that vaccination is not obligatory. 1t
would shortly eradicate the word
smallpox" from medical compendiums
and be blessing to the universe. A
few weeks ago asked DIR. Hubbard,
one of the local physicians in charge,
how many vaccinations he had done
since the diagnosis of smallpox had been
made. mot over forty" was his an
swer. This is a really shocking state
of affairs when the population of White
Stone District is over four thousand.
The value of vaccination where the
disease of smallpox has already begun
was never fully estimated by me until
saw the cases at Christ Church. In
every case the disease was much milder
in character and pock marks less
severe. From the looks of the place
where the vaccine virus had been rub
bed in, one would have said it had not
taken in many cases. 1t apparently
had in consideration of the mildness of
disease which followed.
suggestion occurs to me, one which
the county has undoubtedly considered
and which, for its own benefit, it should
act upon. All the clothes belonging to
those afflicted should be burned-not
only those they wore when they came
to the pest house, but all those left at
home. The county should replace out
its own pocketall apparel thus destroyed.
Fumigation is not sufficient. The sum-
mer season is of advantage both in the
lesser degree of severity which accom-
panies the disease and in checking its
extension. At present moment the
disease is under good control. Thanks
to the vigilance and skill of those in
charge, you have. all been spared a
calamity. 1t. is now up to the county
to permit those in charge to bring the
affair to a satisfactory conclusion. This
cannot be done by Tightening of purse
strings. Burning of bed is not suffi-
cient. Burn everything which has been
associated with patient unless it can be
made clean by boiling. Let the pest
houses be burned when day of useful
ness is over. / have little doubt that
your Representative by application to
the government would receive immedi-
ate financial aid if the county is unable
to meet expenditures required. Such
an appeal instead of lessening the dig
nifty of the county to the eyes of the
outside world would enhance it consid-
erable, since it would show thought
fulness for the welfare and health of
those we have never seen nor will ever
know. In the final fulillment of a work
lies its chief value.

ODE TOMlLLlAM & MARY COLLEGE

(By one OF our William aud Mary students
in William and Mary Literary MagazineJ
Dear, sacred, fair and honored halls,
| fain would sing song to thee
OF a message dear from over the sea,
That gave to us thy sacred walls,
And made thee an honored name,
And cast thyself in living fame.
Two hundred years and more
Thou hast been standing here,
And yet thy record is as clear
As the waves that beat upon the shore,
And send thy name in every cline,
Resounding with the din of time.
About thy honored, sacred halls
The ivy green doth gently cling,
May the old bell never cease to ring
That bids us to thy ancient halls,
As with our footsteps firm and strong
In thy fair halls we tread along.
Oh! thou who art so great today
Who gave to us our Washington,
Our great and glorious Jefferson,
And others not so great as they
A million thanks we give thee thus
For the lessons thou hast taught to us.
Stand, standye sacred walls, still standl
And never die and never fall,
For thou, though oldest of them all,
Art dearest in this mighty land;
Sostand and show to the gaze of the world
That thy fair flag is never furled
But farewell, once more farewell!
In future days III think of thee
Thou who hast given life to me,
And others, too, I'll gladly tell
of thy honor, glory, and living fame,
Of thy sacred walls and honored name.
