t — Social Leaders Employ Efficiency System In 1 I icking Their Wardrobes — By Clark B. Kelsey (U. p, staff Correspondent) Chicago — (United Press)- - Effi- 1 clency has Invaded society, and the 1 pushbutton, the card index and the catalogue have entered the social leader's life to stay, a United Press survey reveals. Time for sleep has been rdttced to a minimum, and all of the social amenities are ‘included in milady s dally schedule by means of the injection of 20th Century business methods. Dressing and eating for Mrs. Edith Rockefeller McCormick Is planned systematically. if Mrs. McCormick sees a gown or a wrap which she likes in a shop window, her secretary instructs her maid to send for the garment, If it meets with approval upon inspection a half dozen exactly like it are ordered, so there is always a fresh frock or cloak ready for instant wear. Mrs. McCormick's raiment is numbered; so is her jewelry and every adornment she wears. When she wishes to don the proper attire Cor luncheon, for a dinner party or for the opera, she orders by number instead of inspecting her wardrobe. Mrs. Edward Stotesbury, Philadelphia, a recent Chicago society visitor, brought with her her $5,000,000 wardrobe with two private detectives to guard it. Each evening when she decided to dress, a catalogue containing colored sketches of each-jown, with attendant jewels and capes was presented for her approval, and she selected her outfit for the evening. Queen Marie of Romania did the same thing when she visited Chicago on her recent tour of the continent. 0 _ U- S.

Simple Life Bent Cure For Colds (Written for the United Press) Uy H. H. Hines, M. D. Cincinnati. O. Member Gorgas Memorial Institute • hlcago, (United Press) —Preventive and curative vaccines for colds are becoming very popular. It Is quite the vogue for folks to attempt to bolster up their resistence by a few “shots" now and then. There Is a sound, scientific reason for their use. This method of creating anti-bodies to destroy the toxins produced by the peeulalr infection causing colds is good enough doctrine. To make a poor attempt at a joke, is not to be “sneezed at." But there is danger In depending solely upon vaccines to prevent colds. They create an unstable, passive immunity to colds, a temporary resistance which gives a wholly false sense of security. There is only one way to build up bodily resistance and to produce a more or less permanent active immunity to infections of ail kinds, and that is by right living. Natural immunity to colds will become increas-

iugly active uh people graduul y increaue (heir power born of knowledge to resist Infection. There I* a popular reluslon concerning drifts, which It In difficult to dispel even from the minds of the Intelligent. It In commonly thought thut colds following exposure to draftn are due solely to the cuuaa. They are merely the predisposing cause. Colta are lia< tei iul infections of the reapUratory tract. A draft la nothing more than air in motion and is beneficial not harmful, if properly controlled and provided that the exposed are in good physical The phyatciully unfit who so sedulously avoid air currents within doors could eafe’.y Ignore the draft bogey if their powers of resistance were developed and increased by hygienic living. Overeating, impure air, lack of proper exercise, insufficient sleep, c mstipatluu an "untrained skin" due to inauffident or improper bathing, and woriy are the prime factors which in various combinations of unphystological habits render people unfit to withstand the teeming germ-life which finds lodgment along the lespiratory tract. The mistake is nearly always made

of placing the b'.ame fur phyalclul disability on only uue factor, the correction of which is deemed sufficient to withstand dlseaHe. A well-rounded, evenly balanced regime of hygienic living Is what Is needed to fortify the system against bionchitiH. pneumonia, and tuberculosis, as well as diseases of the circulatory and digestive truets. Tlie average inun in ordinary good health does not want to live hygienic-1 u ly. He is sutl fied to go along blithely and carelessly indifferent to tlie menace of disease which may be just around the corner, Then he 1s tripped up, his insouciance is dispelled and
