A Marvel Of the East.

Among other feats in the east the
learning by heart OF the Koran is very
widespread. Not only men. but wom-
en- and children. can be found who can
repeat the holy book from beginning to
end without a mistake. Taking 1t In
round numbers. the Koran contains.
together with the additions. which are
included in the recitation. some 10000
words. This is about the length Of an
average up to date novel. but. unlike
the novel. there are no connecting links
the whole book being a confused and
much mutilated jumble-to enable the
reciter to remember. To make the
least error would be a deadly sin. yet
even children can go through It. But
this is not all. For an Arabic child to
recite the Koran is wonderful enough.
no doubt. but he understands what he
is saying-it is not 10 him an unknown
language-but for a child of another
nation to recite It from beginning to
end. without understanding the words
he is saying. is a much more wonder
full feat Of memory. and very few OF
those outside Arabia who can recite
the Koran know more than few OF
the simplest words. II they know those.

CONSERVING THE
GREATEST RESOURCE
BY Clement storer FOutsr.

Pure, undefled water, clear and I
sparkling, without any trace OF quail |
ties ulterior to good health-water that
can be partaxen Of with the surety that
1t Is pure-that is what we want and
must have.
DIR. George Kober, Of the George
town University. says: water is
prime necessity 70 man, not only as
an article OF food, but also for the
proper degree Of cleanliness Of person,
clothing and dwellings. SO. homes
sprang first into existence wherever
nature yielded a bountifui supply of
water. Look where we may the land
supplied with a spring or traversed by
stream constituted the first choice
Of our sturdy pioneers"
Now, the amount OF water available
for a community, even perhaps Of a
greater multitude than with which we
are confronted depends, in a measure,
on the degree of precipitation; but this
precipitation must be conserved.
DIR. kober quotes Tanning, an un-
questioned authority, who gives the
average precipitation as 40 inches for
New England and the Middle states.
One inch Of rain would amount. ac-
cording TO Church, to nearly 1O1
(gross) tons per acre or on a house
roof OF say 20 by 20 feet area, one
inch Of rain would be about $50 gal
Ions. With a rainfall OF 40 inches per
annum this would amount to 10000
gallons, or % gallons per day. The
average daily supply per capita IN
most of our Northern cities ranges
from 20 to 127 gallons or more.
IL is not so much a question OF the
source OF supply as il is the delivery
Of quality "et pure ct simple" For
years city water-at least the kind
supplied by the average municipality
has been blamed for epidemics Of vari-
Gus diseases. In Wilmington we are
In the primary experimental stage:
trying, so to speak, to deliver pure
water without definite knowledge of
perfect results.
The combined average annual death
rate from typhoid fever in cities with
a contaminated water supply, accord
ing TO Dr. Wilbur. of the Census Blu
reau, has been 694. and, after cor
rective measures and clean filtration
In the same places it fell to 1913 per
100000; a reduction of 70.5.
DR.. Kober. in his exhaustive report
goes on to tell us that what has been
said Of typhoid fever is ejually true OF
other water-born diseases like chol-
era. dysentery, cholera morbus. diar-
rhoeal diseases and the transmission
Of the eggs of intestinal and other
parasites. because the germs or Eggs
OF these diseases are present in the
intestinal tract and presumably also in

matter. Pure water is absolutely nee.

essary and must be had to protect the
people of Wilmington from an epi-
demic that surely will come TO us II
our water supply is not only conserved
as TO quantity; but also looked after
as to quality.
If the Brandywine is to continue to
be polluted by the sewage from sources
near its head. It would be well for
Wilmington TO seek a water supply
from deep borings, or source where
absolute control may be had of the
supply.
