the canine population of Gamble is
450 and in Wales, 178.

“the two northwest Alaskan villages
dwere in danger of starving, victims
of a secondary problem, apparently
esulting from the disastrous earth-

quake. Scanty walrus hunting, has
sulted in the scarcity of food.
The ADO informed the Anchor-

age SPCA of the need for emer-
gency assistance.
The 'ASPCA contacted AHA head-
quarters at Denver for assistance.
Emergency Animal Relief Funds
were immediately made available
for the emergency mission.
Within 48 hours after the initial
telegram had been sent to AHA's
Denver office, 4000 pounds of dog
food had been delivered to Inter-
national Airport for delivery to
Nome by Alaska Airlines. From
Nome, 2,000 pounds went to each
village by Wien Alaska Airlines.
Both Alaska Airlines and Wien
Alaska 'Airlinés relayed the initial
shipment of food without charge.
One report from Gamble said
that the walrus hunt had been re-
stricted to about 15 per cent of
normal because of shore ice and |
bad weather.

YOUR HEALTH
Sir Charles Bell was a Scotch
physiologist who died in 1842, and
his name lives on as an eponym,
in Bell's Palsy.
A medical eponym is a name or
phrase formed from or including
the name of a person, as in
Bright's Disease or Colles’ Frac-
ture. 4
Bell's palsy is a type of facial
paralysis, it comes on abruptly and
the victim may think he has had a
stroke.
In some patients it is preceded |’
and accompanied by mild pain in
the ear, eye or face.
The facial weakness produces a
feeling of stiffness, with muffled
speech and difficulty in eating due
to relaxation of lips and cheek.
As the affliction progresses, the
eye on the affected side cannot be
closed and waters excessively.
During this stage, the eye should
be washed out twice a day and pro-
tected against dust.
The characteristic feature of Bell's
palsy is distortion of the face, with
the mouth drawn up at the side.
Some are particularly sensitive to
the difficulty in eating and drink-
ing, as it’is impossible to chew on
the affected side.
In some cases there is disturbance
in the taste sense.
There is no definite or direct
cure for Bell's palsy although atten-

facial muscles pending the usual

Fortunately, 85 to 90 per cent of
cases recover completely after in-
tervals ranging from a few days to
several months. -

I Wish I'd Written That
I'M NO
CHUMP
What? Me start in a business? What kind of a
+ chump do you think-I am? Here's what would happen
if I tried to start a business.
I'd have to hire a flock of
lawyers, tax experts, and accountants to keep straight
with government regulations, reports, and investigations,
rulings, directives and taxes. Then if I made a profit
the government would take most of it. The people I hire
would gang up on me and pretty soon alabor boss would
come around with wild demands for more money, less
work longer coffee breaks, and more fringe benefits. I
would have to work harder and worry more than I ever
did working for the other fellow who had a nervous break-
down and had to quit. I'm no fool. I’m going to live off
‘unemployment’ as long as I can, then take what money
I have in that old sock and go fishing unti] it plays out.
After that the government will take careof me. ar
