This is how warm
a new Texaco furnace
will make you feel.
Warm as toast. That's because a new Texaco forced
air furnace is designed to ensure the complete
combustion of every last drop of oil. And oil means the
most heat for the least money. It's also available on

Smoking and
weight gain
Does qultting smoking trigger
weight gain? 1V1illions of men and
women are finding out, their own
answers. Millions more are
waiting in the wings.
Weight gain is a complicated,
individua. 1 business. But a
National Health Survey shows
that, in general, men gain weight
progressively until the age of 45.
From 45 to 65, there is little
change. Then at age 65, some
weight gain begins again.
For women, the picture is
different, rounder. They gain
weight progressively at each age
bracket until the age of '75.Keep-
ing a svelte figure isn't, easy.
What happens when both sexes
quit smoking? The National
Clearinghouse for Smoking and
Health tried to find out in two
national surveys, which were four
years apart. In their sample of
several thousand people, they
found that among men aged 21
to 34, there was very little dif-
ference in weight gain between
ex-smokers and smokers. From
35 to 54, ex-smokers seem to gain
more weight than smokers. After
that, there is no difference
between the two groups.
For women, between the ages
of 21 and 34, there is no apprec-
iable weight gain among ex-smo-
kers. From 35 to 44, there is
some weight gain among ex-
smokers. But from 45 on, there
is very little difference between
the two groups.
Studies show that people who
gain weight after they quit smok-
ing later lose those extra pounds.
Bufrweight gain is not inevit-
able, by any means. In fact, one
out of every four ex-smokers
lost weight; some of them lost
large amounts. Once-people de-
cide to, master some part of
their lives, such as quitting
smoking, they often take control
of other aspects, such as eat-
ing properly and exercising
enough. '
Christmas Seals help point out
the advantages of quitting smok-
ing. They also continue the fight
against emphysema, TB, and air
pollution. Answer your Christ-
mas Seal letter right away. It's
a matter of life and breath.
I remember
From Mrs. Ruth Sander, Tel-
ford, Pa: I remember those
horse and buggy, days, and how
we enjoyed those winter sleight
rides. I still miss hearing those
sleigh bells!, '
On the farms before the
butter, cottage cheese, cup
creameries, folks made their own
cheese, etc. Farm products were
taken to town by horse and market
wagon. Eggs sold for 10 cents
a dozen. When bakers began rural
deliveries, bread sold for the low
price of seven loaves for 25 cents.
People practically lived off farm
produce: fruits canned and dried,
home made. apple butter, and
home-canned pork .and beef.
Washing machines were handop-
erated and there were no tele-
phones or mail carriers. Postage
on letters was 2 cents and cards
were 1 cent.
The one-room school house
was another feature of those
days. I walked a mile to and
from school for eight years.
With all our present day pro- JAMESWAY
gress, are folks any happier?
