FOR CORNS
BLUE-JAY Plastic Corn Plasters
with wonder drug PHENYLIUM
Guaranteed to relieve pain
. . . and get rid of ordi
nary corns in three days
Medical science has found a
fast and effective way to re
lieve the pain of a corn, and
get rid of it at the same time.
This treatment works by
getting to the base of the
problem. It actually gets rid
of your corn by pushing it up
from underneath.
The secret is a wonder drug
from the Blue-Jay labora
tories which took nine years
to perfect. That wonder drug
is called Phenyl iumi (phenox
yethanoic acid).
Hew BLUE-JAY Corn PlatUrt
The Blue-Jay plaster consists
of a felt ring surrounding a
pad with Phenylium. The felt
relieves the pain of the corn
by removing the pressure and
friction which causes it.
Simultaneously, the Phen
ylium goes to work to remove
the source of the pain the
corn itself. It penetrates
through the tough, horny
skin of the corn to its base,
where it stimulates the growth
of new cell tiwuio.
In moHt corns, by the end
of the third day this new tis
sue has grown to the point
where it pushes the corn loose
so that it can be lifted out.

Lecently I had my first polio shot in the series of
three inoculations. It wasn't painful just a tiny tingle from
the needle and I'm feeling fine with no aftereffects. I went
to the clinic with a group of my neighbors: it's easier if you
make it a neighborhood project. And it doesn't take long.
Polio is no respecter of age, and I'm grateful that I and
everyone else can have the protection this vaccine offers.

RETARDED KIDS GET A CHANCE. Two years
ago a few parents in our city organized a school for mentally
retarded children who were too young for special classes in
public school, too bright to be institutionalized, or unable to
compete with normal children. They had nowhere to go.
The parents had no money, no building, no equipment.
But a contractor lent them a house rent-free and enough
money was raised through bake sales, fashion shows, and
theater benefits to operate the new school. Recently the
board of education made available a school building and a
workshop where the children can learn to become useful,
self-supporting adults.
Now the school has become a community project with
service clubs and church groups supporting it. Perhaps
other parents of retarded children can benefit from this
experience: Helen Crockett, Colorado Springs, Colo.
IEAUTY IN A JAR. Last Summer our son Mike
collected all the bugs and worms he could find jars and
jars full of them! One jar with four worms in it wound up
in the garage. Later I saw that there were cocoons in the
jar, and I really don't know how they survived with the
children examining them so often.
But one day three of the most beautiful butterflies I had
ever seen were inside the jar; they were Monarch butter
flies. Mike let them go because he didn't have the heart to
add them to his collection. Sometimes it takes a child to
show us nature's wonders. Mrs. Les Monori, La Salle, III.

. . . what do you say to a woman whose baby has been
condemned to living death?
Let's say you don't really know her except that she's
a young wife and a new mother with a plump and pretty
baby. Let's say you heard this morning that the child born
of love and happiness has been given a death sentence.
That the doctors say the baby will live for a time and, as
its mother watches, slowly die a little every day. And there
is nothing anyone in the world can do about it Not prayers,
not love, not tender care, not drugs or medicines.
Nothing.
I suppose you don't say anything at all. You don't send
a card or flowers. There is a terrible feeling of helplessness
in you, even not knowing her, never having seen her child.
It is a nightmare in which you cannot run nor cry out.
You must only stand and suffer silently.
I suffer for this woman. I, who have never known her agony
or seen her child smile. I suffer because there is no hope
for her anywhere, no happy ending. She must sit and hear
the clock tick away her baby's breath and the calendar
count his heartbeats.
Man has not the sublime objectivity to analyze his own
anguish. He is asked to take the harder part, the acceptance
without comprehension, and it is a bitter, bitter pill and he
must receive it.
I think the only possible thing to say to the young mother
and then only within my own heart is this:
I pray for you, unknown. I pray you may find the calm
after the storm, the peace which tempers sorrow, and that
the love you bear your child will make you strong and give
you happiness in its strength.
I pray that, when your child is taken from you, you will
keep always the radiance of him as he was and that one
day the blessing of remembrance will allow you tenderness.
I pray that you will know he neither lived nor died in
vain but that he was meant to become a part of you forever.
