Such "black

BLACK AND
One article you printed long
ago is missing from my scrap
book and I have been hoping you
might ten
more of the
subject some
time. It is
about the ap
nea r a nee of
black and blue
marks on the
Or BradT marks appear
without evident cause or follow
ing trifling Injury when the In
riivlrlual has scurvy. Manifest
scurvy (scorbutus, as doctors call
in Is a nutritional deficiency
HI.PHK8 occurring most frequent
lv In this country, in Infants
who are fed too exclusively with
canned or sterilized or pasteur
trpri milk and not supplied with
a daily ration of tomato Juice
(fresh or commercial canned),
orange Juice or other fresh fruit
Juice.
Then a less manifest survy not
rarely develops in a person,
youn or old. whose diet is too
rigidly restricted for weeks or
months, either from lack of pro
per food or from ill-advised ef
fort to reduce or to avoid foods
the uninformed deems "undl
gcstible." "mucus - forming,"
"acid" or "too coarse."
This latter mild scurvy may go
unrecognized. It accounts for
false suspicions or open charges
of abuse or brutality in institu
tions where inmates or patients
are fed too exclusively with "gro
ceries." sterilized or cooked or
pasteurized or canned food, and
too little fresh fruit, fresh greens
or vegetables are supplied to pre
vent scurvy.
Scurvy, due to Insufficient In
take of vitamin C (chemically
known as ascorbic acid), is not
tha only explanation for the, ten
dency to get such 'black and
blue" mnrks from trifling injury.
Another nutritional deficiency
BLUE MARKS
among all classes of people In
the United States and Canada
may contribute to the same ten
dency to bleed under the skin
(for it Is bleeding from minute
vessels under the skin that pro
duces the discoloration, just as
in "black eye"). This is calcium
deficiency. The refined diet of
most Nnrth Americans Is more
likely to be deficient in calcium
than In any other essential ele
ment. One characteristic effect
of calcium deficiency Is pro
longed clotting time tendency
to bleed too easily.
So the appearance of black
and blue marks or spots, or min
ute extravasations of blood un
der the skin or perhaps under
the covering of eyeball or under
mucous mpmbrane, without ap
parent Injury, indicates (as doc
tors say) Immediate large in
crease in intake of vitamin C,
calcium and of course vitamin D
to Insure assimilation of the cal
cium.

United Press War Correspondent
Llvergnana, Italy, Oct. 17
(U.R) A merlcan infantry and
armor rolled Into Livergnano to
day a village of caves and
corpses, a town without a single
house Intact.
The white gravel of the main
road was stained brown by blood
from German and American
dead. In one tiny room on the
outskirts of town were 16 Ameri
can bodies, while German dead
were strewn through the caves
and tumbled down houses.
This barrier, blocking the
highway to Bologna, was known
to the Germans as the Casesar
line and the doughboys who took
it said it was tougher than their
section of the Gothic line.
At the bases of cliffs, rising 50
to 100 -feet on each side of the
town, were a chain of caves,
now blackened and bloodied by
five days of American artillery
fire. They were natural positions
and the Germans used them
craftily.
Women Will Decide
Presidential Race
Avers Clare Luce
On Thursday, the Germans
permitted two companies of
Yanks to creep into town and
up the long ramp of the 'cliff.
Then they opened with machine
guns from both ends of the ramp.
Some of the trapped doughboys
leaped over the 50-foot embank
ment and lay crumpled at the
bottom with broken legs and
ankles.
Second Lt. Alton Gloor, Gon
zales, Tex., headed one column
up the ramp. He charged to-J
wards a German machine gun, i
firing his rifle from the hip. !
Tracers from the German ma
chine gun lit up Gloor like a ball
of fire and put eight holes
through his field Jacket, but he
kept on going and wasn't
scratched," a wounded soldier
reported later.
Gloor killed all three German
machine gunners. Then with
some of his company, he over
came four more automatic weap
ons before bursting to the top of
the cliff and Into a church where
two Germans were captured.
Pittsburgh, Oct. 17 (U.R) Rep.
Clare Boothe Luce, of Connecti
cut, asserted today that the wom
en of America will decide the
presidential election and that
they will vote for Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey, the Republican candi
date. "Women," Mrs. Luce told a
press conference, "will vote from
here ou. for an efficient admin
istration which will bring their
boys home and put them back
into employment."
Mrs. Luce, here to address a
Republican rally at Syria Mosque
tonight, expressed the opinion
that women are "better voters"
than men because they have the
ability to go to the heart of an
issue, while the men clutter their
thinking with extraneous mat
ters not important to the ques
tion at hand.

Fivo years passed since we married

1 (Mrs. H. L.)
Answer From 35 to 40 a woman
should be In her prime. The nottun
that the first childbirth Is likely to
be an ordeal if the woman is over
35 is not based on fact. The subject
is discussed In booklet "Preparing for
