ORANGE- Twenty-five
Orange County 4-H members and
adults leaders got together recent-
ly to paint the picket fence at the
Heritage House Museum.
The project is one of the new
community service projects in
which the Orange County 4-H will
be conducting. Projects include a
food drive in December, planting
trees at Claiborne West Park, par-
ticipating in Operation Paint Brush
and hosting a First Sunday on the
River.
“Our goal is to install self-con-
fidence and pride in young people
by being actively involved in the
community,” said Michael Taylor,
County Extension Agent and 4-H
Program Coordinator.
“While 4-H roots are in agricul-
ture, there are a number of other
projects for young people who may
not have the resource to participate
in livestock projects," stressed
Taylor.
“The 4-H program is suited to
young people who reside in a city
apartment to the sons and
daughters of farmers and
ranchers,” added Taylor.
Those participating in the
Heritage House Museum Project
were Ron, Sue and Stephanie Par-
rish of Vidor; Sally, Lee, Beth and
Jason Hutchison and Andrew Wil-
liams of Mauriceville. Participating
from Orange were Kim and Linda
Jones, Crystal Ray, Charlote,
BEAUMONT-Baptist Hospi-
tal has added a work simulator to
the Physical Therapy Department.
This is an entire evaluation and
rehabilitation center in one com-
pact, computerized instrument and
is the only piece of equipment like
it in the area.
By duplicating ‘ real world’’ con-
ditions, the work simulator gives a
total system for the evaluation and
rehabilitation of injuries and dis-
abilities. It also records patient
progress in meaningful units of
measure, producing practical
answers on which therapists and
doctors can rely.
The work simulator consists of
two primary components mounted
on a pedestal base. One is a con-
trolled resistance assembly from
which a shaft protrudes. It can be
set in any of seven vertical-to-
horizontal positions and raised or
lowered to the desired height. By
slipping one of the many different
attachments into the shaft, the user
can simulate hundreds of “real
world” jobs or functions.
If a patient has been injured or
disabled on the job, the work
simulator can help get him back to
work quickly through conditioning
exercises, duplicating the move-
ments and stresses encountered in
ihe work place. By monitoring his
own performance, the patient can
“see” progress and is motivated to
continue improving. The work
emulator not only provides effec-
tive therapy, but can also give the
patient the psychological lift he or
she needs for speedy, successful
rehabilitation.
For workers who have ex-
perienced permanent disabilities,
the work simulator has been help-
ful in determining tool modifica-
tions and changes in work
procedures. This allows the injured
worker to perform his job duties
without pain or loss of efficiency.
The work simulator has also been
used to determine how to adapt
work conditions and living quarters
for the handicapped.
The work simulator has been
used by doctors and surgeons as an

About Exercise
by Judith Sheldon
EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO
BETTER HEALTH: Prescribed
exercise regimens continue to draw
good reviews for any number of
health problems, including diabetes
(an essential part of the total
treatment for this condition) and for
people with specific types of
cancers. AIDS patients have also
benefited from doctor-supervised
exercise routines
(Needless to say, no one should
start any exercise program without
checking with your doctor first This
is certainly true if you have a
physical problem, also true if you
believe you’re in the fittest condi-
tion. Your doctor may find some
thing that could cause trouble if you
started exercising before having a
checkup)
Among osteoarthritis patients,
exercise is beneficial in reducing the
tendency of joints to stiffen. The
condition itself leads to stiffening,
which leads to pain when the joint is
moved, which in turn prompts
people to resist movement and that
leads to more stiffness and more
pain. A well designed exercise prog
ram can help people with osteoar-
thritis maintain more flexibility.
There may be pain at first, but
eventually, the joint should be easier
(and less painful) to move.
Work closely with your doctor on
these exercises. (Note: chances are,
you'll be better off NOT indulging in
high impact routines such as tennis,
aerobic dance, or running.)

If you become disabled, will you
have enough income to provide
your family with the necessities
that make life worthwhile?
Most Americans do not. Yet, at age 25, averages show we
have one in three chances of becoming seriously disabled before
age 65 and at age 35 these odds increase to one in two.*
Be prepared should you be among the unlucky group. Let
your Woodmen of the World Representative help you get the
disability plan that fits your budget and needs.

The REEBt >K Aerobic Informa
tion Bureau advises that less is best
for optimum exercise benefits. The
idea is to get the gam without the
trauma Therefore, to avoid athletic
iryunes, keep the exercise* session to
30 minutes or less.
As for the pain, forget the adage,
no gam without pain Pain should
not be a partner in your fitness
program What it should be is a
signal to you to cheek that you're
doing the routine correctly and/or
you're not overdoing the exercise
If post-exercise pain persists,
consult your doctor or a rheumato-
logist This could be a symptom of a
soft tissue rheumatic condition
called fibromyalgia According to
Jeanne Melvin, director of the
Arthritis and Health Resource Cen
ter in Wellesley, Mass., this is often
misdiagnosed as an exercise related
ailment Symptoms include fatigue,
muscle soreness and stiffness. It
tends to occur in the 25-55 age
range, and more often in women.

aid in the diagnosis of various im-
pairments. It allows the patient to
duplicate the specific motions
which affect an injury and
reproduce reported symptoms. In-
formation gained in this manner
can better identify the problem
causes and aid in prescribing the
most effective treatment or
surgery.
The work simulator is Finding its
way into industrial and aerospace
research applications. It’s ability to
simulate the forces encountered by
humans, while performing a great
variety of tasks, has made the work
simultor especially useful in re-
search and experimentation.
For example, the U.S. Navy is
using the work simulator on its own
ship simulator, which duplicates
the motions of a ship in high seas.
Results of such tests will help in the
design of controls, handles and
other devices which sailors use to
carry out essential duties under dif-
ficult conditions.
Other researchers, contracted by
NASA, are using the work
simulator to test new designs of
gloves for astronauts. Their hope is
to find the best glove design that
will allow the necessary dexterity to
perform essential jobs during space
travel.__
