(Paul Jenkins photo) YOUR BODY ROSEBURG,' OREGON These health articles are written and paid for by Dr. B. A. SMITH, Chiropractic and Naturopathic Physicion, 1S00 Garden Volley flood, in the interest of public health and to help you understand the body function. Look for these informative articles every Saturday. There are two forms of diabetes, one entirely different from the other. The form considered more serious is diabetes mcllitus or "sugar diabetes." This is not a disease of the kidneys but of tho pancreas. The internal secretion of the pancreas, insulin, which reg ulates the amount of sugar In the blood, fails in this function, and the body does not utilize the sugar properly. The olher form Is call"d "diabetes Insipidus." This is a di sease of the pituitary eland and apparently not concerned with in , gar metabolism. It is not definitely known as to the cause of this disease. That it Is a disease of the nancreas is quite de'inllcly established and ex actly what structures In the pan creas are involved is also known. Why this fnilure of function result ing in insulin deficiency is yet un known. Diabetes Mcllitus at one time was considered to be a kidney di sease because its most common s-vmptom is sugar in the urine. This urinary sugsr, however, Is present because the su?ar of (he blood la abnormally hteh; and the excess has to be excreted by way of the kidneys.

W-D Fire Department Auxiliary Sets Dance Women of the Winston-Dillard Fire Dept.

Money derived from the dance will be used for inside and out side improvements at the Fire Hall in Winston, Mrs. Davis said. At' J turn results from an Inability of the body to store or to oxidie sugar; and this inability is due to a lack or insufficient supply of in sulin, which is secreted by cer tain specialized cells of the pan creas. Since most cases of sugar dia betes develop after the age of twenty, (approximately sixty per cent of the cases are over forty years of age, and hctween twenty and forty years of age) we must consider that some form of circu latory disturbance may be a fac tor in this deficiency of insulin. In fact hardening of the arteries Is a commonly associated condi tion. Diabetes in children Is not as frequent, but when it does occur it is often very severe. The onset of diahetes mcllitus Is usually insidious. The Individual may become excessively thirsty and drink quarts of water daily. This Is natures effort to dilute the sugar In the blood. The victim may become very fat, and may remain so, but obesity need not always be present. Heredity Is also a factor and may be responsible In about twen ty five per cent of cases (Pd. Adv.)

'DADS AID DRIVi The Douglas High School Dad's Club is sponsoring a March at nlmiti twtnfit nuarA Hnnr anH pie social at the Douglas High School tonight at 8 p.m. , Nine Yoncalla' Boys Keeping Inadequate Fire Equipment In Readiness For City Use A group of nine Yoncalla boys, ranging in age from IB to 18, has taken the lead in fire-fighting training in the city and have built the nucleus of a good suppression crew, according to Stacy Adams, acting fire chief. Adams, in describing activities of the junior volunteer fire depart ment this week, said it was nec essary to get help from the high school students because townspeo ple refused to turn out for fire drills. The fire . suppression situation, dim a year and a half ago, now has improved to a great extent. Last summer, the city council found ways in -the budget to raise $1,000 for construction of a small building in which the city's old fire truck is now housed. But a year ago last summer, voters in the city voted down two proposals to build a fire sta tion and to purchase a more mod ern fire rig. The fire chief was interviewed by Mrs. George Edes, News-Review correspondent. Adams said the boys nave made do with the old equipment. Under his supervision, the crew has re furbished equipment to a point where the firemen says the town "has been able to keep down loss es." . - He pointed to recent examples. Recently, the Yoncalla Garage, owned by Yoncalla Lumber Co. and leased to the Rural Electri fication Administration as a ware house, taught fire. A bunch of tires stored in the building caught fire, raising terrific heat and producing a skyful of black smoke. , Volunteers, which included townsmen, were able to put a "quick stop" to the tlames be cause the equipment had been put into good shape. Another time, a house was sav ed after only about $1,000 dam age. Last summer the fire sta tion and fire truck were voted down, several houses were de stroyed by fire because of inad equacy of equipment. All but one of the boys can't qualify yet as firemen, for they aren't old enough to carry acci dent insurance written for fire men. Adams said plenty of towns people usually are on ftand when fire docs strike, and they have been manning the equipment. The boys' improvements to the fire equipment have included re- Bill Would Make PUC Position j Elective Office SALEM Ml The sponsor of a bill to make the office of state public utilities commissioner elec tive instead of appointive told a Senate committee Frjday that elec tric consumers "are not adequate ly protected from the influences of well-organized utility monopo lies." . . Sen. Monroe Swectland, Milwau kie Democrat, said the office now held by Charles H. Heltzcl is "al most autonomous" and 'the con sumer "is under a disadvantage because he is not adequately rep resented." Sweetlnd recalled that the 1931 Legislature repealed the law pro viding for etection of the commis sioner. He said his objection is not aimed at Heltzel, but at the state's system of regulating utilities. He said the power companies col lected $4,600,000. in surcharges in 1952 and 1953 without a hearing being held before the PUC. . Sweetland brought court action to get refunds of the surcharge to consumers, and the case now is in the courts. Elmer McClure, State Grange master, said he doesn't think the PUC's budget is large enough. Most of the criticism of the PUC. McClure said, stems from his lack of enough money to "pursue some rale cases to their conclusion." He said this lark has forced Heltzel to drop some cases. Eugene Girl Is Freed Form Slaying Of Father , EUGENE Ifl A circuit court jury Friday night freed Ella Louise Starmer, a Eugene high school girl who had been accused of man slaughter in the butcher-knife stab bine of her stepfather. The verdict of innocent was re turned after about an hour's de liberation. It took four days to try the case. Miss Slarmer, 17, testified that she did not remember what hap pened alter hearing her -mother call for help at their home the night of Oct. 1. The mother, Mrs. Anne Swan berg, testified that her husband Archie Swanberg, 38, had been beating her when she called for aid. The girl was 16 at the time of Swanberg's death. Boy Dies Of Injury When Struck By Spear GRANTS PASS 11 A little-boy game of throwing a spear at a cardboard box target was fatal Thursday night to Tommy Cerny, 5.

Survivors are his mother, Mrs, Harold Fahey, his step-father, his brother and an infant sister. KILLED BY TRAIN EUGENE W A Southern Pa cific passenger train, the Klamalh, and an automobile collided at an intersection here Friday, killing the motorist. He was Clyde Bowman of Spring- i field, an employe o( the Eugene Water and KV'ttric Board. He was killed almost outright when thrown I from the car. packing of the volume pump on the fire engine, wnicn naa peen leaking badly under pressure. A warning light was put on I separ ate circuit on the truck and the red flasher light, which had burn ed out, was replaced. They refinished ladderi, repaint ed some tools, helped paint the new firehouse and checked , hy drants and risers. The boys have had 13 drills since Sept. 21, meeting every week. They also have practiced with hose-reversing adapters and a home-made hydrant gate, added just recently. They've received ' two lectures recently on fire - fighting techniques. Adams declares the issue, of purchase of a new fire truck isn't dead yet, and said he expects some action to come up in . the city council. "With the right kind of equip ment," he stated proudly, "we d have a fire department second to none." - Lifelong Rice Vaileyite Dies Ervin Rice, 70, .lifelong resident of Rice Valley, north of Oakland, died at a Roseburg hospital early Friday after having suffered a heart attack on Wednesday.
