Maya Indians Of 4ucatan, for example, made a concoction from the stem of the plant for use in dysentery. In this country, at the turn of the century pineapple juice was common home rem edy for clearing the throat" ridding it of mucous concentra- tions. The juice has supposedly been used successfully for worms, lice, scurvy, tonsilitis, diphtheria, bed sores, corns and boils.
 But it was left to modern medi- cal science to determine the real value of pineapple as a therapeu- tic agent, and to produce a clin- ically valuable product. We now know that there may have been something to the anciens beliefs, for the pineapple plant contains one of natures true wonders, and great mysteries, an enzyn1e. Specifically, it is bromelain.
 Enzymes are the chemical ma chinery that make the body work; they are essential to life, and are found in all living things. There are many hundreds of en- zymes and each performs speci- fic duty. Bromelain, it was found, destroys fibrin, the hody's s1na- terial that walls off m injured or infected area. While this wall has certain value, it also prevents antibodies and nutrient fluids from getting into the infiammed area to combat infection.
 The body has chemical that eventually breaks down the fi- brin wall, but this may take days or even weeks. For example, a black eye will usually clear in about 10 days, with swelling sub Siding sloWly. The pineapple en- xyn1e product, called Ananase, substitutes for the body's natural

For Conservatives

For thirty years America has been caught in battle
between those who want and those who
advocate individual freedom.
Consistently during that time the liberals desiring
more governmenhave proposed schemes and the
servativespreerng freedom have resisted the schemes
But always the liberals proposals the issues and the
country either becomes LIBERAL remains the 1t
in the conservatives direction.
Now that may change. Senator John G. Tower artic
uate conservative Texas introduced eight important
bills and resolutions last March Those eight proposals
beginning put the liberals the defensive for change
These eight bills form the basis of Senator Towers new
book Program for Conservatives In it he devotes chapter
to each of the eight proposals. and does excellent selling
job with each
Two deal with foreign policy and private enterprise On
the he proposes Joint resolution of Congress- sgnyng
that our foreign policy purpose should be VICTORY OVER
COMMUNISM
In the other he asks for Senate investigation into the
which the national has set
tons in competition with private enterprise This
that goes right of Constitutional SYSTEM
and the fundamental right of the individual to be free from
government intervention authorized by the Constitution
Other proposals include subjecng unions to antitrust
legislation under circumstances having Congress
watch over the administrations "strong-man trade
powers making balanced budgets constituonay manda-
tory removing from the farm business reduc
ing taxes and defining states rights.
The program ambitious one AS ne points
ont everyone will agree with all Of it, and many feel 1t
doesn't 90 enough He implies that he agrees with the
latter but says that this time any forward de-
sirable."
If his proposals will re-orent thinking enough to
make freedom the instead OF government they
will have gone far enough to useful purpose

On this recent Thanksgiving day
the Orville Kinsinger family had
additional reasons to be thankful
than do many people. For their
barn which wcs destroyed by fire
or October IL, was entirely rebuilt
by the Mennonite Disaster Service
workers and many neighbors.
The story was an unusual one for
the KinSinger family. Mr.. and Mrs.
Kinsinger reside on a 90-acre farm
and have a daughter Donna, 8, at
home and two married daughters,
Karen, in Newfoundland, and
Margie, in Europe.
AS Mr.. Kinsinger stood at his
kitchen door that morning, look
ing toward the barn he thought
the sun was particularly bright. 1t
looked red through the barn. He
called his wife, Alma, and she too
thought the suns rays were un-
usual. When Orville went to the
barn and opened the door, fire
rolled across the barn floor.

arrived the barn was mass of

not determined.
Early the next morning the Men

Hunting Sideligyhts g

There were a number of unusual
circumstances occurred. AS Ralph
Smouse was returning to Oakland
late one evening he saw a buck and
four does just standing around
near the property of Mrs. 7. E.
Bullard. They seemed to be in
no hurry to scatter.
A billy goat that had been loiter-
ing near a hunting lodge was dis
covered the other morning lying
near the main road Somebody ap-
parently had mistaken him for a
buck.
And hunter from Kensington
was doing his hunting from tree.
Whether or not he saw a buck and
lost his balance in the excitement

Bids Asked on Flood
Work at Kitzmiller

The Corps of Army Engineers IS
accepting bids for the 100000 Kitz-
miller-Blaine flood protection prof.
ect until December 20 at it's Balti-
more district office The advertis-
ing for bids follows efforts that
we're started in 1856 after the dam
age suffered by the towns following
the flooding of the North Branch of
the Potomac River
The project, it was pointed out
by Carl Schell, present president of
the county commissioners, would be
financed by the county commission
ers, the state of Maryland and the
Corps of Engineers.
The county's share of the cost
will be $29,97O, the states, S59,5O0,
with the federal government paying
the remainder.
Schell said the project called for
excavation of 4,7OO feet of North
Branch channel improvement. In
addition, $500 feet of levee embank-
ment will have stone rip rap SINH
lar to parts of the Cumberland
Ridgeley flood control project.
Excavation Planned
There will be 147,000 cubic yards
of eXcavated material from the
river channel together with 10000
cubic yards of protective stone, TO-
600 pounds of steel reinforcing sIeel
and $4,000 cubic yards of oxcava-
ton Of embanlImcnt
The contract also will call for
seeding seven acres of grass of the
embankmcnt.
A serious effort to bring the
flood control project reality came
in 1856 after many properties were
damaged during Hurricane Hazel
and another one just prior to that
Serious damage occurred also in
1924 and 1886.

Thayer has also been appointed
by the Fourth Judicial Circuit
through Judge Hamill to serve the
four-year term beginning January

There was no candidate for states
attorney at the recent election. The

is the only Democratic attorney in
the county.
The previous salary was S2,4OO
a year plus $50 monthly expenses
and a provision for up to 500 under
certain circumstances. The new
salary will be $500 a year with

5O7 Deer Slain
First Four DAYS
of Buck Season
TotuI Expected To Be Less
Than Record Of 804,
Set In 1860

Five hundred seven bucks have
been slain during the first four
days of the seven-day season. it
was reported this morning by game
officials. The number was totaled
from the four deer checking sta
tions in the county in addition to
others in Allegany county where
deer killed in this county had been
reported.
Biggest day by far was last Sat
urday when 267 bucks we're killed.
and the largest number was re-
ported from Oakland. One hundred
ten were killed on Monday, SO on
Tuesday and AZ on Wednesday,
The totals include the following

Game Wardens in general we're
of the opinion that hunting pres
sure had seemed TO be less in this
county than ever before. 1t was
evident that the deer population
was spread more evenly through
out the entire state There is now
legal hunting for deer in every
county but one
Allcgany county reported kill
of more than 600 for the first four
days
Apparently there were few game
violations Hunting weather was
considered much too warm until
today when it turned noticeably
colder and about four inches of
snow had fallen
The weights ranged from 20
pounds to around 100, with most
of them being less than 100 pounds.
