BALTIMORE. Nov. 21.-In repre-
senting the report of the fly-fighting
committee of the American Civic AS
sociation. Chairman Edward Hatch
Jr., expressed the hope That there
may be no more fly-killing contests.
Mr. Hatch said:
I'VE cannot insist too much or too
often upon cleanliness as the be

fighting campaign, Swat the fly as a
slogan must give way to 'Starve the

Mr.. Hatch said the committee was
able to report the most successful
years work since the inauguration OF
the popular movement looking to the
determination of the house fly.
While the value of fly-killing cam

report says, greater results might be
obtained by conducting campaigns

GRAFT DOG IS SKIN TO
SAVE W0MAN'S LIFE

| CHICAGO, November 22.-An un
usual skin of a dogs stomach was
used in place of skin grated from a
human being, was performed recently
by DR.. Carl E. Anderson at : the
Rhodes Avenue Hospital.
Several weeks ago Mrs. H. w. John
son, wife of the postmaster of, Me
nomonie, Wis, applied at the hospital
for treatment for a rodent ulcer
which covered a space of five inches
on her left elbow. 1t was decided by
DR.. Anderson that it would be neces.
sary to graft skin on the arm if il was
to be saved.
The dog. Nellie. was taken to the
hospital with Mrs. Johnson. When
Mrs. Johnson was placed on the ope-
rating table and given an anesthetic
Nellie watched the doctor with great
interest. DR.. Anderson then shaved
the hair from the dogs stomach and
placed Nellie on the operating table
beside Mrs. Johnson
The dog was given an anesthetic
and the necessary skin was partially
removed and grated on Mrs. John
sons arm. One end of the skin was
not cut, however, and Nellie will re-
main attached to Mrs. Johnson's arm
for seven days, at the end of which
time the rest of the skin will be cut
and sewed on the arm. The dog is
attached to the arm by plaster cast,
so that complications might not

HOW SAN FRANCISCO
WOULD CHECK BILLB0AROS
Three Ordinances Regulatin
Sizes, Charges and

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-The
billboard problem will be. submitted
! to the supervisors at tomorrow
meeting, according to the public wei
fare committee and Assistant City
Attorney George Lull, who has been
framing the new ordinance.
There are three measures, the bill
| board ordinance proper, prescribing
| regulations as to height, construction
and maintenance, and all conditions
+ except revenue
The second provides for a charge
of half a cent a square foot per an
mum for all billboards wherever main
tanned and for the "sky-signs" trans
parencies and electric framework on
roofs of buildings.
The third is already in force, relat-
ing to Sky signs" 1t will be re-
modelled so the license charge may
properly apply to it.
All the officials were in full accord
as to proposed legislation. The two
new bills will go to the board for
passage to print with the united sup
port of the committee and the City
Attorneys office.
Under the ordinance as finally ap-
proved no board may be maintained
which is more than ten feet high, eX-
cept under a special revocable permit,
granted by the supervisors on writ
ten application, and only after full
investigation of all the conditions
and reasons for such special privi-
lege.
Beneath the lower edge of every
board there must be clear space OF
from eighteen inches to three feet.
All boards must be erected on straight
lines, no freaks" being allowed. All
are to stand parallel to the nearest
street.
Boards within the fire limits must
be of fireproof material. Strict regu-
laticns as to the proper bracing of
the boards are provided. No paper,
cloth or other material is to be al
lowed to hang loose. All posting Of
small signs on curbs, lamp posts,
watering troughs or other available
surfaces is forbidden, except such as
is done on behalf of the city in the
of official notices. Nc
paint, paste, glue, waste paper or
other refuse shall be scattered on the
streets.
No billboards may be erected with
out a. building permit. The name of
the person, firm or company maintain
ing a board shall be prominently dis
played. Such names must appear on
wagons, and metal badges must be
worn by employees of billboard firms
while at work.
Billboards already in existence must
be made to conform to these regula
tons by July, 1918, under penalty of
being condemned as public nuisances. |
Any person violating any of the pro-
visions of the ordinance is to be held |
guilty of a misdemeanOr, and subject |
to a fine not exceeding $500, imprison
ment for not over six months, or !
both.

tor to look after the plumbing work
OF the city. AT present. he said he is
so rushed that ii is practically all he
can do TO look after the building that
is going on in Honolulu. He asked
that his request be granted as soon
as possible after the board meets. He
was also put of.
But the real clash came when City
and County Auditor BiCknell appear
cd before the board-to-be. He object
ed to reducing his staff, saying that
there is plenty of work for all. To
this Superintendent PaCheco replied
that the new board is contemplating
cutting down the road work TO mini
mum because of lack OF cash This
in turn would reduce the amount Of
work handled by the auditor and his
Office, and, he added would relieve MIR
Bicknell of the necessity OF having as
many helpers as at present.
Bicknell could not see it that way
at all. He said that a reduction of
the road work would not help him
any. and pointed out that he has been
accustomed to paying laborers by war
rants which necessitates a large
amount of clerical work. This brought
PacheCo to his feet, with kick
against the present system. and the
assertion that IF the county had been
run properly we should long since
have been able to get away from such
methods" which he proceeded to
characterize as obsolete and expens-
i've.
Bicknell promised the caucus that
he would watch his work and as soon
as possible would cut down his staff
to the minimum, but that at present
his Office is far behind and that he
needed all the help he has to catch up.
