Your Health
by DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN.

IF you are a normal person you perhaps realize
l. that there are all sorts of causes for headaches,
and you undoubtedly know many methods of treat
ment.
The majority of headaches are not extremely
troublesome. They come on suddenly, last a short
time, and go away. There are, however, some forms,
known as migraine. which hang on and which are
associated with such a sense of sickness that they
incapacitate you wholly for comfortable and happy
living.
to be associated perhaps with structural defects Of
the brain. For this reason it is difficult to promise
an absolute cure in any case.
Many Of these patients think the disturbance is
connected with digestion, and go to a specialist in
diseases Of the stomach, with the idea that he will
find the seat of the disturbance in some disorder Of
the stomach or ~intestineS.
OCCASIONALLY cases seem related to the eyes,
~ and the proper fitting of glasses brings some
relief.
In women, changes which take place periodically
may seem to be the basis Of the attacks. These wom-
en- frequently go to bed for a week because the COM
bination of conditions is too much for them.
Although it would seem that anything tending to
increase the irritability Of the brain will bring on an
attack.

quently are responsible. What the patient needs
under these circumstances is mental rather than
physical attention.
In some cases a special sensitivity to some food
seems to be responsible. In these cases, the victim
should stop eating these foods.

He was a combination lawyer,
politician and newspaper man. His
ownership of the Indianapolis
News was a secret for years, and
when the government brought to
light his interest in the paper,
through the required circulation
statements, it turned out to be
astonishing and in some cases as
founding to both News employees
and friends of Mr.. Fairbanks.
A son, Warren, runs the paper
at the present time.
Charles Warren Fairbanks was
a native of Ohio, but his career
was carved out in Indianapolis.

at Cleveland. In Cleveland he
studied law and was admitted to
the Ohio bar by the supreme
court of that state in 1874.
From there he came to Indian
apolis and engaged in the prac-
tice of law and politics, being suc-
cessful in both fields. He was a
delegate to all national conven-
tions of the G.. o. P. after 1896,
except in 1908 and 1916, when he
was a candidate.
Because he procured the In

A S it turned out, maybe they we're right. It's
N pretty hard to prove that anything has been
gained when a robin freezes to death on rem
Common. However. I imagine that he died with a
certain sense of elation. None Of the rest thought
he could get there. And he did. The break IN
weather turned out to be against him. He Just
guessed wrong in that one respect, and so 1 WOULDN'T
think of calling him a complete failure.
When the news gets back home to the robins who
didn't 90 I rather expect that they'll make him a
hero The elder statesmen will figure that since he is
dead his ideas can't longer be dangerous, and they
can not deny the lift and the swing OF his venture.
After all. he was the first robin. He looked for the
snrinr and it failed him. Now he belongs TO that
noble army of first robins.

ShOrtridge Pupils See
Exhibit of Modern Art
by WALTER ID, HICKMAN

HIVE cents a month on the part
l. of about two thousand stu
dents at Shortridge high school
brings the accomplishments of the
greatest artists within touching
distance of every one in the
school.
This 5-cents-a-month plan is not
compulsory, but the loyalty and
interest of many makes possible
the Fine Arts Association of
Shortridge.
If the 5 cents is not forth
coming, no questions are asked,
but the opportunity to witness
great art is denied nobody at the
school.
This week the walls of one of
the well-lighted corridors reflects
a magnificent exhibition of mod
ern art sent on tour by the mu-
scum Of modern art of New York
City.
The other morning when I made
a visit to the school I found many
boys and girls of the art classes,
sitting on the floor of the COR
ridor OIL standing along the walls
making sketches of the exhibit.
Others as they passed to and
from their classrooms paused to
examine, study, and discuss mod
ern art. To me this corridor sud-
denly became a gateway into the
land of art.
Here young men and women in
troduce themselves to the works
of Camille Corot, Honore Daum-
Ter, Edouard Manet, Claude
Monay, Edgar DegaS and August
Renoir.

represented in this circulating eX-
hibition of color reproductions of
modern painting.
Hour by hour as the Shortridge
students pass this exhibit they are
becoming acquainted with some of
the most interesting contributions
to modern art.
The work of the Fine Arts Com
mittee of Shortridge, headed by
Mrs. Carl Watson, a member of
the faculty, can not be overeSti-
mated.
Only a few of the pupils who see
this exhibit will ever see the orig

portunity to see at first hand what
modern art really is.

Stories of the Pioneers

THE dark, malignant wilderness which lies a few
l. miles inland from the shore is the most myster-
ious territory in the United States now. 1t is full
of game and fish but it also is crowded with snakes
and ~alligators, and the hunting type of man who en-
joys to draw beads on the deer and wildcat has
shown no stampeding eagerness to plunge in there
and shell them. 1t isn't safe.
One year, after the great hurricane which killed
more people around Lake Keechobee than the public
ever had imagined, I went into the glades to catch
a glimpse of this pioneer life on a frontier about
which the country knows almost nothing.
Some Of the pioneers told stories of how the
moccasins driven to the high ground Of the dixie
around the lake where the people were taking their
last refuge before the flood, disputed this haven
with the people in the dark and fanged them or
drove them back into the water.
But Florida people are sensitive and proud Of
their country. They are even touchy about the good
name of the c~otton-mouth noccasin because I got
a letter some time later claiming that the moccasin
was not a deadly snake.
Well, he might rip you some if you stepped right
on him and if he did that you might feel somewhat
sickish but the bite wouldn't kill unless you happen
to have the FLU" or some sickness of your own along
with it. He is just a real nice snake.
