Varicose veins are found most often
in the legs and thighs and lower parts
of the body. Any condition which
binders the free return of the blood
from the veins to the heart is apt to
cause permanent dilation of the

usually a mechanical one. Often
some unusual pressure on the veins
of the abdomen dams up the blood.
When varicose veins occur in the

Here in America hay" reversed this process.
From the time when Corvallis surrendered at York
town down to the present, the average American
has had one boast that he ready to defend
against an Corners and on all occasions.
It was: The United States of America is the
greatest finest country on the face OF the globe.
And now that this has been said many times
that every earth has heard it, wouldn't it
be a good thing bend energies to new re
nolve-to to it that this is no empty boast, but
plain fact that no can deny?
That idea has been back of American progress
from the first When the new government struG glcd
through its birth throcs nearly one hundred ana
fifty years ago this ideal shone before the hearts
of the men who attended it. When the great armies

In they succeeded.

cities vie to see which shall have the tallest sky

sea Of green and yellow corn and wheat.
But just what do We mean by the finest nation?
Doesn't it all down to this-that America
must become the place where the average man can
find more real happiness, more joy in his life and
work than any other country?
Now happiness and joy don't depend entirely on
money and steel buildings They come partly from

RESPONSIBLE

Now comes a campaign for nationwide censor
ship. to be applied at the source. 1t is urged that
al movies, before they can be released must be
passed on by federal board which will decid,
what we may and may see.
1T is held, not without reason, that many OF the
INNS now being shown have harmful effect on
young minds not because there is ANYTHING so
very wrong about them, but because thew give dis.
torted values clarifying crime and emphasizing
the sex element unduly
But is it right to ask the national government
to take hand? Doesn't the real responsibility lie
with the parents?
Any father or mother who is really careful will
see to it that immature child goes only to such
movies as will not harm him. 1t is going too far to
expect the government to do what the individual
parents ought to DO.
