Shedding Areas
Recommended

Many children are looking for
ward to white holiday and

The Montgomery County Safe

mission, and the Board of Educa
ton join in recommending appro
pirate locations for shedding in

to stay off the streets and to use
these grounds wherever possible
The following locations are rec
commended as being particularly
suitable:

yer Spring; Takoma Park Aecre
alton Center, Grant and Darwin
Streets; Bethesda Chevy Chase

ters. Parents are invited to take
their children by automobile to
these two locations where they
will find rolling hills for shedding
and skiing and adequate parking
space for their cars.

For the colored, the total death
rate from all causes dropped 9.3
percent, nearly twice the decline
for whites. Specifically, the prom
inent declines for the colored
We're: tuberculosis (499 per-
cent?, accidents CIT percent),
heart disease (10.9 percent), and
cerebral hemorrhage (9.4 sper-
cent?.
Deaths from tuberculosis con-
tinued to drop during the year.
The 1854 tuberculosis death rate
of 1876 per 100000 population
represents a decline of 81 per-
cent in ten years from the 1914
figure of 71.3 per 100000 popula-
ton.
The tuberculosis decline for
the colored race has been practi-
cally equal to that for the white.
From 1914 to 1854 the colored
rate declined by 80 percent while
the white declined by 80 percent.
Reported cases of tuberculosis,
like the deaths, have followed a
downward trend although for
cases the decrease has not been
as great as for deaths. Modern
drugs have had a profound influ-
ence on tuberculosis mortality,
but cannot, of course, prevent to
the same extent infections pro-
ducing new cases. X-ray dag
noses and other case finding pro-
cedures continue to place a great
demand on tuberculosis hospital
facilities, according to tubercu-
losis authorities.

Hunting for Curtain
And Drapery Fabrics?

Know what you are buying
when you shop for curtain and
drapery fabrics, says Vivian Cur
mutt, home furnishings specialist
for the University of Maryland
Extension Service.
Otherwise, with so many diff
ferent types of fabrics on the
market you're likely to become
confused about what will be a
good buy. 1t will pay you to
learn their individual charac-
teristics and what you can expect
from them.
For example, many fabrics are
combinations of various man.
made and natural fibers which
are known as blends. Blends
may be in combinations of 50
percent man-made, so percent
natural; 80 percent man-made,
20 percent natural; or perhaps
70 percent natural, 80 percent
man-made. Others may be all
man-made or all natural fibers.
Special appearance, textures
and wearing qualities are
brought about by these various
blends. There is no perfect
fiber or combination, Miss Cur
mutt says. The choice depends
upon what you most need and
want and the effects you hope to
achieve.
Of all the natural fibers =
cotton, linen, silk and wool =
cotton has the widest use for
curtains and draperies. New
textures and manufacturing pro-
cesses are continuously being de-
veloped to make fabrics color
fast, shrink-proof, crease, dirt
and stain resistant.
The specialist says the chemi-
cal makeup of man-made fabrics
has both advantages and dis
vantages, and the quality of the
blend depends upon the combina-
ton used. However, most all
fabrics of man-made fibers look
we'll and tailor well because they
fall into soft folds. They are
sheer and will hold their crisp
ness. They are easy to care for
because they soil slowly, wash
easily and seldom need ironing.
Another point in favor of man
made fibers is that they are dur
able. They hold their original
shape, and there is no noticeable
stretch, sag or wrinkle as a re-
suit of the cleaning procedure.
However, the loose mesh fabrics
should be dry cleaned since they
may shrink in washing.
Before you buy a fabric for
curtains and draperies, Miss Cur
mutt warns, read the labels so
that you will know the special
qualities of the fabric and how
to care for it. Hold the fabric
up in folds to get its drapihg
effect and to see if the pattern
ed design of the fabric is equally
pleasing in shallow or deep
folds.

Come to Maryland for Health!
Deaths Lowest, Births Highest!

During 1854 Maryland reached
an alltime low death rate and an
all-time high in the number of
births, according to a prelimi-
nary report from the Division of
Vital Records and Statistics,
State Health Department.
The overall death rate of 81

Health for All

1t wasn't going to happen this
year. Remember? Your holiday
shopping, sewing, and bak-
ing were going to be so well
planned that there would be no
last minute rush. And where are
you now?
How are you going to finish
those aprons for the church ba-
zaar? When will you find time
to bake cookies for the children
to give to their teachers? Were
MT you going to applique some
flowers on Sisters new skirt?
And you haven't a gift for Faith
er? Don't you envy Mrs. Jones
who did all her shopping last
summer, who has everything fin
ished down to the last elegant
bow on her package?
You don't really envy her, do
you? For the next few days the
house will be full of excitement,
confusion and spicy smells. You'll
have too much to do, but it will
all get done. And you will prob
ably be less tired at the end of
it than Mrs. Jones who is now
resting up" for the ordeal of
the Holidays.
Hard to believe? Science tells
us that we feel better after work
ing hard than after resting. Rest
ing can be very difficult indeed,
especially if you have to do it.
Take a person suffering from
tuberculosis, for instance. Rest is
a basic part of the treatment for
TB. Often, months in bed are re-
quired to give the diseased lung
chance to heal. Can you mag
inc what it would be like? You'd
have to learn how to bear the
tedium, how to keep your mini
occupied so that worrying ana
fretting wouldn't make you even
Sicker.
Your body as well as your
mind would resent the lack of
activity. The skin, the digestive
system, muscles, and blood circu-
lation all suffer some bad eff
fects from rest. New ways of
treating TB are cutting down on
the amount of time patients must
spend in bed, but it is still long
ordeal.
Did you know that part of your
Christmas Seal contributions to
your tuberculosis association is
spnet to help TB patients get
through the necessary period of
rest with the least possible ply
steal and mental suffering to help
them bear the tedium so that
they will stay in the hospital un-
til they are completely cured?
Those of us who have too much
to do and the strength to do it
during the Christmas season can
be grateful for our good luck.
