Milford chronicle., 1930-10-03

By Henry Parker Newman, NJ. D.
What is the place for the sick one
in modern society? The old homes
with their spacious interiors are
passing and the average family
house or apartment contains just
enough room for the minimum re-
quirements of living. Organized in
Gustries look after our laundry
work and provide us with public
dining rooms and places to read,
play games, and dance. Sleeping,
bathing, and caring for the children
are the principal functions of the
domestic interior.
But as we restrict our intimate
quarters to the bungalow and the
single apartment, the Hospital is
growing in efficiency of accom-
mediation and in capacity. 1t is also
growing in public esteem. Former
ly it was said: "They have taken
him to a hospital in pity and re-
proach; now they say: Haven't
they taken him to a hospital?" in
astonishment at such neglect.
Do not fear your hospital. No
where else can the sick be cared for
adequately today. No home possesses
the equipment essential to the elab-
crate requirements of the modern
patient. For as science becomes
more knowing every day, it is un-
derstood that the weapons with
which disease may be fought and
comfort and cure effected are many
and complex. The laboratory, the
X-ray, the hydro-and mechano-ther-
aputic measures, the instruments
for studies in metabolism and the
thousand niceties of surgical tech
nique are all beyond the pOssibili-
ties of the home-as- they are of the
ordinary consulting office. Yet ev-
cry sick person is entitled to every
advantage to be gained from any of
these and other scientific means of
examination and treatment.
Make your hospital the health re-
sort. Find out if it is accredited
standardized hospital. If it isn't,
find out why it isn't. A careful
yearly survey of hospitals is con-
Quoted by the American College of
Surgeons, which has furnished the
minimum standard. If your hospital
is on this list it is safe place for
you to go when you are i'll. Do not
fear it and do not wait until you
are seriously ill before you give in
and say to your physician 'all right, |
I'll CO." The medical profession and |
the community have much hard |
work before them before they place |
the hospital before the general pub
lie as the health resort. In the fu-
ture it is to be hoped that with the
appearance of first menacing symp-
toms of ill health, the tired business
man and the ailing woman, the suf-
fering child and all others will
think of the hospital as the place
of help-the best place to go. 1t
will then be the harbOr where the
body's rocking boat will come into
safe waters, and the time of shelter
there will be looked back upon with
many pleasant memories instead of
with the old repungance and fears.
The next time you are Ill and
your doctor advises disqualification,
do not imagine you are seriously
sick, accept the suggestion as the
most economical one that could be
made When you are dismissed from
your hospital nine times out of ten
you will be a hospital booster and
you will see to it that other men,
bers of your family will go there :
when they are ill and not be sub
jected to make-shift appliances that
The average home affords. :

The modern city needs the
strength and vitality of the country
boy. But that country boy who
thinks of escaping the supposed toll
and isolation of the farm by plung-
ing into the ceasless whirl of the
city entertains the widest sort of
a dream.
b.
Some are firm in the belief that
opportunity knocks only once at our
door. This idea cannot be true, for
opportunity is only a chance to do
something, and we have a chance
every day to do that something. Of
course, it is possible that the oppor-
tunity to do a certain thing may not
come but once in lifetime, but the
opportunity to make good" in bus
mess comes daily, yes hourly, as
long as we are in good health and
will recognize the opportunity when
1t arrives. In a case where one is
so blind that he cannot see and so
deaf that he cannot hear, then op-
portunity is not going to knock them
down and cover them with success.
Opportunity is about us all the time;
it's up to us to recognize it and take
advantage of it to make the most of
life. If you are so blind you cannot
see opportunity, then knock the
scales from your eyes that you may
see. If you cannot hear it knocking
at your door, then tune your ears
that they may hear the gentle knock
and open the door to let it come in.

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Big
dinners are in fashion in this
holiday month and next. A
great idea, too-for everybody
except the one who does the
cooking.
Still, modern fashions IN
cooking utensils-and there are
fashions in cooking utensils just
as much as in dresses and
coats and upholsteries and fur
niture-can save you some OF
the labor.
Take the modern roaster, for
example. Really the most i'm
portant utensil Of all, since it
cooks the thing that is most
important in the Thanksgiving
dinner.
Almost all of them have lit
tie inverted points on the in
side of the cover to catch the
steam as it rises, and to drop
it back on the turkey. Self
basting. you see. Not so much
time wasted pulling the oird
out Of the oven every 10 min
utes or so.
Lots of these roasters have
trivets set in the bottom to
hold the turkey and let the
juices all gather underneath for
the gravy. We've had one of
these illustrated below-on the
table.
All these modern roasters can
be had in square, oval or round
shapes-whatever your geomet-
Eical inclinations.

sketched on the table below
with the various parts OF its In
side anatomy. OF course, they
are more expensive than some
other utensils, but you save gas
with them and they're fine, too'
when canning season comes
around.
Electric BeaterS
Electric beaters are great
helps when Thanksgiving and
Christmas arrive. Eggs can be
beaten quicker than a wink.
Cream is standing in luscious
stiff blobs' before you know 1t.
And meringues-Why they're
mere chiId's play, when they're
prepared by electric beating.
One of the popular electric
beaters is shown on. the table.
You'll find that glass pie
plates are in fashion. Why? One
reason is because they're good
looking enough to be put right
on the table. You don't have
to stop to transfer your pie 10
q better looking dish.
And another thing you're go
ing to find on more Thanksgiv-
ing and Christmas tables this
year is the drip-coffee pot that
can be attached to any convent
ent electric plug. The whole
family likes to watch the drip
ping process. And 1t makes
grand coffee!

Combination Cookers

Then there are combination
cookers, designed for saving
space on the stove and cook
ing several vegetables over one
burner. One of these has three
triangular shaped pots that fit
together to make one circle
over one burner. That's Sketched
on the stove.
Another-and this is q four
deck steamer-l1as four COM
partments fitted on top of
each other.
Four different things can be
cooked at one time, the steam
from the bottom container
doing all the work. And that's
sketched on the stove, too.
(This family plans a big dinner,
all rightD
Pressure Cookers
If it's time you want to save,
you can do it with steam-preS-
sure cookers. These are rather
elaborate utensils provided with
steam-presSure gauges and con-
troll valves, but they have inner
compartments in which several
things may be cooked at once
and quickly.
A dinner Of roast chicken
and two vegetables can be made
ready to serve in a half-hour.
Potatoes are boiled in 10 min.
utes. And as it cooks with little
or no water, all the juices and
mineral salts Of the food are
kept intact.
