-- PAGE TEN THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1947, BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Posture and Personality By HELEN JAMESON You feel sorry for girls who sit on the sidelinc: at the party. You wonder if they can't do some- thing about it, Many girls have. All of us have known of ugly ducklings who have suddenly turned themselves into swans, *Not beautiful swans, perhaps, but nice enough ones. Note the plain girl who gets her man; she has radiance, she has come alive, Some plain Janes have found a means of transition in mew clo- thes, Smart duds that they've. never worn before, Otheis took up interesting work, became en- thusiastic about it, had *some- thing to offer in the way of in=- teresting conversation, A sideline. sitter needn't always be a sitter. She can get up and dance with the rest of them if she will use her head, cast off social fear, hand herself a little apple sauce. The way a young woman stands , walks and sits gives oth- er people an idea of her charac- ter, puts her in a certain person- ality bracket. If she carries her- self beautifully---with spinal col- umn extended, chest high and head balanced--she is distinctive. With body perfectly posed, she moves with alertness and grace. Age won't touch her, Years hence she will still be erect, graceful, young-looking. Her carriage is what nature intended it to be. Muscles will retain. resiliency; circulation will be active, Post- ur . is related to health as well as to good-looks. i The self-conscious girl is likely to assume inert poses because she lacks mental verve and snap.You know that she is timid by the way she enters a room, by her casual hand-clasp. If she could only liven up! If she could only real- ize that millions of other indivi- duals feel the same way that she does, but manage to hide their feelings.

It need not get one down. It is a fact that erect carriage and poise will promote buoyancy of spirit, If you adopt the atti- tude of courage, you will feel brave. Pull yourself up, shy girls. Put some ginger in your . step. Tell yourself you are just as smart as the next cne, good-looking, and that you intend to have a pleasant social life, Be gracious to everyone. Think of nice things to say and say them. Don't hold back. Other individu- als will be responsive, They run away from shy girls because they don't know how to draw them out, Good carriage begins in the mind. It is dependent upon the mind and the muscles, Muscle health is the result of exercise. If the muscles of the back and shoulders have weakened, good posture is just about out of the question, Fifteen minutes of re- gular calisthenics every day will work miracles for a figure that has gone slightly out of form. Do torso-twisting. Place the hands on the hips; send the up# per portion of the body from side to side. Bénd forward and back.

BUNDESEN, M.D. UNDULANT FEVER SERIOUS MENACE UNDULANT fever is called bru- cellosis by the doctor. It is one of 'the diseases which seem to be claiming more victims with every year. In fact, according to Dr. Thurman L. Rice of Indianapolis, now ranks fourth among infectious diseases affecting country dwellers and may soon become first. It is so prevalent in rural areas because it is contracted from such animals as hogs, cattle, goats and horses. It may also be passed to human beings who drink raw milk from an infected cow. For this rea- son, a number of cases are also found in cities and small towns which use milk' that is not properly pasteurized. . Dr. Rice, who is an outstanding public health authority, believes that fully 70 per cent of the cases among farm families are due to swine. Of course, it is contracted only by those who come in contact with the infected swine, such as the farmer who breathes the dust from the hog lot and gets the mud and dirt from the hogs on his feet and hands. The patient with brucellosis is tired out and run down, He is thin and does not eat well. He has many aches and pains, particularly in the joints. The joints may be stiff and swelling of the lymph glands is commonly present. Headache, back- ache and, of course, fever are also present. Less often there may be such symptoms as cough, dizziness, constipation. The disease frequent- ly becomes chronic; that is, the symptoms continue over a long per- iod of time. There are a number of laboratory tests which are helpful in making a diagnosis, One is known as the agglutination test which is carried out by determining whether or not the patient's blood serum will cause the brucellosis germs to form into clumps. > There is also a skin test which is helpful, This is carried out by in- jecting into the skin a small a- mount of the skin testing material. If the patient has brucellosis, a red spot abeut the size of a quarter forms at the point of injection. Various forms of treatment have been tried for brucellosis. Sulfona- mide drugs and penicillin appar- ently are not of great value al- though they cay be slightly help- ful. Streptomycin seems to give better results. However, it would appear that vaccine treatment, par- ticularly in the chronic cases, is the most effective way of handling this condition. The vaccine must be given over a long period of time starting with a small dose and gra- dually increasing in amount. It is suggested that the vaccine be ad- ministered at least for nine months and often as long as a year. Dr. Mavor J. Moss of Indiana has treated 74 patients with the vaccinz and over 90 per cent-have had good to excellent results with complete relief of symptoms.

LJ Ld college girls will consider this old- fogy talk. But it isn't. -They say they never get tired. But they do, and the accumulative effect of loss of sleep will show up in poor marks in classes, often in a case of ner- vous exhaustion.
