SALT NECESSARY
TO COMFORT AND
WELL BEING
Considered A Corrective And
Preventative Measure A.
gainst Heat Exhaustion

Here is bit of hot weather advice
from DIR. R. H. Riley, Director of the
State Department Of Health:
"On these hot muggy days." he
said, "when you perspire a lot and
begin to feel exhausted, drop a pinch
of table salt into a glass of cool
water, not ice-cold-and drink it
slowly. You. can repeat this as often
as you please. It is a reliable pick
up against heat exhaustion.
"There is good scientific basis for
the use of salt-ordinary table salt
both as a corrective and preventive
of heat exhaustion. When we per-
spire profusely-as we usually do in
intense heat-the system loses a great
deal of salt. The salt solution helps
to replace it.
Psychologists have always known
that excessive perspiration drains the
system of some of the salt that is so
necessary to comfort and well-being.
The dizziness, prostration, muscular
cramps, and other systemic disturb
ances associated with heat exhaustion
frequently suffered by workers en-
ployed in industries under conditions
of intense heat, have long been mat
tiers of concern to employers and
health authorities. The brilliant idea
occurred to somebody to try the salt
solution as a first aid measure in
some of these cases Of heat prostra-
ton. It worked. And the next step
was to put it into regular use as a
preventive.
"For the convenience of persons
who object to the taste Of the sailed
drinking water, it is now possible to
obtain the salt in the form of tablets
usually five to seven grain tablets,
combined with small amount of dex-
trose. Automatic dispensing mach
ines similar to those used for candy,
have been installed close to the drink
ing fountains in many industries.
You press a button and a tablet drops
out. The tablet is easy to swallow,
and any leftover taste disappears
after taking drink of water.
Industries in which the salt is sup
piled, and used as matter of routine,
report a marked decrease in the cases
of heat prostration among their en-
ployees. The remedy is SO simple that
it can be readily used in any threat
ened case of heat exhaustion. The
amount of salt in the tablets would
just about cover the tip of a spoon
literally just pinch. Try it, the next
time we strike heat wave."

OPENING CHESTERTOWN
CANNERIES IN DOUBT

Since a statement was made last
week that the Chestertown Cannery
would open July goth, Federal and
State authorities have thrown a
wrench in the machinery. Recent
Federal labor regulations require a
Csc an hour minimum wage at the
Chestertown plant being in a town Of
over $500 population, which is con-
sidered prohibitive due to the price
Of the tomato pack.

LARGE FORCES
TAKE THE FIELD
FOR HOSPITAL
An Army Of Five Hundred Men
And Women In Campaign
For $15O,OOO
MONEY TO BE USED FOR
ENLARGING HOSPITAL

An army of 500 men and women
will take the field shortly in the cam
paign to raise more than $150,000 to
end the overcrowding at Peninsula
General Hospital. This will be life
bestowing army instead of the usual
Understanding one. It will be COM
posed of about 1926 officers and pri-
Yates from Salisbury and about 175
from an outside area of about 40
miles radius, which normally takes
full advantage of the hospitals SER
vice.
The army will be divided equally
between men and women. At Sails
bury, for instance, there are five divi-
sions entirely of women, headed by
five women majors and with woman
commander, Mrs. Walter S. Sheppard.
The men have a similar organization
led by DR.. Jefferson D. Blackwell,
head of State Teachers College there.
There will be four divisions for the
districts outside of Salisbury. These
will handle: Division A: Delmar; Divi-
sion B: Pocomoke and Princess Anne;
Division G.: Berlin and Ocean City;
Division D: Allen, Fruitland, Newark
and Snow Hill. Other battalions will
be conferred in numerous other points
ranging between Chincoteague, Va,
and Bridgeville, Del.
There will be vice-chairman as
commander for these outside divisions,
a major heading each division, five
captains under each major and five
volunteer. solicitors for each captain.
The Today intensivce period of the
campaign, when this army will bring
up it's heavy artillery, is expected to
begin July 9th and to continue until
August z. The first meeting of the
Salisbury captains was held Monday
night at the Wicomico Hotel, when
William S. Gordy, Jr., campaign chair
man, in talk said:
every dollar collected will go direct
ly into the fund to enlarge the hos
pital. Not a dollar solicited will be
used to pay any operating expenses.
Not dollar will be used to run the
want to emphasize that
every cent will be invested in an en-
larged hospital for the Peninsula"
He pointed out that Peninsula Cen
eral Hospital is just what its name
Indicates Peninsula and not city
hospital. "This hospital happens to
be located in Salisbury, but it normal
ly serves a radius of 40 miles. Pa
tents too come from every state in
the union. The entire Eastern Shore
is served as routine by Peninsula Cen
eral Hospital"
Among the various meetings sched-
uled for the next week in Delmarva
in connection with the hospital are two
on Tuesday, July 25. One will be
joint meeting of the Rotary and Lions
at a dinner at Pocomoke where Mr..
Gordy will talk; and another Rotary
dinner at Princess Anne where Brady
Dayton, hospital superintendent, and
former Judge Robert F. Duer, hospital
will speak.
DR.. L. A. Rademaker has arranged
to go to both meetings to show his
films of overcrowded conditions, with
beds in Railways and with rooms and
wards packed.

YMCA .SOFTBALL.

Four teams are scheduled to com pete in the Central lily Indoor Softball league tonight. At 6:30, the Beta come up against the Crusaders and ct 7:l5, the Cadets meet the Waterville club.
 This league, run as a double elim- nation tournament, is rather unique as the length of the games is de- termined the time rather than by the usual innings. This Is due to the fact that the boys have a limit ed time in which to play each eve- ming. The regular three outs are given and the teams change from the field to batting as usual. The games start at given time, and finish at set time. When time is up, no matter which side is at bat. or how many outs there are, the game Is over. This type of game makes for very fast play as both teams are anxious to get up at bat as often as possible and to stay at oat as long as they can.
