Best Thing To Do For
Colds Is Avoid Them

The best thing to do about those all
too prevalent betwcen-season colds is
to avoid them" Dr. r. H. Riley, Direc-
tor Of the State Department Of Health.
advises Marylanders of all ages. Pre-
vention is more desirable than cure,
because a cold or series of colds can
undermine the general health and
clear the way for other more serious
diseases. Moreover. even il the COM
mon cold were not real threat to
health, it would certainly be wise to
try to escape the Inconvenience, dis
comfort and loss Of time from work
and other activities.
"Physical fitness is desirable and
probably may offer some protection
against colds and Influenza, which
reach a seasonal peak during the fall
and winter months Adequate sleep,
Well-balanced meals at regular hours,
suitable outdoor exercise and good
ventilation can contribute much to the
vigor and well-being of the average
person. Clothing should be adapted to
the weather to prevent overheating or
excessive chilling. Such measures will
help.
when colds are prevalent in COM
munity it is wise tc avoid crowds
whenever possible. 1t is, of course,
particularly important to keep away
from people who are coughing, sneez-
ing or showing other signs of cold.
1t should be remembered that a cold
is communicable disease usually
passed from an infected person to a
healthy person through direct contact.
If, in spite of reasonable precau-
tions, cold does develop the victim
should look upon the disease as more
than just nuisance Whenever pos
sible it is wise to go TO bed and drink
fruit juices and water in large guam
titles. If there is no Improvement at
ter twenty-four hours a physician
should be consulted-particularly if it
is a second cold caught on top of a
cold or if fever is present. The patient
should also make every effort TO keep
the infection to himself. Coughs and
sneeZes should be covered with hand
or handkerchief, preferably a dispos-
able paper one Special effort should
be made to keep away from young

 The Way to Peace
 The Red Gross worker knew well trip to Avon provokeS profound thought. You think not only of the superior courage and tFanscendent spirit of those men, You see with unprecedented clarity how far is the world from the true the right and the good. A glaring light Is sudden- Iy cast upon the hideous trivia that makes for the greater part of living totlay--thc painful preJudiceS, the unbridled ambitions, the cruel competition, the widespread greed There was also a far more impor. tant revelation. If every single per- son in the world could see those boys, we would never have another war;" We said.
 That Is exactly what everyone says who has ever been there" Helen replied,
 The visit to Avon took place late last Septemebr. For almost eight months the notes on the brave, fun- loving boy from Indiana have lain in the desk drawer. His story was not easy to write. It was done with lump In the throat. Its comple- ton provoked regret because 1t does not do him justice.
 It was written finally only be- cause the local chapter of the Amer ican Red Cross Is making a last minute appeal for funds to continue Its work in Avon and other hospitals throughout the country and the world. The conviction persisted that 1t might help substantially their great mission of mercy.
 Unquestionably, those Sightless soldiers at Avon are lacking in nothing which the world can give The government provides them with the best food, the finest shelter, in- teresting recreation and able and patient teachers.
 But there Is also a vital need for these Red Cross workers who write endless pages for men who have been making mental jottings to their loved ones for days, who read to them with inexhaustible energy, who offer the understanding that is woman's alone.
 A pledge made on this Good Fri day to tighten the burden of the cross of the brave boys who gave so generously will surely make Eas- ter day happier and brighter and more blessed one!
