During that week sales through- out the state amounted to $1,324,- 447 in Series E bonds, bringing the total since the start of the drive to $11,182,323, or 65 per cent of the state quota of $17,200,000. In his communication to Mr. Carlson, Odlin asked for additional effort for the balance of the drive. While four eastern Washington counties and four western Wash- ington counties have exceeded the quotas assigned them, it is still "nip and tuck" as to whether th[ state will make its quota. "With a continuation of the same fine support from all adver- tising media and publicity sources, together with a continuation of the hard work being donated by .&lt;mr large volunteer organization, I an] sure we again will achieve our objective," Odlin added.

Doctors Offer Help Overweight frequently is the cause of many other pilysieal grlewtnces. The staffs of the schools of medicine, dentistry and nursing at the University of Washington have prepared for today's Jourmtl an article on obesity. "Obesity" means just too much fat. Obesity is perhaps the most common of all chronic conditions to which human beings are sub- ject. Its causes and the various ways of correcting the condition are well known in most iflstanees. In spite of this knowledge its inci- dence continues to be high. Many studies reveal the fact that high blood pressure, diabetes, degenerative arthritis, hardening of the arteries, gall stones, gout and numerous other conditions are much more common in over- weight individuals than in those of normal or substandard weight. Conditions, such as heart di- sease, are invariably aggravated in l overweight individuals. Actually life expectancy is definitely le's for obese groups than for aver- age weight groups. Fat people like to eat. All cases of obesity are due to an intake of food in excess of that needed to maintain the body in a state of metabolic equilibrium. Many obese people claim that they eat no more than their thinner friends. How- ever, watch them and see what they eat as well as the amount they stow away. Heredity factors play a part in furnishing the framework for ex- cessive weight, but family eating habits initiated in early life are more important in establishing familial obesity. During recent years it has been learned that definite neurotic traits are evident in most people with marked obesity. Many such individuals experience over-eatingl as a result of overstress on the value of food or as a means o self-gratification. In others being overweight has compensation in helping to avoid unpleasant tasks. Obese individuals are apt to shun exercise. People formerly liked to blame their obesity on abnormalities of the glands of internal secretion. There are a few disorders of he functions of these glands associat- cd with overweight but they ac- count for only a very small num- ber of the actual cases of obesity. As far as treatment is con- cerned oI, ese Individuals are apt to be their own worst enemies° They art, frequently inclined to be antagonistic towards accept- ing the idea that the fault lies within themselves rather than in some "metabolic disorder" or in their "glands." Despite their professed good in- tentions they frequently do not possess the will power to follow the regime necessary to restore them to a normal weight. Over- $15.95 9L5 SENSATIONAL PRICES coming obesity is a genuine chal- lenge to the sincerity of the in- dividual's desire to lose weight. Tim most important factor in treating obesity is restriction of diet. Any physician can furnish dietary instructions which, if fol- lowed carefully, will result in a gradual, safe loss of weight. The diet must contain adequate amounts of certain essential fac- tors such as vitamins. Reasonable exercise is helpful but overexercis- ing tends to increase appetite and counteracts the value of a dietary regime by stimulating a desire for more food. In the minds of many people there should be a miracle drug that will bring about redaction without dietary effort. As far as drugs are concerned, there is no magic pill that can or will safely reduce anyone. Many so-called reducing drugs are advertised. Fortunes have I)een made through such means. Any success accompanying their use actually results from strict adherence to the dietary regime that is also advised during the administration of such remedies. There is no magic short-cut to successfully overcoming obesity. Results depend first of all on whether the individual sincerely wants to reduce and secondly on strict adherence to a dietary re- gime that makes weight reduc- tion possible. HARSTINE FOLKS DELAYED ON TRIP BY AUTO WRECK A trip to San Francisco which Mabel Harriman, Clyde and teens Otterstadt and children started last Wednesday morning ended very abruptly in Shelton when their car was involved in a wreck. No one was hurt and they started off once more Saturday morning, this time by train.

This week end was no ex- ception and the cars of the "old timers" seemed to bc very much in the minority. An interesting caller on the Island Sunday was a Mr. Lane of California. Mr. Lane was trying to find his old home, which he had left as a child in 1908.

Huntington Platted Early Longview Site, Late in the 'ntmmer of 1849 Hhrry Darby Huntington and his family settled on a donation land claim near the confluence of the Cowlitz and Cohunbia Rivers.
