I ' Jjfl THX PEOPLE, BAEHWBLL, 8. 0. An International Service Built on Tiny Profits Per Pound Some industries have been able to get in step with war demands more quickly than others. In many cases mighty plants have sprung up—but at a prodigious cost. The packing industry was able to adapt itself to unheard of demands more quickly, perhaps, than any other industry. And this was because the vast equipment of packing plants, refrigerator cars, branch houses, etc., had been gradually developed to its present state of efficiency, so that in the crucial hour it became a mighty international system for war service. And how had this development taken place? Not by making vast inroads into the capi tal wealth of the country, but largely by using, from year to year, a portion of the profits, to provide for expansion.

In fact, It Is desirable to have several ex- aminatlo.js made a month apart. Such examinations cannot be made through the clothing nor can they he carried 1 out In two or three minutes. If the lungs are found to be free from tuber- ; culesls every effort should be made to keep them so. This can be done by right living, good food and plenty of ! fresh air.” Danger Sign*. j The Surgeon General warned espe cially against certain danger signs, such as “decline” and “colds which hang on.” These, he explained, were often the beginning of tuberculosis, “If you do not get well promptly. If your cold seenis to hang oh or your health and strength decline, remember that these are often the 4*arly signs of tuberculo sis. Place yourself at once under the care of a competent physician.
