A new clue to lung cancer which may be connected with driving an auto-

studies, associates high Iiing cancer with high mileage of city driving. He
states that driving above 12,000 miles per year is associated with a lung
cancer hazard fully twice that of driving mileages below this level, and that
this association is related to the inhalation of motor exhaust products.

A new multidimensional non-hormone compound,
Pre-Mens, that is being used successfully to treat wom-
en who suffer the “monthly slump” caused by pre-
menstrual tension, a common disorder that brings on
insomnia, irritability, headache, depression, anxiety,
backache, temper tantrums and weight gain. This vex-
ing problem which sometimes causes a complete break-
down in a woman’s daily activities—home, business,
■school—has been the subject of much study by the
medical profession.
At the recent American Medical Association meeting,
a Philadelphia gynecologist reported on a study wherein 50 women suffer-
ing with varying degrees of premenstrual tension were treated with this
preparation. He found that 80% of the women given the drug were able
to pursue their daily routine without interruption because of the relief they
obtained.

The practice of ginning cotton
in the order of arrival at the gin
needs revision. The reason, says B.
G. Reeves, extension cotton gin-
ning and mechanization special-
ist, is (the ever-increasing number
of machines used to harvest the
fleecy staple.
Machine harvested cotton, he
says, usually has a higher mois-
ture and trash content than hand-
picked cotton and 'different set-
tings of gin machinery and drying
equipment are required for each
type. A modern gin can turn out
a bale of cotton every 6 to 10
minutes and there isn’t time
make the needed adjustments on
an individual bale basis. The re-
sult, points out Reeves, somebody
loses and it is usually 'both the
grower and ginner.
The answer to the problem is
the grouping of seed cotton on
the gin yard according to the
method of harvesting or moisture
content. Reeves says that a num-
ber of gins in Texas have been
using this plan and both the gin-
ner and grower have profited'. The
grower has received a better sell-
ing price for his cotton and the
ginner has been able to do a bet-
ter ginning job.
Reeves suggests that farmers
and ginners get together and
agree on a procedure for solving
the problem locally. In some in-
stances, hand-picked cotton has
been ginned during the day and]
machine harvested cotton during!
the night. If machine harvested
bales are in the majority, then
ginning hours can be adjusted to
(take care of the local situation. i
Experience has Shown, says the
'specialist, that trucks and trail-
ers are usually back in the field,
under the grouping plan, as soon
as they, were under the old system
of ginning on a first come basis.
The best ginning job is done when
the lint moisture is 5 to 7 percent.
Drying to this level, says Reeves,
gives a smooth sample and allows
proper cleaning. He advises farm-
ers and ginners to get together on
the problem before the heavy har-
vesting season begins.

The Seniors are glad to be 'back
in school once 'again. They would
like to welcome a new pupil,
Kenneth Harrison, into their
class. Class officers were chosen
and the following students were
elected: Thomas Smith,
dent; Rosemary Burns,
president; Charlsey Childress,
secretary; Donnie Evans, treas-
urer; Odell Thacker, historian;
and Linda McCullough, reporter.
Joann Gibson was Chosen as stu-
dent council representative. The
homeroom mothers are Mrs. T. J.
Gibson, Mrs. Cloyd Gibson, and
Mrs. Ralph Evans.
The seniors met and discussed
money-making projects for the
class trip and annual. As the
year goes on, many seniors will
be busy selling magazines, run-
ning cold drink machines, 'back-
ing a talent show and play, and
caring for concession stands. The
projects will ibe divided and the
money will go into two funds.
Mrs. G. W. Tillerson is sponsor
of the senior class and Mrs. W.
R. Roach is sponsor of the an-
nual.
In the first called meeting, the
seniors elected annual staff of-
ficers. Serving the 1961 Blue De-
vil is Sally Roach, editor; Eddie
Sue Gibson, business manager;
Jimmy Lowe, photographer; and
typists, Charlsey Childress, Rose-
mary Burns, Gerald Eldridge,
' Donnie Evans and Joann Gibson.
Many of the seniors have trav-
eled to Greenville and Wolfe City
selling ads. This process is one
of the big ways of financing the
annual each year.
| The first deposit on the annual
i will be due in a matter of days.
