France has received assur-

In the World war, Senegal alone

or other specialist if necessary.
Having found no infection or defect
that could possibly account for the
foolish sayings or strange actions,
he may, by patient questioning,
be able to find how, when and where
the "odd" behavior got its start.
Specialist Is Important.
However, just as he recognizes
the ability of the dentist, the throat
specialist, the heart specialist and
other specialists in each of their
prospective fields, he recognizes
also the ability of the mental spe-
cialist to search in a deeper or surer
way for the hidden or long forgotten
circumstances that are causing the
patient to try to avoid responsible
ties, necessary duties or even dam
gers.
The mental specialist being now
reasonably sure that there is no in
lection or other physical cause for
the behavior symptoms, begins his
long, patient and thorough search
that may enable him gradually to
unwind the tangled skein. The
search may go back to childhood,
to teen age, and often to more re-
cent circumstances which have TAX

caused the development of behav-
ior that is unsuitable to our every
day life.

Massage Helps
Rheumatic Headache

When physicians have already
found over 100 causes for headache,
it can readily be seen that unless
the patient can describe the nature
of the pain-stabbing, throbbing,
dull, sharp, exact place on or in his
head-it may require considerable
time to discover the cause. Even
when the pain is only in the fore
head, it may be due to eye strain,
sinus infection, gas pressure or 9TH
er conditions.
There is one type of headache that
appears to be more common than
formerly and that is pain in the
muscles covering the head, extend
ing down into muscle at back of
neck. This is frequently symptom
of influenza and when the Individual
has been exposed to draft at home,
office, theater or motorcar. How
ever, this pain in muscles of the
scalp and back of neck may be due
to rheumatism as described by DR..
James Cyriax in the British Medi-
cal Journal.
'The patient has often had pre-
vious attacks of rheumatism and an
attack of influenza or cold occurs
before the onset of the headache. AS
a rule, the headache is present on
waking and moving the head, keep
ing neck rigid, does not aggravate
or increase the pain in the head as
in other kinds of headache.
Two Main Groups.
These rheumatic headaches may
be separated into two groups: Pain
in the head from the neck muscles,
and pain in the head due to the thin
layer of muscle called the scalp.

colonial council which has consider

taxation and general legislation.
Senegalese women are more inter-
ested in coiffeurs and trinkets than
in clothing; their dress may be a
loin cloth or an elaborate cotton
print.
The natives live mostly in
matched huts. While one species
of acacia affords ship timber, much
of the lumber is imported from the
Baltic countries. The native food is
largely peanuts, a small millet,
beans, rice and corn. In addition
to farming, the Senegalese raise
live stock: cattle, sheep and goats,
as well as camels and horses.
The farming is of a primitive sort,

the ,Oest on the shores of the North
sea.
North sea, WiIhelmshaven is about
365 miles by airline from London or
less than two hours flight by mod
ern military aircraft.
Wilhelmshaven was planned as
a naval station in 1853 when its site
was purchased by Prussia from the
grand duke of Oldenburg. The city
is new as German cities go. It
was built in 1855 and its harbor was
not opened to commercial shipping
until IA years later. It's $4,000 in
habitants today are employed large
ly in the naval station, in the han
ding of shipping and in shipbuild-
ing. Wilhelmshaven was the scene
of the mutiny among seamen that
spread over the German fleet in
1918.
There are several large and small
basins with shipyards and drydocks
for the construction and repair of
ships. Each of the three entrances
to the basins has locks (necessitat-
ed by the tidal range) which are
guarded by strong Notifications.
Cuxhaven Also Important.
Cuxhaven, another German naval
base, where it is reported 5 of II
attacking British military planes
were brought down, is 400 miles by
air from the British capital.
The city lies on the west bank of
the Elbe river only few miles
from the point at which the stream
flows into the North sea. It is
about 40 miles northeast of Will
helmshaven. Hamburg, one of Ger
many's leading ports, is 81 miles
up the Elbe from this city.
Cuxhaven, too, is a comparatively
new city. 1t was formed in 1773 by
the consolidation of two villages.
While naval operations are impor-
tant to it's $4,000 inhabitants, Cux-
haven also is popular seaside re-
sort where vacationists from Ham,
burg and other large population CEN
tiers of northern Germany enjoy the
stimulation of the cool waters of the
North sea. In normal times daily
sailings are made from this port to
Hamburg, Helgoland, and important
seacoast islands.

The Chinese army awards a
cash bonus, instead of stripes, to
its soldiers when they are injured,
privates getting $40, officers $40
and generals 500 for every wound.
Bank clerks, payroll carriers
and night watchmen may now call
for help during holdup, without
endangering their lives by an

sequins and boasts of snood (most
hats have either snoods or hustle

The stunning dress which you see

new and important hustle effect.
Rows of stirring make the detail

New textures, many of which are
sheer and dainty as chiffon, make
wool ali all-year-round fabric that
tunes to occasion perfectly. Then,
too, the fascinating color range pro-
vided in modern woolens has lot
to do with woods popularity. New
"old" fabrics like melton, duvetyn,
broadcloth, flannel, serge, wool ben
galine and ottoman vie with really
new weaves in sheer woolens. Even
tweeds are much lighter in weight
than they used to be.
Among new finds in the wool fab
ric realm, one of the most appeal
ing types is that of printed woods,
some of them done in hand-blocked
gorgeous forals, others in conven-
tional sports motifs. Metal-touched
woods, answer the call for fabric
elegance also. These are effective
for handsome evening jackets.

embroidered or needle-worked with

Then there is this matter of eve
ming clothes, the swank idea is to
make the long evening coat of hand
some wool. Young girls adore the
aoor-length coats tailored of bright
red tweed or duvetyn, quite un-

capes of handsome tweed in rich

the more mature.

outstanding this season. The dress

front shirrings, slit pockets and a
gold kid belt. The short snug jacket
has unusual buttons of clusters of
gold, colored beads with chain at
tachment. A two-strand gold bead
necklace, gold earrings and brace
