The Women's Institute of the district presented their first en- tertainment this evening: A Hal- loween social in the community hall down the river road. At- tending. one felt at once that Octo- ber's last night had cast it”: in- triguing shadow before to allow us those elements of mystery -the goblins. ghosts and others of their kin, which in fancy lend a strange air of enchantment both for child- ren and adults, to the Ha1lowe'en night . . . A moon just past it's fullness beamed with benign ex- pression for our going, pointing

up the dark of the tapering "vars" and spruccs and casting bewilching lacy shadows along

roadways and paths . . . "They're not real, real,” granddaughter whispered. when she first beheld some of these ifolks-of-the-night. "No." she nodded. with a smile of satisfaction ''I know - they're only make-believcl". O 0

A patient grandfather not too susceptible now to the wllchcry of any night. kept company with our small fellow in the house across the lane. then into his rest. A fair. lovely Autumn nighl. - a moon in keeping - a tantalizing touch of frost in the air . . . a congenial gathering an interesting and amusing entei-tainnient - lunch - cncouraging cash returns and "a good time was had by all" made of it. a worth-while incident in the liife of the recently organized Community Women's Institute.

O U I

And what of this day on the farm, when a sun of October dap- pied the mill-pond and rested ten- derly upon the hills? More drab now lie the fields upon which in the loneliness of the season herds and flocks pasture. "The Fall is always more loncwmc-lak than any av the other seasons." Pat, a recent visitor offered, as he drew a companionable pipe with James to mind happenings from the past . . . It is usual for James to en- dure a period of preparation be- fore the two can settle down to it.

It is wise to write on the lab- els of jellies, preserves. pickles, etc., the year in which they were put up. This insures using the old- er preserves first. and nothing will be spoiled and wasted from being kept too long.

TREATMENT OF TUBERCULOSIS VVITH DIET

-293::-.:4:se.g .

In the early days of treatment for tuberculosis, the biggest part of the treatment, aside from bed rest, was plenty of food and fresh air. Many patients, because they rested all the time and ate fats and starclics and fat-fomiing foods, gained consklerable weight. Tlicy looked and felt well. and were allowed to return to their homes. Unfortunately. their weight increase was mostly fat and many soon had to return to the sanatorium.

A few years later. in addition to rest arid good food, 5 little exercise (was allowed. about 15 minutes daily. mid before they were dis- icharged they were up on their feet ldoing light work for four to five

hours daily. Very few of those who could do the four or five hours light work had to return to the sanatorium.

Then came along a method Vnf shortening the time needed in sanatorium by compelling the dis- eased lung to rest by means nf pneumothorax (in which air or gas is pumped into the bag in which the lung is enclosed.) This supply nf air lasted a certain length of time and kept the lung from being too active. which would prevent. healing.

Finally surgical methods - cut- ting out ribs, and cutting nerves supplying the affected lung -were used to rest the lung completely.

It will come as a surprise to many of us to learn that the old treatment of diet is coming into use again In Diseases of the Chest. C'al:n,r:o. Dr. B. P. sandler reports his results with a low car- bohydrate Istarch) and high pm- tein diet given in 56 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. 20 of whom had far advanced disease and is moderately advanced dis- ease. Thirty-five of 58 patients showed significant improvement as measured by cough. amount of sputum. weight. bodily strength. breathing capacity. fatigue. ap- petite. stomach and intestinal symptoms. mental alertness. mor- ale. nervousness. headache. and chest pain. Seventeen showed im- provemcnt by x-ray examination

The beneficial effects of the diet -less potatoes, sugarfbread, and more meat. eggs, milk. fish-kept the sugar in the blood at nr near the normal level. It has been found that a large percentage of tuberculosis patients do not handle starch foods in a normal manner.

It is interesting to see diet treatment being used again in the treatment of tuberculosis.
