The Adams county clubs want 1,000 members this year, and although the membership drive concludes today, those whd have delayed in adding their name to the roster are invited to become members this month. 0 © lit Decatur county, Greensburg being the county seat, a campaign will be launched this spring to raise 650,000 to keep the YMCA In that city from closing its doors. That would be a calamity in any city and the Greensburg Daily News vividly calls the public’s attention to this fact. A YMCA or , YWCA, or a community eenter should be. supported in various phases to insure their operation. Greensburg's plight probably stems from a lack of activitiesplanned for the YMCA and a revamping of its program may be necessary. The building should not be closed, for it will stand as an uncomplimentary symbol to community spirit. 0 o The Democratic Digest has made public a list of 137 members of the house and senate whose defeat for re-election Sen.

A Fuller, Longer Life Seen For Coronary Attack Victims -

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. FULL retirement and only a short life expectancy was once thought to be only future possible for a victim of a coronary attack. This type of heart disease occurs when a clot forms in the arteries supplying blood to the heart. Better Expectancy However, the patient’s life expectancy is not nearly so limited as has been generally believed. And all activities need not be completely restricted. Os course, the physician’s instructions must be obeyed in all of these cases, for every case is a little different Study of Disabled Recently, a study was made of a group of men who were granted disability because of this type of heart disease. It was found that 70 per cent lived five years or more, 51 per cent lived 10 years or more, and 34 per cent were still living 15 years after their original heart disablement * Those who suffer from heart disease because of rheumatic fever or other suc-h diseases do not fare as Well as those who have had coronary attacks. Appreci-

ing with Red China. The 137 Republicans listed by the magazine are members who voted for passage of the Mutual Security Act, which provides military, econom-ic,.-and technical assistance to many countries which carry on non-military trade with Communist China. McCarthy himself is in the list, because he voted for the bill. Among the Republican senators on the list, six are up for re-election in 1354. They are Bridges of New Hampshire, Ferguson of Michigan, Hendrickson —of New Jersey, Mundt of South Dakota, Saltonstall of Massachusetts, and Margaret Chase Smith of Baine. Wisconsin voters will have to decide McCarthy’s fate in 1958. ——o —-0 Another Winter Gone: (An Editorial Contribution) In an area used to fairly hard winters, with cold winds and snow lasting several days at a time, the last two winters have been mild. People have been getting about much as they do In summer. So when a heavy snowfall occurred in nearby areas, disrupting pleasant habits, the gripes were loud and bitter. Weather may be heavy, hard to face. Every climate has bad times of some sort. One reason why this region has become so prosperous and progressive is that the climate is hard. Weather changes from month to month, from hour to hour. Early settlers had to adjust themselves or leave or die'. Here were no softening influences. Hard days strengthen the muscles of body and soul. They breed courage and endurance. The man who sails a ship in stormy seas must work with wind and wave or lose life and ship. So » must fail every man who tries to fight God and Nature. But he who produces and saves food, fuel, clothing provided by his earth to keep warm and sheltered when the winds blow will save life and reason. Then when the thaw begins, snow water flows down to moisten and nourish the soil and man sees that without it there is no help for another winter, he becomes conscious of the balance of nature. As ever-recurring spring begins to glow he finds that it strengthens his faith. God and the universe are good to those who use them for good.

modern Jewish Community Center, was organized in Baltimore, Md., in 1854. Other communities followed suit and established YMHAs soon after — Augusta, Ga., in 1857; New York City, 1858; Cleveland, 0., 1859; Syracuse, N. Y., 1861 and Louisville, Ky. —

able numbers of-men recovered sufficiently from their disabling ; heart disease to resume normal employment -- The rates of recovery from disability were greater for younger , than for older men. , Without minimizing the ad- , verse effects and the bad aspects of heart disease, it is encouraging to see that even severe heart disease is compatible with prolonged survival and that there is even the possibility of resuming work again. Follow Advice Os course, any person suffering a heart attack should follow his physician’s instructions explicitly as to his physical care, and he should also follow his advice about work and other activities. The patient suffering from coronary heart disease has greater recovery and survival chances than those with most other types of heart trouble. But it requires careful regulation of all activities as the physician instructs. QUESTION AND ANSWER D. E.: Is it true that cancer of the male organs can be induced by taking male hormones? Answer: No, this is not true. However, If a eaneer is present, ft can intensify and Increase the cancer's action. #

CHAPTER SIXTEEN DR. TALBOY watched Shelly. "Do you know Dr. Lewis?" “Yes, and I've met his wife. There were parties for them when they were married. I liked her, and wondered.. .” “Why she would marry him?” Shelly’s pink cheeks were his answer. “I’m not in the market for gossip as such, Shelly,’’ he said after another pause. “I know you're not, Doctor." “I wish you’d call me by my first name. After all, 1 am Stephen's friend.” “Yes,” she said warmly, "and he likes you very much. All right, it shall be Craig, then. Even in the office ?" “As you choose. Now, if you would tell me what you know about the Lewis setup.” “It isn't much. Dr. Lewis seems very popular—and I thought he was a widower when he first came to Norfolk. But it seemed his wife was an invalid; she died last year. 1 don't remember just when except that it was hot When they had the funeral. He has one child, a grown daughter—she works in the city, 1 believe, and comes home on week ends. I—l don't like the doctor much myself, but he is generally popular.” w “Did Stephen like him?” Shelly frowned in an effort to remember. “1 don't know. He's been at Carr parties. I think he is more popular with women than don't care too much tor middleaged men with amorous manners.” Dr. Tai boy laughed. "Anybody ever tell you that you didn't need to, wiili your youth and beauty?” Shelly's lips pouted her reprooL, “And his marriage..." prompted her caller. . “Oh, yes. Well, it was somewhat sudden. There was a little talk—at least, I neard a little—that Dr. Lewis was courting a woman in St. Williams, and then, all at once, or so it seemed, I heard that they had married. She was house-moth-er at one or the dormitories at the girls' college there. The word house-mother put me off, and I was surprised, when 1 met her, to find her barely thirty. Incidentally, you were already here when they were married.” “Yes. Around Christmas. But I’d never met her until three weeks ago.” His face had gone stern. "She seemed so friendly, and pretty— I was shocked to know that she'd tried to kill herself." Dr. Talboy got to his feet, and leaned ah elbow on the mantel. “I was shocked at her reason for doing it," he said harshly. "Shelly —1 don’t know what Stephen would do under these circumstances! I know I’m supposed to care tor his practice, but he knew me well enough to be sure I would not compromise my own standards of honesty and integrity." “Ot course not,” she breathed. ‘He wouldn't want you to."

Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE I 0 Q. Is it really considered an honor to be asked to sit at a friend’s table and pour tea for an afternoon reception? A. Yes, it is. A hostess will only ask someone of whom she is particularly fond to perform this rite, one who she knows will “do the honors" with deftness and charm. Q. Is it proper for a man to go out for a smoke, between acts in a theater, leaving his woman companion in her seat? A. TJils is the height ot rudeness. unless there are others in the party to entertain her. Even in this case, it is not the most courteous act. Q. When a college man invites a girl to a college week-end, who should pay her hotel accomodations and—meals while—she is there? .A. The man should pay these expenses.

There was a brief silence in the room, then— “I am advising Mrs. Lewis,” Craig’s voice grated, "even before she leaves the hospital, to file suit for divorce from Lewis. He’s a sadist.” be that sort,” mused Shelly. “Doctors are all sorts .of men,” said Craig bluntly. She glanced up in protest "Oh, yes,” he affirmed. “You think of Ideals, oaths, things of that sort. But on a basis of day-to-day performance and character ... I’ve found that doctors run to the average. Here we have men like your Stephen, and all sorts of other men, including Lewis, who, according to my opinion, is not a doctor, and according to all moral standards, is very low as a man. “Rut the best of doctors don’t have much civic conscience. They won’t take a definite stand on issues because that’s bad for pa-tient-relationship. Even your fine husband tolerated Lewis. The men here know what he is, but they do nothing about it, and 1 don't call that a very high standard of medical ideals.” His tone was alumbitter, and he stared moodily into the fire. Shelly moved her foot on the velvet cushion ot the hassock. “Craig,” she said thoughtfully, “why did you become a doctor?” “I’d not be happy doing anything but medicine —any kind ot medicine. 1 don’t mind the work there is to IL 1 don't mind living a life caw records, test reports, case after case—a steady parade ot symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, until 1 live in a sick world. I don't mind that; in fact 1 love it. The thing I find hard to take are the merchants of medicine. The opportunists. The men who use their M.D.’s as a club, a power to gain greater power. A power to bring them money and prestige, all secured, maintained and defended through regimentation of practice and thought! Big medicine. That's what I hate, and what I tight.” He sat staring into the fire which was falling into red coals. “It’s popular, I know’,” Shelly began, after a minute of uneasy silence, “to—” “To condemn all organized business,” he took up her words. “I don't, though, Shelly. I really don’L 1 recognize that it takes brains and courage and imagination to develop a business like the Refractory. And, on the whole, the plant here is a good organization. Still—” “Have you had arguments?” He shrugged. “They cannot seem to get the men to do some of the things 1 consider essential to their health and protection." “Why can’t they? If they’re good things . . ." “I think they’re good, and the company thinks they’re good. But there's such a thing as big labor, too, you kn o w.” His shoulders lifted again, dropped. “There are

Craig looked at her sharply. “You know him?” “I’ve heard Stephen talk to his father abput him. I’ve heard them 4 say they could manage the plant better if Mrs. Evans didn’t belong to so many clubs.” Dr. Talboy thought that one over. “They gi v e programs,” Shelly helped him. “The clubs do—base them on articles in popular magazines.” . / “1 suppose she’s heard a program bn silicosis—and got it ail wrong ...” ‘ Why doesn't the company discharge this Evans if he m a k e s trouble?” _ ‘‘My dear girl, these days nobociy discharges anybody." He grinned at tier, then pulled his feet toward mm and buttoned his coat. "The plant nas its troubles, just as 1 nave mine. Right now, my big one —I’ll make no compromise, you know, on this Lewis thing! I’m going to fight for that wile, all the way! I’m going to fight Lewis as a husband, and I'm going to fight him as a doctor!” He smiled with relish of that coming fight. "I find in that. man a composite of much that is wrong in medicine. Personal morals and integrity have been left too, too far behind, as witness that man’s establishment, his prestige, his freedom to practice with the small knowledge and the big errors which he employs, his power to hurt and to harm, to kill and to cripple, under the protection of his M.D. Yes, sir, I’m going to fight Ervin Lewis!” “Oh, but, Craig," said Shelly unhappily, “he’s an exaggerated case. You won’t find many doctors doing —well, the things he did to ms wife.” “True, he is an exaggerated case, Shelly. I grant that But you need an exaggeration to make your point.” He stood up; Donald came, stretching, out from under the couch. .“I'm going to put that story tn the newspaper, Shelly. 1 came here to warn you that I would. Mrs. Lewis will file suit for divorce, giving all the sordid details.” He paused in the doorway which led to the hall—and sighed. “I’m afraid I can count on Lewis to spoil my good fight,” he said regretfully. “They’ll settle the property thing out of court; he’ll give her the divorce uncontested and she’ll leave town." “But,” said Shelly anxiously, “wouldn’t that be the better tiling ? All around?" "It would be smoother," Craig amended. ITo Be Continued!
