ern doctor is alert to the posi-
bility of vitamin deficiency and he
pays particular attention to the
following signs which may indi-
cate vitamin deficiency:
Condition of Tongue
In the first place, he makes an
examination of the eyes to see
whether OF not there is any night
blindness. This Is perhaps the
best general test of vitamin de-
fciency, and if night blindness is
present it indicates that probably
a number of vitamlns are deficient
in the diet.
The condition of the tongue Is
very important. A rough, assured
or raw tongue is good evidence OF
vitamin deficiency. Ulcerations or
cracks around the lips are also
noted. The condition of the bones,
especially if there is any swelling
of the long bones toward the end;
whether there is any pain present
v e the bones, are especially val
liable signs in infants.
The condition of the skin itself
is an indication of vitamin de-
ticiency. If the skin is rough and
shows little plugs at the mouth of
the sweat glands which make it
look as if there we're goosef1esh,
this is considered to be an indica-
ton of vitamin deficiency. A gen
eral feeling of lassitude is noted,
and, in general, a feeling of well
being would indicate that the vita
min supply in the food is sufficient.
Dietary Habits
In trying to arrive at a dag
nosis, it is well to inquire into the
dietary habits of the individual
What kind of a cook is there in the
household? Does the cook cook
for one or several? A person liv-
ing alone and cooking his or her
own meals is much more likely to
use p~rocessed foods which do not
contain vitamins in large num-
hers. A housewife cooking for
several people, on the whole. is
likely to have a more balanced diet
containing q good quantity Of
vitamins.
The whole subject Of vitamins is
one which undoubtedly will be in
creasing in Importance within the
next few years. More and more

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
F. O.:-"Should a person suf-
fering from varicose veins do a lot
Of walking or rest as much as pos
sible? VIII rubbing the legs with
alcohol help in any way? If there
is a cure. what would be bcst?'
AnsWer-We have several times
in this column described the in
lection treatment of varicosc veins
which is very satisfactory. Walk
ing is harmful for varicose veins
before treatment but there is no
reason why people should limit
their activity on account Of vari-
cose veins when there is a salts
factory treatment, and certainly
no one should use so perfectly use
less a palliative as alcohol rubs in
the hope they are doing some good.
After the injection treatment is
completed, the varicose vein pa
tient can walk as much as he likes.

Clio GRANTED BARGAINING
RIGHTS in TIMBER FIGHT
Mine Timbers Move Again
From Western Maryland to
Mines in Vicinity of
UniOnt0wn, Pa.

A CIO union was granted exclusive
bargaining agency rights for 1000
workers supplying timber to South
western Pennsylvania coal mines, APP
parently insuring peace in lengthy
controversy which flared into a six
teen-day strike of a number Of
truckers recently and a sympathy
movement that closed down six
mines employing $3.50 miners in the
UniontoWn area.
The Tri-State Lumbermen's Asso-
citation, whose members employ most
of the workers, agreed to scrap u
contract made last week with the in
dependent tri-state truckers and
umberman's union and deal instead
with the CLIO. Pending negotiations
for a wage scale the timber work
ers continued to deliver badly needed
posts to the mines.
The Independent group delivered
some posts but the mine workers in
six mines refused to handle what
they termed ''non-union" posts. Much
Of the timber comes from Western
Maryland and West Virginia, as well
as Pennsylvania.
+ During the trouble Joseph YabIon-
ski, q, of California, Pa, a CLIO or

near Oakland, were placed in the

erty in the vicinity Of Addison. Both
were later released under special
$4,000 bond for each. The bond, with
a special peace clause attached, was
ordered by Judge Norman T. Boose

DIARY OF The WAR

Russian armies were in
violent action on three major fronts.
Nazis insisted that Kiev, in the
Ukraine had been encircled. Nazis in
sisted that four million Russians had
been killed or captured and denied
their own losses had been a million.
Britain declared she would give mil
italy aid to Thailand in case Of at
tack by Japan. Australia was de-
clared impatient and wanted London
to take a stronger attitude in the
Pacific. British followed up night at
tacks with daylight raids on airdromes
and shipping. Bruno MuSsolini, son of
the Italian Premier, was killed in a
crash of an air ship.
SATURDAY-Germans claimed to
have reached 1875 miles south of Kiev
and also claimed two Red armies had
been wiped out. Nazis were trying to
isolate Odessa on the Black Sea. Red
planes bombed Berlin. Vichy estimated
Germans had lost 100000 men and
the Russians two million In Far East
Thailand was still undecided where
she would cast her lot. United States
travellers declared British were keep
ing the Suez Canal open in spite Of
Nazi raids.
SUNDAY - A Vichy-Reich war
pact was seen imminent Doubled air
blows by Britain and Russia were fore
cast against Reich. British bombed
Kiel and Hamburg and swept the Chan
mel coast Russians bombed Berlin. A
report told Of 1873 ships sunk in 101
weeks Of war. Germans reported posi-
ton Of Russian armies in Ukraine as
untenable but admitted Russians were
still pouring men into the lines. Reds
claimed rout of ten divisions Of Nazis
or $4,000 men in losses.
MONDAY-Japanese were about to
embark actively with Germans in seiz-
ure of all points governing ocean traf-
fc by disregarding warnings of the
United States and England. A diplo-
matte break between Vichv and Wash
ington was likelv as Vichv prepared to
