courage.
Hours passed, and now the
swirling waters reached almost 70
their waists. At IL o'clock the
tender returned 70 the ship with
passengers from shore, It's red
and green lights tantalizlng as a
mirage as the boat passed beyond

as if their last veStiGe OF nope
had vanished. Through the long
hours, Dick had held out that
promise OF salvation. The tender,
on its way back 10 the boat,
would pick them up. They would
call with all their might and some
one would hear them. Someone,
surely. But the wind from the
shore blew their cries back in
their faces and the tender chug-
ged on out OF sight.
Now he started TO pull Off his
shoes. Pm going TO swim for 1t,
he told them. I'VE cant wait here
forever"
Joyce put out a restraining
hand. "Well all go together, Dick.
You can't risk it alone"
He took off his coat, laid It
over her Outstretched arm. You
must stay here, Yoyce. Don't come
after me. In that midstream cur

swept in every direction. Let me
go alone, so that I'll know where

Her voice was edged with hyS-

But Dick grasped Yoyce's hand,

he was gone. The black waters
swallowed him, and presently
there was no sign of him save the
sound of his swimming. And then
that too was intermingled with the
sounds of the night.

DR.. Wolman Says

The annual anti-tuberculosis edu

tuberculosis Association is now
under way, it was reported by the
association, in an attempt to bring
about reduction in the tubercu-
losis incidence and mortality
rates in the state by stressing
early diagnosis of the disease.
Tuberculosis is an incidious
disease and can be doing much
harm to the body long before any
signs appear to show it's presence"
DR.. Samuel Wolman, president of
the association said. eff the dis
ease is discovered early it can al
most be cured before serious dam
age has been done. If persons
wait until signs appear, denoting
illness, the disease has usually adj
vanced beyond the early stage and
the cure becomes more difficult
and costly.
Modern medicine has provided
us with the means of discovering
the disease before irreparable in

will find it very interesting to
visit the Key House, birthplace
and former home of Francis Scott

ner."
This historic place is located in
Carroll County, a mile from the
little village of Keysville. The
name of the Key estate is Terra
Rubra." and is located in the Red
Lands of Carroll county, this Sec
ton having originally been in
Frederick county when Philip Key
Of English descent, and great
grandfather of Francis Scott Key,
patented about 5000 acres of yir-
gin forest land when this country
was being settled History tells
us that Francis Scott Key was
born here on August /, 1873, the
son of John R. Key.
It is historical data that the
Key family in the early days
owned large numbers of slaves
and that the Keys were very kind
to them, teaching them religious
things and also the rudiments of
everyday education.
Francis Scott Key was a lawyer
and subsequently moved to George
Town. Any school boy or girl is
familiar with the circumstances
under which he wrote the national
anthem, while detained as prison
err by the British and while on the
boat out in the bay, with others
watched the siege with the great
est anxiety and when the morning
daWned and he still saw the flag
over Fort McHenry, to which
stronghold the British laid siege,
still waving, he penned the immor-
tai song. The song was popular
for over 100 years before it Off
cially became the National An
them, which was in 1881. Key
was greatly interested in the War
Of 1912, as it was known, the siege
of Fort McFIenry being in 1914.
The flag which floated from the
masthead of Fort McHenry, conf
tanned 400 yards of red, white and
blue bunting, with dimensions SO
by 81. History says that during
bombardment of Is hours by the
British on Fort McHenry, 1900
shells had exploded around the
fort, but only four of its defend
ers were killed. 1t was this con-
fllct that Key watched on a stormy
night.
So, any one interested can visit
the old Key home and recall the
patriotism of Francis Scott Key,
and get inspiration for home and
native land from this patriot,
whose song uncovers the heads of

Gloritng Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Stan Writer

NEh OCEVACC 0SAA vvAASSA
 Within the past few weeks several readers asked for information on the number of calories an adult requires per day. That is, if she wants to maintain her present weight.
 Well, if you take no exercise mul- tiply your weight by 15 and the resulting figure will be the number of calories you ought to consume each day. If you take light exercise, multiply your weight by IT. If you are unusually active, multiply by 9. And by 25 if you do heavy physical labor.
 If you want to lose weight. sim ply cut down on the caloric con- tent of your daily menus. Increase it if you want to gain.
 You know, of course, that one large apple contains 100 calories; one orange 75; one thick slice of fresh pineapple 50; one medium sized peach 35. But do you know that one boiled or poached egg con- tains 30 calories while one fried egg contains 100? And that one pork chop contains 200 while one lamb chop contains 100?
 Incidentally, there are about 100 calories in two medium thick slices in two medium thick slices of white bread and the same number in two medium thick slices of whole wheat bread. In an average portion of layer cake there are 45O. And $50 in one portion of pie-that is, one sixth of pie.
 You get 215 calories from 3-4 cup of macaroni and cheese; 100 from IA cup of chicken meat; 25O from one cup of baked custard; 200 from 1-2 cup of ice cream; only 25 from one cup of clear consomme.
 There are $50 calories in one chocolate bar (with almonds); 100 in two tablespoons of gravy; 100 in 4 large olives; 100 in three table, spoons of sugar; 100 in one and one- half tablespoons of French dressing; 100 in one tablespoon of mayon- naise; 85 in one cup of skinned milk; 160 in one glass of whole milk.
