Where Does Your Money
Come From?

A certain Texas advertising agency which handles
the account Of one OF the major oil companies, has a
habit OF every once In a while reminding its news
paper clients Of the origin Of their payroll money.
The agency even goes further. and asks the news
papers to remind their employees Of this same thing.
the origin Of payroll money and specifically. the
origin Of the money represented In the payroll
check each employe receives every week.
"A reminder Of this sort. done in the nice manner
that characterizes the action Of this particular ad-
~vertising agency, is most fitting and proper. 1t does
a lot Of good, for instance, to remind the folks that
labor on newspapers, that a part Of their pay check
originates in the treasury Of this Oil company and
that tobacco company.
Not only does II lead them to patronize the prod
ucts Of these particular concerns, but 1t oft times
leads to a broader view Of our economic existence.
and makes them realize that the auto manufacturer
Of Detroit and the soap manufacturer Of Los Angeles
is directly connected with their financial upkeep and
the success Of their newspaper, published in Browns
Vile or Mission or Beevile.
And such a reminder gets one away from the old
tnsular idea that any individual, any community,
Is sufficient to himself or itself alone. The man in
Brownsville buys a new automobile, and the $1,000
or so is spread the nation over, from the cotton
fields Of the south to the rubber districts Of the
Amazon to the coal mines Of Pennsylvania and a
score Of other districts.
And g part Of the money the man in Brownsville
paid for his automobile goes to the worker in De
troit whose wife walks into the neighborhood grocery
store on a Saturday morning and pays it out for
tomatoes grown near Brownsville, for cabbage har-
vested at San Benito and roasting ears shipped from
Weslaco.
May be 50 that when enough OF us the country
over have bought new mechanical refrigerators the
workers Of that industry gather together enough
shekels and bring the family down to the Valley for
q couple Of weeks outing. And the money they
spend goes into the family pocketbook Of the man
who wants a new radio.
It's an endless chain. this division Of the money
we spend. and by spending judiciously we are all
helping prosperity for ourselves as well as the other
fellow.
OF course, when we have the choice Of a product.
we are going to spend with those who are spending
with US. It's the proper sort Of economic reciprocity,
and a matter deserving Of thought.

Some antoists are not 50 careful Some seem 10 find
a particular delight In yielding to the manifest temp
tations offered by the smooth sands, and to step
on the gas.
Most children are careful as TO the manner IN
which they reach the water from the loose sands up
the beach and the manner In which they run from
the water to their cars.
Some children are not SO careful. They race
blindly ahead without stopping to scan the beach In
both directions.
AutoiSts and children must both be careful II
tragedy is not some day to mar the happy delights
Of Boca Chica.
The life Of a child is too big a price to pay for

the child or on the part Of the automobile driver.

them drive slowly and carefully. are ever on the alert

When High Heels Drop
Back Will Suffer
By DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor. Journal Of the American Medical Association
and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine

Women who wear high heels. then hike over q golf
course with low-heeled shoes; athletes who suddenly
let down on their activity; persons who sleep In
awkward positions-these are the most frequent
sufferers from backache. :
When you are in the habit Of wearing high-heeled
shoes, it is a sudden tax on your spine to switch to
low heels.
Many women with high heels find it necessary to
hold their backs in a bent position to maintain q
suitable balance. Let them adopt low-heeled shoes,
as when they take UP some form Of sport Like golf,
and there's pain in the back. due to a change from
the unnatural position OF the spine caused by the
high heels.
Furthermore. any painful position Of the feet may
cause one TO walk in an odd manner, bringing a
new type Of strain in some part Of the body, and
chronic backache as a result.
In the case Of athletes. there is a general relax
alton Of the body when the ~sedentary life Is taken up.
In such instance, the whole muscular system droops,
the muscle lost their tone and their ability to hold
the bones Of the body in the right position. and
here again backache comes easily.
The reason why many persons awake with a back
ache Is that one OF the joints in the spine becomes
locked. most likely from lying In an awkward posi-
ton. The common variety Of stiff neck is due to
this.
Besides these factors. perhaps the most frequent
cause Of pain in the back Is an Inflammation Of one
OF the many joints In the spinal column. For a
suitable examination. X-ray pictures should be
taken, and a general study OF the afflicted persons
physical condition should be made.
Once the cause Of a chronic pain in the back has
been determined. relief can be had in one OF many
ways. In some cases proper application Of adhesive
tape will hold the joints in a fixed position and pre-
vent pulling or pressure on the sensitive areas.
When there has been an injury to the back, It Is
important to provide suitable rest for the injured
area. This can be effected by strapping UP the body,
or by wearing suitable braces or supports.
Such apparatus has been designed in many forms,
particularly for the lower part OF the body. since low
back pain Is among the most frequent types Of
backache.

OF their deep admiration for En-

Cochran hesitated until almost too
late to run. But his friends insisted
and he plunged into the campaign

the states widest politician.
In the regular election. Cochran
was pitted against a personal friend
and an American Legion buddy,
Dwight Griswold. Victory was his
ana without much difficulty.

Less Weight and Greater
Durability Cited as
Advantages.

A plane that weighs just GAO Of
an ounce!
That's the weight record achieved
by William Becker, expert model
builder of Lakewood, O., by using
microflm covering on his latest
Baby R. G. o. indoor endurance
model.
Many of you will ask, What is
microf1lm?"
1t is a transparent flm-like cover
ing that looks similar to cellophane
but is much lighter in weight.
Microfilm was first introduced to
model builders at the national con-
tests at Atlantic City in 1882. The
tiny models on which it was used
failed to make an impreSsionable
showing in the meet and so micro
film wasn't greeted by the experts
with any degree of enthusiasm.
Hail New Dressing
But in December of the same year
Herbert owen of New Britain,
Conn, flying in the eastern states
indoor contest at New York City,
broke the worlds record with a mi
crofilm- covered ship.
Junior pilots Immediately hailed
it as a new discovery and rushed to
find out about this new feather
weight covering. Many of them
wanted to use it on their endurance
planes in the nationals in June.
So since owens record-breaking
fight microfilm has progressed and
many are now using it on their
models with success.
It's a fairly simple substance to
produce and there are many ways
of making it, but the base of the
film is the same in all cases. 1t
consists of ammyl acetate, collodium
and tricesyl phosphate.
Forms Thin Film
A solution is made from these
chemicals and a few drops placed
