Answer: Never. If she is reason ably sure the basis of his leaving her was a misunderstanding, she may try to clear this up, though evlen here she should be careful not to appear to be putting any kind of “pressure” on him. But if the man seems at all reluctant or is “not sure how he feels about her,” all that she can do is wait until he makes up his mind, or try to “forget” him. Her attempting to persuade him to come back against his will will either make him angry or give him the feeling that he is acting from a sense of duty rather than because he wants to, and no man can love q woman on that basis. Are skin ailments psychosomatic? Answer: \lost of them have at least an important psychic (mental) factor says Dr. D. E. H. Cleveland of Vancouver, B.C. The emotional dis turbance is not the sole cause of the ailment, but provides the fertile soil on which skin trouble may grow. The physician should study his patient’s emotional life and explain to him KEEPING HEALTHY A product of McUSSOIf A ROBBINS N OW THAT 20 full been added to the life span dur ing the past 50 years there is, as stated often before, a very large number of men and women past 50 years of age. The lengthening of the life span means that these eld erly folk need attention not only for the ailments common to the young and middle-aged, but for the ail ments that come on with old age. It can thus be seen that the geria trician must know diseases and symptoms common to all ages. One of the important factors in preserving the health and prevent ing ailments in the elderly is nu trition and food. Generally speaking, the dietary of the geriatric patient should ful fill the following requirements: Food intake must maintain normal weight with 1 gm. protein (meat, fish, eggs) daily for every two pounds of weight. There should be sufficient vegeta bles and dairy products to yield the necessary vitamins and minerals, qnd then enough carbohydrates By Dr. James W. Barton years have (bread, sugar, potatoes, cereals) to round out a meal. Fats should be reduced greatly in amount. One of the helpful forms of treat ment is gland extracts which are being used with excellent results. Just as women have change of life, so also do men, and the gland ex tracts ease men and women from middle-age into old age without the terrible shock and other symptoms at this period of life. It is the grad ual wasting away of the sex glands that cause symptoms during change of life. Preventive care, not treat ment of existing diseases of symp toms, is the aim of the geriatrician who, in most cases, has been and is a general practitioner. As we grow older, we all appear to need reassurance about our health. The elderly patient may be given ideas on how to improve eat ing habits, how to get extra sleep, and the need for exercise. People won’t buy preventive care unless it’s wrapped up in an appeal ing package.

THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY. S. C. that medicine alone cannot curt him, so that he will not attribute his recovery to it if he gets well Any medication that is used should be chosen only to relieve the symptoms, since it is psychotherapy that the patient really needs. Itching and scratching may be basically “rage reactions.” May silence be cruel? Answer: Yes. In certain situations refusing to speak to someone may hurt more than harsh words or blows. Being ignored in this way is the same as being “rejected,” which is the most painful of emotional experiences. Again, refusing to speak to a person leaves him with out any hint of what you are think ing, or planning to do, and if he is inclined to be imaginative, this un certainty will be worse than the most painful knowledge. There are times, particularly if you are angry, when it is wise to “stop and count ten (or 1,000) before you speak, but don’t use the “silent treatment” as a form of punishment, especially with a child. Healthful Treatment for the Elderly Aerial Crop-Control Is Booming Industry 25,000,000 Acres Were Treated in U.S. in '51 A midwest wheat tract was so overrun with weeds that the farmer was about to plow it under. He de cided, hoever, to try treating it with 2,4-D and hired an aerial crop-con trol specialist to apply the chemical at a cost of $2 an acre. The result: a yield of 20 bushels of grain per acre. Other instances: Aerial spraying of weed-killing chemicals enabled a southern cotton planter to cut hoe ing costs from $14 to $6.50 an acre while a California citrus grower im proved his lemon crop by spraying his orchards from the air. Agricultural aviation is a boom ing new industry that is enabling the farmer to substantially increase The above photograph shows aerial dusting of an orchard. This method of insect control is becoming more popular with farmers thronghont the country. crop acreage, I. J. Becnel, * agri cultural research director for the Freeport Sulphur Company, report*:. Becnel pointed out that more than 25,000,000 acres of U.S. crop, range and forest ’ land were treated last year with chemicals sprayed or dusted by airplane. Some 6,000 pilots are engaged in the aerial battle against insect pests, weeds and plant diseases. And they are doing the job faster, more effi ciently and in many instances at lower cost than ground distribution of insecticides, fungicides and herbi cides. Store Unused Tractors Under Shelter in Winter If you want to ruin your tractor in a hurry, just let it sit outdoors, exposed to the weather, this winter. Farm machinery specialists say no amount of tough use will wear out your tractor as fast as leaving it out in the rain and snow. Tractors are fairly expensive and may be hard to get. So, if you’re not going to use your machine this win ter, it will pay you well to find stor age space for it in some building. Clean the machine thoroughly, es pecially the motor, and then store it in a dry protected place. Block up the tractor to take the weight off the tires. Then drain the radiator, block, gas tank, fuel lines and carburetor. Put fresh oil in the crankcase and add a rust inhibitor. Most important of all, remove the spark plugs and pour one-fourth cut of light oil or kerosene in each cylinder. Then turn the crank a few times to work the oil around the rings and pistons, and replace plugs. Cover the exhaust pipe and crank case breather pipe with old rags to keep out dirt and moisture.

Farmers Are Advised To Store Fertilizer Farmers are still being advlseu to buy and store sufficient chemical fertilizer to meet their needs during the next 12 months. The supply is expected to be somewhat limited. Be sure it is stored in a dry place where there is little temperature variation, don’t pile it any higher than five or six bags, and never pile It on the ground or even a concrete floor—the ideal storage place Is an elevated wooden platform.

Some can read them, some can’t. You can put a thing down in black and white and still some people will not under stand, simply be cause they can’t read. If a person is illiterate it makes no difference how plainly a book is printed or how big the type is or how clear the author’s sentences.

Luke tells of a din ner party where he was a guest, and puts the spotlight on three per sons there: Jesus, the host Simon, and an un-named woman. The woman was not supposed to be there; she just wandered in off the street Not that she was a stranger, exactly; she was well enough known in Uie village so that the host knew what sort of woman she was, even if (being a respecta ble man) he did not know her name. Like all guests In those days, Jeans had taken off his sandals and xras reclining on the conch beside the dinner table. This woman stood behind him and wept Her tears feel en his bare feet and she wiped them dry with her long hair. Jesus at first paid no attention, but the host was scandalized. How could Jesus take it so calmly? How could he let such a woman touch him? The conversation that went on, as Luke reports it between Jesus and Simon, shows that the poor woman of the street understood Jesus’ heart, while the leading citizen, whose house it was, did not ‘under stand Jesus at all. One could read Jesus, the other found him a closed book. Why? • • • A Door Barred rpHE MAN could not read Jesus' mind and heart because, for one thing, his own mind was made up as to the kind of person Jesus ought to be. He supposed Jesus was the same sort of person as him self—proud. sensitive, careful of Lb social standing, unwilling to asso ciate with the “lower classes,” wanting to be respectable much more than he wanted to be helpful. 'in his mind he carried a ready made pattern of what a “Prophet” ought to be, and :o when one who was greater than all the prophets sat at his own dinner table, he could not see him for what he was. His eyes were blinded, he could not read Jesus, the door to understanding him was closed. He had never learned to read the kind of language which Jesus’ life wrote large. Then there was another reason why this man could not “see” Jesus. It was his own pride, Simon looked down on Jesus so much that he could not even treat mm with ordinary politeness. • • • A Door Open B UT the woman understood. She did not know all there was to know about Jesus. And still she un derstood the depth of his heart. The door of his heart opened to her—she could read the clear writing of his spirit. She under stood him because she was hum ble. She did not try to fit him into her pattern; In his presence she knew, as the host Simon did not, that his was the true pat tern of life and hers the false. She understood him too be cause of her love. And so in spite of the immense difference between them, there flowed the light of understanding, even before a word had been spoken. She could read the bright word FORGIVENESS which to Simon was only a blank. • * * And So Today T O this very day, some people can read Jesus while others cannot. And in between are uncounted peo ple who can read him only more or less dimly as thrbugh glasses that are not clean, or through the smoke of a city twilight. But it is still true that pride and prejudice not only keep us from reading the lives of those around us, they keep us from reading the mind of Jesus. 4 And it is still true that humility and love are the great teflehers; they show us how to read the lives of those around us every, day, and best of all they teach us how to read the word “Forgiveness” in the mind and heart of Jesus . . . which is the heart of God. , Styled House Dress For Larger Figures YiP re. vlslygJI TYERE is a nicely styled house ** dress for the slightly larger figure that’s so neat and attrac tive.
