Coeds have to be mighty care- ful with their flirtations these days. We heard about one pert under-graduate who turned her chums on the school's football hero one day. and met with ap- parent success.

"Look, we've never been formally introduced." the athlete sta.mmer- ed. "but I've seen you around a lot."

"I've noticed you too," she sti- rnitted.

"Are you doing night?" he offered.

"Why, no." was her excited re- ply. "What did you have in mind?"

"Well, my wife and 1 want to go to the movies, and I wondered if you'd be free to sit with our baby."

REMOVING CERULEV (WAX) FROM THE EARS

Now that physicians and dentists have health-minded people consult- ing them twice a year, it might. be well for all of us to visit an our specialist at least once a. year to have the cerumen (wax) removed from the ear canal. This oerumeii may be present in such a large amount that it blocks the passage of sound to middle and inner car. by preventing the ear drum vib- rating. Why some individuals have an excess of cerumen is not clearly understood; the shape of the outer end of the canal sometimes helps to retain the waxy mass. The im- pacted cerumen is "a mixture of wax , dust, hair, and scales from outer coat or surface of the skin." The symptoms of impacted ceriu- men are (a) decrease in hearing ability, (b) full feeling in ears making many think they have high blood presure. (c) sometimes ring- ing in ears and head noises. id) cough, sometimes slight dizziness. itching. sudden onset of these symptoms after swimming or n showerbath may occur. the water causing swelling of the cerumen mass.

As the removal of this mass with the disappearance of the symptoms Ljulllly requires about one visit to the ear specialist this is well in- vested iimc and money as the pat- ients attempt to remove the mass may involve the use of hairpins, paper clips. and l0OlihDlCkS with serious results. The old saying that nothing smaller than the elbow should be put up into the outer ear still holds good.

While there are proprietary pre- parations which soften the ceru- men so that it can be removed by syringiiig with half-strength per- oxide of hydrogen. the torce or strengtli of the syringe used may not be properly controlled by the patient. himself so that the ear specialist with a controlled pres- sure syringe is best able to remove the plug.

lie first puts in the peroxide and

water, hall and half, in one ear, has it remain in for a few min- utes, patient placing his head on a towel so as to hold in the perox- ide, olive oil, or other preparation to soften the plug, and .then syringes the ear with a hot solu- tion of boraclc acid, a half teaspoon to a glass ,of water. This usually removes the plug in one piece. If not. the process is repeated. It is free of pain. I write about this ceriimen plug at least once a year because it gives so much relief from symp- toms noted albove and also as a warning to the patient not toltry to remove the plug himself.

Sister Complains That Brother

Refuses Aid To

DEAR MISS Dix: All my life my ohief object seems to have been to please my parents. My brother, on the other hand, always did every- thing to upset. them. He'd never give anything-but was always on the receiving end. He's five years my senior and was always my mother's pet. Dad died when I was 19, and during his long iiloeu, Elmer. my brother, wouldn't even run errands for us. That was ten years ago. since then Elmer, my mother and "I have lived together, Mom and I working to keep the home going. my brother working to keep himself in good clothes and build up a fine bank account. Mom works out, then worics at home for her son. doinghiswn.shing,gettin.gupearlytogtethimoftfto his job, and catering to his every whim. I recently had an operation and need another soon, yet I know I can't depend on my brother for one cent of help.

. .a -is I'D cu Muriel Nissan

either of you has for decent living.

Elmer is undoubtedly a. case for a psychiatrist. but since he certainly won't admit it. there's no hope of getting him to go to a doctor for treat- ment. You might take your story to a. family counselor, but I doubt if either you or your mother would act on any advice you received. the main point of which would be that you both leave the house arid Elmer. Your future is bleak, since your mother won't do anything to hurt Elmer, and you, naturally, won't do anything to hurt your mother.

DEAR MISS DIX: I'm is divorcee of 2'1, with a six-year-old son. I have been going with a divorced man a few years older than myself. Though he is very much in love with me, and adores my child, my feel- ing for him is nothing more than deep respect. I can't seem to forget my husband. Should I marry this man, try to forget the past and be

happy, .or would it be a mistake?

ANSWER: It is always a mistake to marry one man when your heart is with another. Very rarely does marriage .d-ul.l the yearning; usually it increases the heartache for a lost love.

MONEY-MAD INDIVIDUAL

ANSWER: Seldom have I heard of a man so brutally heartlex, as your brother is described in your long letter. It's a shame that your mother cant see the truth as you do. Of course, her desire to please him at every tum, her pathetic efforts to win at least one kind word from him. her futile hope that some day he'll change and grant some reward for her years of devotion-all have contributed to the production of one completely self-centered male. There's little hope that after 36 years of spoiling, she'll alter her attitude toward her son, yet this is the only hope
