New Cells Formed
In accomplishing this purpose, the node becomes enlarged, and may easily be felt. The enlargement is secondary to the inflammation, which means that the lood supply increases, the cells that make up the gland enlarge, and new cells enter the node to assist in destroying the infection. An infected finger often causes enlargement of the lymph nodes at the elbow and in the armpit. The tonsils are simply specialized lymph nodes, and when infected, they enlarge in the same manner. When the infection overwhelms the tonsils, the material is carried by the lymph vessels to the nu- | merous lymph nodes in the neck, and they in turn become enlarged. In association with tonsillitis, the lymph nodes below and behind

If the primary infection becomes chronic, the lymph nodes may remain enlarged until the infection is eliminated. Rarely, a lymph node succumbs to infection. When this capitula- | tion takes place, the mass becomes | larger and more painful, the overlying skin red and glazed, and finally the center of the node is broken down into pus. Ultimately, the skin breaks, and the pus is discharged.
Use Warm Compress
Simple, enlarged lymph nodes should not be massaged, and nothing should be rubbed into them. Such manipulations may break down the defensive structure and allow the infection to pass on toward the blood stream. If they are tender, a warm compress should be applied. If they persist beyond a few weeks, a physician should be consulted, and he will seek out and try to eliminate the source of the infec-
There are other reasons for enlarged lymph nodes, and when they are found without previous infection, their significance may be serious, and competent medical advice should be sought.

WASHINGTON, July 13 (U. PJ). —The war production board's office of civilian requirements believes stocks of civilian supplies will hit a “dangerously low point” by November, it was learned today. Christmas will be a lean one this vear, a high OCR official said, unless steps are taken now to replenish necessary items. He said that retail inventories already are depleted to, and in some instances are below, the danger point, The civilian requirements division is formulating a program for the manufacture of sutficient quantities
of civilian supplies to bring back stocks of needed items closer to normal. It may be ready to present to War Mobilization Director James F. Byrnes next month, Safety Pins Important The OCR spokes admitted that the proagram would run into strong military opposition, but added that the OCR is planning to defend its position—that civilians need cer-

T-Bone Steak
Gen. Sherman was all wrong, it seems . . . Highlight of today's war news for ‘housewives and restaurant patrons should be the revelation by 2d Lt. Robert C. Miller, 25, of 3620 N. Capitol ave, Indianapolis, that T-bone steaks are selling for 25 cents a pound (American money) “somewhere in Australia” where he is now stationed. Lt. Miller was among the first Americans to say “Hi!” to Hal O'Flaherty, a war correspondent for (The Indianapolis Times-Chicago [Daily News foreign service, when |O'Flaherty disembarked in a com{bat area “somewhere in Australia” July 4.

“Despite wet ground, the Australians and Americans started a softball game, which was a complete mystery to the visiting Aussies,” O'Flaherty wrote in a radio dispatch. “The Americans won.” “That's just like Bob,” commented Lt.

MARITIME UNION ASKS AGE PENSION
NEW YORK, July 13 (U. P.).— Extension of old-age pensions to seamen and a 40-hour week aboard ship were demanded by the national maritime union in a post-war platform adopted at the closing session of its fourth biennial convention yesterday. The union also seeks pensions for seamen disabled in the war, unemployment insurance and a guaranteed annual income in the post-war plan, which calls for a strong merchant marine and the stabilization of world trade through equalization of working conditions, wages and hours of seamen of all nations.

Get Busy With
That Trowel
To Avoid Slump in Garden
WASHINGTON, July 13 (U. P). —The agriculture department is urging victory gardeners to get busy with that trowel and hose if they don't want a midsummer slump in their vegetable crop. The department reported today that drought and uncontrolled weed sprouting already are causing some gardens to droop. Such neglect, it said, is a waste of seed and fertilizer, extremely valuable commodities, It advised gardeners to give their crops a thorough soaking once a week during the dry spell. This,
it said, “can mean the difference between success and failure.” The report said some lazy gare deners think they are saving work by letting weeds grow in beds that already have yielded a crop. But, it said, in the long run this makes more work because weeds litter the garden with seeds and soak up moisture needed by other crops. It said weeds should not be ale lowed to develop more than two inches top growth and advised troweling down to the roots as the most effective way of getting rid of them,

Mr. Brown is making a coast-toe coast tour, he said, through 38 states ‘to find out what the Amer ican people are thinking and talke ing about—what's in their hearts and minds.” “I have confidence in the thoughts and opinions of the Amere ican people,” he continued. ‘“‘Amere ica is perhaps the outstanding fige ure in the post-war picture. I am interested in ' learning what the American people are thinking and doing about the war, because what America does will not only deter mine the outcome of this war but also the chances of the world to secure a really lasting peace.” Recently at Washington, Presie dent Roosevelt recommended that the newspaper correspondents thera “get out and find out what this country is doing,” said Mr. Brown. “I anticipated that remark of his about a month, and I have been touring the country with the obe
