Available in a wide selection of distinctive body ...styles, the new models go on display in Packard dealerships throughout the nation the week of Jan. 17. Highlight of the new Packard models is the luxurious Four- Hundred, a Packard hardtop. The Constellation, another smartly styled hardtop, is the powerful star of the Clippe'r series of cars. In addition to featuring top V-8 engine performance, Packard and Clipper Custom models strike the most dramatic note in this year's new model parade with the introduction of a torsionlevel ride. Packard torsion bar suspension, which completely replaces the conventional front-coil and rearleaf springs,' brings to American cars the first major improvement in riding comfort and riding safety since the introduction of front-coil springing in 1934. The torsion-level ride is standard equipment on all Packard models and on Clipper Custom models. With the torsion-level ride, Packard engineers have made great progress toward solving numerous safety problems. For example -- precision headlight aiming in night driving. The torsion- level ride keeps a steady beam from headlights on the road at all times. Likewise, steering geometry does not change with load changes. ©The family of all new Packard V-8 engines, in combination with the new Twin-Ultramatic transmission, endows in the new Packards and 1955 model Clippers maximum get-away performance from standing starts and safe passing ability in all speed ranges.

This constriction is followed;-by a dilation, which results in a spasmodic flow of blood to the skin. In this spasmodic contraction and expansion, the walls of the capillaries, or tiny blood vessels become weakened, permitting the blood plasma to. seep through into the surrounding tissues. Some remaining blood cells pile up to form an obstruction that blocks the circulation. The blood supply is then cut off and gangrene is frequently the result because the tissues die froril lade of oxygen. . The toes, ears, nose, and fingers are most susceptible to frostbite. Thus a person exposed to the cold should heed any feeling of numbness as a signal that cirfculation should be restored to the affected part. While it is important that the blood should be kept moving in its circulatory process, this restoration should be done gradually. Rubbing or massaging are to be avoided as this proves harmful to the already affected tissue. Do not rub the affected part with snow. Avoid the application of direct heat. Do not, for instance, apply a heating pad. If possible, warm clothing or bed clothing should be used to cover the affected areas or the victim of exposure should lie inf a well heated, but not hot, room.} There are three major degrees" of frostbite> In the first degree, there is swelling of the affected' area with pain. There may be redness, sweating and increased temperature. There is no loss of tissue and in mild cases the affected area may be returned to normal inar^short time. In the more serious eases of the first degree type, small blisters form and the person is incapacitated •because of the severe pain and stiffness of the affected part. In second degree frostbite, these symptoms are associated with a dry gangrene which may result in the loss of the affected area, such as a finger or toe. In -third degree frostbite, all these symptoms are manifest to a more marked state, but, in addition, there is extensive gangrene which is usually wet, and large segments of an entire extremity, such as an arm or leg, ate involved. High fever and severe prostration are present. And the amputation of. the entire extremity is inevitable. Hunger and malnutrition make One more susceptible to frostbite. Fatigue and exhaustion are factors which reduce the body's vitality and slow up the circulat ion. Warm clothing is. a strong pre- ^ entative against frostbite. It Should be of the type to permit circulation of the air and to dry perspiration, since dampness is also a consideration in frostbite.. Some persons are more susceptible to cbld temperatures than others, but everyone can take the .necessary precautions of keeping comfortable with the elements by wearing proper clothing and eating the essential foods to maintain body stamina. Avoid frostbite by preventing it.

Green St. McHenry, DL Overeating is oftW a hiatter of deliberate choice and obesity a mark of distinction, says Dr. E. H. Rynearson of the celebrated Mayo Clinic. Hi ere are races and families, he explains, that take pride in hearty consumption of rich foods which serve as plain proof to the world of personal prosperity and social significance. Often overeating is caused also by emotional disturbances, but it is not glandi&r in origin. It is a matter of nerves, and a psychiatrist could probably help to cure it better than a dootor who prescribed medicines to reduce the appetite. Many people eat too heartily in order to cheer themselves out of a depressed state, to give themselves confidence, 6# to compensate for personal fan* tag. ,;,v Why not sculpture your £tc* by thinking kind thoughts Instead of buying plaster at $5 per Jar*' He is indeed a rare persctt^ who, travelling in a strange land, is not delighted to encounter someone from his home town.
