Still fingered and cleaned in his hair.
He had been with us a scarce four years,
And 1t hardly seemed a day
When a troop of wandering angels
Stole our little son and brother away.

New BUrsitis Treotment
DIR. Everett Gordon, Washington
orthopedic surgeon, believes he has
found a new quick treatment for
bursitis-a painful ailment of the arm
and shoulder especially common to
baseball players.
The treatment calls for injection of
drug in a tiny nerve center in the
neck, known as the stellate ganglion.
There is one such ganglion on each
side Of the neck, affecting the arm on
that side.
The ganglion controls the blood
How. One trouble in bursitis. Dr.. Cor
don said, is construction of the vessels
so that blood stagnates and leaks
causing swelling. Later calcium de-
posits may form.
DR.. Gordon explained that when the
ganglion is blocked by injection of
the drug, the blood vessels open and
soreness disappears within five davs
The calcium deposits disappear a few
days later.
In the past usual treatment has been
X-ray, heat and liniment. In normal
cases, relief usually requires several
weeks.

Both the Administration and Gen.

The President asked the people not
to make up their minds until all the

Spinsfer Study

Spinster Study
On the average, spinsters are as
beautiful as wives but they don't
smile nearly as often.
That's one conclusion of a psvcho-
logical study of 176 wives and an
equal number Of spinsters by DR.. H.
<. Moore on the faculty of Arkansas
A. and M. College.
Some other findings:
Both groups are about equal in
beauty, intelligence and enjoyment of
housekeeping.
The spinster is inclined to have an
unhappy disposition, to be afraid of
sex and childbirth, and to be a self
centered fault-finder who always
wants her own way.
DR.. Moore's report indicates that
the old maids troubles stem from tie
fact that they were educated too
much for careers instead of for mar
riage.
As a result, il says, the spinster
finds it hard to treat men naturally.
She is likely either to appear indif-
ferent or overanxious when men no
tice her.

SO far the only thing the tremendous

Hed casualties since April % have
been estimated at more than 10000

The basic strategy of the Admin

has been to limit the war to Korea
make it very costly on the Chinese
communists yet avoid any risk of
drawing Russia into the conflict di-
rectly. The core of this theory is that
when the Chinese Reds have been
hurt enough they will be willing to
sit down at a conference table to dis
cuss settlement acceptable to the

The U.N. forces. have been infiictinp

four Red Chinese armies had been

somewhere between 100000 and 8OO,-
