QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 PAmpcrcd Child

Does an S-year-old school boy require cod liver oil? He is of the wiry outdoor type, no fat on him. and we have very cold weather in the winter season. Several other mothers have asked me if never read Dr. Brady :: (Mrs c. s.) :.
 Answer-No. think it is not necessary to give. child cod liver oil after the age of one year. un- less the physician prescribes it for some illness or other. Normally children get their vitamin D and vitamin A from milk, eggs. butter. cream, cheese. etc. Infants too young 10 receive such foods re- quire cod liver oil ration.
 Cryptorchi7ism
 We have just discovered that our 3-year-old son has one undescend- ed gland CD. ". M.) ,
 Answer-Generally the condition spontaneously corrects itself by the time the boy reaches the age of IA years. Sometimes a few doses of pituitary hormone hypodermically administered by the family physi- clan. will bring about normal de- scent of the. testicle.
 Nervous?
 If newspaper readers would only pay close attention to what Dr. Brady tries to teach about ''ner- vousness," believe thousands of nervous wrecks" would be re- stored to health .. GA. T. L.)

TOOTHSOME RHUBARB CON. TAINS ELEMENTS FOR BUILD
 ING BONE AND TEETH.
By MARY +. DAGUE NEA Service Staff Writer

Tender and pink and succulent, rhubarb, in my estimation, is worth more to the homemaker than all
 the other harbingers of spring put together. For aside from it's pleasantly
 tart flavor which naturally stim-
 ulates appetite, rhubarb is n fine source of important food elements. It has phosphorous, so necessary for strong teeth and sound bones, as well as the es-
 sential yitamin c.
 Rhubarb mustn't be overcooked, Vitamin c is destroyed if subpect- ed to too great heat for too long a time. And use as little water as possible because rhubarb is juicy. When you make sauce, add the
 sugar just before removing from
 the fire. Then let come to the boiling point and take off at once.
 In this way you need much less , sugar.
 Rhubarb good in desserts. Frozen dishes, hot or cold pud- dings and gelatine rishes are de- licious made with rhubarb, while
 well-sweetened. rhubarb sauce Is good with plain rice and cornstarch buildings.
 For rhubarb ssortcake, make an old fashioned shortcake with
 baking powder biscuit dough. Al ter baking, split, butter and i'll
 with sweetened rhubarb sauce,
 Serve with plain or whipped cream.
 Rhubarb Betty is made like
 brown Betty, only with rhubarb instead of apples.
 For rhubarb shortcake, make
 the fruit is cooked in tapioca and | water, with sugar added when fruit is tender, or the tapioca may be cooked separately and poured over rhubarb arranged in a but tered baking dish and the whole baked thirty minutes in mod crate oven. Serve with sugar and
 cream or with a custard sauce. The first rhubarb usually has tender skin and if well washed need not be peeled. As the season advances the skin grows tough and | stringy and should be removed. Rhubarb cobbler is one of our | favorite desserts to finish off with
 a fish dinner.

LIFE IN A LEPRosARIUM

Many who read this Will recall the heartless way in which the authorities of this country, some of them health officers, bounded the leper Early from one jurisdic- ton to another not so many years ago. The unfortunate victim of this vicious persecution might have been Public Enemy Al, from the way his pursuit by our officers was featured in the headlines.
 In the last fiscal year lending Jdne 30. 1934) GA new patients were admitted to the National Leprosarium, Carville, Louisiana. Of these, 50 had not previously been in the institution, three were former patients who had been par-

oled but whose leprosy had again become active, and five were pre- viously released patients who re turned for treatment of secondary conditions, but whose leprosy show ed ne signs of clinical or bacteriol- ogical reactivation.
 Seventeen patients absconded during the year; six of these were readmitted. Nine aliens were de- ported as not entitled to hospitali- Zation at the expense of the United States government. Twenty patients were paroled, of whom two elect- ed to remain in the hospital.
 Read that last statement over again, you good citizens who get all excited at the very suggestion of leprosy. Two of the twenty pat tents who were paroled elected to remain in the hospital. Is there anything strange about that?
 The answer depends on how much you know about the disease recognized as leprosy today. Prob- ably 8 number of diseases, as we know them now; were included in the ancient conception of leprosy, especially syphilis and tuberculosis.
 Some people know that tub erculosis hospital or sanatorium is the safest place one can live. so far as the risk of contracting tub erculosis is concerned. The reason Is that. everybody in such an in- stitution or community knows and conscientiously practices the simple rules of asepsis.
 For much the same reason leprosarium is a, safe place to live so far as the. risk of contracting lcprosy is concerned. z
 Patients who have spent a year or two in tuberculosis sanator- ium often regret the necessity of leaving the place to return to their former home when the disease be- comes arrested.
 At Carville, where there are generally 360 or more resident pat tents. as we'll as a staff of physi- clans. nurses and employees, there Is quite the same pleasant atmos- phere that patients in the tuber-, culosis sanatorium grow to love. Social activities, entertainment games, lectures, holiday celebra- tions. meals served al fresco. special menus. all combine to maintain a happy spirit. ~
 During the year 66 new volumes were placed in the patients library. and 28 magazines subscribed for and newspapers-all paid for out of the patients own benefit fund.
 Leprosy is rather less likely to spread than Is tuberculosis. and no intelligent person worries if he dis covers somebody living next door has tuberculosis.

Skeeters Due To
Make Good Show
In State Meet

Brownsville viii make a strong
bid for honors in the Texas skeet
shoot tournament next year, accord
ing TO all indications Of local shoot
ers.
IN addition to having a corps OF
veterans who can show up good
in any shoot, such as j. H. Batsell,
Frank Armstrong, and others,
Brownsville Is evidently going 70 be
a strong contender for honors IN
the .4l0 event, and in the junior
shoot.
The scores at the weekly shoot
at the field here gave some indica-
ton Of this.
Bob Batsell, sensational I3-year-
old shooter. showed what he could
do BY scoring a pair Of 24s, for q
AZ out OF so.
Meanwhile his older brother
Jimmy served notice that he may
give Bob and others some competi-

timing. Jimmy has shot very little.

usual, with Oliver Studeman and

HOUNDS And
CARDS READY
Friday Night Tilt May Be
Last In Number
OF Years

SAN BENTTO, NOV. THE foot
ball game between San Berito and
Harrington to be played ut Harrington
Friday night may be the last between
these schools for some time. It Is
entirely possible that the contract
between these two schools may not
be renewed because OF a loss OF in
terest in these games.
This at n time was one Of the
hottest rivalries In the Valley. But
that was before Harrington joined
the Class "A" ranks. With each
playing for a different title, inter-
est In the games decreased to the
point where many other tits have
more drawing power.
Even In Friday nights contest,
the Greyhounds, still very much In
the running for Glass 3" honors,
are looking past the Harlingen
game to the game with Donna
here the following Friday night on
which the Valley "B" title may
depend. Victory In the Donna game
means more TO the Hounds than
victory in the Harrington game al
though they will BY no means
deliberately drop a contest 20 their
old rivals across the arroyo.

CLOSE BATTLE
Is EXPECTED
Aguilas Out to Get Revenge
For FASTING Handed
Them Last Year

With the Eagles cunning for q
$3.50 break In district games and
seeking revenge for a humiliating
pasting handed them last season. a
slam-bang grid contest should be
on display here Friday night when
the Brownsville contingent tangles
with the Edinburg high Bobcats.
The Eagles have been drilling hard
since their 1877 defeat at the hands
OF the Robstown Cotton Pickers last
week and the Birds have made up
their minds that they have lost their
last football game this season. Even
with all Of the breaks against them,
the Aguilas might have beaten the
PickerS except for q couple OF
penalties and adverse rulings on the
part Of the officials.
On one play Louis Fernandez got
away some so yards for what APP
peared to be a touchdown, but the
officials ruled that he stepped out
of bounds on the Robstown 40. IL
was a close decision, and a ruling
favorable to Brownsville would have
given the locals at east a tie and
possibly the game 1913.
The cages are still smarting under
the pasting the Bobcats handed
them at Edinburg last season. Lack
Of goal line punch prevented them
from being In the running in that
game. They rolled up is first downs
In the center OF the field, but Brum-
lev Bros, Inc, stopped them on the
goal line time after time.
With Fernandez and Quintero
smacking the line hard off the tail
back position, the Eagles believe
they have the necessary punch inside
the 10 yard stripe this season.
The Eagles still have a chance OF
finishing high in the District 16-A
race. The only district teams to
beat them were Corpus Christi and
R~obstown. the ~undefeated district
leaders. The Eagles took Kingsville
into camp, thanks to some fine work
by Quintero and his mates, and they
now have their sights trained on
Edinburg, Laredo and Harrington.
The locals should be in fair con-
dition for the Edinburg fray and
they will be keyed up to win. The
Aguilas are tired Of being nosed out
by clubs they might have beaten. and
they are approaching the Edinburg
game in a fighting frame Of mind.
The Bobcats have been drilling
hard for the Brownsville game, and
hope TO break into the win column
at the expense Of the locals. The Ed
inburg staff Is fighting over-confid-
ence, telling the squad that Browns
vile Is no set-up."
The game win get under way at 8

DONNA, Nov. z. - Two OF the
seasons most important and out
standing grid tits in Lower Rio
Grande Valley high school football
circles will be played Friday night
az WeSlaco and Mission.
For sheer tradition and rivalry,
the McAllen-MisSion game, an an
nual affair for the past II years,
probably is unsurpassed in the Val
ley. Regardless OF the strength OF
the teams and the showings made
against other Valley teams, both
play their finest game OF the year
when they meet. McAllen is given q
slight edge over the Eagles this
season due to Mission injuries IN
earlier games. but Mission has a
more experienced club which dem
onstratec its power in holding the
San Benito G~reyhounds, runners
up for Valley Class 3 honors this
season, TO q 90 tie.
As far as Class B standings are
concerned, the most important game
played this season will be the Friday
night scrap at Weslaco between
the Weslaco Panthers and the fast
moving, powerful Donna Redskins.
The Indians have been on the war
path all season and have turned
back six Class B clubs In consecutive
order with only seven points scored
against them. They are making q
desperate effort to repeat for their
Valley. district and bi-district titles
won last season. II they repeat IN
the Valley, it will be the first time
In the recent history OF Valley high
school football. The Panthers were
Valley, district, bi-district and re-
gional champs OF 1888 and have
shown flashes Of their old power
thus far this season. Their only
loss was q 7-6 decision to the San
Benito Greyhounds. They are given
credit for being the only remaining
possible conquerors OF Coach George
Vests Wild Indians. A huge crowd,
II not the largest Of the current
season, is expected to see this en-
counter.
Grudge Battle
Another struggle Of the annual
"grudge" variety will be the San
Benito-H arlingen scrap under the
lights at Harlingen. The Glass 3
Greyhounds are in second place In
the Valley race while the Class a
Cardinals have been playing In an
other district, but the two clubs
have steadily continued their an
nual game which dates from the
time when none but Glass B teams
were located in the Valley.
Two Valley Glass B elevens who
have not yet won q scheduled Glass
B game, the Mercedes Tigers and
the La Joya Coyotes will meet at
Mercedes Friday afternoon to battle
1t out for the cellar position. Mer-
cedes is given the edge over the
Coyotes, playing their first year OF
Class B football.
The only Glass A district game OF
the week in the Valley will see the
Edinburg Bobcats scrapping the
Brownsville Eagles at Brownsville
with the latter doped to win. Edin-
burg, playing It's first year Of Glass
A football, has yet to win q district
game.
Another interesting tilt, but one
without much importance insofar
as district standings are concerned,
viii be the struggle between the Rio
Hondo Bobcats and the La Feria
Lions. The more experienced Lions
are expected to win.
