Check Now for Rickets,
Springs Great Disease

sweating around the head, are sig
nifcant. If the child's pillow is wet
in the morning, it means something.
The sweating attacks recur during
sleep, and sometimes to gain relief
the child kicks off the bed clothes
and catches cold.
The rickety child is tender. Il
am speaking now of the early stages
of rickets.) The bones have not
grown properly and lifting or
changing position may cause cry
ing spell and a reaction of irrita-
ton out of all proportion to the
amount of disturbance.
Late Stage Symptoms
Of course, in the later stages,
when you have a fully developed
case, the diagnosis is easy. The
child looks pale, the eyes protrude
and the whites are chalky white.
The abdomen is distended and the
chest shows the series of enlarge
ments at the junction of the ribs
and the rib cartilages known as the
"rachitic rosary" The spine may
show a curvature and the breast
bone sticks outward.
Treatment should be based upon
the liberal use of properly stand
ardized cod-liver oil. BY properly
standardized" is meant cod-liver oil
which meets the standards of the
U. S. Pharmacopeia. There should
be exposure to sunshine and fresh
air. The child should not be allowed
to walk or crawl until it is certain
that the bones are strong enough
and that deformities will not re.
suit. Besides this, plenty of good
food of all varieties, fresh in char
acter, should be administered.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

R. H. w.: "What is the effect OF
the excessive use of tobacco on the
health of a 50-year-old man? I have
been chewing tobacco for IS years
and am seldom without it during my
waking hours"
Answer do not believe that it
has ever been proved that tobacco
causes any organic disease in the
body, but undoubtedly it has a bad
functional effect on the secretions
of the stomach and of the move
ments of the intestine and on the
digestive system generally. 1t may
also have bad effect on the eyes.
If any high blood pressure is pres.
ent, it raises that slightly and will
bring on attacks of pain in the
heart. From your description your
use of it is undoubtedly excessive.
As a further piece of advice, it is .
habit that, according to my expert
ence, is very easy to stop.

I. M. G.: as it injurious to a

Answer There is no harm in the
superstitious sense of sapping tho
younger ones strength. That is .
survival of witchcraft. Snoring, bad
breath, restlessness and cold feet

physical consequences Of this situa-

strength of Democracy in these
troubled times.
It is suggested that at these meet
ings, funds could be raised by charg-

amount to the price of banquet or
luncheon tickets, or by taking up
collection. The national organization

BIG CROWD AT
KIDS CIRCUS
Annual Playground Event
Puts C0lOrful Finale
on Season

A crowd, which overlooked the
oleacher seats at Hamilton park,
filled the porch Of the pavilion, and
sat or stood around in advantageous
positions, yesterday enjoyed the an
tics OF the 300 children who per-
formed for their benefit in the an
nual playground circus. The long,
awaited spectacle was colorful and
an enjoyable one, and the perform
ers most ardent in their attempts
to make the show success.
The average spectator was prob
ably surprised at the amount of
work which obviously had gone into
the preparations for the perform
anoe. The participants had been
well rehearsed, and their costumes
were quite elaborate in some cases.
The children's enthusiasm made
the performance most enjoyable, for
them, and for the many in the
audience. The program got under
way with a parade onto the field,
in the accepted circus fashion, and
the WPA band, which performed
valiantly all afternoon, officially
launched htingS with rendition Of
1.-THE Star-Spangled Banner"
Then, in rapid succession, there
pranced forth to do their part in
the extravaganza. elephants, Span
iards, gymnasts, gypsies, clowns, In
dians. ponies, cowboys and cowgirls,
and hula dancers. A fat lady,
strong man, Tarzantua, Siamese
twins, the wild man. from Borneo,
and other freak attractions were al
so much in evidence. In evidence al
so was William j. Derwin, who
master minded the entire perform
ance, with the assistance of a. de-
tachment of supervisors.
The proceedings were halted for
a short time, while John Guerrero
played TAPS, in memory of the
three boys who were killed by light
ming during recent storm at Wash
ington Park. One of the boys,
George Holmes, was an employe
of the park department. as assistant
supervisor at the Washington Park
playground.
Among those attending the circus
were James j. Curtin. superinten-
dent of parks: william Cass. as
Sistant superintendent: and William
Donohue, recreation commissioner
from Torrington. A police detail
was also on hand for the occasion.
About 1000 persons attended the
block dance at the park in the
evening, with music furnished BY
the WPA band. directed by Michael
Lange.
