INSURANCE 100000

In 1885, when the disqualification
insurance idea first started there
were 5000 participants. Today
there are over 100000 people
tied up with one of these plans
all paying premiums each year so
that, in case of an emergency, they
can be assured of proper hospital
care without pig outlay of money.
With so many people participa
ting in this new form of security,
many who would normally try ev-
erything else before giving in to
going to a hospital, will now go
with little hesitation They have
found that it is considerably
cheaper to get proper care in
hospital than to arrange for often
inadequate care at home
1t is undoubtedly true that good
cope who had post
poned doing anything about an OPP
Grafton they knew they would
eventually have to have, are now
taking advantage of the hospitali-
zation insurance to go ahead with
it. Others are going to hospitals
for sicknesses which, in the past,
would never have been thought of
as hospital cases.
Some are even taking advantage
of specialization insurance in Or
der to get a much needed rest. BY
getting a doctor to send them to a
hospital for observation" or ply
sical checkups, these people spend
a few days in comfortable bed,
with good food, fine service and all
the comforts of life, without having
to pay a red cent.
Such a use of hospital facilities
is, Of course, not the purpose of
the insurance, but these cases en-
phasize the changing attitude to-
ward hospitals. Those who used to
dread the thought of being sent to
a hospital are gradually coming
around to the point when they al
most welcome the opportunity.
GROWTH postwar
There is no reason to think that
there will be any let-up in the de-
mand for hospital beds after the
war. For today, health records
show, the amount of sickness is
less than normal, yet the facilities
of hospitals are taxed beyond
capacity.

START NOW

Yesterday is gone, and tomor.
ro,O may never come. Today is
the time to begin. If you have
been delaying and e1cusing your
self for a long time about doing
something you should - buying
bonds, or rolling bandages, or
saving fats-right no,o is the time
to start. Don't bother ,Uith regrets
ouer the past. Don't make gran.
dose plans for the distant future.
Act today. This is Miss Norris
aduice to tUomen on the home
front.
Even in a seriously compli-
Gated domestic situation, as in the
case outlined in this article, the
only sensible thing to do is to
start over as ,UeH as possible. A
young ,Uite Of a naval officer has
been carrying on an affair ,Uith a
middle-aged major. There ,oas

that her husband, Archie, is re-
turning from service, almost

now seems to her insanity she and
the major met at various times and
places and carried on a secret af-
fair. He has now gone to Africa, and
her hope is that she will never see
or hear from him again. Her shame
over this episode is equalled only by
her fear that Archie will end their
marriage, always so happy and har-
monious, and take her child away
from her.
Archie is Coming Home.
Now comes the news that Archie
is on his way home, almost blind,
and that his mother, recently wild
owed, is about to join the family
with her young adopted English son,
one of the babies who was evacu-
ated six years ago. Alice writes me
in complete distress; must she tell
Archie, and how to handle the long
deception if she doesn't.
Well, my advice would be to pick
up this complicated problem and
work it out as if there was no secret
to hide-from today on. We're all
going to have to forget a lot of ev-
erything if this world is to be re-
built. With an almost-blind husband,
probably studying for an entirely
new profession, mother-in-law, a
small daughter, an English boy,

her hands full. If she will 60 straight

him to blot out the cruel years that
have so SCARED him, and create
a perfect life together-from today
on.

Prof Found Remarks Had
Impressed His Students

At a southwestern university, it
is an old custom that if the profess
SCR is more than 10 minutes late,
the class may walk out. Knowing
that he would be delayed one
morning, a professor dashed into
the room early, dropped his hat on
the desk, and disappeared on his
errand. When he came in some IS
minutes later, the students had
gone.
The next day he prefaced his
remarks to the effect that the
presence of his hat meant as
much as if he himself were pres
ent.
On the following day he arrived
to find row after row of seats &C.
cupied only by hats.

Sources of Vitamin C

Tomatoes and oranges-both rath-
er scarce at present-are not the
only source of vitamin c. Fresh raw
cabbage and turnips have been
found to be just as rich as citrous
fruits and tomatoes. The buffalo
berry of North Dakota is outstand-
ing in content of this vitamin, while
good guava powder is phenomenal
ly rich, with 8 per cent. The Rus
slams and British have made a Jam
from rose hips. A Russian nut con-
tanning per cent is being utilized
also.

Chance for Fresh Start.
Some lives are spent in this sort
of useless regretting. But the smart
woman eventually learns that what
ever the mistakes and omissions of
the past, there is always today.
Today may be the beginning of the
new time-the time of quiet accom-
plishment, friendship, study, saw
ing, building.
Il don't write him half often
enough" says the busy woman in
the market. She is deciding between
frankfurters, salmon, or curried

hustle and gossip and morning

gets him again. To son or husband
she is apt to write often, but this
man is her nephew, or friends
son, or the casual Christmas guest
who begged so wistfully for an &C.
casional letter.
So she doesn't write, and perhaps
presently learns that the chance
as far as that particular sailor is
concerned, is gone.
What we ought to remember is
that today is as powerful, as filled
with opportunity, as any yesterday
was, and that few months con-
centration on the saving, the diet,
the child, the foreign language, is
still in our power.

aged and at the bottom of the trough,
not to make decisions at night, when
fatigue and WEAKNESS are heavy
upon me. say to myself, then,
''Well, things are pretty black. But
I'll get good nights sleep and see
how they are in the morning." Thus,
in the morning and with my vitality
at its full, I'm able to cope with stu
.ations that, the night before, had all
but done for me.
I do not know exactly when, or
how, I got the following idea, but I
do know it has helped me in under
standing people and in getting along
with them: And that is every per-
son wants to be considered impor-
tant. Sometimes I think this one of
the deepest cravings planted in hui
man being. Once I got this idea, I
could see it working itseH out in a
thousand ways. learned to let the
other person exert his desire to be
considered important and to sup
press my own. I made the other
person the star of the show and
talked about him and his desires
and his views, and said little about
my own. The effect was almost mi
raculous, for no one in the world
can resist the appeal of being the
center of attention. 1t comes to me
easily to make the other person the
hero, for his adventures and his
views interest me tremendously; my
own are an old story.
I have learned to be considerate of
people, for life has taught me that
most people, most of the time, are
discouraged and carry on their
shoulders whole bag of troubles I
can't see. Along with this have
discovered how deeply people want
praise. And how much good it does
them. And so I have learned to
give praise more readily than I did
during my younger years. When I
saw somebody, then, who deserved
praise, took it as a matter Of
course and said nothing; now I am
more generous with my approval.
But it must be honest approval, or
otherwise I would not be deceitful
enough to give it. Nor would it be
worth receiving. Sometimes it goes
straight to my heart to see what
wonders bit of praise will accom-
plish.
Another lesson I learned is that one
must not be too sensitive a soul.
In my early days I was constantly
receiving rebuffs and arrow pricks-
some imagined, some deliberate.
But as the years went by, I dis
covered that to live successfully, I
must learn not to be so easily
wounded. I did learn it, and now
arrows glance off that used to draw
blood.
Another is the matter of fear. In
my younger days I suffered greatly
from fear. Mostly it was fear of
the unknown. I could cope with the
troubles that were upon me, but was
apprehensive about those that might
come. One day came upon a quo
tation at the bottom of a newspaper
column, a "fller." 1t was from EN-
erson: "Do the thing you fear to
do and the death of fear is GER
tain" l must have seen the quota
ton before, but if had it had made
no impression on me. Or my mind
wasn't ripe for it. Now, in a kind of
binding flash, l realized the truth of
those few words. And I began to try
to put it into practice. have not
eliminated all fear, but that one SIM
pie idea has been of great help.

THE PERISCOPE
By sARUNAS.

IN HIS RECENT address Prime
Minister Churchill said he has
brought back an impression from
the Crimean conference that "Sta-
lin and other Soviet leaders wish
to live in honorable friendship and
equity with the Western democra
cies". The Russian Soviet Govern
ment, according to Mr.. Churchill,
is so strong on its given word that
mo government stands. on its OBJ
legations more solidly than the
Russian Soviet Government.
The I.ithuanians, the Latvians,
the Estonians (and the Poles) could
name many instances where the
word of the Soviet Government is
no more solid than the kaiser's
"scrap of paper.
VIM. PHILIP SIMMS, in his col
umn, compares the international
conference at Mexico City with the
conference at Yalta. He says, the
conference in Mexico City was "a
model of democracy in action It
pledged itself to respect the in
! dividuality and independence of
| other members of the international
community.

other hand, showed no respect for
the individuality and independence
even of some of our allies, like
Poland. 1t was strangely silent
about Lthuania, Latvia and Esto-
| MIA, whose liberties were suppress
sed by Russian predatory activi-
ties" and devious means.
MR.. K. BALTRAMAITIS of Eli
zabeth, N. j., has published list
of 312 Lithuanian Americans who
attained officers rank in the armed
forces of the United States. This
is by no means a complete list.
About 26 of them have already
laid down their lives for their coun-
try, according to Baltramaitis' in

POLES of New York City are
making plans to transfer the statue
of King Wladyslaw Jagiello from
Flushing Meadow Park to Central
Park and unveil it on July Is, the
anniversary of the battle of Tan
nenberg (GruenwalO. This statue
stood in the Polish Pavilion during
the Worlds Fair.
All these ceremonies will remind
the Lithuanians of what they gave
to the Polish nation, since Jagiello
was a Lithuanian Grand Duke, and
the Tannenberg battle was mainly
a Lithuanian affair, conducted by
Jagiello's cousin Vytautas, Grand
Duke of Lithuania.

flee his native Lithuania during the
