MEDICAL CARE URGED.
Health Officer Woodward Desires
Better school Inspection.

With the conviction that medical IN
spection In the schools should be estab-

pairing TO embody in HIS annual report
10 the Commissioners an urgent plea for
an increase IN the force. and also the
organization OF a corps OF nurses.
The school inspectors now employed. -
says DR. Woodward, are barely able 20
guard against outbreaks OF contagious
disease. and 10 examine such supposedly
ailing defective children as are referred
10 them by teachers. Anything like a
systematic examination OF ali school
children for the purpose OF determining
whether they are Of normal physical de-
velopment and NJ for the discharge Of
their duties is entirely out OF the ques-
ton
The government SO long as Il main
tains a public school system cannot hope
TO escape the responsibilities incident
thereto. A badly heated. badly lighted.
or badly ventilated schoolroom may be
as injurious as a workshop or store OF
the same type. and prolonged hours of
school work may be as effective for harm
as prolonged labor OF any other kind"

The feast Of st. Jane de Chantal. the
founder Of the Visitation Order. was
solemnly commemorated at the Vista
ton Convent in Connecticut avenue yes
terday and in the Visitation converts all
over the world ST. Jane de Chantal and
St Francis de Sales organized the first
community Of the order June s. 1910. in
Annecy. Savoy. and France. and plans
are already being made 20 celebrate the
third centenary Of the order with elab-
crate ceremonies.
At the Convent OF the Visitation in
Connecticut avenue the occasion was cell
ebrated by exposition or the blessed sac
rament ell day and with solemn benedic-
ton at o'clock and an exhortatiOn by
Father Christopher Sullivan. S. J., OF
the new stan OF teachers at Georgetown
! University.
In his sermon 20 the sisters Father
Sullivan dwelt mainly upon the fact that
unless the rules and manner OF living in
stituted and observed BY the founders OF
eny religious order are adhered to- the or
der will gradually drift more and more
away from the ideals set for It by the
I holy men or women who organized Il, and
viii eventually perish. He cited many in
stances illustrating this fact
Words an Onspiration.
81 am the way. the life. and the
truth Father Sullivan said. land these
words OF Christ are the inspiration OF all
our religious orders. Men and women have
always been struck by the beauty and
simplicity Of Christ's life. and they have
been eager 10 follow His example They
have done so. and have received a com
fort. quiet. and solace that is given but
to the chosen In this life. But TO attain
these things they must follow out fully
the examples set by Christ and His fol-
! lowers. They must observe rules. II you
wish to term them such. and must ad-
here 10 these laws OF conduct
ITO do this better religious orders with
fixed customs are formed much in the
same manner that the state with the
constitution IS formed. and the state
would perish were the fundamental prin-
clples Of its constitution not observed.
so would the religious order fall apart
/ II the primary and life-giving laws laid
down by It's founders are swept away
and superseded by any later sOphistic
principles OF modernism.
The Visitation Order. the feast OF
| whose founder we are celebrating to-
day. has kept alive the old rules. and il
owes ito long life and success 20 this
/ fact
| Let It's members work on as they have
/ done in the past, resting assured that
st. Jane de Chantal and ST. Francis de
Sales are guarding and directing their et-
forts, waiting for the day when their
task will be finished and when the Lord
OF Hosts, taking them by the hand and
leading them 10 their etsrnal abode OF
happiness. Will greet them with that in
! effably sweet salutation, We'll done, thou
good and faithful servant "
During the services an appropriate mu-
steal programme was played on the organ
by Miss Mamie Mullaly.
AT the Visitation Convent IN George
town the celebration has been deferred
until next week. owing 20 the fact that
the renovation Of the chapel. which has
been in progress during the summer. has
not been completed.

The Growth of Fraud.

Since Solomon and his forebears de-
clared divers weights and divers meas
ures an abominatiOn. the fraud mas
grown, and, especially the sophistica-
ton of weights and measures by the
crafty use of adulterants, was uncon-
trolled until about the year 1873. In
Science of November 6 Mr.. A u: WIN
ton government chemist at Chicago,
ESSAYS to point out the reasons for this
lack of control.
In the first place, the complexities of
demand and of invention in producing
commercial articles that can be sue
cessfulIy initiated have increased, and
are still increasing. Food, drugs
paints. oils, chemicals, and fabrics have
thus become debased. The primitive
manufacture at home of butter, lard.
and cheese. starch, yarn, and cloths,
has been supplanted by mills and fac
tories; this reduced the cost and spared
the housewife, but deprived her OF
first hand knowledge of the genuine
ness of such products. Then, TOO:
adulterants have multiplied, many or
them being the result Of the highest
scientific research. Solomon would to-
day be fairly affrighted at the long nse
of denominations in oils, acids, dyes
personalities, and kinds of habit-form-
ing drugs employed in modern refine
ments of cheating in goods
Before it was curbed, and because of
it's subtleties of invasion, the evil OF
aduIterants acquired monstrous pro-
portions. The Connecticut experiment
Station was established in 1875 for Of
fetal inspection and analytical control
of foodstuffs. Since then the cities OF
the nation and all the civilized nations
have built up an imperfect enginery of
defense against the fraud of adultera-
ton. The old Scriptural rage is at last
intelligently directed against the sin in
it's new guises. Before long 1t Will be
as generally condemned and punished
as IS the infraction of the command
ment against stealing.-New York

An evangelist who is holding meet
ings at ottawa succeeded in getting
every woman in the congregation to
remove her hat. by the following re-
quest made at a recent meeting:
Ladies will please remove their hats.
I know that in these days it is some
times very hard for women to take
their hats off at public services, and I
don't expect the impossible. They tell
me that so much false hair is being
worn that women can hardly get their
hats off without disarranging then
hair very much. Now. I'm not IN
reasonable about these matters. I
won't expect you who are wearing
false hair to take your hats off. The
others, of course, will remove their
hats"
