THE DENISON PRESS
After Forty Is
Time For Often
CheckByDoctor
In order to enjoy the best
possible health at an age beyond
forty, )Dr. Geo. W. Cox, State
Health Officer, advises that
persons of this age be regularly
examined by their family phy-
sicians to discover in time those
ailments which are likely to
contribute to the ill health of
older people.
The principal foes of health
confronting the middle years
are heart disease, cancer, kid-
ney disease, high blood-pressure,
hardened arterien, apopjexy,
diabetes, and arthritis. Arth-
ritis is conspicuous among
these diseases because it is
seldom fatal but is probably the
most common cause of suffering
and disablement.
Dr. Oox advises periodic phy-
sical check-ups, the avoidance
of over-weight during the mid-
dle years of life and the ob-
servance of the natural restric-
tions imposed by increasing age.
Persons with damaged hearts
should learn their limitations
and never exceed them. In gen-
eral, they should artjid excess-
ive fatigue, hard or (prolonged
exertion, exposure to cold wet
weather; they should eat mod-
erately, use tobacco sparingly,
if at all, and stop all activity
before breathlessness occurs.
Medical care in middle age
has two aims. The first is
prompt diagnosis or attention
to illness which may mean the
difference between continued
good health and prolonged in-
validism. The second aim is as
important as the first, and that
is prompt altention to any
known illness in order that it
may not progess and to allow
an opportunity for a complete
cure.
/Despite limitations and com-
plications, Dr. fcox declared that
the second half of life can be
come the better half if close at-
tention /is paid to general health,
and periodic examinations dis-
close any incipient illnesses in
time for early treatment.

End of the Line for Joes
or Just a Stop-over?
What kind of a town is DENISON going to be after the war? Is it
going to be able to attract, to keep and hold the returning soldier ai
a citizen, worker and buyer? Is it Uoing to continue to march ahead
—dr is it going to go to seed? Will there be planning . . . business
planning, recreational planning for the young, planning for better
schools—in a word, planning for living? It afl depends on the
amount of thought and cooperation that is given to the problems now!
A few months from now may be too late because p|retty soon the
soldiers will be coming home.
When Joe left home a couple of years back, he knew what he was
goirjy to do after the war. He was coming right back home to the
old home town of DENISON. He .was going*!*) take up his old job,
or maybe he was goini? back to school or college.
Right now Joe isn't sure. He's been around. He's seen things.
Between combat missions and cam paigns," Joe has had the chance to
do some thinking. It's sort of given him the itch to move on.,
Joe has heard a lot about the good jobs, the bii?gefr future of this or
that town or city—places where he can use those new service-taught
skills he has mastered. Places where can make money—enough
to settle down and raise a family.
Yet, deep in his heart, Joe doesn't want to leave DENISON. It is
his home. He sort of likes the old town. He has thought of its place
ir his heart a thousand times while fighting for the right and privi-
ledl,"e of our enjoying the good American freedom. /They would
like to come back and grow with their home town.
Our returning sejrvice men and women want a LIVE town. They want
a town with a future. They want the sort of town we can help our
DENISON to become if we start at the job NOW!
