Lazy Thyroid Chus e Pains

t IF YOU have been, suffering from severe headaches. with pains in the face, and lileck, trouble may be due to.a dazy thyroid gland, end . you bad I better see your doctor ip stead pt Bust taking self-prescribed head.wche tablets. 4 Incidentally,' jhjs of pains is a frequent patients describe the symptojns as an intense or dull ache, oi* a thronbiug t pain \ just Jn T front '.of the ear» up into the head aid dov-Ti the back of the neck. I Sometimes these people alslo have a feeling pt pressure over the chest, and even severe chept pains. Usually, tlfe pain pecurr when the person is. overtired, and, may last from an hour to - 21; hours. ; • I According to recent thought,! an underactive thyroid gland may be at the bottom-yof this disorder. This is known medically ‘as a hypothyroid conditionr- and comes from, a d<?fk’|sJH7 of thyroid hot;, inoue iu the blood. Lack of thyroid hormone prevents the, body, cells from getting enough Oxygen and nutrition, and thus causes |he pain. This explanation is only one of many that, have been offered regarding this type of disorder. * Tests were recently made with persons who Ijad tlie paius in the face, neck and head as de-

He Jo have been Influenced by Wilson’s breakdown, and a desire to avoil the same fate fo|r himself. A C t least this ,la thp premise of Hughes’ recent biographer, Merlo J. Pusey, who tells the story. The course of history cbuld have been changed with the election of Hughes instead of* 1 Warren G. Harding. 1! .—— Continuing his 1< ctu'res at Hard vard University, S »n. Paul Douglas contended that the should pay the cost of political '-i’’ ft*- - campaigns for federal offices, including those for congress and the presidency. He sgid that individuals who financed campaigns tor candidates expected to get their money back through favoriteism and legislation. The Illinois senator estimated that the cost of; electing a U.S. senator could be figured at 1200,000 and thai a candidate for the presidency couldn’t make a rice under twp million dollars. There is a school of thought that government should pay these costs, but it is not likely that congress will vote in favor of such a plan for many years. 0 o— — I The Draft:— It Rep. Carl Vinson of Georgia, chairman of the Itovise Armed Services Committee}, has his way. ! any definite plan for a universal military training program will in- ■ elude a provision that oie present draft for the military services be ended within a year after UMTis started. The presidential authority to call up reserves also would be j •} . The Vinson proposal is based bn sound reasoning. It, would hot make sense for UMT to compete with the draft and the recruitment of men for normal duty with the services. That is exactly what it would do under’ the present blueprint. A program of universal train- ? ing should accomplish two things: it should keep the active services at their desired strength at all times, and R should provide in adequate pool of trained reserves. Thp project as presently planned I would fulfill only one of these Objectives, the provision of a pqbl \of reserves. | If the nation is to, take the radical step of establishing the program should be designed and operated to meet both standing and emergency manpower needs of the armed forces. - I d . 1 n i ■ .v. ,4 'H ' , ....

scribed above, and who also had a hypothyroid condition. Taking thyroid by mouth brought great improvement iu ail of these patients, usually after two weeks of treatment. It is important to remdmber, however, that thia type , of .treatment should not be undertaken unless a physician has- first made a careful physical J examination, together- with adequate tests to find out if a ihyrpid deficiency really exists. This, is best determined by making g. metabol- ; ism • test after the patient has been at rest at least eight hours. A blood test to determine the amount of cholesterol* in the blood stream can also give a clue. i If a genuine thyroid deficiency I is present, the physician can then I prescribe the exact dose of thyroid needed by the individual 'patient. | QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Shingles which has persisted for ilho past six months.

CHAPTER t WENT Y-EIGHT DON WENT pn with his story of being put out of ..the Country Club and being unable to find Anne there. • “She didn't come?" “No. The dance floor was filling up r and sbe a still hadn't arrived. I discovered a tew tamiliar faces, but no one I knew very well. And then someone Cached my arm, and 1 turned and saw Mr. Ostrom standing beside me with Mr. Randall and Mr. Melick and a fourth man who was introduced as a Mt. Caldwell.” • > , , \T "He’s the club president this year.” . «■ "Yes. Well—” ♦ Briefly he told them the'rest. There had been perfunctory conversation for a few moments. Donald’s position in town had been explained to Mr. Caldwell, who had said, “Oh, yesl Yes.” Then Mr. Ostrom had abruptly asked him if that had been Edna Borowski talking with him outside of church on Christmas Sunday morning. Don had agreed that it was and had said she was a pupil of hia. L. J .. ■ .T 1 Wieratand your pupils are quite fond of you," Ostrom had said. Then Mr. Randall had abruptly f asked him if he had a membership card. “I thought I sensed then which way the wind was blowing. I had brought Sam Mapes into the Youth Group. I had — supposedly — been the one to attract Edna Borowski. What kind of person would I be likely to bring to the Country Club ? Maybe that’s all wrong, but that’s the only thing I could, think of. Anyway, I said I hadn’t a card. Randall wanted to know next if I was a guest of someone. The way he asked it I could have knocked him down. But I restrained myself and said I most certainly was, and I gave Anne’s name. Then Caldwell spoke up. Clearing his throat and hemming ami hawing, he told me that Anne wasn’t really a member herself. But because of her position as your daughter it had been a courtesy to extend her the club* privileges without demanding that she join. Is that right?” Constance and Barth both fielded. "Vl7e couldn’t afford to join. Both, clubs extended that courtesy. It’s customary, I believe. We’ve always been appreciative." .■ y > ■ ri

He was very sorry, but that was why they had committees. Otherwise it would be so easy for people to take advantage. Not that I had-—” He gestured. “You know the tripe!” “Yes,” Constance murmured. "He was very sorry,” Donald went on, bitterness in his tone. “He regretted exceedingly, but, after all, those were the rul&s, ahd he could not have them Imposed upon. Would I please realize he was only carrying out the rules when he asked me to leave. There was nothing personal, he hoped Ti understood that quite clearly. A: teacher is always in good standing; in the community, and he was sure' if I wished to submit my name through the proper channels in the, proper way—" He stopped. "Well,; I got out,” he finished shortly. ■! “I never heard; of anything so; small!” Constance exclaimed. She turned to her husband. "Barth?”; "There’s one thing I don’t under-! stand,” Barth said slowly. "Why didn’t Alvin Melick come to your rescue ? He could .have. It’s the; kind of thing be would like to dh, I believe. Ride down a majority; Show his authority. After all, you were to be Joe’s guest, too, in a sense, since Anne was bis guest and you were all to have gone together. As a matter of fact, I I think Alvin is on the Membership Committee, although I’m not sure. I .can’t keep up with things like that.” He passed his hand across his eyes. “Randall, I can imderstand. And 1 have no doubt he was at the bottom of the whole business.” , j He paused, thinking for* a mqment how sorry he was now that he had not warned Donald, as he had intended doing way back last September, aga|nst plunging into things too quickly. : i i ; “But Ostrom,” he went on. “And Melick. Particularly MUick—unless be wasn't sure enough of his 1 own position to speak up befofte the president. That might have been what kept him silent." .[ I “Melick never peeped. I kept expecting him to, but he never peeped.
