Reservoir Of Human
Power Estimated al
in U. 5.
Public Health Service
Figures Give Data on
Work-Fieht Resources
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.


The United States has q reservoir
Of about 55,0O0,000 men and women
between 20 and IS years old who are
able to work or fight.
Such is the estimate Of the United
States Public Health Service, based
on census figures and the state of
health revealed by the national
canvass of 100000 families in SO
cities.
The survey now is two years old |
but the general picture is believed |
/ to be essentially unaltered. The CAL |
culations have been made by David
E. Hailman, public health statisti-
clan
There are approximately 1924
230 men between the ages of 20 and
35 in the population. Mr.. Hailman
estimates that about 10000 are COM
pletely disabled. 260 900 have diseases
which will disable them from three
weeks to twelve months. 10000 have
diseases disabling them less than
three weeks, 100000 have minor
chronic diseases, 100000 without
chronic diseases are disabled from
three weeks to three months. and
100000 from one to three weeks.
This leaves 13,50O,000 apparently In
good health.
Not All Soldier Material.
This does not mean they could
pass Army examinations. Such dis
abilities as poor teeth, slight deaf
ness, poor eyes or personality de-
fects are not considered. They may
make a man liability as 4 soldier
but need not detract from his ability
to work.
There are approximately 22,581,-
5S5 men between ages Of SO and 65-
the great reserve of industrial man
power.
OF these, 1t is estimated on the
basis of the survey, there are: Per-
manently incapacitated, $4,000;
victims Of major chronic diseases
disabled to such an extent that they
have not been able to work regularly
for a year or more, $4,000; victims
OF major chronic diseases who re-
main at work, 2.730000; persons In
some degree disabled by minor
chronic diseases, 1,5s0,0 and per-
sons who lost at least seven days
in 1910 because Of illness. $4,000.
This leaves about $500 900 ap-
parently able to give a full days
work every day
During the World War there was
a large movement of women into
the factories and this might happen
again.
Women's Force Estimated.
Latest estimates are that the
country has 1882 e37 women be-
tween ages OF 20 and IS and 21, ,743,-
1873 from IS to 65.
The Public Health Service statisti-
clan estimates that approximately
77,000 in the younger group and
$50 900 in the older are permanently
incapacitated.
Between 20 and IS, approximately
$500 900 and between IS and IS at
least 100000 have one or more
chronic diseases or impairments. An
additional 100000 in the younger
group and 100000 in the older
group do not have any chronic
diseases to their knowledge, but each
has had during the year chronic
illness lasting a week or more
This leaves about $4,000 900 who
might be available for full-time

Then she knew knew why she
had been driven to seek him out

fled from the Turf Ball boldly in

practically had forced her way
into his house.
Mark had been puzzled by her
motive. too. and when he had
questioned her. she felt suddenly
confused She hadn't been able
to answer truthfully. even to her
self. But now she knew. She was
in love with him
The sudden realization brought
glow which sent the blood tin
Cling through every vein in her
body. Love was the explanation
not curiosity. as she had sup
posed.
She thought she must have
fallen in love with him when she
first saw him on the train. II
must have been love that had so
sharpened her perception that she
saw clearly the deception that men
who had known Joe Raymond for
years had failed TO see.
Busy with her excited discovery
she lost all track OF time and dis
lance and she started up as though
awakened from sound sleep
when she felt Murph's hand on her
arm and heard his voice saying.

FOUR BASIC RULES
FOR MODELS
The Conover models all picked
for their brains as well as their
beauty are given four rules to
follow the day they are accepted
for registration.
l. Get a little more sleep each
night than you think you need.
Otherwise. you cannot expect to
stay young and fresh-looking.
2. When you are nervous in
front Of the camera, talk to the
photographer about anything in
the world except yourself. you
can gain quite lot of poise by
remembering that the photogra-
pher is likely to be more nervous
than you He's as anxious TO
make a good picture as you are TO
strike a good poise)
3. Be yourself. And be yourself
all the time. Posing as something
you are not will get you exactly
nowhere in the model business.
I. Learn all there is to know
about the art of makeup. Go to
an expert and let him teach you
what cosmetics to use and how to
/ get them on. Don't arbitrarily

ture must be concealed It's pos
