(By Emily Ray Gregory, Pm.

Since the Young Turks have come
into power we have had four hygienic
lectures, something never possible be-
fore, and we feel that the public health
work so sorely needed, is now fairly
under way.
In the first place must tell you of
some of the local difficulties to De sur
mounted. Among the old Turks. wo-
men and men never attended a
public gathering. not even church, at
the same time, and it would have ere
ated a great scandal if any idea should
get agout that our students, among
whom there are 20 Turkish girls.
should be present at gathering to
which men, especially Turkish men, are
invited Although there is somewhat
more freedom among the young Turks,
we could run no risks Of that nature
Fortunately, the hall we use does not
belong directly to the college, and,
though situated by our entrance gate,
is entirely separate from our build
ings, 50 that there is no need of any stu
dent being seen by those attending the
lectures.
Interest shown in Lectures.
The lecture on the Cause and Pre-
vention of Typhoid Fever" was given by
Dr.. Kadri Raschid Pasha, an eminent
young physician trained in Paris. The
audience listened intently and appeared
greatly interested. After the lecture
sets Of rules to avoid typhoid fever
were distributed.
The next lecture, to which only women
were invited, wass on THE Hygiene
and Food of Children" At least one
hundred Turkish women and our Turk
ish girls came, and all listened eagerly
to a long and able lecture by the same
DR. Kadri Ra6chid Pasha. Most OF the
women stayed and had tea with US. a
negro attendant and a eunuch were
charact eristic additions. The women
wore their tcharshafs but with raised
wells.
The interest shown in the lectures
was much greater than l had dared
count on. Several thanked US before
they went away. One lady belonging to
a very high family and the mother of
one of our students, spoke of the value
and Importance of such lectures for
our young women
we had a lecture on Contagious
Disea seseof Children" by DR.. Suleiman
Nouman Pasha, specialist who studied
in Germany and France, and also lee
ture by Dr. Aakil Moutkar Bey, on
tuberculosis and It's Prevention" and
we had leaflets on How to Cure and
Prevent Tuberculosis" distributed after
the lecture. Dr. Aakil Mouktar Bey
has been back in COnstantinopIe about
a wear. following extended studies
chiefly in Paris. The lecture by an
other prominent physician, Dr. Assaf
Devrfsh. on The Education of Girls
From the Standpoint of Physiology and
Hygiene was interesting, and the ad-
dress on the Sanitary Care of the
House." by Dr.. Aakil Mouktar Bey

Politics Engross Attention.
Vital political problems which are
before the empire naturally engroes the
attention, but as we foreigners see the
difficulties the young Turks have to
meet on account of the national pre-
judices Of the different races and the
medieval attitude of the deputies from
the interior, we cannot but feel that TO
arouse interest in such a vital problem
as this is for the empire, and one which
is neither political nor religious but in
which all the natiOnalities must work
together for their common good, would
very quickly lessen the political fric-
ton. and advance the common under

One of the most refreshing an

It consists of storage plants, located
in the basement, ten feet long, six feet
wide, and four feet deep, In which is
stored daily a half ton OF ice. The large
exhaust fans draw the fresh air from
the outside into the plant which passes
over the Salt covered ice. The cool air
is then forced out i'm outlet tubes of six
inch pipes, coming UP through the floor
of the theater in six different places,
through iron gratings.
The four air from the theater IS forced
out through a four foot opening in the

Notice to Patrons of the City
Delivery.

By direction of the Post Office
Department, the attention of tho
patrons of this office is invited to
the advantages of providing facili-
ties for the receipt of their mail
by erecting conveniently accessible
boxes or cutting slots in their
doors. Such action would enable
the Postmaster to give a prompter
and better delivery service with the
means at his disposal, since the car
riers can cover much more territory
in less time if not compelled to
wait for an answer to their ring.
Private receptacies for mail are also
a great convenience to the house
holder, obviating the necessity OF
responding to the carriers call at
inconvenient moments and permit
ting the safe delivery of mail in the
absence of members of the house
hold. They also prevent the occa-
sional necessity of a carrier pro-
ceeding on his route without deliv-
ering mail because OF failure to
answer his ring within a reasona-
BILE time, and enables him to make
deliveries to patrons living on OF
near the end of tho route at an
earlier hour.
It has been shown by actual expo
rience that the benefits derived by
patrons of city delivery from the
use of such receptacles far outweigh
the small expense involved. As this
office is interested in furnishing thu
best possible service at the leas
, expense, your compliance with tn
foregoing suggestions will be mucl
appreciated. Respectfully,
POSTMASTER.

LOUISIANA.

The date of frost does not appear
important in Louisiana because the
boil weevils nave taken all late cotton.
What is made is now opening rapidly
and being gathered. What is needed
is weather favorable to the harvest.
The crop is below earlier expectations
but better than last year.
