The., Common, Cold There is no cure-,all for the common. cold. But outgroWing colds may be one way to hold, out against sniffles and sore throats. One intensive study, con- ducted by the Child. Research Council of the University of Colorado, showed, that the pre- school child had the greatest number of colds. As age in- creased, colds declined. Subjects in the study -- 116 boys and lll girls -- were volunteered by their parents be- fore they were born. Their illness records were kept for decades, in some cases as many as 34 years. The results? Severe infec- tions were most common in the very early years. But they decreased gradually after age two in boys and age five in girls. Mild infections peaked in preschool and early school years, slowly declined until mid- adolescence, then dropped off abruptly. During the year,. most colds occurred between October and May. Colds were scar c e during June, July, and August. The study suggested that anti- biotic therapy did not alter the number or the kind of infection. Also, the passage of time had 'not influenced the incidence of respiratory infection since 1930. R a sults of the study were pub- lished in a recent issue of the American Journal of Diseases of Children, a professional pub- lication of . the American Medical Association. Outgrowing colds can be a long scratchy wait. And millions of adults are still laid low by res- piratory infections every year.

Because of dif- ficulties in his religious belief he went to spend time on the Mediterranean. While there he became ill. Due to delays on his return trip home he was most depressed. As the ship lay in port Newman sat on deck watch- ing the great expanse of sea. A great calmpossessed him and the verses of "Lead Kindly Light" were the result. This hymn ex- presses the experiences of many people and their hope in Eternal Life. Mrs. Thomas was in charge of the business. It was decided that each member's name should be placed on the Cenfennial Quilt which is being made by the Wom- en's Institute. Miss Luca and Miss Skelton were • named as delegates to the Presbyterial in Stratford. Mrs. Rann and Mrs. Carl Hemingway volunteered a taxi service to meetings and ladies who would like to make use of the service may do so by contacting them. Miss Lucas continued the Study of Africa. An interesting history of the Life and work of Dr. Sidney Gilchrist was given. He spent 40 years as a medical and Christian missionary among the Lepers in Angola. He saw the churches' role as serving the whole man, physically and spir- itually. His work will continue through the donations made to the Gilchrist Fund by interested organizations. The Ombundu people have written a letter to their Canadian Brothers in Christ expressing their thanks for the lOve of this great man and their hope that we will continue to support his work. The world was saddened to learn of his death in 1970 following a car accident in Alberta. THE BRUSSELS POST, FEB. 9, 1972-5
