Elevation-and Massage Used To Treat Swelling of the Arm

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. . A SOMETIMES an arm becomes badly swollen and retains excess fluid (edema) because the blood circulation has been blocked. This swelling goes by the name ot elephantiasis of the arm. + One type of elephantiasis found in the Orient and the tropics comes from a parasite carried by certain insects. This germ may invade the lymph glands and channels of the arm, and cause i ■ * severe swelling. We do not, see much of this in temperate climates, but there are many s ' other causes for swollen ./ '' arms. 4, -J, -7 ’- Following Operations On examining the reports of ’ cases of swollen arms in our country, we find that many of them follow surgical operations on the breast. These operations necessitate the removal of part of the breast tissues and glands In the armpits, thus disturbing the blood supply to the arm. Another frequent cause is a - disorder of the blood vessels, in which a clot forms in veins supplying the arm. Usually Painful . The swelling of an arm may come on suddenly, or may develop weeks or months after an ' operation. The arm and hand are usually painful, and balloon to several times their normal size. V One way tn relieve this condi- ■■ 'rm; ■ • ; ' 4 ,;•■ ~ , ~4; I / - ' r " ' '

1 chase of a new pumpqr for the fire department will be financed over a three-year period at a total cost of about SIB,QoO. That is a lot of money for one piece of equipment, but Uw companies produce fire trucks and their cost always has been'high. It .is cheap protection compared with the yalue of property irf the city. The department should be kept up efficiently and the men properly trained. The pay hike will place : city employes on a, more eveh H’V ' ' *’• 111 ' scale with wages paid ip prif~■ ’ i Vale employment. I -1 ' Q- 0 The appointment of Robert D. Murphy, 'to be to Japan, was unanimously confirmed by the senate. Murphy’s?training in our foreign embassies befar as; 1917. He lias been almost uninterruptedly in important diploniatiic posts eversince. He j negotiated with the "French when we landed in North - Africa, and succeeded in< haying ! our invasion go almjost unresisted. For this achievement, he’won a ■ Distinguished Service medal. He also arranged for the Italian ar- ' f j 1 I 1 J. p ' misHce. ■ Since 1949 he has been ( director of the statq department’s office of German and Austrian affairs. Few nations. can show a diplomat with as. long and an effective a career as that of Robert D. Murphy. ' o o— — Gov.

At 68, he feels he should' ndt run for office again arid poosiers who know of his excellent service to the state, grant that he is entitled to a rest. If Mr. Schricker were younger, hje would be the ideal candidate for president and if elected, would be ope t of the most able men “to serve in the nation’s highest s' j • .■ " ■ 1 ' - ‘ Office. ■ - / o ) ■ i r ; ±_L

tioh is to hold the arm above „ the head, thus permitting excess fluid to drain from the arm and hand; Different types of apparatus may be hooked, up to keep the arm elevated during the sleeping hours. i - r -1 i\ Elastic Sleeve / - J , After the fluid has drained out at night, a .heavy elastic sleeve may be fitted snugly around the patient’s arm in the morning. The sleeve can often be discarded after about six months of this treatment, and the swelling will not return. . | Massage is also important Tor a swollen arm. About twice a day is a good schedule,* and the massage should last at least ten minutes each time. In addition, a diet that is low in salt helps reduce the/swelling more quickly. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS S. L.L.: Are leukoplakia dangerous and what causes them? I have several in my mouth. Answer: Leukoplakia are usually caused by some form of chronic irritation to the affected part. In the mouth, they may be due to poor dentures, excessive smoking, or to some other form of chronic irritation. Most leukoplakia Should be treated immediately, since, if they are neglected, they may prove dangerous in so far as . .maLjmancjf later onisconceiiiecL . . j ' - I’. . .4 ■-4 ' . LI -

"She wants to do something, like have a career.” Leonie resented their look oi astonishment, f*l don’t see anything funny about that,” she said loftily. “Lots of women are doing things in the world nowadays.” “You mean like being an actress ?"• McHugh asked. “A suffragette," Mary suggested and they all roared at the very idea of the mannishly dressed ladies who marched through the streets with banners. “I don’t really know what I want to do," Leonie said. VI don’t know if I have any talent 7 ! can’t paint, and I can’t play the piano, but maybe I could write. I want to do something." “You’ve come home with big ideas from college,” Catherine said flatly. Leonie reddened but she did not argue. “Anyway, that’s the way I feel about nt,” atU' said“Nobody from Charleston was ever a writer,” McHugh said, with that manner Leonie hated, demonstrating that no one from home could eyer do anything. ' { “Besides, there’s nothing ever happens in Charleston to write about,” Catherine said. “It’s the deadest place ...” 1 , Leonie was relieved when the car stopped at the terminal. I "The cabin about half a mile,” Joseph said. “The gyirls kin put on they bathing suits first and then we go in and change ours.” “It’s thoughtful of you to make that arrangement, Joe,” Leonie said. “I was afraid you might want us all to change together.” 1 The other girls shrieked appreciation of this daring joke. Joseph did not take it too well. He looked at Leonie .with a puzzled smile. "Don’t let your Uncle hear you say anything like that,” he admonished her seriously. “I promise him to take good care of yoy.” On the beach Joseph walked along beside Leonie, expatiating on the various forms of crustaceans whose shells had been rolled up and down by years and years of the tide. He picked up a tiny white shell,, completely perforated, and explained to Leonie how the enemies of that particular kind of animal had pierced his armor. “You do know a lot about tilings like that,” Leonie said, f “I always tries to find out some4’h ’4l' ' , 1 .•! 4. : I

thing," Joseph said, ’’even when I out for pleasure ... A lot of people don’t think I’m bright,” he added, "but they’s a lot o’ things I know thaf they don’t." “Oh, I don’t think anyone could be so mean as to say you weren’t bright, Joe,” Lepnie said. “That r s nice of you, Leonie,” Joseph said, looking kt her with eyes full of devotion. The girls got hurriedly into their swimming dresses and black stockings and yielded the cabin to the young men, who were soon ready. “Now we git in a good swurff’ Joseph said, "and I teach Leonie how to float.” He stood there in an attitude of protection, and Leonie had to admit that his appearance was impressive. *Tni going in ;for a little swipi first," Leonie said, looking after the others, who had already made for the water. “You go ahead asjd have yours. Then you can teach me to float, if you think you can teach me.” 3. > fl They swam in the mild wati?r until they were tired and hungry and then seized Upon the lunch boxes. The • men lighted cigarets, all except Joseph, who explained With patient pride that his abstention was for the sake of his voice, and Catherine lighted one too and smoked it with an air of bravado. Leonie thought of Lincoln Calvert’s diatribes the land ruined by cotton and corn, and the need of a system of farming which would keep the soil fertile year after year, the way it was in European countries,, and suddenly wished that she had not been so quick to take offense. She missed his easy conversation and his ideas and his air of being interested in hers. ’ . • ' Joseph got up and\st retched. “I feel tike another swim,” he announced. “Leonis, want to try them floatin’ lessons now?” - Leonie shook off the sand which half-covered het and stood up. “AU right," she Said. “Now, don’t you duck me, Joe.” - •/ ■ 1 ; But Joseph had go such playful intentions. “River water better for teachin' people to float,” he said seriously. “This surf move tod much. But we golnta do the best we kin. Now you jist loosen up, Leonie, and lay down eende wafer. Jist let go. I’ll ketch you if you starts to sink.” Leonie tried her best, but each time she became tense and commenced to sink. Joseph’s arms were under her. She could fee) the power in his lift, even under the water. 4 " “I can’t,” she protested. \ I “Anybody kin do it," Joseph insisted patiently. "You try again, now. All righty loosen up.” “The word is relax,” Leonie said. “AU right,” Joseph said. “Call ’em whatever you like.” A Leonie made another attempt, and this time a breaker cataght her.

"It’s like the limb of a tree," she thought. \ “You sure are thing, Leonie,” Joseph saidLeonie slid down to a standing position. “That’s enough for a while,JosepMsaid. “All you need now is to feel sure you kin do it. We kin walk along the beach a little and you kin git your breath back." He strolled beside her, idly kicking the shallow water and apparently deep in thought. He did not speak until they were a couple of hundred yards away from the others. , “Leonie,” he said. “I sure feel happy out here with you.*’ I Leonie drew \a sharp breath. She had hoped that this wouldn’t happen. - ,/ ‘| “I guess I must/be in love,” Joseph said, haltingly, and turning a beet red. “You ever been in love, Leonie ?” ! “I don’t really know,” Leonie said.\ “I guess not.” “I wish you could feel that'way about me,” Joseph said. “I don’t have’to be a singer, you know.

; CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO Z j HENRI was pleased to I see Joseph Newman again the following Wednesday. Leonie wasn’t; She had wanted, that day at the beach, to be kind, but as the days passed she knew that she had let herself in for another session of pleading, sooner or later; Joseph wasn’t the kind to give up hope easily. ;He had brought her a box of candy and two delicate and intricate shells from his Collection. He talked about the picnic and his singing career, but he looked Woebegone and he was less interesting than eVer. -She was tremendously relieved when he consulted his bulky Ingersoll and decided it was time to go. He appeared again on Friday evening and asked Leonie if she would like to attend the band Concert with him Sunday afternoon. ‘Thanks, but I don’t believe I would,” Leonie said, and then she added, a little cruelly, “I don’t take much interest in music.” 1 Bitter disillusionment showed in Joseph's unprotected face. “No?” he inquired. “That’s too bad, Leonie. I don’t see how anybody kin git along without music.” guess I’Vie just had a bit too much of it,” Leonie said. “I’ve lived with a singer ever since I was three ” She oould see that Joseph was weighing the chances of happiness with a woman who did not care for music. '* 'j “Well, Leonie,” he said after a pause; “that would make me kind of a nuisance, I guess.” “I i didn’t mean anything like that,” Leonie assured him, but she hoped he would take the hint The pews of the German invasion of Belgium shook Henri out of his indifference to world affairs, and he spent the breakfast period comparing it to the invasion of Sputh Carolina. Heloise seem tremendously impressed by the fate of Belgium. “It*S too bad,” 'she said, “but I’ve got too many, troubles of my own to worry about Europe.” Reflecting that women were incurably narrow in their views,* Henri set off .for work. Since both of them were punctual in their hgbfts, it was not surprising that he and! Colonel Beecham met. ‘Terrible news,” said the Colonel after they had exchanged greetings. “Terrible news.” , “It reminds me of the War,” Henri said. /‘History repeats itself,” said the Colonel, looking around at houses he and Henri could remem bes jn a state es dilapidation after the bombardment. “In more ways than one.

A 'I Qerman. I expected it But it makes me mad all the shine.” . Henri nodded. ; IT “I’d like to give him a piece of my mind,” said the Colonel, h|s usually mild eyes blazing; “and I tell you right here and now that I would. Except for the unfortunate fact that I haven’trspoken to the fellow in fifty-three years and I’m not going to begin now.” Henri agreed that this; made reproof i insuperably difficult. - , “By the way,” Colonelßeecham said, cooling off a bit t /‘I heard from Miss Julie Gerard that you have some interest in a legacy left by one of your French relatives. You had better see that something is done promptly 4 I’m afraid this war will tie up any French funds of that sort.” “I’ll do that, Colonel, ’■* Henri Skid. ’Thank you.” i They parted, and Henri, dis* turbed, wondered if he ought to indulge in the extravagance of sending a telegram to Cousin Eugenie Poiron. After considerable silent debate, he did so. That left him exactly fifteen cents in his pocket, and the fear that Cousin Eugenie might take it into her head to send a reply collect. But Cousin Eugenie spaced him this difficulty. He had a letter from her in the Wednesday morning mail. The Colonel had' been right. The New York lawyers had informed her that it, was impossible to go any further until normal conditions were restored. j' He passed the letter to Heloise. “Well, Brother,” she said, “I know this is a great disappointment to you but I never expected any better. I notice she doesn’t say anything about returning all that money you sent her." i “Why of course they can’t return the money,” Henri said. “You take my advice and don’t put another red cent into this.” “You talk as if the money had been thrown away,” Heiijri said pettishly. “Why, this is only a delay. The war will be pVer soon and then they’ll be able to go ahead.” | s h . But Henri was bitterly pointed and on his way to work • he avoided Colonel Beecham, who, he could not help feeling, was somewhat responsible for this turn in his affairs. And he did not listen to Mrs. Emmons. He did not want to hear anything about old Calvert 1 : pro-Gcrmans Were not to his taste that morning. 1 j “Young mcntleman to see you, Mr. Lemay," William said, with the air of repeating a statement. “See me?
