(Intervationol) As We Live By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. Let Doctor Impress Girl With Importance of Health Young people frequently do not understand the importance of taking care of their health. A doctor can often make them see the light better than parents can. A woman writes: (Q) "I have one child, a daughter of 19. She is very beautiful and very popular. Since she graduated from high school she has had a job which pays her very well. I have never asked her to pay board, as my husband earns enough to support the family. So, my daughter spends all her money for clothes and good times. That is my problem. "She is out every night, oft en until midnight or later. She goes on dates with boys, and if she has no date she goes ' out with one of her girl friends. I maintain she doesn't get enough sleep, even though she says she 'catches up' on Saturday and Sunday ( morn ings by sleeping late. Then, she is so anxious to keep thin that she just nibbles. I tell her she isn't eating enough to keep a bird alive and she just calls me old-fashioned. How can I make her see that she will ruin her health if she goes on this way?" (A) The chances are that you will never be able to convince. her that she will ruin her health unless she gets adequate sleep and proper n o u rishment. Surely you have learned by now that most teenagers even those old enough to hold down jobs think they know, more w Dr. Hurlock than their parents do. However, she would doubtless take ad vice from your doctor, provided he is a young, up-to-date doctor. If your family doctor is your age or older, he wiH understand your problem and can recom mend a young doctor who can talk to her about her foolishness in overtaxing her strength and dissipating her reserve. If you insisted that your daugh ter assume some of the respon sibilities of the home, even if you do not ask her to contribute anything to its support, that would give her something to keep her at home. It would be good training and experience for her as well as being good for her health. (Copyright 1954, General Features Corp.) SMOTHEHLOVE York, England (U.R) Dr. Cedric C. Harvey reversed the trend toward plenty of mother love as advocated by many child experts by warning that too much of it is "smotherlove." Harvey, a pediatrician and fa ther of three boys and two girls, said such "guardian angel" mo thers produce ?'bored, frustrated, dependent, helpless children." Americans use their telephone an average of 188,000,000 times a day. Pope Appeals for Free World To Confront Enemies Vatican City ' (U.R) Pope Pius XII appealed today to "tired and .inactive" statesmen- of the free world -to confront their enemies with "firmness and per severance." The Pope made his appeal in a 2000 word speech in the Basil ica of St. Peters where he placed two jewel studded cowns of gold upon a time stained por trait of the Madonna and Child. Chimaxes Marian Year The ceremony, celebrating the queenship of Mary, was the cli mactic moment of the Roman Catholic Marian year. It came on All faints' Day and the dogma that Mary was assumed bodily into heaven when she died. Thirty Cardinals, 300 arch bishops and 50,000 persons gath ered in the Basilica where the lights of 4000 candles created a magnificent setting of red and gold. Signs of Weariness At one minute before noon the Pope affixed a golden crown studded with sapphires and dia monds to the portrait of Mary and a smaller crown to the Christ child beside her. The 78-year-old Pope showed signs of weariness and age as he performed the 70 minute cere mony, but his voice became stronger near the end. "Christians In the present hour in which the unity and the peace of the world, and the very sources of life are endangered, can only lift their eyes toward the Virgin, who now appears garbed in powerful regality," the Pope said.

Comment On This and That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Feature Writer 1 1 A ' r Washington (U.R) Perhaps the greatest collector of useless information in the U. S. Army is a private- first class, that is. And if you are smart you'll be watching for him to show up in television a few years hence. His name is Rob- Harman Nichols ert M. Mc- Clure, who works in the signal office at headquarters detach ment, Fort Lee, Petersburg, Va. Bob," a wit in his own right, uses the name "Harrison J. Mc Clure" when he entertains at parties on his base. .The "J", he says, to give you an idea, is "as in Dillard." Anyhow, here are some of the things that has his buddies roll ing in the aisle. Kind of silly, but funny. A Big Canoe For instance, after consider able research, he has discovered that 300 Ubangis can chop a canoe the size of the Queen Mary from a balsa log in 10 years, with stone axes. "Of course," he said, "we never have found a log that big, but when we do it will be in teresting." This gets zanier as we move along. "After careful study," Mc Clure says, "I learned that it takes 10,346 dead flies to fill an empty 12-ounce beer bottle. And if you think that's an easy es signment you are out of your head." . All of a sudden, while talking to the lad, you get the idea that something must be off-center. Robert-and-or Harrison claims before he latched onto the Army he was chief entomologist at the Bagley Institute for Aged Babies in Easr, Overshoe, Del.

Let's be fair. Give Ike the men he needs to carry on his progressive program. Ike got us out of war. He is bringing our boys home. He has in creased social security benefits. He has re duced taxes plans further reductions through increased government efficiency. More jobs are being provided through peacetime pros perity not the Mood money of a war boom. All in less th?j two years' time. IKE mtk YOU to RE-EUCT SENATOR GUY CORDOM Senator Cordon ia NOW at the peak of his usefulness to Oregon. In the Senate, and only in the Senate, does a small state like Oregon have equal voice with the more popu lous states. We cannot afford to lose Oregon's only effective voice in the U. S. Senate. As chairman of the Interior Committee Senator Cordon has a key role in considera tion of western power, irrigation and flood -control projects. He is a high ranking mem ber of the appropriations committee, chair man of subcommittee on interior appropria tions, member of the subcommittee on rivers and harbors and member of the joint commit tee on atomic -energy. Since 1946 Senator Cordon baa increased the funds for federal power projects in this area from 4.7 to 27.5. Nearly one dollar out of every three now comes to the Pacific Northwest due to Cordon's efforts. A VOn FOR SENATOR CORDON b veto far EISENHOWER'S PARTNERSHIP KAN creating payrolls and prosperity NOW by encourag ing the development of hydro-electric power through EVERY source Federal. Private and Public. MORE dams for MORE power for MORE jobs. We need them all! SENATOR CORDON u liard-working, effective, respected and admired by both Democrats and Republicans. That is why he is able to do so much for Oregon. To con have CONFI DENCE in Cerdeal Vote far fn nl ins rijuinnrnt tlm ninlifrtmis kiunial wt, has shown by every action, by every writ ing, by every speech that be would knife the Eisenhower program at each opportunity. He is for greater government Expenditures which means higher taxes. He is for greater centralization of government which mesne less individual liberty. Cordon's opponent would have no stand ing, no seniority; just another useless vote. He has shown by his absences from vital roll call votes in the State Senate more than 300 absences in three years that he does not have a deep concern for representing tbe people. One of the three worst senators ra attendance at the 1953 session, Senator Cor don's opponent has demonstrated that be is , lone wcif, not interested in team play. This Portland writer is for federal-power-er-rtothing. This philosophy would leave at just that nothing. Senator Cordon's opponent admitted m letter to the Oregonion April, 1951. that "Pol itics with me is strictly a sideline.'' He said be was "primarily interested in writing and journalism. And he has admitted that be wants to go to the United States Senate to get material for a book. Of what value is . this to Oregon? BEFORE yon believe campaign charges by CORDON'S opponent a telf-confeed po litical prevaricator read what he wrote about himtelf in political campaign in 1947: "As long as the business of rounding up votes dominated my thoughts . . .
