Mail to Royal Yeast, Huntingdon Gleaner;â€"After a wedâ€" ding party lasting three days and nights, a young couple of Deca, Hunâ€" gary, have "gone to live with mother" for the rest of their lives. The bride, Erzebet Damokos, 14, is in the happy position of having to do no housework at all until her motherâ€"inâ€"law dies, as local tradition holds that young marâ€" ried couples should ‘be free to enjoy themselves. Therefore, the parents do all the work, and with reasonable luck the bride needâ€"not bake bread or perâ€" form any other household task until she is well into the middle life. The success of this party was achievâ€" ed only through many hours of preâ€" paration and work by the school teachâ€" ers and many thinks are bestowed upâ€" on these persons working for such an outstanding organization.

"Experience shows that the complete removal of the tonsils lessens the numâ€" ber of throat infections and should therefore help in suitably picked rheuâ€" matic cases. Removal of nomal tonsils even in rheumatic children should â€"not be advised." Dr. Reginald Lightwood in The Lanâ€" cet, London says:â€"â€""It has been shown beyond reasonable doubt that the usual sequence or course of acute rheuniatism in children consisis of three phasesâ€" throat infection, period of quitiness or rest from throat symptoms, and rheuâ€" matic attack. Since it is probably corâ€" rect that without tonsilitis or sore throat, here would ke little rhesumatism, the first problem is to prevent throat infection in rheumatic children. Curiâ€" cusly, the most severe attacks of rheuâ€" matism seem to follow mild attacks of tonsilitis. We can do most for the rehumatic child at the time when he develops acute throat infection. In adâ€" dition to painting the throat with a silver solution and potassium chlorate by mouth, there should be rest in bed until the pulse is down to normal." If every attack of tonsilitis were folâ€" lowed immediately by an attack of rheumatism, parents would not hesitate about having tonsils removed in childâ€" ren who have a sore.throat frequently. Unfortunately the sore throat may be so slight that when an attack of rheuâ€" matism appears some weeks later, the sore throat is not remembered, and the tonsils are therefore nos biamed.

Forgetting the incident for several years Bob finally recalled it this summer and began to seculate on the chance that there might ‘be something up there. Taking his own plane he landed in the region and hit the tundra, wanderâ€" ing around just as bad his predecessor of 150 years before. "I found it," is the simple way that Bob describes the reâ€" markable feat of fying 2,500 miles and mushing for weeks to hit one small mineral occurrence. "But it was not the banklet. Nevertheless, the descrip-i tion was excellent. The quartz conâ€"| glcomerate was there and so was the formation. The quartz fragments had been cracked ard recemented but she didn‘t carry." At some point between these now well knownr of the Arctic the Englishman stated he had seen an oCâ€" currence of quartz conglomerate, the quartz inclusions being rounded. He remarked that some of the quartz pieces had been cracked and recemented. The whcle occurred in an iron formation. Prospector Always Looking for Hints News) The instinct of the prospector is never dormant. Bob Cockeram was on a visit to England several years ago and, brousing around on some old street, locking at the bookstalls, he picked up a volume printed about 150 years ago, relating the experiences of an Englishâ€" man who had wandered the Barren Lands. This individual, who was apâ€" parently a bit of a geologist and botanâ€" ist to judge by his story, had covered the ground between Coppermine River and Great Bear Lake. ‘Describing the flora and fauna he also remarked on rock outcroppings. How Reference in Old Book Set Bob Cockeram Studyâ€" ing. (Registered in actordance with the Ccpyright Act.) The points to remember from the above are that normal tonsils, even in a rheumatic child, should not be reâ€" moved, but when there are repeated sore throats and tonsilitis, removing the tonsils helps greatly in preventing attacks of rheumatism.

This great care following tonsilitis or sore throat in a rheumaâ€" tic child is of course to guard the heart, as the greatest single cause of heart disease is rheumatism and the greatest single cause of rheumatism is sore throat.

There is rothing remarkable in the suggestion that Europeans should cross the Atlantic accidentally or on purpose long before the days of Columbus. In the history of Captain Cook it is reâ€" corded that he found an island where all the natives were‘of the same tribe except four. The difference in their appearance and their language was so striking that Cook, thinking they might be captives of war,; made enquiries. He was informed that these four men had been blown.ashore in a canoe several years before in a violent storm. They gave Cook the name of their home isâ€" land and he wus astounded to learn that in this frail vessel these four men had voyaged nearly 1,500 milles. They also told him that they nad not inâ€" tended to land at this particular island! Cook checked on ‘their statements later and found them to be perfectly correct. It has taken a long time to get the world to believe that Christopher Columbus was not the first white man to view the Western world. Lief Erickâ€" son row has the inside track yet it is questionable if he owns the distinction of being first. In the Cuban Islands is a tribe that has records of its anâ€" cestors landing there many years before Christopher and his crew. There must be in the literature of exploration some curious books lying about in old shops and attics, tales of men who have been places and seen things. Their successors on the same trail may claim to be and believe themâ€" sevies to be the first to ever put a foot on it. The world gives them credit for a distovery that is not their due. A classic instance is the voyage of Macâ€" kenzie, the Hudson Bay factor who gave the great river its name.

One or two would drop out of the canoe at a bend in the river with the casual remark that they meet it later.in the day. And they would. They knew where the inland lakes were and how far they could cut across country in order‘to keep up with the expedition. They would give him landmarks half a day ahead as rendezvous. skill of the prospector, but it brings up another point. Is there any place in the world that someone nas not been before? In all the literature of the Far Northâ€"ard the writer has read scores of books on the subjectâ€"the adâ€" venture of this Englishman who exâ€" plored the Barrens beyond the Arctic Circle 150 years ago has not been mentioned. How did he get there? What was he doing? What did he seek and find? It is ali mysterious yet if.his existence and his adventure need any confirmation Cockeram can supply it because he checked up on it.
