KEEP YOUR COLD GERMS
TO YOURSELF, is ADVICE
Colds Are Catching Health
Directors Lists ."DOnt's"

"Colds are catching. If you are
unlucky enough to have one, keep
your germs to yourself. Have pity
on the other fellow. Don't sneeze or
cough in your neighbours face. Sneeze
or cough into your handkerchief, and
use a paper napkin or one of some
material that can be destroyed or
burned" is the advice of DR.. R. H.
Riley, Director of the State Depart
ment of Health.
Don't go visiting while you have
a cold. Remember how uncomfortable
you are and spare your friends from
similar experiences. If circumstances
make it necessary for you to keep a
keepin' on observe the Golden Rule
and treat others as you would be glad
to have them treat you. Don't shake
hands. You can follow the Chinese
custom of shaking your own hands.
Don't exchange pens or pencils, or any
other things you have been carrying
in your pockets, with others. Little
children are particularly susceptible
to colds. Protect them from your
germs. Don't give a child taste OF
something from off your plate. Don't
kiss child, or anybody for that mat
ter, squarely in the mouth, at any
time-cut out all kinds of kissing
while you have cold.
eve don't know much about the
tiny organisms that cause these colds
that give us so much trouble, except
that they are so minute that they can
not be detected by the most powerful
microscope. But we do know from
personal experience what the germs
do to us. And that is enough to put
US on our guard against them. The
laboratory workers have discovered
that the cold producing germs are tc
be found in the excretions from the
nose and throat of persons who have
colds. Innumerable quantities of the
germs are sprayed out into the all
with every careless sneeze or cough
Some of this infectious material is de-
posted on the victims hands and or
everything he touches-cups, glasses
spoons, dishes, pipes, pencils. That is
why doctors tell you to have your
dishes and table utensils boiled be-
fore using second time whenever
you have a cold.
"The quickest way to get rid of a
cold is to go home and go to bed if
possible and to stay there until you
are better and no longer a source OF
danger to others. Drink plenty OF
water; go on a light diet. If you
ache all over and have any signs OF
fever, send for your doctor and follow
his instructions"
