Communication provides the motive

the world make heavier business de-

The needs of nation-and of a

have human control, they were told by
their instructors. Since the body is
more perfect than any other machine it
should be properly reverenced and
given exceptionally good care. This
sums up in a general way the prin-
cipal features of the health course.
Good care of the body is reflected in
ones personal habits. This is we'll
illustrated by the fact that the person
who lives in a wholesome way reflects
care, whereas the person who has
lived careless, Incorporate life usu-
ally shows it in his or her appearance.
Food and drink are matters of vital
Importance which are not only abso-
lutely essential to life itself but their
intelligent use is a great aid to ones
general health and we'll being. Food
and its various classifications were
one of the subjects covered at great
length in the telephone company's
health course. The students learned
what to eat, what is injurious to
health and that certain things which
may be good for one person are I'M
desirable for another. Overweight,
they were told, is just as detrimental
to some people as underweight is to
others.
Under the formation of good habits
of living, those taking the telephone
health course learn that one of the
secrets of good health is a proper
frame of mind. lust as the mind
controls ones voluntary actions such
as walking and talking, so it has
most important influence on the more
voluntary body functions. The young
women were taught that an improper
mental altitude soon shows itself in
physical condition which detracts
from a persons appearance and may
seriously endanger their health. A
sunny disposition is one of natures
most appealing accomplishments 1t
is decidedly an aid to success. A
pleasing disposition is a thing which
people remember longest, the health
course instructors state. 1t is some
thing to think about and, according
to the instructors, many of the grad
yates do.
