Try Miss favourite salad...

CAMBRIDGE

ÁLIFORNIA'S blonde Alice Marle might never have been a tennis star. She might have been a film Astar. May still.

Brothers put her up to tennis when she was fifteen. She beat Helen Jacobs, is champion of America, stands a good chance for Wimbledon. For past five years she's lived with grey-haired coach, Eleanor Tenant, at Los Angeles,

WARM WEATHER NURSING

E

VERY woman has to do a spot of home- nursing sometimes,

and if the patient is in bed for even only two or three days he (or she) will need special attention if he is to be really comfortable.

This is particularly important in warm weather, when two blanket baths a day are essential it the patient is not to be distressed and made restless by feeling hot and alicky.

Elbows, shoulders, heels, hips, and the base of the spine all get extra pressure put on them in bed, and quickly become sore unless properly cared for,

You must help the ski to resist pressure, you must also set the eir- culation going again in these parts.

Make a lather

BEST thing is to lather well with pure soap, rub vigor- ously (not roughly) with a circular movement for a few moments, and then gently wipe off the soup with a towel. Don't rinse.

Next rub in a few drops of toilet enu-de-Cologne and finish with a

add only a few minutes to the patient's blanket bath, but it will ensure comfort.

You can keep a person in bed for' weeks without his body growing red and sore if you observe this single rule with the morning and evening bath.

Avoid hot linen

FREQUENT changes of bed

lien add to a patient's confort, especially in suminer, when sheets and pillowcases soon get hot and creased.

A sheet folded in half and placed under the patient's back and hips will the ends tucked in on either side of the bed is another cooling device.

The sheet (known as a draw sheet) can be drawn from one side to the other and a cool part found for the patient to lie on.

Unless oranges are excluded from the patient's diet, give a drink of orange juice midway through the morning,

It is cooling and refreshing, and if you can put it in a refrigerator for a short time, or stand it on lee, it will be even more welcome on a hot day.

It is also a pleasant drink during the night if the patient complains of thirst. So is lemonade, or barley water to which lemon has added.
