So scrapbook this case if you want to win friends, be popular and avoid the divorce court. Teenage girls spend too much time on cosmetics, thinking that eye shadow, false lashes and rouge are the chief way to win husbands. The method below is far better! By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE K-531: Lorna H., aged 17, is a high school senior. "Dr. Crane," she began, "I have always been quiet and shy. " That is partly because I was awkward and taller than my classmates in grammar school. "But now I find I am about average in height, yet my earlier shyness trng, held me back from making friends. "So can you please give me some shortcuts to popularity? POPULARITY SECRETS The secret of winning friends consists of realizing that everybody you meet is interested in "Me-Here-Now." > So smile (which is a nonverbal compliment) and also utter a spoken bit of honest praise. "An acquaintance that begins with a compliment," said Oscar Wilde, "is sure to develop into a real friendship." Sanford-Brown college in St. Louis offers its students a card containing "5 Tested Friend Makers," as follows: (1) "I am proud of you! (2) "What is YOUR opinion? (3)" If ypu please!" (4) "Thank you!" (5) "YOU!" Every college might profitably imitate Sanford-Brown, for when teen-agers can learn how to win friends and popularity, they are better equipped for happier adulthood than by earning a college major in History, Math, Chemistry or other departments. And I am not exaggerating, for popular people zoom to the top. Then they can always hire competent associates who are specialists in their fields but probably not very popular folks! Girls like Lorna should clip this column and memorize its contents. Then they can literally outbid the beauty stars and miniskirted classmates, for most men don't marry Miss Americas. * And the wives who never enter into divorce proceedings have used some or all of those' 5 points in the Sanford-Brown formula. If you teen-agers (or oldsters) don't know how to carry on an interesting conversation, then use No. 2 in that formula and ask your companion for his or her opinion on any timely topic. To stay up-to-date on current ideas, make it a habit to read this newspaper more thoroughly. For example, most of you teen-agers focus onthe comics, the sports section and maybe a quick glance of Page One. So learn to be your own professor! Assign yourself the daily task of dipping into at least 10 pages of your daily newspaper, even if you read only one item on each. Pick out at least one of the editorials, plus the medical column and this psychology column, as well as noting if the stock market went up or down. Within 15 minutes, you can then have 5 or 6 current topics about which to start conversation and ask your escort: •' What is YOUR opinion?" Remember, lazy folks, don't become popular I For you must plan ahead! And memorize the proper techniques for conversation; then practice them on everybody you maet till you are deft and graceful. Men may date a beauty star once but they don't come back again unless a girl can make it easy for them to carry on effortless conversation! So. send for my booklet" Formula for Being an Interesting Conversationalist," enclosing a long stamped, return envelope, plus 20 cents. (Always write to Dr. Crane in care of this newspaper, enclosing a long stamped, addressed envelope and 20 cents to cover typing and printing costs when 'you send for one of his booklets.) r\T.

Northern Illinois Gas Company Serving mare than a million customer s FROM THE FARM BEWARE THE TINY TICK City-dwellers heading for the woods this spring could be headed for trouble -- if they meet up with the tiny tick. Each year, scores of unwary woods-walkers bitten by ticks contract a terrifying, frequently faltal disease called Spotted Fever. Up to 30 percent of the victims die from the disease. Shotted Fever -- one of a family of serious ailments called Rickettsial diseases -- begins with a severe rash, fever and cough. After the patient lingers in a state of weakness and apathy for some time, he develops delirium, convulsions, stupor and finally lapses into a coma. Death usually results u'onr advanced brain damage and circulatory failure. Even when the tick is not a carrier of Spotted Fever, it is dangerous. Jts venom is capable of causing another frequently fatal condition called "Tick Paralysis." Starting in the lower extremities, the paralysis slowly works up to the trunk, arms and finally the brain. Children are the most frequent victims. Hardly bigger than a hangnail, ticks are six-legged when hatched and develop two more legs as they grow to adulthood. There are some ten varieties infesting almost every region in the world. Although the wood" and dog ticks common to our area most frequently carry Spotted Fever, other varieties carry a host of Rickettsial diseases ranging from "nine mile fever" in the western Lnited States to South American Spotted Fever in Brazil. All ticks have one thing in common, however -- they are bloodsuckers. Most frequently they transmit disease by picking up the infecting organism from a rodent or other animal and carry it to man. If you are bitten by a tick, you'll know it. There is the familiar red swelling at the point of entry, followed by itching and burning. Common sites^ of entry are the pubic region; armpits-, and especially tba scalo and hack of the neck. Your first impulse will be to pull out the tick vigorously -- BUT RESIST THAT IMPULSE! You may succeed in removing the body, but invariably leave the venom-filled, germfilled head to continue its dirty work. The several accepted ways of removing ticks depend on immediate facilities -- and pain tolerance. 1. Hold a lighted match or Wed. June 18, 1969 - Plaindeoler - Sec. 2, Pg. 3 cigarct at the point of entry and burnjt out. 2; Apply oil to the tick.. This interferes with its respiration and, thus, will bring about easy removal with gentle pulling. 3. Attempt to pull it out gently, without any preliminaries. With this approach, a tweezers is far more effective than fin-- gers. Thus far, no available antibiotic is effective against Spotted Fever. However, highly effective vaccines given by vour doctor can impart complete immunity. The only real way to avoid tick trouble is to avoid tickinfested woodlands. If you insist on answering nature's call to these areas, make certain you inspect your body for tick attachments every two hours. Above all, act IMMEDIATELY if you detect a tick bite...first by attempting removal, second by. checking with your doctor.. As the old woodsman's warning so wisely puts it: "Be quick with a tick -- or you'll sure get sick." BE CAREFUL WHEN FILLING SPRAY TANKS If you don't have a positive shutoff valve on your puniping system, be careful not to walk away and leave the hose in the tank after filling your sprayer, says University of Illinois weed specialist Ellery Knake. Even with a valve it's safer to remove the hose from the tank to guard against any malfunction. With some pumping systems it's possible for the contents of the tank, including the chemical, to siphon into your well. Another way to avoid the accident is to fasten the hose at the top so it does not extend into the tank. Some farmers who have accidentally siphoned chemicals into their wells have cleared the water by pumping the well until it is sufficiently clear of chemicals. However, it is much easier to prevent the accident than to correct it, says Knake. FLEA BEETLES Watch tomatoes, potatoes and sweet corn for flea beetles. These shiny black beetles jump when disturbed and leave white scratch marks on the leaves of plants. Control rtbem by spraying plants with carbaryl (Sevin). Use 2 tablespoons carbaryl per gallon of water.

You can economize and still serve your family wholesome well-balanced meals if you occasionally spark imnus with lowcost meat and macaroni dishes like Treasure Trove Medley.

A little sour cream blended with the soup brings out the flavor of the remaining colorful ingredients; diced bologna, macaroni, shredded carrots, green pepper, and dried dill leaves. For dessert, what could be better than an old-fashioned fruit cobbler, the kind grandmother used to make with gobs of pour cream spooned over its bubbling warm richness. Make it with canned cherry pie filling and a rich biscuit topping.
