Job Dictionary Gives Uniform
System Of Classification

Managers of the offices of the
Maryland State Employment Service
throughout the state attended a three
day meeting in Baltimore where the
use Of the new Job Dictionary was
discussed. NJ. w. Mann, manager of
the Oakland office, attended.
The job Dictionary is the culmina-
ton Of several years Of work by eX-
perts in the bureau of Employment
Security, Mr.. Mann said, and repre-
sents the most comprehensive attempt
to introduce a uniformity of occupa-
tional classification into both public
and private employment.
The need for a uniform system of
occupational classification is especial
ly evident at this particular time
when a decided pickup in employment
in heavy industries is anticipated.
The coding system which is a part
Of the new classification plan will per-
nit employment managers to locate
persons of a given skill in one indus
try for ready transfer to another,
when the similarity between the two
is not readily discernible in their res
pective titles.

medical scientist would have the nerve to offer 1t to lay audience. Don't worry about any pneumo- cocci or streptococci your nose or throat may harbor all the time. Rather consider how to dodge the bacteria that come your way in the conversational spray of the scoun- drel who has "a slight cold" and in- sists on sharing 1t with you. Such germs are in the pink and ready to do their damnedest if they gain a foothold in your nose or throat.
 Nervous Spells
 Since starting school my 16-year- old daughter has had nervous spells that keep her out of school for days at time. What do you advise?
 (Mrs. P. W. L. AnsWer--I have no idea what the trouble can be. You should place her under medical care.
 Wheat Germ
 Do you think 1t is all right for @ person who had stomach ulcer some years ago to eat raw wheat germ?
 "A. S,) Answer-Yes, provided the wheat germ is fresh--not more than two or three weeks old. Cooking destroys only part of the vitamin B complex in wheat germ, however, so cook 1t If you can't take 1t raw. The less cooking the better.
 Fancy Sugar
 If a person takes some deXtrose before hard physical effort will 1t increase his endurance? (H. R) Answer-Tt may, but not more ef- Actively than would the same amount of ordinary sugar in any form, as in candy. or sweetened beverage, milk, fruit, juice, cake, sweet chocolate.

WOMAN,S REALM
.Glorying
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer

NEA Service Stan Writer
 Within the past week several readers have asked for directions for an egg shampoo to be given at home. Here they are:
 First of all, drop one large fresh egg into a cup and whip it lightly with a fork Add one-half tea spoon of fresh, strained lemon juice and set the cup within easy reach of the wash bowl in which you in tend to shampoo your hair.
 GIVE HAIR
 GOOD BRUSHING
 Now brush hair and scalp for sey- eral minutes. Then, using very warm water and a liquid shampoo (you can make your own shampoo by dissolving small pieces of bland soap in warm water), give your hair one good soaping and thorough rinsing. Be sure that water for the final rise is tepid-not hot.
 Now pour the whipped egg and lemon juice mixture over your head With thumb and fingertips, massage the egg into scalp. Keep on massaging for at least five min utes, adding few drops of tepid water whenever the mixtrue seems to be getting dry and stiff. After ward, rinse with a hand spray un- til not e trace of egg remains and your hair "squeaks" when you run i your hands through it..
 NEVER RINSE
 WITH HOT WATER
 If you do not have hand spray, at least four rinsings in 6 bowl are required. Either way, by all means use tepid water for rinsing. Hot water will cook the egg.
 If possible, brush your hair in the sunshine until 1t is dry. Other wise, set 1t in loose, wide waves and ringlets pinned flat to the head un- til dry.
 To get the most benefit from a hot oil treatment, vigorously mas sage hot olive oil into hair and scalp the night before you intend to wash your hair, pin a clean towel around your head and 90 to bed. Next morning., shampoo in the regular manner, soaping at least three times and rinsing four.
