IN PUBLIC HEALTH
News Letter Prepared for Gazette
Readers Under Supervision of
Minnesota State Medical Associa-
ton.

Perhaps everyone has noticed the
good effect which fresh air has upon
appetite. But very few appreciate
how an absence of fresh air will de-
crease appetite. Persons who habit
ually live in overwarm air lose an
appetite for wholesome foods. Their
taste turns more to appetizers, sweets
and delicacies. These statements were
contained in a bulletin issued by the
Minnesota State Medical Association
today.
This is not so important in adults
as in children. When children do
not eat wholesome, nourishing foods
growth is interfered with an malnu-
triton is the result. One-fourth to
one-third of all school children suffer
more or less from malnutrition, which
means that their bodies are not re-
ceiving the proper nourishment for
healthy growth. Most of these chill
dren weigh less than they should nor
mally for their s,ye and height.
While other causes besides lack
of fresh air influence child's nutri-
ton and growth, no cause is more
easily corrected. 1t should be posi-
BILE for all children to have fresh air
at all times, both at home and in
schools. When sufficient Importance
is attached to the. problem by enough
parents and teachers something will
be done to keep all children in fresh
air constantly during their growing
years. By the end of that time fresh
air will become so necessary to them
that they will insist upon having it
in their places of business and enter
tainment as we'll as in their homes.

TEN GOOD RULES
FOR SAFE DRIVING

1t may be late to make New Year
resolutions, but if you are late max
ing them, you may be late breaking
them. The following, offered by an
automobile club official, are good for
any time of the year, and any year:
1. Be courteaus. Never race for a
crossing or position on the road be-
cause you have the right of way.
2. Never travel at a rate of speed
that will make it impossible to bring
the car to stop in a reasonable dis
lance.
3. Never speed upon a hill or on
curves where there is not clear Wis
ion ahead.
A. Keep your eyes on the road and
do not talk with persons on the back
seat while driving.
5. Study traffic rules and obey
them. You may not agree that they
are all sound, but they benefit the
majority.
6. Sturdy ways of avoiding longest
ed streets and you will find that time
can be saved with greater driving
safety.
Z. Remain a safe distance behind
the car ahead, especially on heavy
travelled highways.
8. Always be sure that the brakes
of your car, windshield wiper and
other safety appliances are ready to
function.
9. When driving in congested areas
be sure that there is plenty of gaso-
line in the tank. 1t will save your
self and other motorists delays and
annoyance.
10. Always give fellow motorists a
"break" and you will be surprised at
the number you get.

COFFEE SALEMAN
ARRESTED AT MADELIA

A coffee salesman was arrested at
Madelia week or two ago. He sold
the coffee direct to the farmers, col
lected the cash and failed to deliver
the coffee. He also worked his game
in Redwood county. While he will
pay the penalty for his crookedness,
this doesn't help those who bought
coffee and failed to get it. How
ever, little sympathy need be wasted
on people who will pay cash in adj
vance to a stranger for anything.
We have stores in town selling coffee
at as reasonable prices as it can be
bought for anywhere and the coffee
peddling stranger should be shown
the gate.
