NKW ENGLAND ELMS
Springing from a Pil ßTim loam,
Elms on either side the gate
Kept our first New England home
Modest, white, inviolate.

Straight as sentinels they stand,
Guarding all the fruitful sheaves
Os this peaceful farming land.
fair and high the elm tree grows,
Lifting toward the shining spheres
Symbol of the prayers that rose
From th ehearts of pioneers.

ORIENTAL SILHOUETTES
Tall cherry trees beside a deep lagoon,
In spring, show white against a gold

An old pagoda— see it oddly lean
Towards moonlit trees that form a

Upon a log. a gray and lonely drake
Is backed by shadows from a moun

Fair Fujiyama puts her crest to sleep
Upon the blanket blue of heaven’s

Against a setting sun of flaming red.

CHILD GUIDANCE
By Frank Howard Richardson, M. D., F. A. C. P.
Birth Injuries
One of the saddest of the many sad
sights that the doctor sees in the
pcourse of his day’s work, is the hnen
tally retarded child who owes his al
most hopeless condition to some injury
sustained at birth. While by no means
all mental retardations come from
this cause, enough of them do to give
us serious pause, and make us search
for some means of prevention.
No, strange as it may sound, it is toy
no means always, or even usually, the
attending doctor who was to blame.
Quite as frequently it is the mother
and father who by their remissness
allowed complications to take place
that might have been avoided had
they engaged their doctor in time,
given him all the information he
would have asked for, and followed his
instructions.
S •
And then, even strange, it not in
frequently happens without any de
monstratrable cause—apparently no
one was at fault. It is quite as likely
to happen from too precipitate a labor,
as from a difficult one in which in
struments were required. But this
is by no means as common as are
those instances when pre-natal care
and preparation, might have helped, or
entirely prevented the condition.
Don’t drag these children from doc
tor to doctor. Follow the instruction
of your own physician. He’ll ask for
consultation if he oelieves this holds
out any hope of improvement.
Ductless Gland Disease
Sometimes Self Limited
Ay LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.
IT IS a common error to think
that if any of the ductless glands in
the body go wrong, they are going
to be that way indefinitely or until
something is
done about it.
Like all other
structures of the
body, they have
cycles of activity
and of sluggish
ness, and many
of the diseases
which they pro
duce are self
limited. In other
words, end spon
taneously with
out treatment.
As an evidence
of this we may
take the familiar
disease of goiter.
Most people be
lieve. so tar as I can tell, that unless
something is done about a goiter it
is bound to get worse. But to get
another view, go back to some of
the first cases of active goiter (ex
ophthalmic goiter) that were de
scribed—by a German physician
named Basedow nearly a hundred
years ago. Basedow lived in a small
town, and was able to observe these
patients over a long period of time
He lived before the days of surgery
and. therefore, the goiters could not
• be removed. He says frequently in
his reports that he thought this pa
tient or the other would die within
a *.hort time, and that the fellow
townspeople thought they were
crazy, but in every instance he re
cords a complete recovery. The dis
ease simply ran its course and the
gland returned to normal activity.
The same is true of other glands.
One of the recently described condi-
Questions and Answers
Question —It’s easy to find material
about the physical care of the child—
the Children’s Bureau at Washington
is really a wonderful help—but where
does one find literature about dis
cipline?
Answer—The Chldren’s Bureau has
some very good pamphlets on emo
tional training and discipline, as well
as o. the physical care of children.
Write them for a list of helps along
this line.
With the Sack

George Hall underwent an operation
at Alaria Parham hospial, and his con
dition was said to be favorable today.
Mrs. Young Improving
Mrs. W. M. Young was said to con
tinue to improve at Jier home on
Belle street, following a critical illness
of some weeks.
Undergoes Operation
Miss Irma Mae Rogers has been dis
charged from Maria Parham hospita*.
where she recently underwent an op

Has Tonsils Removed
Miss Mabel Jane Neathery had her
tonsils removed at Maria Parham hos
pital, and was said to be doing very
nicely today.
tions due to disorder of these glands
is the opposite of diabetes in that
the pancreas secretes too much in
sulin. It is interesting to note that
the first case was described in 1923,
a year after the use of insulin be
came general. It was not until in
sulin was used that we knew tho
symptoms of an overdosage—which
are combined feelings of hunger and
weakness, combined with a low
amount of sugar in the blood.
An American physician living at
Birmingham, Ala., was consulted la
1923 by a patient who had never
taken insulin, and yet had the exact
symptoms of a dose of it—weakness,
nervousness and Irritation about an
hour before dinner and supper, re
lieved by taking a soft drink. On a
diet which consisted in a large
amount of sweets to counterbalance
the excessive secretion of insulin, he
made a symptomatic recovery.
A number of cases have been re
ported since then and, in fact, the
diagnosis has been made, to my
knowledge, over the telephone from
the recital of the patient’s symptoms.
There are tnany people who have al
ternating waves of increased secre
tion of insulin and decreased secre
tion, so that their diet has to b®
varied according to circumstances,
which usually can be determined by
a recital of the patient's own symp
toms.

Adjustment Plan and Bank
head Bill Both Have Same
Goal in the End
College Station, Raleigh, May 28. —
The cotton adjustment program and
■the Bankhead bill are working toward
the same goal or benefitting the
farmer by bringing production into
■line with the demand, according to
Charles A. Sheffield, of Sta Ste Col
lege.
Mr. Sheffield, who has charge of
the cotton program in North Carolina,
explained that the Bankhead (bill sup
plements the voluntary program and
does not supplant it. Its purpose is
to protect the voluntary reducers by
limiting the production of those who
did nots ign contracts, hes aid.
He has spent two weeks in Washing
ton helping the division of crop esti
mates in the Department of Agricul
ture calculate the county allotments
under the aßnkhead bill. As soon as
the calculations have been made, the
county allotments will be announced.
Then the individual allotments can be
worked out by county] agents and
committeemen.
Sheffield pointed out that the tre
mendous amount of work involved in
checking accurately the past cotton
histories of all the counties has delay
ed the announcement of allotments,
but such checking is necessary to give
each county its just amount of the
State’s allotment.
Some of the rental checks have al
ready been received by North Carolina
growers who signed reduction con
tracts and others are scheduled to get
their checks soon after their con
tracts have beer., accepted by the
Washington, office of the AAA. The
first batch of checks aggregating $50,-
000, went to Hoke county, which was
first to complete the revision of all
contracts in line with figures used by
the State Board of Review.
The total rental payments for North
Carolinans will run to a:out $3,220,000
£iome $50,000,000 in all is to be paid the
cotton farmers of the South in rentals
All checks should be received before
the last of June, Sheffield predicted.
Carelessness Is
Blamed For Many
Os Forest Fires
Dull? Dlupntch Oarrna,
In Ihe Str Walter Hotel.
BY .1. C. BASKERVILL.
Raleigh, May 28.—Careless smokers
constituted the greatest destructive
force to the forests of North Carolina
from fires in April, according to the
■monthly report of W. C. McCormick,
assistant State forester in charge of
forest fire control for the Department
of Conservation and Development.
More than one-fourth of the forest
fires occurring in counties organized
for protection against the ‘red
demon” during the month of April, ac
cording to the report, were started by
negligence of smokers. Ninety-nine
of the 389 fires reported during the
month were blamed on careless smok
ers.

WesPs y lost to tne Ace, ana me
battle was on. North was confident
from the first that it would be im
possible for West to 1 guard both
hearts and one of the other suits,
as either spades or diamonds. Also
that East could not guard both
spades and diamonds. The declarer
was confident that by watching the
discards he could tell which side suit
would yield him the grand slam
througrh a squeeze..
First 6 clubs were run North let
go his 10 of hearts on the fifth trick
and his 6 arid 9 of spades on the
sixth and seventh. West discarded
his 3 lowest hearts and the 2 of
spades, which made North contiilent
that West was short in spades and
held the Q of diamonds. East dis
carded 3 hearts and the 2 of dia
monds, as if ' e held a stop to spades.
Next North ian off his 3. good
spades. West followed suii on the
first 2 spades, then at the tenth
trick West had to let go the 5 of
diamonds.- He could then be read
as having the K of hearts md fust
2 diamonds. East followed suit on
all 3 spade leads, showing that he
held the missing j of that suit and
just 2 diamonds
The test was easy All North had
to do was to lead his Ace of dia
monds. followed by his r, Know,
mg that East and West held 2 dia
monds apiece, ot course he put up
dummy's K, dropping the Q from
West's hand, and leaving the .1 good
for the thirteenth trick and his grand
slam, whirli netted 150 points more
than South would have made at 7-
