NJ. T.: "Please tell me what is TO
be eaten for govt and what will cure
it."
Answer-The classical diet for
govt is to avoid purin-containlng
foods. This means, particularly,
liver, kidneys, sweetbreads and red
meats in general. A low fat diet
also has been tried with some sue
cess. However, there is no absolute
certainty that any diet will prevent
govt. Attacks are liable to occur
under any regime.

brate Race Relations
Day Yesterday

The local corps Of the Salvation
Army participated yesterday in the
observance of Scout Week as well
as Race Relations Sunday.
At the young peoples legion meet
ing last night several members of
the Army's Troop No. 80 re-dedicated
themselves to the principles of
Scouting as expressed in the Scout
oath, under the direction of Scout
master Frank Duren. Scouts Charles
Brownen and Walter Magnavice had
part in the evenings program and
Adpuaant Hugo Wiberg spoke to the
Scouts assembled on the Bible char
acter King David, Let no mans
heart fail because Of him; thy SER
want will go and fight with this
Philistine'."
Adjutant Wiberg pointed out that
David was scout in a very real
sense, and that the historic encoun-
ter between David and Goliath was
symbolical of the heroic struggle of
youth against the oppression and
domination of age, courage against
brute strength, idealism against ma
terialism, unselfishness against sell
fishness and goodness against evil.
ScoutmaSter Frank Duren was
Charles Rietdyke's guest on the
Armys weekly radio-program last
night. Seven Of the Scouts of Troop
No. 80 participated in this radio-pro-
gram and ScoutmaSter Duren told
something about the progress made
by the Troop during the past year.
Tonight Adjutant Wiberg will be
in Hartford for an officers reunion
and council under the leadership of
Major A. Edgar Arkett, divisional
officer.
