the other hand, if such abstinence cause restlessness and nervousness, these may overbalance the advantage of avoiding the use of tobacco. Prevention of Colds The prevention of colds Is important for these persons since a «o'd might start a recurrence. The patient must avoid exposure to cold and wet. and should keep out of crowds. It is important, too, that the use of excessive amounts of drugs for treating colds, such as aspirin, should also be avoided. In some cases operative treatment may be required to control a recurrence of ulcers. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS MB: Tbe back of my neck hurts very much, especially when I work for any length of time. What could cause this? Answer: The pain might be due to inflammation of the nerves, meseles. or joints of the spine. You should have a careful study made by your physician to determine the exact cause of your trouble.

Little Damage Done In Three Accidents Cow Chief Victim In Accidents Here Deputy sheriff Robert Shraluka investigated two accidents, one Wednesday, the other this morning. and a car-pedestrian accident was reported to eity police.

The scorch will be removed more rapidly If the material Is moistened first. Cleaning Plano Keys The piano keys can be cleaned by moistening a cloth with lemon Juice and dipping In whiting.
