Change Of Life

The menopauSe or, in common
parlance, the change of life would
also appear to the superficial and
inexperienced as easy TO diagnose
and to treat. After all half the
human race who live long enough
have experienced tat least half;
i have known some raging male
changes of life. But in practice
again it is not always so simple.
For women the worst period is be-
fore it happens - the dread, the
horror stories that kind neighbors
are always telling. And here the
medical profession can give you q
few words Of comfort.
First, the worst things in life do
not happen. Sixty-hve to So per
cent of women 60 through the
menopause without symptoms suf-
ficiently severe TO interfere either
with their normal mode of life or
even their equanimity.
Second, the ovaries continue 10

fects Of the menopause are over.

50 common. The problems of the
menopause aiflict at least half the
population. Some form of thyroid
gland trouble affects about 10 per
cent Of the population at some
time in their lives.
The thyroid gland pours an in
ternal secretion directly into the
blood stream, not through a duct
into a body cavity (as, for in
stance, do the salivary glands)
which is why it is called duct
less gland. This secretion Is very
necessary for normal living, is a
general regulator which. controls
the body temperature, the utiliza-
ton of food, and the destruction
of waste tissue, the activity Of the
mind, body weight, muscular
toaus, digestive efficiency, etc.
Disorders of Thyroid
The frank disorders Of the thy
roid are very easy TO recognize.
One is so-called eXophthalmic goi-
tor where the eyes protrude, the
muscles tremble, the heart beats
fast and the thyroid gland in the
neck can be seen to be enlarged.
This condition is caused baslcally
by an over-abundance of the Sc
erection of the gland. The other
disorder due to lack of the secre-
ton appears in two somewhat diff
ferent forms in infancy and
childhood, resulting in a mentally
sluggish and overweight child, of
peculiar bodily proportions, and
in middle-aged people increase in
weight, thickening of the skin and
mental sluggishness.
But the conditions do not always
appear in such clear cut forms.
Thyroid trouble may also appear
under the mask of (D heart trou-
BILE palpitation and anginal
pains; (2) indigestion, flatulence
and constipation; go arthritis
with vague aches, and "a female
disorders from artificial memo
pause to sterility.
We have an exact laboratory
method of telling whether the thy
roid is secreting too much or too
little. Treatment is theoretically
very simple-give thyroid extract
IL there is too little secretion and
reduce the thyroid activity by x
ray or surgery if there is too
much. But in practical experience
ut is more complicated and the
management of any kind of thy
roid disorder requires the utmost

and tact on the part Of physician.

TT TOOK CUTS to discover this country
L in the first place. Cuts to settle it.
Cuts to push back the wilderness,

savage hate.
1t took CUTS to talk back to king, to
fight his armies, to set up ration and
60 it on our own.
1t took CUTS to carry on despite panics,
foods, fires, civil war But we did it.
And we built the richest, healthiest,
freest, best-fed, best-educated nation in
al history.
Then came the Big Depression. And we
forgot all about CUTS. We became timid
and afraid. We thought we might better
entrust our destiny to government
government that couldn't give US
dime more than we gave it.
Then we got into war. And back came
our CUTS At Pearl Harbor, Guadalcanal,
Tarawa, Salerno. On the beaches of
Normandy.
Back they came in shpyards all along
TIE coast and a thousand miles inside
our borders. At plane plants, tank
pants, factories, machine shops, hastily
constructed workshops everywhere.
We proved once again that we can

any country in the world. And with the
return of our CUTS we began to notice
lot of other things. We found that
government and business could actually
work together. That labor and manage

had at variance. That all the various

tunity for all aren't every bit as worthy
of our blood and our steel as the Japs
and Nazis. The rebirth of our creative
spirit, of invention, of discovery, of
incredibly increased productivity, can
give us life of abundance such as no
people on earth-including ourselves
has ever seen.
X X X
Right now we have the greatest produc-
tive capacity in all history. Much of it
was built for war-and will have to be
rebuilt for peace.
In rebuilding it, however, we must
take steps to make sure we will be able
to buy all the many things that our
factories and farms will produce.
And that can be done. Not through
government handouts = which result
only in more and more debt. But by
using our productive capacity to pro-
vide us with more for our money in the
things we buy, so that we can buy more
and thus create more jobs and more
earnings for all.
In short, by making full use of this
country's limitless energy and ambition,
we can help lead the world into an era
of peace and plenty greater than any
yet seen.
Two things are necessary to realize
this opportunity. One is a liberal, for
ward-thinking policy on the part of busi-
ness. The other is public cooperation.
Business is pledged to do it's part
first, by increasing the opportunities
for all to earn and, second, by increasing
the opportunities for all to buy.
To increase the opportunities for all to
earn, business pledges just and enlight-
ened wage policy, and the opening of
every possible avenue of advancement
for the worker.
