HEALTH TALK
NRITTEN BY DR. THEODORE
B. APPEL. SECRETARY OF
HEALTH
“There are a great many persons in
Pennsylvania who come within the
course everyone's daily actions are
controlled by habits, a distinction
must be drawn between those associ-
ated with natural and healthy exist-
ence and those that do bodily and
mental harm. It is the addiction to the
latter type that makes slaves of per-
sons,” states Doctor Theodore B. Ap-
pel, Secretary of Health.
“The peculiar thing connected with
this situation is that by far the great
majority of slaves are unwilling to
admit that they are such. Moreover,
not a few of them are quite unaware
of the fact that they are really in that
class. Outstanding members in this
latter category are the men and women
who rely upon any type of stimulant
to deliver the pep that is normally as-
sociated with a vigorous constitution.
These people do not appear to realize
that the consistent employment of
stimulants to achieve temporary vital-
ity will eventually, if not sooner, do
damage to the physiological fabric.
This harm may manifest itself in the
snapping of nerves, in a reduced vigor,
in lowered resistance to disease or-
ganisms, or in a definite disease mani-
festation.
“It should be understood that nature
has fast though easy rules which must
be strictly obeyed if she is to be ex-
pected to give a hundred percent re-
sponse. Mere man-made inclinations
and habits, if against her basic prin-
ciples, can not be successfully super-
imposed on her will
“Too many people refuse to recognize
this unalterable principle. And no bet-
ter example of this fact can be found
then in the widespread, habitual use
of drugs to stimulate alimentary action
which should be a natural process. This
type of person is a slave in the strict-
est sense. And his number is legion.
“Perhaps the largest class of serfs in
the United States are the food slaves
who, chained to the unrestrained de-
sires of the palate, habitually overeat—
with some type of a backfire on na-
ture’'s pert as an inevitable conse-
quence.
“It would therefore pay every per-
son to take a conscientous inventery of
his habits and conclusively eliminate
all those that are definitely beyond the
natural laws. Some sacrifices will have
to be made undoubtedly; even profes-
sional advice may be required.
“However, nature is prodigal in her
returns for kind treatment. And one’s
business in life is, or should be, to get
the most out of nature that she is will-
ing to give. Vital, vibrant life will not
be satisfied with less.”
“The spirit of good will that char-
acterizes Christmas is a beautiful
thing. This desire to help others and
make them happy is an earnest of
mankind's fundamental goodness. Nev-
ertheless there are actually thousands
of persons who bend to the breaking
point in trying to spread good cheer
and weal, who overlook the significant
fact that this sort of thing logically
begins at home,” states Doctor Theo-
dore B. Appel, Secretary of Health.
“For example, a gentleman of my
acquaintance known for his extreme
solicitation for the welfare of his fam-
ily, friends and the public generally,
which solicitation was always beauti-
fully and generously intensified at
Christmas, died a few dags ago at the
age of fifty-seven because this spirit
of helpfulness was sadly lacking where
he himself was concerned. A victim
of devitalizing habits and of an abso-
lute disregard for his own physical
condition, he was forever looking out
for the other fellow but never for him-
self. And the inevitable happened.
“While undoubtedly this is an ex-
treme example, it serves to emphasize
the fact that every person owes a
square deal to his body. Moreover,
that fine as an unselfish spirit may be,
it will not neutralize the bad effects of
improper living and a neglect for the
fundamental demands of nature. There
isno better time to realize this fact
than at the Christmas season.
“In desiring to express the Yuletide
spirit one should not overlook the pos-
sibilities that are presented to one’s
self. This may take the form of a gift
containing the following: An annual
physical examination. Plenty of fresh
air day and night. A walk of at least
two miles daily. Eating with the brain

as well as the teeth by balancing the
diet and keeping it within bounds. In-
telligent attention to the alimentary
system. The censumption of plenty of
water daily. Working and playing
wisely. Obtaining sufficient sleep each
night. And not worrying needlessly.
“This is not an expensive gift, to be
sure, but one that will add years to
life and make those years happy, vig-
orous and vibrant. Why not bestow
it, and thus become a real Santy Claus
to yourself?”

A young man here was being ex-
amined for life insurance and he was
asked what his father died of. He
said: “I don’t remember but it wasn’t
anything serious.”
Up at the Shoe Factory one of the
men was boasting about the good blood
in his family when an outsider butted
in by saying: “How much did you pay
for the transfusions?”
A man from Newtown asked me if I
thought that a doctor could cure his
wife. I asked what was wrong and he
said: “She talks in MY sleep.”
Back at Hartman's restaurant the
other evening a fellow said to another:
one this year?”
Reply: “No, I turned it in on an old
balance due.”
I asked one of our West Main street
ladies if clever women make good
wives.
She said: “Clever women don’t be-
come wives.”
The other evening a lady pianist said
to a little girl: “Would you like to be
able to sing and play like I do?”
Reply: “No. I wouldn't want people
to say such horrid things about me.”
A certain doctor in conversation with
a grave-digger, said: “Aren't you
ashamed of yourself stealing those
flowers from that grave?”
Reply: “Aw, be a good sport and shut
up about it. I've covered up many a
mistake of yours.”
I heard a Salunga man say to a
fellow here: “Is your mother-in-law
living still?”
Reply: “Yes, she’s living all right but
she’s anything but still.”
A chap here got in dutch recently for
obeying his wife. They were at Lan-
caster and she told him to drive
straight home without stopping. He did
and was pinched for crossing an inter-
section on a red light.
“I hope you found the novel I loaned
you interesting,” said a Florin man.
“I did, but not near so interesting as
the letter someone left in it as a book-
mark,” said the chap from town.
At a certain busmess place here
Monday I heard the boss say: “Are you
going to settle up your account?”
“Not just yet,” said the customer.
“Well, if you don’t I'll tell all your
other creditors that you paid me,” said
the merchant.
Santa Claus came mighty near mis-
sing a certain home at Florin as far as
a tree is concerned. A father and son
came to Mount Joy and bought a tree,
while on their way home they lost it
and had to return and buy a second
one.
I am so glad people do foolish things
or we would have a deuce of a time

It's pretty hard to give a successful
man advice but I do want to make a
suggestion to Mike Rollman. If he
could invent a scheme whereby folks
could raise poultry with as many legs
as centipedes, so many of us wouldn't
always have to eat necks and wings.
That just reminds me that George
Mumper said he was fourteen years old
before he knew that chickens had any-
thing else but wings, necks and other
boney parts.

Attention of motorists is called by
the Lancaster Automobile Club to the
two compulsory motor vehicle inspec-
tion campaigns to be conducted by the
State next year. The first period will
begin New Year's Day and continue
until March 31. The second will be
from July 1 to September 30.
In the December issue of Lancaster
Motorist, the monthly magazine of the
Automobile Club, details of the inspec-
tion plans are given. Attention par-
ticularly is directed to the two arrest
periods provided for by law. “These
are periods in which those motor ve-
hicle owners who have failed to sub-
mit their cars for inspection, or who
have failed to make the adjustments or
corrections found necessary by the of-
ficial inspection stations will be liable
to arrest,” the Lancaster Motorist
points out. “Each arrest period begins
immediately after the close of each in-
spection period and will run for three
months. Thus it will be that as soon
as the one arrest period closes, the
next inspection begins.”
A check on the following equipment
will be made:—Registration plates,
horn, windshield wiper, steering, mir-
ror, brakes and lights. The condition
of tires under the classifications “poor,
fair or goed” also will be noted, but
correction of tire faults is not man-
datory in order to secure one of the
“inspected and approved” stickers.
Each owner will be required to, have
his motor vehicle inspected between
January 1 and March 31 and, if repairs
or adjustments are necessary, these
will have to be taken care of before
the official sticker is affixed. The stick-
er for the first 1932 inspection period
is keystone-shaped, and quite similar
to that used in 1930 except for color.
The new stickers are salmon-colored,
with black letters. No vehicle will be
permitted on the highway after March
31 without one of the new stickers.
Only official inspection stations will
be permitted to approve cars and issue
stickers. There will be about 75 such
stations in the county.

A lady in town says she’s been mar-

a quarrel yet.
I said: “How come?”
She replied: “If a difference of opin-

ways gives in immeditaely.”
I said: “And if he is right.”
She said: “Oh that hasn't happemed
so far.”
A certain man and his wife have
adopted the budget system. She man-

The plan works wonderfully. She

IME is money. Don’t fritter
it away. But you can coin
time into pure gold by de-
A voting it to making fritters
out of golden Hawaiian pine-
apple by either of the two following
recipes :
Louisiana “Beignets” (Fritters):
Beat two egg yolks thoroughly, add
one-half cup milk and two table-
spoons pineapple syrup. Sift togeth-
er one cup flour, one-fourth tea-
spoon salt and one teaspoon baking
powder, and beat in with one table-
spoon melted butter. Fold in two
stiffly-beaten egg whites. Drain the
slices from a No. 2% can of Ha-
waiian pineapple and dip in batter,
covering thoroughly; then fry in
deep fat, 370°. The slices may ‘be
cut in two, if desired, and two frit-
ters served to a person. This makes
eight whole-slice fritters. Serve with
the following
Sauce: Beat two egg yolks, add
one-fourth cup sugar and one-half
cup thin eream, and cook in double
boiler until creamy. Add one-half
cup pineapple syrup which has been
brought to boiling, and cook again
until creamy. Flavor with a few
grains of nutmeg.
Wholewheat Pineapple Fritters:
Beat one egg well, add one-half cup
milk, then the following dry ingre-
dients, sifted together: one cup
wholewheat flour, one teaspoon bak-
ing powder, one-fourth teaspoon salt
and one tablespoon sugar. Drain one
o-ounce can of Hawaiian pineapple
tidbits, and stir into the batter. Fry
in deep fat, 370°, taking up two tid-
bits with each spoonful of batter.
Makes twelve fritters. Serve with
the following
Sauce : Simmer gently together the
syrup from the can of tidbits, two
tablespoons sugar and four table-
spoons currant jelly until the jelly is
all meited and the mixture the con-
sistency of syrup.®
