ought to be heartily ashamed OF
themselves Il there is any truth in a
news dispatch from Wheeling that
has gained wide circulation.
while their husbands were sit

the dispatch says, a number of the
wives and daughters Of the far

Big Wheeling Greek road them

and Mrs. Folmer, Mrs. Gene Britt
and Misses Britt and Wynters sup
piled the women with rakes, snoveis
and other implements. They
worked from early morning and at
night had all the holes filled with
gravel and broken stone. Then they
had a big-supper.
No doubt the wives and daughters
mentioned were completely dis
gusted with the idiotic combination
OF farm life and bad roads that their
husbands and fathers and neighbors
offered them, when they decided to
take matters into their own hands
If not, then why should they have

Sanitary Reforni ,

In an unusually broad and far.
sighted editorial in recent issue,
the Toledo (ohio) Blade in a few
lines practically sounds the keynote
of the public health campaign.
Commenting ons a circular, recently
issued by, one of the large iife-in-
surance companies, the Blade says:
The conservation of public life is
becoming a5great social question,
one in which society is taking over
responsibilities and = functions left
heretofore in the hands of the indi-
ylduai." -
The Journal Of the American Med
ical Association says that This sums
up the entire situation and also in
dicates the cause for the marked
change taking place in the attitude
of the public toward the prevention
of disease. Previous to our pres
ent knowledge regarding the trans
mission of contagious diseases, sick
ness was largely a personal matter
between the patient, the family and
the family physician. In cases In
which the fact, but not the manner
of 4contagion was known, local
health officials could quarantine the
patient and prevent others from
coming into contact with him. I'm
til thirty-fiye years ago, however, no
one knew exactly what caused the
various contagious diseases or how
this cause was. transmitted from
one individual to another. Today
we know that yellow fever and ma
larlaI are transmitted by the mosqui-
to, bubonic plague by the rat and
the flea, hookworm disease through
injected soil, typhoid fever through
contaminated water or milk, or flies
or personal contact; tuberculosis,
diphtherfa and other contagious dis
eases through the discharge of pa
tients.
Disease is no longer a matter
which concerns the individual
alone. All the conditions of life
and of livipgs enter into the causa.
ton or suppression of disease.
Many of these factors are beyond
the control of the individual, They
can be controlled only by society,
acting in an orderly and effective
manner, that is, by: the state. AS a
result, most OF the effective" meas
ures for public health of recent
years have been more largely social
and economic than medical. School
inspection, tenement-house inspec-
ton and reform, improved condi-
tions in workshops, stores and fac
tories; efforts to secure pure food,
pure milk and pure water for the
community; free parks and play
grounds, municipal baths-all these,
although not medical in the old
sense of the word, are primarily for
the health of the individual and of
the community. Yet they are all OF
them possible only through the col
lective efforts of the state or of the
municipality.
The Blade is right in character
izing the public health movement as
a great social movement. and in pre-
dieting "a broad and enormously en-
dowed campaign for the preservation
of public health leading to free aid
for all and the building of insur-
mountable barriers against dis
ease"

I'd to be the rawest deal that was

try. No one Who was posted on the
fighting game gave Flynn much Of \
chance To beat johnson. but they all
thought that Flynn would put up the
and be beaten. not disgraced. How
ever. he soon saw that he had no
chance with the giant negro and
straightway began using foul tac-
ties II was the dirtiest. foulest fight
ever fought for the championship.
and the negro has shown that he Is
the whitest man OF the Two.
The La Junia sports who were At
the ringside are disEusted with the
fight and with Flynn. They say that
the fight was 4 joke and that John
son could have put Flynn out In any
round. and never had 4 ghost OF
chance to win. Even the Pueblo
sports yelled At johnson to put
Flynn out after he started his foul
tactics. Flynn fouled johnson BY
butting with his head. on one occa.
sion jumping a foot into the air to
ram the black man In his face with
his head. He hit Johnson low mum.
ber OF times and used ever. manner
Of disgraceful. unfair fighting.
The best part Of the whole busi-
ness 10 that the promoters OF the al
legged fight lost money on It and that
Flynn did not get cent out OF II.
Everything was done TO make the
public think that Flynn had a good
chance TO beat the champion, but
Curley and every one connected with
the affair knew all the time that II
was set-up for johnson. The only
possible exception to this is Flynn

FL TOVAR MAN WILL
 WELCOME AUTOISTS
(From Wednesdays Dsily)

(. A. Brant. manager of Fl Tovar. Grand Canyon. spent few hours in Prescott Monday renewing old friendships He expressed himself as pleased over the prospect of en- tertaining SO many Arizonans in connection with the Ford auto trip from Prescott and the Studebakcr party from Phoenix and the south land. next month.
 Every possible opportunity of sec ing the Canyon in its most fascin- ating phases will be afforded the visitors by the management. Sup plies of gasoline and lubricants will be at hand. subject to the requisi- ton of the parties; and. although it is regretted by the Harvey people that crowded hostelry will prevent their entertaining their Arizona ncighbors in the way they would have liked, all will receive the best attention and care possible on both occasions.
 Unfortunately. some nisundcr- standing as to the attitude of the management toward automobile vis- tors has existed. Far from their being lukc-warm toward such pat ronage. constant and diligent efforts have been put forth by them to ob- tain, from the Department of the Interior. permission for the use of all roads by autos free as they are now for all horse drawn vehicles.
 So far. the federal authorities have declined. because it has been GUS tomary, at all national parks and monuments. to exclude motor ve. hiclcs. for fear of accident or possi. ble loss of life due to the frighten- ing of horses.
 Secretary Fisher visited Ei Tovar this year and intimated that, later on. the strict rule against motor driven vehicles may be relaxed or withdrawn.
 As soon as this order is issued. it Is the intention of the Harvey com pany to resort entirely to the use of automobiles for driving guests along the roads overlooking the Grand Canyon.

BRIDE CHOSE 10 STAY WITH
 MOTHER
Groom Deserted in Open Court After Lengthy
 Legal Battle
(From Saturdays Daily)

1Iabeas corpus proceedings insu- iuted last week for the release of Mrs. Ruth Mackay from the custody of her husband which was an inter csiing domestic affair instituted by the mother of the young bride, Mrs. Hattie Hendricks. and in which also Willie Collins and Stella Blair hgur- ed in an abduction stunt pulled of in taking the bride away from the groom shortly after their marriage, was settled in the superior court yesterday
 The bride was informed that she had the option of preierring the hus- band or the mother, and that those who participated m the affair of keeping man and wife apart. had no legal right SO to do.
 After the judicial instructions were issued the young bride hesi- tated for a moment which way to go. and after deliberatiou wcnded her way to the side of her mother with that maternal welcome that made the scene joyous one to those two. but which brought ex- prcssions of grief to the benedict Rivers Mackay.
 The parties to this matrimonial mixup are all coiored. and the trouble followed after the principal: were hastily married. to which tho mother natly objected. aud came from Phoenix to thwart the union hut was too late in appearing or the scene, hence the legal actior taken to keep them apart, which sh, finally accomplished
