Right in the middle of a deep and darksome
plot .the other night “Our Nell" was groping in-
nocently toward a bomb planted by the villain.
It would have blown her all over the barn.

shouts a ticket-holder from deep in the hayloft
converted into a balcony. The entire audience
took up the cry and saved the dear thing from
a fate at least equal to death.
We understand, that most of this summer we
are to enjoy plays dating back to the Napoleonic
era. A papa of one of the actors was in England
during the spring and what should be find but
a whole rack full of good drama which he could
buy for a shilling a copy from a sidewalk book
stand. He bought stacks.
There is none of this modern Philo Vance
stff in these plays, where you spend the whole
evening worrying about who the villain is. You
can spot him' the minute he puts foot on the
stage. His moustachios wave in the breeze, his
brows beetle and he sort of slinks. A person can
boo him right on the spot, but it is hardly con-
sidered cricket to let go at him before he has
had a chance to concoct his villainy.

I—HAY FEVER’S CAUSE
IIAY FEVER is. one of the more ommon dis-
’ll eases charged to allergy. Allergy may he
defined as that condition in which an indi-
. vidual reacts to contact with certain substances
in ways which are uncommon to the majority
of persons.
Thus, for example, the majority of individuals
can eat eggs or shell fish without suffering
hives, asthma, or eczema; while others will de-
velop one or another of these reactions even
when the amount of egg or shell fish consumed
is infinitesimal.
Such individuals are properly said to be al-
lergic. The allergic reactions may be brought
out by a wide variety of substances. Some in-
dividuals are allergic or hypersensitive to such
things as dusts, horse dander, feathers, foods,
drugs and face powders.
Hay fever sufferers are generally allergic
to one or more of the plant pollens. Pollen con-
sists of the male reproductive cells of plants.
The pollens which are air-borne, that is, those
light enough to float in the atmosphere, are the
ones most commonly responsible for hay fever.
Many pollens of trees, grasses and weeds are
air-borne.
Trees pollinate in the spring, grasses in the
mid-summer, and weeds in the late summer and
fall.
We do not know just why certain individuals
are over-sensitive to pollens and others are not.
We do know however that there is an hereditary
factor in allergy. The children of allergic par-
ents are more likely to develop allergic diseases s
than are the offspring of non-allergic parents.
One’s susceptibility to allergic disease must
not be considered a bar to marriage or parent-
hood, particularly since in recent years substan-
tial progress has been made in the treatment
of the allergic diseases.
The allergic state involves the entire consti-
tution of the affected individual though the
symptoms may particularly appear in the skin,
the mucous membranes or the respiratory tract.
It is comparatively easy to temporarily relieve
the symptoms of hay fever but the cure of the
condition is another matter. To affect a cure
the individual must be desensitized by a series
of injections containing extracts of the pollens
to which he is sensitive.

One of the interesting features
of the revival at the Grand Avenue
Baptist church is the junior choir
directed by Wayne Murphy. The
group is divided intb the reds and
the blues and much interest is
manifested by each side trying to
win more members than the oppos-
ing side. The junior choir rehearses
each morning at 9 o'clock, and Mr.
Murphy invites the boys and girls •
of Gainesville to come and meet
with them. He also urges that each
member be in his place at the eve-
ning services this evening to take
part in the singing.
Mr. Murphy is doing .splendid
work among the young people and
junior boys and girls along with
his capable directing of the music
at the regular services. His special
messages in song are a delight to
those who hear him, and his sin-
ere unassuming attitude is ah in-
spiration to all, said Rev. H. H.
McBride, pastor of the church.
WHEN LIGHTS FAIL
Keep some spare light bulbs in
your car. Lights burn out every
once in a while you know - and
more often if there is something
wrong with your electrical sys-
tem. So tarry a few “spares.”
Bulbs arejfighty cheap when com-
pared with doctor bills and hospital
charges. Remember, it is against
the law ini most states to drive with
a headlight missing. And of course
it always is a violation of the law
of safety. It only takes a minute
to change a light bulb. It’s a sim-
, pie . trick — if you've got th

Texas, over a long period of years, has

Most of the farmers depend on cotton as

THE PUBLIC’S response to the adoption of
a Code of Practice by the members of the
Brewers Foundation was prompt and
favorable.
Newspapers, social service groups and
thousands of individuals expressed great
satisfaction with the brewers’ determination
to conduct their business in accord with the
desires and conscience of the American public.
The Code pledges the brewers publicly to
“support the duly constituted authorities in
the elimination ofanti -social conditions
wherever they may surround the sale of
beer to the consumer.”

Better Than Congress
In some respects the summer theatre is even
better than congress. You KNOW the actors are
acting. In congress you are never quite sure.
More than that, you can boo the actors at our
favorite show, and we are told that even in se-
date Virginia a modified “boo" is permitted, al-
though it is more in the nature of a “boo-ah.”
That is a boo with a southern drawl.
Booing is never permitted in congress. Even
applause is denounced in the senate, which is no
end respectable. In the house they permit ap-
plause by hand-clapping. even encourage it, but
