What The Doctor Says BY DR. s. J. CRUMBINE, GENERAL EXECUTIVE AMERICAN CHILD HEALTH ASSOCIATION

, not sucsceeded in interesting. Nurse Roberts thanked me and after 0 | cup of tea she left to continue her | round.
 When she had gone MT Johnson remarked to Mrs Johnson: "That wasn't the nurse who used to come
 round before John was born, was
 it, Mary?" "No," replied Mrs John
 son, "this one is from the Infant Welfare Association; the other one was the public health nurse from the health department" Well" said MT Johnson, "how many nurses are there in this commit nity? Seems to me we've had one come from the school too" "Yes, we have," said Mrs Johnson; "she comes more often than any of the others, when there's any kind of epidemic such as measles or whooping cough in the district" MT Johnson grunted. Case of too many cooks spelling the broth. l should think. What do you say, Doctor?"
 I laughed. "Oh, that isn't al1," I said: there's a nurse connected with the local Tuberculosis associa- ton, and another with the Visiting Nurse association who gives bed- side care or prenatal advice when called on.'
 Both MT and Mrs Johnson look ed surprised but it was MT Johnson who spoke up. But, surely Doc tor" he said, "all these different kinds of nurses aren't necessary? Surely there's lot of overlapping in their work--and with taxes as high as they are"
 I could understand his point of view, of course. agreed, too, that might be some overlapping but not very much because all these agen- cies were joined together in a health council. They talked things over, knew what each was doing, the territory each covered, and so avoided getting in each others way. I explained further that the council on number of occasions had discussed the feasibility of combining all the nursing agencies into one group. They might then assign one nurse to q territory and have her do all the nursing work that needed to be done in that dis trict. Some cities have already done this. They call it "generalized" nursing. The other kind is called specialized" nursing.
 There are practical difficulties, however, in having all the nurses under one head. Whose head? A nurse must have pretty wide ex- perience to do ''generalized" nurs- ing. But 1t is a matter that ought to be looked into very carefully in the interesting economy and effi- cient work.
 Mir Johnson, as an intelligent taxpayer and contributor to the Community Chest, was greatly in- terested. He wanted to discuss it further but had to leave. I told him he ought to have the local Chamber of Commerce invite the head of the health council over to their next meeting to give a talk on the subject, and MT Johnson promised he would call it to the secretary's attention the first thing on Monday morning.

 YOURSELF
By Alicia Hart

Don't greet spring with double chin. If you have one there are ways to get rid of it. If you don't have one, but are over thirty, you should take steps to avoid ever developing one.
 Nothing so disfigures a woman as a chin that has doubled itself. It adds years to your face and general appearance.
 There are creams and lotions made especially for reducing double chin. You can use them right at home providing you fol- low directions closely. Of course, if you can afford it, the treatments given in beauty shops are advan- tageous. Any reliable shop can give you special facial treatments
 which will tend to reduce the sue perfluous flesh under your normal chin-line.
 Most of the preparations to be
 used at home should be used in conjunction with batter. This is a long handled stick affair which
 is padded on the end. You can
 make your own by attaching a cot-
 ton pad to the end of a stick about
 8 foot long. Be sure it is olng enough to be flexible.
 The ideal time to treat your double chin fs at night before you go to bed.
 First, remove all dirt of the day by thoroughly cleansing your face and neck. Now apply strong astringent to your double chin and pat the skin for ten minutes using gentle but firm, upward strokes. Now tie up your chin with piece of linen soaked in the astringent and leave it on while you take your bath. After the bath, re- move the cloth and apply the spe-
 cial cream or lotion for reducing
 chins. This should be patted in for ten minutes with the batter too. Remember to use only upward strokes and don't get too vigorous with the batter. There is danger of injuring the tiny blood vessels in the skin if you pound instead of batting.
 The last step, if your chin has really developed into a double one, is to adjust 8 rubber chin strap and leave it on all night. Don't remove the super1uous lo-S ton or cream before tying on the chin strap. -

MIR JOHNSON TAKE A HAND IN
 COMMUNITY AFFAIRS

Last Saturday afternoon went over to the Johnsons' to hear how MT and Mrs Johnson had enjoyed their vacation trip, and found them both looking a hundred per cent better for the change.
 As we were having tea there was a ring at the front door. Mrs Jofln- son went to see who 1t was and came back with a trim figure in a nurses uniform. It was Nurse Ro- berts of the Infant Welfare Asso- citation, come to check up on the results of the local preschool im- munization campaign which was begun last fall. Mrs Johnson was able to assure her that both Ro- bert and Baby John had been im- munized against diphtheria. I my- self suggested that I could have saved Nurse Roberts good deal of time and trouble if she had come to my office for a list of those chill dren whom I had immunized, and I assured her that as a private phy- sician was only too ready to CO., operate with the public health au- thorities. As proof of this I gave her the names of immunized young sters amongs my own clientele, and also of those whose parents I had

 In the end Grace didn't go back to the office. She went home, and Jimmy promised to call for her at dinner time after which she would go to the train with him. She found herself singing snatches of foolish, gay songs as she took her shower and dressed With a lipstick in her hand as she deepened the rose-red of her lips, she met her own eyes in the mir TOT. She let the hand with the p-stick drop and propped her face in her other hand.
 Funny, wasn't it?" she appeal ed to her mirrored self. The green eyes were long. and soft and glow ing as they smiled back. The dark hair tumbled provocatively around her eager face. Fairy tales seem to have come back. Knights ride home from Camelot, and all the rest of that warmed-over apple sauce."

f.-Wbile there are men of the highest intelligence in all profess sions yet tests of student groups indicate that engineers average somewhat higher than any other group. In q very large test made recently the engineers ranked higher even in liberal arts than did the students in liberal arts.

Use of telephones in airplanes is
increasing about as rapidly as pas
senger planes. Since 1929 when there
were only planes equipped for tele-
phone service, the number has in
creased to about 275. Ground radio
stations devoted to aviation have also
greatly increased during the last few
years. A report of the Federal Radio
Commission shows that 231 ground
stations are equipped for two-way
telephone service, or for radio beacons.
Aviation is now In its thirtieth year.
The first fight Of a man-carrying,
heavier-than-air flying machine was
made by orville and Wilbur Wright
on the sand dunes of North Carolina,
December II. 1908.
Today airplane lines operating on
regular schedules carry passengers,
mail and express. North, South, East
and West, over almost every section
OF the country. The majority Of
planes operated on these lines are
equipped for two-way telephone COM
munication which enables pilots to
keep in constant communication with
dispatchers and ground stations.
In this way pilots can be kept in

SERVES INTERESTS OF MOTOR
lists

To serve the interests of the mo.
.rists Of Maryland in the same way
It has served the motoring public in
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, is the
aim of the Keystone Automobile
Club of Maryland, now functioning
with headquarters at $40 North
Charles Street, Baltimore, and local
representatives in many towns thru
out the State.
Albert E. Buckley, Manager of the
Club in Maryland, outlines some OF
the activities engaged in by his or
ganization which have won public
approval and contributed to the sue
cess of the Club, which is recognized
as the largest automobile club in
Eastern United States.
1.-THE Keystone Automobile Club"
said Mr.. Buckley, "has operated
without interruption since 1906,
when il was organized with a men,
bership of 81 motorists by the late
Joseph H. Weeks, known as the
father of good roads in Pennsylvan-
ia From that small beginning, it
has grown to club of more than
$4,000 active members. Its mill
tant stand in behalf of the rights of
motorists has been responsible for
it's growth and the extension of its
activities over three states.
1.-THE Club from its inception has
championed the cause of goo0 roads.
1t has fought 'fining 'sQuires' who
sought to enrich themselves at the
expense of motorists, and at the
same tine it has stood without reser-
walton for legitimate enforcement of
the motor laws. II has steadfastly
opposed unjustified increases in the
gas tax, and it has fought success
fully against the diversion of motor
funds to other than motorist pur-
poses.
mot content with merely advocat-
ing safety, it has gone to the expense
of establishing a Safety Department
through which Safety Patrols have
been organized in more than $50
schools, with an enrolment Of 400.-
900 children.
Instead of following the usual
procedure of motor clubs and saying
something ought TO be d0as' about

plahe has proved its worth, just as
the telephone in the home has SO
often DONE"
This use of telephone-equipped
planes has come about as the result OF
research and development on the part
of experts of the Bell Telephone Lab
oratories who have been cooperating
for several years with Department. of
Commerce Always Division to make
telephone communication in planes
practical and efficient.
Another communication system
that is serving aviation we'll is the tele-
typewriter. Teletype service is now
operated by the Government and air
transportation companies over an i'm
mense area of the United States.
Pilots, before taking of, call at dis
patchers' Offices and scan the reports
that come clicking off of the teletype
on tape in standardized terms, In
dicating the time, point Of origin, con-
ditions of the weather, wind. visibility
and height Of the "ceiling"-as
aviators call the lower side of the
clouds. The reports are cut of and
pasted on bulletin board giving
complete picture of weather condi-
lions.
The teletypewriter also produces
weather maps which can bring up-to-
the-minute information on flying con-
ditions. These maps may be repro
duced simultaneously at various points
along the line.
