Through the Static

We'll state candidly, before we start this column, that we didn't do much listening last evening, what with everything happening and things like that. as the feller says. But We know what conditions were and we'll say right here that We didn't think so very much Of them. The lower waves were showered with a shrapnel-Hke static that made lstening-in painful. This condition gradually disappeared as the higher waves were struck, but New York stations were the only ones which came in with any great ambition, and even these faded. By the way, fading was popular with stations last evening.
 George Olsen and His Music en- tertained US with an hour of dance selections through WIZ. The station faded at times and at the most un- usual times, too. By that, We mean that all announcements came through loud and clear. while some parts Of the music disappeared en- tirely leaving q signing set Of tubes 10 wait for the return of the prodi- gal wave. The band was up to top form, We might say. What's The Use Of Talking?" new number from the current edition Of "The Garrick Gaieties," didn't impress us to any extent; in fact, We don't think is is much Of q number. The "Who' trio sang a. chorus but We would have been better satisfied If they had kept still. since they didn't do so well. A group Of other favorites were played and the trio redeemed itself 10 a large extent. "Bye-Bye- Rlackbird. Horses" "The Girl Friend" and several others were pre- sented, you may be sure,
 Norman Brokenshire announced that the orchestra is heard once week. on Tuesday evenings. Appar- ently they've cut out broadcastinS the orchestra on Friday night at 7 o'clock. That's too bad.
 
 Al VICES, New York, the Arrow head Inn orchestra offered one of the longest dance numbers We have ever heard. We certainly feel sorry TOT the fellow who was dancing with the nice, sociable girl,' who had little else to recommend. Dances like that always seem a year long. anyway. so it must have been ter ribIe for that fellow, whoever he was. The number was called a group of five popular selections, and there were no stops between them, The station came through fairly well.
 WEAF did better than usual. in that We could hear it some of the time. Fading affected this station also. Ben Bernie's orchestra played ITO a Wild Rose" amid q great deal of fading.
 We tried the low waves, but there wasn't any use. The static crashed through with nerve shattering con- sfstcncy and We gave up the ship

-THE World war vastly increased
l our knowledge on many subjects
which would not at first sight be
thought Of in connection with war.
In all the countries engaged in the
struggle, the rule was, especially In
the first years, not to receive for serv-
Ice any man who was below par as
far as strength and physical vigor
were concerned. So it Is safe to as
sumo that any man who had any de-
fects after his term Of service was
over, owed those defects, either d.
rectly or indirectly, to the conditions
of his service. E
The experience Of the examining
army surgeons showed clearly that
there were many ways in which
man in the army might be seriously
injured besides wounds and sickness.
Many a man, for instance, developed
that peculiar mental and nervous con-
dition popularity known as "shell
shock" without being ever actually
shocked by heavy artillery firing or
explosions. In the same way, either
sudden and occasional strain or pro-
longed strain, both physical and
mental, led to strains on the heart
which produced actual disease of that
organ. AS these severe strains led
to fatigue, in the millions of men In
the various armies the surgeons had
an unusual opportunity to observe the
effects Of fatigue on the heart.
Heart disease due to overstrain &C.
CURED in most cases, In men Of un-
usually fine physique and good health,
who had had little or no previous ILL
ness. But most of them had under
gone an unusual amount of physical
effort and strain. This fatigue evil
IDENTIFY exhausted them and reduced
their resistance, so that they were
susceptible to infection. This infec-
ton, no matter what part of the body
1t affected, seemed to be particularly
apt to settle in the heart AS these
s1en had all been examined carefully
before entering the service, and as
they showed no signs of heart dis
ease or of conditions In early child
hood which would cause any such dis
ease and as their infection and the re-
sulting heart disease was not caused
by any wound or illness they had dur
ing their army service the best au-
thorities in England have decided that
the heart disease was due solely to
the strain and the fatigue caused by
their army work.
So it has been pretty we'll proven,
what has never before been recog-
nized, that overworking and firing
the heart muscle will not only weaken
that organ but will cause actual in
flammation and disease of the heart
structure: And overwork in civil life
is just as bad on the heart as it is in
the army.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1926-07-16
EXERCISE IN CONSUMP-
TON

TN THE earlier stages of our pres
i ent-day knowledge and treatment
of consumption, 1t was customary for
many physicians to advise their con-
sumptive patients not only to lead an
outdoor life but to do a certain
amount of outdoor work, with the idea
that such work would increase the
strength Of the body and its resist
ance to the tubercular infection.
More knowledge and broader OBJ
servation show that this Is true only
in certain cases and that If the patient
Is. In an acute stage of consumption
absolute rest for certain period Is
far more beneficial to the patient.
Rest not only lowers the blood pres
sure and SO reduces the danger Of
hemorrhage, but 1t permits the body
to use all its strength in overcoming
the disease. So that the best au-
thorities today keep the patient as
any fever in the morning or evening
or any tendency to hemorrhage, even
slight. Exercise Is only permitted
after the fever has disappeared and
after the patient has begun to show
improvement by gain in weight and
strength.
When the patient is in such condi-
ton as to allow exercise, mild and
gentle exercise at first Is allowable,
gradually increasing as the patient be-
comes stronger. This exercise should
be carefully watched, always keeping
on the side of safety. Many a con-
sumptive who was improving and on
the way to health, dates his relapse to
an unwise activity. Everyone inter-
ested In baseball will recall the case
of Christy Mathewson, big Six" for
years the star pitcher Of the New
York Giants. Considered completely
recovered from the consumption which
attacked him after his return from
France, he felt so good that he went
back into the pitchers box soon after
his return from Saranac Lake and
pitched a full nine innings to show
that he could "come back" A re-
lapse followed and Big six was not
able to rally and died in a few months.
OF all forms of exercise for the
consumptive when he is strong
enough, walking is probably the best.
better than any kind of game, since
there is no competition and the exer-
else can be controlled or checked at
any time. Cheerful companionship
and some objective are great helps.
