Progressive Deafness Frequent in Families

there is predisposition to oto- Spongiosis in some families. The deafness is generally so insidious or slow in developing htat the phy- sieian sees nothing and the patient hears nothing"
 Whether tendency or predis- position to this type or progressive deafness is inherited or not, one theory of the nature and cause of otospongiosis is that it is due to faulty calcium meta bOlism How sound this theory may be, do not know. However, if I had otospong- iOsis I'd give myself the benefit of the doubt by following high calcium diet and exposing myself to sun- light at every opportunity and by supplementing my diet with a good ration of colcium mad yitamin D daily the year around
 The vitamin B treatment for pro- gressive catarrhal deafness is worth a few months trial even tho the condition is probably otospongiosis- take an optimal daily ration of vita min B complex for not less than twelve weeks-that is. at least three times as much as is required te maintain good nutrition.

In regard to your statement that all eyes are blue at birth. I wish to say that our child's eyes at birth were black. not a. all blue.

MCKINNEY ON BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY Americas Card Authority

Less than 20 years ago national bridge tournaments were unheard of. Today tournament bridge is in- creasing in popularity by leaps and bounds and the American Contract Bridge League is already planning an international tournament in 1948 Few authors have attempted to write about tournament or duplicate bridge However, there are some very interesting comparisons be- tween rubber and duplicate play Today's hand is an example.
 At rubber bridge South should allow West to play the hand at two hearts. He cannot expect to make a game when North is unable to bid Hence he can gain only part score by bidding, and if things go poorly he may be doubled and go down about 300 points
 At duplicate bridge, however South must reopen the bidding. He cannot afford to let the opponents score no when perhaps he can score that amount himself South must realize also that even if he does not

Horny Guticles Yield to Cream
BY ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

Horny cuticle around the toenail that ordinarily yields to nothing short of a chiropodist's drill will usually soften up and shred off with prolonged soakings in cold cream or oil.
 What brings this up are readers, foot-conscious now that shoes are more off than on, who ask how to spruce up neglected toenails
 Bandages on individual toes, used to confine the lubricant after it's applied will speed up the cuticle- softening job. Wrap up your toes at night, of course. You wouldn't want your feet to be seen on the beach sprouting bandages.
 If legs are marred by hackles- this is also a reader complaint-you can beautify their surface with lanolin creams, just as you can the skin on your face. There are also softening lotions that work right into the skin and leave no greasy reisdue on sheets, if you decide to beautify legs as we'll as thes over night.

STRAND

The story of how Open City" came to be produced is nearly as dramatic as the film itself, for it demonstrates the toughness and persistence of men up against in- surmountable obstacles,
 While the Germans still held Rome, two months before the Allies marched into the declared open city" Roberto Rosselini, Italian film producer, and a group of earnest film conspired to plan a motion picture which would be a dramatic record of what the Italians had endured under the Nazis.
 For weeks they worked. develop ing the scenario on hoarded scraps of paper, with bits of pencils and occasionally writing in invisible ink Behind barred doors, in cellars and attics, in ravines and hills back of Rome and caves along the Tiber, they plotted their film.
 Cameras were stolen from the Germans, frequently at the cost of Italian lives and finally, only the day when the Americans might ar- rive stood between these courageous movie-makers and their creative labor
 Soon after Rome was liberated, the producers and actors set to work. Without studio lights, shoot ing frequently when electricity was unohtainable, using old scraps of film, and working in a huge, old fashioned ballroom without per init, they produced Open City"
 Because of the pitiful lack of sets and the shortage of lighting equip ment, many of the scenes were shot outdoors.
 Wherever possible, the producer shot the sequences at or near the locale of the incidents portrayed in the picture This. of course lends exceptional realism to the story, giving audiences a feeling of actually being on the spot while the story unfolds on the screen.
 Essentially, Open City which is now at the Strand Theatre, is an exciting drama of Nazi manhunt The suspense derives in the traps ] set by the Gestapo to catch Rome's

many an American family washes down the drain. Fats are scarce everywhere We, as a nation, must be careful not to waste material, which in properly used would save human lives in some other country and add to comfort to our own, Remember your annual six tons of dishes.
 One Pound Helps
 Sixteen tabiespoonsful of used fat makes a pound, One pound of used cooking fat turned over to meat dealer helps relieve the shortage of industrial fats and frees enough soap fats to help make a box of packaged laundry soap, or six bars of laundry soap, or five bars of toilet soap.

Remember that in addition to dishes literally tons of clothes need washing every year-n1iles of wood work and linoleum must be scrubbed and it all takes mountains to soap Sit down and figure out the amount of soap and the amount of at required to keep your house. hold clean.
 Supplies Never Lower
 Supplies of edible and inedible fats and oils all over the world have never been as low as they are today. Fats and oils imports to the U. S are still only a shadow of their pre-war tonnage. The only tangible way to get more raw ma terials for soap making and other essentials is by turning in more used cooking fat.
 Continued conservation Of every drop of used cooking fat will pre- cent shorter supplies of soap. Ac- celebrated fat salvage-the skimmlng of soups, scraping of pans, render ing of raw and cooked fat-means improvement in soap supply, and slight easement in the household burden of six tons of dishes every wear

Six Tons of Dishes Washed
 In Average Home Annually

It has been calculated that every American housewife washes six tons of dishes every year. Add up the accumulation from 365 breakfasts, luncheons dinners and inbetween snacks and the total would fill six trucks, experts say.
 Staggering as the task of wash ing six tons of dishes sounds, imag- inc how much more impossible the job would be without soap, The prospect of soap-less life is not on the horizon, however, as long as housewives keep up their present rate of salvaging fat.
 Department of Agriculture au- thorities point out that If it had not been for salvaged fat in 1945' housewives would have had 13 per cent less soap Even so there are not enough industrial fats and oils available to meet the demand fol soaps and other goods the public wants.
 Help Yourself
 Every time you turn in pouio of fats to your meat dealer you are actually helping yourself and youl neighbors by relieving the shortage not only of soap but also of scarce items like table linen. draperies or coverings, even possible some more nylons
 Food experts too are urging fat conservation! Use and reuse every drop and ounce of beef, bacon anc even lamb fat when you're cookine that say. Then,when you've had al the food value of your fat. turn 1T the drippings and scrapings fol salvage

 As c war correspondent in Egypt, Chester Morrison, now narrator on WATR-ABCs Coronet Presents Chester Morrison, once was forced to turn himself into society repor- ter in order to get out the news that the Germans were at the gates of Cairo.
 Morrison was in Cairo when Rom mel was breathing down the neck of the ancient city, but British cen- sorship forbade any mention of the city's plight.
 It was then that Morrison used his ingenuity and his newspaper began receiving items clipped from the society column of the Cairo Daily Mail-items that blandly  stated that such-and-Such big wig was leaving town for vacation and that another Cairo millionaire also had decided to take his family for a trip to the country.
 The America newspaper caught on to the idea, and, thanks to Mor- rison, could intimate that Cairo was tottering
