Squash
By LILLIAN cox ATHEY.

Actually, pumpkins and squashes
comprise a single group of warm
season. frost-sensitive plants. The
American Indians gave its name
the squash; that is, they applied the
name to various members Of the
genus Curcurbita, but not because
Of their shape.
Squash, pumpkins and sweet po-
tatoes belong to the golden vege-
table group, and they have yitamins
we need. We are quite familiar
with the pumpkin as a most delect-
able filling for pies. The sweet po-
tato also is quite favorite, but we
still have to become better ac-
quainted with the squashes-winter
or summer ones, 1t matters not
which, so long as we add them to
our diet.
When cooked, pumpkins and
squash are excellent vegetables.
They are very acceptable to stock
as food; indeed. they are considered
important items in the diet for cat
tie and swine.
In Europe, the large varieties of
Curcurbita maxina are known as
pumpkins, while in America the
fruits of this species are known as
squashes. Here in the United States
the words pumpkin" and squash"
are almost always applied in an in
different fashion, and interchange
ably.
Squashes are really gourds grow
ing on a vine much like our orna-
mental gourds that are such a fad
today. They are tender herbs culti-
waited for their edible fruits.
Squash are very easy to grow, if
you give them warm, quick soil.
They are long-season plants lex
cept the bush variety and should
not be planted where they are likely
to be caught by the frost before
they are fully matured. The only
way to overcome this handicap

OF America in return therefor should
be deferred until the extent Of the
defense aid is known and until the
progress Of events makes clearer

benefits which will be in the mutual
interests Of the United States Of
America and the United Kingdom
and will promote the establishment
and maintenance Of world peace;

long as the plant is kept free from
weeds and the surface Is worked to
keep the soil from packing, it will

Insects are fond Of squash leaves,
especially the striped cucumber
beetle, a well-known destroyer Of
the tender plants. Give your help

NAVY CONVERTS \ SIDEWHEELER
 INTO CARRIER

Buffalo, N. F.. Aug. 20 CUP)- The first sidewheeIer- aircraft car rier in the world is almost ready for service.
 The unique plane carrier is the former queen of Great Lakes pas senger ships, the s. s. Seeandbee. Reconstruction work has been un- derway since May q: smoke stacks. superstructure and decks have been removed and replaced witha land ing deck.
 Later this month, the 29-year- old vessel-once one of the largest passenger vessels exclusively ir cruise service - will clear Buffalo harbor for service somewhere on the Great Lakes"
 It. Comdr. Edward A. Eisele, U. s. N., supervisor of shipbuilding at the dock, said the vessel is a vitally- needed unit in the war program. He emphasized that the ship is not being converted to protect Great Lakes shipping, but to give Navy pilots training in landing and talk ing of from an aircraft carrier be- fore being assigned to the fleet.
 With the Lexington lost and the Yorktown damaged, the need of an aircraft training ship becomes ap- parent" Commander Eisele said. Plight deck conditions can be duplicated on the Seeandbee, which will be the only training ship of it's kind in the country. The vessel is larger than some aircraft carriers, smaller than others-just about average size" he added
 Meanwhile, another lake passen- ger vessel Is being converted into an aircraft carrier after being taken over by the Navy. The vessel, Greater Buffalo, recently made it's last passenger trip. The Greater Buffalo is longer by 35 feet than the Seeandbee.

DOCTORS VERIFY
 NURSE KENNY'S SPASM THEORY
nv wTILTAna ngcATENAAGIN

Limited Press Stan COFreSpondenD Chicago, Aug. l6 = tU.P) -- A nine-year fight by an Australian nurse for fol3nai recognition by the medical profession of her revolu- tionary treatment of infantile par aIvsis has resulted in verification of her theories in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
 Two specialists appointed by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis verified the contention of Nurse Elizabeth Kenny of Australia that muscle spasm is Q damaging and ever present symptom of the disease.
 DTS. R. Plato Schwartz and Harry D. Bouman of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. Rochester, N. Y.. revealed the results of their re- search in an article on muscular spasm in infantile paralysis pub nshed in the journal.
 Kenny Exercises Parts
 Miss Kenny opposed the tradi- tional method of immobilization Of patients under treatment for polio- myelitis during its acute state. Her new method consisted of applying moist heat and starting gentle ex- ercise of the affected parts.
 She contended this method com bated pain, stiffness, deformities and minimized the degree of par alysis. She encountered consider able success and drew widespread recognition outside the medical profession.
 Physicians usually used splintS and other devices to prevent move ment of arms, legs and other af- fected parts.
 But the Australian nurse con- tended this only increased the pain and damage of the muscular spasms that resulted from the dis ease. The term muscle spasm" denotes 8 group of symptoms in- cluding twitchings. excessive irri- liability of the muscle to stretching and a more or less continuous state of contraction of the muscle flores.
 Tester Contraction
 Dr. Schwartz and pr. Bouman used a special electric device to test the degree of contraction of the muscles of infantile paralysis victims in comparison to those sui fering from spactic paralysis and normal persons.
 They found the spasm of the muscle of an infantile paralysis victim can be stronger than the voluntary contraction of the mus cle, that 1t is of a reflex nature and it decreases through treatment as the strength of the voluntary contraction increases.
 Nurse Kenny's treatment con- tradicted a point of view estab- lished by 150 years of work by the medical profession. Her textbook. "The Treatment of Infantile Par alysis in the Acute Stage" begins with the statement:
 Since the year 1883, I have been endeavoring to present to the medical world the fact that spasm is a damaging and ever present symptom of the disease infantiie paralysis
 First accounts in medical his- tories of the disease were given by Michael Underwood in 1784. Be cause of its epidemic characteris- tics 1t is common to all countries and has become more prevalent m the last 50 years.
