More Light for Safe Homes

lighted kitchen there should
be a light over the sink, the
range and work counters
so that the eyes can see
quickly and clearly what
the hands are doing. In the
postwar days ahead. indi-
rect lighting for all work
areas viii help prevent ac-
cidents and make the rooms
more attractive. But until
we have such installations,
let's use more and bigger
bulbs.
The same general prin-
ciple of light at the
work areas, applies in the
laundry. Wash tubs and
washing machine, wringer,
ironer or ironing board
should be Illuminated by a
fixture which directs the
light downw ard on the
work surface. Adequate
lighting at ali these points
means quicker seeing for
greater safety, especially
where there are moving
parts of appliances. This ad-
vice also holds true when
working at the sewing ma
chine, or with tools in the
home workshop.
A Small Price 10 Pay
THE price OF prote' ting the
j family with light is the
expenditure of a little plan
ming time and a little money.
The cost of last years fatal
home accidents amounted
TO 5000, 900, 900, or more
than enough TO pay for good
lighting throughout Amer
ica's homes.
Better lighting in the
home is a cheap form of ac-
cident insurance, for il
means better sight and
greater safety-and without
light there is neither.
Good light is essential in
the bathroom for shaving,
and feminine makeup.

Plenty of Fluids

According to Doctor Frank G.
IIamm of the Army Medical Corps.
the treatment for prevention of
kidney stones consists, first. in
making sure that the patient takes
plenty of fluids, an average of
about four quarts a day. The diet
should be rich in calo.ics or heat
value. and rich in vitamins, also.
The amount of acid in the kidney
secretions should be checked at
regular and frequent intervals. so
that the diet can be regulated to
keep the urine from becoming al
kaline. However, it is not recon-
mended that the diet be one which
is acid-ash forming.
Another stage in the treatment
is to get rid, if possible, of any in
fections such as may be present in

where in the body.
Kidney stones are likely t, form
when there is some blocking of the
flow of the kidney evcretions. If
such blocking exists, operative
treatment may be necessary to
get rid of it.
Stryker Frame
If the patient is suffering from
some disorder which makes it nee
ossary for him to remain in bed.
it may be advisable to employ a
type of apparatus known as a
Stryker frame, which permits the
patient to be moved frequently. If
the patient "a be up and about,
he should be in an erect position,
that is, either sitting or standing
as much as possible.
A careful examination of the
urine should be made once a week
to determine if any infection is
present in the kidneys or bladder,
so that it can be cleared up. IL
there IS an excessive secretion
from the parathyroid glands of
internal secretion located in the
neck, it also may aid in causing
kidney stone formation.
Determining the amount Of cal
cium or lime in the urine will help
to tell whether or not there is ex-
cessive secretion from the para
thyroid gland. The Use { these

TEXTBOOK COM.
 OPENS MEETING
 HERE THIS 1. M.

Facing a Jop that rolls around once every four years--the selection of new textbooks for use in Alaska's schools-the Alaska Textbook Com mission here this morning opened it's first meeting since 1941.
 The three members of the Con- mission are: James Ryan, Commis- sioner of Education, who holds the chairman post A. B. Phillips, Su- perintendent of Juneau Public Schools, and Harold Roth, Superin- tendent of Schools at Seward. Also on hand for the meeting, to offer what information regarding the products of their firms that the Commission may require, are the representatives of four major text book publishing. companies: Ber- hard Hemp, Allyn-Bacon; John Beers. MacMillan Company; Ray Done, Houghton- -Mifflin Company, and Lynn Smith, Ginn & Go. In response to invitations dispatched in advance by the Alaska Textbook Commission, several other promi- nent publishing firms had sent samples of their wares here, but are not personally represented.
 Extent of the job facing the Commission is apparent on first view of the Chamber of the Terri torial House of Representatives, where textbook samples in extensive array load down the tops of tables and are lined up along the peri meter of the speakers podium. Chemistry biology, physics, litera- ture, history. mathematics and most school subjects are there under variety of titles.

 HAS CERTIFICATE

Cpl. Raymond L. Conrad of Op- portunity, Wash, member of the famed Alaska Scouts, received the first Certificate of Commendable service presented by It. Gen. D. E. Enmons, commander of the Alaska Department.
 The new awards, personally sign ed by the Alaska Department com- mander and the soldiers post com manding officer, will be given to en- listed men and officers who are de- parting from the theater and have completed at least one year of satis- factory Alaska service.

 Conrad. who entered the Army in August of 1940, first came to Alaska in September of that year, when he became member of the well-known 4th Infantry Division and was stationed at Ladd Field near Fairbanks.
 He joined the Scouts in April l943, in preparation for the com ing Aleutian campaign against the Japanese there. and fought in the Battle of Attu, receiving the coveted Silver Star Medal for his outstand Ing feats of heroism and gallantry Cpl. Conrad also received the Dis tinguished Unit badge this be- cause of a Presidential citation fol his unit and the Combat Infan-
