W ATKINS Keaitier and Tribune Syndicate, .63) Worm Should Hire Known Life Cycle Always Constant The moon in the soft, sum mer sky was full - so bright it cast a faint, yellowish glow on the naked body of the the cutworm as it pushed it blunt nooc against the mellow garden soil. Its sensitive nose brought appetizing odors of growing plants, each filled with de licious Juice. Through the inch of earth above htm, re mained the leftover warmth of the day. If the worm had had the ability to reason things, he would have appreciated the position and convenience of the orderly rows the gardener used when he set out the plants. For the hungry, active cutworm, it was but a few easy inches of crawling from one tenaer plant to tne nexi Mat Other Worm Occasionally he met an other worm. Sometimes they crawled side by side, but soon each branched off to go his separate way, both still following the well ordered rows. All night the cutworm chewed and moved on. By the time the morning sun cast its warming glow on the earth, the cutworm turrned down ward, reaching the depth his worm knowledge told him was the Ideal position.

In some cases, such dividends are currently 70 tax free or more. ' We have prepared a report listing22selectcduti! ity companies likely to continue' paying such par tially tax free dividends for some time to come. Besides the tax advantage, these utility stocks were selected because we believe their growth and income potential to be quite favorable. The report also discusses 14 of these companies in detail on their 1962 performance, with tenta tive estimates of their 196? earnings, and their prospects for future expansion. .

The process of digestion continued, turning the chew ed plant tissue he had eaten into nourishing Juice. By the time evening came again he would be ravenously hungry. Afternoon Rain It rained during the after noon. The water seeped down into the ground and awaken ed he uncoiled slowly. As usual, he was hungry. He be gan pushing his way up through the damp earth. The faint glow that had alerted him to descend into the earth a little way was absent now. The world above was cloudy and darkness would be early. Suddenly his head came in to contact with a hard, un yielding obstruction. The gar dener had left the blade of a shovel imbedded in the soil, and the cutworm had run into it. For the worm it was the moment of decision. He in stinctively knew that he should crawl upward or to the right or left. Many times before he had encountered stones and other hard objects. He lay motionless for several minutes. The empty feeling in his stomach pushed him to a decision. He began to crawl toward the surface. Instinct, balancing delicate ly against hunger, prompted him to proceed cautiously. Dangers of many kinds exist ed above. He always tried to keep at least a half inch of earth above himself, but now there was an overpowering urge to find a tender, green plant stem. No Warning Even his old friend, instinct. had no way of warning him that an early bird, or perhaps one that hadn't gone to bed yet, was perched on the limb of a tree within a few feet of the shovel handle. The bird waited, eyes alert and focused on the ' ground where the shovel blade enter ed the earth. The smooth, gray body of the cutworm broke through the surface. There was a faint rustle of wings ... the sharp beak of the bird grabbed the soft, warm body. The worm twist ed, but the bill held. Then the worm saw the wide open, red-lined mouth of baby birds. He was forced down a dark and warm throat. Unknowingly, he was com pleting the cycle. The plants which nourished the' worm created the tissue which now was feeding the baby bird. The wheel of life had made another full turn. TheyH Do It Every Tuner j.k. By Jimmy Hatlo Shed A tear FOP.

AJvare Endometriosis Because women keep writ ing to ask about endometrio sis, I should explain that endo means in, the root metr re f e r s to the womb, and so e idometriosis is a condition in which cells, coming away from the in side of the womb and getting out through the fallopian tubes, have started growing as little blobs of tissue on the inner lining of the abdominal cav ity. The symptoms produced depend largely on where the blobs are, and how big they are. Often, the symptoms are so vague that it is impossible for the physician to make a defi nite diagnosis. For instance, Dr. John Fallon once reported 200 cases of endometriosis, in which the correct diagnosis was made before operation in only six cases, but was sus pected in 66. Recently an able surgeon, Dr. Joseph H. Pratt of the Mayo Clinic, wrote that endo metriosis frequently causes abdominal discomfort or pain which is usually in the lower abdomen, or just above the groins. It is widespread, and is often described more as a a sense of pressure than as pain. This distress gets worse just before the period, and in the early course of the dis ease, it tends to clear away after the period. Pain May Remain Later, if the disease be comes severe, the pain may remain throughout the month, but still it can continue to get worse with the period. Often the woman complains that she has not been able to get preg nant; and she may complain that sex is painful and causes her to ache for a while after ward. If the woman feels she must have help, a surgeon can oper ate and remove the largest of the blobs of uterine cells, which are often called Choco late systs. In the old days, the surgeon was inclined to remove the ovaries and per haps the uterus, but today, and especially when the wom an is young and is desirous of having children, he will re move only the little masses of cells. 1 In the cases of women past 40, the surgeon may remove the ovaries, and this can stop the progress of the disease. In many cases today, the phy sician will give a drug to stop ovulation, and this may re lieve the pain well enough to work a "cure." Jobs Will Be Hard To Find by Youth Portland - Secretary of La bor W. Willard Wirtr sounded a warning to the nation's youth last week that Jobs are going to be harder than ever to get, especially for the S'i million new young workers who will not be going on to college between now and 1965. Secretary Wirtz made pub lic his agency's newest man power report on 'Young Work ers: Their Special Training Needs" in calling for immed iate action programs to fore stall the corrosive and frus trating effects of chronic un employment on our hon college-bound youth In the three years just ahead. Wirtz was testifying before the Senate Subcommittee on Education in support of the National Education Improve ment Act as one means of combatting unemplo y m e n t among the unskilled and the imminent shortage of person nel in many skilled occupa tions. In Labor Force The report showed Oregon with 60,700 14-to-19-year-olds in its labor force in 1960 75.000 oredicted for 196S, and 80,400 for 1970. Wirtz noted that the in .M,ca( wpro ftsnpriativ larce in the three years ahead in calling for immediate action programs to remedy the situa tion. ' - trend, he added, was the growing pro portion of teenagers who re main in school, even thougn they are working at full or part time Jobs outside. In Ore gon 66 per cent (sixth highest in nation) shared their time between education and em ployment in 1960. Out-of-school youth account for a high proportion of the total labor force in several slates, among them Oregon and Montana in the West (12 per cent or more).
