Toay's Babies Active, Alert,
Ohe of the best ways for
liodern parents to assure their
babies will tune in and turn on
the world around them is
10 provide them with plenty
of mental and physical stimuli
from their earliest moments.
Right from the start, a baby's
senses are taking in the world
around him and reacting to it,
nod it's a wise parent who
provides the proper atmos
phere for the development of
baby's senses of sight, sound,
touch and smell.
Today's new parents can
look to a number of innova
tions on the market which
will provide the babies with
the proper aids to growth and
development.
For instance, Scott Paper
Company has developed a
disposable diaper, baby Scott,
which insures complete free
(loin of movement for baby.
Its trim, low-cut front and
snug closing provides both
comfort and protection. Con
sisting of a disposable pad,

baby Scott eliminates the
droopy maxi fit of conven
tional diapers which tend to
restrict baby's movements.
Ti - rs freed baby is free to re
act to the world around him.
Modern parents will want
that world to be one which
will stimulate baby's mental
and physical growth. Even his
toys can be a means of awak
ening his powers of thinking
and acting.
As an example, a series of
playthings has been designed
to help develop a baby's leg
and arm muscles, balance
and coordination.
In the collection is a styliz

Many of these rooms are in

Compression Is Therapy for Leg Problems
How does medical science treat varicose veins and other severe
leg problems caused by faulty circulation of the blood?
"There is a variety of treatments, including surgery in serious
cases," said William 0. Elson, director of medical research for
the Bauer & Black division of
the Kendall Company, "but the
most common and most ef
fective therapy, in most cases,
is simply compression.
"Down through history."
Elson continued, "compression
was achieved by a number of
prim it iv e . and clumsy
methods." Even today, some
women bandage their legs, an
inexact and sometimes danger
ous practice. '
"Because of new synthetic
elastic, which is stronger and
more durable than rubber it
self, and which is lightweight
and washable as well, science
has approached the ideal of
achieving perfect, and comfort
able, compression in modern
elastic stockings," Elson said.
Only elastic hosiery provides
the true compression which
varicose veins require for sup
port, Elson pointed out. He
cautioned .against the use of
"support" hosiery when the
doctor has prescribed ; elastic
stockings, although Bar
Black manufactures both types'
Tip For Older Women
The scientist also offered a
valuable tip to older women:
"While you can buy Ultra
Sheer elastic stockings which
are almost indistinguishable
from ordinary nylon hosiery,
surgical weight elastic stock
ings are still a great value. It is
true that their appearance is
One Acre At A Time
Land Barons Take Over 50 States
MARYVILLE, TENNESSEE
An enterprising business
man, Realtor Julian Allison, is
creating a new crop of "land
barons" by the thousands with
his unique idea of selling
them property in all 50 states
at a total "bargain price" on
ly $14.50.
To get his project under
way, Allison spent 6 years in
researching, inspecting and
buying property until he had
acquired bona fide title to one
acre in every state in the Un
ion.
Each square inch plot rep
resents a joint and undivided
interest to at least one full
acre in all 50 states. "Tenancy
in common" entitles owner to
full use of entire acre. For
one price, he issues a corn
plate set of 50 legitimate
deeds and a map showing
general location of all tracts.
Aware
mechanical and counting abil
ity.
Many of today's child ex
perts agree that a baby begins
learning the minute he is
born and stimulating hi s
senses of sight, sound, touch
and smell is the surest way
to start him on the road to
knowledge, of himself and
the world around him.
not so chic as the others, but
they provide much warmth, as
well as firm support. Durable
surgical weight elastic stock
ings are still a great favorite
with many women who have
worn them for years. They do
their shopping in them and
switch to ultra sheer elastic
for social occasions."
When To Put Them On
Elson also suggested that
women who need elastic hos
iery for support should learn
to get used to putting the
stockings on b e f ore getting
out of bed each morning.
"Since compression is the
key to their effectiveness, it is
wise to put on the stockings
before the weight of the body's
blood supply distends the
veins," the researcher said.
One more point was made
by Elson with regard to ideal
compression through elastic
hosiery:
"It is important that such
s t o c kings be scientifically
knitted, so that the foot and
the ankle receive more com
pression than the calf or the
upper leg. This is just the op
posite effect from that which
is created when a manufac
turer depends only upon the
elastic material to give com
pression for the ankle, of
course, is much smaller than
the calf."
Since all of the sites are
in sceMc areas and easily ac
cessible by public roads, it is
expected that many buyers
will i.se their new property
for r!creational purposes.
"There's no property tax
liability involved," Allison
said. The average person
seems excited over the ability
to own property in all 50
states at such a 'peanuts'
price. Also, many businesses
are ordering sets of deeds as
gifts for customers."
Although all deeds are com
pletely legal and can be re
corded in the various counties
and states, he admitted that
he expects few buyers to do
so.

The Art of Belgian Lace
Lace, that gossamer embellishment on nature's cobweb, has
always exerted an irrestible attraction. Belgium, where bobbin
lace began, was and still remains famous for its lace. Brugge has
remained the center of the industry and in the past four centuries
the tools and working meth
ods have undergone very little
change.
Bobbin lace is woven over
stiff parchment on which the
pattern is marked. The num
ber of threaded bobbins var
ies from 4 to 1200 or more.
Bobbin lace, worked on cush
ions 7 inches thick, is divided
into Straight Lace (executed
on a square cushion with a
particular number of bob
bins), and Free Lace (execut
ed on a round cushion where

"Make Mine An Extra Dry Electronic Martini"
The cash register is honest, even cour
teous, with an ever-ready "thank you"
for anyone it serves, but its heart is
as cold as steel. Recently, however, it
has learned a gentler art than money
changing. A new version the NCR
"Electra-Bar" actually mixes cock
tails, a friendly pursuit almost every
where.
The NCR "Electra-Bar" has a reper
toire of 36 recipes selected by the bar
owner who also stipulates the quanti
ties and proportions of the ingredients.
The bartender simply touches one but

The "Electra-Bar" pours the cocktail

the "Electra-Bar" subtracts the liquor
dispensed from the inventory it keeps

all the conventional register functions.

Keeping Costs Down On The Farm
PITTSBURGH The first

now on the market.
It is composed of a light

high-strength Temper Rib sid

barrier of aluminum foil. The
new panel not only minimizes
on-site labor time, but reduces

Insulation value of the panel
—using a 1 1 / 2 -inch polystyrene
core—is equivalent to what
could be achieved with a 56-
inch-thick concrete wall.
Initial applications by Ag

labor and time savings were
realized on a 432-foot layer
house on the Raymond Sperry
farm, Atlantic, Pa.

FISH THE COOL. SPOTS
Fishing is the only sport in
the world when finding a cool
spot may mean you've found
a "hot spot".
Most anglers look to tradi
tional "hot spots" for their
summer fishing success, when
—in reality—they should be
searching out those cool, shad
ed places where fish find life
more pleasant.
And a likely place to find
such an area is to check the
back ends of coves where wat
er is shallowest. For here, by
mid-summer, water plants
such as algae and moss have
developed a thick, spongy
layer that serves as a water
conditioner for fish.
A common theory brought
to the attention of the fishing
department at Mercury out
boards, is that water is cooler
beneath such layers of plant
life. For one thing, the water
is shaded from direct rays of
the sun. Another thought is
that the plants act as an evap
orating cooler for the water
underneath. Whatever the rea
son, these thick beds of water
plants are good places to fish.
Tempting a bass or pike out
of a cool spot beneath the
moss isn't easy. One method
calls for using a pork rind
frog, with a single weedless
hook. (Another popular lure is
a sponge rubber frog or
mouse, with double hooks im
bedded in the lure to prevent
their being clogged by algae
or moss. The weedless feature
is important.)
