FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

AFTER HOURS: The late
John D. Rockefeller, jr., was
notably shy.
During the 1920s he do
mated So million to restore
the Versailles palace. Shortly
after the work had been COM
pleted, he was in France on
a visit.
One afternoon he decided
to drive out to the palace to
see how it looked. He arrived
just as the visitors gate was
being closed for the day.
Rather than identify himself,
he got back into his car and
returned to Paris.
ASSOCIATION: AS a boy,
opera composer Giacomo
Puccini took singing lessons
from a teacher who was a
harsh disciplinarian. When
ever Puccini sang a wrong
note, the teacher would give
him a kick on the shins that
would make him jump.
These kicks left an in
delible impression on the
composer. Years later, when
Puccini was rehearsing his
own opera, he would jerk his
leg instinctively whenever a
singer sang off-key.

my teacher. This was before
anybody would believe that

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, June
l3.-The family doctor-who
Jees 80 per cent of all patients
can and should do research
-tudies on his patients to eval-
late new drugs and medical
procedures himself, a Wash
.ngton doctor said today.
DR.. I. Phillips Frohman pre-
-ented an exhibit at the an
lual American Medical Asso-
iation meeting here today as
learly 10000 doctors ans
others opened the first session.
DR.. Frohman said his eX-
libit is designed to stimulate
he average Joe in the medical
profession" to begin to use his
)wn experience with patients
nore and rely less on canned"
Material from drug houses,
medical journals and other
-ources.
"The general practitioner
md other doctors can do elm
cal Investigations in their
practices if the problems are
properly approached and the
type of studies that fit the
practice are selected" he
declared.
Cites Own Investigations
''Every doctor must evaluate
very new drug he prescribes
me way or another" he said.
The question is how much to
ely on the work of others and
how much to rely on his own
experience with patients fol-
owed closely after given new
medicines.
He cited five Investigations
If his own in recent years, the
"esults of which have been
widely published:
/. The successful use of a
5oIid compound of silver nitrate
20 clear up cervical inflamma-
Sions without the danger OF
causing the spread of cancer
cells which may sometimes
exist. A common practice has
oeen to use a system of cleo
iric cauterizing to do this. But
the exhibit shows. a study OF
5000 patients over the past Is
years confirms the use Of a
strong silver nitrate compound
as being best.

And, rather than stitching the
wound together, metal clamps
were inserted for a 48-hour
period, leaving the wound well
on the way to healing when
removed.
Discusses Infection
With head wounds, DR.. Froh-
man indicated, the dirt has
already been introduced by the
striking object and shaving
the hair merely makes it more
dirty. This, however, applies
to wounds which have not
.punctured the skull and
reached the brain when the
situation is entirely different.
3. Another study by the gen.
eral practitioners Office showed
that chelates of iron-an am
ino acid that keeps iron in
uSable form without side eff
fects-is better for patients
than conventional forms of
iron. This type is rapidly alb
sorbed by the body without

signed to lower blood pressure

But Lenny's wife is a very
cold person and never asks

don't hesitate to call on us
to babysit, though. We don't
mind helping, but we don't
want to be treated like SER

she isn't the type to CAB over

I don't feel it should be
necessary to extend formal
invitations to parents. My
parents know they can come
any time they like. 1t never
occurred to us that Nom and
Dad might object to baby
sitting.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
It's apparent that these
parents have good reason to
feel offended.
Babysitting is a pleasure to
most grandparents, but it is
also a chore. The RESPONSE
bility is no small one and
young children are often far
too energetic for their elderly
grandparents.
Parents are as accustomed
to giving as children are to
receiving, but as the years
go on the situation tends to
reverse itself. Some parents
may become quite dependent
on their children for COM
panionship and psychological
uplift.
We don't think Lenny's
statement that his door is
open to his parents at any
time is sufficient reinsurance
