What we do not consider a ser- ious matter is the number of cases of the common cold. flu. and other infections of the nose, throat. oar, bronchial tubes and lungs. These diseases are the most important cause of absenteeism, not only among industrial workers but in ulficcs and sohoolrooms.

As these diseases start in biic nose and throat. sneezing and cough- ing are the means by which thﬁ are transmitted to others. if the organisms which are coughed frcm

This reclining position helps to relieve the congestion of blood in you: underpinnings. Next step is to plunge feet into a bd'il‘1 of warm water and let them soak for 15 minutes. Then dry thorough- ly and smooth away any roughened skin with pumice stone. Rub on a soothing foot cream. applying it with a massaging motion. Good technique for massage is to place both hands with fingertips touch- ing under the ball of the foot. Then pull hands upwards and back- wards toward the heel and up tne ankle, twisting hands in a spiral motion.

When you're finished. tissue off the cream and treat your feet to a dusting of! powder. Feet that bend to persrplre can be kept drier and more comfortable if powder is sprinkled on bare feet and again

1n "Occupational Medicine," Chic- ago, Dr. Anna M. Baetjer discusses methods of preventing the spread of infection among workers. Paper handkcrcihiefs may be supplied to employees to be used when cough- ing. sneezing. or blowing the nosc and then be placed immediately into receptacles. 'l‘o prevent drop- let. infection (these droplets some- t"mes remain in the air for nearly half a minute). a distance of a few feet should be allowed between workers who face one another. Oil- ing of floors is of value in prevent- ing organisms which settle to the floor from rising again in the form oi’ dust. Proper sanitation in the preparation and serving of food is esential.

Q. Is it ever pemisisible to use the knife to convey any kind of food to the mouth?

Ellen ’s Diary

By an final Farmer's Wife

Naturally, James was‘ very well pleased with tho favorable report which Link in his coming had brought to us at Alderlea yaxer- day of the pigs‘ early sale. Young ones from a respected matron of ours these had been and James ‘a always interested to hear how such stock sold from this farm nave done. And never in any sale withholds his blessing. "You know. Ellen" he will say of some pur- chaser when the latter is on his way down the driveway, especially if it be some new beginner to farming "I do hope he will have good luck with his purchase." And sometimes there is, eventually. a good report, but again when the faces take a delight in baffling the best efforts of humans, the news is contrary and not at all so heart- warming to James and me. But. yesterday he—and I too, smiled. “Yes" Link said "they were selects -so I got all that was in them" and then turning to me "she had great luck this year with her chic- kens-ali made first grade. Weren't old neither but came along like a storm. Only 10st two of them. Wouldn't-have lost them, only a blasted old cat got them. And the puliets are laying -been laying now for a couple of months." l nodded at the same time remem- bering how that very morning hearing a promising cackle from the direction of our poultryhouse, I had hurried thither in hopes of gathering at least one fresh egg for James‘ breakfast to find our feath- ered friends engaged only in gos- sipingi"

The Stars Say--

By Genevieve Kemblo

For Friday, January 18

WHILE the prospects are en- couraging for the successful launch- ing of ambitious projects, with the recognition and definite support of those in influential positions, yet a show of erratic, extravagant and wild ideas. or excessive zeal. might swerve this cooperation. Any strange conduct. forced plans. or intemperate words or ‘deeds might alienate such interest.

If It Ia Your Birthday

Those wlhose birthday it is might upset the applecart on really con- structive propositions, by a reck- less, impulsive and extravagant mode of conduct, in word. acts, and other erratic or irresponsible con- duct, when friendly interests stand by for concrete assistance and ear- nest recognition. Curb all quick im- pulses or emotional urges to force issues. by extravagant gestures or excessive hopes. A child born on this day while attracting support for its unique or ambitious plans and ideas. is likely to have all hopes blow up through erratic or extravagant behavior.
