GOOD CITIZENS VERSUS STINKER When you are coming down with it or "threatened" with it, it you prefer that malarky, you may pretend it la Just a Dad, heavy, obstin ate or seasonal "cold" and get away with the deception read ily enough, for your crime has the sanction of many health author! ties, physicians and most of the laity. Never the less it is a ui. ttrady crime, and particularly despicable beoause it brings unhappiness. misfor tune, illness and too often death to innocent people. Neither you nor the doctor, any doctor, can tell In the early stage, the stage when the illness Is likely to be most communi-l WJ cable, whether it will prove to be infantile paralysis, virus pneumonia or measles, perhaps; or whether it will prove to be only a mild coryza or even a non-communicable allergic re action. Therefore, if you pretend it is just a bad "cold" and con tinue unmasked at work or play until the illness either passes or becomes so serious that you have to go to bed with it, you delib erately expose every one who is unfortunate enough to come within conversational spray range of you to heaven only knows what illness. Unmasked. I say. If one with possible diphtheria, scarlet lev er, influenza or other acute res piratory infection be properly masked he or she will not infect others in casual association in business, work, play or social life. Properly masked, does not mean Just wearing a wisp of gauze over the face in the phony fashion of the great surgeon and the heroic nurse of the movie. It means wearing a mask made of not less than ten layers of gauze (cheesecloth) that has a mesh of 32 threads to the inch. The mask need not be white; It may be any color or black, But it must be worn at all times when any other person Is within con versational spray range. Conversational spray range is generally a distance of less than six feet; in quiet conversation it is only two or three feet; in loud conversation, shouting or laugh ing it is four or five feet. Re member the range next time you find yourself the target of-a S-T-I-N-K-E-R who goes about unmasked pretending he has just a "cold." Spray is the form in which the droplets of moisture or muous are expelled from nose and mouth of a person who talks, laughs, shouts, coughs or sneezes. If the person has C-R-I (any on coming respiratory infection) the moisture or mucus droplets are likely to contain the germ of the disease. Some of the droplets are large enough to be visible to the naked eye or to be palpable when they spatter you, but most ly they are microscopic and in visible and impalpable but they carry misery, incapacity, illness Czechs May Desert To Western Country London, Mar. 16 ill .P In formed sources predicted today that Czech diplomats throughout the world will begin deserting to the west as result of the oust er of Czech Foreign Minister Vladimir dementis in Prague. Clcmentls' "resignation" was announced by the communist government in Prague yesterday. Exiled Czech sources here said he probably was under arrest already and might be tried as a Titoist. Everyone Loves It and death Just the same. The purpose of the mask is to screen out these droplets. Of course a mask is just as effective for one to wear when exposed to the conversational spray of S-T-I-N-K-E-R-S as it is for one to wear when coming down with or ill of the C-R-I. It catches the germ-laden spray droplets going or coming. The oplor of the mask is of more than mere whimsy. A good many persons who haven't the moral courage to wear a white or blEck mask might have suf ficient character to wear one of neutral or flesh color which would nut be so conspicuous. The ideal mask is not white nor black. It has no color at all. It is transparent. It is more ef ficient in trapping or screening out moisture droplets than the finest gauze mask. It is more comfortable to wear for hours or constantly. It is washable and dries immediately so that the wearer may have a clean mask as often as he likes. I refer to the mask devised by Lewis J. Silvers, M.. D. especially for physicians, dentists and others who give personal service to wear while at work. The Silvers mask or something of the kind should be worn by every doctor who treats or examines nose and throat cases, every dentist, every barber or hair dresser, every manicure, every oculist or optometrist or optician, every nurse who attends patients with respiratory infections, every cashier at an open window, for his or her own protection against whatever the patient or client has I as well os for the protection ol , patient or client against what ever the doctor, nurse or attend-; ant has.
