By SECOND-GUESSE- d. Whether it's an editorial or a hot news story, a newspaperman hates to get "beat" on a story. Ernie Linford said about the same as the above in a Thursday a. m. Salt Lake Tribune editorial, after we had our paragraph all set in type. It's encouraging to know that a guy like Ernie feels as we do about the bill. They say great minds run in the same channel but I Dunno, so do little pigs! We've started receiving the Senate Journals, so we know we're again on the "important-document- " mailing list of Senate President Mark Paxton. To date we haven't received any House Journals, but hope our Representative, Arlo Messinger will send 'em down.

All proceeds from the game will be added to the March of Dimes funds. The drive in Beaver County this year has been a vigorous one, with county and community leaders striving to surpass all previous campaigns in order to swell the national funds so urgently needed to combat increasingly large epidemics of polio. "Foot of Dimes" cards, benefit bingo games, and a friendly contest between two city directors, with a new hat as the prize, have been added to the usual activties, and a record contribution for the county is assured. Dr. Eugene Davie, Milford city director, and Rex Carter, Beaver city chairman, are anxiously watching the final week's contributions, and urging their constituents to dig deep and be very generous. The losing city chairman must buy a new hat for the winning city chairman.

Thursday evening the Marching Mothers make their annual calls at the homes of the community, and Friday evening the annual Birthday Ball will be held. The Melodians, crack Milford orchestra, is contributing their musical services,, and Al Kirk has donated use of Arion Hall for the occasion. Also, on Friday, the Senior Class of Milford High is turning over to the drive- all money collected at their noon movie.

And pretty soon they're going to take up the proposition of. luring more tourists to Utah and trying o get them to stay a little longer in our state, so they can spend more dollars here. Frankly, we hope the Senate doesn't approve the Sunday closing bill. A guy that likes beer gets just as thirsty on Sunday as he does any other day, and in the majority of cases he's going to try to find a little beer if he wants it. And that means knocking on the back door of the beer joint and trying to talk the cleaner-uppe- r into selling him a few cans. And putting more restrictions than we already have on the pleasures a tourist can indulge in isn't a very good way to go about pleasing him. It's just another way of telling him to drive on to Nevada or Wyoming for N. the week-enabout Just, everyoneadmits that the Volstead Act was the greatest mistake our Washington lawmakers ever made, but you still can't convince the "professional" reformer that morality comes thru education, not legislation.

The threat to life from influenza .terns not only from the disease itself, but from secondary infections commonly known as 'strep. Most of these secondary diseases can be treated effectively by the use of such drugs as penicillin, streptomycin, terramycln and other antibiotics. The best and safest drug of this group is penicillin and it is recommended that treatment using this drug, by daily injections, be continued ' for three to seven days and should be accompanied by bed rest and adequate fluids. Penicillin Is excreted rapidly from, the body and no matter how large the dose, the injection must be repeated in 24 to 36 v hours, in order to provide proper treatment levels. Promiscuous use of penicillin, orally, or the use of other antibiotics, is dangerous. Steam inhalations is the best treatment for the disturbing cough. Cessation of treatment too soon,- or an attempt to get back on the job before recovery is complete, often causes a recurrence of the Many serious comsymptoms. plications are occurring such as pneumonia, mostoiditis, sinusitis, kidney Infections and rheumatic fever. Some of these con ditions require hospital care, and the hospital personnel in Milford is working hard and long in an effort to avoid loss of life and to give the best possible care to those hospitalized. The best prevention for Influenza is proper rest, good food, and avoidance of overwork and wear chilling. Children should ' warm clothing, such, as long undergarments to cover the arms and legs, as well as warm coats for outside wear and hats designed to cover the ears for against the cold. The present epidemic is widespread and any effort to close the schools or other public places would only serve to penalize those who are immune. Vaccinations are available and can be given for prevention of this illness, but their use is not recommended by the public health authorities. - pro-tecti- , It is requested .that telephone calls to the hospital, to ask for information as to the welfare of SWAMPED BY f1! llrtU rantact fmt Mml toVETERANS ADMINISTRATION the present , Milford's High School faculty trimming at the hands of the Beaver faculty in a Whiting, Farrel Lish and Gael March of Dimes benefit game at Elmen The menu committee in- Beaver last Monday: The y racked' up such a cluded Jesse Long, Roy Myers, score that .the Milford Dr. Kohler, Mr. Nielsen, Howard instructors are keeping awfully Curtis and Lorraine GUlins."

SamX""1D2f' MHSFACETY great many , people have questions in their minds regarding different phases of medical care. Many of these questions are answered by the family physician. However, because it is impossible for the doctor to answer all of these questions ' personally, it is felt that it would be worth while, in the ublic interest, to write a series of informal articles attempting to answer many of these ques tions. In addition, if any read ers have questions, they may be submitted in writing to the ed- itor of this paper, and the authors will attempt to explain them in succeeding articles. In view A - s iv n. pii, patients, be discontinued during this epidemic phase. The people visiting hospital patients are urged to limit their visits to only two members of the family during visiting hours, in particular. Overcrowding of the ward room should be avoided. When small children are critically ill allowances are made, as it is oftentimes helpful to the? nursing staff for one member of the family to be present part of the time. Registered nurses who are not presently employed are superintendent, Mrs. Jacqueline Williams, and offer 'their help. The general public is requested to keep their porch light burning until late at night if they have called the doctor to see them at home. The doctors are making so many house calls that they may not arrive until midnight. Cooperation antr understanding from the patient and the doctor will be beneficial in end- jiig this epidemic. , - |
