Is the time when a y~oungster may come home with
a large lump on each side Of the jaw, the result Of in
lection with the organism that causes mumps.
Sometimes mumps begins with chillneSS, moderate
fever. and a feeling OF illness. Sometimes it involves
not only the parotid gland on The side OF the face in
front Of the ear, but also the submaxillary gland. just
below the jaw.
Occasionally the swelling in mumps is SO great that
the features are swollen and distorted. Naturally also,
as a result Of the swelling, the movement of the jaw Is
restricted and painful.
Since this infection involves the glands that make
the saliva. the mouth may be dry as a result Of lack
Of this lubricating fluid.
The swelling in humps may be very mild and dis
appear after two Or three days. Then again it may
last for a considerable time. For a good many years
people have had the notion that anyone with humps
is especially susceptible to sour substances and cannot
eat pickles or drink vinegar. This, however, is not
a reliable test for presence or the disease.
When a child comes down with mumps and there
are other cases in the community, it is simple for ply
sicians to make the diagnosis promptly. Usually the
child with mumps has been in contact with another
child who has the disease, anywhere from 4 to Is days
previously. The usual period before appearance Of
thlS disease alter contact With another case, Is IL days.
Mumps is considered dangerous from the time when
the early symptoms begin until one week after all the
swelling is gone. The infection is distributed through
the discharge from the nose and the saliva from the
mouth.
When a child has mumps. other persons in the fam
iy. particularly the children. should not be permit
ted to approach him. II they do they are likely, not
only to get the disease themselves, but to spread it to
other children.
In most instances a child with mumps is not permit
ted to attend school for at least two weeks after the
time when the case Is first seen, and II the swelling
lasts longer than two weeks. the child must be kept
At home at least one week after all swelling has dis
appeared.
Usually the parents IN the family do not have to stay
away from their work, but it Is advisable for them
to avoid contact with the sick child.
Despite what happens IN continents overseas, the
United States OF America shall and must remain I'M

articles this week. One is energy

tain the integrity Of the organism in
the face Of the destructive forces OF

. There are other balances, however,
that are tissue balances. The most
important of these is the nitrogenous
equilibrium Of the body-the balance
of the amount of nitrogen which
enters and the amount cast off by the
body.
This is basic because nitrogen Is
the element that enters into the
chemistry of the living substance,
protopasm, and makes it what it Is.
We take nitrogen into the body en-
tirely in the form of nitrogen in the
