Visiting the Colleges.

DR.. ]. LaBruce Ward, rural
sanitary inspector Of South Caro-
lima, end a member of the Rookie
feller commissicl for the eradication
of the hook-worm disease, lectured
on the disease at Wofford recently
He said, among other things, that
the dullness Of students was not nee
essarily due TO their being mentally
inefficient but was possibly caused
by physical conditions. In other
words they might be suffering from
the hookwor11 disease He left at
the college enough medicine to treat
the entire student body for hook
worm. DR.. rE. N. Snyder, president
of Wofford, in talk to the students
in chapel, ssid that the names OF
those who failed in their examlna-
tions would be sent to DR.. Ward and
they would be treated for hookworm'

Made o. Fine Sum.

On Friday night there was to have
been a lecture-recital given by Prof.
Harold A. Loring, Columbia College,
and same was duly advertised. On
Wesnesday Prof. Loring telegraphed
his inability to be here, on account OF
illness in his family. Miss Loutie
Tatum, with her able assistants got
busy Immediately, and when the
crowd gathered, treated them
to three beautiful songs, sung
by the school in chorus, and various
piano solos and duets, performed by
Miss Hutt's music pupils. After the
exercises refreshments, consisting OF
salads, cakes and chocolates, were
served by the pretty young misses
of the school. A box of candy, and
a cake were soId by chance, and a
voting contest for the most popular
young lady, (Which resulted in tie
between Miss Irene Rumph, teacher.
and Miss Ruth Thomas) all resulted
in, q neat sum being raised, the same
being used to make payment on the
piano bought FOR the school. Mr.. R.
K. Henery ard Mr., J. B. Williams
got the cake and box OF candy re-
spectively. Ali present enjoyed them
selves, and are ready for something
of the kind again soon.

BEWARE OF HIGH HEELS.
They Pile Up Innumerable Woes for
Their Fair Wearers.

Girls who wear high-heeled shoes
are laying up for themselves Ger
tain heritage of misery and broken
health and destroying their chances
for the crowning triumph of woman
hood-home making and bearins
children. This is the declaration o.
DR.. Caroline Hedges, prominent
specialist of Chicago.
She said it was criminal for wait
esses and other working girls tc
wear high-heeled shoes.
Mattresses, working ten hours
day, walk an average of ten miles
bearing heavy burdens of dishes ano
food, and limping about as II they
were strapped to stills when they
cripple themselves with high heels
DR.. Hedges said it was disgrace fol
any country to make its young Wo
men weary. She pleaded for more
time aud easier work for girls, but
urged the girls to discard high heels
and similar follies, which perma'
nently crippled and practically un'
sexed them.

case arises, whether in summer or III
winter, it should be isolated and
treated with great care and prompti-
tude to avoid the infection of others.
"Is infantile paralysis a new dis
ease?"
1T Is not a new disease" DR.. Flex-
ner said, 'but the epidemics of it are
new to this country. The disease has
arisen in this country from time to
time for almost half a century, but
in very rare instances have any COLI
siderable number of cases been
grouped together until the last three
or four years.
"The present epidemic first ap-
peared around Boston and New York
about three years ago, and has grad
ually, continuously and insidiously
extended over North America from
ocean to ocean and from Canada TO
Cuba. Prior to this period the cpl
denies were limited to Norway and
Sweden, where they have been pre-
vailing regularly for more than a
quarter of a century. The present
epidemic in America is part of the
general epidemic, or pandemlc So
called, of the disease affecting a large
part of the civilized world. The dis
ease is prevailing in many European
countries at the present time, as III
the United States and Canada"
Then DR.. FleXner went on to de-
scribe the available means Of com
batting the disease:
"At the present time" he said,
"thcre is no specific remedy or cure
for infantile paralysis. The disease
once established can not, therefore
be controlled by the application OF
any remedy known to medical sci
encc. Luckily, the disease is not Il
highly fatal one, although it is one
Of the saddest Of diseases because
Of the large amount Of Gripping ii
causes. On the other hand, the out
! look has been greatly frightened hS
reason CT the recent knowledge
which has been acquired concerning
the nature OF the cause OF tho disease
and the mode of its transmission.
This knowledge permits the ap'
plication of Intelligent preventive
measures, which, if effectively EN-
ployed, will serve to diminish the
number OF persons affected with it
The most scientific, as we'll as the
most humane, method Of dealing
with any disease, is - prevent rather
than to attempt to cure it. Hence
the effort to control this terrible dis
ease should be in the direction OF
prevention. The various States are
making a determined effort to dea
with the malady through prevention
since they have required notification
and quarantining of the disease"

Increased activity on the part of
the Southern Railway company in the
work of attracting settlers to the
South is indicated by the announce
naent that two additional travelling
immigration agents have been ap-
pointed in the land and industrial
department.. T. Fl. Jones, with head
quarters at st. Louis, will travel the
Central West, and J. B. Finster VIII
have headquarters at Washington. d.
c. These new appointees are we'll
equipped with experience and train
ing in immigration work and their
duties will be to solicit desirable
classes to locate in the South. With
these additional agents in the field,
the work of the Southern Railway for
the upbuilding and development OF

tective than in the past.

Have the HookWOIm?

1t is becoming customary to treat
college students who fail in their eX-
aminations for the hookworm, as 1t
is believed that the disease causes d
good many failures. The same plan
should be- adopted in reference tc
the city schools. We believe many
children are afflicted with this mys'
terious disease without knowing they
have it, and it may account for the
failure for some children to keeT
up with their classes. Why not have
an expert on the disease visit oul
schools ard give his opinion?

what are the main sources of in
fection?"
"Infantile paralysis is chiefly a
disease of children, but it sometimes
attacks adults" Dr.. FleXner said.
Since the germ causing it is carried
by those who have been i'll, as well as
| by persons who have been in immed-
late contact with the patients, it is
mot surprising TO find that the begin
nings of many epidc,nics nave been
traced to schools where many chill
dren are assembled: but any consid-
cradle gathering Of persons, which
includes many children who are
brought together during the preva-
lence OF the disease, may be the
means of spreading it widely.

The period Of greatest prevalence
of the disease, Dr.. FleXncr explained
is in the summer. AS an epidemic

most all cases arise in the summer
months, and by far the greatest
number in July, August and Septem-

last Monday. He will have 40 acres
sown to grain and says the prospects
for good crops Oh the somth bench
are most encouraging. While he
agrees with Professor Shaw on all
questions relative to dry land farm
ing, lie believes the Professor forgets
the requirements of the law for those
who have filed OIL 500 acres, when he
advises homesteaders not to break
up too much prairie sod-for those
locating on the half section being re-
quired to have 40 acres broken up
the first year and so acres under cul-
tivation at the end of the second
year.

uriant growth of grass, bordered
with shade and ornamental trees,
forms handsome setting for his resi-
dence. In Malta where the majority
of the front yards have not been
given amy attention, it is unusually
beautiful and attractive. During
the winter months the lawn was
covered with old straw to protect the
grass roots but as soon as the warm
days came, this was removed and the
grass showed up healthy and green,
embellishing the grounds with it's
early yerdure. There is nothing that
enhances the attrac tiveness of Il
home more than we'll kept lawn
and we shall be pleased to find that
