In Figaro

To Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Steele, 451
Hamilton avenue. the coming con-
cert, the opera, The Marriage of
Figaro, which will be given Thurs

him in the role of BaSilio
Another we'll known singer to the

Vera Weikel as Cherubino, with
Robert Stuart and Max Wollmer in
the other leading roles.
David Otto is the narrator, who,
in the manner of the narrator in
Our Town" supplies the back
ground and the commentary on the
play, enabling the Nine O'Clock
Opera Co. to present a condensed
version of this lyric of Mozarts oper-
as.
Figaro" is done in English and
in modern dress and the whole pre-
sentation has a freshness and VerVe
that makes the performance a con-
tinuous pleasure for the audience.

AdrenaLin Relieves
Hiqh Blood Pressure

A discovery that adrenalin, the hui
man body's quick fighting hormone, is
easily converted into an antidote for
high blood pressure, has been report
ed to the American chemical society.
The reports were by Doctors K. A.
Oster and Harry Sobotka, Mt. Sinai
hospital, New York. Adrenalin comes
from the adrenal glands. During fear,
anger, fighting or anything requiring
quick energy, the hormone is released
into the blood 1t not only raises energy
but increases blood pressure tempo
rarily.
An easy chemical reaction turns this
adrenalin, in test tubes, into a dark,
red powder known as adrenochrome.
The latter reduces high blood pres
sure. This ability has been overlooked
by other Investigators who tried the
red powder only on normal blood pres
sure. 1t has no effect on normal pres
sure.
It is not in the least poisonous. It
can be synthesized. A present draw
back is difficulty to make it keep long.
The Mt Sinai experiments were done
on dogs and rats. Dogs blood pres
sures are similar to humans. Dogs
dropped from pressures of 100 down to
120. normal, in to "a hours.

FORD OPPOSES
ONBONDS

Gov Sam c. Ford has gone on record
as opposing a bill pending in congress
which would tax income from future
issues of state and municipal bonds.
In letter to all three members Of
Montana's congressional delegation,
Gov. Ford said:
ut appears to me that the defeat of
this proposal is extremely important
to all state and local governments.
"In support Of the idea the treasury
department advances the claim that
wealthy investors now receive tax-free
income. But you will note that the
present proposal Is not directed to out
standing issues, but covers future is
sues only.
ITO be frank, the proposal appears
to me to have no relationship what
ever to revenues for the federal
treasury, but appears to be simply a
grasping for more power by attempt
ing to control state and local finance
"It is my firm conviction that this
is not the proper time to resurrect
this highly controversial and irritating
issue, inasmuch as all state and local
governments are doing everything pos
sible to aid the prosecution of the war
Taxing the income from state and
municipal bonds will necessarily result
in greater interest rates on such bonds,
which must be paid by the local tax
payers or the users of the local utili-
ties financed by such bonds"

Montana Mare Helps
to Blot Out Hitler

In Montana today there's a 6-year-
old grey mare that's helping defeat
Hitler.
The evidence came to national head
quarters of Russian war relief, New
York city, in the form of a check for
s5490 from the Joe NJ Finley Com
nilsson Co., Lewistown, forwarded by
Evan w. Hall, Lewistown, agricultural
agent of the Chicago, Milwaukee, st.
Paul & Pacific railroad.
Hall wrote that the check repre-
sented the sale price of the mare,
placed on public auction on Sept. "a
for the benefit of the Russian war re-
lief fund for medical supplies for the
Soviet people.
The money will be used Immediately
for purchase of two surgical instru-
ment sterilizers for Russian army

Clyde G. White of Helena has re-

leading Canadian forces in the Com

year on recruiting duty in Canada.
He had been a member of the Can

Lecturer Says y. S.
Will Make Good Use
Of Alaska in War

Alaska is the key to the Pacific, and
the United States will make excellent
use of its strategic position in defeat
ing Japan, William Darden, Alaskan
naturalist told several hundred per-
sons at Helena recently.
Darden said he believed Japan would
be defeated and that the United States
would maintain control Of Alaska but
he pointed out that Japan could only
be defeated at home and that Alaska
furnished the best jumping off place
for the attack. He said our soldiers
stationed at Fort Lewis are closer to
Japan than are the troops in Australia.
He quoted the late Gen. Billy Nit
chell, famous advocate of airpower,
and the late Homer Lea, military
authority, concerning Alaska's i'm
portance Mitchell had said the Japs
would capture Alaska and march down
the coast to the United States unless
America had a strong airforce in
Alaska. Lea had said the nation which
held Alaska, Pearl Harbor and Tahiti
would rule the Pacific.
Colored motion pictures, taken by
Darden, showed various phases Of
Alaskan life, illustrating the POSSIBLE
tty of development there.

WARTIME FLU"
AGAIN APPEARS
IN SOME AREAS
AMERICANS CAUTIONED NOT TO
DISREGARD COLDS: TROUBLE
FOLLOWS NEGLECT

A peculiar wartime pneumonia, OBJ
served in 1868, is again appearing
in various parts of the United States
AS 1t usually starts under the dis
guise of a chest cold or intestinal
FLU" Americans must take better care
than ever before of these ailments dur
ing the coming winter, says the medi-
cal department of Northwestern Ma
tional Life Insurance Co.
This newly resurging form of pneu-
monia is comparatively mild in its
early stages. If promptly and properly
treated, it usually clears up without
serious trouble-unlike its better known
and deadly comrade Of old World war
days, the epidemic influenza But if
neglected, complications set in and it
becomes as dangerous to life as any
other form of pneumonia. The bug"
which is thought responsible for it
has never been isolated but the disease
is now being widely studied and
closely watched by medical research
groups as well as by national pneu-
monia commission.
1t commonly starts without any sore
throat, high temperature, chest pains,
or other standard pneumonia warm
develops out of, either an ordinary
chest cold or intestinal FLU" Some
times it starts simply with extreme
Weakness sudden utterly exhausted
feeling. The x-ray gives the only GER
tain diagnosis of this type Of pneu-
monia, which seems TO be associated
with the movement of large masses of
people.
The insurance company's warning
sums up the surest precautions for
the average person in the phrase baby
cold and dodge pneumonia" and
gives directions for simple home safety
measures. With any heavy cold, par
ticularly if in the chest, put the pa
tent to bed and keep him warm. If
he has cough keep others away from
him, except the person caring for him,
and she should avoid getting the
patients breath in any case. If fever
ish or thirsty, he can have water and
fruit juices as desired. If there are no
stomach or abdominal pains, he can
eat lightly. If he should have sharp
pains in the chest or feeling of full
ness there, get doctor as soon as
possible; meanwhile keep the patient
warm and quiet with hot water bottle
or heating pad on chest or back. Do
not leave patient asleep on an electric
heating pad; bad burns sometimes re-
suit in this way.
Don't try to be hero" and carry
on as usual with a heavy cold, the
warning concludes. You will get more
work done in the critical winter ahead
if you take prompt care of cold, even
little one.
