Local bartenders do well in MS fundraising contest

By MITCHELL STINSON Staff Writer

Don’t expect an argument from D.J. Welker if you tell her she’s an “ugly” bartender. In fact, she's quite proud of the second-place trophy she won in the recent Indiana Genuine Ugliest Bartender Contest. “I’m the second proudest ugliest bartender in the state of Indiana,” Welker beamed. Actually, the contest has nothing to do with a person’s appearance. It’s a fundraising event for Multiple Sclerosis, held throughout the month of May and the acronym UGLY stands for Unbelievably Generous Lovable You. Hoosier bartenders from more than 800 bars across the state received one vote for every 25 cents they raised. Welker hit the MS campaign trail at Barbee Landing, a beer and wine establishment that she co-owns along with her husband, Dave. The seating capacity may have been small, but the spirit of giving was very big at the North Webster bar as D.J. received $6,147 worth of votes. “I’m proud of the North Webster community because they gave so much from so few,” she said. Kosciusko County, in general, showed an abundance of generosity for the contest. About SIOO,OOO was raised statewide through the event and Kosciusko County was responsible for more than 10 percent of that total.

Nasal spray relieves symptoms

Syntex Corporation recently launched Synarel, a nasal spray approved for relieving the symptoms of endometriosis. The spray initially stimulates the pituitary to release hormones that stimulate the ovary to produce estrogen, progesterone and an egg each month. With repeated use,, the pituitary is desensitized and no longer produces the hormones, thereby quieting the ovary and eliminating the production of estrogen. The patient then experiences a temporary nearmenopausal state, relieving the

painful symptoms that accompany endometriosis, which usually flare up during menstruation. — Hook’s Health Tip Bulletin Locker pencil holder Now that my children are in junior high school, they have discovered that using an empty plastic flashlight case (with an attached magnet) to hold pencils and pens works beautifully. They stick the magnetic flashlight cases on the inside of the door of their lockers. No more hunting for a pencil or pen when they need them at school.
