Hidden vD Menace
Seen in Uncontrolled
Use Of PeniciIIin pills

A warning that the miracle
drug" penicillin. used in its new
tablet form. could become an ex-
treme public health hazard" came
from three Navy doctors report
ing on sonorrhea research yes

real Disease Association.
/ The three are Comdr. v. w. II.

They said uncontrolled use Of
pencillin pills by gonorrhea vic
tins not only might fail TO elm
mate the disease. but, by causing
its apparent suppression. might
expose many other persons TO IN
fection.
The Navy doctors reported sue
cess in experimental use q the
pills by more than 1000 sailors
as a prophylaxis. or preventive,
during q test last summer. But
they emphasized the results were
inconclusive and that the pills
were not tried out as curatives.
Stronger Dosages Urged.
In comparison with another
900 men who had only ordinary
prophylaxis. So per cent fewer men
who took the pills contracted the
disease, the doctors reported. The
tablets were administered on an
average OF IS hours after expos
ure and had a strength Of 200 900
to 250.000 units of penicillin.
On the basis of the test. the
doctors recommended stronger
and quicker doseages in the fu-
ture. The experiment definitely
indicated the pills are effective as
a prophylactic agent. but further
research is essential, they en-
phasized.
They urged cautious accept

Emily Post

Dear Mrs. Post: When address

necessary to go to the trouble OF
writing names in full? For ex-
ample: Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander
Maitland Abercrombie - what
would you do about that? If only
middle initial is known is it
better to omit it entirely rather
than abbreviate?
Answer: In the example you
give, the middle names initial
could certainly serve-unless your
handwriting is Cor you can make
it, narrow. Names should be cor
rectly written in full.

Brown and White Shoes
Dear Mrs. Post: May brown and
white shoes be worn with an all
white suit at a country wedding in
hot weather? I mean the men in
the wedding. It's a small wedding
in church and reception on the
lawn of the brides house.
Answer: All white shoes would
be best taste at a wedding. At
other times, in the country, brown
and white shoes are very smart

County Jail Rated
High in State Report

The annual State Board of Correc-
ton report has rated the Garrett
county jail highly.
The report indicated there were no
complaints by those committed as to
the food, that there were no bed bugs
or vermn and that the plumbing was
working properly.
1t pointed out that the county had
made arrangements to have showers
installed for female and juvenile sec
tions of the jail. 1t recommended that
with so few prisoners t h a t it was
more economical to have it run by the
sheriff than to appoint a warden, but
also recommended the fee system for
food be eliminated. At present the
sheriff is allowed 80 cents per day to
feed each prisoner.
While there was no special place
for juvenile offenders it was pointed
out that they could be isolated from
other prisoners, and that the space
for women prisoners was more than
adequate.
The board again recommended the
removal of prisoners to Allegany
county and using the present Jail as a
lookup only
