the District Of Columbia Department,
American Legion, announced that the
Legion's executive committee would

said. He said he proposed to sugge st
that the executive committee formulate
"a definite and sane policy" for pres

How to Massage

We frequently hear that a masseur
or masseuse possesses a great deal
of electricity and that this Is trans
ferred during the treatment to the
patient. In considering the effects Of
massage this idea should haev no
place in the intelligent mind. 1t is
true that one operator may please the
patient better and accomplish more
good than another. but this Is due
only to the fact that one understands
how 1t should be given and the other
does not.
"Stroking" should be done with the
palms of the hands, the movement
light and done in the direction Of the
blood-fow in the arteries. The pur-
pose Of this form Of massage is to
diminish the blood supply and produce
qyieting effect. 1t acts on the tiny
nerve endings in the skin and when
applied about the forehead and at the
base of the brain is very likely to dis
sipate the vague sensations Of rest
lessness and cause the patient to
, sleep.
Friction" is practically the re-
verse. The palms are moved over the
surface of the body with considerable
pressure with the direction from be-
low upwards. thus stimulating the
flow in the veins. On the extremities
use both hands. beginning with the
foot and move in a circular direction
with pressure on the up-stroke and
| lightened as the hands come down.
| Friction promotes circulation and is
useful when the skin is ''clammy."
When rubbing the back use both
hands with pressure up and out from
the spine. Do not touch the spine
itself. Talcum powder or olive oil may
be used II the bare hand is irritating
to the patient
There should be absolute quiet
maintained during the treatment and
the temperature OF the room should
be pleasantly warm. 1t must be given
between blankets and only that por-
ion of the body exposed that the
operator is working on at the time.
Your patient should be dosing-rest-
ing quietly at least when you are
through. Let the full benefit Of the
scientific" rubbing be enjoyed before
attempting to replace the clothing.

JOAN.

Joan is the feminine counterpart Of
John and yet II has never had the
common vogue Of that most popular
of male proper names. Joan signifies
gift Of the Lord" and there Is con-
siderable question as to whether its
origin was English or Teutonic.
At any event. the name first made
its appearance as Joanna and is said
to have originated with Joanna, holy
woman Of the Gospel She was never
canonized. SO 1t Is believed that the
name was adopted rather in honor
