?Virus Ailment
Not To End With
Warm Weather
The now common ailment re
ferred to ai virus infection has
probably been an unwelcome
guest in your home during the
winter. Don't make the mistake
of thinking that just because
warm weather is here, the virus
is done for. It is possible to have
this infection during the Summer.
If you are unlucky enough to
contract the virus, don't loo)t to
your doctor for some miracle
cure. They cant cure you with
any known remedy. They can't
even shorten the length of your
illness.
Unless you have severe symp
toms or high temperature, your
infection probably isn't very
dangerous. If the fever is persis
tent, it may indicate pneumonia
or some serious infection in the
making.
One thing you should never do
is to try to cure ' yourself with
elixirs, patent nostrums or drugs.
These quite often slow up the
body's curative process.
If you have the sniffles, a
stomach ache, muscle pains, a
cough and a slight sore throat,
you should rest, keep warm, eat
a balanced diet. Forget that old
one ? "Stuff a cold and starve a
fever."
If you have slight diarrhea for
a day or two, don't try to stop
it. You' probably couldrit and
this is one way the body elimi
nates the virus.
In case you loose too much liq
uid, try drinking water with a
little salt and baking soda in it
If your symptoms become
severe call your doctor. In short,
if ' your temperature rises above
one-hundred-and -one degrees,
your cough becomes distressing,
your sore throat lasts more than a
day or two, the pain in your
stomach becomes quite sharp ?
call your doctor!
Number Polio
Cases Above 1952
Raleigh ? The number of polio
cases in North Carolina this
year.v is running ahead of last
year, and Caldwell County has
accounted for much of the in
crease.
Dr.? fiyfl T, Foard, epidemiolo
gist for the State Board of Health,
reported last week that through
May, 52 cases of polio had been
reported in the state as com
pared with 29 in the same period
of last year. Twenty of this year's
cases have been reported from
Caldwell County.
Dr. Foard observed that the
number of cases in Caldwell rap
resented "a high prevalence"
considering the county's popula
tion but that he did not consider
it an epidemic. He pointed out
that the cases have been widely
scattered in the county with only
one case reported from Lenoir,
the county seat. He said there
had been one death in Caldwell,
back in April, and only one case
of "residual paralysis."
During May a total of 7 cases
of polio were reported is the
state, and 12 of these were from'
Caldwell. So far, he said, only
one case of June onset has been
reported.

Household Hints
For Homemakers
J READ GARMENT LABELS?
| Look for ?n informative label
stating that the fabric has passed
washing tests. Look tor these
labels or "tags when you shop
Check for washing test and color
fast statements.
Did you know that while most
fibers are washable, washability
in a finished fabric or garment
depends on other factors? It de
pends on how the fabric has been
constructed, dyed, and finished,
and on the construction of the
garment. Poorly made garments
with skimpy seams will not stand
up in washing. Heavily-trimmed
garments will be difficult to
handle in washing and ironing,
regardless of how well the fabric
might wash.
SUMMERTIME WASHING
HINTS ? Perspiration tends to
weaken all lingerie fabrics. Wash
undergarments in very mild soap.
Garments with lace or embroid
ery trimmings, dainty buttons,
etc. should always be handled
carefully. Squeeze carefully, roll
garments in Turkish towel, and
hang to dry.
Wash foundation garments of-"
ten. Never soak them. Use a small
handbrush on soiled parts. Lay
the garment flat on a drain
board or table and brush. Don't
wring it. To remove excess mois
ture, roll lengthwise in a Turk
ish towel so that hose supporters
and metal fastenings cannot cut
the fabric. Dry flat on a towel,
or hang over a clothesline. Press
only the fabric or lace sections
of a girdle or firassiere. Never
dry in direct heat or sunlight ?
both , tend to cause rubber de
terioration and will shorten the
life of your foundation garment.^
