FINDS NE WAY
To CAUSE X-RAY

CHICAGO. Dec ga new method
Of producing and controlling x-rays
which has been discovered by William
David Coolidge, electrical inventor. is
expected to revolutionize the use Of
the rays.
MIR. Coolidge has made use of the
principle that certain metals, such as
platinum. give OF particles when heat
ed in vacuum. With the aid of q
powerful arc these particles are driven
against tungsten light placed within
the vacuum tube. Striking the plate
an X-ray Is produced so powerful as
to make possible the giving of com
plete treatment in Is seconds The
usual time has been about Is minutes
Another advantage of the new meth
cd is that the rays may be controlled
so that the veins and nerves of the
body may be shown, or the densest
part of the body may be shown 100
feet from the tube.

Public Health Department
BY DIR. J. C. MAHR STATE COMMISSIONER OF HEALTH

Interest in medical inspection Of
schools is increasing in Oklahoma.
The State Department OF Health is
receiving much encouragement since
its advocacy of a policy Of partial in
spection by teachers in lieu of the reg
ulation system that should be employ
ed where facilities are obtainable.
The idea advanced in this Depart

approval Of the State Department OF
Education and the following open let

Hon r. H. Wilson, State superintend-
ent Of Schools:
ITO the Public have Just read all

DR.. J. c. Mahr, and ! take this. the

that the agitation being waged by the

'My office is in the same building
and is on the same floor as that of
DIR. Mahr, and l have frequent oppor-
tunities to examine his maps of the
State indicating the location Of con-
tagious diseases. 1t is peculiar that
a large percent of the diseases, such
as scarlet fever, small pox, diptheria,
measles, chicken pox, ETC., are more
general throughout the State in the
fall than during any other season of
the year and are largely confined TO
children Of school age. These facts,
with other information, lead me to en-
Sorse the plan of the State Health
Department, that all public schools
should be thoroughly fumigated be-
fore the opening of school in the fall.
1t makes no difference how open the
school room may have been during the
summer. The fact that the building
has not been used is sufficient reason
that a large number of poisonous
germs collect in such building, and
