COLD WEATHER WARNINGS
BY DR.. ARTHUR L. FORSTER
Copyright 1927, Bonnet Brown Corp)

During nine months of the year
many of the readers of this column
are obliged to provide artificial heat
to keep themselves comfortable
against cold temperatures. And while
my readers down in Texas will not be
as interested in this topic as my
friends in Alberta, they may CLEAN
some satisfaction out of the fact they
don't have to go through all this.
However, perhaps, they don't get the
same kick out of summer we northern
ers do, after hard winter. All values
are comparative.
Winter Diseases Due to Lack of
Sunshine
During the cold weather, diseases
affecting principally the respiratory
tract are more prevalent than in the
summer time. Not because it is cold
but because we are housed in and do
not get as much fresh air and sun
shine. The beneficent ultraviolet rays
of sunlight cannot get through ordin-
airy window glass, so we don't get
them. AS result the germs which
are destroyed by these rays thrive
vigorously and increase in virulence.
The combination-lo resistance
plus bacterial nvasion-brings on
disease.
Moral: No matter how cold it is
pet ortdoors evely day-harden the
skin by bathing just as regularly as
in hot weather. Don't shut the Win
dows at night; use more covers and
get fresh air.
Importance of Humidity
One prolific source of colds" in
cold weather is the dryness of the air

school has for its head Mr.. A. D.
Williams. He teaches two classes Of
general science, and class in
Physics. He also teaches chemistry
every other year. These classes take
two periods a day, one for recitation
and one for laboratory work.
The general science class is made up
of freshmen. 1t consists of general
work giving the fundamentals Of
science and fits the pupil for fur
Their study along some particular line.
1t is work of a practical nature deal
ing with many Of the common
machine appliances in use today. 1t
teaches the student the manipulation
of the laboratory equipment, the ele-
ments of measurement, heat, force,
and sound, also it gives them the
right ideas Of the world about them.
1t nets two credits for years work.
Physics is a two-credit subject open
to Juniors and Seniors. The chief aims
of Physics are to present the ele-
ments of Physics to the student.
Physics stimulates thinking on the
part of the student about the hows
and why's Of the physical world in
which he lives. The subjects taken
up are simple measurements, pres
sure and atmospheric pressure, force
of motion, work of mechanical and
heat energy, heat, light, sound, sim
pie electricity and invisible radiation.
