Happeningsof The NVe-ek

Parlslaris enjoyed s. flight from harsh reality over the Pentecost weekend when Princes Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh paid an elaborate four-day visit to tne capital. The visit showed that the French have lost none of their flair for staging galas with rare taste and -imagination. For festi- vals and parades they also display a sense of organization which ior- eigners here feel is sadly lacking when it comes to business and of- fice routine.

Only complaints during a I11 week-end came from the French press. They charged pompous pro- tocol authorities with keeping them as far from the Princess as pos- sible and the police with iunglng at them with sticks. Gendzrrnes put up a stiff guard when the royal couple visited Versailles. The fountains were turned on. the grass was specially manicured, but the huge park was closed to the public and press. Reporters hao to climb walls and crawl under hedges. One photographer tried unsuccess- fully to disguise himself as a tree.

Every woman invited to the cere- monies honoring the couple had bought a "new look" costume. Not since prewar days has Paris seen so. much chic.‘ The latter charged costumes as‘ often as three and four times a day. Her clothes were "new look." with full skirts and heels much higher than she wears in England. A sapphire and dia- mond clip worn with a deep blue ensemble. and a diamond clip pin- ned to an outfit of chartreuse worn with brown shoes and acces- sories. were particularly admired.

MORE ABOUT LOW-BACK PAIN

Low-back pain, often loftOmpgn. led by 801611108. is so conunon that I write about it often so that many may obtaid relief by getting an idea 0d the usual causes. l Low-book pain, due to infection

or general disease of the body, is

not relieved by lying down m- by having the body assume any par- ticular position. On the other hand. low-back pain due to injury, fall, slip, mlsstep or by poor carriage of the body. is relieved by lying down or putting the body in such a position that there is no “pui1" on nerves and muscles of the low- er back.

One 01f the causes of low-back pain due to faulty posture is that found in those men and wqnen with a large abdomen. Tlhus in the "Quarterly Bulletin," Northwestern University Medical School, Dr. Sam-uel J. Lang states that if the overweight stands in the erect posi- tion, there ls a deeper curve forward of the lower back, then a deep .~r curve backward of the upper back, together with a spasm nml gel-am of all the muscles of the back which hold the spine bones togeth- er and the spine erect.

Despite the foot that the bones of the spine are out of line with one another, Dr. Lang states mat the pain is probably due to soft tis- Bue vhllvses-suoh as muscle spasm 0r to inflammation of the ends of the muscles as they merge into fibrous tissue before they ans in- serted into the bones fonming the JOIntS.

What about treatment of low- bsck pain?

Recent lnyurles, severe malform-

qtlcns of the spine. and disturbance of the-disks between the bones of the spine are belt handled by an prthopedic surgeon. The backache found in pregnant women demands adequate medical care. When the patient becomes convinced that ob- -eslty and weakness of the abdom- llnai wall rathq than pelvic dis- ‘olscements cause so many cases of law-back pain. she is willing to ¢o- [operate with her physician. Redun- ging the weight and simple sbbzm- ,fnal exercises often relieve spasm land pain.
