Regulations prohibiting the use of the
"ticklers," which were greatly in evil
dence in Pennsylvania avenue Saturday
night, following the ceremonies attend
Ing the unveiling of the Columbus Me-
mortal, may be adopted by the Com
missioners. The "ticklers" are regarded
by officials Of the Health Department
not only as possible source Of danger
In the dissemination Of skin disea ses,
but as a license, in the hands of GER

conduct. The attention of the depart

on the faces of those who came In con-
tact with the "ticklers' Saturday

eruptions may have been caused by the
