Christmas Business

Receipts at the Cass City postoffice during the Christmas seasonthis year exceeded those of a sim-ilar period of a year ago by ap-proximately $245. This is a toprecord for the office.

Cancellations ran as high as15,000 in one day which is the lar-gest single day record and is al-most 4,000 more than any day in1948. /

The large volume of mail thepast few weeks was handled moreeasily than in any recent year.This is because the public depos-ited their mail early and were socooperative in sorting and bundlingtheir greeting cards and messages.

Postmaster Alice M. Bigelow andher corps of assistants are very

'grateful for this splendid coopera-tion of office patrons.

Danger of FiresWorse on Farms

Suggestions AdvancedFor Preventing BlazeOf an estimated fire loss of 11,-

000 lives and nearly 700 milliondollars in property and resourcesindicated for the year 1949, a greatpercentage of these losses will bemade up of fires on the farm.

Because of lack of fire protectionor, adequate fire-fighting facilities,farm fires in almost every case arethe most disastrous, because ofthe almost inevitable complete losswhich results.

Already the national board of fireunderwriters has reported propertydestruction from fire in the amountof 398 million dollars, 8.9 per centbelow the same period for 1948.But even if a downward' trendshould continue for the remainder

CHIMNEY TOP

FLUE LINING

FLUE RIN©

STOVE PIPE

of 1949, this year's losses would ap-proach the 1948 all-time high ofmore than 711 million dollars.

These figures mark 1948-49 as themost disastrous period in a decadethat has recorded five billion dol-lars in fire destruction. Between1940 and 1948, fire loss soared 132per cent.

As the "prime cause" of most ofthe 800,000 fires annually, the Boardlists "plain carelessness and mis-use of heating and lighting equip-ment." The leading single cause offire is careless smoking and use ofmatches, accounting for 16.68 percent of the total destruction. How-ever, over the past ten years, thecombination of defective chimneysand flues, stoves, furnaces, boilersand their pipes, and sparks on roofahas been responsible for 20.47 percent of all fires reported.

Proper safeguards in installationand maintenance of heating equip-ment, chimneys and flues, safetyofficials say, will prevent fires ofthis type. Many communities al-ready protect their citizens withordinances requiring the installa-tion of flue linings in all newchimneys. One**effective means offireprooflng chimneys involves theuse of clay flue lining which formsa single, continuous noninflamma-ale unit inside chimneys of all;ypes. The indestructible clay lin-ng prevents weather, heat andcorrosive smoke and gases fromating away the mortar between thejricks of the chimney. This elimi-nates the danger of flames readi-ng combustible materials through;racks between the bricks.

Authorities urge homeowners tomake a careful inspection ofchimneys and heating equipment.

'Open House5 OnceMarked Holiday

Senior members of the familylament the passing of the 'good oldday' when New Year's calls werevery stylish in America.

'Open House' on New Year's Daywas introduced into this country bythe Dutch who settled in NewAmsterdam and were accustomedto receive their Jriends who droppedin to offer the compliments of theday. Such calls were very informal,made and received in the spirit offriendship and sociability; refresh-ments appropriately consisted ofhomemade snacks and centeredaround a large bowl of punch, madeaccording to the host's favoriterecipe.

The custom grew with the countryand, eventually, the nation—or theincreasingly populous communitiesthereof—outgrew the custom. Dur-ing the latter part of the nineteenthcentury, it was customary for thosewho intended to receive their friendsand acquaintances to send 'at home'notices to the newspapers so thatwould-be callers might plan accord-ingly.

The majority of such calls weremade in the spirit of friendship andsociability which had given impetusto the custom in the first place.However, human nature being whatit is, receptions were often 'crashed'by strangers attracted by the pros-pect of free punch: likewise, hostsand hostesses were frequently em-barrassed by guests who,' makingtheir seventh or eighth call, arrivedin excessively boisterous or mellowmoods.

These abuses contributed to theabandonment of the publically announced 'open house' and revival othe very informal New Year's callexchanged only among intimatestoasting the New Year around avery private bowl of puneh.

Foot Defects„ Recent physical examinations ofstudents at Santa Barbara college,University of California, showedthat 12 per cent of the men had footdefects, compared with 2& per cento£ the women students.

malleable NickelDid you know that pure nickel

is so malleable that it can be fabri-cated into tubing finer than thestinger of a mosquito?

"X" Disease

Recent observations seem to dis-count the theory that malnutritionmay be a cause of X disease, a live-stock health bulletin reports. Thismalady, which causes thickening ofthe skin and emaciation, has beenspreading among cattle in theUnited States and is responsible forheavy losses in some herds. Veter-inarians are now. investigating thedisease, but so far they have beenunable to determine what causes itor how it spreads.

Utility PolesThe three leading Lake states in

production of utility poles in 1947were Minnesota, Michigan and Wis-consin, in that order. Their totalwas 301,500.

Soybean AcreageThe I1.I million acres planted

to soybeans in the U.S. In 1949 isthe lowest since the prewar crop of'41. Acreage is down S per centfrom last year.

SELECTING AND S E W I N Gclothes for children can be lots

of fun. When dressed properly andadmired by all who see them,mothers feel that the reward isworth all the time consumed.

More important even than havingpeople admire your children is thesense of grooming, poise and well-.

•being that is being developed in•your youngsters as you chooseclothes for them which meet thatstandard of fashion lightness.

True, you don't have to worryabout hemlines on little girl's dress-es as about your own, or about theextent of the cuff on a little boy'strousers as your husband is con-cerned about his, but still there's acertain amount of fashion whichpeeds consideration.

Certain styles may be better onyour little girl than others, for theydo have small individual figureproblems. Then, too, colors can beas important to them as they are toadults. Some do more for them thanothers, as you can easily find outjust by trying on a few things.

Your little boy and girl can prob-ably look just as adorable as someyou've seen pictured even thoughtheir clothes budget is limited andmother does the sewing. Tastefulselection of colors and fabrics and

grooming sense . ..

proper styling are the keys to cloth-ing children attractivly.

An armload of cheap fabrics thatfade and thin with each laundering,skimpy styles or too Isrge clothesand hit-and-miss sewing without re-gard to what's good on the tot willdo nothing more than cover him.Good fabrics chosen with a keeneye as to what's right in style andcolor, sewed with care will makeof the youngsters angels even whenthey're not!

If you start esrly to instill an ap-preciation of Quality, workmanshipand styling in your youngsters,you'U have given them qualitieshard to duplicate.Take Tips FromTop Designers

Any mother who sews for herchildren would do well to copy some

with well styled clothes.of the trade tricks to top children'sdesigners. For one thing, good qual-ity dresses, trousers and other ar-ticles of clotiung are never skimpy.You'll find skirt fullness becausedesigners take tthe required twowidths to make them perky. Deephems are employed because they

Be Smart!

The beautiful simplicity ofthe necklines of the new wooldresses and the smartness ofthe many new types of upstand-ing' collars combine to give aperfect foil for ornate necklaces.Setting: the pace are the longstrands which are looped asyou desire. Equally good for thejewel neckline or a collareddress is the choker, usuallyhighlighted with a pendant orpin-like cluster. Barrings andpins repeat the motifs as de-sired. Typical examples aresketched, the choker of jadeand pearl, with a pendant ofjade, coral, pearl and rhlne-stones on gold filigree. The longnecklace has opals with pearls,rbinestones and a touch ofgreen.

For Rough Wear

This young gentleman is welldressed for school or play inhis smart two-button jacketmade of an all-rayon worstedtype fabric. The fabric, wovenfrom Avisco yarns, is color-fastand completely washable, andwill withstand all sorts of roughand tumble wear. There's aliberal sleeve and seam allow-ance to let the clothing growwith the boy.

make skirts fluff out, not becauseyou will want material for lengthen-ing.

Collars should be appropriatelynarrow, and tiny, well puffedsleeves are essential for chic. Inboy's clothing, the trend is to simu-late daddy and big brother as muchas possible with good tailoring.Pants are full enough to drape OPto have well pressed pleats. Shirtsare sewed carefully so they can looktailored and correct in even smalldetails.

It's discouraging to see childrenoutgrowing clothes so rapidly, andfor this reason many mothers liketo make clothing a bit on the largeside so the youngster can grow intoit. There's no better way to startan inferiority complex in the youngthan to have them improperly fitted.Whether they tell you or not, theyare aware of how people look atthem, and how their friends reactto their clothes.

Clothes often lose their1 style be-'cause they are practical, and it'sfar more satisfying to have themfun to wear and be admired, thanto shy away from putting them on.[t's easier to'spend the few extralours doing more sewing than to.undo damage to the spirit.

It's better, too, to have a fewcarefully sewed clothes than acloset full of hastily thrown togethergarments. The latter never washwell, they're in constant need 'ofmending, and the style is impairedunless proper sewing techniquesare used.Select Fabrics, FastenersFor Washing Ease

New designs and colors are avail-able in fabrics every season, buthere is little change in actual'abrics to use for children's clotti-ng. Novelty fabrics are for adults,be they men or women, .but themore conservative materials looksetter on the youngsters.

For play "clothes, select the sturdymaterials which wash easily, andare 'Sunfast: corduroy, broadcloth,duck, denim, gingham, poplin, per-ale, calico, rayon, seersucker andotton gabardine. In dress clothes,inen, chambray, pique, dottedwiss, organdie, sheer cottons, fineawn a .d muslin may be employed.Although some textured mate-

ials, such as corduroy, are favoredor play clothes, the smooth fabricsre much more popular for dress.

The smooth surfaces mean easyironing and less opportunity forpicking up dirt while being worn.All fabrics chosen should be sturdyenough ' to hold buttons, fastenersand such essentials. Don't be afraidto-experiment on the different typesof fasteners being shown eventhough you may never have seenthem used on tot's clothing. Zippersare now coming out on little girlskirts and boy's pants. Elastic isused for waistbands on some over-alls or slacks even for the two andthree year olds.

Hammered-on snaps are verypopular for clothing of this type be-cause the children can dress them-selves with ease and thus developself sufficiency early. Then, too,they save mother a lot of time inbutton hole making and button sew-ing since they're of a more durablenature.

Most children love pockets, andfrequently they add much to thestyle of the clothing, so don't elim-inate them because of the extratailoring needed. If nothing else, Itteaches them file handkerchiefhabit!

Choose patterns for youngsters ascarefully as you do your own. Meas-urements are, of course, different,but they are important for choosingthe size which fits. Chest, waist andlength measurements are most fre-quently used, and you should havethese on hand before buying.

Advertise it in the Chronicle. The want ads are newsy, too.

economics publication:1. Avoid extra handling of hay

by having . hay chutes directlyfrom mow to feeding area.

2. Have one chute for each 10to 12 cows.

3. Walls in front of mangers areblockades. With no wall, the haycan be pushed along the feedalley and into the manger.

4. Feeding time is generallylowest when loose hay is fed, butwhere there are no obstructions inmow floors, feed alleys andmangers, chopped hay is easiest tohandle.

5. Make only one trip to the moweach day.

Whole or cracked corn, millet,buckwheat, and sunflower seedscan be placed beneath the shelterfor the benefit of quail, pheasants,and songbirds. Without an ade-quate supply of grit, birds may beunable to digest their food. Forthis reason, fine gravel or preparedpoultry grit should be mixed withscratch feed grain, cracked corn,or other grains.

Shick also suggests a piece ofsuet, covered with a wire mesh andtacked to a tree to attract cardi-nals, chickadees, nuthatches,juncos, tree sparrows and bluejays. Feeding trays can be erectedon posts for songbirds. -Sunflowerseed, cracked corn and similarfeeds are good. The tray should be

White Light for LaundryDaylight bulbs for the electric

fixtures that supply light for thehome laundry center are recom-mended by home managementspecialists. They explain that thesebulbs are made with a blue glasswhich gives off white light likenatural daylight instead of the yel-lowish light given off by ordinarybulbs. Daylight bulbs make iteasier to detect spots and stainswhea laundering or ironing clothes.It also saves scorching during iron-ing because the first yellow tingeof scorch shows up more clearly.

WILLIAMSBURG, VA. — TheColonial capital of Virginia now250 years old is not content with itswealth of history'and tradition, noris it prone to just settle down anddwell on its past.

The past means everything, ofcourse, to Williamsburg, but theold town isn't letting the vision ofthe past obscure its vision of thefuture. Instead, the old town isstill growing.

Naturally, its growth isn't quitelike that of other communities, forWilliamsburg is unique in all theworld. It is the restoration of anentire town, just as it looked and,to an amazing extent, just as itlived in those days when it wit-nessed the first great scenes lead-ing to U.S. independence.

New-old BuildingsTo mark its 250th anniversary,

two new-old bulidings were dedi-cated; one an arsenal dating from1716, the other a guardhouse firsterected in 1755.

Two centuries ago, Williamsburgwas the center of the political, so-cial and commercial life of Vir-ginia—the largest, wealthiest andmost populous of England's Ameri-can colonies.

Following the establishment ofnear-by Jamestown as the firstpermanent English settlement inAmerica in 1607, the harassed set-tlers built a tall stake palisadeacross the entire Tidewater penin-sula in an effort to curb1 the In-dians and protect the settlementsof the peninsula.

But the palisade did not guaran-tee peace for Jamestown. Finallyafter years of pestilence, massa-cres, fires and other privations,the general assembly passed an actin 1699 directing the building of acapitol and the city of Williams-burg on. higher ground, six milesfarther inland.

That same act gave explicit di-rections as to how the city was tobe developed, one of the earliestexamples of city planning in Amer-ica.

Streets were carefully laid out,with the pleasant addition of spac-ious public greens to set off theimposing, public buildings.. A cer-tain uniformity of building was re-quired and the foresight of thoseearly day planners two and a halfcenturies ago is evident today inthe dignity of the restored city.

Two-sided NatureAs capital of the colony, Williams-

burg had a two-sided nature. Dur-ing, normal seasons it was a quietcollege town, county seat and gov^ermental center, but during the"publick times" when the house ofburgesses was in session and thecourts convened it became a teem-ing metropolis notable for "the pro-digious number of coaches thatcrowded the deep and sandystreets." Plays, balls, entertain-ments, fairs and horse races wereheld and the • money business ofthe colony was transacted.

Eighty years during that periodsaw the spark of liberty smolderand finally burst into flame asmembers of the house of burgesses,America's first legislative assem-bly, stoutly maintained the colo-nists' rights.

Such patriots and great Virgin-ians as George Washington, Pat-rick Henry, Edward Pendleton andThomas Jefferson were familiarfigures along the streets. It was inthe capitol building in Willamsburgthat Patrick Henry made .hisfamous "Caesar-Brutus" speech,shouting, according to tradition,"If this be treason, make the mostof it," in protest to the stamp act.

Mixed doubles were bowled atthe bowling alley on Tuesday, De-cember 27. Virginia and DelbertStrickland won the first prize, of$25.00, with 1277 totals. Ella Vanceand Vern Gallaway won the secondprize of $15.00 with 1179 totals.Pauline Johnson and Jack Hubbardwere third with 1177 for $10.00 andGenevieve Huff and Guy Landonwere fourth with 1173 for $5.00. Ifthere are enough people wishingto bowl, mixed doubles .will bebowled again on Friday, starting at7:30.

(Concluded from page one.)•lost in other mid-west states, hedid carry Michigan, his home state,by a respectable margin.

# * *It is the thesis of Mr. Summer-

field that an important differencehas developed between the Eoose-belt and Truman administrations."With. Koosevelt -we were drifting

_ towards . socialism, but withj Truman there is no drifts-it's a'headlong rush," said .Summerfieldat the strategy meeting in Chicago."The American people can onlysense this, but the member ofcongress, the governors and thepoliticians everywhere know it.If the Democrats make any gainswhatsoever in the house and senatein 1950, there is likely to be a pell-mell rush to get on the Socialistbandwagon."

The basic predicament of theRepublican .cause, as interpretedby many students is the fact thatmany, wage-earners and farmershave' associated the Republicanparty as the emblem of "selfishinterest" as contrasted to theliberal position. enjoyed by theDemocrats.

In advocating more benefits forthe masses President Rooseveltand his Democratic party suc-cessors have identified the Demo-cratic party as the popular liberalcause of the hour. For a good gen-eration there has been a steadymovement towards centralizationof power in government, both stateand national. This trend has beenaccelerated by two World War ex-periences, climaxed by a ten-yeardepression between wars, andrecently the historical epochalevent of the atomic bomb. Facedeverywhere with individual and na-tional insecurity, American citizenshave sought to solve the problemof insecurity by going to Lansingand Washington increasingly foranswers to these problems.

* * *The result has been that the

trend towards centralization ofpower at Washington has beengreatly accelerated in recent yearsand with new welfare spendingprograms already approved, to-gether with others advocated, astrong state socialism appears tobe in prospect, according to Mr.Summerfield.

In opposing state socialism underan economic planning-type of na-tional administration, Summerfieldwould place the Republican partymore on the side of traditionalliberalism in behalf of rights of theindividuals. As contrasted to moreand more centralized control atWashington, whereby the wants ofthe individual would be guaranteedby the government from cradle tothe grave, the Republican causewould be closely identified withsurvival of the American free en-terprise system as linked to op-portunities of the individual.

* * *Whether the Republican party

can shed the shell of its reactionarylabel and assume the role of aliberal leader will be .an interestingdevelopment in 1950 to appraise.

At any event the "welfare state"may. have met a new knight inshining armour.

End of Livestock PlagueSeen in Drug Discovery

Several millions of square milesof disease-ridden country in Africaand other tropical regions may Bemade more livable for domesticanimals througk a new drug,called, antrycide, discovered byBritish scientists.

A single injection of this drug issaid to protect cattle, swine,horses, pigs, camels and dogsfor several months against certainforms of trypanosomiasis, or sleep-ing sickness, a deadly blood^para-site disease spread by tsetse flies.The" drug also helps to cure ani-mals already suffering from thismalady.

Large-scale tests of antrycideare now being made by veterinaryresearch men in a settlement onthe Nairobi-Mombasa road in Ken-,ya.

If the tests confirm the reportedvalue of the drug, it should bepossible to make a much-neededexpansion in meat and milk pro-duction throughout, the plaguedarea. This could be done by im-,porting high-producing breeds ofcattle which have been unable tosurvive in bush country because oftheir susceptibility to sleeping sick-ness. Cattle now raised there arenative dwarf breeds which are'un-productive though relatively resis-tant to this disease.

ways to improve production meth-ods and working conditions fortheir employees, automobile firmsare experimenting with the colorand finishes used in their plants,In one plant, machinery and walls,were painted a restful green, theceilings, white.

In a quietexperiment, the firm left one cor-ner ol the plant and its machineryunpainted. Where workers in therest of the plant began wearinggood clothes and kept their workplaces spotless, those in the un-painted section wore coveralls orother work clothing, and neededconstant urging to keep their workareas clean.

NATURALLY

THE clock has had the privilegeof striking midnight and being

the first to announce the arrival ofthe New Year for only about six cen-turies. Before that, man measuredthe hours in several different ways.

Primitive man measured thelength of a day by the movingshadows which reflected the sun'sdaily course across the heavens.

The first timepiece was probably apole and a stone—the pole to cast ashadow and the stone to markwhere the shadow fell when the sunwas highest.

As man became more accus-tomed to regulating his activitiesaccording to specific Intervals oftime, he devised the "water-thief,"the hourglass, and finally the me-chanical clock.

Even the simplest "water-thief"measured time accurately becausea regular interval of time passedbetween the moment it was filledand the moment it became empty-—and this interval could be timed bythe sun.• The hourglass was better thanthe "water-thief because it wascheaper, it would not freeze or spiEand it did not require refilling.

R'eal, mechanically o p e r a t e dclocks were not constructed untUthe thirteenth century. The word"clock" has been derived from theFrench "cloche," which means bell,and probably owes its connectionwith timekeeping to the custom ofringing bells to announce the pass-ing of the hours.

Outlook for 1950Concluded from page 1.

should fall off, barring someweather, • insect or blightcatastrophe.

13. Poultry -and dairy productswill especially increase in volumeduring 1950 with prices averagingless than in 1949.

14. Farmers will continue towork to .hold present subsidies. Itis popular to' criticise the vastamount of crops which the Govern-ment owns or is making loans on,but this surplus in storage may bea great blessing when the nextcrop failure or war comes.

Taxes.16. The Federal Budget will be

increased 'during 1950 over that for1949.

16. Over-all Federal Taxes 'willnot be increased during 1950 andthere may even be some readjust-ments to encourage venture capital.Moreover, some of the nuisancetaxes may- be eliminated or re-

I duced.17. The long-term capital gains

tax of 25"% will remain un-changed.

18. There will be many increasesin local and state taxes, and morereaching for relief by "sales" taxesor other forms of raising neededfunds,

Retail Trade.19. Goods on counters will be of

better grade in 1950 than they werein 1949.

20. Markdown sales will continueduring 1950 as consumer spendingslackens due to a decline in em-ployment and other factors.

21. The dollar value of all retailsales in 1950 will be moderatelydownward, and the unit volume ofretail sales will also be less inIS 50 than in 1949,

22. Less will be spent - on newbuildings and equipment by storesand factories during 1950.

Foreign Trade.23. Our exports will be down

1 during 1950'and our imports "willbe up during 1950, comparingboth with .1949. This will partly beaccounted for by the devaluationof the English Pound • and otherforeign currencies.

24. Foreign credits will continueto'be granted during 1950, "butsome of these will be 'direct byAmerican : business firms and in-vestors. If our Government willget foreign governments to agreethat such investments will beexempt from any new tax or otherlegislation by the foreign countryin which the investments aremade, considerable progress wouldbe noticeable along foreign tradechannels. .

25. American interests will havemore competition from foreignproducers of raw materials and ofmanufactured goods during 1950than they had during 1949. Thiswill benefit some American con-cerns, but he harmful to others.

26. Fear of war with. Russia willcontinue during 1950. World WarIII will come sometime; but it willnot start 'during 1950. Those inlarge vulnerable cities should usethese years of peace to get somesmall farm or country home towhich they can go in case of war.Such places will he almost unob-tainable when war actually comes.

Deficit Financing,27. The supply of money will be

increased during 1950, hut the priceof Government bonds will notchange much one way or the otherduring 1950.

28. In addition to the anticipatedFederal deficit the $3,000,000,000being distributed as insurance re-funds to veterans will be mostlyspent.

29. Congress will not change theprice of gold during 1950.

Stock Market.30. Most stocks will work up and

down in about the same range dur-ing 1950 as during 1949.

31. Stocks of companies with as-sets mostly in natural resources,known as inflation stocks, shouldhave the greatest demand.

32. There will be more invest-ment buying for income during1950 and utilities and companiesmaking • labor-saving machinerymay be more popular than otherindustrials or railroads.

33. The .wisest investors willkeep a fair amount of their fundsliquid throughout 1950 pending thegreat break in stock prices whichwill come some day.

Bonds.34. High-grade taxable corporate

bonds bearing low coupon ratesshould continue at about the sameprices during 1950, but of course,they will sell for much lowerprices, when money rates increase.

35. 1950 will see a further fadingoff in certain tax-exempt bondsdue to the new Housing AuthorityObligations to be issued during1950.

38. The Federal Reserve willcontinue during 1950 the samegeneral policy which it followed in1949.

37, The importance of diversifi-cation will be given more attentionin 1950 and wise investors willwatch their'bond maturities to seethat they are either short or

systematically staggered. „Real Estate.

38. The city real estate outlook,is uncertain. It .should continue tohold firm throughout 1950 due toless available rental space causedby pulling down old structures to

I save taxes and to provide parkingspaces. Owing to high costs arid thefear of World War III, there will belittle' inclination t9 build new cityproperty.. On the other -hand, the

j continual movement out of our[large cities—in the interest ofI decentralization—may cause pricesto soften.

39. There will continue to be afair demand during 1950 forsuburban real estate with ashading of prices for large places;but the residential construc-tion boom should continue well in1950.

40. The demand for large com-mercial farm acreage will be less

jduring 1950; but small sustenancefarms, especially those locatedclose to established communities,will hold up and, perhaps, increasein price.

41. There will be some decreaseduring 1950 in industrial and pri-vate building. The cost of suchbuilding will decline a little and the

(.quality of workmanship will im-prove. There should be an increaseduring 1950 in publicly financed

(building.42. There will not be much

change in business rentals during1950, , but residential rents willaverage higher in 1950. Only asproperty owners are grantedhigher rentals will there be, morehouses built for rental -purposes.

43. Mortgage interest rates dur-ing 1950 will continue about thesame as during 1949.

44. The growth in industrial pen-sions should help real estate salesin Florida, California, New Mexicoand Arizona.

General Business.45. Many business concerns find

their operations sliding down to-ward the break-even point. Therewill not be as much margin be-tween costs and selling prices dur-ing 1950 as during 1949. Unem-ployment will gradually increasedue to the installation of , labor

j saving machinery and other causes.46. Military preparedness will

continue to bolster general busi-ness and employment during 1950,but this is not a healthy develop-ment.

47. Excluding Government ownedcommodities, the physical stockpiles of manufacturers will remainabout the same during 1950 asduring 1949.

Politics.• 48. 1950 will be an election year.

The Republican Party will remainin the doghouse. The Administra-tion will continue to talk radicallyagainst Wall Street and the so-called "Selfish Interests," but atheart the Administration will befairly conservative. Its bark will befar worse than its bite.

49. The Administration willcontinue to be sympathetic toorganized labor unless someone likeJohn L. Lewis goes too far. In thatevent, such a man will be made thewhipping boy, but •with the con-sent of other prominent labor

j leaders.50. The Congressional Elections

of 1950 will not change the politicalstatus of Congress to any greatextent.

Illustrations used by the lecturershave been published in a specialbrochure sent to every dentist whohas enrolled in the course.

BUTTE DES MORTS, WIS.-r-It there's anything to an ancientcustom, a local man is potential-ly one of the luckiest men onearth.

He is Paul Gray, who collectswishbones. At latest count hehad about 13,000 of them.

The custom of snapping wish-bones, historians report, is anancient one. As early as 322B.C. the Etruscans had a "henoracle." A special god wascalled upon to grant favors andthe collarbone of a fowl wasplaced on an altar in the sun asan offering to the god. From,this the practice of snappingwishbones is believed to haveoriginated.

Gray is a painter and paper-hanger by tr^ade. He started hiswishbone collection some 18years ago when he lived atOshkosh. "For no good reason atall," he says, he started throw-ing wishbones of dinner fowl ina- box. Friends and relativessent him more and, before long,his collection was really under-way.

To Shrink Some CancersNEW YORK. — The American

•cancer society has reported thediscovery of two new hormonesthat can shrink certain types ofcancer.

How long the shrinkage may lastwas unknown, but these hormonesappear to have opened a new fieldof medicine.

The hormones are the same sen-sational -remedies that earlier werediscovered to give dramatic reliefto arthritis, gout and rheumaticfever. They are cortisone and acth.the first a product of the adrenalglands of the back, the second thegovernor of those glands.

The society said the cancer re-port -Was made by Doctors O. H.Pearson, L. P. Eliel, Rulon W.Rawson, Konrad Dobriner and C.P. Rhoads of the Sloan-Ketteringinstitute and department of medi-cine of memorial cancer center.New York.

They said the cancers were notcured and it remains to be seenwhether complete cures can be ob-tained. Eight persons were giventhe hormone. One with breast can-cer and the other with cancer ofthe prostate showed no visible im-provement.

The other six had. lymphoid tu-mors, which means cancers affect-ing the lymph glands in variousways. The report said there wasdramatic and progressive decreasein size of all SJK. The decreaseswere in enlarged lymph nodes andspleens.

Four of these had one of thecommon forms of leukemia, knownas chronic lymphatic leukemia orblood cancer. One had Hodgkins'disease and the sixth a growthknown as lymphosarcoma.

None of the six were in dyingcondition. In two the cancers re-mained shrunken for 10 weeks. Inthe others the cancers started en-larging again, but showed signsof shrinking with a second courseof hormones.- This two-time goodeffect is unusual in cancer.
