When the weather permits, the win- dows should be opened during the hours of sunshine, for the health-giv- ing rays cannot pass through glass. The child should be examined every six months at least, in order that any existing foci of disease in nose, mouth or throat may be detected early and removed as completely as possible. An antiseptic mouth wash, gargle and nose spray should be used morning and evening, and the bowels should function normally. Attention toydiet is Important.

Sherrill, who met the ruler when he was. heir to the throne in Paris in 1921, through Count Chinda, former Japanese. Ambassador in Washington, and old friend of General Sherrill. The Prince had made an extensive tour of Europe and despite his youth had left behind an impression of an extraordin- ary grasp of Western ideas of govern: ment, economics and social institu- tions, said General Sherrill. "Prince Hirohito was not only an in- teresting personality," he said, "but above all an "interested" personality. When he learned form Count Chinda that I had spent several months in Japan in 1919 he questioned me at length on my impressions of his coun- try, and displayed the keenest Interest in every phase of Western politics and government. It was at a large recep- tion given by the French in his honor that I met him, and {pn the midst of a brilliant assemblage of Occldentals he was a figure of outstanding Interest. Simple and dignified in his bearing, he had the face of a student, representing all the traditions of his ancient coun- try, yet showing an eager desire to learn everything possible of the civili- zation o fa different world.
