When a small amount of solvent
is to be used the work can be done
Indoors safely enough. If the fluid
can burn, just be careful to use it
where there are no nearby sources
of ignition and don’t smoke or

However, when a large job is
to be done, such as cleaning an

Brahman Cattle May Vie
With Many Domestic Kine
Cattle imported from India may
some day compete with established
beef cattle breeds in the markets
of the midwest, according to many
livestock experts. One Nebraska
farmer, a hybrid corn pioneer, be
lieves Brahmans will be as popular
as domestic breeds in the next few
years.
Com belt farmers scattered thin
ly from Nebraska to Ohio are ex- ,
perimenting with Brahmans and
crosses of Brahmans on regular
beef herds.
Do Brahman beef calves weigh
80 to 100 pounds more by weaning
age and dress out two to four per
cent higher than the usual run of
cattle? Do they make economical
feedlot and pasture gains and en
dure heat and insects better than
other cattle? These are some of the
questions to which it is hoped an
swers will be found through the
studies and experiments being
conducted.

'Save' Marriage
By Lawrence Gould
Safety Precautions
Urged in Cleaning
Danger of Fire, Vapor
Inhalations Are Cited
Housewives in rural areas some
times find it inconvenient to send
clothes out to be dry cleaned and
therefore do the work themselves.
For this purpose, they may go to
•a nearby automobile service sta
tion and buy gasoline or to a hard
ware store or general store and
buy “cleaning fluid.”
Gasoline is intended to make
motors operate and should never
be employed as a solvent because
of its great flammability. There
are some specially refined petrole
um products available with clean
ing and degreasing properties
aomewhat like those of gasoline but
Will having a baby “save your marriage”?
Answer: Not if it needs “saving”
—that is, if you and your wife or
husband are really at odds with
each other. In that case, the added
responsibility and care will be
more likely to deepen the suspi
cion of each partner that the other
is not doing his or her share. The
time to adjust yourselves to one
another is before the baby comes,
not after. But if you both want a
baby for its own sake, planning
for it w-ill bring you closer togeth
er and sharing the thrills of watch
ing it develop will create a lasting
bond between you.
Should you try to “top” a
hard luck story?
Answer: No. There’s a more or
less unconscious urge to do this
which you’ll see especially in mar
ried people—as when John comes
home exhausted from a hard day
at the office, and Mary, instead of
listening to his tale of woe, breaks
in with a recital of her troubles
with the children, meant to prove
Can psychiatrists agree on
what’s wrong with you?
Answer: They can come at least
as near to it as other doctors, and
perhaps a little nearer. Two Royal
Air Force psychiatrists report that
a review of 541 cases showed
ninety per cent agreement on the
commonest diagnosis (“anxiety
state”) and concurrence in diag
nosing almost two-thirds of all
types of patients. The doctors
were less unanimous as to the
causes of their patient’s ailments,
with one group inclined to lay
more emphasis on “flying stress”
and another—probably the Freu
dians—on “predisposition to neu
rosis.

KEEPING HEALTHY
Cancer of Lung Detectable Early
By Dr. James W. Barton
W HAT MANY OF US FORGET
is that nearly all symptoms of
various ailments clear up of them
selves within a reasonable time. If
symptoms continue, with or with
out treatment, for an “unreason
able” time, then the cause of the
symptoms should be investigated.
I have in mind at this time tumor
or cancer of the lung, in which the
early symptoms may be only a
slight cough or perhaps a wheezy
sound resembling asthma to some
extent. It may be easily overlooked
because the early symptoms are so
mild.
When we think of cancer, we
usually think of cancer of the stom
ach, intestine, and brain, and the
breasts and uterus in women, yet
research workers report that can
cer of the lung accounts for about
8 per cent of all cancer cases.
In “The American Review of
Tuberculosis,” Dr. R. Adams states
that the three most valuable ap
proaches to early diagnosis of lung
cancer are: (1) education of the
public to consult a physician for
any cough lasting more than two
weeks; (2) education of the pro
fession to inquire for symptoms, to
fluorscope (X-ray) every new pa
tient, and to advise X-ray films
when necessary; (3) stopping the
practice of treating cough symp
toms and pleurisy without trying
to find the cause.
Unfortunately, the early symp
toms of cancer of the lung are so
“ordinary” that they are likely to
be disregarded by both patient and
physician — cough, pain in chest,
coughing up mucous, and slight
amount of blood and wheezing.
Later symptoms are shortness of
breath, collection of fluid in pleural
sac (lower part of sac in which
lungs lie), severe pain, hoarseness,
loss of weight and weakness.
The X-ray gives the most valu
able information regarding lung
cancer, and the next most valu
able is the use of the bronchoscope,
“which, if handled by a seasoned
expert will, in 90 per cent of cares,
give the proper diagnosis.”
Removal of the section of the
lung affected by cancer is at pres
ent the only hope of cure.
The pituitary gland stimulates
growth, affecting the whole body;
it stimulates production of milk,
stimulates the sex glands to pro
duce sex extracts and stimulates
the thyroid gland and the adrenal
glands.
• • •
In many mental cases treatment
consists in trying to build up the
patient physically.
The reason some persons can
stand for hours without developing
varicose veins and others develop
them sooner is because the latter
inherited weak veins.

The superintendent of a large
mental hospital was able to dis
charge a large number of his pa
tients by having physical defects
corrected by specialists.

Committee Chairman
T HE APOSTLES, being called on,
refused to straighten the tangle
themselves. Let the church elect a
committee, they said. First on the
list was a man named Stephen. He
turned out to be most famous for
being the first Christian martyr,
but when he fell unconscious be
neath that shower of stones, there
died no ordinary man.
To begin with, he filled the
bill as chairman of that Com
mittee on Grievances. Not
many men, then or now, could
fill all three qualifications the
Apostles required: reputation,
spirituality, and wisdom.
It takes a very tactful man to
settle a difficulty in which women
are concerned; it takes tact to
handle any committee; it takes
tact to manage an inter-racial sit
uation; it calls for wisdom to handle
funds.
• • •
Debater
S OME MEN THINK themselves
bigger than their jobs. Some
men really are bigger, and Stephen
was one of these. He spilled over,
so to speak; he had even more en
ergy and ability than the job called
for. We hear . of him debating
around the synagogue circuit par
ticularly in the synagogues which
were used by Jews from other
parts of the world.
We have no details of those
debates, but we know how they
always came out: Stephen got
the decision. We can guess,
from his great speech in the
hour of his death, what his gen
eral line must have been.
Many Christians in Jerusalem at
that time had little or no idea that
Christianity was actually a new re
ligion; even the name “Christian”
had not been thought of. They con
sidered it a form of the Jewish
religion.
• • •
Scholar
S TEPHEN’S SPEECH at his trial
(Acts 7) may sound dull to
some now, but it was not dull to
the audience. No man makes a
dull speech on the brink of death.
Further, it was that speech that
got him killed. His listeners may
not have liked it, but they certain
ly did not think it dull! The beauty
of the speech is that it reveals
Stephen’s keen insight into the re
ligious history of his people.
Speaking without notes, he
reviews the history of close to
2,000 years In a 10-minute
talk, and yfet brings out the
main points. Only a real schol
ar can do that, a man who is
both historian and prophet.
The most important peaks in
Israel’s history were -God’s
revelations to them; and
Stephen shows that these revel
ations had never been tied to a
house or a book.
No institutions and no place is
indispensable to God. The same
God who had wrought new things
In the past had now wrought a new
thing in Christ. And the religion of
thing in Christ.
Martyr
S TEPHEN’S AUDIENCE was not
convinced. Seeing murder in
their eyes, Stephen knew his time
was short. In a few stinging last
words he reminded them that mur
der was an old story in that Tem
ple. They had killed prophets, they
had killed Jesus the “Just One.”
And now—. Now they dragged
Stephen out and stoned him till he
died.
Well, you can stop a voice
but you cannot stop an idea.
Stephen was first to fall, bnt
not the last. To this very year
Christ haa his' martyrs, men
and women who will die rattier
than deny him.
You can silence a man but you
cannot silence truth. When the
world goes against her, the Church
should remember that now as tben,
“the blood of the martyrs is the
seed of the Church.”
Good Breakfasts Put Pep into Work
(See Recipes Below)
Teen-Agers* Breakfast
I N THE HUSTLE and bustle of
school work and social activities,
teen-agers are apt to short-change
themselves on the food they eat.
Their stomachs aren’t going emp
ty; but, considering between-meal
snacks of candy bars and soft
drinks, the kind of food they eat is
apt to be off the track as far as
good nutrition is concerned.
At this age, the phrase “You are
what you eat” is all-important, for
personality de
velopment, the
capacity for
work and play,
as well as
health, are de
pendent in con-
siderable
measure on
good nutrition.
Also, this is the time when boys
and girls are forming food habits
that will follow them through life.
Let’s consider the first meal of the
day—breakfast.
By studying teen-age habits in
this country, we have turned up the
interesting fact that two-thirds of
our teen-agers feel that everyone
should have a good solid breakfast.
But, in this same survey, it was
discovered that thirty per cent of
the boys and girls in this age group
were skimping on breakfast. What
causes the gap?
Consider the wide range of foods
offered in this basic breakfast of
fruit, cereal,
milk, bread and
butter. Canned,
dried, fresh or
frozen fruits
may be used at
the breakfast
meaL
Almost two
dozen varieties of cooked and
ready-to-eat cereals are available.
The beverage might be cocoa, milk,
or hot chocolate; the bread could
be in the form of sweet rolls, hot
muffins, biscuits, waffles, or pan
cakes.

r R APPETITE APPEAL, a hot
bread is a quick and easy treat
for breakfast. This recipe for up
side down oat muffins is doubly
good, too, for it supplies extra
nourishment in the rolled oats and
the apricots. You might vary the
fruit by substituting cooked peach
slices, pitted prunes or apple slices
for the apricots.

LYNN SAYS:
Introduce Breakfast Variety
With These Simple Tricks
Chopped, minced dried fruits,
such as a combination of apricots,
dates and prunes, make a eolerful
and tasty cereal topping. Or add
these fruits to the cereal during
cooking.
Brunch calls for something a little
bit out of the ordinary. Next time
you’re making hot biscuits for this
occasion, add chopped deviled ham
to the dough for a pleasant sur
prise.
