 With reference to the termina- ton of contract at the end of 1850 at the request of either party to the agreement, Dr. Jackman said he felt it only fair, because of the funds involved, that years mo- ica of such termination be sub stituted.
 Final decision on the three points in question probably will be made by Miss Katharine E. Gladfelter. secretary of the de- pertinent of education and medi- cine, when the national board meets on April 14 to consider it's annual budget.
 Funds received from the Pres byterian board are considered a grant loan and do not entail re- payment, it was explained. How ever, should the board finance he construction of new hospital, nd then withdraw from it's man. agement, the community would be expected to repay the cost of the building, much in the manner Of mortgage payments.
 Dr. Jackman said the mission appreciated the need for a hos pital here, and that everything would be done to fulfill that need as soon as possible. However, nc construction can be undertaken this year, for all building funds already are obligated.

from Bill. I'm not sure whether
he is in high school or college, but
apparently he is still student.
He thinks he has found the
right girl. and is being discour-
aged from marriage by his parents
My answer, Bill, would be,
Marry just as soon as you are
able to make a success of mar
riage." That would bar some
people forever-they Cor their
parents and teachers) have man
aged their lives so badly that they
will never be capable of sue
ceeding in marriage. Your age by
the calendar has little to do with
the answer-above a certain
minimum, of course. It's a ques-
ton of fact. not of law, as an
attorney would say. Regardless of
When you were born, are you not
old enough to marry?
You could get some sort of an
idea by grading yourself on this
very simple scale for elf-rating:
l. I am capable of earning a
living.
2. I know how to manage money
and I make it a point to save
something regularly out of my
income.
3. I am able to make my own
decisions without calling on others

4. I have gone with a number
of persons of the other sex, be-
ginning in my high school years.
S. I am now ready to concen-
trate my attention permanently
on one person of the other sex
instead of playing the field.

pressure, because heart strokes

strokes (apoplexy), due to high
blood pressure, are becoming in

the family physician, by using
drugs to lower the blood pressure
temporarily, can relax both the
blood vessels and the heart muscle,
and even short rests take some
work off the heart. In addition,
the physician prescribes an easily
digested diet and cuts down the
food intake, thus preventing over
weight, a bad complication of
high blood pressure.
