Cat.SCratCh Fever
. Hard Beds
. Emotional Illness
. Menorrhagia

0. A doctor recently told US
that our yOungster had scat
scratch" fever. What in the
,oOrId is that?
A. Cat-scratch fever is a rela-
lively new disease, or at least
has been recognized only during
the last few years. Although the
cat is looked upon as the carrier
and scratch the usual mode of
transmission, the cause of the
disease is a virus and not the cat.
Typically, a person is scratched
by a cat. Two TO four weeks
later a sore develops at the site
of the scratch. Nearby glands
swell and the victim develops
fever which lasts about 10 days.
These and other symptoms gradu-
ally go away. AntibioticS are
used in treatment of this disease
but their value is questionable.
q. Is a hard bed without
pillOSO best for small children?
A. Sleeping on hard bed with
out pillow is perfectly Satisfac-
tory for normal children. 1t is
important that the bed not sag
in the middle. If the child pre-
fers, a single pillow may be
used.

Point Out Need
OF New Industry

The story that Garrett county is
in need of industry was outlined
to the Department of Economic
Development in Annapolis last
week by the County Commission
crs and State Senator Bernard l..
Gender.
The group met with Messrs. Hub
ley and Pate. heads of the newly
created department. and explained
to them the labor survey that was
underway and the plans for an
airport to be constructed this year.
Both of the men felt that the
acquisition of an airport would be
valuable asset in attracting in
dustrics since number of in
duStrics demanded airport facili-
ties before deciding to locate.
They also felt an airport would be
great asset to the county
Mcssrs. Hubley and Pate said
they planned to start a survey of
all counties of the state soon and
would consider the first survey
being in this county.

mined the fall had severed the
main artery going to the brain in
the vicinity of the ear.
An Oakland surgeon diagnosed
the injury but neurosurgeon was
not Immediately available to per-
form the operation.
A Cumberland surgeon was
called and request made for a
Baltimore neuroSurgeOn. An i'm
mediate operation was considered
necessary and the Oakland surgeon
took the necessary steps to con-
troll bleeding. When the Cumber-
land surgeon arrived the bleeding
- stopped and when the neuro-
surgeon got to Oakland the opera
ton was completed
State police in relays escorted
the Baltimore surgeon to Oakland

tive type blood we're obtained from

Oakland To Observe
Daylight Time Again

Although there is nothing Of
fetal the mayor and members of
the town council seem to be in
agreement that the town of Oak
land will observe daylight saving
time again this year, starting the
last Sunday in April.
The subject failed to come up
for discussion at the regular coun-
Gil meeting on Monday evening. In
fact none seemed to think of the
question until the next day
In lieu of calling a special meet
ing, the clcrk-collcctor got on the
telephone and pollcd the various
members of council and the mayor.
Russell L. Smith. All those con-
tacted said they would favor day
light time.
And so, even though it may not
be made official by a duly author
lied motion and vote until tho
regular meeting in May, by general
agreement it was assumed that on
Sunday, April "a, at 1901 a. m,
citizens of Oakland and surround
ing area would turn their clocks
ahead one hour.
Several other towns of the coun-
ty will take similar action, judging
by what has been done in previous
years.
