Toxot Wages War On
Venereal Diseases
Texas' private war on venereal
disease!! amonir indigent* ia pre-
ceding in wholesale fashion, with
over 95,000 patients having: passed
through State Health Department
rapid treatment centers since the
first center was opened in 1943.
This was the word from State
Health Officer Geo. W. Cox, who
Thursday described the 95,000 as
“unlucky enough to have1" VD, but
lucky enough to have gutten at-
tention.”
“Untended syphilis can cause
heart disease, mental illness, blind-
ness, and other severe physical
disabilities,” the health official
asserted. He asked potntedly, “See

Two stale supported rapid treat-
ment centers—Rocky Mount Hos-
pital in OVerton, and the Mission
Medical Center in San Antonio—
are maintained by the State Health
Department for handling caaes of
venereal diseases in people unable
to pay for private care, Cox aaid.
Gonorrhea, is handled in the VD
clinics of local health unita, rather
than sending the indigent* to the
RTC’s, Cox said.
“State Health Department pol-
icy calls for local health unit VD
clinics as diagnostic centers," he
said. “However,a good many rapid
treatment center patients are re-
ferred there by private phyai-
cians.”
Rapid treatment center person-
nel ' conduct putient education via
conferences pamphlets, and motion
pictures, which is, Cox said, “one
of our most valuable educational
processes.”
“We learned long ago that edu-
cating, patients while they are un-
dergoing treatment has more re-
tentive value than any other device
we could use.’’
LEGAL NOTICE
LIGHTING HINTS
FOR THE HOME
Here are some hints on home
lighting that you may want to con-
sider in connection with the re-
decorating of the home. Miss Lu-
cile King, County Home Demon-
stration Agent says the shifts to
the deep shades .now in vogue for
wall paper, interior paint, curtains
and other furnishings may require
more lamps or higher-wattage
bulbs for adequate illumination.
The darker colors absorb light,
she says and the lighter colors
reflect it. She points out that good
lighting must satisfy four major
requirements, there must be plenty
of light for adequate seeing, more
light for the tedious tasks, there
should be no glare and this calls
for correctly designed lamps and
fixtures. Light must be properly
distributed and that means placing
lamps and fixtures where they'll
rfo~the most £sod and lastly the
light must be property directed.
This means directing the light so
there is an absence of shadows on
the visual tasks being performed.
- -Shu nays using lamps with a dif-
"fuxlug bowl within the shade wQL
improve the quality of light and
that the shade linings should be
light in color.
Penny for .penny, potatoes have
snore energy giving . value than
any other vegetable. When eaten
daily, potatoes supply as much as
one-fourth of the vitamin C quota
as wall as starch and seme ol the
important minerals.
