We are inclined to believe that feature article writing to bemoan the ‘‘terrible crime record” of young people is a current fad with one writer getting his idea from an other and using statistics that can always be twisted to prove a point. Nvssa’s juvenile ‘‘crime record” is so small that it might be called negligible. Any pranks that border on law-breaking are settled without fanfare and there is an excellent record of individual cases being settled once and for all. This community can be proud of its young people as much for their mature activities as for their observance of governing laws and the rules of society. Unfortunately, Nyssa is not large enough to maintain elaborate recreational programs deemed necessary for children and youths in metropolitan areas. This commun ity is made up of rural-minded people, there are progres sive churches of a choice of denominations and there is a far better-than-average school system, which all con tribute to the type of young people we can be proud of. If you don’t believe it, look at the number of boys and girls who are gainfully employed during their spare time, listen to and recognize their manner of salesmanship and courtesy when they are soliciting for school affairs, or visit the Journal office on alternate Saturdays and ob serve the business-like manner in which the Bulldog staff handles their school paper. America will be in good hands in the future if all com munities have Nyssa’s type of teen-agers who help make up its population. QUESTION: Who can give blood?

CHURCH NOTES r j They i° >v 5 Ye*, a pencil and pood BUSINESS FORMS mean RELIABLE RECORDS IP I- The completeness of our line assures y o u -a business form for evory form of business. u4 /W cty. . , For Complote Information GOOD R E C O R D S m e*« G O O D y DUSINESS PLACE YOUR ORDER TODAY FROM Mmm* Gate City Journal N\ OB Dial 2233 % This includes more people than some think—a healthy percentage of everybody, in fact, the man with loads of money, the man with none; the homemaker, the career girl, steamshovel operator and executive; outdoor people, indoor people; city slickers, country boys—whose blood he gets doesn’t make much difference to the ill or injured person who needs it to live. QUESTION: How much blood is in the body? ANSWER: In the average, healthy adult—12 to 13 pints. A healthy person’s blood is constantly being replenished in the body, hence, the removal of a pint calls for no special effort on the body’s part. The liquid part of the blood is replaced almost immediately, the cells and minerals after a few days. QUESTION: Does a donor experience any noticeable effect from giving blood? ANSWER: A healthy person should feel none whatever. Every precaution is taken to assure that the donor be scarcely aware of giving his blood. A mild skin anesthetic insures that he doesn’t feel the needle. Blood is withdrawn at a steady, uniform rate com patible with the normal rate of flow in the veins. The donor rests both before and after donation. QUESTION: Does giving blood lower resistance to illness? ANSWER: NO. * Donating a pint of blood is comparable to an afternoon’s exercise. A person in good health can do either safely. “ Resistance” to illness— doctors use the term because it has wide popular acceptance—is rela tive. We say a person has “ resistance” when the hundreds of inter related blood functions are doing their job well; if one function falls out of step, “ resistance” is lowered because a week place has develop ed. This has no relation to giving blood—a temporary absence of one pint of blood in the bloodstream makes no difference in the function ing of the healthy body. QUESTION: What recognition does the donor receive? ANSWER: He is entitled to wear a pin designed to flatter any lapel or blouse. A few days after his donation, a donor card is mailed to him. The card serves a triple purpose; to thank him for his donation, show the dates of his donations, and record his blood group and Rh factor (determined in the center laboratory following donation). QUESTION: Does the Red Cross charge for blood collected through its centers? ANSWER: Never: Blood collected through the Red Cross is provided as a public ser vice; under no circumstances does the Red Cross ask for or receive payment for blood or the cost of collecting, storing and distributing it. QUESTION: Then why are some people charged following a transfusion? ANSWER: Blood collected by the Red Cross is provided to physicians and hospitals for care of their patients. Before blood can be administered to a patient, it must be carefully tested and mixed with a sample of the recipient’s blood (crossmatched) to be sure it will not cause a reaction. The cost of this laboratory work and the cost of the set through which the blood is given are usually borne by the patient. QUESTION: Does the Red Cross Blood Program require replacement of blood? More than 2a percent of the population of any community in the United States could qualify in all respects as blood donors yet one pint of blood each year from only 5 percent of the population would supply all present community and defense requirements of the nation. Only a few Htvstvwtkms ef Use many nppli cat!ms of these versatile lad* of Modem % ANSWER: Any person 21 through 59, in good health and weighing 110 lbs. or more. Those 13 through 20 years of age may give blood, with par ental consent. Persons 18 through 20 in the armed forces or married do not need parental consent. ANSWER: No. Blood is supplied on the basis of medical need. It is recognized, how ever, that there is no magic source of blood. It comes only from the veins of individuals interested in supporting a blood program. Na turally, the people who should be most interested in the success of such a program are those who have just experienced its benefit. The family of a patient who has received blood should be given n oppor tunity and encouraged to replenish the supply of blood, in a volun tary program, however, prior placement or replenishment are not mandatory requirements.
