A Cold

that one is worth trying In your
case.
When You Have One
So much for avoiding colds. Now,
when you have one
/. If you ache, have fever, or
feel tired, get in touch with the doc
tor. Resting and keeping warm give
the body its best chance of licking
a cold quickly. Wear clothes that
Will keep you warm and dry out
doors and avoid anything which
chills you, particularly when over
heated. Unfortunately, the early
signs of a cold are often the same
as those of serious, contagious
diseases like influenza. IF you pay

no attention to %just a bad cold"
you may be ~neglecting a serious ill
ness when it is most contagious,
and when skilled medical and nurs-
ing ARE will do the most good.
2. Drink plenty of water, broth,
and citrus juices. Eat light, simple
food that agrees with you. Liquids
help your body to get rid of wastes.
Food that is easy to digest spares
your body extra work while it is
fighting the infection.
Project Others
8. Protect other people as much
as possible Use paper handker-
chiefs or paper napkins that can
be burned, to cover your mouth
and nose when you cough or sneeze.
Wash your hands frequently with
soap and water. Remember that
colds are catching. Anything you
have recently coughed ON, sneezed
on, or touched with fingers soiled
with mouth or nose discharges may
give the cold virus a ride into some
one else's nose or mouth.
4. Blow your nose gently. If you
don't, you may force germs into
your sinuses or middle ear and
develop sinus trouble or serious
ear infections.
Take care of yourself promptly
and properly when you get a cold
80. Follow the rules of health to
build up good body resistance to
infection.

1t may stay awhile and wear you
out-badly enough, perhaps, to pave
the way for pneumonia. 1t may
come back so often or hang on SO
long that it finally settles down
as a chronic condition, such as
sinus infection or bronchitis.
With a cold you never know! So,
there are only two things to do.
Don't catch cold if you can possibly
help it, and get after any cold
you do catch as soon as you feel
it coming r. If you want to avoid
catching colds:
l.. Keep away from people who
cough or e carelessly. So far
as we know, colds are caused by a
living disease agent called a virus.
Whenever anyone with a cold
coughs, sneezes, laughs, or talks
forcib1y, with mouth or nose UNI
covered, tiny droplets laden with
cold virus are sprayed into the air.
If you go close to meo with a
cold, you may breathe in enough of
these infectious droplets to get one,
too.
Hifchhiking Virus
2. Keep unclean things away
from your nose and mouth. That is,
use only clean eating and drinking
utensils and your own toilet articles;
wash your hands with soap and
water before eating. Cold virus can
hitchhike from one person to n
other as well as travel directly
through the air. 1t can catch a ride
on anything which ONE in con-
tact, directly or indirectly, with the
nose or mouth. For example: soiled
handkerchiefs left around for ome
one else to pick up; shared towels,
spoons, or drinking cups; and fin
gers which have recently touched
something just handled or sneezed
on by someone with a cold.
8. Avoid chilling. Wet feet,
drafts, damp clothing, or exposure
to bad weather-anything which
causes chilling-helps to lower your
resistance. If the cold virus is pres
ent in the hos or throat, lowered
resistance may give it a chance to
get a hold. Chilling is particularly
dangerous when the body is wet
with perspiration.
Eat Properly
4. Eat properly. Eating enough
of the right kinds of food helps to
build up the reserves of strength
needed to fight infection. Every
day you should have at least a pint
of milk "a to / quart for children);
potatoes and two other vegetables;
two kinds of fruit-one a citrus
fruit Oranges and grapefruit) or
tomatoes; egg Cat least three or
four a week.; one serving of meat,
fish, poultry, or occasionally dried
peas or beans; wholegrain or en-
riched cereal or bread at each meal;
two or three tablespoonful of but
ter or vitamin-A margarine; and
enough water from four to eight
glasses) to aid elimination of waste

from a vitamin deficiency, the doc
tor may prescribe a vitamin-con-

course, he has had previous service).
Why did the Army do this, which
seems to circumvent that deferment
provision? The Army gives this
answer:
What is needed is a trained re-
serve force, strength in being"
The quickest way to get that
strength is to send eligible men to
I21 months of intensive training
through the draft.
1t might be possible to take a
man with no prior service, put him
in reserve unit, defer him from
the draft and some day come up
with a well-trained, potential fight
ing man. But that certainly is not
the quickest way to do the job.
The better way. says the Army, Is
to send that man to 81 months of
full-time Army training and then
put him in the ORC where his
weekly drill and training period will
keep him in fighting trim. The
Army points out that almost the
entire ORC is made up of men
who have had war service.
That's the Army thinking, and
circular 247 makes it clear.
So the Army reservists with no
prior service) who rate deferment
are those who joined the National
Guard on or before June "a.
Back to circular 247. After stat
ing that on June "a the only or
ganized units of the reserve forces
were these in the Federally recog-
nized National Guard. it goes on to
say that on and after June Is all
ORC units are to be classified as
organized units if they:
/ Fall within training category /
t48 drills and Is camp days each
year. or training category II ga
drills and Is camp days a year..
2. Have been officially approved.
It may seem queer that on June
ia there were no organized units
of the ORC and the next day hun
dreds sprouted.
However, as the Army says, the
draft act wasn't passed to keep men
out of the draft.

Paper Bags NewC|ue,
In Staying Of Couple;
Man, 3O,,in Custody

Police feeling for new clues in the
Mahlan-KIine murder case turned
their attention to two brown paper
shopping bags brought to the Anne
Arundel County police headquarters
today.
Significance of the bags was not
Immediately learned, but one was
stuffed full with a mans felt hat on
top and the other about half full.
Police Chief John H. Souers, who
was away from his Office at the time
was called back. But investigators
declined to say where they had
found the bags or what they con-
tanned
Earlier today a colored man about
80 years old, shabbily dressed was
taken to the Ferndale station by
1t. Wilbur C. Wade of the county
police. 1t. Wade said the man had
been picked up near a forestry serv-
ice tower on Old Annapolis road
near Lipins Corner.
Clues Are Few.
Although clues still seemed few
and far between, Chief Souers ex-
pressed confidence that police even
tually will solve the 12-day-old muir
der of John H. Mahlan, 25, and
Mary G. Kline, 18.
This is a battling case" he told
reporters, but we have had battling
ones here before. and I am confident
we will break this one one of these
days"
Chief Souers said he wished to
talk further today to 48-year-old
storekeeper picked up yesterday at
his store near the corner of Defense
and Generals highways, about 4
miles from the place where the
bodies were found September 20.
Find Two Pistols.
After locking up the man police
returned to the store and found two
pistols slightly larger than SO CAL
iber.
Police have told neWsmen they
believe the death gun was .38
and last night broadcast a teletype
request asking police of 13 States
to be on the lookout for such a
weapon.
Mr.. Mahlan, Navy war veteran
and postal clerk, and Miss Kline,
who had been dating him for two
years, were killed the night of Fri
day, September II, after they had
left for an automobile ride.
The car was found 5 miles south
east of Glen Burnie, but the bodies
were found in field near the
junction of Defense highway and
Chesterfield road, IL miles away.
Each had been shot through the
head once. The cars front windows
each had a bullet hole. Miss Kline S
left shoe was found in the back
seat and there was blood in both
seats.
City Police Not Active.
Although it was announced earlier
Baltimore homicide squad detec-
tive had been assigned to the case
Chief Souers said thus far city police
have not been active.
"As soon as all the evidence is
assembled, 1 will want them all in
on it," he said. I'm not interested
in who solves this case, but want
it solved"
He said he did not think Baltimore
police would be much help at this
stage of the investigation because
they are not familiar with the coun-
tryslde.

The draft, in case you've forgot
ten, aims at two principal goals
To build up the Regular Army from
about $4,000 to about 100000 and
to provide a well-trained Reserve
force which might be called a
strength in being" ready for any
emergency.
The Army is divided into three
parts: The Regular Army, the Ma
tional Guard and the Organized
Reserve Corps (ORC).
The last is becoming increasingly
important, in view of the drafts
No. 2 goal-a Reserve ready for any
emergency.
You get talking to Army experts
about the ORC and you come away
in the muddle of monstrous maze
For instance, the draft act says
that any person who on June "a

If you have no military service
and, like hundreds of others, you
Joined an Army reserve unit before
June "a you probably think you will
be deferred. From the paragraph
above, it certainly would seem so.
But, unless the Army unit you
Joined was part of the Federally
recognized National Guard. you de-
finitely are not deferred. You're as
draftable as any nondeferrable
fregistrant.
Why?
Army circular 247, dated August
13, contains the answer. 1t says the
only reserve components which
qualified as organized units on June
"a are National Guard units which
were Federally recognized on or be-
fore that date June 2D.
No unit of the ORC. says that
