Seal Campaign Is
Headed By Bishop
tuberculosis Still Leads As
Cause Of Deoth Between
Ages Of Is und As

Joseph H. Bishop, Executive Secre-
tary Of the Columbiana County Pub
lie Health League has been named
General Chairman of the 1910 Christ
mas Seal campaign, it was announced
today by DR.. Paul Beaver, President
of the organization.
This will be the 34th Christmas
season that voluntary workers have
cooperated with state and local as
sociations to raise funds to carry on
the nation wide campaign against tu-
berculosis. The campaign this year
opens on November % and extends
through Christmas.
Mr.. Bishop is choosing his commit
tee members, and plans for the entire
drive will be outlined within the next
few weeks.
"Columbiana County, like other COM
munities, has its tuberculosis prob
lem," said DR.. Beaver, "and at least
once year, we should intensity our
efforts to help solve the problem.
Tuberculosis still leads as cause
Of death between the ages Of Is and
is. Christmas Seals have helped fight
good fight, but as an enemy, the
disease is far from being vanquished.
This is the time to pile up more am
munition for further attack No home
is safe until all homes are safe"

All Aged Cldim Filers May
Transact Business At Home

Aged or infirm persons who wish to
file claims for old-age and survivors
insurance may transact their business
with the Social Security Board in
their own homes, it was announced to-
day by Glenn H. Pittenger, manager
of the Youngstown, Ohio, office of the
Board.
Recently our office has received
several inquiries as to how such per-
sons may file their claims, as they
could not walk and were without suit
able transportation. In such cases
we are glad to send representative
to the home of such claimants, or to
hospitals or other institutions in
which they are confined.
"While we expect all who can do so
will visit our main office or one Of
the five itinerant Offices which we op-
crate, we are prepared to make home
or institutional calls to receive claims
for old-age and survivors insurance,
where this is necessary. Persons who
wish such visits made should notify
us so that these calls may be made
in connection with other travel of
Social Security Board representatives.
"There is no charge for this service,
part of that given by our office in
serving the counties of Jefferson Ma
honing and Columbiana."

WOMEN IN INDUSTRY

A woman chemist with the aid Of
two male associates in the Bureau Of
Home Economics, |. S. Dept. Of Agrl-
culture has discovered a method Of
sterilizing wool fabrics which has
proved a boom to hospitals and dry
cleaners. Existing methods, such as
boiling and heating under pressure to
destroy organisms proved unsatisfac-
tory, so far much experimentation it
was found that by placing the wool
fabrics in a standard dry cleaning SOL
vent and heating it, it could be steril-
lied without damage to the tibers.

taken to an induction center.
3. Upon arrival at the induction

government insurancs-and make allot-

Then they are sent out to join their

Bio Cut Needed To
Hold Auto Deaths
A Total Of 1880 In the First
Nine Months Of This Year
Hos Been Reported

Chicago GLNS). - Traffic deaths
reached a total of 23,S30 in the first
9 months of this year, the National
Safety Council reports.
This was 1,5O0 greater than the
toll of 22,230 for the same period last
year-an increase of 7 per cent.
It's now or never, the council en-
phasized, if the nation wants to avoid
a bigger toll this year than last. TIC
hold the 1910 traffic deaths down tC
the 1889 level of 32,6C0, fatalities
must be cut Is per cent in the closing
months of the year.
The only way such reduction Is
possible, the council said, is for every
public official and every driver anC
pedestrian to dig in for last-ditcf
stand against death on the highway
The size Of this task is emphasized
by these facts:
/. The last months of the year are
the most hazardous and normally ac-
count for 80 per cent of the years
toll.
2. The accident trend has been uI
all year. The only month to show
a smaller traffic toll was July.
3. The increase has been nationwide
Only six of 80 states whose reports
are complete cut their toll in the first
nine months.
There is little doubt, the council
said, that much of the nine-month in
crease was due to more travel. AL
though the actual toll was up pei
cent, the death rate based on mileage
was up only 1 per cent. The mileage
increase was 6 per cent.

BABY TALK

A great danger lies in the regimen
ting of youth in thinking and train
ing. With an increasing number Of
years spent in school, there is level
ing off of individual thinking, for edu-
cation is mostly the taking over of
some one else's ideas.
Today the radio is doing much to
unity the thinking processes of both
adults and children. Practically all
the literary magazines are gone and
our news comes sifted and predigested
by radio commentators.
1t is the responsibility Of parents
to train their children to look at more
than one side of a situation at time
when so large a part of the population
read the same pictorial magazines,
see the same movies and hear the
same radio programs, then they will
be less likely to be swept off their
feet by mass emotion appeal

FOR BETTER HOMEMAhING

Green is one of the most restful
colors in interior decoration. The light
tints should be used for the walls and
the deeper shades for the floors or
draperies. But do not combine blue
green and yellow green in the same
room as they are not a happy COM
bination.
Protect your porcelain enamel sink
and drainboard with rubber mats if
you would make it last and remain
free from discoloration. Once porce-
lain is marred then practically moth
ing can be done to remedy the damage.
If you use a powdered cleanser see
that it is free of grit. Be sure to pro
tect your sink from acid fruit juices
which will ruin the finish.
