Then came an afternoon when
Whitley had been gone nearly all day

about dusk he returned to Farmer

and he was very, very hungry. He
looked over to Farmer Browns

Whitley lost his appetite. But he

Your Health
How to Keep It.
Causes of Illness
By DR.. NORRIS F1SHBEIN
Editor journal OF the American
Medical Association and OF Hy-
geia. the Health Magazine

Medical Association and OF Hy-
geia, the Health Magazine
The Medical Research Council of
| Great Britain has completed an
investigation of the physique of
working women in an attempt to
determine what limits should be
placed on their physical work.
Over 5000 women employed in
factories were studied and COM
pared with 400 women who had
formerly worked in factories but
who had been out OF work for a
long period. The final group for
comparison included 500 healthy
women who were attending COL
lege for teachers
Among the tests applied were
lifting, the grip of the hand. and a
crushing forward movement. The
heaviest work done by any of the
women was that in the chemical
works and in the brick works. but
others were occupied in steel trades
and in potteries. Many of the wo-
men also worked in industries
which merely required them to
watch activities of various ma
chimes
1t was found by the observers
that the most perfect specimens OF
womanhood in industry were the
girls in the chemical works in
Glasgow Practically all of the wo-
men had been born and bred in the
slum districts of Glasgow and their
mothers and grandmothers had
done the same kind of work before
them.
One of these girls had shoveled
from twenty to twenty five tons of
raw material In one day. lifting the
shovel to height of . IL feet.
The girls who worked in the
brick works carried as much as one
hundred pounds at time, dis
lance of from seventy to eighty
yards:
About half the girls were be-
tween the ages of II and %. The
average weight of the women
studied was found to be 100 pounds;
the average height was So inches;
the average pull OF the body up
ward was 1873 pounds: the grip was
IS pounds. and the crushing power
was SO pounds.
The teachers, who ranged from
Is to % years of age, were in gen.
eral, in height, weight, and strength
superior to both groups of working
girls. In an attempt to account for
their physical superiority it was
found that they underwent a medi-
cal examination before employment,
so that they We're really picked wo-
men. All of them had regular ply
steal training, and during their
training regular physical examina-
ton.
AS result OF this inquiry it was
not possible to decide on any tests
that should be applied in determine
ing particular fitness for industry
of women workers. 1t was only
suggested that such workers should
have complete physical examina-
ton previous to employment in in
dustries, and regular heavy physical
labor, and regular examinations as
to their fitness to continue such
work.
