Why Grow
Old?
By Josephine Lowmon

Unless you have missed "Why
Grow Old?" this week (shame on
YOU'D you know that this is Mara
thon week. This is the week when
tens of thousands of woman join
my Eight Week Self Improvement
Marathon to see how much they
can improve themselves in that
length of time.
You can be rid of those bulges,
those rolls, that unattractive figure
line and twenty pounds you don't
want, by the end of that time
You can also have more pep and
|prettier hair and complexion. ]
run Marathon only once a year,
$50, If you have been procrastinat-
ing, get busy and hurry your re-
quest along.
I would like to hear from you
at the end of Marathon, although
this is not compulsory. I like to
know what you have accomplished.
Later in the year I print the stories
of Marathon winners, without
names unless you wish to have
your name used.
You don't have to be frantic
about this although you must be
faithful and regular in following
diet and doing your exercises, in
maSsaging your scalp or lubricat-
ing your face, in doing whatever
is essential in order to improve
yourself. .
You do not have to starve in
order to lose weight. You can lose
two and a half pounds a week and
be twenty pounds lighter at the
end of eight weeks. If you have
lots Of weight to lose you should do
so gradually in order to give the
skin time to shrink gradually and
give yourself time to tone up and
firm up.
If you do exercises begin easily
and build up slowly. Otherwise
you will become sore and dis
couraged. Do the exercises only a
few times each day at first and
build until you are doing each
one about thirty-five times or more
each day. Even then your ex-
ercises will require only about
twenty minutes each day.
Such a little price to pay for
feeling and looking years younger
than you have in q long, long time |!
You can look years younger next
January and long before that!
Remember those spring clothes
you are going to want to buy!
Last call for this years Mara
thon!
If you want help with your
figure and beauty defects send a
stamped, self-addressed envelope
with your request for the Mara

At the ADELE SIMPSON collec-

dominate the fashion picture
Cowl-like collars carry on a bit
of fashion deception. Halter
styled dresses have uniquely de-

poses. Some of these "cover-ups''

"Double-duty" stressing is done
by nearly all designers this spring
In this, his American collection,
Dior designs little light coats to
be worn over sleeveless dinner
dresses (short) giving them a
night and day value. Necklines
are etched out on many of these
dresses with glittering "rocks. y
For evening gowns Dior leans to
sumptuous offerings in mousseline

lengths.

Mass Test of GIutonic Acid
Planned on Retarded Children

group, the acid has caused an
average" normal rate of mental
growth, according to Dr.. Samuel
P. Bessman.
Some Growth Above Normal.
In some cases, he explained, the
rate Of growth was stimulated
above normal. In others, glutamic
had only small effect. The average
of the ITS cases, however, was near
the speed of mental growth found
In the normal child.
The speeded rate of growth
usually ends when the substance
is no longer fed children, and in
some cases it's effect "tapers off
earlier, DR.. Bessman said. In
cases of improvement, he added,
the mental retardation is the re-
suit of some deficiency in the
brains function. The drug is not
effective in cases of actual brain
damage.
DR.. Montgomery Blair, jr., pres
ident of the foundation. said a 1850
budget of $26,250 has been set for
the glumatic studies. Negotiations
to provide grants for some money
still are under way.
Officials feel study carried out
in school class for retarded chill
dren, under standard conditions,
would provide a sounder basis for
Ievaluating results. To rule out
psychological factors. they hope
that one group Of the class can
receive the acid, while another gets
a substance which looks and tastes
the same, but contains no glutamic.
To hurdle the problem of the
acids strong taste, DR.. Bessman
said, doctors are trying to develop
a syrup containing the acid. A
special project this year also will
gauge the safety Of salts that
might be used for the purpose.
Another Study Planned.
DR.. Blair said another glutamic
study will be aimed at reducing
mental damage caused by menin-
gifts and encephalitis. Given dur
ing the course OF the diseases, he
said, there is a possibility glutamic
acid could halt the damage.
In another major project, Dr..
Blair said. scientists this year will
study lung tissues Of deceased
persons to detect the presence Of
lipoid pneumonia. The disease,
caused by oil inhaled into the
lungs, may be much more common
than is usually thought. he said.
Still another project will study
emotional factors as possible
causes of infant diarrhea. In three
of every four cases, doctors said,
no specific infection can be traced
as the cause. DR.. Blair said q
Sc, ,696 grant has been requested
from the Mental Health Institute
for the study.
Grants during 1949, DR.. Blair
said. totaled more than $30,534.
In addition, he said. the hospital
received drugs, some Of them not
yet available commercially, which
would have cash values Of more
than $35. 900.
DR.. Blair was reelected presi-

Children's Hospital scientists
hope to arrange a mass project"
with officials of a school in this
area to learn more about bene-
fetal effects of glutamic acid on
mentally retarded children.
The plan is part of a major
project for 1850, mapped by the
Research Foundation of Chill
dren's Hospital, which co-ordi-
mates all research studies at the
institution. 1t was disclosed at
the foundation's annual board
meeting yesterday.
At the hospital clinic during
the last two years, 125 retarded
children have been fed large doses
of glutamic acid, substance pres
ent in great quantity in brain
tissues. In the carefully selected

meeting. Also elected were DR..
Edgar w. Davis, vice president;
Wallace Werble, secretary. and
Bruce Baird, assistant treasurer
DR.. Edgar 2. Copeland was named
to succeed, DR.. Joseph S., Wall as
research committee chairman, and
Miss 1 Elizabeth Houghton was

tuition, the board also voted to
give the foundation supervision
over all medical research at the
