EvERYBODY's TUBERCULOSIS

EVEKYBODY'S TUBERCULOSIS
 An instructive folder distributed by the National Tuberculosis Asso- citation describes SIGNALS" which if needed, will save thousands of youth or young adults from devel- oping active tuberculosis. Probably seven out of ten adolscents (persons in their 'teers) harbor latent or sn1ouldering foci of tuberculosis in the lymph nodes. The great major ity of these develop sufficient irn- munity to prevent the tuberculosis from becoming active, provided they live under fair hygienic conditions. Infancy and early childhood is the time of primary infection, the tu- bercle bacilli entering the body either by way of the aliinentary tract Gin food or in dust or other contaminated matter SwalloweO or by way of the respiratory tract (droplet or psray infection, through close or intimate contact with some one who has active pulmonary tu- berculosis). Youth is the time of approximation, which overwhelms the immunity produced by the pri- mary infection and causes the dis ease to become active and impair health or produce illness. The immunity conferred by the primary infection in infancy or early childhood ("everybody has a little tuberculosis") is not strong enough to overcome a very large or virulent or too frequently repeated infection. The vital thing is to avoid approximation in late childhood and youth. .S
 Routine tuberculin tests (skin tests) of school children, and search ing chest examinations, together with X-ray examinations of all chil- dren who react to the test, is per- haps the most effective prophylaxis against active tuberculosis, aside from knowledge and obedience to the laws or rules of good hygiene.
 The late revered Dr. Delaney Rochester, great medical teacher, impressed upon his students the more common modes of onset of lung tuberculosis by presenting typical cases in a group nj his clinic, and these cases served to fix in- delibly in the medical students mind the fact that cough and sore- ness or chest symptoms of any de- scription may be entirely missing from the patients own complaint or history and not unlikely the pa- tient will give negative answers to the physicians leading questions about such symptoms. Instead, the young person with incipient pull monary tuberculosis --t that Is the earlies stage of active tuberculosis in the lung-comes under medical observation in the beginning

 Yourself
By Alicia Hart

To score a bull's-eye in the beauty tournament this spring, Miss 1887 has to aim at femininity plus. It's 8 newly feminized glamor era that has overwhelmed us, with curve revealing fashions, fragile looking accessories and cultures that are pretty as well as chic.
 Naturally, the makeup and groom ing have to be in keeping. And the figure, too, for the ideal is to be slender without the least bit of scrawny angularity, trimness with out a hint of mannishness, health mess of gorgeous, hower-like kind.
 Tone Down Makeup
 She uses makeup artistically, avoids pseudo-sophisticated effects such as eyeshadow in the daytime, or vivid nail polish unless it points up a specific costume. She keeps her hat on in public places, wears gloves on the street and minds her manners as her mother taught her to do. Hands ought to be snow-white with delicately colored nails.
 If your face powder doesn't ex- actly match your skin. it ought to be shade lighter. Dark powders are out.
 See that the color you use makes the complexion look glowingly alive fairly sparkling. After you have smoothed on foundation cream or lotion, lavishly powder face and throat. Let it set, then whisk of the excess. This way, you wil lstay per- fectly powdered for hours.
 Keep rouge high on cheek bones and do use shade which makes cheeks the color they should be If they were naturally pink. All makeup is supposed to dramatize your natural beauty, so get shade of rouge that matches your blood tones.
 Keep hair up-to give your neck and brow clean-cut, neat look. Chose sweet, fresh rather than heavy, exotic perfumes, and use them sparingly.
 Be immediately groomed, with heels and stocking seams straight, clothes carefully pressed, collars and cuffs white as snow. Remove scthray hairs on eyelids and across bridge of nose, but don't pluck eye brows into hard. thin, unnatural lines.
 Plan to exercise and brush your hair regularly. Eat more sensibly, substituting green salads and fresh vegetables for rich desserts and heavy, starchy foods. Get adequate sleep. Glamor really counts this spring and the foundation of glamor and beauty is health.

 Mrs. James E. Boyd of Atlanta, Ga, boasts that she escaped dolnes- tic science training in both high school and college-but she learned from the farnily's colored cook, and she is fond of her college professor husband. Here's her soup entry - and 1t comes in cans: Clear Chicken Soup with AvacadO

The Family Doctor
To Get Leprosy, Close, Prolonged
 Contact With Leper Is Necessaro

, of Molokai, of Father Bogliolo in New Orleans, and Sir George Turn CT in Pretoria.
 The average person need give litle, if any, consideration to pro- tecting himself or his family from leprosy unless he happens to be wis., 1tiag abroad in a territory where leprosy is prevalent, or is in contact with leperS in this country. Indeed, some authorities feel that it would be just as safe to give the average leper freedom to circulate in a com munity as it would be to allow Sim- liar freedom to a person with an open case of tuberculosis.
 Nowadays, most of our states have laws regulating the movements and activities of people with leprosy, Most of the cases in the United States, as has already been men, tioned, are collected in the sanitar- ium in Louisiana.
 When I visited this sanitarium some time ago. I found the pa- tients unusually cheerful for peo- pie that are hospitalized. Many of them engaged in industrial work. They enjoy radios and motion pie lures. Their surroundings are beautiful; their roms are commo- uiouS, and everything possible is done to make their existence livable.
 From time to time, new ad- vances in the treatment of leprosy have been announced in various places. The most recent was the use of chaulmoogra oil, but, most authorities are not yet convinced that this is of any real value in either the prevention or treatment of the disease. Leprosy, like some other diseases, is featured by long periods in which the condition does not progress, and then by a sudden speeding up which may re- suit in serious manifestations.

 Medical Association, and of

 iLeprosy once was the most feared of all diseases. Today, in the United States, at least, It is unimportant as cause either of sickness or of death. In Carville, La, the United States maintains leproSarium, and more than 450 lepers have been in this institution since it was first es- tablished in 1921.
 In 1926 only one person under 20 years of age died of leprosy in this country, and in 1927 and 1928 no one under 20 died of this disease.
 The condition, nevertheless, is fre- quent in other parts of the world, particularly in Hawaii and the Philippine Islands.
 LeproSy is caused by a germ which is carried from one person to another either directly or else on soiled articles. Occasionally, no doubt, it is transmitted by flies or other insects. Men are affected about twice as often as are women.
 Leprosy will attack the skin and the nervous system, producing ulcers and other serious manifestations.
 Leprosy is so dreaded that it is easy to create scare concerning it in any community. Frequently false rumors are circulated that mattress es have been stuffed with hair from lepers or that bedding contaminated with lepers' secretions has been im- ported. Once there was an absurd rumor spread about Chicago that it was not safe to swim in Lake Mich 1gan because two leopards with spots had been found bathing in the water.
 The average leper is not exceed 1hgly dangerous to anyone who hap pens to pass him on the street. Or dtnarily, close and prolonged contact with leper, if it is held, is nec- SsSary to contract the disease. Nevertheless, there are records of doctors, nurses. and other workers with lepers who have become infect cd. There are the cases, for instance of Father Damien on the Island

Famous Sayings =

The triumphs of the last genera
tion we're chiefly concerned with
devising new goods and services to
make life easier and safer. This
generations problem apparently is
to find some way of making these
devices available to people who lack
the money to buy them.
Nowhere has this been emphasiz-
ed so strongly as in speech given
before the American Public Health
Association recently by Josephine
Roche, assistant secretary of the
treasury.
Miss Roche revealed that there
is direct and tragic relationship
between the death rate and the
annual income.
Between 100000 and $4,000, 900
Americans get along on incomes
of less than $1,000 year, said Miss
Roche. Their death rate from the
10 major diseases which cause rs
per cent of the deaths in the
United States is twice that of the
rest of the population.
For seven of these 10 diseases,
she said, the death rate mounts
steadily as the income goes down.

C.C.C. WILL HAVE LASTING BENEFIT
(POrterville RecOrder)

The Civilian Conservation Corps, which under
legislation enacted this last summer is to be
extended for three years with maximum strength
of 100000 young men and World War veterans,
has begun its first replacement enrolment pro-
gram since the new law was passed. AT the
moment, the CCC is reported below 100000 In
enrolled personnel, due to the expiration OF
terms of enlistment and discharge of men to
accept private employment, and now about 100,-
600 youth and 5000 veterans are to be given the
opportunity to enroll.
Through the pitfalls of changing government
policies, the criticisms of skeptics and the re-
puted dangers of possible exploitation by militar-
lists, the CCC has continued to perform worthy
service. 1t has given hosts of young men jobs
to do decent places in which to live and the
opportunity of providing certain financial assis-
tance to their home folks. In the minds OF many
Americans it has earned place as perhaps the
best of all numerous alphabetical agencies, in
purpose and in practical accomplishment.
Wide interest, naturally, aroused by the
proposal that the CCC be made a permanent in
stitution and be recognized as complement to
our national defense" That plan carried to its
logical conclusion, probably would mean for one
thing, that every boy seeking CCC advantage
would thereby become subject to the Governments
right to call him out for military service. Il
seems likely, too that the duties which the CCG
regularly performs in conservation and construc'
ton projects would have to be curtailed some.
what to allow for the teaching of the basic prin-
ciples of Army practice.
From the inception of the effort to make the
CCC permanent affair, it seemed evident that
the idea did not have the blessing of the Ameri-
can public. The CCC accepted depres-
sion emergency measure, and its continuation
as long as the emergency exists has appeared
prudent The increasing opposition to the perma-
nency plan and insistence upon keeping the CCC
on the existing basis until it can be disbanded
indicated that in this matter at least the Nation
knew just how far to go with good thing.
