Many parents blame the cold, foggy weather for the condition of their children's health and realiz ing that the child may have a se vere cold still send they to school where in a warm room with many other children they may spread that one cold through an entire room. For, as scientists have proved, colds do not originate from cold, sunless months but from germs given off from the body by coughing, sneez ing, etc. The old idea that colds are due to exposure to cold is erroneous. In fact the opposite is true. If one is out in the cold air they breathe more deeply and thus tone up the bodily health. All sorts of winter outdoor sports and sleeping on open air porches, help one to build up re sistance to colds. The reason that we take colds easily in the winter Is that we have lowered our resistance to infection by having our houses overheated. Then when we go out side, the change in temperature is so great that the blood temperature at the surface of the body is low ered. When this temperature is low ered one degree Fahrenheit, the power of the body to resist germs is decreased, and the lungs invite the pneumonia germs, always lurk ing in the throat and nasal pas sages, to come in and spend a cozy winter. , There is no use to bundle up a child In woolen clothes after he has taken cold. In, fact, the heavy cloth ing only prevents healthy skin func tioning. But on the other hand, it is not wise to wear too light cloth ing since much of the body's resistr ance must be used up in keeping the body warm. If one is not accustomed to being outdoors much during the winter months it would be foolish for him to try the cold, outdoor cure for a cold. It would be much better in such a case to watch the diet care fully and be sure that he is getting sufficient amounts of vitamin A which helps to prevent infectious diseases of the nose, throat and lungs. Foods which are rich in vit amin A are milk, butter, eggs, liver, cod-liver oil (am especially good source), leafy green vegetables such ( jbomJr mud UU4- ME For months to come you'll not have another opportunity to buy the smartest shoes on the street at a price far below normal . . .

These foods are not any more expensive at this time of year than other foods and there is little excuse for not including suf ficient amounts In the everyday diet In summing up methods of pre venting colds, I would say: 1. If you have a severe cold, stay in bed for a day or at least keep away from other people. If a child has a cold, keeping him out of school a day of two may prevent his giving it to many other children and will probably break it up more quickly, too. 2. Watch your diet Eat sufficient quantities of vitamin A. 3. Get lots of outdoor exercise and fresh air. 4. Dress warmly but do not bun dle up. Don't pamper your neck by having it all muffled up every time you step outside. 5. And last, but not least, when you do have a cold, be exceedingly careful to cough and sneeze into a handkerchief and thus prevent scat tering the germs broadcast Mr. and Mrs. Noah Clark were Eight Mile folks in the city on Tu esday for a few hours, while attend ing to shopping. - Thoroughbred Plymouth Rock and R.
