DC AA LOCKS SHOP OR MW LOCKS SHOES MM LOCKS SHOES MMW LOCKE SHOES Women have faculties that are completely outside the ca parity of men You would think that men and women except for a few external and convenient differences In structure would be practically Identical in most respects Born of the same parents raised In the identical environment with their male relatives fed the same food taught in the same schools you have Ahe right to expect that they are the same species as man and should share an identity of mind and understanding with men Indeed it 'is an Important fact about modern woman that she Insists that she does share that Identity By mischance the other afternoon I got aught for nearly two hours in the same living room with seven ladies It was impossible for me to escape even for 10 minutes and there I sat with an opportunity few men have had to investigate and study the' strangest phenomenon known to human nature And that is: how seven women can all talk at once yet all hear what every other one of the seven is saying It is true I have often heard a bunch of women apparently all talking at once at parties and 'on cottage verandas and after church is fet out But it always appeared to be a comic spectacle and never never did it occur to me that any one of them was listening On this occasion of which I speak however all seven-talked for two hours and all at the same time Three of them were in narrative vein each telling a story A different story of course Two were in argumentative mood and pursued a separate and distinct argument throughout the period though with nobody taking the other side The remaining two were merely gossipy and spent the two hours retailing relishy little odds and bits of news unrelated to one another like those you see in newspapers Sailors Keep Blazing Boat Clear of Town bring your shoe-fitting problems to Mr A McKERIHEN MONTREAL Dr Jacques Genes director of the clinical research department of Montreal's Hotel-Dieu Hospital Wednesday announced what is believed to be an "important and fundamental" discovery concerning the cause of high blood pressure Dr Genest after seven years of research said he believes that over-production by the ad- Nationally Known Authority and Consultant on the Correct Fitting of 2-Car Collisions Said Less Lethal renal gland of a hormone called aldosterone is the basic cause of human arterial hyper-tenson also known as high blood pressure The 36-year-old doctor said however a grqat deal of work still has to be done before his findings could be accepted as a proven scientific fact He said it was possible that the presence of more than normal amounts of aldosterone in the bodies of patients suffering from high blood pressure was a coincidence rather than a cause of the disease "But the results obtained strongly support the working hypothesis of the Hotel-Dieu doctors carrying out the research that this disease is caused by a mild chronic state of hyperaldosteronism the over-production of alder-sterone" Dr Genest said Aldosterone is the hormone which regulates the amount ef salt in the body Dr MW Locke Shoes 1 19 In our Shoe Dept 9 aa to 5J0 jua TWILLINGATE Nfld (CP)

Into the air FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 9 Hi A question which can be raised is what are the aspects of the Canadian climate that are responsible for the production of such a good wheat is hoped that my work at Harvard will throw some light on what these aspects of the Canadian climate are" he added As holder of the Guggenheim Fellowship Dr Krotkov will investigate the effects of ell matic conditions on the products of photosynthesis in green plant" That was the purpose for which the fellow' ship was granted In addition he will visit quite a number of laboratories in eastern United States to see the various projects that are under way there He expects to be back at University In the summer of 1956 when he will write the report of his experiments This work will be completed at his own labors tory at Queen's a year from now Dr Krotkov also will bring back to Queen's with him a large number of samples of radioactive substances that will be analyzed at next summer A pioneer In the field of producing radioactive forms of various organic substances which are important in' biology and medicine Dr Krotkov has been working with isotopes since 1948 He has won international recognition for his use of radioactive isotopes in learning more about photosynthesis or the way in which plants' make chlorophyL At his laboratories in the Old Arts building at Dr Krotkov at present has three FhD students and one MA student all using radioactive isotopes They are working on such problems as photosynthesis the physiology and biochemistry of Canadian woods and cancer In plants In charge of his laboratory during his absence will be Dr Victor Runeckles of the Imperial College of Science and Technology London England who is on a post-doctoral scholarship of the National Research Council DETROIT (AP) Your chances of surviving an auto accident are somewhat better in a head-on collision with another moving vehicle than if you crash at the same speed into a tree or bridge abutment And your chance of escaping injury is much better if you are not thrown out of the car by the Impact Traffic safety specialists here for a two-day Ford-sponsored national safety forum and crash demonstration say these things have been established by scientific research They explain that two colliding cars would "mesh" each other each absorbing and dissipating some of the impact energy They add that the passenger gets protection from the car body if he remains within the vehicle I HIS Is personal invitation to men and women who are having shoe problems and a wonderful opportunity to
