WOOD CONVENIENT TERMS! m ME K, vMBH fa! ff&n?JB B BB ? HW^a ??OEHnBBaBHKaKCZaBBBtEOHaHI^HBn Autumn Equinox WASHINGTON ? Awe-struck Indians who watched nature's greenery burst Into flaming reds and rusts and yellows called the season "fire In the trees." Few parts of die world can boast such brilliant leaf colors as those In the woods and on the sloping hills of the eastern United States, which at 7:17 p.m. EST on September 22 marked the time of the autum equinox. At that brief moment each year, according to astrono mers, the earth readies the paint In Its spinning orbit where Its axis leans neither to ward nor away from the sun. In both hemispheres, day and night have the same length. The term "equinox" comes from the Latin words for "equal night." The earth moves onward In its orbit, and its northern half tilts Increasingly away from the sun. Nights become longer and colder. As temperatures drop, leaves that have huqg In modest green array all summer burst Into brilliant color. Some hardwood species wear such a characteristic fall dress that foresters can estimate the timber content of an area by merely examining aerial color photographs. Despite scientific study, no one fully understands die secret alchemy that transmutes green leaves into hues ranging from gold to purple. According to early American Indians, fall's foliage was the work of a tribal god who turned die treetops to flames as a fearsome reminder of Ids om nipotence. Botamists explain, however, that In early September a layer of small cells forms at the base of each tree leaf. These cells block off the flow of water and nutriments to the leaf. The green pigment, chlorophyll, bleaches away, exposing die other pigments. Trees turn scarlet when ex cessive sugar Is trapped In the leaves, causing production of the red anthocyanln pigments. The brilltnce of the swamp maple is a fine example of this process. Combinations of pigments make the infinite variation of color In autumn'leaves. Autumn is a time of activity as well as color. In the country, farmers are busy with their fall harvest. Some work even at night under the glare of flood lights. Squash and pumpkins, apples and cider are heaped on a multitude of roadside stands. Animals also prepare for die rigors of winter. Groundhogs and bears combine prescience with pleasure as they devour stomach-stretching meals to tide diem through die long win ter sleep. In the far south, autumn is not such a matter of serious con sequence to animals. There is usually enough food for all. Including the migrant birds that come south to winter. Bird watcher "down South" rival each other to see the first robin of the season. i ne neiro pouian uper. noose opened in New York City, October 22, 18S3.

Health and Safety Tips | From The American Medical Association Something can be done ab out that acne. The pimples, blemishes, bl ackheads and boils that make life miserable for 30 ma:.y teen-agers often can be elim inated or considerable reduced by careful attention. Waiting to "outgrow" your acne can be a serious mis take, says a pamphlet of the American Medical Association. Acne Isn't a serious disease. In that it's no: a threat to life and limb, but It can be seriously disfiguring at the time of life when young people are most sensitive about their apperance. Severe acne can lead to per manent scarring. Acne is caused by poor ad jus:menr of the skin to the sec retions of maitifingglands. The imbalance is hormone secret Ions will correct itself in :ime, usually around the age of IS or There are two things to rem ember in dealing with acne; There Is no one -shot cure, no magic pill. Control is a continuing process of simp.e skin care wnich you must fol low faithfully to have a good complexion. Second, acne Is nor a disease of dirt , even though you are told to was.i thoroughly and fre quently. The washing is to re move oils and to clear the plug ged oil glands, keeping black heads at a minimum The blackness of the blackhead is not dirt, but is due to a che mical change In the secretions from the ou glands. Wash the face two or more timer; daily with soap and hoc water. Wash thoroughly, but gently enough to avoid ltt luting tne skin. Frequent shampoo ing of the hair aiso Is In order. Acne is not primarily a diet ary disease. Following the st rictest diet will not, by itself, ' clear you-skin. However,some individuals seem to be made worse by very small amounts of certain foods, particularly s chocolate, and these persons obviously should avoid such of fending foods entirely. Medical care for acne is best sought early be/ore permanent damage is done. Each phys ican will have his own part icular rules, methods and mod- ; Icatlons, and thetrcaimentpre- 1 scribed will vary from patient to patient. Do not assume that ' the medicine:; and methods pre scribed for a friend will be the best, or even proper, treatmen j for you. Your doctor probably will j warn against picking, scratch- | ing, popping and squeezing of j pimples, since this may res- i ult in scars. Ask him whe ther you should open pustul- j es or extract blackheads your- j self. If he recommends this, \ he will show you how to do it without damage. In some patients other treat men s, such as antobistlcs or other drugs, ultraviolet light or x-ray therapy, ma/ be sel ected by your physician. Your physlcian will determine your specific needs. - 1 Veterans Admr. stratlon clerks displaced by compirers in automatic data processing systems are being retrained for better positions as typists or punch card operators whenever : possible.
