Dear DR.. Steincrohn: ! am ID
years old and am going to be
married in few months. Frank
ly, there's much I'have to learn
about the facts Of life I'm too
prudish even to ask our family
doctor. Can you recommend any
specific reading material that
might be ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS X"
Answer: I suggest that you
browse taround in some we'll
stocked bookstore or your public
library. Many books have been
written on the subject. I think
you are wise in trying to learn
some essential facts on male
female relationships. Too many
marriages have been needlessly
wrecked because of such ignor-
ance. Perhaps you would like
to write to the British Medical
Association for their booklet en-
titled Getting Married" It is
priced at is cents and is pub
hshed in connection with Fam
lily Doctor" a B. M. A. project.
According to a review in the
Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association-in which I read
about 1.-THE book covers every
angle from romance to recipes,
but gives no guaranteed recipe
for married happiness"
The review of the booklet goes
on to say: Articles by experts
deal frankly with the sexual and
psychological sides of marriage,
the chances Of children, matters
Of heredity, and even the role OF
the mother-in law. :.
The booklet discusses the
material as well as the emotional
side. There are beauty hints for
the bride, and illustrations OF
honeymoon spots side by side
with psychological advice on
honeymoon problems. Other ar
ticles give practical hints on
such subjects as purchasing a
home. legal problems. and
recipes"
All in ALL it seems to be Just
what the doctor would order"
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: My ~
year-old son had an attack OF
rheumatic fever from which he
recovered last month. His doctor
has recommended that he keer
taking medicine daily for years
to prevent further attacks. Dc
you think this is advisable?
Sincerely Mrs. j. c."
Answer: Your doctor is aware
Of the recent advances in the
management of rheumatic fever
and you should be thankful
that you have such a man treat
ing your boy. BY all means fol-
low his directions.
! recall how helpless we used
to be years ago. Time after time,
as we walked the wards during
hospital rounds, we would see the
familiar faces. The youngsters
who were admitted again and
again for recurring attacks Of
rheumatic fever. They would
have two. three, four and more
attacks. And with each succeed
ing attack their hearts would be
reinfected and become weaker.
All we could do was prescribe
salicylates and pray that things
would not get worse.

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Marital Advice in New Booklet
By DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

How matters have changed for
the better! Once a person has
had an original attack we put
him on prophylactic doses Of
the sulfa drugs or penicillin. It
is a simple thing for the patient
to take a pill or two daily for
years when you weigh such tenn
porary discomfort" against the
possibility of getting heart trou-
BILE.
These prophylactic doses have.
without question, greatly de-
creased the incidence of rheu-
matte fever reinfection. And
have. consequently. decreased
the probability Of getting rheu-
matte heart disease. These won
der drugs have been death" to
the A. hemolytic streptococci.
In the treatment Of the origi-
nal rheumatic fever attack the
two. main drugs used are the
salicylates and the corticoste-
roids. These give relief from the
joint pains and the fever.
However. the important con-
sideration is to prevent future
attacks. That's where the sulfas
and the penicillin in daily doses
are so valuable.

JIM BISHOP:
REPORTER

Dolan hoped for something to
keep a man warm. but all ne
got was a mug Of coffee.
Briefing for Veteran
Out in the Narrows, at Quar-
antine Station. the lie de France
swung at anchor. She was big
and she got bigger as they APP
preached. Red swallowed his
pride and asked the others how
a man covered a story like this.
They told him all one had to do
was to climb aboard the big
liner, look over the passenger
list for notables. and interview
them. For instance, q fashion
expert.
Dolan almost wept. He could
stand humiliation, but drudgery
was bad for the feet. He climbed
aboard. looked over the pas
senger list with the others. and
saw only two names of interest.
One was Gloria Swanson. The
other was Joseph Kennedy.
Swanson. Red knew. was some
sort Of a movie star. Kennedy
was some sort Of a tycoon.
He folded his copy paper four
ways and. as the ship hoisted
anchor and moved up the Hud-
SON away from the pink dawn
in her wake. Red sat in suite
Of rooms and asked silly ques-
tons Of Miss Swanson. Then he
went to Mr.. Kennedy's suite and
went through his tycoon ques-
tons. It Is an ironic commentary
on the Irish that the punctual
and precise Kennedy liked the
'inpunctual and careless Dolan
at once. Red. in fact. dropped the
pencil and, over rare refresh
ments. began to regale Kennedy
with few choice stories. They
parted on the pier and vowed
undying friendship.

The Late Red DoIon

The last Of the star reporters
was Red Dolan. After him came
the age Of the editorial special
list. Red was not the best repor-
ter I knew. He was the most
colorful. He could cover any
thing from an assassination to
an assignation. Mr.. D. was big
and he had orange hair in tight
waves and he never wore a hat.
He had. a face Ike a puzzled
Irish setter and he listened with
his head cooked and his hands
clasped behind his back. like a
cop.
In the days when a good re-
write man was getting $50 q
week. Red was getting $500.
Sometimes-aS on the occasion
when he lived with rum runners
and wrote about them - Red
started congressional investiga-
tons. If a love-sick countergirl
in the five-and-ten committed
suicide, Dolan was the man who
knew where to look for her secret
diary. II he showed up to cover
"a small murder trial, you knew
at once that it was a bigger case
than you had thought.
Red was q bachelor. He was
broke. His gravest fault was
that he was chronically late. ]
never knew him TO get to an
assignment on time; I never
knew him to be In the ONCE on
time. When he arrived in the
morning. he came into the city
room like a benevolent mahara-
jah. walking out of his topcoat
as copy boys held it, and pre-
tending that the city editor did
not exist.

This went on for years. One
day the boss called him over anc

once too often, Red. I've giver

dump and in return you have

That's ALL"
Red smiled mechanically, like
a fighter who has stopped a hard
right and wants to show every
body that he isn't hurt. "Shir
news?" he said softly. II know
you're sore. but ship news is for
a $35 a week kid"
The city editor laid his pencil
down. Your assignment" he
said slowly, lis to 60 down New
York Bay at 5 am. and board a
Coast Guard cutter and meet the
ships, Meet them, Red. Don't

and announced that he was COINS

he wasn't late for the boat. Al
