Wharton W instead and Buck Barnette docked in New York City Wednesday at noon from the S. S. Lafayette after spending six weeks in touring the Continent. Mr. Winstead, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Winstead of this city, and Mr. Barnette, son of Mr. Zeb Barnette of the county, but who now makes his home in Raleigh, embarked for Europe as passengers on a freighter some weeks ago. On the passage over the captain taught them such seafaring knowledge as how to pilot the boat, "shoot the sun" to find their position, measure the depth of the ocean, etc. Wharton stated that he didn't get soared at anytime going oyer, but that he was startled one day to measure the depth of the ocean to find it was seven and one-half miles deep. On the other side they went to Lon don where they saw King George and Queen Mary of Great Britain, toured France, enjoying the joys of Paris en route, went through Holland and Bel gium and into Germany. Asked if he saw Hitler, Wharton replied that the Dictator was nowhere to be seen, but that they did see plenty of good looking girls while away, none to match the American Beauties, however. The dykes of Holland are used as highways with the towns below them, and the country is littered with can als. The legendary character who thrust his arm through a hole in the dyke to save his country was not in evidence on the boy's itenerary. , o Rotary Club Holds Regular Meeting The Roxboro Rotary Club held its regular meeting Thursday night at the Community House.

A remedy for sudden heart deaths, like angina pec toris and coronary thrombosis, discov ered in a daring new method of tem porarily stopping human hearts, was described to the Summer meeting of the Leaders of American Science, be ginning a week's meeting here today. The heart-stopping experiments also brought out new facts about treating heart block, which causes unconscious ness, and which in extreme form causcs death from asphyxiation and electric shock. On Exhibition The human gueina pig work wai shown at the exhibition of the Ameri can Association for the Advancement of Science and of the Minnesota State Medical Association by M. H. Nathan son, M. D., assistant professor of medi cine, University of Minnesota. Professor Nathanson stops hearts in two ways: One by a sort of Jiu Jitsu pressure of the fingers near the caro tid artery, which virtually stills the heart the same as death, but onl? tem porarily. The other is partial stoppage by in jecting adrenalin, the energy-produc ing drug. The Injection sets up the same kind of confusion in heart mus cles. as causes death in coronary throm bosis, the "industrial captain's dis ease," and angina pectoris. In most of the types of sudden death from heart troubles, Professor Nath anson explains, the heart itself is still good, sometimes structurally so strong that it appears good for several or many more years of life. He has stopped or slowed hearts of fairly healthy human beings and sought drugs which will prevent either ; the stopping or slowing. The theory is that the drugs which prevent the artificial stoppage will be useful medi cally. The heart confusion causing death from coronary thrombosis and angina pectoris is called ventricular fibrilla tion. Professor Nathanson finds that quinidine is a protection against this trouble artificially produced. ( Quinidine is a relative of quinine but eight times more active in its effect on the heart. Quinidine has been used much for troubles in the auricle of the heart. It's preventive powers against the fatal ventricular heart troubles are new. Professor Nathanson's exhibit advis i cd that quinidine be used for two weeks after an attack of coronary thrombosis, and also be used in an gina pectoris. According to his charts, the time and duration of treat ment is something for the medical pro fession to work out by experience. His patients given artificial heart block by finger pressure became tem porarily unconscious. This uncon sciousness is not prevented by most of the heart drugs sometimes recommend ed, including digitalis, comaine, thyroid extract and caffein. But adrenalin prevents it, and any of the drugs derived from adrenalin Referendum Ballots Beginning To Come Into Agent's Office Every Farmer And Tenant Is Requested To Vote On This Measure During the latter part of the week ballots were mailed to every contract signer In the county in order that he might express his wishes in the con tinuance of contracts for tobacco be yond the current season.

C., Sunday after noon. Mr. McLean died as the result of a blood clot in the left lung Friday morning at Emergency Hospital in Washington, D. C., at 11:10 o'clock. He was 65 years old. Following services in Washington Saturday at Central Presbyterian Church his body was brought to his former home in Lumberton for the final services Sunday. Ex-Governor McLean had for many years been prominently identified with the life of the state and nation. Dur ing the Wilson administration he serv ed as Assistant Secretary ? of the Treasury and a member of the War Finance Corporation. Before that time he had been a leading member of the Robeson County Bar Association where he lived and practiced law. En tering the race for Governor in 1924 he wa^ elected and served from 1925 until 1?29? when he retired. For the past several years he had been prac ticing law in Washington.

He was suffering from both heart and kidney diseases. When death came Mrs. McLean was reading to him on the porch of the hospital. Two of his three children had been with him only a few minutes before, and he had sent his eldest son, Angus W. McLean, Jr., to Lumberton the day before. o Isolation of Children In Person Co. Urged Dear Editor: . As a precaution against the possible spread of Infantile Paralysis let me talk to the children through your paper. As I lie here on my bed I am think ing of the children and what we might do to avoid the spread of this dread ful disease. There will be plenty of time for the children to go places and see things when this most dreadful di sease of childhood has gone. Stay in your own yard and if company comes to play with you your mother will ex plain to them how you ate trying to co-operate with your State Board of Health to keep children well. Now, should you feel like its pretty hard to stay home remember its mighty nice to be well and play at home as compared with having Infantile Para lysis. If you get sick and have fevir and nausea, go to bed and call your good friend, the family doctor. Mrs. Ruth M. O'Briant. * There are 5 cases of Infantile Para lysis in Person County. Camp Cherokee Will Not Open This Season This News Was Released To Troop Leaders In Special Bulletin Camp Cherokee will not open this season. Scout officials have made a thorough study of the present epidemic of Infantile Paralysis with the State Board of Health, Medical Authorities and Scouters in the majority of the centers of the Cherokee Council. This investigation brought about the de cision not to conduct the summer camp ing program. This news was released to the Troop Leaders of Cherokee Council in a special bulletin Friday. Scout Executive Gorman stated that he has secured for the Council officials the advice of the State Board of Health, has conferred with medical men in Burlington, Roxboro, Reidsville, Graham, Leaksville and Caswell Co. In each instance the advice has been that as a precautionary measure they would advise that the camp not open for this season. This information was made available to Executive officers in each District of the Council and the decision not to open was reached Fri day morning. The letter mailed to the Troop of ficers is as follows; June 21, 1935 Dear Scout Leader: After a very thorough check with the State Health Authorities, County Health Boards, Medical Authorities and Scout Officials in the majority of the centers of this council, it has been deemed our patriotic duty as Scouts and Scouters to do everything possible to aid in preventing the spread of In fantile Paralysis. Our organization is built upon the basis of develop ing boys physically as well as mentally and morally. With the former before us, we cannot afford to do anything that might, in the future, jeopardize the health of any one of our member, therefore, it has been deemed wise and expedient that the Council's summer encampment plans be discontinued and this encampment not be held. It is the purpose of our Council to launch, at a very early date, a program of training our Scout leaders to aid them in overcoming the great loss that we will witness in not having our sum mer encampment. This will, very like ly, be a program that will involve the training of our leaders in program and Troop efficiency. It is the suggestion of this office that all Scout Leaders keep in close con tact with the medical authorities and be governed by their advice as to Troop meetings. Troop hikes, and other Scouting events. Although we realize lhat many of our Scouts will witness great disap pointment because of not having a camp this summer, we believe that we will save the parents of our Scouts much anxiety that they would have should we go forward with our Camp program.
