Women^s Health
The importance of prenatal
care was highlighted in a recent
study hy Pennsylvania phy.sician
Dr. Elsie R. Carrington. She
pointed out tliat aimotig women
wlio develop diabetes in the
course of pregnancy, and who
arc nut treated for the condition,
the stillbirth and neonatal (dur-
l-ng the first month of lifet mor
tality rate is a shocking 30 per
cent.
This rate, the doctor says,
“might be sliarply reduced if
every woman were screened rou
tinely for dlalxttcs in the course
of pregnancy.” (Note: Medical
studies liavc shown that diabetic
women treated for their condi
tion and receiving continuous
and frequent prenatal care can
have normal pi-ognancies and de
liver healthy babies.)
Dr. Carrington is re.search pro
fessor of obstetrics and gyne
cology at the Woman’s Medical
College in Pennsylvania.

A large-scale study of 11,711
women who have taken the oral
contraceptive pill for periods
ranging from two years to three
and a half years indicate that
“the pill” has several major ad
vantages apart from its virtual
ly perfect record as a contracep
tive.
For instance, depression, a
complaint often associated with
menstruation, seems to be allevi
ated by “the pill.” More than
1J230 women who participated in
the study sponsored by Planned
Parenthood reported that they
usually suffer^ from depression
during their menstrual cycle. A-
bout half of them said that this
symptom disappeared after they
began taking “the pill.”

'With Spring breaking out all
over, families may start going
away for wcekeiids on or Sun
day picnics. A bit of before hand
inventorying will make such
outings safe as well as pleasant:
• First Aid Kit: Stow one in
the car trunk. If it’s last year’s
kit, imake sure everything in it
is clean, useable and up-to-date.
It you’re assembling a first-aid
kit for the first time, check your
Ipc^ {ted Cvo^ for suggestions
on what to put in it.
• Sewing Box: A small sewing
box tucked into the glove com
partment will be handy when
junior pops the only button hold
ing up his trunks, or when sis
ter’s party elastic snaps.
• Fim and Games: To cut
down squabbling in the back
.s<‘at, squirrel away a few light,
small toys and games. Five aiid
dime stores are a treasure chest
lor such things as miniature
chess and che<-ker sets; playing
cards; puz/Jos; clay; cTayons.
Caution: F'or Young children,
soft toys are preferable to hai-U
or breakable oik's.
• Sustenance: Small stomachs
work in mysterious ways on
trips. A supply of non-stlcky
foods — cookies, crackers, apples
—can work w’ondors. -A pile of
napkins in the glove compart
ment is a must.
* Queasy 'Pravelcrs: Nearly
every family has one. For the
carsick member, a Dramamlno
tablet (which cuts down on mo
tion sickness), taken a half-hour
before embarking will virtually
guaremtoe a pleasant journey
tor one and all.

A pet may literally be man’s
best fi’lend, especially if the lat
ter is suffering from mental ill
ness. This is the view of Dr. Mur-
cel Heiman, attending psychia
trist at New York’s Mt. Sinai
Hospital.
t)r. Heiman reports that a pet other instance a cat, by nature Bq serving as a substitute for his grasp on reality, according to
