PREVENTING DIABETES 1N DIABETIC l-AMILIES
The story i-s told of the surviving
member of a family ct 1H8 biotin‘
ers who was asked how he was still
living at the age oi 1o while his four ‘
other brothers had died in their fifties. His reply was that he had always had a poor appetite. ilis brothers had died of heart and blood pressure disstisvs, including overweight and dlBlJELCs. This was before the days of insulin.
Today iIlSUllH is preventing death In diabetic CllllCllPIl nnd prolonging the lrves of clabriic adults. Ewn ‘where there is n flllilllj.’ history of diabetes. many are preventing dia- betes by avoiding becoming over- pverght.
In "Diabetic News", Dr. Vincent ‘W. Ciacci states that diabetes ex- lsts fnr two reasons. tat Heredity pr ltcrcditary tendency, and tb) overeatkng and cnvirnitmeitt.
In an invustigzitiun of the heredi- tary tendency in diabetes, 200 case studies have been reviewed in the Record Room of the Lankenau Hos- pital, Philadelphia. One hundred 0f these cases were definitely known to have diabetes mellitus (true dia- betes), and 100 showed no symp- toms or laboratory evidence of dia- betes and were usec as control or pomparison cases. All age groups. nationalities and grades of diabetic gllgorder were used. In both groups only those who were intelligent and ‘knew their family history were in- yestigated. This thorough investiga- tion showed:
l. 24 per cent of the diabetics had s history of diabetes in one or more persons in the family tree.
2. 4 per cent of the non-diabetic group had a history in one or more persons in the family tree.
3. Of the diabetic group, 5 per cent hat‘; o history in two or more persons i-n the family tree.

The above investigation wi-th its figures shows that where there is a family history of diabetes the chances of becoming a diabetic are 6 to every 1 where there is no fam- ily ltistory oi’ diabetes.

Those whose birthday i-t is may find themselves in a spot. for un- usual BCJVEXIUITES, new contacts and thrilling experiences, where novelty exceptional conditions or projects hold more than lucrative promise. Sentimental, domestic and roman- tic affiliations are involved, with fine atugury for gratification and ultimate fulfiilments. Yet such might have at root a sense of the static, inertia. or of disinclination to venture forth into unknown fleldss, even though hazards be small and prospects alluring. The rich final is worthwhile.

I woo brood- mo-king at the time ond had or- rtved at the place whore one folds the light. spwingy dough into loaves, tucking them away then into tho greased pans to await the last ris- ing, before the baking. The screen door to the front verandah was being opened and closed softly -- and repeatedly. It. could be Tabby, 1 thought, but she, our cal: of years which go back to well before the war, always enters by way of the back door. Here, through the Sum- iner, she came to open it narrowly and pad in blancily but expectant- Lv at meal time. However, Tabby had been in, and was gone now to her outdoor interests. James and Jamie, too were off before this, to their work up at the other farm. There it was again, the pith Q- t-ning and closing.

I came to open the door. and whom did I find? The grand- daughter from the house across the lane, who while her mother was spreading her wash, had by spells of creeping and walking come to rur house a-visiting. She is s small, active child, bright and hap-

A urlght picture book or a catalogue of merchandise will keep her dc- cupied for some time, as she scans tne pages. Past fifteen months now. each day she grows more interest- ing and dear to her grandfather and me. O l t Jamie's object in going to the other farm was to collect the dis- cards of boards, which fall from Mr. DI; saw. A number of ,those are now fashioned into a neat. lay- out which includes a house. a barn and adjacent fields, where his fan- tied stock eat contentedly at pas- ture. Here he worked busily this evening until bed-time claimed him. "Don't you think" Jeanie asked me, not so long since when a similar project cluttered the floor "that when children are thwush playing. they should be made to pick the playthlngs up and store them tldiiy away?" I sup- pose that they should. but how could one expect any child to dis- turb so bewitching a work as Jamie's until he himself was well content to do so? It might serve to teach him o=iesson in neatness, though I can easily find that bent in the tidy buildings and fences. Why even his cows pasture in l straight row! And after all, such I litter is "only clean dirt" or so I have heard an understanding mother say of just such beguiling building material. There are some mothers, of course, whom I have known who had no room, not even the smallest nook in the kitchen to give over to any ouch childish activity. U I O Oh dear no. "Bluff with you now -out to ploy!" were the stern orders or a frowning "Don't you dare think of bringing that trash tn hora-not into my clean house!"

Be-. cause the like establishes a respect ‘ and a trust in one's mother instead of fear and deceit which the op- posite breeds. Using courtesy and kindness yet allowing for well chosen punishment, administered without anger to the more deter- mined transgressors this is the best course for mothers to follow. O D O “We mothers must never for- get" I read in an extremely wise article recently "that the children, be men and meeting us mischievous little boy or girl there will be a tall young man, o serious young woman.

Meddling Parents _
liblldron llavd lllglit To tiltooso llvn Marriage Partners,
Barrels of tours have been shed over the old question obout how far parents should interfere in the marriages of their children. Children and parents have been parted by it. Hearts have been broken over it. Life-long bitternesses have been engendered by it. Yet no one has ever been able to solve it. Probably because both sides are right and both
so wrong.
The parents contend, and with reason, that their age and experience and knowledge of men and women should enable them to make wiser selections cf life matesioi- their children than the children in their youth and ignorance are able to make for themselves, and that they would not be carried away by their emotions as their children are
Furthermore, the parents argue that inasmuch as they have the bag to hold. if the marriage turns out badly. that they have a right to some say-so in the matter. For it is Father and Mother who have to foot the bills when their daughters quar- rel with their husbands and come home and bring the children.
On the other hand, the youngsters contend, and no one can dis-
pute them, that neither age nor experience qualifies any human being ' to be a matrimonial expert and that many seemingly sure things go l blooey. Also. that as they have to live with the ones to whom they are ,' united in the holy bonds of matrimony. it is more important that they lshould be pleased than that their parents should. ' So you see there is plenty of ground for argument pro and con. but for my part I side with the children, and I think that parents should be very sure of the reason for their objections before they in- t tcrfere in their children's heart affairs. Their selfishness. their avar- ice, their whims. their prejudices, their religious intolerance is not sufficient cause for their breaking off or promoting a marriage.
Yet we see this done every day. All of us know lonely old maids l and bachelors who were kept from marrying in their youth by parents just because Mother and Father did not wish to give them up. There are plenty of mothers who keep their daughters from marrying by developing bad hearts, or by bursting into tears every time a prospect- ive lover appears on the scene. There are plenty of fathers who drive away potential suitors from their daughters by their gruffness. And all of us know plenty of parents who have broken up love affairs be- tween their children and splendid young men and girls because they didn't belong to the some church, or the same political party.
Nor do parents invariably know best when they pick out their , children's husbands and wives. How often have we seen a girl forced 3 to give up her poor, young lover and marry a fat. old good chance that ‘her parents have chosen for her. and then beheld the good chance ' bankrupt and the poor man successful. How often have we seen the
sensible girl, with o nice fortune of her own, that Mother selected for her son. turn into a mlllstone about his neck and a nagger that made his life a torment to him.
The truth is that marriage is the most individual and personal thing on earth and the one thing in which none of us can judge for the other. Happiness in marriage is merely a matter of taste, getting the one that suits you individually. So. this being the case. parents should keep their hands off of their children's marriages and let them do their own picking.
