HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE IN INDUSTRIAL WORKERS

Most. of us are aware that heart stroke tapoplexy) are due to high blood pressure. Because so many individuals worry unnecessarily about their blood pressure. physi- cians today seldom take the blood pressure after the first two or three visits of. or to. the patient. Almost anything can raise the blood pressure temporarily - a heavy meal. a drink of liquor, some emotional disturbance-and if the patient learns that his blood pres- sure is higher than during his last previous visit he will worry about it

.'Since heart ailments

are such a frequent topic of conversation some reassurance is needed by

those with high blood pressure about the possibility of accidents (strokes) occurring while they are at work.

In "Industrial Medicine." Chi- - cago, Dr, E.-W. Prcbst compares the

persons with high blood pressure with those of an equal number of persons who did the same kind of work but did not ha.ve high blood pressure.

previous studies and the Opinions of leading heart specialists," he writes. "shows that persons with high blood pressure are good in- dustrlal risks and that many per- sons with high blood prcssure. that is pressure above the usual normal limits, can serve industry satisfac- torily over long periods. It is sug- gested that the so-called blood pressure levels for pre-cmployment. industrial examinations be revised upwards."

The thought. then. is that high blood pressure. a condition often present. in conscientious but ner- vous individuals, is not a danger- ous conditien. and that medical ex- aminers for industrial firms should keep his in mind when examining those who are applying for indus- trial positions.

True Success Story

By F. Ii. IIIGAHIIII

New Brunswick's first historian came to that Province when only sixteen months old. That was back in 1783, and the boy": name was Peter Fisher. Like other children of pioneer parents he had few op- portunities for education. but he was bright and made good pro- gress under an English teacher. Beating Stephen Williams, who, we are told, was a fine penman and an expert in mathematics.

This boy soon was to become known as the "great walker" and he frequently covered as much as fifty miles in a single day's tramp- ing over the plains of New Bruns- wick.

When Peter Fisher came to man's estate he married the sweetheart of his youth. Susanna Williams. To this union were born eleven chil- dren. several of whom in the course of time filled important public positions.

I O 0

Mr. Fisher carried on an exten- sive lumber business. but in his spare moments he made a hobby of collecting data about the province in which he lived. Sketches of New Brunswick was his first book. It was printed by Henry Church in 1825. Nation of New Brunswick ap- peared in lli38. Both books are con- sidered quite i'alL:able to-day as they contain many interesting facts about the early days of New Brun- swick.

For instance. he tells us the first census of New Brunswick was taken in 1824. Population, 17. 176, cxclusive of Indians and the Mad- awaska settlement. Ono decade later the population has increased to ll9.-357. There were 6.51 persons to a family and nearly two thous- and more families than houses. So the housing conditions of that time were a big problem as they are in our day.

By this time Saint John was a flourishing little town with grow- zng pains. Old wooden shacks were being replaced by fine homes con- structed of stone or brick. The town boasted a splendid court- house. city hall. four banks, a gram- mar school and two Madras schools. They were also a jail. a naval hospital. poorhouse. some fine churches as well as a couple of good markets which were well patronized by its people.

0 O 0

To name a few of the town's bus- iness places: the St. John Mills and Canal Company. a stagecoach en- terprise. a whalefishing concern and an insurance agency. Societies were well represented. St. Andrew, St. George. St. Patrick, Friendly Sons of Erin, etc.. lent a dash of color and life to the little town.

Heading civic affairs were a mayor. recorder. six alderman. and their assistants. The annual income of St. John was 15.000 pounds. A great grievance of that day was the filthy sewage from the butcher shops and slaughter houses drain- ing down into the market slips.

Turning to the fertile plain about Fredericton. we see an army of new settlers. The capital. too. was expanding. In 1816 the home of Governor Carleton was purchased for a Province House. Nine years later it was destroyed by fire.

ince stood on a hill slope just back .:.m....mm...m.......

of the town. Built of dark gray stone and named King's College. it was large enough to contain some twenty rooms for students. a chapel and a couple of lecture rooms. beside housing the facility. Each day began and ended with divine worship. It required four years of study before students could get their degrees.

C O

St. Andrews was then the third town in order of importance, but it. already was giving way to the border towns of St. Stephen, Calais and Milltown. This change was brought about by the lumber in- dustry. We are further jnformcd that Indiantown over-looked the first sawmill in the Province for sawing deals.

In those days Moncton was call- ed "The Bend."'Ii was only a tiny trading town with a few stores and a wharf where vessels came to load lumber. Campbeliton was laid out in 1836. while a short distance away stood a little hamlet built by an enterprising Yankee. It boasted stores. a tavern. mills and a church.

If this village had a name the writer cannot say. When Peter Fisher wrote his

sketches little wheat was grown in the Privince. Indian corn was the main crop, supplemented by pola- foes. Pigs were fattened with beechnuts. which at that time pro- duced a heavy annual crop. The flesh of the animals was soft and oily. e

O Lumbering has always played an important part in the development of New Brunswick. and in 1823 spruce lumber began to be export- ed. The first deal was sawn in 1829. the first cargo sent. to the old country three years later. By 1824 Saint John was shipping millions of feet of the best lumber in the Province - pine. birch. maple. beech. etc. Other ports sending out large quotas were Miramichl, St. Andrews. Richibucto and Bathurst. Indeed every lake and stream suit- able for the purpose was then be- ing utilized.

Shipbuilding was another portant industry of those days. As many as 75 ships. were built at St. John in the year 1836. while the

"number of vessels owned in that

city stood at 400.

Fishing then. as now. come in for considerable attention and fur- nished a good source of revenue. Cod, haddock. etc.. were picni- iful ln Passamaquoddy Bay. Grand Manan was unrivalled as a fish- ing station

Trade with Britain flourished as early as 1808. When the pine forests became exhausted spruce took its

place. .

As the different centres pros- pered. people demended better op- portunities for education. Women teachers were frowned on. as they were co ldered incompetent for luch wo . but much of this pre- judice against them was removed through the efforts of Dr. Moi-ice. who highly approved the employ- ment of female teachers.

This is a different kind of suc- cess story than those which have appeared in this series. yet it tells what one pioneer boy accomplish- ed under difficult circumstances. Peter Fisher has been in his grave for many years but his work an an historian still stands.

Jamie appeared in the rain and darkness that marked the-week's close. and before that after -strange tokens that these arel-the broom had fallen across the doorway. the white cat on the Mann rug had meticulously washed again I clean face. and the rooster had mounted to a fence-rail to crow after a shower to make James ccnunent: "You'd better tidy up this place.

Sister-to-James came. To re- visit old scenes. (I didn't like to think of this old house without a woman, Ellen-when you were away"). to rest again amid famil- iar surroundings. and to recall with James beloved ha,penings of their childhocd and growing-up years at Aiderlea. It is an era of living about which we know only what we have learned from James who speaks fondly and reverently of thcse .'dea-r departed days." 0 O 0

Jamie too, delights in listening to these tales of his grandfather's and granddaughter tug ing at a sleeve to make him ta e up the thread of the story again should he chance to lay it down even for

The latter. after all, are Just make-believe. but James' charac- ters are alive clothed with sub- stantlal flesh and blood to move briskly along 1in his narrating. And certainly.-"We found her and the calf in the coziest spot that you could imagine. away into the woods. behind a stand of little spruce trees," neighboring so closely that no keen wind of day could pierce their sheltering branches.

ANSWER: The beat way 3 remain young is not to worry over growing old. Lots of Women acquire wrinkles trying to avoid them and in their efforts to keep a girlish figure they starve themselves into withered beldame and look twenty years older than their age Inltcad o ten years younger. .

To a certain extent we can keep our bodies young- lsh by taking care of them and eating and sleeping and working and playing right, but nothing stops the relentless march of time and we only befool ourselves when We think that we can attain a synthetic youth lav thn uaa of cosmetics.

APING voum A manna

Indeed. nothing so emphasizes age as for it to ape youth. A elderly woman never looks so old and haggard as when she is decken out in granddaughter's clotheg. She never seems so senile as when shq ogles men young enough to be her grandsons and talks about her "boy friends".
