SAFETY WEEK.

Yesterday Chief of Police Raw 1ings issued orders to traffic officers and patrolmen calling attention to law regarding fast and reckless driv- ins.
 But the matter will not stop here. It is expected that the courts will and punish offenders who arc brought before them pursuant to the orders thus issued by the chief.
 Nor will the matter be allowed to rest there. The State Police Chiefs association. at recent meeting. de- cidod that a week should be devoted to tho subject of Safety" They req lized, as we all must realize that the safety of people does not rest alone with any department. any group of persons. any one person.

Beauty Chats
A TOUGH OF COLOR.
By EDNA KENT FORBES

The woman who is very pale need not use rouge to lend a touch of color so many clever little ways of giving an effective color without actually spreading a layer of 1t over the cheeks.
 For instance, there is the color of the costume. The pale or sallow girl should never wear white, not even a white waist. White has a deadening effect. It can be the most beautiful and it can be the most harmful color. If you are too dark in complication white will make the skin darker If you are sa1low 1t will increase the sallowness. if you are pale 1t will a bad skin 1t will emphasize every blemish.
 If you are sallow choose cream color or flesh pink. never bright pink. If you are white faced wear flesh pink blouses, which almost seem to reflect their tint in the face. If you are a brunette, or If you are very sunburned so that the skin Is darker than you wish never wear very dark or very loud" colorA
 Then there is one important mat ter. Introduce one single note of bright color in the costume. A scar let tie on the blouse suits the bru- nette, a grey tie the girl with grey eyes, yellow or brown for brown eyes, help wonderfully to bring out the eyes of a blonde If you do not wear ties wear a fancy colored necklace. The artificial beads, so cleverly man shapes and colors and will lend a most becoming touch to your cos tune.
 Mrs A. E.: Miss M. R. F.:-Exercise: or massage, Ill reduce the size of the legs. This same advice may be given in those cases here the limbs are thin. as exercise builds up the muscles, while it consumes the ex- cess fat. In massaging. the muscles should be kneaded with deep mo- tions, in order to be fully benefited of the muscles. In reducing, a solu- ition of Epson salts or very salty wa ter may be used on the skin with the massage. To fatten the limbs, feed rthe tissues by using cocoa butter with the massage.
 Sixteen: Anxious Bobby: Miss B TW.:-Some young girls appear to b' uneven growth, which is overcome il "a few years when the body attains it correct proportions.
 Cold ater dashed over the ches each morning, followed by a brisl rub, using a coarse towel, will be al that most women reuiqre to keep al lthc muscles of the chest in good con ,dition. Women who have matured may easily reduce the size of tn tbust through general reduction.
 All inquiries addressed to Mis- Tories in care of the Beauty Chats department will be answered In thes columns in their turn. This require
 considerable time, hoevwer, owing t lthe great number received. So if personal or quicker reply Is desired a stamped and self-a tdressed envel tope must be enclosed with the Ques ition.-The Editor.

RENTS IN CITY
 ON NORMAL SCALE

Rents in Bridgeport are on nor ma 1scaIe and no material reduction is looked for, according to W. H. Ham of the Bridgeport Housing Cor poration. There is no excessive sup ply of rents, despite reports that hundreds of flats and apartments are unoccupied. While there is a large number of residents moving from the city to surrounding towns where there is more activity along industrial lines, newcomers are arriving in num- bers large enough to fill such va cancieS.
 Compared generally with prices of a year ago, MT. Ham declared there was little if any change in the rental costs of houses, flats or apartments. In the opinion of MT. Ham business conditions here have shown a slight improvement which should influence gradual movement of former resi- dents to move back to the city.

VACCINATION
 FOR TYPHOID
 SHOWS VALUE

: The protection given soldiers in the World War has now shown itself in civil life.
 A careful study of the recent ty- phoid epidemic in Salem, O., shows that there were Ss2 cases of typhoid fever within period of three months in this city which had a population of 1o.s
 The outbreak was found to be due to the pollution of the city's water supply. that 21O men, who had received the typhoid vaccine while in the U. S. Army or Navy during the war lived in Salem. Of this number only three had typhoid fever, although they had been vaccina,ted two or three years previously.
 It is interesting to compare the percentage of cases occurring in the unvaccinabed portion of the town and in this group of ex-service men For instance if we subtract the 210 men from the population of the town, we have a town population of 10,095; and the three cases from the total cases, we have S79 cases. These sta tistics tabulized are as follows:
 Popula-
 ton. Cases. PC. Salem, O., (ex-ser-
 vice men deduct
 ed) ... 1o,o9s s7e S.7 Ex-seryice men -. 21O IA
 This shows what public hea th or cials and physicians have been advo- eating evter since typhoid vaccine was known, for whereas only If per cent of men vaccinated against typhoid contracted the disease, we find that ST per cent. of the unvacc1nated pop uBation had the disease.
 If the population of Salem, O., had been vaccinated against typhoid fever and the same percentage caught the disease that existed among the ex- xEn IA cases in this epidemic in Salem, O., as compared with the sS2 cases that occurred and much sickness and many deaths avoided.
 Vaccinated persons are protected against typhoid fever nearly absolute ly for a year after being inoculated. The value of vaccination against small pox is well known by those who are brought into contact with this disease. It is unfortunate that certain cities have occasional out | breaks of smallpox, but it is on these | occasions that the value of smallpox | front.
 The outbreak of smallpox in Glas- gow, Scotland, 1920, which had been | free from smallpox fatalities for sev- era1 years, demonstrates once again the value of vaccination for protec- ton against smallpox particularly ii done within seven years. l In this outbreak we find that none | of the 32 vacc1nated children unoer Is years of age died. whereas 36 of 1O4 unvaccinated children in the same group were fatal. In the adult age group, we find a similar situation, although many of the adults were vaccinated in childhood, and were thus not completely immunized against the disease. Thus the loss of immunity exists where vaccination was done many years before. It is interesting to note that of the l o5 n childhood nr1y 16 per cent. died, whereas 73 per cent of the adults died who had never been vaccinated-
 After the outbreak started there was a great demand for vaccination in Glasgow, but it is extremely un- fortunate that vaccination against
