THE CAUSE OF ACNE I write frequently about acne be- -' cause this skin blemish spoils the lives and often affects the minds of our teen age boys and girls, just when life is at its best for them. Thus whenever a new or different method of treatment of acne is reported from re-sponsible sources, I pass it along to my readers. For years it was believed that acne is caused by gland chanees. particular- - Dr. Barton ly in the sex glands, because the great majority of cases start at this time. That these glands have much to do with causing acne in a direct way or indirectly because of the way foods are handled in the body was proven recently. Physicians were able to cause acne by injecting gland extracts into young men and women whose skin had been per-fectly clear. By stopping the use of these extracts, the skin became free of acne again. What about the use of this gland treatment in cases where acne is present? Doctors Charles H. Law-rence and Nicholas T. Werthessen, Boston, in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology, present the result of estrogen or ovary extract treatment in 25 acne patients (14 females and 11 males). The average age of the females was about 26 years and of the males 20 years. The average length of time the acne had been present was about nine years. Twenty patients received disthys-tilbestr- .5 mg. daily until their ability to withstand this dose was determined. In 17 the dose was then increased to 1 mg. daily and in two mature males with severe chronic acne, the dose was increased to 1.5 to 2 mg. daily. Five pa-tients received ethinyl estradiol, .15 daily, increased to .3 mg. if response was not satisfactory. What were results obtained? Fif-teen patients (60 per cent) became free from acne in two to six months. Two others in which treatment had been interrupted became free in eight to nine months. The remain-ing patients are .still under treat-ment and show improvement. No patient completely failed to im-prove. The above proves what physicians have believed for many years; that is that some disturbance or lack of balance between the sex glands in certain individuals is the cause of acne. Children Should Stand and Sit Erect Your youngster has now returned to school and you have likely had any condition of the teeth and ton-sils inspected and when necessary treated by the' family physician and dentist. If so, it is not likely that you will receive any note from the school physician unless, of course, there is need for an examination of the eyes. However, it is possible that your youngster will need some attention of which, perhaps, the school physi-cian and nurse may not notify you. I refer to the round shoulders and drooping head which is common among school children. What causes round shoulders? In America, we consider round shoulders to be due to fatigue, care-lessness or weakness. In Great Brit-ain they consider that round shoul-ders cause the fatigue and weak-ness. In most cases the round shoulders are due to carelessness of the child, and the thoughtlessness of parents in not making the youngster stand erect and sit erect. Other cases are due to tiredness or to weakness, and here again par-ents can prevent round shoulders by seeing that the youngster gets plenty of rest. Food enters into the matter ol erect carriage. Fortunately most children are fond of food and the diet in most households is rich in vitamins, minerals, proteins, fruits and sugar. Cod liver oil helps those who are a little "droopy." The simplest way to prevent round shoulders and maintain an erect carriage- - at all times is to stand tall and sit tall at aU times. Sitting and standing tall draws shoulders back, throws out the chest, and flat-tens or draws in the abdomen. Hav-ing your child stand "naturally" sideways to a mirror, and then stand as tall as he can, shows him instant-ly how good he looks when he stands erect.

PAWLEY, one of Holly-wood's better known bad men, will get a chance to re-- ; form now that "Big Town" is returning to the air.

She's the feminine charmer of "Tarzan's Desert Mystery" plays a chorus girl stranded in the Sahara. Looks as if there'd been some drastic changes made in the Tarzan background, but Johnny Weismuller still has the leading role. : There's a lot of sentiment attached to the fact that Amos 'n Andy are again appearing on the National Broadcasting company after a two-ye-absence from its air waves. ' It was on NBC that they first ap-- I peared, and rose to radio fame. ' James Jorijan, son of t Fibber McGee and Molly, makes bis screen debut as one of the sons of Mai. Frank Cavanaugh in RKO's "The Iron Major," which stars Pat O'Brien. The fact that young Jor-- g dan was honorably discharged from the Air Force, in which he had I enlisted, gave him the chance to play Phil Cavanaugh who in real life is a lieutenant in the United States army. United Artists, topping the bids of two other major studios, acquired distribution rights to "Voice in the Wind," which U. A. executives think is a "sleeper" in other words, one of those pictures that are made with-out hullabaloo and coin a mint. It was made on rented stages by Ari-d thur Ripley and Rudolph Monter with no guarantee of a release, they gambled on their ability to turn out a box office attraction. It's "the & story of two gentle people, a man t and a woman, whose love beats against the grim events of a world J at war." Gloria Holden says a compliment Jj Spencer Tracy paid her has influ- - enced her acting career more than it any other one thing. Appearing in f "Test Pilot," with Tracy and Clark Gable, she played the widow of a - pilot killed on the eve of their honey-moon. She finished the scene in which Gable gave her the prize mon-ey that was to have paid for the honeymoon; Victor Fleming, the di-rector, had made her cry steadily for 15 minutes before she went into it. "Honey," said Tracy, "You don't have to ask anybody for anything when you can act like that!" One sure-fir- e way to make an Aus-tralian mad is to let him hear an American actor use a cockney ac-cent when playing: an Australian. Alan Carney, one of the best dialect actors in radio, perfected his "Aus-sie" accent by talking to Australian newsmen at their News Service head-quarters in New York. After the broadcast they phoned him their congratulations. Kate Smith has' begun her 14th year on the air with Ted Collins act-ing as producer-directo- he discov-ered her and guided her to the top.

Far East plantation development accounts for the drop in tho demand for Amazon Valley rubber. Synthetic rubber Is defined as a e combination of molecules that form a substance having the chief characteristics of crude rubber. In 1938 the total of American-controll-rubber plantations was about 260,000 acres, mostly in the Far East. These plantations produced 40,000 tons annualty, or about 8 per cent of U. S. imports. ' if i w6t' '& If you know a Navy man, don't ever call him a "gob" sailors consider the name an insult. You can get on the right side of him though if you offer him a Camel or better yet, send him a carton. Camels are the favorite cigarette with men in the Navy (Army, Ma-rines, Coast Guard, too, for that matter) based on actual sales rec-ords from the service men's stores. And though there are Post Office restrictions on packages to over-seas Army men, you can still send Camels to soldiers in the U. S., and to men in the Navy, Marines and Coast Guard wherever they are.

No Real Hurry The local strong man met a fellow villager. During their conversation the big man called the other, a small man, a liar. The little chap naturally resented this remark. "Now look here," he said, "I'll give you just five minutes to take that back." The big man smiled. "Is that so?" he said. "And suppose I don't take it back in five minutes?" "Then," said the other, after a slight pause, "I'll give you ten minutes" Last Time "How's this?" asked the lawyer. "You've named six bankers in your will to be pallbearers. Of course, it's all right, but wouldn't you rather choose some fr'i's with whom you are on bttter terms?" "No. Those fellows have car-ried me solong that they might as well finish the job." Those Joneses "I wonder 'why we never man-age to save anything?" "It's the neighbors, dear. They're always doing something we can't afford." Schoolboy You'll have to buck up, Dad, we got only 40 out of a hundred for last night's home-work. 'Twas Insight "Was it a case of love at first sight?" "No; second sight. The first time he saw her he didn't know she had money." Put Her at Ease A snob wrote saying that she hoped the schoolmaster was very particular about the class of boys allowed into the school. He replied: "Dear Madam, so long as your son's fees are paid promptly, there will be no ques-tion as to his antecedents." Housewife to Meter Reader You needn't come to read our me-ter any more; my husband has in-vented an attachment to keep it from registering. Followed Instructions Rapping his baton sharply on his music-stan- the conductor of the very amateur orchestra glared round. Then he fixed his eye on the cornet-playe- r. "Here, you! Why on earth did you leave off playing just as we came to the chorus?" "Well," was the retort, "on my music it says 'Refrain'; so I did." Lazy Fellow Wouldn't Pass Up Such a Chance On a certain plantation a work-man loved ease and fishing. When he wasn't fishing he was loafing. One night there was heavy rain, and the next morning all the low places on the plantation were flooded two feet deep. Passing the workman's cabin, the owner found his man seated in an easy-chai- r fishing in a puddle of water. "Here, Henry, you old fool," said the owner, "what! are you doing?" ' "Boss," said Henry, "I'm fish-in'.- " "Well, don't you know there are no fish there?" "Yes, I knows that. But this 'ere place is so handy!" Uncle PAUQt Says: A hundred things that men do are "not good for them," yet somehow they survive. Politics offer such a tremendous field in which to be bogus. Revenge at best only faintly sweet, is generally wholly disap-pointing. A scandal is something that must be bad to be good. Too many people go through life pulling at doors marked "Push." When our soldier boys get back to the farm we can begin to look for a ready-peele- d potato. Rearing children is like getting mar-ried ; you can't use any previously pre-pared rules. |
