Keep Your Colds To
YOURSELF Says Doctor
Advises Public To Dress In
Accord With Weather And
Eat Properly.

eff you cough or sneeze
Do it behind your 'hanky,' please"
"No better advice could be given
the victim of the cold that is so COM
mon at this time Of the year," says
Or. John S. Fulton, Director of the
State Department of Health, than the
jingle quoted above. Remember that
every cold is caused by germ that
you have picked up from somebody or
something. If you have cold, don't
pass on the germs of your cold to the
next fellow.
"At this time of the year when there
are apt to be sudden changes of tenn
perature, it is worth while to take
some precautions against taking cold.
Dress according to the weather. Don't
over-eat. Drink plenty of water.
Keep yourself fit by daily exercise in
the open. Fresh air is the best pos
sible tonic. Keep away from the per-
son who has cold. Don't use COM
mon towel or drinking cup. The per-
son who coughs or sneezes in your
face, ought to know better. If he
doesn't know better, avoid him.
The laws of Maryland require cases
of influenza and grippe to be reported
to the Bureau of Communicable Dis
eases Of the State Department of
Health. Quarantine is not required
but patients are urged to take every
precaution to prevent the spread of
the infection to others. While quar-
antining is not required, the person
who voluntarily keeps away from
other people while he or she j ssuffer-
ing from cold, isshelping to prevent
the disease from spreading to others,
and is thereby performing a public
service.
