Flowers for Hospital Patients
Also Cheer .Nurses I )()(-tors^
Get-well greetings are cheerfully stated in the language of flowers.
This arrangement of pompons and roses designed by Florists' Trans
world Delivery experts ran be sent anywhere in the country to bring
good wishes to convalescents.
Planning to send some flowers to a relative or friend who is in the
hospital?
There's a right way and a wrong way of doing it, and if you do it
right you'll cheer the hospital staff as well as the patient.
Hospital administrators interviewed in a recent survey by Florists'
Transworld Delivery agreed that flowers have a definite therapeutic
value, especially for the patient who may not often have visitors.
However, because of the critical help situation in hospitals na
tionally, a prime concern among the administrators was how to
facilitate handling of flowers in their institutions.
To this end, they came up with some general suggestions for floral
gifts to hospital patients:
Long-lasting flower varieties should be selected, Which
are not heavily scented.
The patient's name should be supplied to the florist so it agrees
with the hospital registry (Mrs. Mary Smith,not Mrs. John Smith)
and the room number should always be provided.
The size of the floral arrangement is significant. Hospital rooms
are not large enough, or adequately furnished to contain large arrays
of flowers. Hospital administrators advise that the outside measure
ments should be approximately 21 inches wide by 2-1 inches high.
The FTD researchers said a floral gift, although kept small, can
still be given an expensive look by a petite but clever design. They
suggested asking the florist to create a design using accessories which
pertain to the patient's interest or hobbies. Another way is to order
an arrangement of less common blossoms.

Presbyterians
Urge Blacks to
Caucus as Body
NEW YORK - Stron ">l>-
port for the development of
caucuses of black churchmen
has been expressed by the
United Preabyterlan Council on
Church and Race.
The formation of all-Mack
church groups is "One of the
moat hopeful rigna to emerge
in the mklat of the chaoe of
the present," the Council said
meeting here; "This - move
ment," it added, "holds gnat
promise for the development
of a genuine and creative black
theology."
The caucuses both in speci
fic metropolitan areas and at
the national level through the
National Committee of Negro
Churchmen-also are indicative
at work in the midst of the
ghettos of America," the Coun
cil said. "The Council on
Church and Race can only re
joice," it added, "at the creat
ivity and significance already
achieved in this development."
It called on the United Presby
terian church and other deno
minations to support the black
groups.
Organizations of black
churcl-.Tien have been formed
in a number of cities, largely
within the past year, to work
for solutions to race problems.
Some of the groups are within
denominations and others are
across denominational lines.
CRIME ON THE "HIGH SEAS"
'
The annals of crime contain
much that looks incredible at
first view. One such strange-but
true incident on the "high seas"
actually took place in a hot,
steaming jungle, the records of
the Atlantic Mutual Insurance
•Company note, while another
had white mice playing key
roles. Unbelievable, and yet...
In the 1850'r California's gold
sometimes reached New York
by sea after an overland jungle
trek through Panama. Word of
one such shipment got talked
about: ten masked men am
bushed a mule train carrying
$106,000 in gold, and promptly
vanished in the jungle.
The Panamanian army
chased the bandits and all were
captured, but $5,000 in gold was
missing.
The lost gold? For all that is
known, it is still in the jungle!
Early in April, 1870, the
steamer "George Washington"
put out of New York, bound for
New Orleans. The fourth day
of her southerly course brought
the cry dreaded by seamen the
world over: "Fire in the hold!"
According to the "Disaster
Books" in the Marine Library
of the Atlantic Mutual Insur
ance Company, prompt action
by the crew saved the ship.

Your professional beautician
knows the answer...
Can your hair be damaged
from brushing, alone?
All hair becomes damaged from exposure to sun and natural
elements. Certain greasy compounds and many chemicals, im
properly used, also take their t011...n0t to mention simple at
tempts at beautifying the hair with any brush not made of
natural bristles. The results are brittleness, breakage, dry and
dull looking hair.
Your professional beautician knows how artificial bristles
actually brush away a great deal of the "lubricants" of the hair
that give it body, lustre and protection. And trained beauticians
claim that nothing beats Clairol* condition* Beauty Pack Treat
ment for overcoming brittleness, dryness and breakage...
leaving hair lively and easy to manage, condition* is an easy-to
work-with creme which can even be applied during a chemical
straightening retouch to prevent drying of hair that has been
previously relaxed, condition* is the ultimate in repairing deep
down damage. And, when time is a factor for their customers,
hairdressers turn to new Clairol* Hair Dew*—the lotion condi
tioner that penetrates so fast many think of it as an instant
conditioner. When applied regularly by your beautician, Clairol
Hair Dew adds body, softens and gives a glowing new look to
your hair that many friends will notice and admire.
Damage can come from using brushes with artificial bristles.
But damage to every woman's hair comes from so many other
causes that all human hair (including wigs) needs to be re
vitalized periodically. Visit your professional beautician and ask
this expert to check the condition of your hair.
Only your professional beautician knows the answer for lure.

blackened hold for a key to the '
fire's origin, the ship's captain
came upon a four-foot-square
box. Marked "Handle with Care
—Keep Dry." it was still smol
dering.
The manifest stated only that
the box contained "valuable
machinery." Curious, the cap
tain ordered it opened.
Packed inside in straw and
sawdust was a soda-water bot
tle filled with gasoline, a can of
spirits of turpentine, an explo
sive mixture of potassium
chloride, and two cigar boxes
full of white mice!
The "valuable machinery"
was really a lethal incendiary
device. The hungry mice, nib
bling at their cigar box prison,
were intended to set off the ex
plosive. Then the ignited tur
pentine. gasoline, sawdust and
straw were to start a blaze that
would wipe out ship, crew and
heavily insured cargo—and de
stroy all evidence of arson.
The plot failed only because
the fire was speedily detected.
Atlantic Mutual's files give the
names of two men later charged
by a U.S. court with "shipping
explosive oil without labelling
the contents upon the case."
But the identity of "a third
party not in custody" —the
packer of the, deadly box is
lost to history.
training prof rams sponsored
jointly with 8,000 of the nation's
leading companies.
This month ICS enrolled ita
eight millionth student, Bar
nard L. Mahone 111 of Rich
mond. Virginia, who enrolled
in a Chemical Engineering
course. To commemorate this
event. "Mister 8" or Bernard
Mahone 111 will be flown to the
home offices of ICS in Seranton,
Pennsylvania for special cere
monies in his honor. He then
will be escorted to New York
City for an expense-paid vaca
tion and, in addition, will re
ceive a lifetime scholarship for
unlimited ICS study.
The majority of home stu
dents have their eye on material
as well as intellectual rewards.
With good reason. A recent poll
of nearly 2000 graduates reveals
that nine out of ten who have
had job-related training are re
ceiving annual raises three
times higher than the national
average.
Once considered the way to
switch from a blue to a white
collared job, the scope of the
correspondence school has wid
ened in recent years to a re
markable degree. Another sur
vey reveals that 7 per cent of
the top executives in America's
top 8,000 companies were en
rolled in ICS courses at some
time during their climb up the
ladder.
"The number of home study
scholars will increase at an even
greater rate in the next few
years," predicts Dr. John C.
Villaume, ICS President. "This
will come as a result of the
radical advances in technology
and management techniques
which now occur so frequently
that even college-trained people
must occasionally pause for re
fresher courses. And to the fact
that employers today are a lot
more impressed with what you
know than how you learned it".
