 It will take years of education to impress this fundamental preventive measure upon the consciousness of the general public, but meanwhile the golden rule of hygiene should be followed as consistently as may be practicable in everyday business Tn many instances a transparent screen may be used for mutual pro- lection of executive or clerk and client or customer when a gauge mask would seem grotesque to the initiated.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 niahntaS

We have just discovered our son. aged 12. is diabetic. When we asked our doctor what vitamins the boy should have the doctor told us to pay no attention to the vitamin fad.
 (J. B. S. Answer-That is all right if the doctor instructed you how to insure an adequate daily ration of vitamifls for the child, despite the dietary re- strictions imposed. It is all wrong ii the doctor takes the attitude that vitamins are a fad, or if he imagines diabetic patients do not require vita min supplements for their restricted diet.
 Prunes Are prunes, said to have decided acid reaction, bad enough to exclude from ones diet. if one has found that by eating seven or eight prunes a day elimination is perfect without need for laxatives?
 (Mrs. H. w. G. Answer-Prunes yield alkaline ash. They contain a small amount of or ganic acid which may increase acid- ity in the urine (not in the b!od). By all means continue eating pruneS. Dried prunes are an excellent source or iron, vitamin A, calcium, potas- sium, vitamin B complex.

GOLDEN RULE OF HYGIENE
 IN BUSINESS


 Young man with mechanical gen. ius and vision, having developed a machine to the point of demonstrat- ing with working model, required the assistance of a former employer in enlisting the interest of some potential customers or users of the machine. The time the young man chose to call upon his former ern- ployer was unfortunate, for the young man was at a considerable disadvantage in describing his ma chine, due to the fact that he was coming down with what he apologet- ically called rotten cold" But that was not all. The former em- ployer, who might have taken far more than casual interest, re- trained from Investigating as care- fully aSshe would have done in more agreeable circumstances, because he feared he might catch the young mans alleged rotten cold"
 Here is a matter of strategy, ethics or acumen which increases in irn- portance as popular knowledge of hygine grows, yet 1t is either ignored altogether as dismissed with a face- tious word or two in most studies of the science and art of business.
 Now that we can mention it, con- versational spray infection consti- tutes a hazard in so many personal contacts that only the uninformed can fail to consider it.
 School teachers or principals in the past have in their ignorance and the ignorance of the public made it a working rule that pupils should not remain out of school for a mere cold" as they call it, but should try to come to school in spite of such slight indisposition, in order to maintain a good attendance record fo rthe school-which in part deter mines the school districts share of tax funds. Such rule may have been excusable in the past. No one of ordinary intelligence can uphold the practice today. It is a crime against the public health when any pupil, teacher, principal or other person with slight cold" or any, thing that purports to be cold ,' grip" or "core throat" or sinus or "laryngitis" has the temerity to come to school or to remain at work in school unmasked.

MAKE LINGERIE
 CASE SAME WAY

The lingerie case when finished measures 18 by g inches. Cut the 36- inch wide piece of chintz which measures 27 inches in half, so that it is 18 inches by 27 inches. Cut a piece of cotton padding the same size. Baste the motif and the cot- ton padding to the chintz as you did for the basket and stitch. Then baste the second piece of chintz wrong side out over the quilted piece and stitch around three sides, be- ginning at the 1S-inch side near the motif. Turn the case inside out, so that the quilting and the motif are on the outside. Stitch the fourth side. Fold this 18-inch edge up g inches and stitch so that 1t makes a pocket. The quilted end with the motif applique then forms a flap.
