THE NEWBERRY SUN. NEWBERRY. S. C. ff MIRROR ^ ^ ^ Moke Marriage Of Your The Man's Idea MIND By Lawrence Gould IT CAN HAPPEN HERE Should a woman propose marriage? Answer: Only to a man who is too timid to take the initiative. As things are today, marriage is like ly to be the woman's idea rather than the man’s, but the less aware he is of this, the better. For not only dees anyone do anything more spontaneously if he thinks he ’thought of it first,” but a normal man is jealous of his traditional right to “do the asking.” Again, a man who can tell himself that he was “roped into” marriage has a plausible excuse for feeling that he need make no effort to adjust him self to it. 1 Can “permissiveness” be overdone? Does a real man “hate to up’ dress **«”? Answer: Not when there is a valid reason for it—such as that it will give his wife pleasure. There is nothing masculine in the adult sense about wanting to wear old, untidy clothing—it is simply an extension of a small boy’s dislike of having to wash before coming to the table. And this in turn implies an infantile Answer: Yes, warns Dr. Lucie Jessner in Child Development. With a child who is emotionally disturbed or suffering from psychosomatic illness, you must first “accept him as he is and not as he should be,” and let him feel that he can say or do anything he pleases without punishment or disapproval. But if carried beyond certain limits, this may lead to dangerous actions like setting the house on fire, and bring the child to the point where he be comes “afraid of his own over whelming impulses.” Let a child express his feelings in words, but know the limits of action.

Barton •N THESE DAYS when manpower » is so important to the country’s rellbeing, it may be well for us » consider what diseases are a ireat to it It is because of what be done to save our manpower nd also the lives of. many other len and women possessed of men- il and physical ability that I am uoting from a pamphlet issued by merican Heart Association, 1775 •roadway, New York 19. It is heart nd blood vessel disease that is re- ponsible for the loss from industry f so much manpower. “T h e cardiovascular dis eases (heart and blood vessels) are a major threat to industry’s investment in trained manpow er. Skills and experience at this time are more important than raw materials. They are all too frequently wiped out by heart and blood vessel diseases.” At least 10,000,000 persons have une form of heart and blood ves- sl disease in the United States to- ay and the figures would be pro- ortionately the same for Canada. In 1948. diseases of heart and blood vessels were responsible for 44 per cent (nearly half) of all the deaths in the United States. They were responsible for one out of two deaths over the age of 45. These diseases killed five times more peo ple than accidents, 11 times more than pneumonia and influenza, 14 times more than tuberculosis, 16 times more than diabetes. While most of us, as we think of the loss to industry from heart and blood vessel diseases, have in mind skilled and unskilled labor, we must remember that heart <ji seas e is the major cause of disability and death among the executives in industry, the men and women who do the planning and the worrying in otir various industries. In order to learn the underlying causes of heart* and blood vessel disease, tthe American Heart Asso ciation conducts its Heart Campaign each year and spends 25 per cent of its collected funds in research work. “Skilled investigators, among them biologists, chemists, pathol ogists, physicians and statisticians, have been given funds.” HEALTH NOTES t is interesting to see diet treat- <nt being used again in the treat- art of tuberculosis. • • • leart disease is serious, but the irt can stand a great amount of mage without death occurring. * • • • )ne of the greatest dangers in ut disease is the damage done the entire body by fear. Pain in angina pectoris may oc cur even when patient is lying down. • mm There is a relation between ap parent feeble mindedness and im paired hearing. • • • Both hearing and vision should be tested before judgement is made of a child’s intelligence. Apathy Toward Possible Atomic Bomb Attack Noted by Officials (The first of two articles.) During the last few days in Wash- ington, D. C., officials have been considering the most important problem in the United States—t^e lives of its citizens. “An extreme apathy—the *it can’t happen here* attitude—has been the reaction of the public toward the many bulletins we have sent out concerning the possibility of atomic attack on this country,” said Dr. Richard Gerstell, consultant to the federal office of civilian defense, and author of the book, “How to Survive an Atom Bomb.” A cross-country check on home- owners revealed that initial steps toward individual household safety insistence that people shall like you “just as you are.” Being afraid other men will think you are “put ting on the dog” is hardly less child ish since it reflects a fear of being “different” which an adult should have outgrown. By INEZ GEBHARD N ancy olson is going to look just as glamorous in her WAC uniforms, in Warners’ “Force of Arms”, as she does in her own clothes, which is saying a good • m I mm NANCY OLSON deal, because young Nancy is a pretty glamorous person. Army officials have assigned a WAC officer to the picture, to supervise her outfits. She is co-starring with William Holden and Frank Love- joy in this picture, ner last before she retires to await the stork’s arrival. There’s a beautiful home all ready for the new baby—the farm formerly owned by Burgess Meredith and Paulette 1 Goddard, not too far from New York, which Nancy’s husband, Alan Lemer, the “Brigadoon” composer, bought last year. Screen star Ruth Hussey has turned down a five-year TV deal offered by NBC, at $1250 per half hour film—said it would interfere with her movie career. Also, she is likely to appear in one of next season’s stage hits. Demonstrating' interior fire proof housekeeping.

This “lack of interest” on the part of the citizens forced Millard Caldwell, Washing ton’s administrator of the civilian defense program, to call a nation wide emergency conference on the problem of indifference to the need of precaution. • • • HOME-OWNERS are urged to im mediately enforce the following basic steps: From hardware or notions coun ters, get hold-down brackets for Venetian blinds. These tiny brack ets will hold the blind firmly t° ^ ie window sill; the blind will serve as the best window covering not only in stopping flying debris, but in de flecting a great part of the initial, scorching heat flash. Rid your yard, your basement, your house and attic, of any com bustible piles of trash, such as old papers or a basement congestion of furniture storage; it’s especially important to clear your basement because it will be your best shelter area in the event of attack. Decide exactly which area of your home will be the most effective shelter against a bombing attack. Make it a permanent decision so that you and your family will auto matically gather there if a panic should start.

Wilkinson Mlnuti Fiction s^rO ONE caught on to my secret * v but Sheila. Sheila was smart. Pretty, too. She had smoky gray eyes and titian hair and pure white skin. i We met at a winter sports house- party up in New Hampshire, and the next Monday, back in Boston, I toe* her to lunch. “I’ve some friends'I’d like to have you meet,” I said. “They have an apart ment, out on the Fenway. Suppose we run out tonight?” She looked at me with a sudden flash of her smoky eyes, and I said quickly: “Sounds like a stuffy evening, I suppose. It won’t be. Bette and Gill are O.K. You’ll like them.” Td love to go,” she said. And so that night we called on Bette and GilL On the way home Sheila said she’d l.ad a* grand time, which is why I’ve always marveled at Bette and Gill, because we’d done prac tically nothing. “I like them,” Sheila said. “They’re married and they seem happy.** “They are happy. They’ve been married six years and they’re happier than when they started. I’ve known ’em both since high school.” Well, during the six months that followed I saw a lot r t Sheila, and together we saw a lot of Gill and Bette. One night I went up there without her, and you’d think those two had been waiting for an oppor tunity to get me alone. ‘Say, listen,” Gill said, "you’re — Dismissal of Mac Showed Disregard of Politics By Wright A. Patterson W HAT EVER. IF ANY, may be . his deficiencies in other lines, the American people have credited President Truman with a complete knowledge of partisan politics, of how to make or lose votes for his party and its candidates, whoever such candidates may be, and of the need of votes if his party is to be successful. Such being the case, it is hard to conceive of the promptings of Harry S. Truman, the partisan politician, taking the action Harry S. Truman, the President, did in the case of Gen. Mac- Arthur. To arbitrarily dismiss from the nation’s service a man in whom the people b?d full con fidence, a man of demonstrated ability, at the instigation of such as Dean Acheson, secre tary of state, and somo others, who do not have the confidence of any considerable number of American voters, a condition of which the President must be aware, is a simply incredible action, and one that will be paid for in a loss of votes, now and for years to come. It will come nearer wrecking the Dem ocratic party than anything that has happened since the days of President Johnson. The President tells us we are facing a grave emergency, a crisis in our relations with Communist Russia. We may be called upon any day to meet the Red army hordes in both Europe and the far east. In the face of such conditions Har ry S. Truman, the president, dis misses from the nation’s service one of the great military leaders of the century, a man whose ability and knowledge of far eastern con ditions we will so terribly need. To the American people it would be unthinkable to dismiss Gen. Mac- Arthur for any reason, but to do so at the instigation of Dean Ache- son will politically condemn Harry S. Truman and his party. It may mean the party’s defeat at the hands of the voters for years to come. It was Acheson’s bad guesses, if they were nothing worse than bad guesses, that are responsible for the conditions we face in the far east, and have been responsible for our more than 60,000 casualties in Korea. It is not alone we In Ameri ca who mast suffer from that stubborn will that insists that whatever he says or whatever he does must be right. The peo ple of Japan, of Korea and oth ers throughout the Pacific mast also suffer a severe loss. For Stalin, it is like winning the final battle. The cry of “wolf! wolf!” has been heard frequently from the White House, or from those backing the President’s policies, and his de mands for more taxes, for more appropriations, for more power, but has been followed within jl few hours by the assurance that we are nearer peace with Russia than at any time since the beginning of the cold war. So often has that wolf cry been repeated, with its assuring follow-up that It has lost all of its effect, both with congress and the people of the nation. Whether the wolf cry comes from the President or from Speaker Ray burn, congress accepts it as but another political-must call, and goes serenely on its accustomed way without undue excitement, and the people have become so apathetic over the war possibility that they no longer take seriously those frightening wolf cries, or the as surance of advancing peace. The wolf cry has outlived its usefulness as a means of advancing the Pres ident’s policies and his demands for legislation. It has been used too often. * The senate crime committee did an excellent job until it came to reporting its findings to the people. That report, as carried In the Sat urday Evening Post of April 7, carried one small line at the bot tom of its first page. It said: “Copy right, 1951, by Estes Kefauver, all rights reserved.” Senator Kefauver evidently expects his report to be issued as a book, and did not want to detract from his royalties by too wide a reading from which he would receive no revenue. * In these days of billions that cut of a few hundred million from a presidential appropriation request may not seem much, but it was a saving and represented results, not merely talk. Let us have more of the same. * There are thousands of people in Washington, carried on government payrolls with the backing of the Democratic national committee, with nothing to occupy their time, and more of the same are being added each day.

I mean, here we ve been married six years and you’re not even in love.” “How would you know about that?” I grinned at him. “I knew it!” Bette cried delight edly. “It’s Sheila! He’s in love with Sheila! Oh, Jim, we think that’s grand! She’ll make^you a wonder ful wife!” "Sheila’s all right. Good company. So are the dozen other girls I’ve been bringing up here.” Gill shrugged. “O.K., Jim. We’ve been hoping you’d fall for one of them, because you’re missing some thing—not being married.” T WO nights after that I saw Shejla. We went to an in-town hotel to dinner and dance. Around 10 o’clock I suggested we leave and run out to Gill’s and Bette’s. But Sheila shook her head, and I looked at her in some surprise. “They’re nice people,” she said. *T like them, but I’m a little tired of being an excuse.” “Excuse?” “I’ve heard about the other girls. They were all excuses, but I’ll bet they didn’t know it.” “Now, wait a minute,” I said. “What is this?" “Call it a game, if you like.” She looked at me steadily. “Jim, you’d better give up. Gill happens to love his wife and I have an idea he’ll keep on loving her.” ‘T flushed angrily. “Of course he will. Who says he won’t?” “Nobody. But you hope he won’t.” “I hope what? What the devil are you talking about?” She sighed, “Oh, Jim, stop pretending. You’re in love with Bette. You’ve been in love with tier for so many years you’ve lost count. Yon kept bringing pretty girls np there, hoping he’d fall for one of them, hop ing she’d break np their match. Then you’d have a chance with Bette. “Stop!” I yelled. “You’re crazy!” “No I’m not. I’m quite sane. What kills me is that neither Gill nor Bette have caught on.” Sha stopped and bit her lip. “Well, it's none of my affair, but I’ll tell you this, Jim: Those two are about the only inspiring people I’ve ever known. And I’m all for letting them stay that way. From now on, count me out.” I shrugged. "O.K. You’re out. There are two dozen others out with you. But you’re the first who’s guessed the reason.” I sighed: “I guess I’d better quit. Gill and Bette think if I married you I’d be getting a prize. I’m beginning to agree with them. Will you marry me?” “No,” said Sheila. Which is what a chap gets for having a secret like mine.
