Notre Dame VS.. All Stars

The so-called Notre Dame football
team of Waterville were unable to
score against the All Stars of Show
hogan. The visitors were COM
hination of Colby, Coburn and Wa
terville High and were good but did
hot have the necessary punch to
score against the home team. Show
hogan, with practically all former
high school men, did not have much
trouble in going through their OPP
ponent's line and on the defensive,
held them to one first down. Frog"
Dionne, the former All Maine school
boy back, and Ted" Beauford, his
old signal man, tried to pull some of
their former trick plays but the mud
was too thick for speed. Although
There was no scoring, enough good
plays We're on tap to keep the large
crowd satisfied.

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

THERE are fads and fashions in
4 disease, as there are in skirts. To
day, blood pressure is "all the rage"
To hear it discussed, you would think
1t was newly discovered disease.
1t isn't new and it isn't disease.
there is no blood pressure there Is no
life. 1t isn't a disease. A certain
amount of blood pressure is necessary
for life.
To talk about having mo blood
pressure" is to adopt the professional
slang of the ward nurse, who says that
the patient has mo temperature" She
doesn't mean that. If any one of us
had mo temperature" we'd be too
dead to get into hospital. She
means the patient has normal tenn
perature.
So when a doctor tells you that you
have mo blood pressure" he doesn't
mean that. He means that your blood
pressure is normal.
What is normal blood pressure? All,
that's the question. It's only a few
years, comparatively, since we had any
instruments for measuring and record
ing blood pressure. Doctors, for ages,
have known that, at some times and In
some persons, the heartbeat was
stronger and more accentuated than at
other times and in other people. Per-
sons with strong full pulse were said
to be "plethoric" and the heartbeat
of what we now call high blood pres
sure was said to be full or bounding"
All the doctor had to judge by was his
finger tips but he could make about us
good an estimate as the present-day
laboratory man can with his mercury
manOmeter.
Blood pressure is the pressure inside
the arteries Just as the water pres
sure in a fire hose depends on the
strength of the engine and the size of
the hose, SO the blood pressure depends
on the force of the heart and the size
of the arteries. These factors differ
in different individuals. There Is no
absolutely normal figure. 1t varies
with age, physical condition, work.
nerve tension and dozen other fac
tors.
If you have high-strung feeling,
restlessness, nervousness and inability
to sleep, frequent headaches and nose
bleeds, perhaps dizziness and flushing
of the face, have your doctor take
your blood pressure in the same way
he'd take your temperature. If your
heart is working too hard. slow down.
Find out what's wrong in your way of
living and correct it. You don't want
to run around with a high blood pres
sure any more than you do with high
temperature. But in either case there's
cause. Find 1t and remove 1t

Governor Richie will not issue a
call for the mobilization of civilians
in Maryland in connection with the
program of President Coolidge for a
second National Defense Day test

Whether there will be mobiliza-

Milton A. Reckord and Maj.-Gen.
Samuel D. Sturgis, commander of the
Third Corps Area.
To what extent. If any, the indi-
vidual States are to participate in
the proposed Defense Day test Presi-
dent Coolidge has left optional with
their respective Governors.
Governor Richie said that he was
opposed to the selection of the 4th
Of July as the date for the test, al
though he agreed with the President
in his opposition to the selection Of
Armistice Day. November IL, for the
purpose.
Many of our civilians and many
of the members of the National
Guard, too, will want to observe the
4th of July as holiday" the Gov
ernor said. "In fact. / presume that
many of them already have made
preliminary plans for outings on that
day which will take them away from
home over the weekend, as the 4th
of July will fall on Saturday.
II do. not feel like asking either
citizens or National Guardsmen to
curtail their recreation for the test.

ernor Richie has not yet received
the telegram. A copy was given Gen
eral Reckord, who went to Washing
ton to inquire into the status of the

General Reckord, on his return,
said that If the Governor should ask
his advice in the matter of mobiliza-

So far as a military mobilization is
concerned, he said that he had no
