Try 5-Minute Rests
If You Get Tired Out

Now that the warm days are
here, it often seems difficult to get
through our work without getting
completely tired OUT.
To avoid this, try taking five
minutes rest at the end of each
hour or so, instead of waiting until
the end of the morning or the
afternoon.
Fatigue will usually vanish dur.
ing these short and frequent rest
periods, leaving us rested and ready
for other activities at the end of
our working hours.

Asbestos Mat Should
Go Under Glass Dish

While the oven-proof glass which
is manufactured into so many at.
tractive dishes today is made of a
special heat-resisting glass, it will
not Withstand direct contact with a
hot open flame.
A thin asbestos mat should be
placed between the bottom of a
glass percolator or teapot and the
open gas flame or electrical heat
ing unit. Glass cracks when it
expands unevenly, and this is ant
to happen if a glass utensil is put
over direct heat. just as some
times happens when boiling Jelly
IS poured into cool Jelly glass.

Ill
HABIT
HIT

Are the rapid-transit style of
breakfast and the very light house
work tendencies beginning to affect
the health of the nation?
Are scientists right in affirming
that 70 per cent of the worlds
work is done in the morning hours
and the body needs adequate sus-
tenance for the mornings work?
We are a nation of extremists, &C.
cording to dieticians and physicians,
who now stand aghast at the star
walton breakfast diet BENZ served
in many American kitchenettes.
81 don't know how it started"
says a leading diet authority, "but
perhaps it all began with the diet
craze. Women wanted to get thin.
They began to cut down on break
fast. and pretty soon they had the
whole family doing the same thing.
More Than Coffee Needed
Now it's one thing to decide that
the old-fashioned pioneer meal of
meat and potatoes and pie and hot
cakes is not suited to a city office
worker, but to cut out everything
except cup of coffee is ridiculous.
Consequently, physicians and
dieticians are beginning to urge that
housewives serve at least glass of
orange juice, a dish of oatmeal with
milk or cream, which provides the
body with enough sustaining food
to give strength and energy
throughout the morning"
I'VE want to cut out midmorning
lunch" a group of department store
welfare workers said recently.
Girls come down without enough
breakfast and then in the middle of
the morning, just when they are
most needed in the department, they
disappear; have to go and get
something to eat. If they ate
enough breakfast TO begin with, that
wouldn't happen.

BREAKF Asst Is
CHIEF MEAL

In order that the school child
gets the greatest amount of good
from his classes the heaviest work
must be scheduled in the morn
ing. This is the consensus of a
number of school authorities and
physicians who were recently asked
their methods in laying out school
work for best results.
The normal child, according to
these authorities. is much more
alert in the morning and. after a
simple exercise at the opening of
school, his mind will absorb much
more than it will at any other
time.
This is the reason why the
classes that are the hardest and
require more brain work are
scheduled in the morning and
those that are the easiest are
taken up in the afternoon.
These school authorities believe
that there are two factors which
contribute to this greater amount
of energy and alertness in the
morning hours. The first step is
sleep and the second is the amount
and kind of food eaten for break
fast.
IN nearly every home children
are made To go to sleep early on
the nights before school days, and
this factor is usually favorable for
excess energy in the morning.
The second factor, that of eating
the proper breakfast, is not so
often the rule and the condition is
serious, for even if enough sleep is
obtained the child will not be up
to standard if only a sketchy break
fast is eaten.
That is why these school physi-
clans advise a hearty breakfast
for the child and urge mothers
not to let the child go to school
without the proper nourishment.
The breakfast should include
orange juice, cereal, such as rolled
oats, and a glass of milk This
kind of breakfast will allow the
child TO cope with the harder work
in the morning and get the greatest
good from his school training.

BY the Associated Press.
A filibuster against the McFadden
branch banking bill Is threatened in
the Senate, where formidable group
from Western and Southern States
are dissatisfied with the measure as
approved by the House.
The first effort will be to have the
Hull amendments, stricken out by the
House, reinserted, and, failing in that
move, general fight on the bill is
expected, although opponents do not
claim they can muster strength to
defeat 1t in case the majority leaders
press for action.
One of the principal objections of
opponents of the measure is the claim
that 1t would permit control by larger
banks over many branches over the
country, through consultations and
otherwise, with resultant concentra-
ton of wealth.
Among Senators who will demand
important changes are Howell. Re-

FAVORS RAISING
PHARMACY TESTS
Senate District Committee
Reports Bill for Higher
Standards Here.

After making several amendments,
the Senate District committee today
fayorably reported the bill to raise the
standard governing the practice Of
pharmacy in Washington. The com
mittee amendment would do the fol-
lowing things
Postpone the effective date of the
new law for one year, so as not to
work an injustice on students who
are about to take the examinations
for licensed pharmacists; restrict the
power of the Board of Pharmacy in
revoking licenses by providing for a
public hearing, and the right of the
pharmacist to apply to the District
Court of Appeals for a writ of error
if his license is revoked,
The main feature of the bill is a
requirement that a pharmacist in
future must be a graduate of an
accredited school of pharmacy and
have three years of practical expert
ence in a drug store. Under the
existing law there Is provision for
a college education and three years of
experience, but that law also allows
a person to be licensed without the
school requirement IL he has had four
years of drug store experience.
The bill would require all pharma-
cists to register every three years as
means Of giving the board a check on
those who should not be relicensed.
The committee explained in its report
to the Senate that there has been so
much progress In the study Of
chemistry and the preparation Of
medicine since the present law was
enacted that these additional require
ments are necessary to insure the
highest degree of service on the part
OF pharmacists.
