They are taken from an article in the May Reader's Digest, ‘How to Stop Worrying” by the noted doctor-writer A. J. Cronin. Read the article for yourself as the au thor gives his prescription for dealing with “Private Enemy No. 1.” Dr. Cronin says that the secret enemy of worry is responsible for more casualties anJ greater suffering than almost any ether scourge. He says, “As medical men know, worry can actually induce organic disease.” Pointing to the universality of worry, Dr. Cronin offers this estimate of what most people worry about; "Things that never happen; 40 per cent. Things over and past that can’t be changed by all the worry in the world, 30 per cent. Need less health worries 12 per cent. Petty miscellan eous worries, 10 per cent Real legitimate worries, 8 per cent.” . Get out your pencil now and make your worry list. After you have made the list, then classify your worries. Use Dr. Cronin’s yardstick. You (might also deal with them in the terms of the old Dr. Spaugh prayer ascribed to St. Francis of Assisi, “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change those thngs that I can, and the wisdom to know the dffer- ence.” Dr. Cronin says that self-pity is the root of many of our worries. He tells how, when he was a practicing physician in London, one of his patients a young married woman was stricken with infantile paralysis. “She was sent to a good hospital where it soon became •apparent that she was responding to treatment there and would eventually recover. Some weeks later I received a visit from her husband. In a state of tenseness and nervous-upset, he complained of sleeplessness and inabilty to concentrate. After a checkup I found nothing whatever the matter with him. But when I suggested that he get back to his job, he turned on me furiously: ’My wife is seriously ill. Do you expect me to go on as though nothing had hap pened? Haven’t you any feelings for me?’ The basic cause of his worry was self-pity, masquerading as concern for his wife” Dr. Cronin comes to a most arresting conclusion, “Worry, in the final analysis, is a form of atheism, a denial of the human need o€ God. It is like saying, ‘I shall never get the better of this, for there is no God to help me.’ ” Jesus Christ repeatedly warned His hearers and warns us con cerning worry. He said, “Take therefore no (anxious) thought for the morrow.” Read Dr. Cronin’s article if you can. If you are a professing Chris tian it will make vou re-examine the whole structure of your faith. The good doctor offers an excellent prescription for treating "Private Enemy No 1”—Worry. GET ALL PRESENT AND FUTURE CHANNELS COMING TO THIS AREA Distributed By: Moore A Stewart, Inc., 121 E.

Bath Towels Gain In Fashion Appeal Not long ago bath towels were just plain, ordinary items made to serve a practical need. Not so any longer! Today towels have entered the realm of home fashions and now play a color ful part in the bathroom decorat ing scheme. Towels get high-style treat ment these days. Inspiration for their designs, comes from many sources, just as for fashion fab rics. One new towel recently put on the market has a design in spired by the delicate grid of a tennis racket. Called “racquet club,” this design comes in deli cate colors of azalea, lilac, and aqua and in tweedy shades of nutmeg and charcoal. One home decorating expert even suggests the use of colorful towels for bathroom curtains. Just sew rings to one hem of a pair of matching towels, she says, and hang them on an ordinary rod. The towels drape gracefully without pleating and they absorb steam moisture without growing limp. The towel curtains can be washed frequently and require no ironing. ♦ • “DIE FOR ALL YOU ARE WORTH” Hugh L Eichelberger NEW YORK LIFE MAN 33 Yean Experience PROFESSIONAL INSURANCE INFORMATION FURNISHED FREE Member The National Association of Lift Underwriters All The Little Things Needed For The Office CHRONICLE PUB.

Research Bringing Improved Cottons, Survey Reveals Cotton produced in the United States today is strikingly su perior to that grown only a dec ade ago in two important qual ities, fiber length and fiber strength. A recent survey by the U. S. Department of Agriculture reveals this gain in cotton fiber length and strength. The improved fibers make stronger, more easily processed yarns and fabrics. The study compares commer cial cottons most widely grown in 1939-41 with those of 1949-51. It reveals that new cotton va rieties with increased fiber length and fiber strength are be ing grown across the Cotton Belt. The average length of fibers of nearly 12 million bales pro duced in 1939-41 was .98 inch. Ten years later the average fiber length of nearly 14 million bales was 1.04 inches. The average indef of fiber strength came up from 6.78 in 1939-41 to 7.23 in the 1949-51 pe riod. Plant scientists see the ten- year gains as only the beginning of cotton fiber improvements which can be achieved through research. *- Mothers Honor tth Grade Close Members of the 8th grade and invited guests were honored on last Tuesday evening with a party at Joanna club.
