SMALLPOX AGAIN
APPEARS IN STATE
Health Authorities Expect Serious
Epidemic | nlsSS People
Are Vaccinated.

Smallpox has again appeared in
the State and in several counties
has already reached serious proper
tions. While the disease is mild in
form, it is none the less menaclng
and may lead to an epidemic of the
worst type. Such, in substance, is
a warning issued the other day by
the State Board of health.
According to officials of the
Board, smallpox is now present in
several southside counties. In one
place, recently visited by an expert
of the department, fifteen persons
were found in one house suffering
from the disease. In some instanc-
es the county authorities are ac-
lively combating the spread of the
disease and are enforcing strict
quarantine. In other counties but
little is being done.
The State Department of Health
is taking steps to enforce the law
in all counties where it is not at
present effective. Every effort will
be made to limit the disease to the
counties at present infected.
"The cause of the trouble is evil
dent" said a Health official, "and
the department has frequently
pointed out the reason for our ma
ny epidemics of this useless disease.
Our people have neglected to vac
cinate and are inviting an outbreak
of the most virulent smallpox. AS
long as this state of affairs contin-
ues, we may expect the worht.
vaccination is the only abso-
lutte and sure way of preventing the
disease. Just as soon as the peo-
pie will avail themselves of this
protection, smallpox will disappear
from the State"

A State College For Women.

Senator Aubrey L. Strobe has
introduced in the Senate q bill
Senate bill No 92) to establish the
Virginia State College for Women
at Charlottesville, coordinate with
the University, but not co-educa-
tional.
If the women of Virginia will
unite in demanding that their SEN
ators and delegates support this
;; bill, they will undoubtedly secure
its passage. The reasons for the
foundation of such a college are
that, though Virginia now supports
university and three colleges for
men, it does not offer to its women
the opportunity of obtaining an
education of college grade at any
state school. The cost of attend
ance at the UNCONVENTIONAL and
other colleges in Virginia now open
to women is prohibitive to the fam
lily of average means with daugh-
tiers to educate.
A state college for women should
reduce the cost of obtaining such
an education by at least one-half
the amount now necessary to be
expended for any girl in the state
who may wish to obtain a college
education.
Fathers and mothers of Virginia,
do YOU desire that your daughters
have equal educational advantages
as your sons? If so, use your per-
sonal influence to induce your SEN
ators and delegates to vote for Sen
ate bill No. 90.
The prompt and active co-opera'
ton of the men and women of Vir'
ginia is solicited in advancing this
movement, which will prove {
blessing to the State for genera
tions to come by enabling the wo
men to reach q higher standard O
culture.
A postal card to your represent
ative at Richmond will convey t'
them your request.
