Hi there! I've been as busy
this week as a hen with one
chick. This week began very
busily. For instance, l at
tended Ebenezer Methodist
Church last Sunday morn
ing, made pictures of mem
bers of the "Phi Beta Sig
ma" Fraternity who worship
ped there. (See the pictures
and story elsewhere in the
TRIBUNE).
AT 3 pm. | went to Sweet
Union where the Flower Club
celebrated its 25th anniver-
sary. l accompanied Mrs.
Christine Keeling, played the
organ and heard a wonder
full speaker, Mrs. G. w. Ham
ilton (see her picture else
where in TRIBUNE).
/ left Sweet Union and went
over to Addison, where l,
though of necessity, was late,
heard the latter part of the
program presented by Addi-
son Choir. The numbers were
beautifully rendered and Don
Pullen gave ample support
with his accompanying. The
nuances were delightful and
the interpretations most in
teresting. Mr.. James Thomp-
son has done an excellent Job
at training his choral group,
A delightful mood was set
with the entrance of the
strawberry man and maid; the
chimney sweep. Mueller's "a
Mighty Fortress" was their
concluding number.
Alpha Kappa L a m b d a
Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha
Fraternity, Inc, presented
the choir in their Spring Con-
cert. If you missed it, try
not to do so again. Two
friends accompanied me there.
They were glad that they
went and | was interested in
hearing the wife say, "Why,
we had a delightful time. We
should go more often. You
know" she said, "we just fail
to go to our school, / guess,
because we don't have chill
dren, but we really should go
often"
And | agree with the lady.

Poll Tax Payments Rise
ToNeorby Virginia High

A record number of Northern
Virginians-approximately 49,
+000-have paid poll taxes this
year, according to treasurer Of
fices in the four nearby jurisdic-
lions.
One jurisdiction, Alexandria,
showed a drop Of paid-up voters,
however.
Roger Sullivan, treasurer in
Alexandra, said the 1856 list
has dropped to 29.047, about l.
900 less than last year. He at
tributed the drop to the fact
that last year was a presidential
election year and additionally
voting lists reach q high point
for the presidential elections.
The number Of persons who
have paid their 1856 poll tax
does not necessarily represent
the number qualified to vote. A
resident has to have paid poll
taxes for the past three years If
he has lived in Virginia that
long.

On the contrary, say the Mu-
rine researchers, most psyche
logiSts and PSYCHOLOGISTS feel
that crying may be helpful on
occasion, since it occurs in q
state Of emotional transition
and is almost always accom-
panied by a feeling Of relief.
Thus, when women cry, un-
less they're turning on phony
tears to sway hapeless male
to their point of view, they're
simply bringing their nervous
system back into balance and
returning to mental and phySic-
al well-being.
Why, then, don't men cry?
They could, and readily, but
from childhood they're condi-
toned to believe that tears are
taboo to all that's masculine.
Achilles shed tears over the
death of Ajax. Alexander wept
on beholding the land he had
conquered. Napoleon, watching
his French army desintegrate in
the Russian winter, sobbed in
Illustration and grief.

WHY DO WoMEN cRY7

That's a puzzler men have
pondered for centuries, at such
varying occasions as the offer
ing of an engagement ring, the
death of loved one, the win
ming Of a beauty crown or the
climax of a soap opera.
For those-or a million other
things - TeSsie turns on the
tears. But how does she pull the
trigger on those tears that have
befuddled helpless males since
the dawn of time?
According to researchers for
the Murine Company Of Chi
cago, TeSSie's tears don't gush
Immediately. First, her heart
speeds up, her. skin becomes
cold, digestive action is halted
and blood pressure is raised.
Then, when the tension breaks,
the eye lotion of the tear gland,
which is located just beneath
outer bony rim the eye socket,
begins to flow.
Tears sweep across the eye
ball and collect at the inner
edge of the lids in a sort of
pool. Some overflow.
Small tubes at the corner OF
both eyelids collect tears, drain
ing them into a tear sac, which
lies beneath the skin and mus
Gle tissue alongside the bridge
of the nose.
Another tube extends from
the tear sacs to the interior of
the nose. Thus, during a heavy
cry, a runny nose occurs.
Is crying harmful?
