And he adds, that is more money than the people have. There is in circulation a little over 328,000,000,000.00, which added to -the gold reserve gives the nation 50odd billions.

DOCTORS are constantly searching for new uses for peni*. cillin. ‘We now have reports tliat "wonder drug” may be useful in preventing rheumatic fever. a serious disease in i>oth children and The reason rheumatic fever is so dangerous is because it can attack the heart as well * as the joints. A case of rheumatic ,fevori can "leave a child -with a permanent type of heart disease. Infection by a type of bacteria known as the streptococcus often; precedes an attack of rhekimatic fever. Some believe the ifever is a form of allergy to thebe I [bacteria. They think that if they '.I can prevent the streptococcal in- ' section, they may also be able to protect the patieftt against • t rheumatic fever. Penicillin is one of the best drugs for controlling streptococcal infections, and has'resulted in cures that seetn miraculous. P Tests haye therefore been made ' to see if this drug could prevent the first attack of rheumatic fevejr, as well as recurring attacks after a person has had the dis•,ease. In one test, over l.OOft patients were given* penicillin whenever there wa« any evidence of strep-

— — ? i . r tsame fiscal year is estimated at 71-billiona, leaving an estimated deficit of 14-billions. Congress may reduce the appropriations and do doubt wilj, for the nation is not yet on an all out war basis. Out of every dollar, 60 cents is for the military services, 13 cents for foreign aid, seven cents interli 1 ■i 'i I est on public debt, five /dentg, veterans programs and 15 cents sou all other governmental ei- — peuaes. It is clear that i£> substantial cuts are made, the pruning must be done in military and foreign aid appropriations. Unless the government’s income can be increased from new taxes or other revenue, many congressmen believe that the defense program should be cut. . —o—» — '' fl Russian Travel:— h A housewife who keeps her home neat and clean need never \ fear visitors. If her housekeeping • is slovenly, however, the approach of a caller is always an embarrassing moment and visitors may be discouraged by the coolness of their welcome. Something of the same principle may motivate the new Russian order which further restrhits the travel of our diplo , mats. They may now travel only twenty-five miles fropi Moscow without special permission and the list of cities they may not visit has been increased. fl It has been suggested that the State Department retaliate by curtailing- the unrestricted travel privilege® which Soviet diplopiats in this> country have enjoyed. Perhaps such a move might teach the Kremlin that diplomatic courtesy is a reciprocal matter. But : the step would be taken with reluctance. I ’■ J i ij • t I j America is the showcase of democracy. Nowhere else in the world has the democratic system produced m<4e astounding results. Our great cities, mills, and industries ate a tribute to the efforts of a free people. Our farms and communities are the best answer to the accusation that capitalism exploits the masses. Those ■who trayel through America may find things to criticise, but. the vajst picture of freedom, wealth and power must certainly impress them. If we restrict the travel of Soviet representatives it will not be because we have anything to bide, but because the Russian tense of insecurity,and inferiority, !

A control group of over i.OCrt) patients received no penicillin for the same type of infection. Os all the patients receiving penhillin,, only two developed rheumatic fever, while 28 of those not treated with penicillin devel-, oped the disease. '| ’j,. j These results are so good that doctors may how 1 consider giving; penicillin the first symptoms of streptococcus infection,:! and thus head off the damage from rheumatic heart disease. Os course, penicillin should be used <>nly under the direction |pf the physician. ; QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS i W.F.: I am 74 yeafs of age and have numbness in i both hands. , Wake up at night and have to rub my • hands; for awhile.

Sometimes lying iu bed a fixed position feauses i pressure cufs off the circulation. It is not a matter for great concern. I

CHAPTER TWENTY-biINE DONALD'S class was taking its midyear examination. The room was quiet save tor the occasional shuffle of feet, a deep sigh, the dropping of a pencil Donald, at his desk in the front of the room, seldom raised his eyes. He did not believe la close supervision. From the qeginmng he had treated his students sub. iumorabie adults and had expected honorable adult behavior in return. At first there had been Incredulity, imposition on such apparent leniency, and some disciplinary problems. But gradually he had made himself felt. I He exhibited a tong patience, although upon need bis blue eyes could burn and bis voice ring cold as steel. The quiet force he exuded then was tar more telling than explosive anger- And his reprimands, were invariably just. It was understood that he would stretch a point in favor of those ne feß were mentally unable to keep up with him or the clasa But toward the sloths, the deceivers, the gifted, be showed no such tolerance. He was, moreover, rigidly exact tn bis marking of papers and would always explain, if there were questions, how a mark had been arrived at. He could and did laugh with the boys and girls at their brand of humor, and he could and did make jokes of his own.: For all these reasons, and also for his enthusiasm for his subject, but most of all for his interest in them as human beings, he had tong before now become , the most popular teacher in the high school. He! had led hiS pupils progressively from a consideration of t hemgclves as individuals to a consideration of themselves as members of different social groups, toward which they held a measure of responsibility, in which they would find many varied opportunities for work and service, and where they could enjoy more freedom than is enjoyed anywhere else in the world. As individuals he had helped them explore and inquire into their inherited and acquired characteristics. He believed they thoroughly understood the Mendelian law; the various other influences that shaped them, such as parental attitudes, religious trailing, a well or poorly administered town} and, finally, the need for a good environment in homes and schools and neighborhoods where

they and all young people might grow to reach their best abilities and develop their finest char? acters. They bad a pretty good Idea, too, of what these homes and neighborhoods should be like. He had stimulated them to think about such matters, and to realist that they had choices but that to exercise their choices rightly they must first discover the truth about situations. They must guard against bias knd graft and corruption. They must also go behind beware of the blare of radio, and read more than one newspaper. For only so could they get at the facts which would shape their decisions and their acts... It had been an exciting and rewarding time. The boys and girls, enchanted to discuss personal problems rather than the larger, vaguer ones Os town and state and nation, had responded with alacrity to the subject matter he had presented. They had been particularly pleased with the chance given them for self-analysis whereby they could come to a decision regarding their own future places in the world. Eagerly they had written papers setting forth their aims and ambitions, their selection of Jobs or vocations, and their reasons for these selections. Then, briefly, he had outlined for them the differences there were in opportunities and requirements for the self-employed, the white collar, workers, and the wage earners. Together they had compared risks, incomes, satisfactions, and, finally, the best ways of securing such work together with the part education played toward their probable success tn it. AD this had prepared them for' a consideration of themselves not only as individuals but as member*’ of family groups and of their own homes, with their special obligations to them, and—last but not least—of the ways in which they would like to make improvements when they came to the point of establishing future homes for themselves. They had debated in class some of the strains and conflicts and arguments they themselves were meeting. These had covered a wide range of subjects -—the matter of allowances, of: compulsory church attendance, of unwanted advice as to dress, of. whether or not wives and mothers should work, of the effects of di?i voice, of dating rules, of engage-

Donald had been both pleased and, appalled at the frankness with which they talked and the questions they brought to him on]! which tliey sought advice. It was gratifying when, at his suggestion of remedial possibilities, his students returned to report successes. “Mr. Kent!” The peremptory tone with its hint of pertness was Edna’s. “Miss Borowski?” |j : - “I can’t read that last Word in the third question.” “Person. ’What are the objectives of education find what are some of the marks of an educated person?" “Thanks." Donald looked for ja moment at the girl, bent again over th: desk. Edna had taken on fa special interest for him ever"; since Christmas Sunday when he had walked out of church and seen her standing there. In astonishment he had nodded a greeting gnd then, out of curiosity, had approached her. "Surprised, aren’t : you,” she had said saucily. - 1 “Well, rather." !p She bad tossed her head, her eyes running quickly over the others coming out now. Her! lively glance, jumping from one exit to the other, was watching for someone, and she was holding him there in conversation with her as an excuse for lingering., When he saw her attention* leave him momentarily and heard running flow of words falter, he sought the cause and found it In Joe Meiick. She stopped breathing as he passed her, seemed about to step forward toward Him, and then was checked by his unseeing eyes. Donald had heard her give a quick gasp as if she had been slapped. AbrupUy. she had asked him a question. “Hey! Tell .me. Didn’t Anne Atwood come today?" Startled, he waited a moment trying to establish the connection before he answered. But Anne had been coming out of the nearer door just then, and, as hie was formulating a reply, Edna had said,. “Never mind. Well, guess I’ll be on, my way. Sa tong. See you!” And, trippingly, with a curious look of mingled triumph and angry defeat on her face,|:shc had departed. h' ’ ’ /Tn Rn ) '■■lSs
