DO YOU KNOW?

The best way to keep the heat from
getting you down is to sweat pro-
fusely? Sweating keeps the body at
normal temperature. Therefore drink
IL to Is glasses of water each day.
Replenish the salt lost in the body by
sweating by eating additional salt or
by taking salt pills.
Eat light food in moderate amounts.
Avoid fats and reduce the intake of
proteins, such as meat and eggs. Drink
less stimulants such as coffee, tea or
alcoholic beverages.
Swim, shower often and wear thin,
loose clothing. Avoid direct exposure
to the hot sun if possible.
A million and a half women are
now working in essential war indus
tries. Twice that number will be
needed before the year is out and five
million by 1913. The U. S. Employ
ment Service has sent out call for
women who can work to register at
their nearest u. S. E. S. office
Getting in the crops, clerking, doing
hospital work or making change on a
street car may not sound as CLAM
orous and important as assembling an
airplane, but if filling these jobs means
that other skilled men and women will
be released for war production, then
these jobs are as much a part of the
war effort as the more important
sounding ones.

FACING
THE -
FACTS
With PHILIP PEARL

So many government agencies are
misdirected in their labor policy that
it is a great temptation to lambaste
them continuously and forget about
those which are intelligently and eff
GENTLY administrated. This, we are
beginning to realize, is a serious mis-
take on ourt part.
Therefore, not just to hand out bou-
quets but in the hope that some of the
backward bureaus may profit by their
example, we are going to name here
the agencies that consistently cooper
ate effectively with organized labor.
First on this list is the Industrial
Section of the U. S. Army's Services of
Supply, headed by Col. A. Robert Gins
burgh. This organization is doing
thorough and whole-hearted job of
promoting labor morale in the war
production drive. 1t is far and away
ahead of any other government agency
in the same field
War Robert Patterson is basically re-
sponsible for the efficiency of this Of
flee. He has established an undeviat-
ing policy Of straightforward collab-
grafton with labor that has brought
results. Col Ginsburgh and his staff
have closely adhered to this policy.

mendation is CAPT. Don Robinson, for
mer newspaperman.
Secrets of Success
Now let's look into the operations
of Col. Ginsburgh's office just enough
to discover the secret of its success in
the past two years.
In the first place, this office does not
hand out orders to labor indiscrimi-
nately. Before arriving at decisions,
it takes the trouble to consult labor
to find out what the score is. 1t also
is not too proud to listen to and be
guided by constructive suggestions
from labor. If only Price Admins
traitor Leon Henderson and Manpowe1
Director Paul McNutt had shown the
same common sense a great many Sc
rious mistakes could have been avoided
Secondly, Col Ginsburgh's office has
earned the confidence and respect OF
organized labor by playing square. II
his not issued pious statements OF
policy one day and reneged on then
the next. We remember, by way Of
contrast, that when Leon Henderson
was lobbying for the price control bill
and was seeking labor's support fo1
this legislation he swore up and dow
Pennsylvania Avenue and all point
adjacent that he had no desire to reg
ulate or control wage rates. And nov
look at what he's doing.
Thirdly, Col. Ginsburgh's office ha
not tried to play the A. F. of L. agains
the CIO or vice versa but has beel
scrupulously fair and helpful to both
We admit it's tough for any govern
ment agency to maintain strict neu
trality and avoid antagonisms, but w
frequently have had cause to suspec
that certain individuals on the stat
of the National Labor Relations Boarc
the War Production Board and the Ma
tional War Labor Board are outrigh
partisans. Such a situation ruins eff
fectiveness and real collaboration, be
| cause it breeds mistrust.

Slips perform an important clothes

Slips, sleeping garments and loung-

government order. Slips will no longer
be made with shadow panels, double

requires fabric over fabric
Rayon slips will wear long if ma

close, evenly stitched seams. Rayons
often tear apart at the seams, par
ticularly if the seam is straight cut.
Rayon slips should be cut on the bias
to avoid direct pull on the threads.

five minutes. Turn off burner and al

AS Investment in Everyday Living,
Tact Can Pay Large Dividends

quired. and any man or woman
who is willing to work at the job
that will serve every purpose. Hence
there is no need of any one being

unless they enjoy breaking peoples
hearts with their clumsineSs and
walking roughshod over their finer

Aside from the kindliness and
common humanity involved in han

roughhousing them, tact pays big
dividends as an investment in every
day living. For one thing. it assures
the popularity that is at the bottom

endeavor, for people will do things
for us because they like us that they
would not do for us because it was
our right to save our lives.

pretty, is never going to be elected

Manners a
of the
Moment

I've been trying to decide lately
whether I prefer to see a man S
socks punched down around his
ankles, or to go through the painful
process Of watching him pull his
socks up.
1t probably shouldn't be a problem
at all. The man probably should
wear garters. But it seems to me
that many men have a great deal
OF trouble with their socks, and are
consequently falling into the habit
of pulling up their socks right in
public.
1t seems a bit strange. You men
don't particularly like it when girls
start fixing their stockings in the
midst of a social evening. At least,
you don't consider it ladylike. So
why do you think you have the Ii
cense to adjust socks at social gathS
erings? There ought to be rule.

Infants Feet
Should Have
Attention
Health and Beauty
Are Insured Only
By Propei. Care
By Leffice Lee Street,

Unless there has been an un-
fortunate accident, or an anatom-
ical defect is present, the foot can
be beautiful. But its future health
and beauty depend upon proper
care during babyhood, childhood
and adolescence. Even though q
child of IA or IS may have grown
as tall in stature as Nature in
tended. his feet will not be fully
developed until about his Goth year.
A baby's foot is 30 precious with
its pink heel and curled toes, but
it Is erroneous to believe that all
babies are born with perfect feet,
because, sadly enough, they are not.
The structure Of the foot is Just
as likely to show congenital weak
ness and flaws as Is any other part
Of the body.
Therefore, II foot frailty is OBJ
served while q child Is still very
young and corrective exercises and
care are given it frequently follows
that this child'S feet will be more
healthy than are the feet Of a baby
born with strong little pedal ex-
tremities that are neglected and
mistreated.
An infants foot is not like ours,
which has 26 solid, hard bones, but,
instead, its bones are very soft and
even 3 slight pressure, II constant,
can distort them.
The pretty little feet OF q baby
In arms can be injured by such
thoughtless practices as pulling the
covers too tightly, wrapping the
baby too snugly in a shawl, or al
lowing him to wear stockings or
booties that are too short. A baby
should be able to wiggle his toes
inside his socks and to curl up his
knees under the covers.
The mother should pay attention
to her baby's toenails and to the
condition Of the skin of the feet
and between the toes. Nails should
be cut straight across to prevent
them from growing into the flesh.
If the skin OF a baby's feet tends
to be dry the mother may gently
massage the 1eeC with olive or min
eral oil and she should always take
care to dry well between the little
toes.
The creeping baby should wear
shoes and when he starts to pull
himself up to a standing position
1t is best for him to wear high-laced
shoes with flexible tops and firm but
pliable soles. A small child this
age should be guarded against being
permitted to stand for too long at
time. He is very likely to make
an effort to do so when he first dis
covers his new accomplishment.
Chubby little fellows should be care
fully watched because Of their heavy
weight.
1t is most unwise to try to force
a baby to walk or to put him into
any contriyance that claims to
teach a child how to walk. Such
practices put too great a burden
upon the soft bones that are not
yet strong enough to assume their
load.

The story goes" that human
being whom we now call Indians
came from the Northern Tibetan
plateau across the Bering Straits,
which were then land bridge, and
travelled down the coast toward the
warmer Central American portions
OF the continent to form what was
later known as the great Inca and
Aztec civilization.
Other groups penetrated the noun
tain ranges on the West Coast and
came down into the fertile valleys
OF Southern Utah and Colorado.
Sheltered by q mountain range at
the north, they built homes close
to water supply, and though eating
must have been their main reason
for living, they also found time to
weave sandals and make feather
cloth blankets, weave very fine bas-
kets and make interesting tools of
stone and bone. Because of this
weaving ability, we now call them
basket makers"
Their home was about one-third
dugout and the rest above ground.
A circular or rectangular depres-
sion WAS dug as deep as it could be
done conveniently without a shovel.
II the earth was soft it was probably

crumbly the floor and sides were
plastered with mud, If not fiat stones
were set on end to line the interior
