Will you explain something
about the causes and symptoms of
Neuritis.-Mrs. H. B.
Neuritis is 4 composite foreign
word from the Latin "neure" and
"ritis''. Neure means nerve and
ritis means pain. Thus these two
latin words, unified, gives us the
word "Neuritis.' % When translated
into our American Language, it
means nothing else than nerve pain.
The nerve trunks, known as the
motor and sensory nervous system,
furnished us with possible energy
and feeling. The sensory system
permits sensation to become con-
scious fact, and the motor system
permits motion and activity to the
different parts and organs of our
body.
In Neuritis the nerves of these
two nerve trunks, or parts of them,
have become inflamed. When only
one nerve is affected, the ailment
is called local or simple neuritis.
When many nerves are involved, it
is called general OF multiple neuritis.
Local or simple neuritis may be
due to cold, injury to nerve, ac-
cidental or otherwise, such as blows,
dislocation, subluxations (which is
vertebrae of the spine which is
out of its natural place; prolonged
pressure, or from undue exposure to
cold. A man may go to sleep with
his head pillowed upon his arm,
which is supported upon the back
of a chair and when he awakens he
finds that his arm has been Paraly-
zed from prolonged pressure upon
the nerve. There are many ways
in which such experiments are
made, although such cases usually
recover quickly.
General or multiple Neuriti'

causes, although its origin is essen

When deposits of irritating waste
materials accumulate around 'th'

Early IN his regime he applauded natural
ISM in women; he frowned upon plucked
eyebrows, rouge, lipsticks and that Paris
look" An attempt was made to build up
characteristic Italian fashions There we're

younger women thought they we're terrible.
In time Mussolini discovered that to inter-
fere with women s ideas of how to look attrac-
tive is to make serious blunder Neither
Italian industry nor the state finances could
stand the strain and now the regime does
much to encourage fashion. The Duces own
eldest daughter sets the fashion pace. She is
one of the smartest looking women in Europe

ings and other appurenances of the fashion
conscious female recently was ended by an
official ukase to the effect that Nazi zealots

industrial power of that enormous area, find
they cannot neglect a market of 100000
women. Fashion and the beauty cult must
find place in any industrial program.
Hence the vogue of the lip-stick in the
U.S.S.R. today. 1t is the vivid external symp-

In the Identification program the cult of
the hair stands high - and costs much. Plati-
mum blonding is purely American invention.
But around the world whole complex of new
industries, fashion needs and ideas have grown
up around it. Change the color of woman's
hair and you start a train of ideas which run
from cosmetics at one end to stockings at the
other.
The vogue for tinted heads that started
with the sizzling advent of the original
platinum blonde is not ended by any means.

mauve hair; and we may yet see them chang

Indeed, although women are already more

This is what is known as a political year, which
means that issues are not discussed, studied or debated
upon their merits but upon their election value.
Men and women in the public eye watch what they
say about any subject. They fear distorted Interpretation
in the interest of political effect. Sometimes the unex-
pected reaction comes from within their own party al
though more often the expression is seized by opponents
for such manipulation as may seem fruitful.
Even newspapers are not immune from the attack.
Editors hesitate to say anything good about the "other
side" or to give publicity to what may prove beneficial
to the enemy. Like the politicians, editors adopt cam
paigs tactics and play the safe strategy" praising their
particular side and denouncing the opposition
We wonder if it ever occurs to these leaders of pub
tic opinion that the people, after all, have some sense
and are able to recognize such tactics? Haven't we
reached a stage in the development of public intelligence
that behooves a more enlightened attitude on the
part of press, politicians and candidates?
AS an example of what we have in mind let us call
attention to our regular feature, Looking at Washing
ton,' written by Hugo Sims This writer, a lawyer and
trained newspaper man, attempts to give his readers an
accurate report on Federal developments and, as far as
possible, to reflect the political situation as it exists, re-
gardless Of the interests of any party or person.
Whether one agrees with his treatment of events or
not is unimportant. The column contains much import
ant data each week. Its conclusions may be often err
roneous but even SO, the reader will certainly find facts
intelligently presented and will be better informed for
reading it.
The Plentywood Herald, in publishing Looking at
Washington" does not thereby endorse all statements in
it. However, the column is widely printed all over the
United States and is generally proving popular with
readers, although the author admits it can never be en-
trely acceptable to what one might call the "red-hot
partisans' of the political world.

British Hesitation

In 1914 German hatred of England reached its high
est level when the Germans were disappointed that the
British did not remain neutral in the war which was be-
ing inaugurated. So now, Hitler, with all his natonalism,
hopes for a foreign policy that will gradually prevent
Great Britain taking sides with France in the event of
another struggle.
The Germans would not go to war if they knew the
British would support the French, therefore, it seems to
us that uncertainty about the English attitude will en-
courage rather than prevent war. When Foreign Secre-
tary Eden completed a recent speech before the House OF
Commons, the Opposition, represented by Hugh Dalton,
formerly Labor Under-Secretary in the Foreign Depart
ment, expressed this viewpoint:
Great Britain should tell the German people in
friendship and frankness that their political and econom-
ic equality is recognized. But that does not mean that we
recognize the right of any nation to an overbearing, bru-
tai predominance. Germany should be told that if she
returns to the League she will have re need for over
towering ornaments because she will be collectively
guaranteed as to the inviolabiity OF all her frontiers.
IF Germany refuses, other countries must organize
peace without her and Britain must make it clear that
Germany is to have no free hand to attack Poland,
Czechoslovakia, Austria or Russia. If Britain speaks
plainly in Europe there can be no war

HealAL


WHO is DR.. TOWNSEND?

DR.. Townsend is now prominently
before the public on account of his
plan for giving all the people over six
ty years of age $500 a month.
Like most would-be reformers, his
own troubles put the idea into his
head. Being down and out, and seeing
many other old people in a similar
plight, he naturally succumhed to the
fashion OF the times, and concluded
that since the government was hand
ing out money so freely to people who
neither deserve it nor earn it, there
was no reason why he, nor others who
had left youth behind, should not re-
ceive a liberal largess from Uncle Sam.
Edward Townsend was a poor farm
boy of Illinois. His hands were rough
and hard, and his clothing we'll worn
and thin. He longed for an education.
And S he went to a small town in his
native state and worked at every job
that he could find to earn enough to
put him through school. He moved
lawns, delivered newspapers, ran err
rands, tended furnaces and MIXED
cows, until he acquired enough learn
ing to enter a medical college. He went
to Lincoln, Nebraska, and entered the
university, where he paid his way by
work until he was graduated into a
full fledged writer of prescriptions n
dispenser of pills.
He was 80 years of age before get
ting his degree, and the younger and
more fortunate students nick-named
him Dad" As he stood with his Dip
Iona in his hand he wondered where
he would go TO practice his profession.
He knew no well-established physi-
clan to whom he could turn to help
him locate himself in a lucrative city
practice. He thought of the desolate
Black Hills of South Dakota. He knew
that there wasn't much money there,
that the population was scattered and
poor. He knew hat the few people
who were there lived long distances
apart, but he went. Through the long,
cold winters he rode through the snow
and sleet to see the people who We're
sick, to ease the dying and to usher the
new comer into the world.
After laboring in the %far-hung Da-
kotas for long years, he took the mo-
ney he had managed to save, and went
to Long Beach, California where he
was employed as assistant health Of
ficer. Then the banks in which he had
put his money failed, and he was kept
busy with postmortems in suicide.
Then a new city government put him
out of his job. He looked out of his
window one morning as he was shaw
ing and saw three old ladies searching
through the garbage cans for bits of
food. He thought of suicide, but he
had fought and struggled too long for
that, The old ladies had given him an
inspiration. AN army of us oldsters
have lost our money and are facing
starvation. Able bodied men and wo-
men who have not earned it are be-
ing supported by the government, why
not we?" And so it all started. And
now the little zephyr is threatening
to become a tornado.
