This is a widespread situa-
ton and one that should be
changed, in view Of generally
crowded conditions in the
nations schools.
High school students must
gain in habit Of independent
study; they must learn to
use the library and they must
learn to do sufficient think
ing to translate information
into knowledge. They must
have time and opportunity
during the school day to gain
such experience. It can be
done.

Instead Of assigning five
major subjects to students
with average grades. the
school should place them for
one hour a day in groups Of

a primary anemia. II is due
to some deficiency in the
secretions Of the stomach
glands. There is an absence
OF hydrochloric acid and
sometimes trouble in the
spinal cord. Basically, the
treatment consists Of giving
liver or BIZ injections.
But secondary anemia Is
something else again. Our
Job is to find the cause. Is It
bleeding hemorrhoids? Is 1t
due to loss Of blood from an
unsuspected cancer? Is 1t due
to tapeworm? Is 1t due to
bleeding so small In amount,
yet occurring every day, that
the chronic loss Of blood adds
up to anemia?
Consider this letter:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I
have been suffering from
rheumatoid arthritis for
many years. On and off I
suffer from anemia which
nothing seems to help. ! have
taken iron and BIZ, but my
hemaglobin and blood count
remain low. Then. for no ap-
parent reason, when my ar
Thrills improves for a while,
the anemia goes away with
out taking treatment. Can
you explain?-Mrs. T.
ANEMIA IN rheumatoid
arthritis patients can be
stubborn. One explanation
may be that the patient has
minimal hemorrhages due to
taking salicylates for his
rheumatism. When he stops
taking this medicine, the
blood regenerates because
there is no longer any daily
loss.
People have q tendency to
minimize anemia. II your
doctor says you are anemic,
it Is your duty to ask him
land his duty to answer)
what Is the cause. II 1t is
due to a deficiency in your
diet, that can be easily rem
edied by eating sensibly. II
1t is due to bleeding hem
orrhoids, operation will cure
the anemia. But. as you can
see, it is the diagnosis that
is important: finding the
cause. Otherwise, scatter shot
treatment often gets us no
where.
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I
have a problem that is driv-
ing me crazy. My three-year-
old daughter keeps running
a fever on and off. My pedi-
african has told me not to
worry. What bothers me is
that he has never even asked
for a urine specimen. Do you
think that's right?-Mrs. K.
HERE'S A SWITCH: Ask
your pediatrician for q con-
sultation with your family
doctor. Any good practi-
tioner knows that urine ex-
animation is important. He
will want to rule out the
possibility Of cystitis (blad-

Typical of the general situa-

was opening day at West Rock
vile Junior High, where more
than 1000 teenagers crammed
the building to such an extent
that 81 desks had to be re-
claimed from the warehouse.
Principal L. D. Dubois said
that the crowding will be eased
by the end of this month, when
two additional classrooms in a
new wing of the building will
be ready for use. The two
rooms are part of a much
larger construction project now
underway, but not scheduled
for completion until next year.
Mr.. Dubois, echoing the
sentiments of the school board
staff, said: I've been around
for a great many first days
of school but I can't recall a
smoother opening than this
one. We kept expecting some
major problems in adjusting
the big influx of enrolment,
but the desk shortage was
really the only difficulty and
that was solved in short order.
