Two pediatri cians who have spent 15 years studying 2,600 children Friday told parents to stop worrying about thumb-sucking. Drs. Al fred and Howard Traisman, a father-son team, said at the Am erican Academy of Pediatrics meeting that "parents have been unduly alarmed . . . and should be reassured about the harmless ness of the habit." About 75 per cent of all babies suck their thumbs simply because they get pleasure out of it, the doctors said. It does not. cause "overbite" or other dental disorders, they said. A normal human body requires about 3,000 calories of food values each day. A cleaner-burning gasoline any other premium in the West! A Is That So? By establishing a fairly regu lar eating and sleeping sched ule, about six people out of ten can rouse themselves from sleep at any desired hour of the night. Expectation or anxiety quick ens one's ability to wake quick ly or at a specified moment. A mother will waken at the first whimper of an infant. A sol dier will waken at the stealthy approach of an enemy. A fire man will leap from bed at the first tinkle of an alarm. A nurse can doze off and wake at regu lar intervals to administer medi cine. And a child will wake long before dawn on Christmas day. Father will have no diffi culty awakening on the day he goes fishing. In contrast, unpleasantness may have exactly the opposite effect. Just try to wake up with ou'. an alarm clock for an early dental appointment. In fact, psychiatrists state that people who tend to oversleep consist ently may be unhappy in some major part of their lives. A change of jobs, they add, may make an eager beaver out of a hibernating bear. Awakening, states Professor Albert E. Conway, of Lafayette college, always comes in a three-stop sequence regardless of its cause. There is the initial awakening when an internal or external alarm goes off; nest there is a relapse when either the mind or the body snatches at sleep again; and finally re awakening, the acceptance of the waking state. With some, these steps may be very close together with others decidedly prolonged. Strain on Heart However, leaping out of bed and hurrying to a cold shower, is not good unless the motto is: "A short life and a merry one!" Doctors state this places a tremendous strain on the heart. The approved method is to lie quietly for a few moments, yawn deeply, stretch the limbs, then roll to the side of the bed and sit up all in slow motion. Just as you would see a wild animal rouse itself naturally. Then the body is ready to start another 16-hour stretch. How best to induce mental Many modern gasolines are not clean burning. They leave deposits, cause fouled carburetors and spark plugs, sticky rings, burnt valves. Your engine loses its quick responsiveness too soon. New "Flying A" Ethyl burns clean, because it has been de-sulfurized by the new Avon Process. Because it burns cleaner, new "Flying A" Ethyl can be guaranteed to give your car more power for more thousands of miles than any other premium gasoline sold in the West. GUARANTEE: We have tested new "Flying A " Ethyl against all other leading premium gasolines sold in the West, under comparable conditions in actual late-model automobile engines, for a total running time equivalent to 295,959 miles of driving, and guarantee that new "Flying A" Ethyl has proved to be consistently the cleanest-burning brand, TIDEWATER OIL COMPANY By EU6EME BURNS Ranger-Naturalist wakefulness in the morning? For early birds, often the best thing to do is to leave the shades up all night so the sun may stream in and waken them in the morning. For others, it is best to flip up the shade the first thing the alarm goes off flooding the room with the sun's brightness. On dull, cloudy days an electric light tends to arouse mental awakening. As a last resort, cutting down on food the night before will help slug-abeds tear themselves away from the blankets hunger pains and the idea of breakfast can be powerful goads to lash one to life.
