Pointing The Way

by VIM. Henry Huff AMP
The thing that makes me
overflow
With gladness and with Joy
Is when along the path | go
And meet a girl or boy
Who needs a friend to point
the way
That leads toward the goal
And ] to her or him can say
From deep within my soul:
This is the straight and
narrow road,
Stay in it to the end
And thus remove your
heavy load
This is the way. my friend" "

the use OF such poltroonery,

The War Isn't Won
Yet
(By Ruth Taylor

This war is not over yet,
and it is now apparent that
we have a long hard strug-
gle ahean. Silent are those
who a short time ago Whis-
pered that the war would
be over in six months.
What war? In the West
or in the East or in both ?
What did they mean by ov-
er? From what source did
this talk emanate? 1t be-
hooves us to query sharply
whom will it benefit to
slow down our all out eff
fort? Was not this another
piece of the Divide and
Conquer propaganda?
The armchair strategists
had it all figured out. Hit
Ter was going to collapse
because Of the internal
etrife in Germany. Instead
his armises forge ahead.
But after all will the fall
of Hitler end the war? Are
the German armies going to
lay down their arms and
throw themselves on the
m e roy Of t h 0 e whose
homes they have pillaged
and whose families they
h a ve m urd e r ed in cold
blood?
They settled the Eastern
question as well. Russia,
they said, would mop up ia
pan in two weeks, once Hit
Ter is done with. (The arm
chair strategists last De-
cember had it all figured
out then, too.) They ne
glect to look at the map
to gauge distances, to see
what tremendous area
the Japs now control, how
scattered and isolated are
! the forces Of the United
Nations. It would be advisa-
hle if we would study the
map well and ponder on
all that it signifies.
| The war over in six
months? What do tsey call
the whole question of sort
ing out nationalities, repat-
ration, policing, rebuilding
! that will have to be done II
We are to keep our word
about the four freedoms !?
! This time we cannot wash
our hands and turn away
We have not only given oul

NEARLY half the cases Of for

This also holds a lesson in pre-

A child can be trained not to
put small objects in its mouth.
Check the play yard for small
objects before allowing the baby

Do not rush for a child with a
foreign body in its mouth

object
Do not hold a child upside

The lesson is to keep small OBJ

dren.

is becoming widespread that
under these circumstances for

pected and examination insti-

The second terrible lesson of
the case is that the child held

imitation of its mother.

CAN'T TELL NEEDS

First, irrespective OF your goOc
intentions. you can't forecast ac-
curately in advance what you anC
your family will need during the
war period in the way OF medical
and dental care.
II you want To eliminate the
factor of uncertainty as To your
cost. you doubtless can make a
deal with your doctor or dentist
TO pay him in advance IL he vii
take care of your family on ar
annual basis.
Needing cash for taxes anc
other fixed charges. the medicc
will probably be eager to talk
business with you.
II you are in the lower income
brackets and haven't the funds
for such an arrangement. you
should provide your family with
disqualification and group medical
care.
II unable 10 finance private
medical service. then you should
use clinics but should not in any
circumstances defer necessary
medical and dental care for your
self and your dependents.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-03-28

With modern instruments and
skill 1t is possible TO remove
these foreign bodies with ease in
a way which would have been
impossible 80 years ago.
The astonishing thing about
the case and the great lesson
about all such accidents is that
the child had no idea whatever
that the safety pin had passed
into the CLOTHS.
There was no choking or gag
ging. 1t simply slid down past
the vocal cords and lodged in the
windpipe.
The modern general practi-
toner must be on the alert for
the symptoms of foreign bodies
in the bronchial tubes and be
able to make the diagnosis at an
early moment so that our mod
ern, effective treatment can be
instituted.
The first thing he should learn
Is that in about one-half the
cases there is no recollection as
to when the foreign body was
inhaled.
I KNEW a man who harbored
an atomizer tip in his
bronchial tube for nearly a year
and only by searching his men,
DRY could he remember that
there was a time when he dis
covered a tip missing from the

II you are in business in war

befriending the harassed average
citizen who is trying TO keep his
family going while paying stiff
taxes. buying defense bonds and
contributing to the various worthy

There will be n growing demand
for enterprises and services that

For, even though you and I can
save funds by not buying automo-
