BRAIN
(Continued Prom Page One)
brain waves which scientists have
previously Identified from all parts
of the brain with pick-up instru-
ments placed outside the skull.
But when the farmer closes his
jaws the current jumps in volume.
The Jaw center of brain matter
suddenly develops a high electrical
potential.
No other movement causes the
slightest rise in potential or cur-
rent. neither bending moving legs
asms stretching hunching shoul-
ders arching the back nor any-
thing else the farmer can do
readily while his head is “wired.'*
No kind of thought imagination
or memory feat produces a current
] from this jaw center.
"Whenever he closed his jaws
j tightly.” Dr. Jacobson reported
"this particular spot in his brain
became very active but only so
long as he continued to keep them
tightly closed. When ne relaxed
his Jaws this brain spot quieted
down in its electrical activity—
that is it relaxed also.
"One thing shown by these
studies is that a man presumably
can by relaxing any particular
muscle effect a relaxation at least
in one section of his brain namely
the ‘center’ for that muscle."

PASSING SHOW
r(UR home make* a comfortable theatre
doesn't it? And it's nice to have the
passing show brought to year easy chair—a full
length fell time production too!
Maybe you're only interested in the “feature
pictures" the things big enough to make the
front page. Perhaps you like those “educational
shorts" the unbiased editorials or the home
making articles by well known writers. H may
be the “comedy" with Wash Tubbs in the lead-
ing role. The “serials" nay hold your atten-
tion the features and columnists. Bat alto-
gether say don't they make up the best show
in town?
And remember it's a DOUBLE FEATURE at-
traction—the ads are full of news too! The
newt about something new for the home some-
thing to wear or something economical to
serve. But it IS new and news when it appears
on the pages of The Brownsville Herald.
j
The passing show is an inexpensive program!
It's the best way to keep pace with the chang-
ing scene. And the best part of it is that
there's a complete change of program every
day!
