 ForWoshins Greens Found
MIRIAM WEINRIB Waterbury Nutrition Council

Many housewife has been de- tered from serving spinach and other greens because she finds it Sc hard to wash off all the sand that inevitably comes with them. But washing greens is quick and easy job if few simple rules are follow ed.
 1. Have large container the sink with a stopper in it is excel lent and large dish pan is al- most equally good.
 ?. Use a large amount of water and have the water luke -warm-it removes the sand and dirt better and is easier on the hands.
 3. For the first washing, do not cut off the root ends-leave each bunch" together Douse these punches up and down in the pan several times, and lift out of the water. Rinse all the sand out of the pan between washings.
 Next cut off the roots, and put only the leaves into the second water. Wash we'll and lift the leaves out of the water.
 5. Repeat with fresh water un- til no sand shows in the bottom of the pan-then you can be sure there is none left on the leaves. Three or four washings will suf- flee.
 6. Don't let the greens soak in the water-soaking will dissolve out minerals, and vitamins.
 After the last washing, put the greens into the pan in which they are to be cooked. Sprinkle with salt, and without adding more water cook only until tender in a covered pan with the fire not too high. Thin leaves such as spinach will be done in 8 to 10 minutes; heavy leaves such as kale will take little longer Season as desired, and serve, using any liquid that may remain in the pan.

fluenza, types A and B that cause outbreaks in this country. The in- vestigators feel that immunity against influence may be expected about one week after inoculation and although it does not give last ing protection, such as smallpox vaccine does, its greatest value lies in it's use when an epidemic strikes or threatens to strike. If used at this time the incidence of influenza as we'll as the severity of an attack should tend to decrease.
 The best time to administer vac cine is to give it in the Fall months and repeat the inoculation in Janu- ary or February. The duration of protection is variable and usually declines after two months, although some investigators have found that the level of protection may last one year.
 Experience in the Armed forces have indicated that the vaccine is effective in reducing the incidence of influenza to about one-fourth of what was expected in all popula- tions. On the basis of these facts it would appear that definite value can be obtained by the proper use of the vaccine. I would urge all of our citizens to consult their fam fly physician and afford themselves of the opportunity to be free from influenza With less economic waste and less complications in some cases.

New Haven, Aug. 28-Dr. Hajo Holborn, professor of History at Yale University, will discuss "The Military Occupation of Germany" on the 'Yale Interprets the News" program this Sunday night at SIS over Radio Station WTTC.
 A graduate of the University of Berlin, Dr. Holborn served for three years during World War II as Consultant to the Office of Stra- tegic Services, attached to the Di- rector of the Branch of Research and Analysis.
 Before joining the Yale faculty in 1884, Dr. Holborn had taught at the University of Heidelberg and the University of Berlin and had also served as Carnegie Professor of History and International Relations at the School of Politics in Berlin.

Conversational Spray
 Deadly y as Cough Spray

danger and people Wno know about it generally try not only to cover their own coughs or Sneezes but also to avoid being coughed or sneezed upon by others. On the other hand, most people seem to be ignor- ant of this danger - they neither trouble to cover their own coughs or sneezes nor try to duck the spray shot at them by other ignorant people As for the instruction of children about this, in school or at home, it is pretty evident that such instruction in hygiene is more hon. ored in the breach than the ob- Srevance.
 Everybody emitS some mouth spray during ordinary quiet polite conversation. In some instances this conversational spray is not entirely invisible or impalpable, but occas- ionally you are conscious of the spatter, if not the splash of sig able droplets or gobS upon your face.
 Now I'm not particularly squeam- ish but get all hot and bothered if or when I am caught in a corner where I can't dodge the conversational spray of a bird who may or may not spatter or splash but who, I suspect, has some sinus or other residual of chronic re- spiratory infection. That is the time when I wish heartily that suitable masks, of transparent plastic ma terial, were fashionable for every one to wear in any gathering or crowd.
 hope every reader of this piece will remember conversational spray whenever he or she thinks about the spray of openface coughing or snezzing. Conversational spray is not quite so obvious as cough spray or sneeze spray, but it is just as deadly If you get caught in it. AS a practical matter of hygiene the only difference between polite con- versatlonal spray and open-face cough of sneeze spray is that the range of conversational spray is less than five feet, whereas the range of cough or sneese spray is ten or twelve feet or more.
 The barber, the sales clerk, the conductor, the patient, the doctor, the cashier, the waiter, the teacher, the dentist. the pupil, the nurse, the stenographer, the commuter, the boss-every one who in the course Of daily work or play or life comes within the five-foot range of Tom, Dick and Harry should for his own sake and the sake of everybody else understand clearly about conver- sational spray. This knowledge is for the good of ones health-and, aside from the occasional uneas- mess it may cause, as indicated above, it need not make one at all morbid or queer but just less susceptible to the cri.

Health Officer Recommends Anti-Influenza InOculatiOns

Inoculation against the common types of influenza was recommend ed to Waterburians today by Dr. Edward J. Godfrey, City Health Officer. Pointing out that newly developed vaccines have proven ef- fective against the disease, Dr. God frey suggested that parents and children consult family physicians to arrange for immunization.
 The health officer proposed that local residents have the vaccine first administered during the Fall months, then have the inoculation repeated in January or February. This, he said. would do much to reduce the health and economic toll charged to influenza yearly.
 Dr. Godfrey issued the following statement:
 Tnfluenze is a disease which ap- pears at fairly regular intervals although it is quite difficult to pre- dict with any exactness when it will occur in epidemic proportions. It is serious because of the extreme disability it produces, causing eco- homie waste, through the loss of man hours. not to mention the complications that may arise which sometimes prove fatal. For these reasons it is felt that an immuniz- ing material would protect groups of people most likely to be exposed to influenze at the time of an out break. The health department would like to call your attention that there is now available a vac cine for adults and children which affords protection for a variable period of time against types A and B influenza.
 The latest reports indicate that the vaccine is effective against in-

For twenty or thirty years now, a few doctors and health officers or health department officers have &C., knowledged, or occasionally even warned the public about the dan ger of catching disease from cough or sneeze spray-the visible or in- visibly fine droplets of germ-laden moisture sprayed from the mouth or nose of the person who coughs or sneezes without covering his mouth and nose with handkerchief, hand, mask or screen.

George has raised a common ques- ton. The section of the act to which he refers provides that benefits un- der the act can be deducted from any adjusted compensation that Congress may provide at any future time. Therefore, many of the so- called benefits" are not benefits at all because ultimately, the vet eran will. pay back to the govern ment from bis bonus what should have been free and unencumbered benefit.
 Congress itself has come to this conclusion. Because of it, Section 15O5, to which George took excep- tion, has been repealed. Apparently George L. has not had an oppor- tunity tQ review the amendment to the SerVicemens Readjustment Act.
 The effect of striking out this pay y-me-back" provision is that benefits under the Servicemen's Re- adjustment Act (GI BilD have no relation to any bonus or readjust- ment pay that may be voted by Con- gress at some later date.
