Shades of today's modem world. Telephones now grow out of ears while at home, in the office or in a vehicle. No doubt boaters, horesback riders and snowmobile fans will all start car rying cellular phones. Imagine a lost hunter or hiker calling to say that he's standing under a tall snag although he has no idea as to his location in the wilderness. I guess our Creator didn't perceive that we needed another appendage to instantaneously link us to the rest of the world. Lets hope that the habit of holding a telephone between one's head and shoulder doesn't cause the majority of people to go around with a permanent cocked head stance. Alas, when ar thritis sets in, neck mobility gets more limited. Advanced telephone technology is part of the progressive super-information network. Although I'm somewhat computer illiterate, those machines are increasing business capabilities and advancing education. It's too bad that there isn't a like way to erase useless information stored in our brains to make room for the important stuff that I tend to forget. Maybe that's part of the problem with this country's leaders, when it comes to making decisions that affect everyone and not just their own pocket books. Or perhaps their brains have become too jammed from the more vocal opinions of special interest groups. Congress is now debating an impending world trade agree ment known as GATT. Should GATT be approved, a World Trade Organization would be formed that would have more power than Congress. The United States, along with 172 other nations, however small, would all have the same voting power. Free enterprise, on which this nation was founded, could falter. Foreign countries often have a larger and cheaper labor force. In the name of doing more business overseas, many U.S. in.- dustries could opt to do more manufacturing in other nationsr, devastating this country's work force. The textile, electronics and food industries would be among those subjected to a complete ly new type of competition never before known. Since its inception, the very thing that makes people want to become Americans is freedom and that anyone can develop a business here. Hard work and risk taking are part of successful business ventures. But taxation, without representation, could mean that this nation is to-be run by the inner circle of an anar chy. America's middle class could succumb to a two-class socie ty in terms of the very wealthy and the very poor. To remain a powerful country it takes thousands of hard working middle class Americans with a strong work ethnic. If we fail to protect American industry through tariffs or quotas, the economy here could be subjected to a new type of competi tion that has never been known to exist. Competing on a world basis against products made with cheap labor and lower overhead costs could mean that our standard of living will go down, there , will be fewer jobs and more people will be on welfare. In opposition to the GATT formation, I agree with the follow ing quote from Pat Goggins, editor of the Western Livestock Reporter, who said, "I, for one, am not at all interested in see ing the economic and moral strength of America go down the tube''. It's time that turkey-stuffed voters like myself let our con gressional representatives know that we still carry some weight against self-serving big business tycoons. However I don't need a cellular phone while galavanting around outside. In fact, there are times when not having a telephone might be a plus; especially when sales people, poll takers and farm census recorders persist in monopolizing the wires. And although our phone no longer hangs on the wall it is still anchored by a cord, thus making it easier to find than the cordless phones that seem to play hide and seek with the televi sion remote controls.. In the late 1800s an English man, George Frederic Still, ob served 22 children in which he identified a condition he referred to as “chronic joint disease in chil dren.” Today we call it Stills dis ease or juvenile rheumatoid arthri tis. The diagnostic guidelines for this condition include active ar thritis (joint inflammation) for 6 weeks or longer in a child that is 16 years old or younger. In order for the joint inflammation to be con sidered active, at least two o f the following must be present: pain, swelling, or limited motion. ,*.Sc ?> J Wilson.

P O Box 367 Treatment of rheumatoid arthri tis in children is similar to that for adults. Aspirin (buffered and en teric coated forms) is used by many physicians despite the potential of Reye’s syndrome. Other physicians use the nonsteroidal antiinflam matory drugs such as naproxen and lolmetin. Therapy may be contin ued for several months to years after symptoms have disappeared. Steroids (by mouth or injected into the joints) may be given when nor mal motion is restricted. Severe pain may be controlled with a c etam inophen or codein e.
