Undoubtedly, the common cold is one of the scourges of mankind. Nearly every person is afflicted in the course of a year. The time lost by workers staggers the imagination, representing a serious problem té industry now packing up momentum in connection with national defense. So ‘far, the medical experts have no. certain cure for a cold. This does not mean that you cannot be cured. In fact, nearly everyone that you talk with can give you a sure cure. The trouble is that the cures never seem to \work the same on differént people, or upon the same person: the same wavy every time. In connection with colds, it might be a good idea for everyone who catches a cold to give consideration to those about him. Indiscriminate sneezing, coughing and expectorating inevitably scatters germs which attacks others. A cold, it should be understocd, is highly infectious and consequently, those afflicted should remember that they have a communicable disease. The mistake that many men and women make in con nection with a cold invites them tc more serious maladies Doctors suggest that everyone with a cold should stay in bed. The system should be cleared and the patient should rest and sleep as much as possbile in order to build up body resistance. Must We Die On The Highway? y Traffic fatalities showed a decided increase in the United States during recent months and safety experts are at a loss to explain the spurt in deaths due to automobile travel. This reminds us to remind you, as a potential driver of an automobile, to resist the little impulses that sometimes lead an automobile driver to take a chance. Not only does the habit endanger the safety of the driver, and those in his car, but it is perilous to others who have done nothing to invite increased. danger. a. Regulations for traffic control represent the careful study of those who are giving their time to a serious effort to eliminate traffic dangers. Every automobilist should make it a point of honor to observe all traffic rules. This includes parking regulations. Highway patrolmen and other officers of the law should not hesitate to make cases against those who violate the rules of safety and courts, in which they appear, should not be reluctant to inflict fines. Of course, a fine is not sufficient punishment for a person who operates a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcoholic drinks. The careless individual who recklessly invites homicide should be treated as a national peril. He should be punished as a common criminal and allowed to do some serious thinking in the solitude of a cell. } A Wise Fath Y Professor Samuel C. May, director of the bureau of public administration at the University of California and vice chairman of the State Defense Council, was forced to make a stern, probably heartbreaking decision last week.

There is aways tragedy in a break between father and son. There was undoubtedly bitter despair in Professor May's brief statement, “Kenneth seems to have a martyr complex.”’ But if anything can bring a young man to his senses who has turned against the country that gave him birth, and has espoused the cause of its enemies, certainly his own father’s decision and public reproach should achieve it. Professor May is a wise father; perhaps, when disillusionment sets in, he shall have a wise son. . Wis A Man's 36 . . With 16.500,000 men between the ages of 21 and 36 marching to registration booths on Wednesday, it’s high time family councils as well as public spokesmen did a bit of highly important figuring and determined just when a man is 21 and when he is 36. Offhand, there would seem to be no room for misunderstanding on a point so absolutely unarguable and statisitically verifiable as a man’s age. We're leaving women’s ages out of this. But frecuentlv public reference is made to men only hetv-een the “ages of 31 and 35” being called. This is no doubt due to the belief that a man who has passed his 35th birthday, and is headed toward his 36th, is in his 35th year. This, of course, is not true. A man who has passed his 35th birthday but not yet reached his 36 birthday is in his 36th year and therefore, by terms of the Selective Service eligible for conscription. A young man is not eligible for conscription until he has reached his 21st birthday. We sincerely trust this hasn't compounded worse confusion and given rise to a new variation on the old querv: “Which year was . A.
