SHAVING PREPARATIONS

Don't pay for a fancy mug or
for a shaving cream that's most
Iy water, if you want to shave
economically. Tests and price
comparisons of 103 brands of
shaving soaps and creams show
that the cheapest creams are al
most three times as expensive as
the cheapest dry soap for about
the same number of shaves; that
adding SC worth of shaving soap
to 10c worth of shaving mug
may bring the price of the COM
bination to the $3.50 level.
Economy aside, the type OF
shaving preparation you choose
is largely a matter of personal
preference. Consumers Union

NYLON HOARDERS

Women who are boarding n.y.

have some regrets before many
months roll by, according to Miss
Edna Gray, clothing specialist,
University of Illinois College of
Agriculture.
Says Miss Gray, "A supply of
20 pairs of nylOn hose should last
one woman at least three or four
years. NyIOn improvements are

Elected in the hose Mrs. Con-

Some of the changes ahead

portioned sizes and dyes that are
more color fast.

brands were rated Not Accept

DEATH BY DDT

So far we have not discoV-
cred an insecticide which is u
cure-all. While DOT is very
poisonous, its action is slow
compared with other insecti-
cides. Insects fatally poison
ed by DOT have been known
to live for hours, even days,
afterwards. A single applica-
ton of DOT will continue to
kill flies, mosquitoes and other
pests for weeks or even
months. Repeated applications
are needed when it is used out
doors. DDT is ineffective
against the cotton boil weevil
as well as against a number
of other pests.

She showed deep concern over
the fact that the military IS TAX

said. In line with this she is ap-

At great expense to them
selves expense which they can
i'll afford, and certainly cannot
maintain for long, parents affili-
ated with the Illinois Parents
Council for Nursery Schools are
attempting to set up cooperative
nurseries in public schools and
community centers.
Three such centers are already
operating: Altgeld. at the Altgeid
Homes, Tabernacle at the FabeC1l-
acle Baptist Church, and Cleve-
land, the latest to open, at the
Grover Cleveland public school.
UNDER THE former nursery
school program, financed by City
of Chicago funds for four months
sitter federal aid had been with
drawn, nursery fees averaged so
cents per day per child.
Fees necessary to run the CO.
operatives without any aid run
from S3.75 a week to the $3.50
per week being charged at CleVe-
land. However, cooperatives are
finding that they must raise their
fees to at least SIS in order to
meet expenses.
In addition to the cooperatives,
z other nurseries are now operat-
ing with money supplied by the
Community Fund and the Coun-
Gil of Social Agencies. Ten other
centers forced to close are still
closed however, with no provi-
sions for care of the children
which they served.
+ "
DETERMINED to keep the
nursery school program from dy-
ing, members of the Parents
Council are calling upon all COM
munity organizations and private
citizens to urge Gov. Green to
call a special session of the I'LL
nois Legislature in order to ap-
propriate 100000 to run the nur-
series for one year.
Other states, including Califor-
MIA, New York and Washington,
have already made such appro-
priations. California, for in
stance, has 31a million dollar
nursery school sum serving less
children than in Chicago.
The Parents Council hopes that
if the Governor acts on his pro.
mise to call the Legislature in
session for rent control action he
will also at that time ask them to
consider the plight of the nursery
school. Meanwhile, prices mount,
salaries remain the same, and
mothers and fathers must cut
corners from the food and cloth.

First Aid For
ChiId's Fever :

AHHO ) / ever
by CAROLINE TREE, MD.
DR.. Caroline Tree is the
pen name Of a I0on2an phg-
siciGn lOh0 has had conSid-
cradle professional eIperi-
ence in the care of children.
She herself is the mother
Of tlOo small children.
THE first thing a mother
thinks of, when her child's skin
feels hot and looks flushed, is
that the child has a fever. The
only way to be sure is to take
the temperature with a Their
mometer, by rectum. The nor
NAL rectal temperature is 99.6 de-
grees Fahrenheit, which is one
degree higher than normal mouth
temperature.
We call it fever when the body
heat is higher than normal
Usually, fever means that the
child is i'll, the most common
cause being a respiratory infec-
ton such as cold. In very small
babies, a common cause of fever
is not getting enough water to
drink.
Hot, damp weather may cause
your baby to get a fever, al
though this does not happen very
often. If the child is afraid, ex-
cited or anxious about some
thing he may sometimes get Il
fever, but this too is quite un.
common.
THE first thing to remember
about treating a lever is to find
out the cause of the fever-then
treat the cause. Call your doe
Ator, or take your child to your
clinic as soon as possible, to have
the baby examined. The thro;
and ears should especially be
looked at, and urine examina-
ton is usually a good idea.
A child with fever must be kept
in bed, as quietly as possible, not
only until the temperature is no.

of water and fruit juices - fire.
quently and pleasantly. IRE
child who refuses water will
often be quite happy to take pop
or ginger ale in this emer-
gency don't hesitate to offer
bottled drink if water or fruit
juice is refused.
Never give drugs, such as the
sulfa drug, and penicillin, unless
your doctor tells you to. If the
child seems uncomfortable. you
can give him small doses of as
pirin. In general, a child under
2 years can have one third of a
5-grain aspirin tablet every four
hours; a child up to 5 years,
about one-half of an aspirin tablet
every four hours. For a child
over 5 years, one aspirin tablet
every four hours may be given.

things they are able to buy.
LITTLE THINGS COUNT
She says that being able to take
a taxi in the rain or when she is
tired, being able to buy the new
books, instead of taking them from
a rental library, subscribing to
several newspapers instead of just
one, do far more to give her a
feeling of living luxuriously than
would owning an expensive fur
coat or some other such "big
thing many women are willing to
pinch pennies to have.
And unlike so many women who
live alone, she is a happy woman.
For she lives by what is important
to her = and aims to please her
self instead of to impress the
Joneses.
The reason the life of a lone
woman is so often dreary is main
ly that without a man around to
say 80 what?" occasionally, most
women haven't the courage to live
according to their own ideas. So
they follow the dreary pattern set
by the other women they know
and soon become as dreary as the
pattern.
