''7his Weeks Visitor" Friends Advice Leads Widow to Seek Security Allowance for Self Children - News
 Proves Enlightening, Measuring
By EDWARD N. MULLARKEY-

Didn't I tell you, Hazel!" And then we told Mrs. Lerner that the benefits for herself and and the children would be about $66 a month.
 We wish we could describe to you the amazed joy on the face of Mrs. Lerner when she heard this. As for her friend, there is no describing her expression it was such a mixture of triumph, self-satisfaction, wonder, and relief.
 Benefits Estimated
 We explained that the exact amount would not be known until we checked her. husbands wage account in our Baltimore office. However, on the basis of the in- formation she gave his benefit rate would be about $500. She would receive $28.0O a month and each child would get $500 month- ly. Of course, the $66 would be paid until the older child reached eighteen. The total monthly benefit would then be reduced to $47 until the younger child reach ed eighteen. Payments would stop at that time. However, when Mrs. Lerner reaches 65 she will begin to receive again her regular benefit of $28 @ month until her death.
 Mrs. Abbot was overcome by the prospect of Q steady income for her friend and couldn't think of another question to ask. Mrs. Lerner was in a happy daze. But she did manage to make out the claims papers and the pair seemed very pleased as they went away arm in arm.

BY Iona L. TROTT
Written for NEA Service

There are many people who
do not know how to read a clint
cal thermometer, and m amy
more apparently who do not
realize the Importance of clean
ing it. Poor thermometer tech
nique Is a health menace to both
patient and home nurse.
Always wash your hands with
soap and water before taking .
temperature. Hold the therm-
ometer by the end opposite the
bulb. Make it a habit never to
touch the bulb end-which goes
in the patients mouth-with
your fingers, and you will not
be so likely to spread infection.
Shake the thermometer down
below the SO degree mark. Be-
fore placing 1t in the patients
mouth rinse it with cool water.
If used dry 1t Is likely to stick
to the tongue and lips and feel
uncomfortable.
PROPER WAY
Place the thermometer well
back under the tongue and allow
it to remain at least three min
utes, while the patient keeps his
lips tightly closed. At the end
of three minutes remove the
thermometer and wipe the secre-
tions down over the bulb end
with a piece Of dry cotton so that
you can see the mercury clearly.
Hold the thermometer on a level
with the eyes, with the triangu-
lar edge toward you, and roll 1t
slightly between the fingers un-
til you locate the column Of mer-
curry, which appears as silver
bar or line. The point at which
the mercury comes to an end
shows the degree Of temperature
the patient has.
The degrees are marked by
even figures, from about "a to
1O8. The odd figures are not
marked, although the degree line
appears. Each short black line
between two degree lines indi-
Gates two tenths of degree. The
normal temperature Is about 98.6
degrees although slight varia-
tons from that are still consid-
cred normal.
To clean the thermometer
moisten a piece of cotton with
water and soap and wipe it firm
ly from the tip to the bulb.
Rinse and repeat the procedure,
using a second piece Of soaped
cotton. Rinse the thermometer
with cold water, dry 1t with
clean cotton and place II back in
the case.
