JUNE GRAND JURY SU B-
MITS REPORT TO COURT
FOLLOWING SESSIONS
Commending District Attorney May-
er and his staff “for the prosecution
of drunken drivers on the highways,”
and recommending that “justices of
the peace and aldermen be more dili-
gent in deciding the type of classes
that should be brought before the
grand jury.” The June grand jury
completed its work last Friday in sub-
mitting its report to the court. The
jury was headed by Robert V. Lutz of
Blacklick township.
The jury commended the county
commissioners and heads of county in-
stitutions for the “efficient manner” in
which they are conducted. The report
follows:
County Poor Farm—Thursday, June
8, 1939, the Grand Jury visited the
Cambria County Poor Farm and Home
for the Aged, where they found it to
be operating efficiently and eoconomi-
cally. We suggest the chairs in the la-
dies’ sun porch be replaced by new
cane-seated chairs. We recommend that
a portion of the ground be enclosed to
be devoted to outdoor recreation for
the female inmates of the institution. |
We also recommend that benches be
placed throughout the grounds for
greater comforts during the daytime
recreation. We commend Mr. and Mrs.
L. A. Zubrod for their efficiency in
conducting this institution.
“County Jail—Friday, June 9, 1939, ' §
we visited the county jail and found it |
to be operating in an efficient man-
ner. E. H. Knee is to be commended
on his capability as warden.
“County Juvenile Home—Friday, |
June 9th, 1939, the Grand Jury this
day visited the Children's Home of
Cambria County, which is undergoing
extensive repairs, which the grand
Jury feels will add greatly to the ef-
ficiency in the operation of this insti- |
tution and also increase the physical
and mental growth and development of
the children by the improved living
conditions. We commend Mrs. Emma
Daugherty and staff for the efficient
manner in which the home is being
conducted.
Court House—Friday, June 9, 1939,
the grand jury inspected the court
house of Cambria county and found
the various offices and rooms in ex-
cellent condition. We recommend the
seating arrangements in the grand jury |
room be investigated with a view to
reversing these arrangements so the
the glare from the windows does not
annoy the jury.
“We heartily commend the Cambria
county commissioners for ineir efrici-
ent and economical, managenient os i
various institutions under their supe
vision.
“We recommend that the justices of
the peace and the aldermen be more
diligent in deciding tne type OI Cascs
that should be brought before the
grand jury.
“We commend the office of the dis-
trict attorney and his staff for the
prosecution of drunken drivers on the
highway.”
SOME FACTS CONCERNING THE
AMOUNT OF WATER TO BE
CONSUMED GIVEN BY M. D.’S |
Humans are heavy drinkers. |
They average about six to eight
glasses of water a day. {
In the summer time they usually |
drink much more.
How much water to drink?
The sensation of thirst is the best
guide to the amount of water required
by the body.
Thirst is conditioned largely by the |
amount of salt consumed.
Forced drinking water is not a good
thing, unless there is fever or a def- | fi 8
inite suppression of thirst which may
be caused by a low salt diet.
Under normal conditions a fluid in- |
take of 2% or 3 quarts a day, includ- |
ing all beverages, coffee, tea, milk, so- |
da pop, etc. is quite adequate except
: |
in very warm weather. |
|
|
There is no harm in drinking more,
provided the circulation is normal and | fa
|
other conditions of the body are fav-|
orable.
There are many unsafe springs
wells and streams; persons who ven-
ture into the country, awary from their
safe sources of water, should exercise
great care.
Safe springs are so labelled by the
Pennsylvania State Department of |
Health—and all city water has been |
made safe.
Many believe that running water
purifies itself.
This is not true.
The faster water runs the less it
purifies itself, because, instead of per-
mitting suspended solids to settle it
carries them along.
Be sure of the source of the water
you drink and then let your thirst be
your guide.
So let’s imbibe in a glass or so.
Of that best of drinks--H3 0.
