summer time and is preventive in
character. designed to get the feet

The object Of treatment is to re-

ones to replace those destroyed by
the freezing. The best way to do
this is by alternately sucking or
pressing the affected limb-creating
a positive and a negative pressure.
An apparatus called the Pavaex
treatment unit has been devised for
this purpose and now is widely used
throughout the country. Those who
had frostbite during our late severe
winter are advised to get in touch

y. L notice your furnishings are the
most unpretentious on Park Avenue.

tice and, if you don't mind my saying
so, make the most money of any So

A. L keep my ante-room a little

Also when it comes time to pay their
bills they remember the frayed car
pet in the reception hall and send the
money promptly on the theory that 1
need it.
q. You specialize in nervous disor-
ders. Did you always take an inter-
est in these maladies, from your in
terne days?
A. L wanted to be a surgeon. But I
got two or three rich patients and
they introduced me to their friends
or rather brought their friends to
see me. First thing I knew I was treat
ing almost nothing but nervous dis
orders; they have been fashionable
for years along Park Avenue
Q. But tell me the truth about fees.
You have written text books and your
standing in the profession is ace-high.
How is it that you are interested
enough in money to charge $4,000 for
attendance in illness-even though
the patient is worth millions"
A. If 1 didn't, the word would get
around that I was slipping Also, it is
necessary to charge huge fees and

Q. But how do you spend your in

entertain or run yacht.
A. I turn over most of my income
to about a dozen different hospitals
for children all over the country.
That's my hobby. I get a bigger kick
out of giving money to those hospitals
than another man would out of golf
or a yacht. Last year 1 gave away so
much that had to borrow to paw NV
expenses for the year.
S. But that seems admirable. You
talk as if it were a weakness.
A. 1t is a weakness. My dear young
man, nobody does anything from mo-
tives which are purely detached and
lofty. That is, not unless he is insane.
If you met a man absolutely unselfish
and utterly philanthropic you woul-

ANSWERS

1. There was a law in force in the
State that made the sheriff liable for
the debt even though the prisoner did
not avail himself of the open door and
leave the Jail. Judge Murphey knew
this when he was jailed in Greensboro
in 1929 on a judgment secured by Ar
thur Harris. Sheriff John w. Doak
did not wish to lock the door and left
it open until he was advised by the
judge to lock it.
2. From 1921 to June 80, 1884, the
total was $1,606, 847.57, and jointly
with Guilford, $3.50 49213.
3. In 1880 as a result of abolition
lierature being distributed over the
State in an effort to spread discon-
tent among the slaves, and to arouse
them to instruction.
4. This was North Cardinals first
statewide system. Only seven counties
voted against it, but six or seven
years later it was claimed in many
sections that the school houses were
deserted, the doors broken from their
hinges, and grass growing in the
yards. There was a feeling that tax
supported school shocked OF

5. The plant and farm consists of
1,248 acres, valued at $4,7S6,594 ID.

who had been licensed to preach in
