I LOUISA'S LETTER («£•)

Dear Louisa, I am a high school girl fifteen years old and am in the tenth grade. A boy had dated me a few times but I would like to see more of him. He is one grade ahead of me and is very nice. What do you think I should do to gain his attention? R.W.-S.C. Answer: If he has dated you I should think that you have already gained his attention. But to hold that attention you should be friendly, interested in what he is interested iri, such as sports, etc., and well groomed. And by the well groomed I mean clean and wholesome looking. Fingernails and hair should be attended to and skin fresh and natural looking — just a bit of eye makeup, etc. A young girl’s greatest attraction is the fresh,’wholesome look of youth and a natural manner.

tress or friend is a mistake for what is attractive in one person is very often irritating in all imitators. Louisa Dear Louisa, I have a husband who is very jealous of everyone I like. He wishes to have all of my attentions and sulks if I do things for other people. I think this is very selfish but I love my husband and hate to hurt his feelings. How can I make him change? Wife — Tenn. Answer: Your husband is evidently emotionally immature. People who are too possessive often lose the things they are striving so hard to hold. The person who truly loves another is not as demanding of her as he is eager to give of himself and his time in order to make his mate happy and satisfied.

By BEN L. SMITH Guest Feature Writer Suddenly it all came together. After nearly two years of planning and sweat, Ligonier’s Sesquicentennial celebration kicked off with a bang on Saturday, May 4, as this community of 3,000 in western Noble County began not only the official festivities of its 150th birthday, but honored the city’s founder, Isaac Cavin, as well. Cavin, a Ligonier, Pa., resident who moved to Indiana in 1835, named the Hoosier town he platted after his hometown. Saturday’s events began with a luncheon for city officials and invited guests, including some 25 Jewish men and women from the Fort Wayne area, including Joseph Levine, executive secretary of the Indiana Jewish Historical Society. In a speech following the meal, he retraced the coming of Jewish merchants and their families to Ligonier in the 1800 s. there were also descendents of early Jewish settlers at the luncheon. Following the meal, a large crowd gathered at the Ligonier city hall for a ribbon-cutting ceremony marking the opening of a historical museum on the

building’s second floor. Councilman Robert Friesner welcomed the guests before they took time to browse amid the many and varied exhibits of Ligonier’s past. “I would hope the Sesquicentennial (spirit) would continue on through this and future years,” said Ligonier Mayor Grover Patrick. In addition to Patrick, three other Ligonier mayors were present at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, two of them being from Ligonier’s sister city, Ligonier, Pa. “I’ve been visiting here every year for the last 10 years,” said former Ligonier, Pa., Mayor Chick Cicconi. Indiana’s former Ligonier Mayor, Dr. Floyd Warren, and present Ligonier, Pa., Mayor Cliff Naugle, rounded out the group of mayors.

Causes and cures for RDS in infants There are 9,000 premature infants killed a year in the United States by respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and chemists are working to find both the cause and the cure. According to Michael Engle, biochemist at the University of Wisconsin, affected infants have insufficient levels of surfactant, a substance resembling soap that makes the lung tissue sticky. Researchers are now trying to determine the chemical composition of surfactant with the one hope that they will be able to prepare a synthetic replacement that could be administered to premature babies. Also, affected infants have been found be deficient in certain fatty acids and vitamins A and E, compounds that are needed to make surfactant. Studies have shown that young women and those with diabetes or high blood sugar are more likely to deliver a baby with RDS. Physicians hope, with these facts, to be able to improve the chances of survival for babies with RDS. \
