E0ME0WKERS ASKED
 TO CHECK WINTER HEATING EQUIPMENT

fire Prevention Week, which IS being observed this week, is dhe oldest of national weeks" in Ahe united States-it was so pro tIalmed by president Harding in E12 Since that time, each P. esldent in turn has proclaim ed the week in October which contains October 9the anniver- Safy of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871.
 Fire Chief Joseph Gallant this week enlisted the help of the en- sire community in stopping fires and saving lives. The majority of hres occurring in the Palmer area could be prevented with fore : thought, he pointed out.
 With cold weather coming on Fire Chief Gallant suggested that all f1omeoWners check their heat sng systems. This is true of all type heaters, he pointed out Space heaters should be clean and free of soot, the regulators , an draft checks should be care fully inspected and replaced if necessary. Furnaces should be cleaned before starting the long winter use period and ehimneys should be checked for breaks or cracks. Fireproof insulation should protect all areas that will be exposed to continual heat, he added.
 Many winter fire calls are the re ults of flooded oil burners, Chief Gallant stated. Burners should be cleaned thoroughly be- fore starting the winter season, he pointed out.
 Experience establishes he said, that most fires can be pre-. vented by simple and easy cor. rections of physical conditions, inexpensive adjustments of usage and mininaI attention to and in- .sprction Of the design, installa- 'tion and maintainanee of hazard ous equipment"
 Chief Gallant announced that the Palmer volunteer fire depart Tnent personnel will be happy to ass st all homeoWners in deter mining the safety of their fuel burning equipment Anyone de- siring such assistance is asked to call the office of the City Clerk and leave their name, ad- dess and hours during which they will be at home.

Niagara Power Bill
Faces House Fiqht
BY the Associated Press

New York State looked today
to the House for final authority
to build new power plants at
Niagara Falls. But a real scrap
is in the offing.
The Senate late yesterday
passed, 1899. a bill by Senator
Lehman, Democrat of New York,
that permits the States power
authority to construct and adj
minister the $440 million project.
The measure, strongly opposed
by Senator Ives, Republican of
New York. now goes to the House
where it faces an uncertain fate
Senator Capehart. Republican
of Indiana, who wants private
utility companies to take over
the vast project, gave a warning
of possible things to come when,
in the final minutes of the Sem
ate debate, he said:
Il am just as certain as I am
standing here that the House
won't pass this bill"
In 1858 the House passed Nj
agara legislation that gave the
project to five big New York
private utilities. The bill died
in the Senate.

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Emotion Can Wreck Digestion
By DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

B. Cannon, MD, made some eS-
sential contributions to our I'M
derstanding of what later became
psychosmatic medicine,
Cites Effect on Stomach
In speaking of emotions eff
fects upon the stomach he said:
THE conditions favorable to pro-
per digestion are wholly abol-
ished when unpleasant feelings
such as exertion and worry and
anxiety, or great emotions such
as anger and fear. are allowed to
prevail"
1t is not necessary for us to
be great psychologists like Dr.
Cannon to realize the truth OF
this statement. If you have ever
had a squabble with your hus-
band Tor wife, you know the
consequences. Many a good cut
of steak has gone to waste at a
dinner table put in a turmoil by
arguments.
Resolve not to be a party to
such shenanigans. Refuse to eat
until your temper or anger cools
off. along with the hot and dry
stomach lining. 1t has been
proved that when you blush.
your stomach walls get red and
blush, too. When your lips be-
come dry with fear and anger,
the stomach does the same.
A great motto is this: If you
can't be sweet, don't eat! Have
you ever been called upon, I'M
expectedly, to speak in public?
If you are like most people. your
mouth became dry. Perhaps you
asked for water. That was a
physiological reaction to fright.
How did you enjoy your food
while anticipating that you
would be next on the program"
If you are like the rest Of us
humans. you didn't.
"Ordeal Of Rice"
In India they used to have
an Ordeal of Rice" to find a
suspect among a group of men.
They would be made to chew dry

The healthy stomach is not a
jprima donna. Treat it right and
lit rarely complains.
However. there are times when
this patient organ gets sassy
and you can't blame it. Consider
how long it has borne up under
heavy and monStrous loads of
food and you wonder it has not
complained long ago.
Think of the midnight snacks
piled on undigested late dinners.
Think of martins, manhat-
tans and all the knick-knackS at
cocktail parties. Think of the
Igobbling quick lunch; and the
fast cup of coffee" in the morn
ing so you won't miss the bus or
the $40 for work.
Some days we starve ourselves.
Other days we stuff ourselves
like the Romans used to do. If
we have no ulcers or gaStritis
the stomach takes all this in
stride.
Won't Forgive Tension
But there is one thing that the
healthy stomach will not forgive;
tension due to an emotional up
set. Never sit down to eat when
you are still overcome by anger.
Your stomach will bunch UP on
you" Better not to eat and go
hungry than to take food and
find your stomach is on strike.
I am surprised by the large
number of intelligent people who
still doubt the effect Of emo
tons on our bodily organs. Last
night an engineer said to me
I'm glad to see some of your
colleagues are beginning to doubt
the Importance of psychosoma-
tics. Personally, I've thought fol
a long time it was being over
done"
Personal experience convince;
me that this is not true. AL
though many doctors are aware
of the effect of the emotions
upon every organ, there are still
too many doubters. Unfor-
tunately they go looking for seri-
GUS disease without giving g
thought to the possibility OF
emotion being the cause.
When the stomach complains
obtaining a complete history i;
important. Especially so if a
complete investigation by X-ray'
and other examinations have not
found the cause of the upset.
A number of years ago Walter
