Center in New Hyde Park, N.

schools because they present a
behavior problem. The other
20 per cent are referred by
private physicians, the

agencies. Pew come through
their parents' initiative.

says Judith Roheim, MD,
director. Department of Child
Psychiatry, at the center's
Hillside Division. "In many
cases, emotional disorders are
hard for a person to recognize.
Therefore, the family questions
whether psychiatric care is
necessary. Many people
mistakenly feel such help is
justified only in extreme
situations."

ADVERSE EFFECTS OF
SMOKING IN PREGNANCY
Beyond any reasonable
doubt, smoking in pregnancy
has adverse effects on the
developing fetus, the "British
Medical Journal" said recently.
These effects range from
inhibition of fetal growth and
prematurity to an increased
risk of perinatal death from all
causes, a survey of the
scientific literature revealed.
BATHE LESS IN WINTER
Can a person be too clean?
According to dermatologists,
some people bathe too often,
especially in the winter time.
In the cold weather we perspire
less, spend less time out of
doors and more time in steam
heated rooms. The skin's own
supply of natural oil decreases.
Too-frequent bathing can make
skin, and especially dry skin
and older skin, drier, flaky, and
itchy.
During the cold weather
months, a quick shower or
sponge bath can be substituted,
and tub baths reduced to two
or three a week.
A good bath oil can be
added to the bath water. A
cleansing agent that doesn't
dry out the skin can be
substituted for ordinary soap.
The makers of pHisoDerm
report that their creamy white
liquid skin cleanser helps to
soften the skin and replaces
oils usually lost in washing,
without leaving skin greasy.
Hie Ghetto in Paintings Nov. 1
The paintings of Emie
Barnes will be shown at North
Carolina Central University's
Art Museum for two weeks
beginning November 1.
Barnes, born; reared, and
educated in Durham's black
.immunity, is a former pro
football star whose paintings
hang in the homes of some of
America's best-known figures.
Works by Barnes are owned
by Harry Belafonte, Flip
Wilson, Berry Gordy Jr., Los
Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley,
Dean Martin, Dinah Shore,
Ethel Kennedy, Steve
Lawrence, Diana Ross, John
Conyers, Sheldon Leonard,
Sidney Poitier, Roman Gabriel
and Bill Cosby, among others.
A portofolio of Barnes'
paintings, in reproduction,
costs $55. The paintings
themselves have been valued at
$1,500 and up.
Works by Barnes have not
been shown in public in
Durham since he participated
in a student exhibition at
North Carolina Central
University in 1960. (Several
Durhsiif citizens have his
painting! in their private
collection.) .
The exhibit, will open with a
reception at 7 p.m., Thursday,
NoveMbft 1, hosted by North
Caroltifi-lCentral University and
the rfsjjgi Carolina Mutual life
Imurano Company at the
NCCTjtji Museum
BarnM will speak at North
CaroBna Central's Founders
Day program at 10 a.m,
Friday, November 2, and the
exhibit will open to the public
at 1 p.m. that afternoon.
During the two-week show,
museum hours will be 1 p.m.
to 4 pm, Monday through
Friday, nd 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
..i Sunday.
Although the first paintings
by Barnes to achieve public
attention were his masterful
sketches of sports events, the
paintings in this exhibit are
perhaps more meaningful to
the artist than those.
"The Beauty of the Ghetto"
shows the life of black people,
men, women, and children, 'in
their own community.
The ghetto, Barnes says, "is
treated as if its people are a
species of dangerous animal
who waits to prey upon the
civilized. How in heaven's
name can a child growing up
there learn to feel proud of his
cultural roots and heritage?
How difficult we make It for
him to feel that the
contributions he might make
to the cultural and commercial
life of the country is needed
instead of tolerated.
"As an artist, gifted with a
certain access to the common
unconsciousness, I am
providing a p'ictorial
background for an
understanding into the
aesthetics of black America. It
is not a plea for people to
continue to live there but for
those who feel trapped, it is as

Well But Food
Lacks Benefits
GREENSBORO, N.C.
Americana are generally
considered the best fed nation
in the world, but their choices
of foods are often limited in
health benefits, the president
of the Nutrition Foundation
Inc. said here last Monday.
"The public has been
subjected to palpably
exaggerated claims of health
benefits, to promotion through
all communication media of
overt misue of foods and
beverages," said Dr. William J.
Darby.
Darby was the opening
speaker at a national nutrition
conference at A&T State
University.
He blamed faulty nutrition
education in the nation's
schools as part of the problem.
"Conventional presentations
of nutrition education fail to
interest students in grade
schools and the majority of
high school students regard
nutrition as a subject to be
equally less interesting, " said
Darby, also a member of the
American Academy of Science.
He also cited a need for
modernizing the nutrition
educational content of
medical, dental and other
health related professional
schools and in various graduate
sciences.
"The nutritionally illiterate
scientist orprofessionalleader,"
added Darby, "can and often
does have a most damaging
influence on consumer
behavior."
More than 250 nutritionists,
researcher, physicians and
educators and attending

Darby told the group
the responsibility

the education of the youth, the
adolescent, the man and the
aged."
' The respective
responsiblities of the family,
the individual, the parent, the
teacher, the community
agency, the schools and the
churches, and of government
towards achieving the
beneficial nutritional attitudes
essent ial to desired quality of

The ancestor of the goldfish is the dull-colored carp.
Miss Madie was
sure hei facial expression registered
pandimonium because the boys suddenly scampered from the
room, leaving behind them a quavering chorus of "we'll dig you
later, Miss Madie."
The lethargic arm, raised to wave goodby to the boys, dropped
to her side in a flutter; A nauseous hotness swept her from the
scalp of her head to the soles of her feet; then, her head became
swoomy and her knees started knocking. Nothing had ever
unstrung her so completely; indubitably, she has known fear, but
this thing which gripped her whole being at the moment was new
The fear that she had set herself up for a laughing-stock terrified
her more than did the fear of losing her chance to marry. Why she
was so sure that something awful had happened to Jeff Boy kins
was based on womanly intuition She tried to convince herself that
she had known all along that he was as phony as a $3 bill; but her
heart kept going out to him. If Bella McDougal had given Jeffs ego
a kersmack on the bottom, she deserved a medal-not a kick in the
face. All the while Miss Madie gave the kitchen the finishing
touches the boys had left for her, her throbbing brain was busy
devising a plan wherebw she might find out what had happened to
Jeff Boykins. Coating the facts from children concerning the affairs
of grown-up, was decidely not her cup of coffee, but she wished
her scruple had allowed her to pry more; dig-ah-little deeper into
the incident of the "crying man."
Shelia, her boot-leg hair-dresser, lived in Apartment 25, two
doors from Bella McDougal. Every two weeks is how often Shelia
washed 'n pressed, if she visited Shelia three days after the last
appointment, "ah fool would know she was poking around for
gossip." Shelia wouldn't give a cuss about propriety measures;
accepted standards of behavior were the least of Shelia's worries. A
nugget of gossip was intended to be carefully nurtured, inflated,
distorted and whispered dramatically into the ears of her
customers.
Miss Madie was about to call in one of Faithy Hart's girls, the
elderest of the litter; the one whose head always looked like a
haw-haw nest; when the sound of "Mister BenV' rasping voice
stopped her intention "dead in its tracks."
"Coming! Mister Ben," she shouted.
Ben Pratt was sitting up in bed when she dashed into his room;
"ain'tcha th' cat's paw? Send-ah-body packing for-ah-Honeydew
mellon 'n when your precious mellon arrives, who is knocked out
wjff sleep?" She teased.
Mister Ben" was looking about him as though he was seeing
the room for the first time. "This is ah right smart pretty room,"
he said.
It's ah-room, when you've seen one room in ah housing
project you've seen 'em all." Miss Madie's spurious jocundity was
short-lived. She didn't like the way his eyes searched every nook
and splinter of the room -besides, he picked his flesh as though he
was searching for something or discovering a new sensation in the
touch.
"How come you picking yourself that-ah-way, Mister Ben?"
"Fetch my mellon, girl I am starving." Ben Pratt chuckled
softly.
Miss Madie quickly left the room; her eyes had quickened to
tears and she had no wish for her patient and friend to see tears of
doubt in her eyes. However, she sensed, poignantly, that the
handwriting was on the wan for her cut-buddy. She removed one
slice from the mellon and chopped it into shreds, sprinkled the
yellow meat of the mellon with a dash of salt; then, she hurried out
of kitchen to escape the gathering clouds of compunction. He
might live to place pennies upon her eye-lids to close them in
eternal sleep. ';',iuBbV. ' " ,t.
Ben Pratt thoroughly enjoyed the bowl of shredded ho
mellon; and, When Miss Madie, bent over to retrieve t
his palsied fingers, he kissed, her on the cheek; a cold, mushy,
smack. Her eyes quickened to tears, but she held them in abeyance
until she had closed the bathroom door, then, she let the tears flow
in a torrent; hot briny tears streaming down her cheeks, meeting
under her chin then forming single drops which spattered on her
folded arms. When her tear-ducts were completely empty, she
washed her face in cold water, dried it carefully then bathed it
gently with a fragrant lotion. Satisfied that no tell-tale marks of her
crying were visible, she tidied up "Mister Ben? room
"Cat got your tongue?" She teased.
"Nome, I'm just laying here thinking about us. Why didn't we
get married, Miss Madie?"
Ask-ah-fool question n you eet-ah-fool answer. We never
married because you never kept your tail still long enough.
"My tail?" f , '
"You can take that to mean-ah-lot of things, but you get th'
message. . ' ,,,;.,
Ben Pratt chuckled, "you're a mess, Miss Madie. I admit I didn't
allow no grass to grow under my foots in them days-I feel th'
world don't owe me-ah-thing."
"Don't talk out of school, buddy-boy. You might have to eat
some of your smart talk.
"Go way from here, Madie Perkins; you is as full of stuff as-ah
Christmas turkey." -
"When I come back, I'm going to stuff you like a partridge."
"Where you goin?"
"I've got to see-ah-man-about-ah dog."
"Be yourself, Madie."
"Stop picking your face 'n don't have Cora calling on you while
Fm away."
"Cora?"i
"Th' sea-hag in 'partment 2-B."
"Cora ain't no trubble." He answered sheepishly.
Miss Madie laughed; "I trust, Cora, it's you, I don't trust."
Sheila was frying fish when Miss Madie arrived, however, she
lowered the flame under the fry pan; poured Miss Madie a cold
glass of lemonade. "Honey, I have been expecting you all day. I
would have gone to your place, but I had to wash 'n straighten 5
heads of wool."
"I heard about Miss Bella from Jetty 'n some of his pals."
"Oh! no, I wanted to tell you about your friend, myself. Miss
Madie, he was pitiful. It was good enough for him but he was really
pitiful when old lady Bella took a butcher knife 'n ripped open the
seats of his pretty red car. And, as if that wasn't enough, she
gashed the tires and, to top it all, she smeared black paint all over
the red paint job."
"Whatcha mean my friend?" Miss Madie's atempt to screen her
face with utter dismay ended in a comic rendention.
Shelia was dumbfounded for a moment; evidently, Miss Madie
bad forgotten how she had told her all about how much she cared
for Jeff Boykins. The fish was ready to tum and Shelia shuffled
across the kitchen to the stove and while she was turning the fish,
her powers of speech returned; "Miss Madie, you don't have to feel
bad about what happened to Jeff. He spends more than Miss Bella's
welfare check. I didn't tell you because you were all tore up about
him 'n I didn't want to kill your joy."
Miss Madie sat crestfallen. -Continued.

I By (JBORGE B..RUSS.
Form
James M. Ludlow, D. D.,
Litt. D., author of "Deborah,
The Captain of the Janizaries";
made this observation in one of
his discourses on "Incenitlves
for Life: Personal and Public":
A life purpose in order to be
really noble, satisfactory to
one's self, or of force to
accomplish greatly, must take
in the whole of life, all our
interests as our days pass, and
all our years until the end. The
current of concescrated energy
must fill the channel, and they
must aim toward the sea. There
are many businesses in life, but
only one business of life.
Livelihood is not life; a truism
that many in our bustling age
do not seem to discover to be
true." History records many,
many examples of men and
women who discovered their
businesses of life; and, the
discovery opened for them the
gateway to a richer, fuller,
nobler, more rewarding way of
life. In this discourse, we will
turn our thoughts to one of
our contemporary neighbors:
Mrs. E. S. Norris. The life of
Mrs, Norris can be summed up
in the words of the sainted
Harriet Newell, the story of
whose heroic purpose in
missionary work has stimulated
hundreds to similar
consecration: "I have no regret
that I left my native land for
Christ. It was in my heart to do
a good work for God, and my
desire is accepted by the
Lord."
Mrs. Norris was born in
Durham County, however, she
spent many happy years in
Orange County. She is the
daughter of Rev. W. H.
Stanfield and Mrs. Emma Dave
Stanfield. This happy union
was blessed with 11 children; 8
girls and 3 boys. Therefore the
art of getting along with people
comes natural to the lady who
is loved and admired by
persons of all ages. Being the
daughter of a minister and
living with the positive
vibrations of a Christian home,
in all probability, channeled
her life along the pathway of
kingdom building soul saving,
therefore she was converted at
an early age; at the age of 9 she
was baptized by the Rev. L. H.
Hackey. The weeks and
months that followed her
baptism were blighted by an
insidious uncertainity-Am I a
christian? Perhaps, her feeling
was brought on by the negative
intonlngs of the times; the
broodings of parents whose
sons were at war; a sense of
insecurity caused by food
rationings and shortages in
other areas-World War I
howbeit, Erie was haunted by
doubts concerning her religion.
Her elderest sister's ability to
pray more convincingly than
she, gave rise to mental
anguish. So, Erie beseeched
God. through daily prayers, to
give her a sign revealing to her
the status of her evolution as a
Christian. She prayed earnestly
and waited Impatiently for a
manifestation to appear. After
a time, tnrougn a vision,
discovered that the cause for
mv lack of faith in my religion
stemmed from something I was
do ins my self -you see, I
enjoyed discussing the Sunday
School lesson and this privilege
was extended to me if I were
on time. But often times the
two horse buckboard we rode
in was late and I would become
furiously angry. This was the
bone of contention in my
Christian growth. After this
revelation, I was able to go
about the Master's work with a
great deal more ease and
understanding. My great joy of
being set free from this awful
dilemma stimulated a burning
desire to bring others to Christ.
My messages of hope for the
unsaved were read during
sessions on the local Sunday
School Conventions. My
limitation to do more in the
area of soul saving was
sometimes widened when I was
elected as delegate to the State
Convention."
Mrs. Norris smiled into the
cup of her hand; "I would like
to see more boys and girls
interested in attending church
worship services; also, more
Baptist seriously interested in
our Woman's State and Foreign
Missionary, Lott Carey and
General Baptist Conventions
and, attend our Leadership
Training Conferences."
To accelerate the nostalgia
of my gracious hostess, I
asked: "what do you do for
recreation, Mrs. Norris?"
She smiled under-
standingly- sympathetically.
She had,
her heart,
en c o u n t ered other
dumb dumbs like me. "My
recreat ion comes through
serving God- the joy of saving
souk. I have found that serving
God has helped me in so many
ways' that I am happy
recreated in being able to
contact the unsaved and weak
Christians- enlightening them
with the powers found in the
Holy Scriptures, My own
strength, faith and courage is
fortified through the Holy
MRS. NORRIS
Word. Romans 1 : 16--Therefore
I am not ashamed of
the Gospel of Christ; for it is
the power of God unto
salvation to everyone that
believeth. Brother Russ, 'can
do all things through Christ
which strengthenth me.'
Philippians 4:13." At this
point, she pursed her lips,
flared her brown eyes wide
open; "I have found that
serving God has helped me in
my martial life. I have been
married to James Norris for 51
years." She sighed softly, there
were problems I could not
solve through applications of
my intelligent reasoning; but, I
found the answers through my
prayers : o God. In 1971,
during the celebration of our
Golden Anniversary, I found
not only great joy; but, a
renewal of hope, faith and love
in the solemn ceremony at
which time we repeated our
marriage vows--including:
"obey."
After clearing her throat,
Mrs. Norris continued her life
story; "I have three wonderful
children. We owe this
wondrous blessing to God
because through His divine
guidance I was able to properly
rear my children; Mrs. Ruth
Norris Green, a teacher at
Faye t teville Street School:
James T. Norris, Jr., a
Mechanic and Security Guard
at A & T University; and Mrs.
Marjorie Norris Knight, a
teacher at Jefferson School,
Plainfield, N. J." The great
pride that flushed her pudgy
cheeks receded and a note of
pathos came into her voice; "I
recall a mother who was having
trouble with her child, once I
asked her if she prayed for the
child," Mrs. Morris shook; her
head sadly; "the, woman ,told
me she was too busy working,
earning a livelihood for them
to pray. Naturally, I pleaded
with her to pray while she
worked. The woman told me
later that she had followed my
advice- the girl was doing
better but, there was room for
improvement. I told her to
pray unceasingly. Today, tha
gjrl is a young woman an
doing splendidly well."

Thia column of questions and answers on federal
tax matters is provided by the local office of the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service and is published as a public
service to taxpayers. The column answers questions
most frequently asked by taxpayers.
Q. My garaice was damaged
during a windstorm. I spent
$20 taking photographs of the
damage in order to determine
the amount of my casualty
loss. Can I deduct the $20?
A. Yes. If you itemize de
ductions the cost of photo
graphs, including the pur
chase of film and developing
charges, for the purpose of es
tablishing or computing, your
casualty loss deduction are
deductible as a miscellaneous
deduction. Do not include the
$20 as part of your casualty
loss.
Q. I was just promoted and,
as a result, I'm getting a sub
stantial pay increase. I want
to make estimated tax pay
ments to avoid one big tax
bill next year, but I've already
missed the April and June
deadlines for paying the first
two installments of 1973 es
timated income tax. What can
I do?
A. You can still rile a decla
ration of estimated income tax
Form 1040-ES , but you
must do so by September 17,
1973. Your estimated tax
should be paid in equal in
stallments on September 17,
1973, and January 15, 1974.
If you file, your return and
pay the balance due by Janu
ary 31, 1974, you need not
make your final estimated tax
payment. The same rules ap
ply to filing amended declara
tions of estimated tax.
Forms 1040-ES and in
structions are available at
any IRS office.
Q. Who can represent a tax
payer at an IRS audit?
A. Generally, attorneys, cer
tified public accountants, and
individuals enrolled to prac
tice before the Internal Reve
nue Service may represent a
taxpayer at any stage of
the IRS examination-appeals
process. These three stages
are the audit examination,
district conference and appel
late hearing. The person who
prepared your return (and
signed it as the preparer),
if he is not otherwise eligible
to practice before the IRS,
may represent you only at the
audit examination level. In
addition, this representation
may encompass only matters
concerning the tax liability
for the year covered by the
return he prepared.
Q. Is it true that a student
can be exempt from income
tax withholding?
A. Yes. Students and other
individuals are exempt from
withholding if they did not
owe tax last year, expect to
owe none in 1973 and have
filed a Withholding Exemp
tion Certificate (Form W-4E)
with their employers.
However, if tax has already
been withheld this year, the
taxpayer must file a return
next year to have it refunded.
Warn Parents of Need
To Immunize Youngsters
Diphtheria kills and maims.
So does tetanus. And measles.
And polio.
And so do other infectious
diseases including mumps,
whooping cough and rubella,
says the Health Insurance Insti
tute. ... ..,,.,
But proper immunization'

medical men, is that too many
today either do not know this
or are too lazy to pursue it.
The result is that the use of
life-saving vaccines is down. The
bad news is that unless some
thing is done, infectious diseases
throughout the nation will al
most certainly rise sharply.
So certain are doctors in this
country of the value of immuni
zations that a plan is now under
way to vaccinate at least 9 out
of every 10 pre-school children
by October 1976.
The plan begins this month
(October) with a communica
tions program designed to force
fully jostle the nation's compla
cency toward its unimmunized
pre-school children.
To start, October has been
named Immunization Action
Month a time to remind par
ents and physicians of the im
portance of these inoculations
through all available communi
cations media.
The U.S. Public Health Ser
vice's Center for Disease Con
trol (CDC), which is running
the campaign, says the nation's
relaxed attitude toward immu
nizations may be disastrous.
The CDC says too many par
ents, relying on the fact that
immunizations are required in
school, wait until their child
reaches school age for his vac
cination. But by then it may be
too late.
Another contributing factor
to complacency is that the coun
try has been relatively free of
preventable infectious diseases
in the oast decade. ,
This false sense of security,.,

be a tragic mistake. That's one
of the main reasons this all-out
campaign was begun.
Backing it are some of the
nation's major health organiza
tions. They include the American
Medical Association, the Amer
ican Academy of Pediatrics, the
American Academy of Family
Physicians, the Association of
State and Territorial Epidemi
ologists, the American Osteo
pathic Assn., and the National
Medical Assn.
The campaign, according to
the Institute, also has the back
ing of the nation's health and
life insurance companies.
One major insurance com
pany, which has sponsored ad
vertisements on the value of
immunizations, is now offering
a 12-page free booklet on the
subject and making it available
nationally.
The booklet begins with this
advice:
"Every child and every family
should have the life-saving pro
tection of immunization. . . ."
But not enough families do.
The CDC reports that about 37
per cent of the nation's nearly
14 million pre-school children
are not immunized against polio,
measles, rubella, diphtheria and
whooping cough.

Our Health
By C. H. Tracy, M. D.
A friend of mine was given
a kitten and has contracted
ringworm from it. How conta
gious is this infection? Do all
Cats have it? Should my friend
disinfect her apartment?
It is unnecessary for your
friend to disinfect her apart
ment in order to get rid of the
ringworm, which is a fungus
infection having nothing to do
with worms at all. She should,
however, take the precaution
of using her Own towels, slip
pers, etc. so as not to infect
her roommate, if she has one.
The infection is common
enough in household pets but,
no, all cats do not have it. The
type of ringworm generally
contracted from household
pets yields readily to treat
ment. Ringworm can occur
anywhere on the body surface.
When ringworm involves the
feet it is known as athlete's
foot; on the body it is known
as tinea capitis, which is high
ly contagious although the dan
ger of infection exists with the
others as well until the condi
tion is cured. The kitten also
should be treated to get rid
of the disease. In humans,
griseofulvin and tolnaftate are
two very effective medications.
Thorough washing and drying
of the affected area is also
very.. important;, ( ul; lu ,

mm dandruff and itchy scalp.
Where does dandruff come
from, and what can I use to
control it?
Dandruff is a common prob
lem, and a stubborn one. Se
borrheic dermatitis, which you
probably have, is the kind of
dandruff associated with exces
sive oil production. Sometimes
the fat glands which nourish
the hair do not function prop
erly. Seborrheic dandruff pro
duces flakes which are rather
large and yellowish (from the
oil) and difficult to remove.
Try using Sebulex Shampoo
(a lotion) or Sebulex Cream.
MothersUnderstand
The next timo a disaster
strikes. . .anywhere in the
world, and mothers stand in
a relief line hoping desperate
ly to get some food before
the supply runs out, many
of the women who bring home
food for the children will
have mothers like you to
thank.
According to Reformed
Church World Service, which
in the spirit of Christian char
ity helps disaster victims re
gardless of their religion or
race, contributions from Amer
ican mothers are an increas
ingly important source of the
aid given to mothers and their
hungry families in time of
emergency.
If you care enough to share,
even a dollar or two will
feed many people. Contribu
tions which are tax deduct
ible may be sent to Reformed
Church VYorld Service, Room
1806, 475 Riverside Drive,
New York, N.Y. 10027.
