The Darlington League has survived both wars and a depression, and although it has been a way of life outside of Bowmanville, Bowmanville, it has never been able to succeed within the town itself.

How much of this is a "natural part of aging"? How much, if any, can be controlled or reversed? Research has been turning up ways to replace some of the active diseasefighting diseasefighting properties of the thymus. Many elderly people are found to be deficient in zinc and the thymus, especially when healthy, is full of zinc. Malnourished children have shown improved immunity when given zinc even before protein and carbohydrate levels have been corrected. Immunity plays a major role in the rale at which our bodies age. Zinc is not the only nutrient showing potential as an anti-aging agent. Vitamins E and C, in different ways, lend to add to our power to fight infection and disease. Your local health food store is a good source of information on zinc and other immunity-enhancing nutrients. As the population of "baby boomers" grows older, these natural health helpers arc likely to become very important. * courtesy of the Canadian Health Food Association and tills newspaper. Oh, to be a teenager again - at least physically! Young smooth skin, shiny hair, strong muscles and bones and lots of energy. Aging seems to take its toll on each of these youthful assets. There's another part of the body that age shrinks and diminishes and that's the thymus. This is a two-lobed gland located high in the chest cavity behind the lungs. It secretes hormones which help circulate and nourish white blood cells call T lymphocytes, which are able to fight and kill destructive "invaders" such as virus and disease cells. Apparently the thymus' T lymphocytes also enhance other immune system functions. A teenager's thymus is in its prime but advancing age reduces it to a fraction of its youthful size and effectiveness. It has been suggested that shrinkage of the thymus, with accompanying weakening of immunity "forces", is very much a contributing factor in the aging process. Lessened resistance to disease obviously means a greater number of deaths and more long term illness S|iinihiiml |,y !?C CHbc jKjmltlj SJjoppc I lf> King Si. W.
