It la generally believed that the I foremost factor in prediaposing a person to a cold ia the individual^ t failure to adjust himaelf to sudden changes of temperature. Some other factors are mental and phy 1 sical distu bances, lack of aleep, e* ceases of all types, and allergies. , Chilling of the body appeara to i be a necessary prerequiaite for the development of a cold ? being cold does not offer the virtu the neces my environments to' produce Ue disease.

Thia chilling cauaes abnormal changes in the mucous membrane of the nose and the normal body defense to the in vading virus is weakened and the virus has a strong foothold and will stay around for a while. The early symptoms of a cold are dryness of the membranes of the nose and throat, sneezing and chilliness, congestive headache and pain in the nasal passages. Low grade temperature Is usually pres ent and general malaise and body toxicity is present. The acute cold may laat for only a few hours to a few days. If the cold persists longer than a few days then complications in the upper or lower respiratory tract have developed, this being due to the secondary bacterial invaders becoming entrenched becauae of lowered tissue resistance. In the next column we will tell some of the suggested ways for preventing colds. easiest travel on earth T RAILWAYS From Imk to: OneTWiy Charlotte $ 3.45 Tampa, Fla 18.35 Miami, Fla 21.70 Washington, D.

INDUS AID The United States has been ask ed, and apparently will agree, to forego its new "buy American" policy in a major new aid package for India and Pakistan. The package has been worked out by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development. It is meant to serve as a catalyst for the settlement of the Indus basin dispute between the two nations. PATIENCE ON CUBA The United States will continue its attitude of patience toward the Cuban Government of Premier Fidel Castro. This became known after President Eisenhower had considered the deteriorating Uni ted States-Cuban relations at a re cent White House conference.

King St. ? Boone, N. C. ?Ss Household Hints By FRANCES DELL Flower show judges rate ar rangement* according to certain established rale*. This makes both the Judgiug and the arranging much easier. In either case, all one ha* to do is study lh* established rules. There are two sorts of rules. The first concerns the technique and control of material used in an ar rangement. The second has to do with imagination and beauty of design. The first is important because it would be of no use to have good taste and imagination, if you could not control the plants and ma terials to be used. When studying the vartoua rules of flower arranging, there are al ways a few people who, in their effort to create aomething dra matic or different, go in for tech nical facility so strongly that their results are always stylized and too studied. This is s fault that is all too comon. The first rule for good arrange ments is to be sure that holders and such do not show. This does not apply to decorative holders or rocks. When entering an arrangement in a show, there is a rule which prohibits artificial coloring unless the schedule states that it may be used. Also, avoid the use of any material on the state conservation list. For flower shows the arrange ment must not touch the back ground or hide walls of the niche. For home use this would mean that the arrangement ahould be the proper size for the space it is to decorate. KEEP YOUR OWN ROOM SPIC 'N SPAN ? Stock a small tote bas ket with materials used regularly in cleaning your room. A reed or split fruit basket Is especially good and they don't coat much. It will save time, extra step* and worry. You'll need things like furni ture polish and wax, whisk broom, window cleaner, roll' of paper towels, air freshener, dust mitt, extra clean cloths, and a small dustpan. .If you tuck the basket on a shelf in your cloaet, you're ready in a Jiffy come clean-up time ? no hunting around to collect supplies. TIP: Before you start cleaning, tape a small paper bag to your apron or Jeans. In it you can drop stray bobby pins, pins, clutter, etc. as you go along. ' '"r,u r While you're dusting don't, neg lect little items such aa light bulbs, pictures, and lamp shades which you can bruih clean gently with ? Milt facial tlasue or a brush. Why not fatten paper towel holder*, in color to match your bedroom, to buck of doaet door? You'll find doaena of uaea for paper towela in your weekly clean-up program. CAMPAIGN SPENDING A major revision of the outdated law controlling election-campaign spending and reporting ha* pasaed the Senate with a vote of 90 to 22. The bill goes far beyond what Its moat enthusiastic Senate back ers had expected in tightening re porting requirements snd closing loopholes that have made the old Corrupt Practices Act of 1929 vir tually ineffective for controlling modern campaign financing. ICE TEATS DUCK Asheville, N. C.? When a duck sleeping la ? Like awoke recently, he found that hie tail feathers were tree an ia ice.
