When Should
School
.Open in Fall?
By GARRY CLEVELAND MYERS, PAD.

ATTENDANCE at Sunday school
and church dwindles during the
summer. especially in the towns and
cities. Many Protestant churches
are closed for few weeks during
summer.
We have a curious way of paral-
telling Sunday school and church
vacation with school vacation. 1t is
chiefly psychological, hardly logical.
Suggests Vacation
Curiously enough, we Protestants
have in June a kind of graduating
exercise for our children in Sunday
school, known generally as "Chil-
dren's Day." This exercise suggests
that Sunday school vacation has
begun, to last till September.
In the fall it takes several weeks
for the family to get going again.
Instead of starting off with 4 bang
when the public schools open We
wait few weeks and have Orally
Day." Its purpose is to set going
the Sunday school till next June.
There is no good reason but human
inertia that / can see, why children
should not go back to Sunday school
for regular attendance when the
public schools open.
Earlier Opening
Some leaders of church schools
might we'll consider having Orally
Day" earlier than usual. Parents
who have deep concern about the
religious education Of their children
don't need to wait for "Rally Day"
to have their children begin resu.
lar attendance at Sunday school,
provided they 60 with these chill

dren to Sunday school. Having lived
happily with their children, they
should not find it very difficult to
get these children to go along with
them, and even stay for church-as
one Of the things the family all do
together. This togetherness is q
mighty force.
1t may not be easy to keep the
children over five or six for church.
Fortunate if there is a well-directed
activity program for them duri~~
the church services. Nor may the
adolescent children be very eager
to attend Sunday school or church.
Yet if there is . good youth pro-
gram at church and fine family
spirit Of unity and cooperation,
many Of them can be induced to
attend Sunday school or church Or
both.

The Stars Say.
For Sunday, September &c
By GENEVIEVE kEMBLE

SUNDAYS horoscope holds some
sign of encouragement for eccle-
siastical and serious affairs yet
sudden and perhaps startling turn
of events enjoins particular pre-
caution in relation to new and un-
tried ventures in which uncertainty
and progress must be weighed in
the balance. There are hints of in
trigue and undercover factors which
could prove menacing to the subtlest
of strategies. Keep alert to all du-
bious alliances.
For the Birthday
Those whose birthday it is may
be disposed to some sort of spec
tacular change or high adventure
in which originality and innovation
hold promise. Change and travel in
far fields lure, but entangling alli-
ances of suspicious or pe1icioas
quality could entail serious loss of
funds, resources and cooperation
from those in influential places.
A child born on this day, while
endowed with originality, and an
urge TO high adventure and drama,
yet is victim to suspicious persons
and schemes, with dead sea fruit"
as the climax.
For Monday, September 81
Mondays astrological forecast is
for a spectacular and sensational
about-face in the affairs, which are
likely to plunge the name, adven-
lures and original ideas in a con-
spicuous place in the public eye. A
squirt of creative energy, a discov-
cry, scientific or inventive, may
prove of great value, if effectively
and practically promoted. Ingenu-
ity and skill, pushed with vigor and
sane studied effort, should win the
cooperation of influential person.
ages.
On the Birthday
Those whose birthday it is may
look for a year of surprising ac-
complishment, in which 1t may be
able to put over some cratic or
spectacular notion. appearing at
first demonstration as too novel or
experimental to have real worth or
practically. Scientific or inventive
experiments worked out with preci-
sion and potential soundness could
be so impressive as to break down
opposition and win over the need
full capital and influence for pro.
motion and production. Marshalled
forces, unique talents and deter
mination could win out in the long
run, and probably land the "genius"
high in the limelight.
A child born on this day is richly
endowed with creative talents with
originality, daring and determine

baton. Romance and adventure

Weight
Is q Key.
To Health
By HERMAN N. BuNDEsEN, MD.

oy nLNWAN n. oONUkS6NS ulsVs
NEARLY all Of US like to watch
our weight, not merely as 4 matter
of curiosity but as an index Of
health; and it is true that either 4
sudden gain or 4 sudden loss in
weight may have medical signih-
canoe.
Weight loss is associated ssps-
cially with ailments affecting the
stomach and bowel, and recent anal
yses of the case records Of some 227
patients show that it very often
indicates the presence Of organic
trouble somewhere in the digestive
tract.
No Weight Loss
Young people included in the
study showed no weight loss. Most
patients under the age Of 20, who
complained Of gastro-intestinal
troubles did not have any organic
disease; that is, there was nothing
actually aniss with the tissues Of
the stomach and bowel though, for
one reason or another, they did not
function just as they should.
After the age Of 60, weight loss in
practically all instances meant or
ganic trouble in patients of this
age, organic changes are very likely
to be at the root of this type of all
ment whether or not there is weight
loss.
Between the ages Of 81 and Co.
the age group which applied to most
of the patients studied-the cause
Of weight loss was less definite.
When no weight loss occurred, there
was a $3.50 chance that the trouble
was functional. In the presence Of
weight loss, however, the probable
ity of organic disturbance was
greater.
The study showed that, for every
patient who had lost weight from a
functional disorder, there were
three with weight loss because Of
organic trouble.
Organic Disease
A patient with organic disease,
such as trouble with the gallbladder
or ulcers of the stomach or bowel,
need not necessarily lose weight,
but the study revealed that those
with organic disease lost weight
twice as often as did those with
functional disorders.
In this group of patients, the
number with cancer was very small;
and of those with cancer, the only
ones who showed much weight loss
were those who had cancer Of tho
stomach.
Thorough Examination
When a person has q complaint
involving the stomach, intestines or
gallbladder, there always is need
for thorough examination by 4
physician. in order to discover not
only the location but also the type
Of disorder present. Determining
whether or not the patient has lost
weight may be of some help in the
diagnosis.
The study of the patient should
include not only the determination
of weight loss, but also careful
X-ray examination of the stomach,
bowel and gallbladder and such
laboratory tests as are indicated.
