Are you a 'manana-girl" where brushing your hairs concerned |. tomorrow will do, and I'll do 1t to- morrow?
 If so, there's your answer to the oily condition of your scalp, quite possibly. For the oil glands secrete oil at the roots, and 1t can accumu- late there, and also all along the length of the hair.
 If you have neglected. brushing for long time, and then you brush enc or two nights, then skip-that is a really fine way to have oily hair. For brushing may stimulate the glands to pour out more oil than usual, at first.
 The answer iseregular brushing, This prevents the piling up of sey- eral days supply of the natural oil, keeps the hair and scalp healthy, When the hair is over-oily, be sure to wipe your brush frequently on a towel while you're brushing.
 Gentle shampoos are indicated for oily hair. About once week is the right frequency. And of course you must remember that your rinsing technique is every whit as important as your cleaning. You might try using liquid soapless shampoo which has hair conditioner added, for nothing aggravates the hfelessness of oily hair so much as film of soap.
 If you rinse in a bowl, do so at least three times; if you have hand spray or shower, do useI The running water is your surest, sim plest means of carrying away every trace of shampoo.
 GIVE YOUR BRUSH
 THREE WEEKS TRIAL
 Oily hair may, of course, be a symptom of a scalp condition re- quiring expert treatments. It may, too, be the result of poor general health. oMre often, however, 1t is the simple consequence of neglect ing that nightly brushing.
 Try a hundred-strokes-a-night, every night, for three weeks, and then if you haven't glistening tresses, better check with your fam lily physician. Use the very best brush you can afford, with bristles that are firm but not too stiff.

POTASSIUM AND ASTHMA

POTASSIUM AND ASTHMA
 Tn the preceding talk about asth- ma I said that an adequate intake, assimilation and utilization of cal- cium is often prophylactic or corr rective for the tendency to asthma. A sufficient daily supply of vitamin D. is essential for normal assimila- tion and utilization of calcium,
 This does not mean that calcium and vitamin D will relieve an at- tack of asthma.
 For a relief of an attack of asthma dose or two of potassium taken dissolved In a glassful of water gives extraordinary results in some cases. Not all cases of spasmodic bronchial asthma. but some cases. I don't know why potassium gives such striking relief in some attacks of asthma and apparently no effect at all in other cases. No more do I know why the same remedy, potas- sium, brings such prompt relief in other manifestations of allergy, such as hives, syperesthetic rhinitis, hay fever and no apparent effect in other instances of the same type of trouble.
 My present notion about it is that calcium and vitamin D tend to correct the nutritional deficiency of which true spasmodic asthma, hay fever, hyperesthetic rhinitis or rhi- norrhea, hives, some cases of ecze- ma, some cases of angioneurotic edema (giant hives) are manifesto tions. Potassium, when 1t works at all, seems to bring temporary and only temporary relief to the trouble, that is, 1t seems to relieve the symp- toms for the time being. So far as I know, this symptomatic relief is all the potassium can give, and it has TO prophylactic, preventive or corrective value.
 So I advise sufferers from asth- ma, recurring hives, hay fever (eith- CT true hay fever or spurious "hay fever" occurring out of season when no pollen is in the air, as in mid- winter in the north), attacks of an- gioneurotic edema, recurring ecze- ma, or other manifestation of aller- gy, to supplement the daily diet with additional calcium in one form or another and a sufficient amount of vitamin D to insure its assimila- tion and utilization And I advise such sufferers to keep on hand few ten-grain tablets of soluble po- tasium chloride, and take one such tablet dissolved in a glassful of wa ter whenever the trouble comes on, and a second ten-grain dose in the same way an hour or two later. If this brings some relief, but not com plete relief, a third or a fourth dose may be taken in a few hours. Potassium chloride is partically harmless in any circumstances, even if 1t fails to give relief. Just how it relieves the symptoms or mani festations of allergy, I don't know. Psychologists believe adrealin lib- crates potassium, and that when the body tissues have been depleted of potassium the adrenalin no longer produces its effect. Perhaps the dose or two of potassium chloride complements or supplements the action of the adrenalin produced by your own adrenal glands. All I know is that 1t won't do any harm.

SNOODLESS GIRLS IRk PLANE CHIEF

A lot of them. he says, in their desire to look attractive to the men workers, refuse to wear hair nets over their long bobs q safety measure for women working with machinery. They won't wear proper work clothes. and they fiirt with the men.
 It looks from that as though some women. are going to have to learn a new way of getting along with men - as they go into war work in increasing numbers.
 They'll have to stop being self conscious about their looks during working hours, learn to get their men co-woFkers' respect by being pleasant individuals who do their jobs well instead of by being cute little things who are attrac- tive to have around. And they'll have to learn to keep their social life and their working life entirely separate.

Tn today's hand, declarer won the opening lead with the king of dia- monds, took his ace of spades and ruffed spade in dummy. On low club lead East hopped up with the ace and led a trump. South put up the ace of trumps and then ruffed a spade with the queen.
 Dummy led the queen of clubs and South discarded his last spade. But that gave West the king of clubs for the second trick, and West had two good trumps. The contract was defeated.
 At another table of the same duplicate game, with the same con- tract and same lead, the declarer made the contract. He took the queen with the king of diamonds. Now he made the strategically cor rect play, the singleton club.
 The principle is to establish the cross-ruff before beginning it, so that you don't have to lose the lead after it gets started. Then the de- fense Is less likely to lead trumps, and if they do. the conservation of entries may enable you to develope other resources.
 West held up the club king. and East took the jack with the ace. Back came trump and South ducked, West taking the king. On a second trump dummy put up the queen.
 South ruffed a club. cashed the ace of spades. and led a spade for North to ruff. Another club ruff dropped the king. the ace of trumps took out Vests ten. and the ace of diamonds gave entry to two good clubs.
 If at trick three East had led diamonds instead of trumps. de- clarer would have made the con- tract by a cross-ruff.

 ON PUPILS URGED
Parents Advised to Take Precautionary Measures
 Before School Opens

A continuous health program in every home with special health check-up for each child before he enters or returns to school is advo- cated in the current issue of the state departmental health weekly bulletin.

 Has my child had a thorough physical examination during the last six months? What defects were found? Have these defects been corrected?
 Has my child been protected from the diseases for which a preventive is known? Immunized against diphtheria? Vaccinated against smallpox?
 Has my child had a semi-annual dental examination? Did this reveal any cavities (caries) or other tooth defects? Have these conditions been corrected?
 Has my child healthful habits? Posture good? A program of play and exercise which develops good posture? Eats ith enjoyment three well balanced meals daily2 Sleeps rcstfully throughout the night? Practice habits of cleanliness? Washes hands thoroughly before each meal and after the toilet? Cleans teeth at elast twice a day?

Answer-You ask my advise. l advise you to consult physician but not in the way you come at me with a ready-made diagnosis. Don't presume to tell the doctor you are anemic or that you have spastic colon. Instead, try to tell him what your chief complaint is and what your minor complaints are-what ache, pain or distress you feel, when, where, for how long, etc. and leave 1t to the doctor to arrive at his own opinion as to what ails you.

Immunizing Against Diphtheria

Why do some doctors give three "shots" for protection of a child against diphtheria while others give only one injection? (Mrs. l.. c. Al
 Answer-The three injections of toxin-antitoxin constitute the older, well established method of immuniz- ing against diphtheria. The one in- jection of toxoid is a newer method and some good physicians prefer to stick to the well-established method. until they are thoroughly convinced that the newer method is equally efflcacious. Every child who has not had diphtheria should be given the test for susceptibility, and if this test does not show the child is nat uraily immune the child should re- ceiye the immunizing treatment, be- fore entering nursery school, kinder garten or Sunday school
