DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

"tin" stands for a tenth ami
versary? I, being married ten
years this month, will appre-
cite it if you will publish in
your column as soon as posi-
BILE, just what sort of dishes,
food, sweets and cake should be
used. Would silver flatware be
appropriate. ANXIOUS.
Yes, tin is used to celebrate
the tenth wedding anniversary.
Some people, to carry out the
idea, use tin plates and kitchen
Silverware. Visit the kitchen
ware department in any hard
ware store and I am sure you
will see many little inexpensive
things in shining new tinWare
that would make your table at
tractive. AS to the refresh
ments, I would suggest sim
pie supper; say, sandwiches,
coffee, homemade cake and
ice cream. Congratulations on
the first ten.

The chief difference between

HEALTH AND
DIET
BY Logan Clendening-

THE OHIO 6-year-old boy
who has to shave every day, and
has a deep bass voice on &C
count of his pineal gland, is not
the only victim of ductless
glands by any means. There is
another boy in Illinois, II years
old, who weighs $50 pounds.
He is feet 1917 inches in
height and wears size 25AA
shoes.
He is more of a problem to
his parents than the Ohio
pineal boy. His shoes cost $50
pair. Everything he wears
must be made to- order. His
socks cost $3.50 a pair. And he
grows so fast that he has often
outgrown an article of wearing
apparel by the time it has been
completed.
His Glands Changed
The young Illinois giant has
a change in the pituitary gland,
probably an increase in it's nor
NAL secretion. One of the GER
tain functions of the ductless
glands is to control growth and
weight. And much of this con-
troll resides in the pituitary
gland alone. 1t is located in
the skull and hangs from the
base of the brain, fitting into a
little bony cleft in the skull just
behind the internal nose.
What causes this gland to in
crease or change its secretion
is not known. Sometimes in
cases of giantism there is a
tumor, or growth, in the glands
but this is not always true.
Surgical removal of the gland
is possible in some cases, the
surgeon going through the nose
tc gain access to the gland.
When no tumor is present
it is often said the condition is
Cue to a congenital anomaly.
It does not seem to be heredi-
tary. The young Illinois giant
we described has normaLsized
parents and brothers and sis
ters.
A Tough Spot
The advantage of being
standardize in size is we'll il
lustrated by the difficulties of
this lad. If he wants to drive
an automobile he will have to
have one especially constructed
for him because he can not get
his knees under the wheel of
any standard make of car
There is no week-ending with
friends in prospect for him be-
cause no one has a bed that
will fit him. A golf playing
pituitary giant in Texas has to
have all his clubs made espe-
cially for him; they are nearly
five feet long. These people
cannot go to the talkies or the
ater unless they stand up all
through the performance, and
if they do, the show stops and
everybody looks at them.
1t certainly is convenient to
be the right size.
