The Prevention OF Diphtheria
and Scarlet Fever in our schools.
Every fall after the opening OF
the schools, Epidemics OF diph-
liberia and scarlet fever appear.
Such epidmics are unnecessary,
and it is deplorable that we are
so impractical as to have them.
Every child should be inspected
when school opens and closely
observed by parents and. teachers
every day. We all know OF child
rem being ordered off to school
when their languid manner, re-
fusal to eat. flushed face, coated
tongue, bad breath, cough, sore
throat all told plainly they were
sick. Very frequently the above
symptoms, which may or may not
pass away in a day or two, are
caused by mild diphtheria or mild
scarlet fever. If a child has one
or the other of these diseases, no
matter how mildly, they are Ii
able to transmit the infection to
others who hen may have a Sc
we're attack. A clean, we'll ven
ated. disinfected school room, IN
dividual drinking cups are essen
tial to keep away epidemics, but
more important is the keeping
out of school every child that Is
sick in the slightest degree. The
law, recognizing that sick child
should never be in school, com
mands as follows All teachers
all school trustees and all heal n
officers shall not permit attend
ance in any private, parochial OF
public school of any pupil affect
ed with a severe cough, a severe
cold. itch. lice or other vermln, OF
any contagious disease, or who is
filthy in body or clothing or cd,
orous therefrom, or who is sick II
anyway whatsoever. And th'
teachers in all schools shall, with
out delay, send home any pupi
who is obviously sick, even if tht
ailment is unknown, and sale
teachers shall inform the parents
or guardian of said pupil and ais,
the local health officer as speed
lily as possible, and said Officer

In spite OF protests of all three
railroads of the city, the city
council Monday night confirmed
the resolution for paving west
Laporte street, from the present
west limits OF the pavement to
the Nandalia tracks, and ordered
advertisements placed, calling for
bids for contractors. Atty S.
\. Stevens spoke before the coun-
Gil representing the general con-
suls of the three railroads,-John
B. Cochran OF the l.. +. & W.,
John c.. Williams of the Vandalia
and Judge collars OF the Penn
sylvania. The proposed pavement
is to cover the few hundred feet
connecting Laportu street with
The Nandalia, and providing an
outlet for passengers taken on,
and let off the Vandalia, at the
Pennsylvania crossing. Atty.
Stevens stated that he could see
no good that the pavement would
do: that it almost entirely lay
within the yards of the railroads,
md would have to be built al
most entirely by them, with the
,ity. He further stated that plans
and specifications had been made
Tor a Union Station between the
Pennsy. and Vandalia roads, but
under existing conditions, could
not be carried out at the present.
That these plans could not be
changed to meet the requirements
II where pavement would at this
time be laid by the city.
Contract for Boilers.
After considering the letting oil
contract for two steam boilers fol-
the water works plant, at three
meetings, the council finally lei
| the contract to the National Sup
ply Co., of Fl. Wayne Monday
night for the sum of $1544 which
was $271 less than the next low
est bid. The two boilers are to
| be of 100 horse power each, ant
are to be equipped with smoke
stack etc. They will be installed
in the near future by the CON
tractor.

this you need to fully digest 1t.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach II
1t Is weak.
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat suf1c-

But this food must be digested,
and 1t must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do 1t,
you must take something that will

The proper way to do Is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol d.
gest the food.

 A Jacksonville (Fla.) dispatch to the New York Press says: "A war of extermination against the common house fly is being planned in this State. Edward Hatch, Jr., of New York, came on recently to confer with State Health Commissioner Porter in regard to the start of the fly war, and Dr. Porter has issued instructions for dealing with the pests. The way in which medical men have come to look in recent years on the house fly is shown by the name fastened upon it by pr. L. O. Howard, United States entomologist. It is typhoid fly
 Posters depicting in vivid illustra- tions the filthy habits of the house fly and its proclivities for gathering and disseminating disease germs are being scattered broadcast throughout this State. The unusually warm weather this spring has started the fly at his work earlier than usual, and the ac- tivity by the health official is timely. Atlanta will take up the warfare. Clark Howell of the Atlanta ConStitu- ton asserts Atlanta will be made the cleanest and most healthful city in the South. Savannah also has entered the fight. The feeling there is so strong against the fly and it's habits that the name of the Sandfy Park district will be changed.
 "A vigorous campaign against the fly has been instituted in Louisiana un- der the leadership of Mrs. Bernard Titche of New Orleans. A code has been established in household affairs. and the housekeeper wlIo is known to permit a fly to become a member of the family is linked with the woman who harbors other notorious insects which all good housekeepers abhor Southern cities may also adopt the plan of pr. Woodward, health officer of Washington, D. C., who will prose cute stable keepers who fail to reg ,ster at his office. The object of the registration is to insure the supervi- sion of the stables by sanitary inspect CTS, who will enforce measures to pre- vent the breeding of flies.
 "In fact, all the Southern States are fighting the pest now known to be and the line of battle will advance northward as the temperature rises. The mode of warfare will be to destroy their breeding races"
