@ ONE little time ago the Rev. DR..
James E. Norcross of Pittsburgh
suggested that the women Of his
congregation might often find 1t ad-
vantageous to wear trousers in their
homes. Dr. Norcross said:
The women saw in San Fran.

sensibly than their Occidental sisters.
Their costumes were something very
like trousers. When God gave folks
legs he intended them for use. and
II all women adopted the masculine
attire used by their sisters in noun.

A number of women are not only
following the Doctors advice in wenr.

one of sanitation. Certainly this is

taught by visiting nurses connected
with the department of childhygiene.
There is undoubtedlya crying need
for free dental institutions in all
cities. where children may have their
mouths well attended, but this has
not been reached yet except in Bos.
ton, where a,free dental clinic. known
as the Forsyth Memorial. has been
established for poor children.
Importance of Mouth Hygiene.
Speaking Of this need DR.. Alfred R.
Starr. dean of the New York College
OF Dentistry. says:
Some Improvement has been
made in the matter of mouth hygiene
through the efforts of educational
boards of various cities to instruct
children in regard to the proper care
of the mouth. but this matter really
belongs to the health boards and
should be taken care of by a ma.
tional board of health under direc-
ton and supervision of the national
government.
We all greatly deplore the enor.

ing on in Europe. but we overlook
the great sacrifice of life which is
needlessly taking place in our cities.
These lives are being lost either
through ignorance or lack of means.
Because people do not keep their
mouths in sanitary condition, there
is need for propaganda of education

II physicians and the medical fra.
ternity at large have come TO realize
that the beard of doctor is danger.
Gus and very likely a germ carrier,
why should 1t not he the same in the
case of woman nurse with her long

There are several women doctors
who wear their hair short. practice

tors and painters. They say that
short hair is more convenient and a
time saver. and much easier to keep
in good condition.
But these are things that are left
more or less to the individual to
decide. There are public reforms
that are just as important, If not
more so.
Banishinz Public Drinking Cup.
One or the most important cam.
paigns is the one that is being waged
against the old.time drinking foun.

Excellent work also is being done
in carrying instructions into the con.

Trousers and MILDLY Blouses Are Being Widely
Adopted by Women Houseworkers as More San

This question OF
sanitation is being
carried into the
schools and into
the homes by the
health department.
The hundreds of
milk stations es-
tablished in the
different cities are
also doing duty as
schools of instruc-
ton for mothers
and children. The

Teaching Sanitation in the Home.
"A campaign has been made re-
garding soda water fountains, which
has resulted in the installation of
machines and hot water for tho
washing of glasses after each time
they are used. Such machines should
be in every store in the United
States where soda water is sold.
