AMERICAN OFFICERS JOIN BRITISH ‘BATTLE SCHOOL’ NORTHERN IRELAND.—Officers of the American contingent here, along with British officers, are undergoing intensive training in modern methods of attack at a British “Battle School.” Advancing through mur and water over all types of country, cliff climbing and river crossings—always under fire—give these men full knowledge of today’s warfare. After a thorou gh course at the school, they return to their units as tough and fully qualified instructors. Above, American anil British officers charge across a wide stream while exploding mines around them create all the din and confusion of battle. Sunday School Lesson Text: Proverbs 21:17; 23:32; Isaiah 5:20-23; Hosea 4:11; Joel 3-2, 3; Ephesians 5:18 By WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of Advance It is obvious that alcohol is the occasion of an immense amount of propagandism. For many years those who favor total abstinence and who have been opposed to the liquor traffic have carred on ex tensive and highly organized prop agandism, while of late years propagandism in defense of the traffic or in advocacy of moder ate drinking has also been exten sive, if not on an , equal scale. Propagandism in itself is neither good nor bad. Education, the preaching of the gospel, move ments for better social conditions, advertising, and publicity are all forms of propagandism. The dif ference between true and false propagandism is that the one is concerned about establishng the truth and the facts while the oth er is intended to mislead, and the one legitimate question to be asked in relation to all propagandism is, what are the facts? Effort to distort or to overstate the facts either against, or in fa vor of, the drinking of alcoholic beverages will in the long run de feat the purpose of the propagand ist. The speedy enactment of pro hibition with its speedy repeal ought to remind us, whatever our viewpoint, how great and quick re action can take place where peo ple are influenced by high pres sure proagandism without being fundamentally convinced. It is obvious that there is today considerable confusion as well as much honest difference of opinion concerning the facts.

MacMILLAN BUICK CO. 108 North Second Street Dial 9574 * total abstainer. He has ^seen no reason to abandon that practice. From his viewpoint total abstin ence never yet harmed anybody. Yet it would be Pharisaic folly for him to assume any moral super iority over plenty of men and women who drink in moderation. The question which is the bet ter practice must be settled on wider grounds than individual hab it or experience. The Bible as a whole undoubtedly commends to tal abstinence, though some pass ages are and have been of dis puted bearing. History confirms what the Bible has to -say about the effect of strong drink and its association with other evils. No amount of argument has ever been able to set aside the Biblical denunciations and warnings upon which the “temperance lessons” are based, but the fact that even among church people drink ng so much more common than it was a few years ago makes it difficult to write about such lessons, with realism, "and to teach them with out recognizing changed condi tions. What should we do? Face the facts. Encourage frank and open discussion. Avoid censorous judg ments, but do not compromise the truth. No habits that are sound, and no cause that is right, has anything to fear from the fullest investigation, inquiry and discus sion. 2 BLUE STAMFLIST IS ENLARGED HERE Three Fresh Fruits And Irish Potatoes Will Be Avail able During July Three fresh fruits and Irish po tatoes have been added to the list of Blue stamp foods available dur ing July under the Food Stamp program in New Hanover county, Lawrence T. Scott, acting area supervisor of Agricultural Maiket ing Administration, said Saturday. Fresh peaches,' fresh plums, and fresh apples are the fruits added. These, together with oranges, all fresh vegetables, including Irish and sweet potatoes, and the staple foods continued on the list, will give participants a wide variety from which to select the foods they require. Dried prunes and fresh grape fruit are the only two commodi ties removed" from the July list. Dried prunes are being acquired for use largely by our armed forces and the season of heavy marketing of grapefruit is drawing to a close. With these changes, the com plete list of Blue stamp foods is sued by the Agricultural Market ing Administration for July 1 through July 31 in all stamp nro gram areas is as follows: fesh peaches, plums, apples, an or anges, a fresh vegetabes incu ing Irish an sweet potatoes, she eggs, butter, corn meal, hominy (corn) grits, dry edible beans, wheat flour, enriched wheat flour, self rising flour, enriched' self ris ing flour, and whole wheat (Gra ham) flour. Farmers, Mr. Scott sail, are working to produce abundant quantities of all the food needed by the United Nations. The Food Stamp Program helps to assure them, particularly in seasons of heavy marketings, of a fair return for the efforts they are making. At the same time the program adds many nutritious foods to the diets of families in need.” 2 -V Army To Usp Wooden Beds To Save Steel WASHINGTON. June 27.— W To save steel, the Army has de cided to use wooden beds instead of folding steel cots for soldiers. The War Department said to lay the beds may be fitted together and formed into double deckers. The first purchase by the Quar termaster Corps, it was estimated, will permit diversion to other war needs of some 31.500 tons of steel. NEW GAS RATION TERMED ‘TOUGH’ Eastern Motorists Cautioned To Prepare For Plenty Of Walking WASHINGTON, June 27 — UP) — The office of Price Administration cautioned Eastern motorists today to prepare for plenty of extra walk ing under the new coupon gasoline rationing program taking effect June 22. Asserting that the new plan “is going to be tougher than the aver age car user appears to realize.” Price Administrator Leon Hende son asserted that thousands of mo torists who now have “B” or “X” ration cards “are going to get along on a basis "A” coupon book of less than four gallons per week. “They are going to want to ar range to share rides in order to make the ration go as far as pos sible,” he added. OPA said its warning was issued because of the apparent impression gained by many motorists that there had been a liberalization in the amount of gasoline to be ra tioned under the new plan. “The exact opposite is true,” Henderson declared. “While the minimum coupon book will grant a fraction of a gallon more per week than the “A” card grants un der the temporary rationing, the conditions that must be met to obtain supplemental rations under the new plan are so strict that most owners will have to get along on the minimum.” He said that two-thirds of the eastern motorists now had some form of extra ration above the minimum. OPA officials estimated that the tailoring” of the ”B” coupon books under the new plan—by pre scribing expiration dates—would reduce the driving of about 25 per cent of the drivers in the ”B” class. In addition, car owners are required to form car-sharing clubs to carry four or more persons to work as a qualification for supple mentary allowances. flashesaqfTife (By the Associated Press) SILVER LINING PHILADELPHIA — Somewhere ir.

CHANGE IN MARKER STANDARD SOUGHT / Chamber Asks Highway Com mission To Raise Standard Of Wilson Plaque The Greater Wilmington Cham ber of Commerce yesterday asked the State Highway and Public Works Commission to "aise the standard holding the Woodrow Wil son marker, on Third street about 20 inches to increase its visibility. The marker commemorating the memory of the war president’s res idence in Wilmington was recenily placed on Third street, just north of the First Presbyterian church. The chamber of commerce ex plained that throughout, the day automobiles are parked along the curbing, hiding the markei, the ' standard of which stands onlv 47 inches from the ground. This lack of height militates against visitors and tourists seeing the sign when cars are parked parellel with it. The president’s marker yvas compared with that of the Whistler one which stands a few yalds away and has a distance between the bottom of the sign and ground of approximately 67 inches Elevation of the markei may require the slight trimming of sev eral branches of trees, said the chamber, but p"omised the coop eration of city authorities in this respect. i! -v Medical Care By LOGAN CLENDEN1NG, M. D. One of the fascinating things about modern medical research is that something may be discovered, which looks like a very rare and unusual condition and after inves tigation it turns out that it throws a great deal of light on some old and common conditio.]. Sciatica, or neuralgia of the sei ati-3 nerve, is certainly one of the oldest of human complaints. The medical profession had about giv en up expecting to find anything new about it and. lo and behold, recently a condition was discov ered whch probably explains 73 per cent of all cases of sciatica. The sciatic nerve is given of! from the lower part of the spina] cord, emerges from the openings between the lower vertebrae, goes down over the sacro-iliac joint, and comes out into the leg about near the bone that you sit on and is distributed to the back part of the leg and calf. When it begins to ache—the condition which we call sciatica—it causes about as excru ciating discomfort as anything' that can happen. Medical men have ascribed the cause of sciat'ca ,o inflammation or injury of the nerve everywhere along its course from sacro-iliac strain to impinge ment on the nerve in the sitting posture, to local infection, and so Iorth and so on. Not long ago, in fact as short a time ago as 1934, some surgeons found that slight injuries would cause a peculiar condition in the vertebral column. The bodies of the vertebrae are separated by a cartilaginous cushion in the mid dle of which is a soft globule of tissue called the nucleus pulposus. This nucleus pulposus gets pushed around with considerable ease and can be herniated on between the vertebrae, causing pressure on the spinal nerve roots. At first this was considered to be quite rare but in the time that has intervened it is found more and more often as diagnostic thought has become more alert; doctors have been taught to look for it. Furthermore, a great many cases of low back pain and sciati ca have been found to be due to this cause. When seen at opera tion, the nucleus pulposus is stick ing out between the vertebrae and stretching the roots of the sciatic nerve so that it is evident to any observer that it is causing severe pain. As I said above, some neuro surgeons believe that this causes sciatica in as much as 7o to 30 per cent of all cases. The condit'on can b® relieved by very simple surgi cal procedures whcih remove the protruding muscleus pulposus and take the strain off the roots of the sciatic nerve. Of course, it is advisable to try every form of conservative treat ment first, such as resting the na tient in a plaster cast, manipula tion, injection of the nerve and taking plenty of time before try ng surgery. In order to prove def initely whether sciatica is due 1o herniated nucleus pulposus it is . possible to visual'ze it wth prop erly planned x-ray studies. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS H. A.:— What is meant by the loss of a reflex and what bad symtoms or pains does it cause? Answer: A reflex is a subcon scious impulse that goes through the nervous system, starting as a sensory impulse and coming out a a motor impulse. For instance, you touch something red hot without warnng, you pull vour hand away; that is a reflex. The sensation of heat and burning makes the muscles move. A re flex is lost whenever the nervous arc is interrupted. This may be due to neuritis either in the "sen sory or motor nerves or a destruc tion of some part of the spinal cord. Loss of a reflex is not in it self associated with pain although some of the diseases in which re flexes are lost have pains as part of their symptomatology.
