OH, MY ACHING BACK
How to Stay Out of the Hospital
A magic cure for colds is the hope of every doctor who has to face the regular seasonal parades of running noses, weepy eyes, sore throats, and spray-scattering coughs. In spite of the amazing discoveries claimed by radio commercials and pill and patent medicine ads, the cold cure, along with the "link" is still missing.
Mild cold epidemics occur at the opening of school in the fall, with the yearly changes in weather, after Thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring holidays, and in the first deceptively warm, sunny days (and moonlight nights) of spring.
These cycles suggest basic causes for the cold crops—changes in living habits, changes in weather, and changes in contacts. The virus which causes colds thrives on changes. Every sneeze or cough transfer from a cold victim to one not affected acts as a tonic to the virus. It grows in virulence until what began as one mild cold spreads to epidemic proportions.
As victims develop immunity, either by having a cold or by harboring a sub-infective virus, the epidemic dies out. Unfortunately such immunity is of short duration.
Cold treatment runs the gamut of folklore and of scientific medicine. Many of the homespun remedies grandma used are as effective in the high-powered ones advertised in family-sized bottles today, but none of them is the panacea (technical for cure-all).
From studies made in schools and industries, a few facts have been established:
Topping all treatments is rest in bed . . . this means a 24-hour stretch, not a 50-minute snooze in class.
If you are not a therapeutic nihilist (one who does not resort to treatment) and want to do something more active about your cold, try a hot tub bath and a dose of aspirin in addition to the bed rest.
Snakebite cure (liker to you) has no virtue—in the way of curing colds. The numerous sure-cure "6 in 1" cold tablets are rarely beneficial—nine times out of 10 you don't need a laxative anyway.
Sulfa-drugs do not change the course of a virus-produced cold and often are harmful. Rubbing compounds do litte more than give the victim the "greased-up" feeling commonly associated with colds. Promiscuous use of nose drops is not recommended. Medicines to relieve muscle-aching and nasal congestion which accompany colds should be prescribed by a physician.

"The Battle for America"
The virus-produced cold is of short duration. The bacteria-produced complications—bronchitis, ear infections, etc., are the disables and are treated with sulfa drugs, penicillin in some cases, heat therapy, and other procedures used to give relief and shorten the period of illness.
FRASER THEATER
As for vaccines and vitamins in regard to colds:
Wednesday October 31
There are no vaccines effective against the cold-producing virus. Bacterial vaccines, however, may reduce the incidence of bacteria- produced complications.
8 p.m.
YOU ARE INVITED
Vitamins have no specific effect in preventing or curing colds. A marked deficiency of vitamin A present in yellow and green vegetables, fish oils, and milk) make the body more susceptible to the entrance of infections.
So until someone dreams up the cure-all for colds, stick to the timetested remedies your doctor orders and be selfish—don't share your sold with your neighbors.
