100, 900 Flies Killed in One Town in
One Day

In the April Woman's Home Com
panion there is an interesting dis
cussion OF the problem, Getting
Rid OF the House Fly" There are a
number of practical suggestions and
number OF reports OF the campai On
already made against the fly. Fol-
lowing is report from an Ohio
town:
Early in July, 1911, the news
paper in our village tackled the fly
problem for this community. At
the outset it was announced that Oh
certain day the citizens would be
asked 10 cooperate with this paper
in 'swatting the fly.' A local cloth
ing concern co-operated to the ex-
tent OF distributing, without any
charge, the wire fly 'swatters,' and
on the day appointed three thousand
OF them had been distributed.
Boys and girls were encouraged
to assist in Kidding the community
of flies by the Offering of prizes on
the part OF this concern, and when
the day had come and gone, more
than one hundred thousand flies had
been slain in Hamilton.
During the days which preceded
the day designated, educational ar
ticles we're carried by the town pa
per. The CO cooperation of the CT "
authorities. and especially the health
officer, was secured for Fly Day
and efforts we've put forth at that
time looking to the permanent clean
ing up of places where flies could
breed. Fly Day in Hamilton was
generally conceded to have been
very successful. There was no eff
fort made, of course, to absolutely
exterminate the fly, because such a
result was realized to be out OF the
question, but this paper had as it's
aim, simply, to give the people an
idea how far they could go in solv-
ing the fly problem il they.all got to-
gether and worked to that one end. d"

DR.. DENNY FOUNDERS
DAY ORATOR AT TULANE
Doctor of Laws Degree Conferred
Upon Him


President George H. Denny OF tn,
University of Alabama delivered
the Founders Day address at Tu-
lane University, New Orleans,
March 18th. President Craiehead.
in the name of the authorities of the
University, conferred on President
Denny the degree OF doctor OF laws.
The New Orleans Daily Picayune
OF the 10th reported the address in
part as follows:
President Denny began his ad-
dress by expressing high spprecia-
ton OF the opportunity to speak to
the young men OF Tulane University
upon whom, in common with the
thousands of Young men in other
American colleges, will rest the
duty of fashioning the future life
and destiny of the nation.
He declared thai the most imprcs-
siye fact in American life in the
last quarter of a century has been
the growth OF the colleges in in
duence, in power and in wealth, re-
marking that this striking tact is
due to the conviction of the Ameri-
can people that the colleges are to
fashion the future. He cited the
fact that, though less than per
cent Of the men of America go
through college, out OF this . per
cent the nation draws four-ffths of
its leaders in all the walks OF life.
He then asked whether the COL
leges are meeting the demands made
upon them, or whether they were
training merely along lines that will
bring larger money value when
taken out into the market of profess
sional and mercantile life. He de-
clared that the colleges are doing
their full duty; that they are giving
TO young men such enlargement of
spirit and such capacity for wide
and catholic view that they are be-
ing fitted to fashion the national life
in all high and helpful ways.
We do need the men who can
perform a definite and specific
task" said President Denny, but
do we not also need far more the
man who can enlarge and dignity
that task, whatever it may be? The
man who is bigger than any task
that he shall ever be called to per-
form? The man Of sober discipline.
of moral efficiency and OF the catho-
lie vision? The college man will
have missed the mark and fed only
on the husks OF college training If it
succeeds merely in driving him into
the arena Of greedy pio6t-taking,
while it fails to affect the philosophy
OF his life. TO energize the moral
purpose that sways his destiny, or
give him a clearer conception of
truth and duty"
