He S e e m ed only a few
months away from extinction.
What to do? Operate? What
was there to gain? But what
was there to lose? In spite Of
his heart condition he with
stood over four hours Of sur
gerry.
Guess what the surgeons
found? Not cancer. What he
had was an old ulcer Of the
stomach and chronic gall blad-
der disease. The ulcer had
slowly perforated over a per-
iOd of months. The result was
a mass which had simulated a
tumor on the X-ray. 1t had
caused his inability to eat and
his loss Of weight. The sur
geons removed his gall blad-
der and the greater part of
his stomach.
Within months this appar-
emily doomed man regained
practically all of his lost
weight and lived in comfort
for many years. Wouldn't you
say he proved the theorem
that while there's life there's
hope?
Like the captain who refus-
eS to abandon his sinking ship
until all hope is gone, / think
the doctor should stand by his
patient in the face Of what ap-
pears to be certain destruc-
ton. If he does, every once in
1 while the unexpected mira
Gle will happen. There's no
greater satisfaction in the
practice of medicine, in such
instances, than looking upon
the happy faces of the pa
tents family and friends.

Suppose you had to face a bill like this?

Would thepicture be as ghtforyou? Stanley
Robinson's Blue Cross and Blue Shield pro-
lection proved invaluable to him-providing
hospital and medical benefits amounting to
$1,287.40 for the extensive treatments and
care his injury required.
Every day, Blue Cross and Blue Shield pro-
vide benefits for hundreds of subscribers.
Patientswith this kind ofprotectionhave pay
only fraction of the total charges for hospital
andmedical care sometimes nothing at all!
That's because Group disqualification Inc.
(Washington's Blue Cross Plan) provides bene-
fits on which there is no fixed dollar limit. These
Service Benefits provide payment in full for
most of the hospital services you need to get
well, regardless of the hospitals charges. Your
Blue Cross coverage begins with the very first
dollar Of your hospital expense.

ZIP Code Numbers

CANTON, Ohio (AP).-The
Post Office Departments Zip
Code system has caused no
thing but h e a dach e S for
Charles Robinson and his sist-
er, Miss Esty Robinson.
The Robinsons' telephone
number is Glendale 4-47O2
and downtown Canton's ZIP
number is 447O2.
Since downtown businesses
started putting the ZIP num-
Der on their letterheadS, the
RobinsonS' phone has been
ringing almost steadily and
people have been asking them
about doctor appointments,
legal matters, dog licenses,
garbage collections, taxes and
clearance sales, to mention a
few items.

DEAR ABBY

DEAR ABBY: ! am Is, sin
gle and people tell me l look
like a young Alice Faye"
I've worked in this office for
two years. My boss tmarried)
tried to kiss me once last
year but l wouldn't let him.
He hasn't tried it since. He
keeps telling me that if / ever
need money he'll give me an
advance on my salary without
any obligation on my part-no
notes to sign or interest to
pay. l could use about $500 to
buy Christmas gifts for my

would be a mistake?

l hate to spoil your Christ
mas, Honey, but he's no Santa

won't have to worry about
wrestling your banker for the
interest.
DEAR ABBY: My 15-year-
old daughter happens to be an
exceptional student. She made
straight AS for three consecu-
tive years, and has been the
recipient Of many honors.
Naturally, / am a proud
mother and have told several
people Of her outstanding
marks and accomplishments.
My daughter has now asked
me not to say another word to
anyone about her marks or
any of her honors. She says
the other mothers are bored
stiff with my boasting and
that, since she herself never
mentions her marks or
achievements, l should not
either. Abby, has the whole
world gone daffy? 1t is a sad
state Of affairs when people
are so jealous and small that
you can't say a good word
about yourself.
BEWILDERED.
Your daughter Is both bril-
liant and humble "a rare
combination. Her qualities
speak for themselves and need
no application from anyone
especially a proud mother.
DEAR ABBY: Three cheers
for the father who called the
police and reported his own
son for drunken driving. /

trayed son" and his friend,

That was in early April, 1912,

Stop Killing
Yourself
By Dr.. Peter ]. Steincrohn

Does a doctor have the
right to give up when past ex-
perience has taught him the
patient hasn't got a chance?
No.
Let me tell you why.
while there's life there's
hope" is as dowdy and old hat
as most of the beat-up old
sayings but it happens to be
true. | think it's the doctors
job to hold out hope to the
very end.
This does not mean that he
should torture a patient who
is in extremiS with needless
tests, blood transfuSions and
other procedures. If were so
far gone, I'd want to die in
peace. I'd want nobody fuss
ing over men and causing me
even more discomfort that l
already had.
What | am referring to is
premature hopeleSSneSS in pa
tients who are not hours away
from death. Let me give you
an exa mple. This surely
backs up the truth of the
saying, while there's life
there's hope"
A CASE IN POINT:
l had been treating one man
in his late Sos for heart d.
sease. He missed quite a few
appointments and when | saw
him at last, he was evidently
a MORALLY sick man. He had
lost over 80 pounds within
months, / could feel a mass in
his upper abdomen, and the
X-rays indicated, according to
the reading of one of the best
men in the field, a large can
Ger of the stomach.
