WRITTEN BY DR.
B. 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.”

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.”

“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.

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.

who do not have protection such as
their organization is supposed to

“As a result of recent activity of
salesmen for some of these concerns
in Lancaster county hte Automobile
Club has had numerous inquiries
from motorists approached. Some
have called before paying over any

these, whether members of the Club
or not, we are giving assistance in
whatever way we can and are urg-

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,

Let us be not soloists, dominating

ber of an orchestra, content to bring

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

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?’—
