when person goes from a hot room
into the cold outside. To avoid this
sudden change it is recommended
that inside temperatures should be
kept relatively low in homes and Of
fees. Experiments show that school
children do the best work at a tenn
perature of 6S degrees. Allowing
two degrees margin, the proper tenn
perature for living rooms and offices
is 20 degrees. Higher temperatures
reduce efficiency and resistance.
The act of sneezing and coughing,
or even vigorous talking, may throw
a spray from the mouth and nose for
several feet. Currents of air may
carry the particles which often con-
tain germs of disease, even as far as
twelve feet. Persons who get in
range of the spray of person with
a cold are liable to 'catch" cold.
Like other communicable diseases,
colds are often spread through con-
tact with the hand. 1t has been
stated that perhaps 80 per cent of
cases of communicable diseases may
be hand-borne.
Some rules to prevent colds:
1. Keep the temperature of the house
and office at not above 70 degrees.
2. Wear clohtse appropriate to the
temperature.
8. Stay at home when you have
cold.
4. Cover nose and mouth when
sneezing or coughing.
5. Keep away from houses where
anyone is ill with a cold, infiu-
enza, pneumonia or other disease.
6. Avoid over-fatigue or sudden
change in temperature.
z. Wash your hands before eating
or before handling food for other
people.
s. Do not spit. Splitting spreads dis
ease.
8. Avoid acidosis by including in the
daily diet sufficient amount of
milk, vegetables, some fresh fruit,
and plenty of pure water.

Like the whisperings Of Minis
trel music the past returns. Upon
the mountain peak of the present we
look upon by gone events. What a
vista. There are fields of sacrifice,
valleys of Encouragement and hills
of difficulty. Across and over these
noble and loyal souls have carried
the church until today it is ours
strengthened by eighty years OF de-
velopment.
"Yet this occasion demands that
our view should also be prospective.
We turn and face the future. 1t
challenges the best within us. There
are cares but we will make them
conquests. There are griefs, but we
will make them glorious. There are
oppositions but we will make them
opportunities. And there are trials
but we will make them triumphs. In
the name Of Christ we consecrate
ourselves to the joyous task. We

This is the season of the year when
colds make their appearance. The
first extensive wave of "colds" of the
fall season usually appears in Oc-
tober.
Colds cost money. Tens of thou
sands of days work are lost each
year and efficiency for countless
other days is reduced because work
ers have colds. Besides the money
loss, much joy is taken out of life by
the misery of having cold. Yet
statistics show that people in gen.
eral have an average of nearly two
colds per person year. At this pro-
portionate rate the people of the
United States should have about
220,000,O00 colds during the "cold"
season, not to mention the number of
summer colds" which are account
ed for in part by hay fever and other
protein sensitization. The common
cold" is so common that it has been
called "the universal disease"
Some people think that they take
cold when they get chilled. Chilling
may reduce body resistance, but of
itself does not cause cold. Chill
ing seems to have the worst results

Afternoon Meeting

The community service was held
at three o'clock. Still the rain con-
tinued but the attendance was good.
After Prof. Hudson and DR.. e. N.
Matsinger had pleased the audience
with the duet, "Inspirer and Hearer
of Prayer" DR.. Eells presented the
program. Although two of the To-
cal pastors were out of the city yet
the clergy was adequately repre-
sented. Rev. Eells spoke of his de-
lightful association with his bro
ther ministers and introduced DR..
Frank Herson as the president of
the Ministerial Association. The
pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
Church expressed his pleasure in
standing in the Presbyterian pulpit
and in bringing greetings from the
Mother Church of Milford" His
remarks were we'll thought out
along the line of the permanency of
the church and its grip on the
hearts of the people. Rev. J. L.
Nichols, secretary-treasurer of the
Ministerial Association, spoke in be-
half of the Methodist Protestant
Church. There was a suggestion of
humor in some of his expressions.
Yet there was a marked sincerity in
his declarations of friendship for
the Presbyterian Church and its
pastor. Both pastors contributed
much to the good feeling and sue
cess of the occasion.
The main feature of the afternoon
was the address by the Hon. Josiah
Marvel of Wilmington. DR.. Eells
introduced him as ian eminent law
yer, prominent member of the
American Bar Association and an
efficient public servant. But today
we welcome him as Christian gen.
tleman and devoted churchman of
a sister denomination. Mr.. Marvel
captured his audience at once by his
modesty and desire to be helpful. In
his treatment of the subject with
out the Church" he matched the oc-
casion in every particular His eulo-
gy of the Bible was eloquently i'm

Yet Jesus had expressed the thought
and spirit of that motto nineteen
centuries ago when he said "It is
more blessed to give than to re-
ceive." He made attractive the
"short stories" of the Bible and
graphically described its power in
bringing the church into existence.
His plea to cooperate with religious
work will be long remembered by
those present.

Thank Offering


After the historical sketch had
been read DR.. Eells announced the
names of the absent friends who
had sent contributions to the spe-
cial offering for the musical depart
ment of the church. A silver salver
had been placed in front of the pull
pit. The people passed by in line,
placing their offerings in the sal
yer and returned to their seats.
Then little Miss Lydia Bell Toad

Grated the offering.

From expressions on the floor by Senator Sundquist, Chairman, it is certain that Q number of amend ments have been made to the bill which will require adjustments with the House, necessitating free con- ferences before final settlement is possible.
 The appropriation for the col lege, $135 ,035, carried in House Bill 35, was still blockaded in the Fiji nance Committee of the Senate. As the general appropriations bill car ries an identical item, it is cer- tain that the Senate will have to act on the subject since, even though it should be decided to al low the college measure to die in committee, that course will hardly be pursued with the general bill.

Road to Radium HiU
 WiU Cost Millions

SYDNEY, Australia, May 2.-How much is a road worth that will open to commerce a lode of radium ore 20 feet wide?
 More than $2ooo,000 is the answer of a group of Australians who pro- pose to build such highway
 Existence of the 20-foot radio active lode in Mt. Painter and Ra- dium hill, in south Australia near the New South Wales border has been known for years, since SIT Douglas Mawson and others veri- fled it's existence. It is considered here as the largest eventual radium supply in the world. But trans portation is only by camel and this has been too expensive to encour- age development.
 when, however, the common wealth government recently bought about $5O0,O00 worth of radium from Belgium, it started an agitation for opening Radium hill.
