CUB SCOUTS HEARD FROM I have been reporting all the news of our Brownies and Girl Scouts since school began and now we welcome Cub Scout Pack 142. Marcella Lynott and Sandy Young are th&4en mothers in Den 1 and they have 15 young boys they keep busy each week. All the boys and their families put on their Halloween costumes and were guests in the home of Mrs. Lynott last week. Marcella outdid herself planning the event; there was an outdoor cart ride, a fortune teller, craft table, scary music room, apples on a string (hard to find blindfolded) "pin the wart on the witch" and the highlight of the evening, a genuine pinada. Brett Jackson was the lucky guy whose stick hit the right spot that allowed all the goodies to fall; There was also plenty of apple cider, donuts and candy that everyone enjoyed throughout the evening.

For most of us, a few days in bed, a few more days of rest, aspirin and plenty of fluids to drink, both hot and cold, is the best treatment for a severe c<rid. Hardly any other infectious disease can match the record set by the common cold - an average of three colds every year for each person in the United States. That's some 600 million colds a year. Colds are caused by viruses, and there are more than 100 types of cold viruses. Once you are infected by a certain virus, you are immune to it - at least fen* a while, but you can catch several colds during the w i n t e r b e c a u s e , although you develop a temporary immunity to that particular cold virus, you don't develop immunity to all the others.

There are eight s y m p t o m s u s u a l l y associated with the common cold, and they occur over a period of one to two weeks. They are sore throat, sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, aches and pains, mild fever, nasal c o n g e s t i o n a n d c o u g h i n g . T h e y generally occur in that order, but not always. Any symptom can occur at any time, and some symptoms may even be repeated during the progress of a cold. The cold remedies available today may make you feel more c o m f o r t a b l e b y relieving symptoms, but they won't cure the cold. It's probably better not to take a medicine that relieves, say 12 symp­ toms, if you are not having 12 symptoms. That means- you are taking drugs your body does not need. There is a possibility of complications from a common cold. Infection can spread to your ears and sinuses. The very old and the very young are more likely to have complications because their disease-fighting ability is low. Usually, there is no need to see a doctor if you have a cold. But, there are many serious illnesses that start out with the same symptoms as a cold. So, if your symp­ toms become worse instead of better after a few days, then see your doctor. For all practical purposes, there is nothing you can do to avoid catching a cold, short of becoming a hermit and hibernating. There are however, a few things you can do that may lessen your chances of catching a cold and help avoid complications when you do get one. First of all, keep your natural resistance up through a good diet and plenty of sleep, and exercise. Secondly, it helps to keep the humidity up in your home. And keep the t h e r m o s t a t d o w n . Overheating your home dries out the air and this, in turn, will dry out the mucus membranes in your nose and throat. Finally, stay away from people who have colds. It is not a good idea to "starve a cold." When you have a cold you should eat and drink sensibly, with emphasis on fruit juices and hot liquids. If you need further information about the common cold, contact the Illinois Department of Public Health, Division of Disease Control, 535 West Jef- f e r s o n S t r e e t , Springfield, 111. 62761.
