, • Its Wheels Eliminate Drudgery f*}NE of the most beck-breaking tasks on laundry day is, ^lor many women, that of dragging heavy laundry from one room to another. If you're tired of struggling to get your soiled clothes from tike bathroom to a larger room for sorting, or of carting them from the hamper out to where your washing machine •waits the Monday wash, here's good news for you. With these difficulties in mind, makers of a well-known clothes hamper line have recently created a new model which should eliminate a part of your wash-day problems. The new hamper features ball-bearing wheels, which have been substituted for the usual rear legs. This makes it possible to roll the hamper about the house with ease. It also doubles as a laundry cart if you do your washing at a launderette. The hamper is propelled by fi handle bar which snaps down out of sight when not in use. Wheels are also inconspicuous when the hamper is backed against a wall.

HEALTH TALKS When a goiter develops, the culprit gland involved is the thyroid, it butterfly-shaped structure loc§t- «d h» the neck. Whether'it'is toxic tor non-toxic, whether it is producing symptoms or not, any enlargement of the thyroid gland is : a goiter, the educational corn1- "fnittee of the Illinois State Medical fSociieet y points out in a Health ^falk. * ' The thyroid secretes a hormone, normally present In the body, and ftends it directly into the blood stfeam where one function among pothers is to regulate the rate at 'Which fuel is burned in the body, tf the thyroid is overactive, the fuel of the body is burned rapidly; -.r, If it is underactive, it burns at a ;«v' flower rate. This burning of body fuels is called metabolism. r|: There are several different types Of goiter, but the three most comtnon are non-toxic, toxic and can- *v *erous. ' In the non-tixic type, which is a-f found commonly in the Great Lakes ; hormone, the thyroid gland ^frorfcs to some of the new medication, Tegion, a deficiency of iodine is usually the cause. The hormone •iof the thyroid gland which constains <0 per cent by' weight of ^Iodine. If there is not sufficient | the thyroid gland can be contrdlllodine in the food intake to manu- ed through medical 'supervision. heblM Um rMiuirMl amnniit of I Snmn nor anna rpannnH verv wall overtime and becomes enlarged in futile effort to compensate for the deficiency. Using iodized salt is an inexpensive and efficient method of furnishing an adequate iodine intake. Again medical supervision is warranted because of the possibility of the non-toxic goiter developing into the toxic or cancerous types. In the toxic or hyperthyhoid individual, the appetite is usually excessive, but the fuel is burned so rapidly that the resulting energy is dissipated as heat. The patient loses weight and strength in spite of a good appetite; he becomes hot and sweats on little effort, is usually nervous jittery and has a tremor. The nervousness is usually outward, with visible manifestations. As longetivity increases, there has been noticeable increase in cancers of the thyroid. Because they usually stem from the toxic goiter, it is wise to be suspicious of any swelling or enlargement of the thyroid gland. Parents are cautioned to watch their children for noticeable enlargement of the glands of the neck, since very often an iodine deficiency will cause the early development of goiter. With the development of new and effective drugs, the activity of while others do not. In certain individuals, there is no retardation of the enlargement; the thyroid is not controlled to handle properly its energy giving hormone, and surgery must be undertaken to return the individual to gopd health. Why Cypres! ^asts Cypress wood lasts so long without rotting because normally the pores through a piece of cypress are penetrated with an oily material that forms a natural preservative. If it is removed experimentally with suitable solvents, cypress does not show any exceptional durability. v Modernising Old Chest An old chest can be made into a real show piece if handled properly. Just sand the wood, cut some attractive design from extra wallpaper and glue them to the chest. When the paper is dry, shellac the whole chest and you'll have a bright, new-looking piece of furniture. Left-Over Wall Paper Leftover wall-paper makes an attractive and practical place mat for the table. Cut out several mats with pinking shears for a finished edge and then add a coating of shellac to make them washable with a damp cloth. Iiirtd Csntrbt tfifil To Curb LivtsfMk Lni An insect-control program will do much to cut down livestock losses this summer. Flies, ticks, and mosquitoes play a part in spreading many Infectious diseases of animals, including the malaria-like cattle disease known as anaplasmosis, the so-called sleeping sickness of horses, swamp fever, and bovine mastitis. In addition, insects such as screwworm flies and heel flies are directly respon* sible for costly parasitic diseases. Besides all that, insects cause discomfort that may be reflected in decreased gains and milk production. A general clean-up of barns and premises, including draining or fencing of swampy places where 'mosquitoes and certain other parasites breed, is recommended as the first step. Use of good insecticides of known safety for spraying barns and for spraying or dipping the animals is the next step suggested. In this connection, stock owners are urged to "keep informed of latest developments in the use of insecticides." Research is constantly turning up new fkcts about the value and safety of insect-killing chemicals and it is essential that farmers know the right kind of product to use for each species of stock.

King Philip, sachem of the Wampanoags, was so impressed by the metal that he tried unsuccessfully to back an iron works with a deed of land.
