APPEL, SECRETARY OF HEALTH “Many persons throughout the {| winter have been very shy of fresh air. With almost fanatical affection for super-heated and poorly ventilated rooms, they have practically turned their backs upon the great out-doors. Unquestion- ably, bodily resistance and tone have consequently suffered. Which, perhaps, is one of the reasons for the existance of that more or less general seasonal complaint com- monly called spring fever, as well as the prevalent ‘spring colds’ ”, said Dr. Theodore Appel, Secretary of health. “However, whether one notice- ably suffers from lassitude at this time of year or not, the fact re- mains that making the most of one’s opportunities with the balmy out-doors of the temperate months is one of the best health policies that can possibly be adopted. It really pays amazing dividends. “It may be trite to remark that many of the real blessings of humanity are free—and most cer- tainly this applies strikingly to outside air. Nevertheless, despite this fact, or perhaps because of it, thousands of persons consider it to be of no value and thus persist in the consistent policy of paying entrance fees to auditoriums where fresh air is measurably lack- ing, or under the caption of ‘Social Activities.” continue nightly to hug a bridge table, seen the dance hall, keep their noses in books or their ears too receptive to the radio’s siren call. “Of course indoor amusements, both of the commercial and per- sonal types, have a reasonable and entirely logical claim upon one's time and interest. It is only with the excessive employment of these diverting devices with which we have a just quarrel. “Indeed one is not required to become anti-social or to forego the wonderful recreations that present day science and ingenuity have de- veloped, in order to practice the daily habit of obtaining phpsical benefit from the outside atmos- phere. A little curtailment in pres- ent habits may be necessary but the main factor is a slight read- justment in the budgeting of time to permit a vigorous walk, a long stroll, or regular contact by other means with the great outdoors. “It follows that the indoor man or woman who deliberately and constantly refuse to fill the lungs with the invigorating and health- giving tonic of the open is doing the body a rank injustice from which he or she will sooner or later suffer if the practice is not revoked. “It must be realized that air one of the body's necessities. And no amount luxury, excitement or artificial pleasure can safely be substituted for it. Therefore, get the fresh air habit if you lack it. In this way only will you be able to experience the real and vital joy of being as fully alive as you were intended to be. “Habitually open your and your body to the open. is no better time to begin this practice than in the spring. A pleasant and exhilarating experi- ence awaits you.” an fresh basie of is heart There Self-Control Prominent Attribute of Socrates Socrates was a graduate of the school of hard knocks who learned to talk by talking and to preach what : he had himself practiced. { His two main tenets were self } control and self-knowledge, and here the stories about him are quite con- , Sistent. When he made friends with people of means he could enjoy their luxuries. He outdrank Aristophanes at Agatbon’s banquet, but generally he preferred not to drink too much lest he might think too little. He be- lieved in temperance, and when made symposiarch, or leader of the feast, he called for “little cups.” Good food he enjoyed, but he could endure the poor cooking of his wife. The same with clothes. During the campaign at Potidea, when others were clad in sheepskins and furs, he walked barefoot on the snow. But unlike many moral reformers Socrates did not insist that what he did was the only thing to do. If the Greeks had smoked tobacco he would not have belonged to the Anti-Nicotine league. No, his doc- trine of self-control seemed to be this: “I can do with, and I can do without, and I trust that you can do the same.” Or, as he put the matter when present at the fair: “How many things there are which 1 do not need.”—Wood- bridge Riley in “Men and Morais.” —- When it's job printing you need, anything from a card to a book, we are at your service. we A Gi ———— =n Advertise in The Bulletin.

AT te ) “Cover the Well Before the AWNING wells in back yards Y where children play are prac- tically extinct nowadays, but the old German proverb still holds good. Today few children are in danger of plunging headlong into un- covered wells through their parents’ carelessness, but in other ways they need just as much protection as ever. Children have little sense of dan- ger. The normal, sturdy boy does not fear the open well. Older and more experienced heads must protect bim by such a device as placing a lid over the opening and keeping it there. Many other dangers exist in child- hood, not so obvious as the open well, but for which effactive lids are at hand. For instance, no child needs to have diphtheria today. Smallpox is another equally preventable dan- ger. Scientific investigation tells us that tuberculosis usually begins in childhood, lies quiet and unobserved for years and then flares up in adult life as the recognized disease fatal to many. If we would cover the well as a protection against tuberculosis we must keep the child from becoming infected with tuberculosis germs; in- fection usually occurs from close contact with active cases. Even the ancients observed that ‘tuberculosis runs in families.” They thought it was inherited, but we know this is not true. Whenever it “runs in fami- lies” it is because the seeds may be readily implanted in the young body when it lives in close contact with a tuberculous person. It may be a fond mother, a loving father, a dear old grandmother afflicted with what she Child Falls In” —Old German Proverb calls “chronic bronchitis,” who neg- lects to cover the well. Another protective measure is to build up the child's resistance. In spite of all precautions, most persons sooner or later encounter the tubercle bacillus. But if the resistance of the body keeps the upper hand, the dis- ease does not develop into its serious form. This resistance can be in- creased to a great extent. Modern science now makes it possible to pro- tect chlidren against many resistance- weakening diseases. Modern training methods help to rear children to be healthy and strong. They must have plenty of sleep, well-regulated work and play, sunshine and good food at proper intervals. They must be trained to form health habits. Because the early stages of tuber- culosis are usually without signs or symptoms, the condition remains un- discovered in many cases until it is too late. Therefore, it is well to have the child examined frequently by a doctor. The tuberculin test and the X-ray help to discover early signs before severe damage has been done. In a few places in the United States large groups of school children have been examined for the early form of tuberculosis. About one out of every fifty appsrently well chil- dren were discovered to have it, and many more were classified as “sus- picious.” In all these cases steps were taken to prevent the further development of the disease-—in other words, these communities are cover- ing their wells. So—cover your well before your child falls in. VAIL MEDALS AWARDED 4 TELEPHONE WORKERS FOR OUTSTANDING DEEDS Three Women Among Those to Be Honored for Ini- tiative in Emergencies in Pennsylvania During Last Year, Leonard H. Kinnard Announces. Four telephone workers—three women in Eastern Pennsylvania and a DuBois man—are to receive the Theodore N. Vail medal for conspicu- ous acts of public service in emer- gencies during 1929, according to a recent announcement by Leonard H. Kinnard, president of the Bell Tele- phone Company of Pennsylvania. They are: Bertha G. Stern, com- mercial representative at Concord- ville, Delaware county; Vivian E. Quigley, operator, Bally, Berks county; Margaret J. Kane, night operator, Catasauqua, Northampton county, and Floyd K. Steiner, in- staller-repairman, DuBois. Vail medals are awarded annually to telephone employees in recognition of acts or services which illustrate the ideals of public service held by the late Theodore N. Vail, former presi- dent of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. Mrs. Stern is to receive the medal “for good judgment and initiative in an emergency resulting in the saving of property from loss by fire,” which threatened buildings on several farms in the vicinity of Concordville. Mi meda and in tive in an emergency on October 2, 1929, when a workman in a vard at Barto, a mile distant coal from Bally, was buried in a pit be- neath a car load of coal. She sum- moned help from a number of sources, including an electrician and a physi- cian, with the result that she is credited with having aided materially in saving the imperiled man’s life. Miss Kane's initiative in an emer- gency is credited with having pre- vented a train wreck April 5, 1929, when she was advised by telephone that the Catasauqua and Fogelsville Railroad Company’s bridge at Mick- ley’s was in danger of collapse. She reported the situation to the train- master and the Catasauqua police and notified a man living near the bridge. Through her efforts a freight train speeding toward the span was flagged in time to prevent heavy prop- erty damage and probable loss of life. Steiner, a volunteer member of the DuBois Fire Department, will receive the medal for saving the life of a man who was overcome by smoke during a fire last September 3.

A number of salesmen re- | presenting such concerns are now | operating in Lancaster city and | county, mostly in the rural sections, painting a vivid picture of service and protection which, they say, no be without. 11 car owner or operator can afford to “All of this sounds well until the | individual, having paid over the sum of $29.75, or a portion thereof, for a so-called service contract,” said S.| Edward Gable, president of the Au- to Club, “looks over the document delivered or, as in a number of cases, pays no attention to the con- | tract form until he figures in an ac- cident and needs legal service, or some other aid.

Some have called before paying over any money, while others have waited un- til they have signed a contract and paid the required sum. To all these, whether members of the Club or not, we are giving assistance in whatever way we can and are urg- ing them to warn other motorists. “Don’t let a salesman of whom you know nothing talk you into a deal with an organization of which you have never heard. When in doubt, call on the Automobile Club, your banker or insurance man, or some other organization or individ- ual who knows something about the activities of salesmen of this sort. Better investigate first than be sorry afterwards.” > Strand of Hemp A South American woman living in Paris sued a furniture mover for $4,000 alleging that while transferring her household goods he lost a bit of a hangman’s noose which she esteems as a bringer of good lyck. The super- stition is ancient. When Haman was hanged on the gallows he built for Mordecai it is likely that there was rivalry among Ahasuerus’ people for a strand of the rope Queen Esther diverted from its original purpose. Gilderoy was hanged on a gallows tree so high that his kite was immortalized in a saying which endures to this day, and the hemp must have been in de- mand.—New York Sun, Each in His Own Place Let us be not soloists, dominating the whole place, but each one a mem- ber of an orchestra, content to bring all that we have and contribute it in music, while we ourselves for the mo- ment keep our personality in shadow and subjection, that there may come to this world a greater harmony, a greater symmetry, a more perfect ad- justment of conflicting loyalties, so that we may reach the highest ambi- tion of all, which is, that we may have a name at which men and women, when they hear it, will smile gladly and be proud to claim it as the name of the Friend.—Rosslyn Mitchell. Always Merry and Bright A certain club had replaced its fa- miliar black-coated servitors with voung, and sometimes pretty, wait- resses. One of the old die-hard mem- bers who had strongly opposed the idea dropped in to lunch one day. “How's the duck today?” he growled, glowering at the girl who came to serve him. “Oh, I'm all right,” said the wair- ress, perkily. “How are you, sir?’— 3rooklyn Eagle.
