H ealth— Army Treats Even Minor

{Ailments

By JANE STAFFORD Science Service Writer WHEN JOHN JONES, civilian, got a cold or a blister on his heel from his week-end tennis or golf, Mrs. Jones had to plead and nag him into staying in bed or at least seeing the doctor on his way to work. Too often, in spite of her pleading and the doctor's warning, he insisted on “keeping going” with such minor ailments until “blood poisoning” or pneumonia got him ‘down, Mrs. Jones need not worry about John’s neglecting colds and blisters now that he is in the army. The army rule requires every minor ailment, even a cut finger, to be reported. John’s sergeant, who has no use for a half-sick and therefore only half-efficient man, sees to it that John does report fo sick call and that if the doctor orders bed, John goes to bed, probably in the hospital where he is given expert care for whatever ails him. . ” t ” THE EXCELLENT health conditions in the army, just announced in a report from the office of the surgeon ‘general, result in part at least from this practice. If he is coughing or shows even the slightest sign of chest involvement, an x-ray picture of his chest is taken at once, to determine the extent of the trouble. And of course he gets prompt sulfa drug treatment if pneumonia threatens. Deaths from all respiratory infections, including colds, bronchitis, influenza and pneumonia, have been remarkably low, running from one-

Beauty— Exercise Gets To Seat of Weight Woes

By ALICIA HART ° Times Special Writer SO MANY WOMEN write dolefully about their derriere probiéms —big ones, always—that I guess two things. Ome is, women are wearing slacks which aren’t too becoming’ in the sense of coricealing. The other is, the boys and girls are doing some pretty suc-

| cessful kidding—and that, by the

way, can be misleading. - + It's true that nobody cottons to a slovenly, slatternly figure of a woman. But don’t let that fact give you the idea that the boys don’t like to see a substantial

§ | curve.

o ” ” HOWEVER, if I couldn't take the kidding, I wouldn't wear the slacks where I knew they'd invite comment. And if I were really big and soft, I'd exebcise. Like so— Sit with legs outstretched, feet together, hands on floor in back of you. Raise torso high off floor and drop to floor, first on one side, then on the other. Let your waist have a good swift twist, and don’t mind pounding as you land. (Only, of course don’t bruise tissue.) Then sit up straight, tummy in, legs straight forward, head up, hands on hips, and do what the

calls “hip walking.” That is: lift the legs from the hips

and push forward without bending

the knees.

Florida Resort Prepares for Fall Tourists’

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Aug. T. —Even at this early date, Florida hotelkeepers and those who cater to the fall and winter tourist trade are looking forward to their busy season. A flood of inquiries regarding accommodations here has prompted the city information bureau to put a battery of stenographers at work informing correspondents that adequate hotel and apartment rooms will be available. ‘ St. Petersburg’s designation as an army aviation replacement center, it was said, had given force to the rumor that this resort would be unable to entertain its usual horde of sun worshippers. Although several thousand trainees have -been sent here, the number, it was pointed out, is a mere drop in the bucket compared with the quarter million visitors for which accommodations exist,

Advise on Gas. Cards

During the height of the winter season, the bureau officials said, far more visitors arrive in a single week than the total army contingent now quartered in the city. Hotels occupied by soldiers include the Vinoy Park, Soreno, Jungle, Huntington, Princess Martha, Pennsylvania, Martha Washington, Don Ce-Sar, Dennis, Pheil, Poinsettia, Mari-Jean and Bonham. The Chamber of Commerce is advising motorists residing in states where gasoline has not been rationed that gas tanks be filled in Alabama or as near to the Florida state line as possible. At Tallahassee the motorist may then obtain a gas Tationing card which will enable him to drive to St. Petersburg.
