Guides Are Offered
There are certain funda-
mental laws about retirement
at IS. Few men succeed In
breaking them. Here they
are:
. Retirement is a sort Of
baptism into a new way of
life, considerably more sig
nificant than the mere lay
ing aside of a Job.
. A mans satisfactions in
the working days Of his life
derive, in the main, from (a)
power or influence, and (b)
money. The power or infiu-
ence ordinarily 60 with the
job, and go when the job
does. The money, once it
supplies the declining wants
Of a 65-year-old man, loses
its satisfaction unless en-
ployed to buy control of
some business or project, and
thus brings back power. Most
older men, with what money
they have, prefer a quiet in
vestment to a risky venture.
. Since most men retire
without any new job that
will give them influence or
power, and without enough
money to buy it, they must
seek satisfactions different
from those they have spent
their life trying to attain.

society which thinks 6S years

o The average man who

What do you do2" They
will not often ask your name.
They are interested in what
you are, not who. And it
behooves you to understand
that when your retirement
takes away your "What"-or
your job-you aren't very
interesting.

been true. For several years
she has been sneaking

that her husband is greatly

Although Myra absolves
herself from the guilt Of
desiring to snatch another
woman's husband, she can
not be quite so innocent.
We are a bit suspicious Of
her unselfishness. Could It
be that she actually places
a very low value on this

good enough for her - yet
good enough to use as q

This story Of a man we'll
call John Smith may pro-
vide a clue to your own re-
tirement. He retired d last
January /. He was upper
middle class and had a
family. a neighborhood and
a salary that were the same.
His retirement income to-
tailed $3.50 a month. His saw
ings totaled $500. His life
insurance paid up) had a
face value of $4,000.
Mr.. Smith had enjoyed
belonging to things. So he
decided that in retirement he
would head up two commu-
nifty projects that we're hun
CRY for leadership. One was a
building fund drive by a
sc hool which his church
sponsored; the other a cam
paign by merchants to clear
out a honky-tonk street that
bordered the business sec
ton and replace it with re-
spectacle business houses.
He also decided that he
and his wife should sell their
big. costly home (for $18,-
000, and buy for $4,000 a
toy ranch house five blocks
away which another retired
couple was ready to sell.
All Goes Wrong

a Dear DR.. Steincrohn: How
dangerous are heart mur-
fnurs? Just what are they?
and what's to be done2 My
husband just came home
from the doctor who told
him he has q murmur. Sim
cerely. Mrs. D., Miami. Fla.
WHEN THE DOCTOR
listens with his stethoscope
to the heart Of a person who
has q murmur, he hears a
sound loud or soft, smooth
or rough, that overlaps the
normal beating of the heart.
For you to understand just
what a murmur means. you
had better recall what you
may have read about. the
anatomy Of the heart.
There are four chambers.
Blood from the body enters
the two upper chambers
(auricles). 1t must pass
through connecting valves
between each upper (auricle)
and lower chamber wen
tricles). After filling, these
ventricles pump the blood
through the large arteries to
the lungs and to the rest of
the body.
Now here is where the
question of murmurs arises.
Between each opening (aur-
icular-ventricular) there is
a valve which is supposed to
prevent the blood from re-
gurgitating Glowing back
ward) when the heart muscle
squeezes it forward. There
are also valves in the large
arteries (aorta and pulmon-
ary) for the same purpose.
In normal persons, these
valves shut tight and all you
hear when listening to the
heart is the "lub-dub" which
is due to the opening and
closing of the valves. How
ever. if the valves have been
damaged by infection Gas
for example. in rheumatic
fever they either close too
tightly or not tightly enough.
This causes the blood (as

What a Heart Murnur Can Mean
BY DR.. PETER }. STEINcRoHN

flowing over the rough spots)
to make eddieS and murmur
sounds.
In congenital heart disease
there are murmurs because
the child has been born with
a defect in the valves or
between the chambers or in
the blood vessels themselves.
We hear murmurs in patients
with various types of heart
disease: In hypertensive (high
blood pressure) heart dis
ease, in arteriosclerotic heart
disease, in trouble due to
syphilis. in coronary disease.
Most often we hear mur-
murs when there is no un-
derlying heart trouble. You
can have a temporary mur-
mur during fever, after exer-
else or following any other
condition in the body that
causes the heart to beat very
rapidly. Many children and
adults have what we call
functional murmurs. They
are not due to disease and
are not life shortening. If
you have a murmur, 1t is
therefore important to learn
what is causing it. If your
doctor says it is a functional
murmur, better forget about
1t. You can climb mountains,
engage in sports moderately
if the heart muscle itself is
all right.
What to do? It's evident,
Mrs. D.. that the most i'm
portant thing is diagnosis.
What is causing it? Which
of the types of heart disease
I have mentioned is to
blame? Or isn't It heart
disease at all?
II the murmur is due to
rheumatic heart disease, the
doctor will use antibiotics
like penicillin to prevent fur
ther damage. If due to
syphilis, he will also use
antibiotics and other drugs.
If due to high blood pressure
he will treat that; if due 10
arteriosclerosis he may put
you on a low cholestrerol diet.
But mind you, all such
treatment (although benefit
ing the heart) may not have
an effect on the murmur.
That may last for life. In
fact, you may have murmurs
in two or three different
valves at the same time.
How you are doing will de-
pend upon how your heart
muscle is. If it is weak, you
will be short of breath, your
ankles and legs will be swol-
len, etc. We will give you
digitaliS, mercurial drugs and
low salt diets for that.
Your husbands doctor.
Mrs. D., is undoubtedly treat
ing his heart for the under
lying condition. The murmur
is really unimportant in
many cases. When it IS. we
sometimes call in the surgeon
to operate on the valve to
overcome weakness in the
rest Of the heart. Murmurs
are important only in rela-
ton to what is causing them.
Heart surgery is becoming
more and more effective in
treating congenital and rheu-
matte heart diseases.

under 8. and he has made a
habit of bringing them to our
home, saying he has to take
the children out of his wife's
hair for a while"
He has kept those children
UP until 10:30 at night. My
husband calls me "unreason-
able" when I say If this friend
wants to take the children
out Of his wife's hair he
should entertain them in a
park or somewhere. I am So
and can't stand the noise.
The last time my husband
entertained them in our ga
rage because they were get
ting in MY hair. What do
you think of this?
IN MY HAIR.
Children 8 years old and
younger don't belong in a
park, a garage or anywhere
except their own beds after
8 in the evening. Your

ing his friend to bring them

'Wormy' Fish Not Harmful to Man

JUN E A U - The question of "wormy fish" was brought to the Alaska Division of Health labora- tories again this spring after some early fishermen found small round white worms in their catches. They asked whether these made the fish unsafe to eat.
 Few worms of fish except some of the tapeworms will live in human bodies even though they are transmitted from fish to man through consumption of raw or inSufficiently cooked fish, accord ing to Ralph B. Williams, director of laboratory services. He said the worms are more unaesthetic than unsafe" and that they are of minor importance in view of the great nutritional value of the fish food.

Why Red, White & Blue In Old Glory?

age, white is a symbol of purity and innocence, and blue is the color of vigilance, perseverance and justice.
 According to legend, however, George Washington gave us a more dramatic explanation when he re- portedly said:
 We take the stars and blue union from Heaven, the red from our
 mother country, separating it by white stripes, thus showing we
 have separated from her, and the white stripes shall go down
 to posterity representing liberty.
 The original "Old Glory was a world traveller, a refugee from the
