E. Klingberg, is editor of the paper, which has four pages and is published monthly. The paper is for the public. It tells of the activities of the home and its organization. It gives interesting sidelights on life and its problems among a large group of happy chil- dren as seen through the eyes of a young woman. Spring house cleaning and plans for spring agricultural activities are un- der way at the home, the plot en- circling the flag pole in front is be- ing sown with grass seed and will be planted with flowers later. The 15 Just hke LN Gathering Dollars' Just think of being able to step out into your back yard and pick up big, round dollars! Yet that is virtvally what you can do with a few good laying hens about the place.

In experiments to determine the relative effect of various tempera- tures and humidities on the human body, the scientists also found that sweat is the chief factor affecting the eyes when the human body becomes heated. The object of the experiments was! to establish the exact degree of tem- perature and of humidity or ‘“com- fort lines” a human being should .be subjected to in a room. The prob- lem was first attacked several years ago, and the research work has now reached a point where definite results have been obtained. First experi- effects of temperatures and humid- ities on human subjects in still air, and for these a staff of physicians and employes of the society have subjected themselves to great hard-l ships. Variations of Temperature. One of the most important results of the experiments was the discovery | of the great variations of external| temperature which a human being| can endure, and at the same time re- tain his physiological efficiency. An- other fact developed was that in- creasing pulse rate is more the cause of dlscomfort than is body tempera- ture when in a heated room. “While irrelevant to the present study, an attempt was made to de- termine the cause of inflammation of the eyes, and also to determine pro- duces cramps, as so often complained of by industrial workers,” said the report. “On a day when the eyes were nor- mal, a small quantity of sweat, which had been collected during an experi- ment, was dropped into the eye. The be- came inflamed and the eye felt ‘sore.” The sweat collected from the face seemed les sirritable than sweat from the chest or arms. Sweat-bands were ing the sweat from entering the eyes. | There was no inflammation. This proves sufficiently that sweat is the chief factor in producing conjunc- tivitls which accompanies exposure to heat. “It has frequently been stated that workers exposed to high tempera- tures developed severe cramps after drinking ice water. A few of the subjects of these experiments volyn-| teered to drink ice water after about an hour's exposure to high temper- | ature, and two of them, in one ex- periment, drank a quart of ice water in less than 15 minutes without ill effects. Cramps did not develop in any of the subjects at any time.” Heavy Men Lose Weight. On entering and leaving the spe- cially heated chamber, the report shows, loss of weight varied with the individual, thé heavier and stouter! man losing more than the light and | thin one. Notwithstanding this, the lighter man, as a rule, ‘could not en- dure the temperature conditions as long, and complained more of the exhaustion which followed.
