Health Authority Advises Women To Wear Heavier Winter Clothes Women should wear clothes during the winter months to guard against disease, Dr. L. J, Du- mont, superintendent of health, stated today in a prepared article entitled “Timely Health Hints For the Changing Season.” In a previ- our article, Dr. Dumont said that women, wearing light clothing in the summer, were properly clad and men should follow their example by discarding coats. Proper ventilation in living and working quarters is essential to good healtl. Dr. Dumont writes, and a physical examination to determine ths condition of the important bodi- ly organs is advisable “just as you would have someone go over :our automobile before going on a long trip.” Dr. Dumont’s article is as follows: “The changing seaso:s bring with them timely health problems. When the weather changes from the warm days of summer to the colder days of fall and winter, with less sun- Bhine, we must be on guard against the cisorders which this change of weather brings, “Pneumonia, acute bronchitis, xolds, and even scarlet fever, measles and whooping cough seem to go on a vacation during the summer. This being true, what can be done to prevent these diseases from gaining a foothold after their summer decline? The most logical answer to this question is to main- | tal: the summer conditions so far | &s practicable. “The first is to do everything pos- sible to give the naturally limited amount of sunshine, which we en- joy during the winter season, a full opportunity to manifest itself. “Outdoor conditions it is difficult to change, but the indoor conditions should be given careful considera- tion at this time, as much can be done to improve them. The first manifestation of the seasonal change from summer to fall is the lowering of the temperature. This is felt es- pecially by persons whose habits of life are sedentary, that is, not ac- tive, anc by those in the extreme ages of life, the aged and the very young. Keep Air in Motion In the early fall, when heat is usually not available in homes, of- fices and shops, there is a great to close all windows tight- especially at night, in order to This interferes serious- 1y with ventilation which is neces- sary to maintain the body in a Tealthful condition. The most im- portant factor adequate ventilation is a certain amount of m of | the air that surrounds us easily accomplished in the summer, because we live out of doors a great | part of the time, and it is easy to | secure the proper flow or motion of | the air indoors by opening the win- | dows, which is invariably done in warmer weather to keep the rooms cool. “When cold weather comes this condition changes. Windows are closed to keep out the cold and the proper ventilation is not maintain- ed, with the result that the resist- ance of the body is lowered, and persons living under these conditions become susceptible to infection. To guard against these dangers, it is essential that our bodies be in a fit condition. In other words, the body should be kept so well toned up that it can adjust itself readily to changes in temperature. This means | good tone of the blood vessels and heart with an abundance of nervous | energy. A vigorous circulation of the blood can be maintained by plenty of fresh regular exercise, exposure to sunlight, proger food, but not least, by seeing part of the body is fit to functioy properly. To insure this, a physical examination should be made before cold we comes, | to determine if the heart, kidneys, digestive system, lungs and other essential organs of the body are in proper condition and fit to function when subjected to extra hazards. Just as you would have someone go over your automobile before going on a long trip. Air and Sunlight in Home “With the body in good shape and by wearing somewhat heavier clothing in the home, it will be pos- sible to ventilate properly before the fires are started., This is best ac- complished by opening the windows from the top and bottom. In the| daytime it is well to leave the win- dows open to admit sunlight so that the ultraviolet rays, which do not pass through the ordinary window can enter. These rays also nfectant or germ killing For these reasons, then, it is advisable to admit direct sun- light freely into living and working quarters “The general heating of homes &nd shops should not be delayed too long. ‘Burning fuel in the furnace paves fuel in the human machine,’ says Professor M. J. Rosenau, of Harvard university. Home owners are warned not to wait too long before starting furnace fires. Right now is a good tithe to overhaul the heating plant and have it ready for & tryout during the next cold spell. The best temperature to maintain in homes, offices and shops is 68 de- grees Fahrenheit. “It is obvious that you should wear heavier clothing during win- NEW YCRK EXCURSION Four Times Daily sz_;_fl ONE 3 75 ROUND WAY TRIP Return Tickéts Good 30 Days PULLM.

They pleaded not guilty and November 4 was set as the date of their second trial. The three defendants, Paul M. $mith, Clarence V. Smith and John E. Parker, were convicted last Oc- tober following the crash of their investment house of em- lement by agent and trustee in 31 coun's and given long prison terms. In an appeal to the supreme court in which they were upheld, the defendants contended that officers and directors of a corporation can- not be held criminally liable for the actions of the corporation and that since they had acted as officers for the Parker-Smith company they could not be charged with embezzle- e and agent. ion, the supreme courd also exonerated Parker, who was president of the of criminal liability and held that a motion for setting aside the verdict should have been granted in his case by the trial ceort, by supreme court of June Class Nominaticns B.

Doris Dalton (By Herald Reviewer) The tangled web woven by decep- tion enmeshes the Besants and their friends in the three-act play, *“Co- quette,” presented by the New York Players in the Capitol theater this week. In the presentation the com- pany demonstrages that it is capable of handling stark tragedy as well as comedy. Havoc rules when Doctor Besant, a Virginian gentleman of the old school, applies the standards of the age of chivalry to a present day love affair. Seth Arnold, who in last week's play was allotted a mi- nor role, gives a convincing por- trayal of a father whose love for his child disables him from thinking that she may share the weaknesses that flesh is heir to. Isabel Jewell, as the daughter, did a difficult job exceptionally well when she flitted about the stage—a care-free flirt for part of the play and then turned her role into that of a woman marked by tragedy for its own. So as not to spoil the plot for those who are unfamiliar with it the entire story must not be told. Nor- ma Besant, petted daughter of the doctor, has reached a crucial stage in her life when a mother would have been a most useful adjunct but the father alone remains to rule the destinies of his family. With the best intentions he proceeds to wreck forever what little happiness might have been attained by them. Cast- ing aside Stanley ‘Wentworth (Franklin George) who has been a childhood sweetheart, Norma be- comes infatuated with Michael Jeft- rey (John Breeden) who lacks the deeper qualities as well as the pol- ish of a gentleman. A street brawl in which Norma’'s name features, de- cides the doctor to forbid Norma to isee Michael. The boy, who has been at the best shiftless, tells Nor- ma he will go away and make a man of himself and then return to claim her. Exile becoming unendurable Mi- chael returns and sees Norma at a dance. They leave the country club and Norma does not return home until four o'clock the next morn- ing. The same day Michael calls at the Besant house and tells Norma's father that he has decided to marry her. He tells the doctor that mar- rlage would be the easiest solution of their problem. The father, en- raged, asks Norma to verify the truth of Michael's statement and Norma lles—telling her futher that there is no foundation to Michael's claim. The doctor then takes the law into his own hands, procures a revolver and starts out of the house after Michael. ‘What happens later provides Miss Jewell with ample opportunity to display her talent in tragic roles and | ple. {nick of the Waterbury Republican she does so admirably. Jimmie Besant, brother of !\Orm’\ (David Clarke), Joe Reynolds, (Jack Maclennan), and Betty Lee Reynolds (Helen Tenney) provide the com- | edy which relieves the tenseness of | the plot. Forrest Orr as Mr. Went- | worth, a lawyer and father of Stan-| ley, has but little to do but his act- ing is given the same expert hand- ling that he demonstrated in th: previous production by the players. Julia, a negro maid (Edna Archer | Crawford) and Ethel Thompkins, (Doris Dalton) play minor roles. | PUPILS TO SEND FLOWERS A meeting of the Senior High school classes in Problems in Demo- cracy was held this morning.

The wedding of the American widow and the 61 year old bar- onet who found when he reachel England that his~- baronetcy brought no funds with it, took place secretly, he said, at a church in Stafford, October 16. There were neither relatives nor friends present and after a brief visit to Stoke on Trent to see rela- tivs and announce their marriage, the bride and groom sailed for America aboard the Scythia. Sir John first met Mrs. Murdock on a liner en route to Europe. Noel Goss said that his aunt was very beautiful and in her youth was known as the ‘“belle of Stoke.” Before her marriage to Murdock she was Florence Goss, daughter of the late W. H. Goss, founder of the Goss China Works. BORGES ELECTED FEDERATION HEAD Boston Man Governor of Ad- vertising Division New Haven, Oct. 21 (P—V.
