I'VE, THE WOMEN-- Give Agathaa Break And No Label When You Introduce Her
WE, THE WOMEN

At any rate the newcomer is al- ready thinking of Agatha as a school teacher Cor nurse, or what ever)-not as just an attractive girl who might do anything or noth- ing for a living.
 If the hotess had bothered to wonder what Agatha would like to have said about her, she would have pointed out, Agatha is just back from a wonderful trip" or Agatha always has the lead in our Little Theater plays"
 SEE WHAT AGATHA
 PRIDES HERSELF ON
 It doesn't matter what hostess points out about Agatha, just so that she mentions the thing she brides herself on--the thing that shows her of to the best advantage and leaves her just girl not 8 woman identified with. a particular job.
 If all hostesses would be tactful about this there wouldn't be much excuse in the future for the con1- plaint that working women are for ever talking about their jobs.
 As things are, they talk about their work because they're froced into it-by friends who act on the theory that their jobs are the most l interesting thing about them.

Different Types of Tuberculosis in
 White and COlOred Persons The conductor of this column was astonished by the number of letters he received from readers who of- fered explanations for the extra ordinarily low frequency of active tuberculosis in the negro popula- tion of 8 district in Chicago where a total survey" was made by Dr. Frederic Tice and associates, of the Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium. The survey embraced, up to June 18, 1940, examinations of 10000 per- sons in the district, including mini | ature X-ray films of every person examined. Of the ten thousand, 8,942 were colored persons and 3.71 per cent of them were found to have active tuberculosis; of the $40 white persons 5.29 per cent were found to have active tuberculosis. Now the tuberculosis death rate per 100000 population in the entire city of Chicago in the year 1889 was more than eight times as great among colored as it was among l active tuberculosis among the col ored people in the district surveyed puzzled the dumb conductor. said I was stumped, and immediately six dozen readers came drumming to help me of the stump.
 Only one of them, so far, has made the apparent discrepancy clearer to NNAN iHNG TNHa tuberculosis specialist, writes:
 Dead Dr. Brady:
 A patient came to my office
 for a pneumothorax treatment
 and asked me to please answer
 your request for an explanation
 of Dr. Tice's findings in his "to-
 tai survey"
 To understand his finding of a low incidence of living negro
 tuberculosis cases in the pres ence of such high negro tuber-
 culosis death rate, we must take
 into consideration that the type
 of tuberculosis in the negro is
 different from the tuberculosis
 in the white population. The ne-
 gro develops acute or nasty
 tuberculosis (exudative and
 hematogenous). Whites develop
 the chronic (fibroiO type of the disease.
 The negro dies within year
 of the time that he develops tu-
 berculosis The white lives for
 several years with his tubercu-
 loSiS. For this reason total
 survey" in any area or district
 will disclose comparatively few
 living negro tuberculosis cases.
 they did off much faster.
 Very truly yours,
 What? We'll, anyway, when l read the doctors letter 1t seemed to settle the question, but now that I am involved in such fine ratiocination wouldn't know.
 Even if this explanation gets by the other readers who so kindly came to the rescue, there will still remain the more important question to be answered, namely, why is the type of tuberculosis more acute or nasty in the colored portion of the population than in the white?
 We are back to the question on which doctors have been speculat- ing for forty years or more-has the amount of ultraviolet the skin absorbs something to do with im- munity to tuberculosis? The ultra violet radiation activates sterols in the skin and produces viosterol, vitanlin D. Does the supply of vita min D determine the individuals ability to develop and maintain immunity to tuberculosis? Nobody knows, but perhaps that accounts

WOMAN,S REALM 2
GIOriting Yourself
nv Ancla HREt

Call it taste or call it talent, but the fact remains that the really chic women of the world have @ kind of sixth sense about clothes. It enables them to know what to buy and just the right month to buy it, where to wear it and, just as importantly, where not to buy it.
 Intentional or unintentional, " says the Jan. IS issue of Vogue magazine, "they have an l1nnistak- able clothes sense. And no two achieve results by the same means, |" TEN WHO MAKE
 FASHION NEWS
 Instead of making a list of best dressed women. Vogue names ten Americans who influence fashion. They are: the Duchess of Windsor, Countess Raughwitz- Reventlow, the former Barbara Hutton, Mrs. Rom aid Balcom, Mrs. Byron Foy, Lady Mendl, Mrs. Gilbert Miller, Miss Ina Claire, Mrs. Carroll CarstairS, Mrs. Harrison Williams and Mrs. Thomas Shevlin.
 The magazine points out that Ina Claire, important stage star, has in- fiuence on fashion because she is quick to discern the new, quick to adopt it. At the moment, she has discarded her pompadour for bangs. She likes to experiment, venture the untried.
 Mrs. Gilbert Miller abhors over- dressing or underdresSing and is a perfectionist about details. She likes conservative clothes, cares less about a first than 8 lasting impression.
 Mrs: Byron Roy, the former Thelma Chrysler, always looks as if she has stepped out of 8 band- box. No woman possibly could be more exquisitely groomed.
 The American-born Duchess ot Windsor has a worldly sense ot clothes and the courage of her con- victions. She is never undecided never distracted by passing tdiosyn- crasies. She knows how she wants to look.
 LAST RULE
 IS THE FIRST
 From the explanations of why Ina Claire, Mrs. Miller, and Mrs Foy and the Duchess of Windsor are so chic, it's easy to lay down foul rules for the rest of us. Here they are:
 CD. Be quick to discern the new CD. Care less about a first than 8 lasting impression. (3). Strive fol perfection in grooming. (4. Know how you want to look.
 Let's learn rule number 4 by heart meanwhile working hard at num- Der 3. From then on, development of the sixth sense ought at least tc be possible.

the average person going. In this respect nutrition is an exact science.
 Food consumption varies greatly with the degree of activity and the weight of the individual. A man weighing 150 pounds engaged in a secondary occupation needs 22OO to 2800 calories in A hours; light work 2800 to 5000 calories work re- quiring some muscular strength 5000 to $500 calories; work calling for severe muscular effort, 4000 to 5000 calories. Heavier men require more in proportion.
 Temperature has an effect on the amount of food needed, exposure to cold demanding more fuel. So during the winter larger amounts of calories are required.
 Tn the guide below, there is listed the fuel value in calories of various foods. The items are interchange able with others of the same class vegetable for vegetable, for example.
