The whole point Of the test is that
blood pressure changes with the
emotional content Of the converse
ton and the questions asked.
According to the studies Of Muel-
Ter, the day and night fluctuations
in people with high blood pressure
follow the same pattern as normal
individuals. He believes that emo
tional stimuli affect those with es-
sential high pressure with extreme
reactions, whereas in normal per-
sons there would be only mild reac-
tons.
There are, however, many cases
where blood pressure has contin-
ued on a high level due entirely to
emotional stress. Thus q typical
case related by Wolfe is Of a young
man who had q blood pressure con-
tinuously over 100 (diastolic 1907.

an anxiety neurosis. After three
months Of treatment, purely psy-

The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-07-20

Behind the "shoWmanship" and appreciation of what the public likes and approves stretches an im- pressive record of experience. Some months ago the Democrats bio- grapher in presenting word pic- lures" of outstanding Waterbury neighbors provided the information that Miss Smith, who in private life is Mrs. Julia Marie Smith zoeller, is a native of Boston. She was born within the shadow of the Old North Church, made famous in Longfel- lows poem, "The Ride of Paul Re- vere."
 Ambitious!
 She was one of nine children born to MT. and Mrs. John s. Smith, old time residents of Boston. She was educated in the Hub City She cherished an early ambition to be- come an actress, to follow literary career or engage in business. She compromised" and after brief period singing illustrated songs in the Scenic Temple of Boston, be- came buyer of pictures for the con- cern with which she was associated. She later did the selecting of films for seven different theaterS and laid the groundwork that is serving her so well in her present capacity. She became the first woman to be grant, ed motion picture operators li- cense in Massachusetts, indicating that she was interested in learning the picture business from A to z. from the office box to the technique of not only managing, but present. ing films.
 As a reward for services over period of years she was given six months vacation in Hollywood where she met the stars of the cur rent time, studied at closeup range the making of pictures and acquired such an intimate knowledge of the inside story of the industry that she was later engaged to make a na- tional tour with outstanding pie lures.
 Miss Smith.
 She eventually entered the serv- ice of the Warner Brothers and came to Waterbury to manage the Strand and later the State theater and presently both. The Democrats biographer in his article eulogized not only Miss Smiths ability and suc- cess, but her never failing courteous ness to all. She was consequently esteemed by all, especially by the young and old with whom she is always sympathetic and considerate. It has become traditional that when one thinks of the State or Strand theaters Miss Smith looms prom inently in the mental picture as manager, friend and fellow citizen.
 More than 10000 telephone calls for taxicabs are made every day in Stockholm, Sweden.

WEATHERMAN MAY SMILE TOMORROW
Prediction of Fair Day Acc cepted With Reserva=
 tions By Majority

Slightly in excess of an inch of rain fell in Waterbury between yes- terday noon and today at the same hour, according to the official gauge of City Plumbing Inspector James R. Walker.
 Temperature this noon was at 75 degrees, cooler by about 10 degrees than most of the past several days.
 But the torrents of last night, the showers throughout the morning, failed to relieve Waterbury of the humidity which has become the bane of that majority still awaiting vacation time. The air remained humid and sticky and raincoats proved as much a burden, in terms of uncomfortable added warmth, as they were benefits to those who thought to preclude colds by keep ing dry without.
 Prospect offered by the weather man for the rest of today and to- night is continued mugginess and showers. Tomorrow fair weather is promised-and the prediction has been accepted-with reservations.

Since Gettys- burg was one of the vost vital events in our national life; a large attendance is anticipated at this meeting, to hear Lt.-Col. Shanahan.

 Then-one o'clock. The converse ton dies, harassed men swarm back to work, the streets are returned to the automobiles.
 Out of this bleak monotony come the exquisite furs that make nice women lovely, lovely women beauti- full. It is always little difficult to realize that.
 A Tea Party, Darn It!
 New Works big, brash gentlemen of the press-at thought of whom important people quake-were in- vited to Shirley Temple party the other day when the little lady was town.
 Right at the start, 1t was funny party. Doormen held a carefully pruned guest-list and no one who wasn't on the list could get in, which is very strange, for press par ties are generally free-for-alls where anybody who knows newspaper man by his first name-and who doesn't-can crash along with the scribe.
 Then came the refreshments. Now refreshments" to newspaperman means only one thing, and press party throwers always provide the only kind that has significance to the gentry of the press. But at THIS party the fiabbergasted journalists were served ice cream, sandwiches, cake, iced coffee and iced tea.
 It was too much for these men and women who are accustomed to seeing anything happen. Men who have partied around together for years, shifted from foot to foot suffered and stammered and tried to be polite to each other.
 The walters looked positively en- barrassed as they bent over each scribe in turn and asked, "Will you have iced coffee or iced tea?"
 But Shirley had fun. Center of attention and all that. She showed more poise than all the grown-ups put together.
 AS she played hostess around the room, the fearless journalists sat whispering, Don't you think there is rouge on Shirley's cheeks?" Don't you thing her eyebrows and eye lashes are dyed?' Here hair is bleached, isn't it?"
 Well, the party finally ended anC | wonder of wonders-the film con- pany's press-agent who arranged the affair asked the scribes not tc write interviews.

 Miss Smith has also caused num- Der of other changes about the the ater in addition to the recent erec- tion of the beautiful marquee that has been 8 source of delight to spectators and not little pride to hometown boosters. She has cre- ated a very summery effect in the arrangement of seats in the spacious air-cooled auditorium.
 Enjoys Confidence
 As manager of both the State and Strand theaterS Miss Smith has won the confidence and respect of the theater-going public and the ad- miration of associates in the thea trical profession. Her idea of film for adults and young sters, her selection of current pie lures and the atmosphere in which they are presented, has excited com- mendation on frequent occasions and has brought personal tributes for her "showmanship" and execu- tive ability.

New York, July 20. Be they chinchilla or dyed rabbit, some time in their careers your furs have touched one or another of the shops in the four or five blocks in mid- Manhattan where the great fur in- dustry makes its headquarters.
 This fur district is a strange place. While hides worth millions are tossed around carelessly, hung on hooks, piled here and there, bor- derline entrepreneurs in little cub by-hole stores sell scraps, claws, tails, heads, odds and ends.
 There is always a strong odor of can1phor about the district, and the smells of chemicals and of raw pelts. The air is full of dust and f1bers and the enterprising hum of machinery. In the million windows of the crowded skyscraper loft buildings humdrum business names are inscribed alongside fascinating ones-Tientsin, Bombay, Harbin, Chungking-the great depots where furs are gathered for the New York market.
 They "Schmuss"
 There is nearly always traffic jam in the streets, but 1t becomes child's jlay by comparison when twelve o'clock striges and the fur workers swarm out for lunch.
 Pallid, excitable, poorly dressed, grirny men pour into the streets sandwich in hand, or into the taw- ory, evil-smelling luncheries that dot the area. In couple of gulps they've finished their lunches and have turned to the more important business of "schmussing" or of play ing ball.
 Great knots of them gather to "schmusS"-discuss-exerything un- der the sun, chiefly the all-import- ant doings of their powerful union and the equally powerful employers organization. Politics of every shade, economies, the theater, the press, the ways of men with the women, all bounce up in the street-curb forums.
 Much of the conversation is in- comprehensible. for it ranges in half dozen tongues. But what can be

 The board voted approval to the educational department to conduct the Mattatuck Technical Institute, scheduled to open this fall. It is to provide opportunity for workers in industry to obtain technical educa- tion.
 Chairman Heminway reported that there are now 146 boys and counselors at camp. we are run ming here one of the best boys camps in the United States" he said. While the camp is well pat ronized, I am surprised that we do not have a long waiting list. We have the best counselors that can be secured, and we have at the present time 43 counselors and employees, SO that the boys get the best supervi- sion from able and experienced counselors. The food is good and there is plenty of it, and the health Of the campers is carefully scruti- nized by medical experts. This camp offers an unparalleled opportunity for boys, with its high-grade lead- ership and its low cost"
 Year Camp
 The directors also spent consider able time discussing operation of the camp on a year-around basis, so as to make the out-of- doors privilege available all the year for the young boys of the city.
 Later in the evening the boys staged the following boxing bouts, the winner being named first:
