■ —— .. . : Repeated Illness in a Family Calls for Thorough Chfeck-Up

• -< By IKSMAIi N. B'JHDESEN, M.D. . | - NEARLY every doctor has seen '• /j Irstahces where an entire family i will have an outbreak of an infection such as the commcn cold, severe diarrhea, or vomiting. Most of these Infections are not too • -j; serious and do not bring serious complications. The mother too often may ignore her own illness to go on caring for her family. She then may re-infect the other members of the family once she has supposedly nursed them all back to wellbeing. This can .result in a vicious cycle that never seems to end for her. She would be better off if sympathy -were replaced by a healthy attitude toward her own health. i Family infections are caused, in some instances, by viruses, which are germs so small that they pass through normal porcelain filters that stop the darger bacteria or * germs. Many of these infections may clear up by themselves without treatment. However, more difficulty arises yrhen there is a family outbreak Os an infection due to a bacteria rather than a virus, because of the < .difficulty in permanently eradicating this type of infection, although in each case, the infection may be responsive to the antibiotic drugs and can be rapidly cured. |i Recurrences Likely If the infections that are pres-, •, ' ent fin members of the family are' all not cured, it is very likely that I

ward peace. If the North Koreans and Chinese Communists really want to terminate all fighting, they can do so by not obstructing plans for making the armistice effective. Although south Korea did not join in signing the truce,’ President Syngman Rhee that he would not obstruct the plan. His troops stopped firing at the appointed armistice hour. The world did not celebrate the signing of the pact, for there is apprehension of the dangers which lie in the future negotiations between the UN and the Chinese. The armistice brought to an end 37 months of savage fighting in Korea. American casualties are nearly 135,000. The United States has nearly 300,000 men in the battle scarred country. The ray of sunshine from the truce is that prisoners of war will be freed. At least 3,500 Americans will be released by the Communists and hurried back to the United States. Veterans who have served many months in Korea , will be rotated home. Plans call for 35,000 soldiers to be exchanged each month. The road to peace lies ahead! 0 0For some of the men, it wilLbe - home by Christmas. —o—o— How many troops will the United States hold .in Korea? The present number is given at 300,000? Jf conditions warrant, the army will be reduced, but it will be several months until this fact can be .determined? 0 (!__ The stock market quivered a little over news of the Korean truce, but regained confidence . and prices leveled off fractions higher than at the opening of the board. It’s foolish to think that business will cease just because killing has ended in Korea. Gov. Craig will not be able to accept the appointment as a delegate to the United Nations General Assembly, because the Indiana constitution prevents him from' holding such an Office while ■serving aS governor. Mr. Craig was named by President Eisenhower and nb doubt would have enjoyed the experience as a UN delegate. Most state constitutions prevent their chief executive from accepting any appointment during their elected term of Office. And Indiana’s chief executive did not ch(MX-e to resign. ' i i ■ I

there will be recurrences of the infection within the family group. That is why certain children may get repeated sore throats or ear infections over a short period of time. , | f. .. . Many mothers will not worry about their own throats, but \will call a doctor immediately for their children’s throats. By doing this, the infection may continue within the mother and she may re-infect her children before too much time passes. Same Germ, Different ills It has been shown that the same kind of germ can cause a lung infection in one member of the family, boils in another, and an. ear infection in a third. The sinuses, lungs and other parts of the body can be affected by tfie same kind of germ. A great variety of different diseases all caused by the same germ may exist. > . . Therefore, when more than one member of the family Is sick, it is often best to have the entire family treated with the proper antibiotic. In this way, Repeated infections withinthe same family might be prevented, f - QUESTION IgND ANSWER f Mrs. J. K.: I had aii operation to have my tubes taken out after my last child was bom. Is there any .way fny ability to have children can be restored? Answer: Yes, there is an operation now being performed to re- ' establish the tubes nbrmally so ■ that pregnancy can occur again.

• SYNOPSIS Having imbibed unwisely while attending a convention away from home, successful businessman David Barton awakens unsteadily in a small hotel room. His slumber had been disturbed by bad dreams, but bad dreams had been .usual with him ever since, the bitterness of grief had so completely engulfed him. i It was the grief, he told himself, which caused ' him to drink too much. He who'd always been a sober fellow! David's family and. friends had begun to worry gravely over his strange conduct and it was proving a new barb in the gentle heart of his good wife, Emily. At home once more and suffering with a severe ease of "flu" David resolves to be done with the drinking business, now and forever As a first step lin his new direction, he drives to Vermont to visit his mother, and en route stops off at "Daleway." the which all of the Barton ooys had attended—which his cherished son. scventeeh-yeartold Tim. had attended up to the time Qf his recent tragic death. CHAPTER FIVE IN THE school building Dave sat down to wait on a corridor bench. Miss Stark vanished. There was time for escape, but with what explanation? People connected i with the school Went past; some knew, and stopped to speak i.tb him, and Miss Stark returned with her report. 1 "Dr. Newton says on no account are you to grow bored with waiting. On the other hand, you’re to wait in comfort.” As if he were a pupil, she gave him instructions. "He's telephoned Mrs. Moran. He says, leave the car keys with me. Jim can put the car up for you—. he wonders why you didn't leave it in the parking space—and he’ll take your tags over to the house. Recause, of course, you’ll stay for dinner and the night.” The house was nearby, gray stone, like the other buildings, ample, charming. Dave walked over, and rang. Mrs. Moran opened the door. She had a face like a pleased apple. "Well, Mr. Barton,” she said, "this is a nice surprise,. Jim,” she added, speaking of her son, who did odd jobs'at the Head’s house and attended the school, on scholarship, 'lie’s over at Great Hall, unpacking books. Dr. Newton phoned. Jim will put the car up and bring your bag over. I’ll show you to the study. Would you like some tea?” He thanked her, declining, and followed her to the study. It was smaller than the one at Great Hall, less formal, but rather like it, being colored by books, an orderly clutter of pictures and of the things sent the Head ,by Old Boys scattered all over the world. Boys were never called to this i room for reprimand or conference but came socially, alone or in small groups, of an evening or a Sunday. -

Frank Kresler Dies At Rensselaer Home Frank Kresler. 73. Rensselaer, former partner in the operation of the Adams theater here with the late Van R. Grant, died at his home Monday afternoon. Death resulted from a heart ailment. Surviving are two sons and two daughters. Funeral services will be held in Rensselaer Thursday afternoon. Kresler never resided in Decatur. but visited here oh many occasions in the middle twenties, when he was part owner of the motion picture house. Commissioners To Meet Next Monday County commissioners will meet at the courthouse next Monday for what promises to be one of their busiest and most hectic sessions, according to information from county offices. Routine clahns wil| be accepted in the morning and bidding carried on later for new spouting and painting of tjarn No, 1 al the Adams county home. The spouting would be 125 feet long and six-inch stock. The contractor for this work must carry worker’s liability insurance.

Presently the Head tore in, briskly, - wearing an old suede jacket, having as usual left his more formal \attlre at Great Hall. They shook hands and Newton asked, “Been to your room yet? No? Moran must be slipping—but, then, she’s new here, been with us only 15 years!” "1 dare say she thought you’d be right over. Anyway, I really should get on home! I just stopped off to say hello.” "You've said it. Not much of a conversationalist, are you? What brings you this way?" “I’m on my way home from my mother’s. ’ "Does Emily insist upon yoiir presence tonight, or didn’t you tell her you were coming here ?” “Well, no, to the first question,” he answered uneasily —"and yes to the second. I saiSVI might stay, I wasn't sure.” v r 1 "You’ll stay. How did you find —and leave—your mother?” “In better health than most of us, doctor.” "I’ve one more appointment. You look tired, so 1 suggest a hot bath and a nap. Then food. I’ll meet you here around six.” His tone added, and no nonsense! He rang for Mrs. Moran and she came to say that Jim had parked the car and brought Mr. Earton s bag over and, of course, his room > was ready. Newton went out, characteristically, by a French window, and Dave, his feet heavy and his heart an abyss, followed Mrs. Moran upstairs. ) The room to which he was taken was not, thank heaven, the one which he and Emily had occupied. It was on the far corner, overlooking the garden. It occurred to him, as he docilely took his bath and then lay on the bed, under a blanket, that when you returned to Daleway you became, always, 14, or at the most 17 * and 813 y° U WCre He slept, suddenly, deeply, and woke in dusk, to look at the time. He’d better snap into it if the Head expected him in the study at six. Downstairs. “Would you like a drink, Dave?” “No, thanks. I’m not drinking nowadays. I expect you’ve heard that I have—had—been for quite a spell, and considerably ?” ‘Tve heard,” admitted Newton, without comment. “What decided you to stop?” “It wasn’t helping* ■> - ’ “I see.” And Dave thought, I believe he

"Why not?” ;T 'don’t know. Os reasons you have;suggested, none seems valid to me." . ' 11 "I understand you’ve consulted a psychiatrist.” “Yea, one of the best, Rpbert Elwood. Does everyone know?” , “Can’t say as to that but I’d occasion to write George—incidentally. 1 wrote you this morning —you’ve saved me a stamp —and I he answered. 1 had, in my letter, i suggested such a course. 1 saw Emily while you were away from home.” “Everyone’s very happy about 1 me and my psychiatrist, except the two most concerned. George shouldn’t bother you about me.” “How much good did Dr. Eli wood!s microscope do you?” e “I shan’t sermonize, Dave. But there was an earlier David. You can read about him in the Old Testament. You should learn about him and of the death of his first child by Bath-sheba. It was written in the Second Book of Samuel that, when this child lay ill,; his father fasted and prayed blit,; when the child died, David rose from the earth, washed and anointed himself, worshipped, and then , broke his ; fast. His servants couldn’t understand this and asked why.” Newton took the. worn Bible - from his desk, found the passage, and read aloud: “‘And he said, - While the child was yet alive, I I fasted and wept: for I said. Who s can tell whether God will be gracious to me, that the child may live? i “‘But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him but he shall not return to me. 1 ” ► (To Be Continued.)

Forced To Resign ROME, Italy, UP—The Italian chamber of deputies today rejected !the new government of Premier Alcide De Gasperi and forced him to fresign. } The downfall <Jf De Gasperi had been . forecast by the dwindling support given his policies in a week of parliamentary debate. It was hastened by widespread resentment of a United States and Western Big Three invitation to President Tito of Yugoslavia to consult in Washington, oh rearmament. Italy has been feuding bitterly wlp Yugoslavia ever since the end of World War II oven control of the strategic Trieste area. De Gasperi, closely identified With Uj,iS. and western plans for a European army and the Atlantic pact, took the rap for Italian resentment of western to Wo<> Tito. ‘ \ l e drjew stony silence from pld friends' and jeers from the left in today’s final appeal to the chamber to give his tottering government a vpte* of confidence. The official was 263 for the government and 282 against. Tht>re jvere 27| absentions —- enough to hav*e swung the vote in De Gasper 's favor.
