Your Health,
The First Concern.

In one large industrial concern,’
where several hundred people were
examined under the system of Life
Extension Institute, the management
said that the whole procedure was
justified by the rescue of one individ- |
ual from a state of mental and phys-
ical depression into which he had |
gradually drifted without there being |
any underlying important physical de- |
fect. This man was discovered to be
healthy. He had absolutely no ex-|
cuse for being otherwise. The re- |
sult was a benefit not only to that.
one man, but to the whole office. |
Overwork, either physical or men-
tal, sometimes causes a breakdown |
in health. But in the vast majority |
of cases where overwork seems to be |
the cause, there is some underlying !
physical condition which is actually |
responsible. A thorough examination |
will reveal this condition, if it exists, !
and the person will not be compelled |
to give up the inestimable blessing of |
work. |
Many of the diseases which cause |
death at thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, and |
even later, are preventable, or at
least can be deferred. Comparatively |
few diseases come like a clap of |
thunder out of a clear sky. The ap-,
proach of the storm is generally her- |
alded in various ways. And in the
case of these physical storms, they
can often be averted by taking ad-!
vance measures. Don’t wait for the |
storm to break. Don’t delay until}
the wreck is just ahead. Have a!
search made now for danger signals, |
or even for small caution signals. |
Don’t deride these signals as being |
of no consequence. Even the more
serious chronic diseases of degenera- |
tion can be held in check and need
not condemn you to an early death if |
you will get yourself carefully ex-
amined at regular intervals, correct
our defects and adjust your living
abits in acordance with your physi-
cal equipment.
HEALTH HINTS.
Lack of vigorous outdoor cxercise,
insufficient intake of water, the eat-
ing of soft cooked foods, a concen-
trated meat diet, lack of cellulose or
waste material in the diet, and ne- |
glect of the bowel function, are the
chief causes of constipation.
The right amount of water taken
at proper times is one of the greatest
preventives of constipation. Excess |
of water should not be drunk by the
feeble or by those suffering from!
heart trouble or dropsy. But water
taken rather freely when the stom- |
ach contains no food, especially be-'
fore breakfast, is essential for good
digestive functioning. |
There is no more reason why a man |
should go to bed with his business:
clothes on. There are people who
immediately start to think out knotty
problems as soon as their heads
strike the pillow. |
As a rule light sleepers should
avoid drinking water or other fluids
several hours before retiring in order |
that mesages from the bladder may |
not prove disturbing. Tea and
coffee should be left alone by restless
sleepers; tobacco is also harmful.
The reading of exciting, morbid
books, or the witnessing of morbid,
sensational plays or moving pictures,
should be avoided. Pleasing, gentle,
hopeful thoughts and a serene men- !
tal atmosphere should be cultivated,
anger and irritation avoided. Fresh
air in the bedroom is most important.
Deep breathing is also helpful. :
There are few people in this civil-
ized age who are at all times free
from symptoms of neurasthenia. To
prevent the occurrense and especially
the recurrence of such states is just
as much a part of preventive medi- |

Ford owners
TO THE half-million men
and women who have re-
ceived new Fords in the last
eleven months, there is no
need to dwell on the per-
formance of the car.
You have tested its speed
on the open road. In traffic
you have noted its quick ac-
celeration and the safety of
its brakes. You know how
it climbs the hills. On long
trips and over rough
stretches you have come to
appreciate its easy - riding
comfort. Continuous driv-
ing has proved its economy
of operation and low cost
of up-keep.
This is an invitation to
you to take full advantage
of the service facilities of
the Ford dealer organiza-
tion so that you may con-
tinue to enjoy many thou-
sands of miles of carefree,
economical motoring.
The point is this. You
have a great car in the new
Ford. It is simple in design,
constructed of the best ma-
terials and machined with
unusual! accuracy. It is so
well-made, in fact,
that it requires sur-
prisingly little
RADIO BEACONS WILL
MAKE FLYING SAFER.
Confidence that the radio beacon
will inaugurate an epoch of safe and
regular flying by aircraft is express-
ed in a research narrative prepared
for the Engineering Foundation by
the United States Bureau of Stand-
ards.
Aeronautical engineers at the gov-
ernment’s scientific laboratory .ex-
pressed the belief that at last science
has solved the problem of fog flying
and landing that within a few years
sufficient aids to navigation will have
been established on the recognized
commercial airways to end the prob-
ability of flyers getting lost.
“With the beacon stations in ope-
ration throughout the country, air-
planes in flight will always have bea-
con signals available to keep them
constantly informed as to their loca-
tions,” said the narrative. “Indeed,
when a pilot leaves his regular course,
either accidentally or to avoid a
stormy area, the radio shows him the
way back.”
The bureau pointed out that it is

regulated. It is the same with the
human body.
Let meal time be a time of good
cheer. It is no time to discuss trou-
bles. Do not worry about your food,
or anything else. Bring no grouch to
the dinner table.
Grey hair is caused by loss of pig-
ment and the presence of air bubbles
that occupy spaces in the hair. There
is no cure; the best preventive is gen-
eral care of the scalp as above out-
lined and general personal hygiene.
Heredity is a factor in both baldness
and gray hair.
If you have a skin eruption “and
simple cleaniness and hygiene do not |
cure it, get yourself examined, but
do not experiment with remedies that
may do more harm than good. Each
case must be judged on its merits
and there is no magic remedy, in-
ternal or external, that will cure all
skin affections.
For average people one or two
lasses of water at meals is a health-
practice. If only one glass is tak-
en at meals, one should be taken be-
tween meals, so that about six glasses
are taken daily as an average.—From

is traveling because the wind may
slow him down or speed him up.
What ‘instrument flying’ has lacked
is supplied by the radio beacon.
“The beacon system will render its
greatest service on fixed commercial
airways. With the radio beacon made
practical and dependable, air route
operations enter into a new era of
regularity and safety. Most trips
formerly omitted, or undertaken only
at a great risk, can be confidently
made.
“Occasional fog over the landing
field itself is the chief remaining ob-
stacle.”
The commerce department expects
to install the new radio aids during
the next two years. Required equip-
ment on airplanes is reduced to a
short pole antenna and a receiving
set weighing a few pounds. All of
the expensive and powerful apparat-
us necess is on the ground, main-
tained by the government.
The radio beacons operate in the
frequency band 285 to 315 kilocycles,
and the telephone stations in the band
816 to 350 kilocycles. These were
allocated to air service by the 1927
| International Radio Convention. For
the present the beacons are adjusted
| to the frequency of 290 kilocycles, and
attention. Yet that doesn’t
mean it should be neglected.
Like every other fine piece
of machinery, it will serve
you better and longer if
given proper care.
One of the best ways to
do this is to take your car
to the Ford dealer every 500
miles for oiling and greas-
ing and a checking-up of
the little things that have
such a great bearing on long
life and continuously good
performance.
Such an inspection may
mean a great deal to your
car. To you it means thou-
sands npon thousands of
miles of motoring without
a care—without ever lifting
the hood.
Ford dealers everywhere
have been specially trained
and equipped to service the
new Ford. You will find
them prompt and reliable
in their work, fair in their
charges, and sincerely eager
to help you get the greatest
possible use from your car
for the longest period at a
minimum of trouble and
expense. That is the
true meaning of
Ford Service.

Sis telephone stations to 333 kilocy-
cles.
“The directive radio beacon is a
special kind of radio station, usually
located at an airport, just off the
landing field,” the bureau explained.
“Instead of having a single antenna
like an ordinary radio station, it has’
two loop antennas at an angle with
each other. :
“Bach emits a set of waves which
is directive, i. e., it is stronger in one
direction than in others. When an
airplane flies along the two beams of
radio waves, it receives signals of
equal intensity from the two. If
the plane gets off this line, it receives
stronger signals from one than the
other. ;
“The indicator on the airplane
shows when the signals are received
with equal intensity, by means of two
vibrating reeds tuned to different
modulating frequencies used on the

nal is received the two reeds vibrate. |
two antennas.
The tips of these reeds are white in
a dark background so that when vi-
brating they appear as vertical white
lines.
“The yeed on the pilot's right is |
tuned to a frequency of 65 cycles, and
the one on the left to 85 cycles.
is only necessary for the pilot to
watch the lines. If they are equal
in length, he is on his correct course.
If the one on his right becomes long- |
er, the airplane has drifted to the
right and if it drifts off the course
to the left the left line becomes long-
er.”
It was stated that successful flights
have been made up to 135 miles in
fog and over hazardous mountain ter-
rain. This distance is more than
enough to demonstrate the success of
the system, as it is contemplated that
beacon stations will be placed not ov-
er 200 miles apart with a straight
airway betwen them. They will be
supplemented by small marker bea-
cons at intervals. A characteristic
signal from a marker will show on
the visual indicator aboard the air-
plane what point is being flown over.

at the Pennsylvania State College.
To study two-cycle engines with the |

courses in internal combustion en-
gines.
Mr. Shamel has been engaged in

view than the other.
A new Reboux model is of very
supple, thin felt, with a crown shirred
at the center-front and caught up ina
curve which leaves the left eyebrow
and the right ear quite uncovered.

Cloche which arch well up over the
forehead and descend well to the back
are another winter feature shape.
