shown in Phoenix Lodge Number Two. Brother Haskins also stated that he had come to Phoenix with the expectation of remaining only through the winter. but was so delighted with the climate and the beauties of the Salt River valley that he would re- main through the summer also, and was thinking seriously of making this city his permanent home and trans ferring his membership to this lodge. There are perhaps as many boosters for the Salt River valley in this order as can be found in any other fraternal order in the United States.
 On next Friday night there will be held a public installation of officers for the ensuing semi i-annual period. and it is hoped that every knight will be present. Also the wives, mothers. sweethearts and sisters of the knights and friends, and others interested in the order are cordially invited to be present at this installa- tion.

Newspaper Space.

Every line in a newspaper costs its
publisher something. If it is to bene-
fit some individual, he may fairly ex-
pect to pay something. You do not go
into grocery and ask the proprietor to
hand you out ten pounds of sugar for
nothing, even though the grocer may
be personal friend and the gift might
not be large one.
If the beneficiary of advertising does
not pay for it, the proprietor has to
settle the bill. Nevertheless, many
people cannot seem to learn that news
paper pays its expenses by renting
space and that it is just as much entltl-
ed to collect rent for every day that
space is occupied as you are for the
house you rent to tenant.
Most newspapers expect to treat re-
ilgious and philanthropic enterprises
literally, yet in spite of this many Of
these enterprises expect the newspaper
to give them space rent free.
Religious organizations, we are sorr,
to say, are the worst offenders in thi
line that we have to deal with. w
believe that we are just as good Christ
ians, and are just as generous as tn
average merchant on the street. w
therefore cannot understand why W

Transmission Of Infant Paralysis by
the Stable-Fly.

Prof. M. J. Rosenau Of Harvard re-
Gently announced that he had apparent
" succeeded in transmitting infant pa
ralysis from monkey to monkey through
the agency of biting stable-fiy. Con-
firmation of Rosenau's work has just
appeared in an article by Anderson and
Frost in the U. s. Public Health Re-
ports. These authors report that they
were able to transmit infant paralysis
to monkeys through the agency of the
flies and to transmit the infection to a
fresh monkey with the emulsion of the
cord of one of the animals infected by
the flies.
One point Of especial interest in the
results reported by Anderson and Frost
is the period elapsing between the first
exposure of flies tot he infected animal
and the development Of the disease in
healthy animals, the shortest period
being seven days, which is shorter than
that found by Rosenau in his expert
ments. These results, in confirmation
of those announced by Rosenau in Wash
ington, would seem to demonstrate con-
clusively that infant paralysis may be
transmitted to monkey through the
agency of the stable-fly. 1t remains,
Of course, for further work to determine
whether this is the usual or the only
method of transmission. This early
confirmation, says The Journal of the
American Medical Association, while
too late to be of great value in attempts
to control the disease in the United
States this year, will undoubtedly re
suit in efforts by health authorities il
localities where infant paralysis ha'
prevailed, to eliminate the stable-f.
and to prevent its access to any persons
suspected of having infant paralysis.
