Q; Is it necessary for me to in- vite the minister who olfiolates at my daughter's wedding to the wedding reception?

A. "This would depend upon the also of the wedding. If it is to be a very large wedding, then both the minister and his wife (if he has one) should be invited. If, however, the wedding is a small one just for relatives and intimate friends. an invitation is not nec- essery.

Q. Is it necessary to repeat the name of a person to whom you have just been introduced. as. "How do you do. Mr. Brown"?

A. Yes, this is always good form. It indicates that one has paid strict heed to the introduc- tion and is more sincerely pleased at the meeting.

Q. What is the proper level to which water glasses for the dinner table should be filled?

A. They shouldn't be than about three-fourt.hs full.

As a youngster, I would smile as I read of the medicine man of a primitive tribe boiling the organs or glands of humans and animals

n and feeding the liquid to the sick.

Today extracts of various glands of the body are in daily use for special ailments. Extract of the pancreas (insulin) controls dia- betes, formerly always fatal; liver and liver extract control pernicious anemia. also formerly fatal. The pituitary gland (the size of a pen

'in the skull), produces an extract

that in turn activates the adrenal glands (situated one above each kidney). the extract of which is believed to be the cure for arth-

For years it has been known that extract of the thyroid gland (in front of neck) stimulated all the body organs and body process- es to work harder. thus hastening healing of various illnesses.

Just as various uses have been. found for insulin. aside from con- trol of diabetes, so have a number of uses been found for extract of the thyroid gland (the key gland of the,body.l ' In Michigan State Medical Soc-

iety Journal, Dr. R. C. Moehlig

discusses the value of thyroid sub- stance in aiknents in which the thyroid extract is not commonly used. Certain cases of alopecia (baldness) with loss of eyebrows. eyelashes and body hair have been corrected by the use of thyroid ex- tract. some of these patients have such a poor quantity or quality of thyroid juice that it actually slows up instead of hurrying the body processes. When the thyroid gland is removed from these patients. the hair returns. ! Dizziness, a condition found with underactlve thyroid gland. is cor- 'rected by use of thyroid extract. because an undernctlve thyroid gland often interferes with hear- ing. Thyroid extract has been used successfully for chronic head aches land for migraine (one-sided head- rnche with nausea and vomiting). lln children when headaches run in the family, thyroid extract has been shown to be of great benefit.

Young Mnrlfs, Problem

How Can He Meet Right, Girl In Strange City?

DEAR MISS DIX: The girl I would like to marry must be physically attractive. She must luive a charming personality. Slit must be intelligent. She must have common sense. She must have a sense of humor nnd be fun-loving. She must be.domestic. But where am I going to meet such a girl? That's the rub. ' Probably it is true that this type of girl is at home most of the time. but how can I find that home. or how gain admittance if I did? Parties and dances do little good to the girls who are not asked, and the girl who is asked owes her escort the right to her company and the obligation of not prowling around for new acquaintances. Our social codes, in so far as they relate to in- troductions and acquaintances. were designed for simple and small communities where every one grew 4 - 'up knowing every one else. But today. if we iivt in cities. there is no community life and the family across the street are as much strangers as if they lived in another land. This makes it very difficult for young people of the opposite sex to meet under suitable conditions. - GEORGE
