Oval in shape, snd about one-third as large as Vermont, Corsica is only 50 miles from Italy, 105 miles from France. Italy's island of Sardinia is just seven miles to the south, across the Strait of Bonifacio. A backbone of granite mountains, the highest 8,900 feet, divides the island, the western side sloping sharply to the sea, the eastern easing gently into coastal plains and swamps. Malaria is a scourge of this marshy region. The western shores are indented with bays, several giving safe anchorage to coastins vessels. Much of the island is heavily forested. There are numerous streams rising in the highlands, but none is navigable. To Jhe old Greeks, Corsica was "Kalliste," the most beautiful. To many a tourist the sweet scent of the maquis shrub is the most memorable essence of life in Corsica. TV OM-^ashiftnfrd .

"And you know one can't include girls like that in our parties Anyhow, I doubt if Joan would care about the crowd any more than the crowd would care about her. Poor kid! I often wonder what will becotne of her." """Oh, well," said Emily's house guest, who was deftly making up her face before the mirror. "Old maids aren't looked down on the wsy they used to be. She will probably find a school to teach or a typewriter to pound after a while, -and very likely she'll be happier than you or I. Only I just can't believe Joan is satisfied for it to go that way. I never knew a young girl who didn't like beaus." "Well, Joan doesn't* If she did she wouldn't be so standoffish, would she? Can't you just imagine Clark or David falling for an evening in the parlor?" "But after all," brokevin the soft tones of Joan, who had stepped quietly into the room, "She's only 22 --much too young to have to consider how young she looks." Emily laughed. "Thanks, .old dear!" she said blithely. "But it's these late hours, you know. I admit you look younger, although you're actually a year older, but you'll have to admit that while I may grow old a bit faster I have more fun as I go, won't you?" "Oh, I don't know," Joan sighed. "After all, what fun is there in wasting time on a lot of men who don't really interest you?" "They'll interest you if you interest them." Emily laughed a bit sharply. "But it must be mutual, Joan, dear. There's the bell. It must be David and Clark. Now, he is a real catch, Joan, and every girl at the party will envy me tonight. Won't you go down and entertain them while we finish dressing?" When the gay little party had gone Joan sat out on the vine-screened porch alone lost in thought. She had overheard a part of the conversation about her and it hurt a little. Would a fellow like Clark Howard think her hopeless? When she had said that she didn't care a lot for dances he had asked her curiously, "Well, what would you care to do on an evening like this. Miss Joan?" And Joan answered half bitterly, half earnestly: "Why, I'd like to sit out on the porch with a handsome young man and listen to the radio. And very likely I'd make some fudge." She wondered now if he were having a wonderful time dancing with her pretty sister, who was always clever and amusing. "Is the fudge cooking?." a voice broke in. "And could I substitute for the handsome young man?" "But," exclaimed Joan, with her engaging honesty, "you are the handsome young man! And I can put the fudge on immediately, only--" she hesitated. "Oh, I know. You mean to remind me that I shouldn't have run away from the dance, but your sister had a waiting list of partners. And I really never get a chance to talk to you, you know, since you're so uninterested in our modern frivolities." An hour passed all too quickly for Joan, and when Clark thought he had better get back to the dance he suggested that he come over another evening, and Jopn laughingly agreed. But that was the first of several stolen evenings for Clark and Joan. They found a world of mutual interests and Joan made delightful fudge. Or sometimes it was a delicious dessert with coffee, or sandwiches and tea. They said nothing to the others, Joan because of a shy fear of surprised, sarcastic comments, and Clark because, as he said, "he didn't want to spoil it." But the time came when Clark's visit to Westfleld was about to end. "It's a great little town," he said to Joan, "and I hate to go, but after all, I'm rather anxious to get back to my practice, for I've a new incentive now." When Joan glanced up questioningly he suddenly reached for her hand and drew her toward him in the seclusion of the vine-clad porch. "I've found something in Westfield," he declared, "that I didn't know was to be found anywhere, a genuine, true, sweet, old-fashioned girl. You're the incentive, Joan! Please say you love me too, dear!" That night as Joan entered Emily's room the latter was saying to Martha, "I declare, we've seen practically nothing of Clark Howard these last few weeks and I hear he's leaving tomorrow. I daresay Rose Trennen has got him." "About Clark Howard," Joan put in, her cheeks flushing". "I think I have some news for you. We're to be married Christmas." . An amazed silence, wfiich Emily was the first to break. "Why,. Joan Hayward what a perfectly silly joke! My stars, it must be true!" for Joan was beamingly showing a new diamond nag on her 4left third finger. "Well, then, all I have to say is this, that if a man like Clark Howard has fallen for Joan, it's all tommy-rot about the modern girl being preferred. The old-fashioned girl must have a racket I should know about 1" Dr. Barton " Released bjr Weatarn Newspaper Union. LOW BACK PAINS Most sufferers from low back pa'.r. naturally reach for help., to relieve pain rather than search for the cause. They will take painkilling drugs, use heat and electricity, hoi baths, massage, and other methods oi treatment. In casa? where pain is due U strain or other injury the use of heat to muscles that are stretching the spine away from the point of injury is go&d treatment but getting the strained or sprained parts back into tjieir proper position would get the patient well in much less time. In speaking erf low back pain I have usually pointed out that most cases are really due to infection-- tonsils, teeth, gall bladder, intestine-- and the remainder to injurystrain and sprain of certain joints, injury to the disk or cushion between the bones of the spinal column. Sometimes the strain op sprain is due to poor posture. Dr. P. M. Girard, Dallas, Texas, in Archives of Physical Therapy, points out that while low back .pain is present in the spot where the infection or injury occurs, that pain also occurs in places distant from the point of infection or injury. This is known as a "referred" pain and because it occurs at a distance from the infected or injured spot, the cause may be overlooked. On the other hand, pain may occur in lower back and down back of thighs and be due not to injury or infection at point of pain but to growths in spinal cord, rupture, appendicitis, turns or bends of uterus, growths in ovary, and stone in bladder. A slight injury due to swinging a golf club or making a misstep may tear a muscle, rupture a ligament, or injure the joint holdingv one spinal bone to the next one. The more the subject of low backache is investigated the more physiare coming to believe that, poor posture--letting the body slump or sag--is a more frequent cause than was formerly thought. This is the reason that when injury is the cause (as shown by relief from pain when at rest) and both patient and physician are unable to find any history of injury, they forget about poor posture as a cause. • • • Overweight and Gland Troubles ] •; IDHUKCH SEKVIOKS 8L Mary's Catholic Masses: Sunday: 7:00, 8:30, 10:00, 11:30.

There was a time when the only method of reducing weight was to eat less food, take more exercise, or both. This is still the best method and the only one used in about nine of every ten cases. However, now that it is known that if certain glands do not manufacture enough juice, an accumulation of fat will occur, physicians are able to inject or give by mouth enough animal gland extract to overcome this lack and so the fat is removed. Generally speaking, where there is lack of thyroid extract or juice, the excess fat accumulates in all parts of the body. This occurs six times as often in women as in men. If lack of pituitary extract, excess fat accumulates across abdomen, shoulders, chest, upper arms, upper legs and hips. It usually starts in the teens and the youngster wants large quantities of sweets. Lack of sex gland extract results in excess fat across abdomen and more particularly across hips and buttocks. This is common following menopause in women. There are cases where the excess fat is due to lack of extract in more than one of the glands. When the lack of gland extract has been definitely shown, the use of gland extracts under the supervision oT the physician ^witl^ give Jftfcnsburg - Spring Grove Road results particularly when there is reduction in the food intake also. However, for an overweight who "thinks" his excess fat is due to lack of gland extract, trying to treat himself is dangerous as severe illness, collapse, and death have followed self treatment. Remember, gland extracts wholly are needed in less than 5 per cent of overweight cases and, in part, in less than 10 per cent. Then there are the "cures" for overweight that so many try because ihey want a short and easy road to normal weight. Some of these "cures" where the drug used is known to the physician and its reaction, even if dangerous, can be controlled, have been used in "extreme" cases where the individual was 100 to 250 pounds overweight.

Cheadeata Increase Flow of Resin The labor shortage and the urgent need for production of more resin and turpentine for war uses focus attention on the discovery by the U. S. Forest service that 40 per cent sulphuric acid solution or a 25 per cent solution of caustic soda (lye) will greatly increase the gum • flow of both longleaf and slash pines Research shows that the 40 per cent sulphuric acid solution applied to fresh streaks or faces will increase the average annual flow of gum by 25 per cent. Furthermore, experiments in 1942 with a large number of. other chemicals Show that a 25 per cent solution of caustic «oda will increase yields as much as 75 per cent.
