ADVICE To FREQUENT BLOOD DONORS Many men and women, anxious to donate blood to the Red Cross or hospitals, may wonder if their blood would be the right kind and rich enough, and also if it were. how often could they donate blood and remain well. In the German Medical Journal. Stuttgart, Drs. D. Remy, H. Gol- deck. and E. Kruger investigated the blood of those who donated blood frequently. Twenty men and 20 women who had frequently don- ated their blood to a hospital blood bank had shown normal vnlue8 on routine control blood counts. The men had donated on an average of 11.26 litcrs (about 11”. quarts) of blood on 26 occasions in the course of nine years mid the women had donated a total amount of 9.22 liters on 27 occasions in the course of six 3'EHl'S. Serum iron determinations (tests) were carried out in all these don- ors before tlicv made fin additional donation of their blood. Of the 40 donors, :5 had reduced values of serum iron; ill 9 the serum values were at the l-one-st normal limit, and 16 had still normal values. Iron tolerance tests were per- formed mi six donors who had slightly .xiitinormal or normal val- ues of sviuni iron; the. absorption of iron was determined in these donors after an oral dose (taken by mouth) of 204 mg. of a proprietary iron preparation. Results showed a strongly increased iron absorption. 'In the majority of the frequent blood donors, It masked (hidden) deliciency was thus demonstrated by the reduced serum iron level and by the increased absorption of iron administration of test doses. A thorough chemical examination of the protein content of the blood in six donors who had given a particularly high number of blood donations did not reveal a significant protein deficiency or loss. Notwithstanding these satisfac- tory iiiidiiigs of the conditions of the blood in these frequent blood donors. those research physicians state that it seems advisable to urge frequent blood donors to keep to a high protein diet. In addition to keeping to a high protein diet- meat. eggs. fish. milk-It is sug- gested that an ddltional iron sup-l ply be taken as a protection againsip any imn deficiency, by all frequentl blood donors. Finally. and this is most import-, am, the interval between a blood donation of from 350 to 500 cc, (pint) and the succeeding donatlonl should be tivo to three months. i i :I.I:-ZI:I:I:IX-:-;- r.-u ' Cook' Corner l .

Most of us have so many things to do, and ii. great many more things we are planning to do when we have the time and opportunity. our very activity keeps us so busy that we tend to overlook the fact that there are a great many peo- ple who are shut out from the normal type of life by being shut in. To remind us of these folk, and to urge us to do something for them the first Sunday in June is set aside annually as Shut-in's Day." "Who are the shut-ins?" There is little need to ask, for every community has them; folks who are shut in through age. disability and various types of illness . . . They all are compelled to lead a restricted life. and some of them readily admit that only the kind- ness of friends and the considera- tion of visitors enable them to remain normal in their thinking and attitude to life.

I was in the hospital more than a my after I came home my husband said he didn't love me cl left. My baby and I went to live with my mother, 1 suppose my husband can't be blamed for not want. ing is wife in a wheelchair. but I still love him and miss him very much. Friends do come to see me, but I am lonely. In a fewaveelcs I'll go back to the hospital again for an operation. I need friends 5., much; how can I meet people and have them like me? W. T, HEARTLESS COWARD ANSWER: Your husband just didn't. havr rm courage to face his responsibilities like a man. Being so very young when he married, he apparently be. lieved that marriage was a romantic dream with ilnrlel Nlasen no strings attached. Like a disillusioned child, he ran from his obligations to pursue his own ideas of fun. In time hi-'1: learn how wrong he was, and let's hope it won't. be too late.

Son and your family As you learn, in spite of your affliction, to get. around. mix ivith peoplg outside your home. and make a place for yourself in church, school and community life. You'll meet many fine persons whose affection for you will be motivated by admiration-not pity.

While you are in-the hospital, talk mm the nurses, thc welfare ivorker. the representative of the National Foiiiiztn. tion for Infantile Paralysis. They may have suggestions for building your social life. You face a difficult future, but you have the Courage to meet it. DEAR MISS DIX: I have a 12-year-old girl friend who has me worried. Im 14. She is very loud and unmannerly. She seldom stays in her own house during the day since her mother works nights and sleeps during the day. Consequently, the girl is on the streets, and is chased by all the boys. They take her for something she isn't, but mav turn into if someone doesn't take an interest in her. ' l ROBERTA C ANSWER: Since you seem to take a sincere interest in the girl- and it's a good thing someone does-why not enlist your mother's aid in improving the child? The girl is too young to be responsible for her own actions. and since she is being woefully neglected by her mother, some adult should step into the picture and help her. Your mother, or a. sympathetic teacher, could do the job. See what you can do to em.” DEAR MISS DIX: Last. summer I went with a certain boy. and since we saw each other quite often, I became tired of him and we broke off. Now I realize I was wrong. and that I love him very much, we meet on the street and say "Hi!" to each other. but that's all. I know he doesn't go steady, and neither do I. He's 18 and I'm 16. JEANIE ANSWER: Since the boy is friendly when you meet him, and doesn't, have a steady girl, the way is wide open for a renewal of friendship. There's no reason why you can't break the ice by inviting him to a partv at your house or at a friend's. to a school dance, or perhaps to some entertainment for which you just happen to have tickets. If he still likes you. he'll respond enthusiastically.
