HOSPITALSPLAN
 STUDY COURSES

Refresher courses for graduate nurses in connection with the na- tional defense program will begin soon in both the local hospitals Those enrolled in the courses will be instructed in the most recent techniques of nursing, but will be expected to give active service only in the event of an emergency.
 Both the Waterbury hospital and st. Mary's expect to enroll 20 grad utes nurses in these courses, which will last approximately 6 weeks. Similar classes for nurses will be given in the spring. The fall course will start about the first week in October.
 The local hospitals are eager to train more nurses now than ever before because of the growing popu- lation of Waterbury. and because Of the possibility, however remote. of an emergency in the hospitals res sulting from sabotage or an air raid it is announced. This problem of meeting hospital emergencies is at present under discussion at the annual convention of hospital sup erintendents in Atlantic City. which Miss Aida Greer of the Waterbury Hospital is attending.
 Both hospitals report increased enrollment this year over last year, with St. Mary's unable to provide for more student nurses next year unless an addition is made to the nurses' home. Waterbury hospital authorities plan to have . largei class next fall.

No depressing furnished room or pint-sized flat for today's bride and grooml Without years of saving they can move right into their own charming home.
 On the Federal Housing Admin istration's insured-loan plan you can make as little as $l250 @ year and buy o house built to sell for $2500. If FILA approves the con- struction of the house and finds you good risk, 1t expects only modest down payment.
 With & Title loan, that would be 6 per cent ($l25 on $2500). Then you'd pay of the loan like rent, about $25 monthly for l5 years.
 By building your own home you can also save on furniture. You can build in shelves, dressing tables, bookcases, wardrobe closets.
 Later, if you want to add an- other room or perhaps beautify the grounds, FILA has @ "moderniza- ton" loan plan, too.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS
Condition, of Nails

Many thanks for your help. My nails were SO brittle that they broke of and through the centre constant ly soon after I began supple menting my diet with the daily ra- tions of B-complex and D as you suggested, noticed Q change in the nail condition and in a few months my nails were as healthy as ever. My skin, too, looks so much better. (Mrs. w. R. T.)
 Answer-thank you. Tn some in. stances constant use of nail var11- ishes or tints is factor, but gen. nerally insufficient daily intake of the essential vitamin B complex and D seems to account for brittle. spooned, ridged, atrophied nails.
 Child Questions
 My daughter, aged years, Is be. ginning to ask questions-we were visiting a farm where a calf wss born. Where did the mother COW get her?' Did the angels bring her too?" (Mrs. T. P. R.)
 Answer - Write American Social Hygiene Association, New York, N. Y. for Some Information for some Information for Mother" or for Mother" or United States Public Health Service, Washington, D. C., for "T1ae Wonderful Story of Life"
 Bad Habit Corrected
 Let me add that some years ago took to heart your comments on the constipation habit and by following your suggestions succeeded in over coming the trouble completely.
 (W. M. S)

A WORD TO THE WIsEACREs ]
 A WASTE OF BREATH

&A WAS . Ef VIZ A4ASASAA 4 AA
 In your effort to be brilliant or witty you generally succeed in be- ing ambiguous or misleading, a correspondent points out. You may amuse certain readers whose in telligence is limited, but does that justify the confusion and the un- happiness your teachings bring to thousands of sufferers whose only offense Is that they have bod nerves? GA. R. H)
 As I have endeavored, however vainly, to make the sane reader uIl- derstand, the trouble with people who are certain their trouble is "bad nerves" weak nerves" "Ner- vous exhaustion" "neurasthenia" or whatever they prefer to call 1t, IS that they know more about the physiology and pathology of the nerves than physiologists and phy- sicians do. That is, the Glass B neurotics do. Glass A neurotics are amenable to reason. Now in order to make this clear I'll quote from the green book Nerves and Nutrition"
 Glass A neurotics are really i'll, that is, they have something the matter with one Or another organ or function, though 1t is usually not the brain, spinal cord or nerves that is affected
 "Class B neurotics are the gen. uine moochers who use their bad nerves as an alibi or Q means of escape from any and all of the
 trials and trihu!ations of life-they shove everything onto the shoul- ders of their associates, friends or relatives, in short they practice nervous imposition :"
 It was not this classification that brought the admonition of the cor- respondent. Instead, l had quoted a recognized authority's definition of the neurasthenic syndrome" (group of symptoms characteristic of the condition:
 Tension and irritable weak ness states, frequently alluded to as neurathenia and nervous ex- haustion, are manifested in com plaints of fatigahility, weakness and exhaustibility, head presSures, poor sleep, irritability, pains, sub-
 jectively poor memory and dlffl-
 culty with concentration the etiology (cause) of this condition
 is not clear ."
 Not clear Is right. That is the state of the authority's mind, and, I suspect, the state of mind of ev- cry medical writer or authority and every medical practitioner who in- agines there is any such thing as nervous energy, nervous exhaustion or weakness or reuraSthenia or ner- vous prostration. Of course many thousands of practitioners, special ists and charlatans still do imagine there is some such condition-aIld as long as they do, Class B neurotics will continue to get away with 1t,

 If she intends to keep right on taking sun baths through septem- Der as well as August, shell think twice before getting Q black dress, Smart as 1t is, black seldom Is really ilattering to suntanned arms and threats.
 This year, her first fall dress might very well be brown or green. Both of these colors are important. The second fall dress, purchased when the suntan is fading all too rapidly may be black.
 With suntanned skin and a brown dress, one of the brownish, coppery- red lipsticks and matching, brown ish-red nail lacquer are excellent ideas.
 with electric blue, red makeup that is bluish-red rather than vel low-red Is something to consider. Nail polish always ought to har- monize with lipstick.

GRADUALLY LIGHTENS HER FACE POWDER

Naturally, the smart woman sticks to her dark, suntan powder until her coat of suntan has dis. appeared. From time to time, as the suntan fades, she lightens her face powder by adding bit of last win- ter's supply to the present, dark, summer shade. Not until her com pleXion is back to its natural shade does she put aside dark powder.
 If she wants to continue to look tanned after her skin has become slightly bleached and therefore Q bit yellowish, she uses liquid powder in a suntan shade for few weeks or until her face and throat are white again. This Is Q trick that caught on last fall.
