HEALTH INSPECTOR !
A BOGUS PRODUCT

Somebody has been trying J to
take health Office business In his
own hands out on Normandy, Yes
terday an incident was related of
how an inspector had been eject
ed from residence by the nurse
because he himself had broken the
quarantine by coming into the
house and making himself vgener-
ally disagreeable over a report
that the inmates had been violat-
ing regulations. Knowing her bus
mess, the nurse in charge of the
case showed him the door.
The quarantine department OF
the health Office is authority for
the statement that no inspector
had been assigned to such case
on Normandy. and that none of
them was mixed UP in the affair.
1t is suspected that some of the
neighbors got the notion that the
quarantine was not being observed
as they thought it should be and
that little bluff at inspecting was
the result. At any rate, it did not
work with the nurse.

CIRCUS CAN COME
TO TOWN NOW

There's going to be circus
here next Monday, but that won't
mean much to the kids that can't
pass for IS years old. The health
board has permitted the Sells
Floto show to come in with the
age restriction, not because there
is much fever now, but because
the board intends to make a thor
ough job of the quarantining while
it is about it.
1t won't be great while any
way until the bars will be let
down, as the fever has ceased to
become menace to the public.
The action of the board in letting
the circus in is proof that the city
is not plague stricken, as other To-
calities seem to have concluded
from the energetic measures taken
here to stamp out what sickness
there was.
There were no new scarlet fever
cases reported today.
There is never an instant's truce
between virtue and vice.-Thoreau

who have held people in the vicin

changed their hunting grounds,
however, for both Bartlett and War
ner were held up near the corner

The two robbers are described
as being quite small. While the
police state they believe them to

Mothers Day.

Grand Army men are in receipt of a
circular from headquarters establishing
Mothers Day" and setting the date
Sunday, May g. On that day it is
requested that veterans of the civil
war wear a white carnation in their
button hole in commemoration of
mother; the mother who gave her con-
sent to them when they went to war
to take up their guns in defense of
their country.
This is a beautiful custom and one
which should be observed.
The good old mothers have passed
that bourne from which no traveller
ever returns, many of them, but their
memory can and should be revered. No
one can tell what the kind hearts suf-
fered TO give up their boys, their hus-
bands, their h )mes, perhaps forever, to
do their duty for their country's sake,
and man who does not drop silent
tear when the memory is restored. has
very little manhood left in his makeup.
Examiner does not believe there is
the realization comes. as come it must,
of what the mothers suffered to see in
many cases their first born shouldering
the musket to go and face a leaden fire
with every chance against him.
Then when word came as it did in
many cases: William was killed at
the battle of Bull Rum" John was
mortally injured and will die. " James
was taken prisoner and is now on his
way to Libby prison or Andersonville, Z"
as the case might be, there to suffer
the most internal tortures and finally to
die before exchanged.
These are few of the thoughts
which should make the simple observ-
ance of that day as sacred. or perhaps
more so, than that which follows May
80, when the entire nation mourns for
its patriotic dead. The former is the
personal commemoration affecting the
soldier boy, and the latter is for the
whole country to take part in.
Remember the duty. Commemorate
It. Think of mother and the old home.
Try to place yourself in her position.
Cement anew the ties of home, even
though your locks are silvered and
sparse it will do you good.
For thoughts of home and mother are
always pure.-San Miguel Examiner

you like by using clabbered cream

rather slow oven, as it burns very
