Then, again, the church services

at one mission station in Uganda
there was quite a panic one Sunday

tribes, and that a fight to the death

Once more should 1t be announced
that President Roosevelt does not use
tobacco in any form. One of the leaders
of the anti-cigaret -~ueade in Chicago
had a picture of the president hanging
in her office which Carrie Nation
punched with an umbrella the other
day, remarking that hes a smoker and
a chewer." This was denied, and Mrs.
Nation agreed to give $50 to the anti

WASHINGTON. June 5.--The eXter-

toes by the united efforts of State
organize tions and legislation was the
NOSE important topic of the conference
of the state and Provincial Board of
Health representatives which has just
come to a close here. Uniform legis-

pose was demanded by a resolution
unanimously passed.

all these inquiries agree in the con-
clusion that the mosquito carries in
lection and is largely responsible for
the ravages of yellow and other dan
gerous fevers.
Henry Clay Weeks of Bay Side,
Long Island secretary of the National
Mosquito determination Society read
an elaborate paper on this popular
subject, taking the view that the os-
quito cannot breed without water, am
that therefore if the surface of the
water were coated with oil the mos
quitoes would be unable to propagate
their kind and the dangers due to their
presence would cease to exist.
During the discussion it was contend
ed that, with the proper use of lar
vcides and drainage for eliminating
mosquito breeding conditions, there
would be vastly less loss of life during
the construction Of the Panama canal
than there has ever been in the con-
structOn of similar works.
