HINTS ON HEALTH
prepared and Furnished by the
Public Health Education
Committee Of Minnesota
State Medical ASSN.

Saint Paul, Minn.-Persons sensi-
tive to hayfever during the fall may
suffer from rose cold" in the month
of June. The pollen of various
shrubs, bushes, flowers, and trees af
feet people differently. Hey-fever vic
Tins should seek prevention before
the season which affects them has ar
rived.
The educational committee of the
Minnesota State Medical association
declares in a recent bulletin, that
many people suffer almost as much
distress from the pollen of roses and
timothy grass in the month of June,
as others in August when the ragweed
bloom is at its height.
True hay-fever comes at about the
same time each year and is due to
peculiar sensitiveness of some persons
to the pollens of certain grasses,
weeds, plants, or trees. The earliest
cases appear when the birch, maple,
and certain other trees are spreading
their pollens. The next group begins
to suffer some time in May or June,
depending upon the weather. Contrary
to general belief, roses are not usually
responsible for the trouble at this
time because their pollen is heavy
and therefore not widely scattered
Timothy, Kentucky blue grass and
red top are reported to be the chief
offenders in the spring. Japanese
clematis and the virgins bower, which
also belongs to the clematis family,
have a hay-fever pollen. Later in
the year the pollen of weeds, par
ticularly rag weed has been shown
to be the usual cause of the disease.
"The modern method of treating
hay-fever consists first in finding out
which particular pollen is responsible
for the rouble. This can be deter
mined by any physician who is
equipped to make skin tests with ex-
tracts of the various suspected pol
lens. Such tests are neither painful
nor complicated. A small quantity
of each extract is introduced beneath
the skin by needle prick. Substances
to which the patient is not sensitive
cause no reaction but when the ex-
tract containing the offending pollen

Astronomy Not Alone
of Sentimental Value

Although you may never have the
adventurous experience of being set
adrift in a lifeboat or being lost
among the clouds, nevertheless, we
think you will enjoy this descrip-
ton by Elmer B. Collins, nautical
expert of the Navy department, of
the O'clock in the Sky"
If you were to blindfold an e1-
pert navigator of a modern ocean
liner, ship him to any of the worlds
seven seas, transport him to any Of
the various points of the compass,
either in the direction of the warm
tropical waters of the South Sea
isles, or toward the cold stormy seas
of the frigid zones, and, then after
removing the bandage from his eyes,
you were to supply him with nau-
tical almanac, sextant, and chro-
nometer, set to the time of Green
wich, in 20 minutes, after he has
observed the altitude of a couple
of stars, his whereabouts will be
known to him within mile or 80.
Is not this an amazing triumph for
the worth and usefulness of prac-
teal astronomy? Surely the move
ments Of these numerous cosmic
bodies are for other purposes than
sentimental star gazing.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
(By S. w. StrauS)

During the school year which re-
Gently came to close, great progress
was made in the development of thrift
education. The past school year
marked the real beginning of thrift
as a part of the school curriculum.
This is not to minimize the value of
previous efforts. The school savings
bank has been a recognized part of
school work. in many systems for a
number of years. Here and there,
also, efforts have been made to give
thrift a place among the common
branches of study.
Something over a year ago, how
ever, a definite course of thrift study
was completed through the coopera-
ton of the American Society for
Thrift. Arthur H. Chamberlain,
educational director of that organi-
cation, now reports that during the
first year of the Introduction of the
thrift course of study it found its place
in school systems in IS states and the
Territory of Hawaii. OF these states,
three are in the east; eight in the CEN
trail section; three in the south; two
in the west and two on the Pacific
coast There are 81 cities in these
states where the course of study Vas
prominently used, Mr.. Chamberlain
reports, in addition to which there
were numerous counties in which it
was adopted.
To those who are not familiar with
these activities, a word of explanation
toward the introduction of thrift into
the American school system were TAX
en- at the meeting of the National Edu-
cation association in Oakland, Calf,
in 1915. Committees of educators
were then appointed to canvass the
were required for research. Still
further time was needed by the educa-
tional committees to translate their
data into definite classroom lessons.
The task was brought to a close early
last year. Since then two editions of
the Outline Study Course in Thrift
have been published; the third is now
in preparation.
Thus it would appear that very
commendable start has been made.
With the school year to begin this
fall, the subject of thrift will no doubt
find its way into an ever increasing
number of classrooms.
1t is also worthy of note that the
great Parent-Teacher organization
has become interested in the subject
and in many places is giving splendid
cooperation.
No one can doubt the value of thrift
in the school room; on the contrary
its value is beyond the power of hui
man comprehension.

period of ten days. 1t will be a won
derful educative experience for the
