''The Endless Sleep'
BY FLOYD GIBBONS

E EVERYBODY:
- Over in China some funny things can happen. A doc
tor there, so I'm told, has to be careful what he says. If he
guarantees to cure a patient, and the patient dies, they take
the doctor out and cut his head off. That's China for you.
Doggone few doctors over there ever guarantee to cure a
patient of anything, and when they do make such a guar
antee they charge a young fortune for it.
If 1 told you such a thing could happen W. here, you'd say
l was crazy. But just the same that's exactly what l a m going
to tell you.
Don't be too fast about hopping N me though. Before you start call
ing me names, listen to this story from Distinguished Adventurer Saul
Kaplan of Brooklyn, N. Y.
Saul isn't a doctor, but in the mner of 1921 he "a living with
one out in Arverne, N Long Island. He ws with the Doc the night his
adventure happened-and Saul managed TO have an adventure of his own
before it was all over. For a while there. lives were batted around like
the little ivory ball on a roulette wheel. And nobody knew at what see
od he "a going to see his own life drop into the zero slot-When he a
going to watch the Great Croupier, Fate, lean lei the board and rake
in all his chips.
Called to a Dying Baby.
1t was a hot night in July. and along about the middle of it Saul
was awakened by a loud pounding 0 the front door of the bungalow in
which he and the Doc we're sunnNering. He answered the knock and
there before him. stood an excited little Italian who waved his arms fran
tcaly and clarn"red for the doctor. His baby was sick. He thought it
was going to die He wanted the doctor to cone right away.
Saul woke the Doc. and together they vent to the Italians house.
The Italian had been right. His banbino was plenty sick. 1t was
diphtheria, and it had been neglected SO long that the poor kid didn't have
a chance. But the Doc went to work with his sleeves rolled up and did
what he could. He sent Saul o a drug store for al opiate and fed one of

quarts Of pear butter. She also pot

stored 20 bushels of sweet potatoes,
four gallons Of sauerkraut, rs quarts
of pickles and 80 quarts Of chilli

Improved canning practices, such
as the use of pressure cookers, are
encouraged. In many cases, where
pressure cookers were too expen-
sive for one Gamer to buy, groups
of housewives have been granted
FSA loans to purchase this equip
ment for use ON a cooperative basis.
In this manner, throughout the
country, thousands of farm wives
have found it possible to can their
food scientifically through the use
of equipment that they could not
afford individually.
