Aprfl B, 1931 PAGE ELEVEN 1 I IIHIIES HEALTH Determination of Cause ' is First Problem; Worry, - Fatigue Often in "Headaches' Is the subject of the latest bulletin of health ad Tice from the- "state board . of health, and here Is what the board offers: "The most common and Terr distressing form of headache Is known in eTeryday language as sick headache. In it lighter form if 1s spoken of as 'nerroas headache. "In order to prerent and cure these headaches the cause must be known. There are two kinds of causes.' The causes that faror the derelopment of headaches are known as predisposing causes. Those which excite the attack, are the exciting- causes. The . predisposing causes- are hereditary, sex. age and certain constitutional diseases. Sik head aches are frequently inherited. being handed down from, parents for several generations. These hereditary defects are not neces sarily incurable but may be over come by proper Ihring and treat ment. Such headaches usually rhe- gin In. early adult life. Sick headaches are far mote common among women man men. - Anemia, Indigestion; constipa tion, neurasthenia and other dis eases lower the resistance and mar cause a tendency toward sick headaches. ' "The most common exciting causes of sick headaches are in digestion, constipation. Intestin al Intoxication, fatigue, nerTous excitement and emotional dis turbances such as fright,' anger. worry. Any cause sufficient to make a decided impression 1 upon a sensitive nervous system may develop an attack of sick headache. "At first there Is A feeling of Indisposition, fatigue, exhaustion. faintness, loss of appetite, con stipation and sometimes Insomnia for a night preceding, an attack. This is usually followed' by a feeling of numbness in the hands. of a prickly sensation In the fin ger tips or there may be intes tinal disturbances. "The headache may develop within a few minutes to several hours. It usually begins in a small spot on. one side of the head, or in front of the head. back , of the eyeball, on top of the head, or less freqently, at the back of the bead. As It progresses it becomes more severe and mar spread over the entire head. An attack may last one to 4 8 hours and seldom more than three days. In typical eases .the head ache usually terminates in sick ness of the stomach or by nausea and vomiting. After the stomach is emptied the pain usually dis appears. ....---.. . "In order to prevent sick head aches the habits of . the individ ual should be carefully regulated. He should have regular hours of sleep, preferably In the open air, he should avoid physical and mental strain of all kinds. If there la a tendency to sick head aches he should have careful medical attention and all consti tutional defects should be remed ied."

The bottom lands, were all flooded, taking away ' small bridges and fences and washing away plowing and in some in stances some of the spring sow ing, where it laid., in .the low places. Many sheep men were busy rescuing' their sheep- and lambs, where they were marooned by the water. , Wednesday, the Salem milk truck was unable to make its route,: hut the water had receded enough so the school bus could make its Regular trip.

Ternay decided to lead a large scientific expedi tion across the center of the Kala hari through Ngamiland and north to the Zambesi, he did what the chief of any well organized scien tific expedition would do care fully considered the selection of motor vehicles. During a long and arduous exploration' through des olate regions everything depends on a smoothly working transport system. The entire organization is keyed for achievement, and,! the choice fell to Dodge trucks. . Thus equipped, the Vernay Lang Kalahari expedition left Pretoria March 4,' 1930.." for Ca berones, a small station on the Cape-Rhodeslan railway line on the eastern edge of the Central Kalahari, which was the actual starting point of the expedition. On March 1 9 the whole party, consisting of 14 white men and 16 trained natives, left Caberones. Two of the Dodge trucks were assigned . to do relay work. The relay trucks carried up to two tons of load and often moved with edgines boiling st an average speed of oly four miles an hour. Once it required 12 hours to cov er five miles. So enormous was the strain that anyone not know ing the reliability of the Dodges might have expected any moment that clutch, gear 'box, differential or engine would give way but they did not. The advance guard of re lay trucks, fighting thus against tremendous difficulties, made it easy for the combined group of vehicles to proceed at a fair rate of speed. , April 19 the expedition arrived at Ghansi, 412 miles from Caber ones. During this time the relay trucks actually had crossed the center of the Kalahari three times in one month. From Ghanzi the relay party traveled 296 miles to Gobabls- Witvle, the railhead of the S. W. A., line. There the specimens col-' lected were dispatched to - Pre toria. Returning to GhanzL the expe dition entered the second stage of its Journey, proceeding 200 miles northeast through Ngamiland, ar riving. at Maun. May 8. The water less tracts were left behind and, the ground being less sandy, fur ther relay work was ; dispensed with so that progress was made at a fair rate of speed. The third phase of the expedl- tlon, which was by far the easiest. was made over a special ' motor road maintained by the ' Bec- huanaland authorities. The 324 miles from Maun to Livingstone, across the Gosha Hill sand belt. was managed easily with heavily laden trucks In two and one-half days. The remainder of the Journey, including trips to Makarikarl lake and Southern Rhodesia, was made without incident. After six months of the most gruelling kind of work, the party arrived a Pre toria, Its home port, August 8. The Dodge trucks ah d the Dodge car achieved a memorable suc cess in the annals. of South Afri can motor transport and in the service of scientific exploration.
