Closing tho health book for the year Is no different than balancing a financial account provided health items on the red side of the ledger are admitted and plans 50 formu. lated that in the future these health debitS can be transformed into health credits, Elizabeth c. Nicker- son. asserted in the weekly broad- cast of the State Department of Health. Adoption and earnest ad- herence to New Years resolutions designed for healthier living was urged with the following pertinent suggestions
 Health First
 I shall take account of my health by consulting my physician for Q thorough physical examination and follow his instructions aS to any dc. fects that need correcting.
 1 shall rearrango my time SO it will more nearly conform to e hoalthful balance of eight hours sleep and rest, eight hours work and eight hours recreation and eS-' erclSe.
 T shall not be unduly alarmed about my health but will adopt hy- gienic rules of living as to oleanli. ness. relaxation, outdoor exercise, healthful eating habits and eiimina. ton which science has shown to Dc essential to health.
 1 shall refuse to Do influenced by pseudo. .health teachers whose dy- manic presentation of alleged health facts present pitfalls for tho unwary,
 shall watch hny leisure time ae. tivitles lest the pleasure of tho mos tnent unduly influence my activities, to the end that interesting hobbies contact with friends, the reading Of worthwhile books and outdoor rccre- ation are not neglected.
 Time Is no reSpector of persons it dispenses just so many minutes hours. days. weeks and months and treats everybody alike. To obtain best health results, according to Miss NLskerson, time should be budgeted by dividing 1t in thirds, eight hours for sleep and rest. eight hours for work, eight hours for leisure--meals reading. receratlon, exercise and so- cial contacts. If one-third in- croaches on the others. such as rob- ping sleep time for extra work or recreation, sooner or later health penalties must be paid. These losses may be indicated by more illness than usual during the year although for only e day or two at a time.
 Leisure Time
 The quality of leisure time also makes It's ipdelible mark, Miss Nick. erson pointed out. If we ride that hobby so hard that 1t is made a task. or if excessive exercise taxes endurance beyong strength, or il desire for activity is lost by yield Ing to the soft luxury of the easy chair, or if mental capacity is dulled by poor caliber of reading, or fl we shun our fellowmen and live for ourselves alone, we are interfering with the opportunity to make time

With the subnornlal business rec ord oi the "Trouhlesome Thirties' behind 1t, American business enters i940 hopefully but with the realiSa- ton that the major economic prob- lens of the past 10 years are still present because we have ignored the fact that lin all of our crises of the past we attained recovery by accept- ing the penalty for the economic follies that had brought us trouble.
 we worked our way out, Govern ment was not expected to alleviate our every suffering"
 Tn those words, Henry H, Heimann, executive manager, National Associ- ation of Credit Men, summarizes for his associationS 10000 banking, manufacturing and wholesaling members in his Monthly Review of Business, released yesterday, the events that have influenced business during the past decade,
 After pointing out that "in the early days of the depression too much was made of the psycholog- ical factors and too little of the eX- iStence of real economic problems" the credit executive outlines some of the matters which concerned bus mess and government during that period
 "The farm board Great Britain's S departure from the gold standard, a public works program, 0 two billion dollar national deficit, the railroad problem, banking legislation, hoard- ing, lack of investment, the original REC -- these topics made the head lines,
 Look at the list again and We see that substantially the same topics are still making headlineS--nearly a decade later
 Problems unSolved
 Most of the problems of the world today trace back to the un- willingness of the people of the world to recognize that the first World War created such tremen- deus maladjuStments that a return to normalcy without certain neces- SdlS puAllW lSoNJuetiNAAtS Noc Sihh- ply impossible" he states,
 "palllativeS, uneconomic nostrums paternallstic attitude, selfish mon- etary policies, nationalistic develop men,s--all these had one objective in view; to avoid paying for the economic sinS committed during the years of armed conflict,
 Yet a sound recovery can never be attained unless we are willing to do penace for these economic sins, That is the price of economic SalVa- ton; that is the price that sooner CT later will be CXaeted.
 Negative Philosophy
 ehe greatest liability thaC we face ia ai0 Is neither the staggering am .up, of debt nor the capitalization situation nor the class prejudiosS that may have developed but, rather, tho philosophy which helped shape these liabilities,
 To bring the nation to more conservative way of thinking, to de- velDp more peaceful atmosphere h our mutual relationships is, 0 task that cannot be accomplished in . year But even in this respect some

RECRUITS PRAISE
 LIFE IN U.S 5. ARMY
Headquarters Files Letters of Appreciation From En.
 thusiastic Rockies, Vets

Voluntary letters from men who have recently enlisted In the United States Army continue to pour Into Corps Headquarters at the Army Base, Boston. These result largely from the enthusiasm of the new re- oruitS upon discovering for them. selves what the inside of the Army is like. New regiments being form. cd offer exceptional opportunity for rapid advancement and the young men who arc joining now have the rare privilege of choosing the branch Of service which appeals to them, to say nothing Of tho climate in which they prefer to serve.
 Francis ], Grady Of 42 Newconb St.. Haverhill, Mass, who enlisted four weeks ago for the Engineers is finding Army life very much to his liking as his letter indicates. Pri- vate Grady Is well liked In his com pany and has made many warm friends. Ills letter follows;
 "The various phases of Army life are both interesting and instructive. | WuS uiltCVuuHlteQ NltIl NIlt opleUs did ways and means the Service has Of transforming Q young man from q non essential, everyday sort of person into a strong, hardy. self efficient person capable of looking out for himself
 ! have found the living condi- tons for recruits very good The barracks where we rest and sleep are kept clean and neat and are warm and comfortable at all times. Showers are available to the re- cruitS with plenty of hot water. The food they are serving here Is good and plentiful, the same as at home, and nobody goes hungry here at re- cruit school.
 Taken all in all. my life as a re- cruit in the United States Army has been instructive, interesting and healthy. I have no regrets at hav- ing enlisted for Q period of three years. The non-commissioned off, ficers are good instructors, experi- enced in their work and fair in their dealings with us recruits.
 To sum it all up, I can think of no better life for a young man than the United States Army"

progress is being made, for people are beginning to weigh the conse- Quences of past actions more Seri- olisly.
 Although business hopes for Q prosperous year for i040 seem as- Sured, unless some unforeSeeable barrier should intervene, we will not have an unhealthy boom but instead reasonable increase over the l936 record.
