URGE COMPULSORY
CARE in 'TB' CASES

Compulsory disqualification of tu-
berculosis patients who refuse to en-
ter hospital voluntarily was urged
by Judge Charles l.. Brown, president
of the municipal court of Philadelphia,
at the joint meeting of the American
Society for the Study of Social and
Criminal Delinquency and the staff of
The Henry Phipps Institute, held in
Philadelphia.
"People who go around spreading
tuberculosis" said Judge Brown,
should be dealt with in the same
manner as those suffering from We
nereal diseases. They should be COM
PEELED to think not only of themselves,
but of the danger of contagion to
those with whom they come in con-
tact"
His recommendation followed a
statement by DR.. Esmond R. Long,
managing director of The Phipps In
stitute, that refusal of tuberculosis
patients to "retire from the commu-
nifty and accept hospital care consti-
tutes one of the most serious OBJ
stacles in controlling the disease"

DO YOU KNOW?

There are TX million women wage
earners in the nation, exclusive of
"the self-employed, professional or
professional workers." according
to recent Womens Bureau, U. S.
Department of Labor study.
Two out of every 10 of these women
manufacturing occupations. The MAX
ing of fabrics and clothing account
for we'll over half the women working
in factories. Those in the non-manu-
featuring group are engaged in the
various kinds of services such as Of
flee work, retail store selling, domes-
tic service in private homes and as
mattresses, scrub women and the like.
According to the bulletin, the vast
majority of women in the manufac-
turing field are under the federal
wage-hour law which is bringing
them real benefits.
Women in service trades while not
included under federal wage-hour
statutes can be helped and are being
helped by state wage and hour laws.
For example, in laundries which have
tended to pay low wages, women's
earnings are now being raised in %
states and the District of Columbia
where minimum wage orders have
been issued under existing statutes.
The same applies to women in hotels
and restaurants where in 13 states
and the District of Columbia their
wages have been raised by statute;
likewise in retail stores and beauty
shops in many states.
To date, women in household en-
ployment and agriculture are devoid
of any legal help.
Trade unionism as means Of i'm
proving conditions for women has had
the most conspicuous results in cer-
tain branches of the clothing indus
try, to lesser extent in others, while
union organization is practically non
existent among domestics or farm
workers.

Baby Talk

Be wise mother. Don't fail to
include enough calcium-an important
health builder in your childs diet. To
accomplish this, see that each child
gets quart of milk daily to drink,
in or on cereals or in cooked foods.
You can achieve the same food value
for less money by using canned, evap-
Grated or dried milk.
Try making thrifty milk soups of
beans, corn, potatoes, peas, fish. Make
deserts of rice or bread pudding, GUS
tards, ice cream, blanc manges, ETC.,
to supply the needed calcium.

Here's to Glamour

The trend is still toward flowers in
the hair for evening, but wear them
when they seem to go naturally. They
should compliment the costume if
worn on the shoulder and never break
the line-but wear them on the wrist,
or in the hair if they don't look well
on the dress.
Any flower nowadays will make a
corsage but violets, gardenias and or
chids have been the favorite for years.
o
The hurry and scurry of modern life
is very hard on women's nerves. You
get tense dozens of times every day
and by late afternoon you grow con-
scious that this tenseness has begun
to show in your face, and tiny lines
of strain and fatigue shadows under
your eyes. That is the time to take
20 minutes of complete relaxation to
achieve restorative which will re-
claim your vivacity and freshness
Moisten sterilized eye pads in warm
water and place over eyes while rest
ing.
Make this rest period daily habit
Not only will you feel better and look
better each evening but this regular
repose taken at the time of day wher
you have begun to call upon your re
serve strength will play an important
part in the course of the years il
prolonging youth far beyond it:
usual span.
When nails are dry, soften then
with hot oil treatments, buff then

junct of glamour.

For Better Homemaking

Newspapers make an excellent filler
for cracks. The process is as fol-
lows tear papers into shreds, put
them in bucket of water, and boil
them for an hour or more, stirring
frequently. This will reduce the paper
to pulp. After squeezing the pulp
as dry as possible with the hands,
cram it into the spaces to be filed. 1t
will dry hard. And when dry, it can
be painted or vanished.

Labor Women

Women played lead part in the
tremendously successful and striking
ceremonies surrounding the Presi-
dents birthday cake, contributed to
the President by the Bakery and Con-
fectionery Workers International
Union.
The Misses Gilmore Myrup, Mari
lou Winter and Elsie Schmidt, daugh-
ters of the three leading offio ais of
the Bakery Workers International,
flew from Chicago to make the presen-
tation. With the 300-pound cake
right in the Presidents office, the
young ladies, introduced to the Presi-
dent by William Green, made the
presentation as Representatives of the
union.
While in Washington they were
taken on a round of ceremonies and
parties, all of which played part in
building good will for labor.
Interesting touch in the presenta-
tion was the Presidents statement
that while he had cards in many
unions, he had none in the Bakery
Workers. 'I'll see to that" was the
prompt rejoinder of Miss Myrup.
These young women were guests of
honor at reception given by Presi-
dent Green and attended by some
1000 Washington labor men, Sena-
tors, Congressman and other public
officials.
The women surely scored in this
big event.
