HOMEWORK

Pros And Cons Of Rice Diet NEEDN'T BE

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M,D,

RECENTLY 1 have received many use the low salt diet together with

letters from people who want to know just what can be expected from the rice diet in cases of high blood pressurd.

Like every other treatment for high blood pressure, this one has both advantages and disadvantages. Its chief value seems to lle in the fact that it is low in salt, and recent studies show, that a low intake of salt may be quite helpful in many cases of high blood pressure.

Of course, it goes without saying That If the cause of high blood pres sure can be determined, treatment should be directed towards the con- dition which is keeping the pressure up. But, in many instances, no dell- nite reason for it can be found. It ig in

these cases that the low salt tliet should be tried.

In no instance, however, should such dieting be attempted without the direction of a physician, because lowering. the salt content of the body may produce such symptoms weakness, sickness at the stomach and muscle cramps, before a fall in the blood pressure occurs

Kidney Discaso

It has also been found that the low salt, dlet must be tot- lowed for a period of weeks before its effect on the blood pressure can be determined. With this in mind, you can see how necessary it is for the amount of urea in the blood to De checked at regular intervalsk Only a physician can do this.

To increase the loss of salt from the body, certain preparations con- aining mercury may be given by injection. When the mercurials arc used, the patient may be given a more liberal diet. The mercurial preparations are given by injection about iwlee វា week under your

hysician's guidance.

A CHORE.

By CARRY CLEVELAND MYERS, Ph.D.

WHEN homework is mentioned it has a wide variety of meanings

to different parents. To one parent It may mean that a child, ngo eight dr ten, must sit and work and worry over doing a long list of arithmetic very hard words to problems or spell, with the parents participat- ing in the orgy of hampering emo- tions involved. To another parent it means long, late hours for the adolescent youth over Several as- sigruments which the parents won't let him

"he must finish because have sleep."

To still another parent homework may mean school assignments which the youth merely daydreams over, always complains about and avoids when he can escape parental prea

ure. To ever so many other par- ents homework means much for them to do and to worry about, and the youth rarely or never to do.

Companionship With Child

To an occasional parent, homo- work may mean an opportunity to enjoy companionship with the child. especially at helping him find m- terials relative to some very fasci- nating work he has been doing
