“Of hundreds of orders issued by General Sherman

during the Atlanta Campaign, none affected the citizens of Atlanta more intimately and painfully than Special Orders No. 67, which provided for their exile,” Franklin M. Garnett, author of “Atlanta and Environs,”

wrote.

It decreed [see No. 456 in this series], “The city of Atlanta being exclusively required for warlike purposes, will at once be vacated by all except the armies of the United States, and such civilians as may be retained.”

From mid-September into October 1864, Atlanta families struggled southward, seeking relatives who would take them in. Some Negro servants accompanied them, but mdst of the slaves took their chances to the North, within the lines of their liberators. Union forces and civilian authorities had not organized housing and feeding for them, and many of the Negro refugees were thrust into conditions worse than they had left. —CLARK KINNAIRD [[] Migration of suddenly free slaves away from Atlanta, under protection of Union soldiers.

IS THERE any danger to the eye when the eyelids do not close in Bell’s palsy? Bell’s palsy is a paralysis of the face due to injury or disease of the facial nerve. It is usually temporary. Most often the coordination of the facial muscles returns to normal when /", the nerve heals. Normally the eyelids operate with a very rapid reflex action to protect the eye from foreign bodies or other irritation. When a Dr. Coleman paralysis results from Bell’s palsy and the eyelids cannot close, the eye is exposed to harm from dirt and drafts. The thin transparent covering of the eye (conjunctiva) becomes less sensitive to particles of dust and dirt that may be deposited on it. Specially constructed eyeglasses that completely enclose the eye can offer protection without the need for wearing the usual eye patch. • * • What causes enlargement of the breast in men? The glandular tissue within the male breast is not unlike that of a female. Sometimes there is an enlargement of the male breast due to some glandular disturbance. In many instances enlargement of the breast accompanies tremendous overweight. Even after weight loss, the breast may sometimes remain enlarged. Plastic surgery may be safely and successfully performed on the breast, and can be particularly beneficial in relieving embarrassment about the condition. But first the exact cause of the enlargement must be determined.

What is meant by a hernia of the diaphragm? This condition is called hiatus hernia. The diaphragm is a flexible wall of muscle which contracts and relaxes as we breathe in and out. It separates the chest from the abdomen. The esophagus (tube which carries food from the mouth into the stomach) passes through a small opening in the diaphragm called the hiatus. Sometimes, especially in the elderly, this opening, or hiatus, becomes enlarged and troublesome. Medication and rigid diet are usually effective in relieving the discomfort of this condition. In some instances surgery is necessary and very successful. The symptoms of hiatus hernia may be confused with those of gall bladder disease and stomach ulcers. Accurate diagnosis can readily be made by barium X-ray studies of the esophagus and stomach. • * * What is meant by the “rice diet” for high blood pressure? For many years a diet com. posed mainly of rice was a popular treatment for high blood pressure. This diet was designed to reduce salt, cholesterol and weight. In the past ten years many excellent drugs have been developed which have been very successful in the treatment of high blood pressure. These drugs have brought such gratifying results that the rigid rice diet is now seldom depended on as the only cure for high blood pressure. While Dr. Coleman cannot undertake to ansiver individual letters, he will use readers 1 questions in his column whenever possible and when they are of general interest. Address your letters to Dr. Coleman in care of this newspaper.

. . . and there are no expensive burner replacements

SPY TRIAL—John William Butenko, 38, former defense plant electronics engineer, walks to the federal building in Newark, N. J., for a session of his trial on spy conspiracy charges. Reds again.

It’s faster and cleaner, too. No wonder more women are switching to Gas cooking. How about you?
