familiarity with a special Instrument

During the week every man In the
class has his special practice IN these
matters. In the second week the SUD
iects are measurement of horsepower
lining up Of engines, piston waive set
ling and the condenser and air pump.
The third week the laboratory SUP
iects are the salinometer, duplex pump

in the last week there are exercises
with injectors, turbinedriven pumps,
and an afternoon spent In a large sta-
tionary power house.
Special Courses for Special Work.
This is the course at Massachusetts
Tech" 1t may vary at other Schools
but the underlying principles OF IN
struction are the same. In the school
at Philadelphia, the largest In attend
ance, now holding it's sessions IN the
Bourse building with class well over
a hundred, special attention is given
to refrigerating machinery.
1t is part of the plan of the board to
train men in knowledge Of every
kind of special equipment carried IN
the mechanical outfit of modern ship.
Turbine ships, for example, must
have specially trained engineers. The
latest development in these wonder
machines for driving ships are In the
geared turbine, a complicated and high
ly delicate piece of mechanism.
To provide proper proportion Of
turbine engineers to meet coming de-
mands the shipping board has sent
picked men to the works where most
Of its turbines are made, with instruc-
tons that the men grow up with their
engines" An engineer so instructed Is
supposed to watch his engine grow
from the castings to its final assem-
bling in the shop, and then follow 1t
aboard ship, superintend its erection
there and run it when finally the ship
Is ready for service.
The same idea of special instruction
Is applied in the case of watertube
boilers, the engineers who are to han.
die them being given special course
In the works where the boilers are
made.
One of the most recent developments
in the driving machinery of ships be-
ing the so-called Diesel type Of crude
oil engine, the shipping board is now
planning to instruct Diesel engineers
In addition to those trained to handle
the ordinary types of engine.
In order to reach the men 1t wishes
for training, the shipping board re
cruiting service employs officials In
various parts of the country known as
section Chiefs" who supply informa
ton to constantly growing number
of applicants. Much of this is contained
in a pamphlet entitled How to Be
come an officer in the Merchant Ma
rine." National headquarters of the
recruiting service Is at the custom
house, Boston.

imperative That Physicians and
Nurses Not Be Summoned
Unless Necessary.
PROPER CARE OF PATIENTS
SURGEON General Blue Tells What to
Do for Persons Sick With Spanish
lnfluenza-Use of Gauze
Masks Recommended.

Washington-In an effort to reduce
unnecessary calls on the Over-WOrked
physicians throughout the country be-
cause of the present epidemic OF in
1uenza, Surgeon General Blue of the
United States public health service
calls upon the people OF the country TO
learn something about the home care
of patients ill with influenza. Ply
sicians everywhere have complained
about the large number of unnecessary
calls they have had to make because
Of the inability of many people to dis
tinguish between the cases requiring
expert medical care and those which
could readily be cared for without
physician. With influenza continuing
to spread in many parts of the coun-
try, and with an acute shortage OF doc
tors and nurses everywhere, every I'M
necessary call on either physicians or
nurses makes it so much harder to
meet the urgent needs of the patients
who are seriously i'll.
Present Generation Spoiled.
"The present generation" said the
surgeon general, has been spoiled by
having had expert medical and nursing
care readily available. 1t was not so
! in the days of our grandmOthers, when
every good housewife was expected to
know good deal about the care of the
| sick.
"Every person who feels sick and
appears to be developing an attack
of influenza should at once be put to
bed in well-ventilated room. If his
bowels have moved regularly, it is not
necessary. to give a physic; where a
physc is needed, dose Of castor oil
or Rochelle salts should be given.
'"The room should be cleared Of all
unnecessary furniture, bric-a-brac, and
rugs. wash basin, pitcher, and slop
bowl, soap and towel should be at
hand, preferably in the room or just
outside the door.
IF the patient is feverish a doctor
should be called, and this should be
done in any case if the patient appears
very sick, or coughs up pinkish (bloOd-
staineD sputum, or breathes rapidly
and painfully.
| Most Of the patients cough up con-
siderable mucus; in some, there is
much mucus discharged from the nose
and throat. This material should not
be collected in handkerchiefs, but
rather in bits of old rags, or toilet pa.
per, or on paper napkins. AS soon as
used, these rags or papers should be
placed in a paper bag kept beside the
bed, Pocket handkerchiefs are out of
place in the sick room and should not
be used by patients. The rags or pa
pers in the paper bag should be burned.
"The patients will not be hungry,
and the diet should therefore be light.
Milk, a soft-boiled egg some toast or
crackers bit of jelly or jam, stewed
fruit, sorae cooked cereal like oatmeal,
hominy or rice-these will suffice in
most cases.

Comfort Of Patient.

THE comfort of the patient depends
on number of little things, and these
should not be overlooked. Among
these may be mentioned well-venti-
lated room; thoroughly clean bed
with fresh, smooth sheets and pillow
cases; quiet, So that refreshing sleep
may be had; cool drinking water con-
Vehlently placed; a cool compress to
the forehead if there is headache. .
Keeping the patients hands and face
clean, and the hair combed keeping
MS mouth clean, preferably with some
pleasant mouth wash; letting the pa

but not annoying him with too much
fusslng; giving the patient plenty of
opportunity to rest and sleep.
1T is advisable to give the sick room
GOOD airing several times day.

equally important to consider the per-
son who Is caring for him. 1t is i'm
portant to remember that the disease
IS spread by breathing germ-laden mat-
ter sprayed into the air by the patient
IN coughing or even in ordinary breath
ing. The attendant should therefore
wear gauze mask over her mouth

EDGE IN TRAIL
Of COAL DEALERS
Takes Action Against Whole
saIerS Who Attempt to
ThWart State Laws.
Bv speciaI Correspondent.


TRENTON, April 15:-Governor
Edge, as the result of the informa-
ton made before him by Prosecutor
Oscar B. Redrow, of Gloucester
county, has taken prompt action TO
prevent wholesale coal dealers from
thwarting the purpose of NeY Jer-
sey's war measure known as Chapter
So of the Laws of 1918, which per
mits municipalities of the state to buy
and distribute food and fuel in emer-
gencies. The information given the
executive by the Gloucester county
official indicates an unpauiotic at
tempt to nullify this legislation in the
interest of private business. The evi-
dence purports to show that the bor-
ough of Wenonah, in Gloucester
county, which took advantage of the
state law, has failed to secure coal be-
cause of an attempt on the part Of
wholesale coal dealers outside of New
Jersey to stop the operation of the
state law.
The executive has written a letter
to Richard c. Jenkinson, of Newark,
federal fuel administrators for New
Jersey, in which he declared that he
did not care to have the operation of
the law in this respect blocked by
wholesale coal dealers if within the
power of the state, or the fuel admin
istrator's power and cooperation to
prevent.
Copies of letters passing between
George c. Grosscup, borough clerk of
Wenonah, and the Lehigh Coal and
Navigation Company, of 1411 Walnut
street, Philadelphia, have been
shown to Mr.. Edge, which Prosecutor
Redrow holds are sufficient evidence
to prove the attempt to nullify New
Jerseys law.

Civil Suits Heard Before
Peace Justice at JameSburg

JAMESBURG, April 15-An action
brought by William I. Dawson against
l. Scudder Bennett before Justice
William E. Paxton resulted in a deci-
sion in favor of Mr.. DAWSON Mr.
Bennett failed to appear. The action
was brought owing to the failure of
Mr.. Bennett to return to Dawson a
note that was cancelled and suit was
brought to cancel this debt legally.
Another action brought by Julius
Goldberg against Samuel Sarawitc ch,
both of Cranbury, that was very much
mixed and Justice Paxton withheld
his decision for a week. The action
was for the recovery of s159.81, al
legged to be due Goldberg for money
and other chattels advanced while
boarding at the Sarawitch home.
Walter Suydam represented Sarawitch
and John Kirkpatrick looked after
the interests of Goldberg, who paid so
much per week and purchased fertil-
izer and other necessities needed at
the place, for which he was not given
credit.
