In Memory

In loving memory of our wife, mother and grandmother, Edna Pearl Nelson, who passed away March 17, 1961. We are thinking of you today Although others may forget, As silent thoughts bring many a tear For the one we loved so dear. Please God, hold loving arms around her, Keep her in your loving care, To all who still have your mother, Cherish her with care, For you will never know the heartache til you Find she isn’t there. David Nelson and children

Social Event Honors Mrs. Utt, Mrs. Seller A pleasant social event was enjoyed Wednesday, March 15th, at the home of Professor and Mrs. Albert Reynolds. The occasion was the birthday of Mrs. Nettie Utt, Mrs. Reynolds’ mother, and of Mrs. Elmer Seller. The birthdays were just a few days apart and the anniversaries were celebrated by a luncheon given by Mrs. Reynolds, who is always a gracious hostess. The guests, with one exception, were members of the Federated Reading Club, of which Mrs. Utt and Mrs. Seller are active members. The guests of honor received charming and appropriate birthday gifts, including orchid corsages from Mrs. Grafton Longden, Jr. The luncheon was excellent food, daintily served. The table was centered by spring flowers, the napkins and birthday cake bearing a touch of green for St. Patrick. The program was given by Mrs. Helen Eiteljorge, a comprehensive review of John Griffin’s “Black Like Me.” This was especially interesting because the author had so recently appeared on a DePauw program. The club’s business meeting was followed by a social hour during which Mrs. Utt and Mrs. Seller were wished the usual “Many Happy Returns.” The guests were Miss Carrie Pierce, Mrs. Elmer Seller, Mrs. Nettie Utt, Mrs. Russell Thomas, Miss Ruth Latshaw, Mrs. O.

These Are Your Questions IS EMPHYSEMA a new dis- incapacitating complications,

formerly?

Emphysema is not a new disease. I have written many columns on this condition and am edways surprised by the large number of letters that are sent to me inquiring

abont it

This disease of the lungs is undoubtedly a product of modon civilization. In addition to 1 n factions, smog, pollution

Dr. Coleman and tobacco are

this serious condition. I am taking advantage of this question to set in motion a program which I consider to be vital to the health of our nation if emphysema is to be kept from taking a position as one of the greatest threats to

health.

For years a campaign has been in progress to uncover the hidden and early diabetic. These had to be flushed out in order that treatment and control could be started before complications set in. ’Die effect of this educational campaign has been remarkable. In a similar fashion, apparently normal, healthy young and middle-aged people have pre-emphysema. They may not yet have the symptoms but are heading for a life of respiratory trouble almost unknowingly. If these pre-emphysema people can be induced to stop smoking and avoid exposure to gases and irritants in factories, they may be given many additional years of good health. Physicians everywhere are Including in every complete general examination pulmonary function tests in order to recognize, early, any candidate for emphysema. We hear more about emphysema because we as physicians are concerned by the massive number of cases which, when untreated, develop serious and

The essence of preventive medicine lies in rinding the prediabetic, the pre-cardiac and the pre-emphysema patient. The attack on this great health menace in conjuction with drives to “keep up” vaccinations can pay limitless dividends in

How long after a leg Is amputated can a person learn to walk with an appliance? I am always impressed by the inner reserve of strength that people have when they come face-to-face with this kind of catastrophe. A patient and neighbor with great courage and stamina was able to walk and live a complete and happy social life within a few weeks after amputation. There are others who, because of age and discouragement, take many months before they are able to walk again with an artificial limb. The time depends entirely on the individual and the emotional support and training that he receives. A new technique is now being used after surgery. At the time of amputation the artificial limb is fitted almost immediately. This method is being used by surgeons all over the country with great success. This reduces the time necessary to again learn to walk without going through the difficult "crutch” period. It might be independently added that careful treatment of people with circulatory problems has markedly reduced the number of amputations performed each year.

In Memory

In loving memory ot our father, William Henry Swinford, who departed this life Mar. 31, 1929. Of our mother, Lydia, who left us Mar. 17, 1961, and our only brother, Lacy, who was called to the great beyond Jan. 22, 1919. Though their smiles are gone forever, And their hands we cannot touch. We will never lose sweet memories, Of the ones we loved so much. Not now but in the coming years It may be in a better land, We’ll read the meaning of our tears, And then up there we’ll understand. God knows the day he holds the key, And guides with unerring hand. Some time with tearless eye we’U see, And then up there we’ll understand. The years may wipe out many things, But this they wipe out never, The memory of those happy days, When we were all together. The five sisters, Ruth, Hazel, Edna, Stella and Josephine.

Nixon Snubbed MOSCOW UPI—Richard M. Nixon, snubbed by the Kremlin and with old sparring mate Nikita S. Khrushchev nowhere in sight, turned toward Siberia today and a look at the tense Sino-Soviet frontier. The former vice president flew to Moscow from Rome Thursday night and learned his request for meetings with Soviet leaders had been rejected. “Apparently a government without an opposition is not willing to recognize the opposition party in another country,” Nixon said.

to the EDITOR -

Dear Editor: Last Thursday evening, March 9, the Greencastle High School Music Department presented a concert in the Junior High School Auditorium. The only disappointing thing of the evening’s entertainment was the number of people attending. Certainly what the audience lacked in numbers they did not lack in appreciation. It takes considerable time and practice to put on a program of this type, as was in evidence by the numbers performed. First of all it takes enthusiasm on the part of the teacher or director, and he.,in turn has to transmit this to the students to get the type of performance which we were privileged to hear. I think the Greencastle High School Band, the High School Choir, Peter Hill, the director, and their student teachers can be justly proud of the excellent program they presented. I only hope we will be able to hear these fine young people in concert again soon, but the auditorium will be full and overflowing the next time they perform. An Interested Patron
