Even though writing a week late, since heavy advertisement pushed the column out last week, I am still grief-stricken over the passing of Dr. R. B. McArthur, a physician in the city for 30 or more years. His doth should grieve many as he knew all his patients and served them, money or no money. He was recognizedi as one of the best.

Local Chapter Deltas Honor All Founders
Chi chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., commemorated the tounding of the sisterhood with a special program last Friday night in the Atherton Center of Butler University, Delta Sigma Theta wras chartered as a sorority in 1913, after having participated for several years in a campus Greek-letter society at Howard University. The desire of the founding members was to extend its goals beyond the purely social, to ideals of high scholarship and cultural attainment. Members of Chi chapter paused, as did some 250 chapters throughout the United States and Haiti, to pay tribute to those 22 young women whose* enthusiasm and wise deliberations made it possible for thousands of college women to realize that “Intelligence Is the Torch of Wisdom.” Miss Letty Wickliffe. a national officer, gave a brief history and some accomplishments of Delta Sigma Theta, and Mrs. Frederick Parker, as a charter member of Chi chapter, made remarks. Music was furnished by the Deltones under the direction of Mrs. Coleman C. Moore. Mrs. Dolores C. Wilson was chairman of the Founder’s Day committee, and Mrs. Merritt L. Pace is president of Chi chapter.

Ora-Jel Ends Teething Pains No baby in his or her right mind would dream of getting severe teething pains at a convenient hour. They must occur between midnight and 6 in the morning, just to keep parents up all night. Seriously, teething is no joking matter for baby or parents, but fortunately in our modern scheme of things there is a safe and happy solution for all concerned. It is a product called Ora-Jel. When Ora-Jel is applied to baby's gums, it stops teething pains in just 20 seconds. Ora-Jel is so safe, it’s commended by Parent’s magazine and recommended by many pediatricians. Baby won't mind it either, because it's perfectly tasteless and effective for so long a time, mothers can probably get in their full eight hours sleep between applications. Ora-Jel comes in a convenient tube and should be “standard ! equipment’’ in every medicine ! cabinet and first aid kit because, • in addition to giving complete relief from teething pains, it works equally well for toothaches.
