Thatcher and Vessel are Behind the Movement Which is
Expected Will be Well Supported by the Citizens -
Rats, Great Menace to the Health of the Community

DR. T. Henry Davis, health officer,
will assist in the movement, he stated
this morning. THE rats are the car
riers of deadly diseases" he stated.
These rodents were directly respon-
sible for the famous Bubonic plague,
which caused the loss of thousands of

ISOLATION"
Indiana Has Anti-Rat Law.
At the 1913 session of the state leg
islature, Representative RAFT intro
duced a rat" law, consisting of an
appropriation to aid in the extermina-
ton of rats and to finance investiga-
tons for the best plans to rid the
state of the pests.
Sanitary Inspector George Young
declares that there are only a few
rats in the city and says that Rich
mond is particularly fortunate in this
respect. However, Dairy Inspector
Flock stated that there are a large
number of rodents in Richmond and
that some business blocks in the cen
ter of the city are known to be under
mined with rat runways, extending
for squares in length and containing
! colonies of thousands of rats, which
increase rapidly. Grocers, feed sales
men, confectioners and restaurant
keepers suffer mostly from them, the
total loss from this source being esti-
mated at many thousand dollars an,
nually.

French play dealing with the ravages
of the great red plague. may be pre-
scented in this city some time during
the coming winter under the auspices
Of the Wayne County Medical associa-

recent health convention at Buffalo by
Richard Bennett and received great
deal of favorable commentator from
the physicians attending.
At the monthly meeting of the med
ical association, held yesterday after
noon, a committee consisting of Drs
Bramkamp and King was appointed
to ascertain the terms upon which the
company could be brought to Rich

ton of the play, if satisfactory terms
could be secured.

physicians from this city are planning
to attend.
The feature of the meeting was the
reading of a paper by DR.. L r. Cnarl-

The first organized effort toward
establishing a rat day" for the ex-
termination of rodents in this city will
De attempted soon in city council by
Councilmen Vessel and Thatcher. 1t
Is believed that this movement will
take well with the citizens of Rich
mond. as rats are known to be more
formidable foes to health than flies
and other disease carrying insects.
Il believe that rats are more dan
gerous to the community than any
other pest we have to contend with"
said j. E. Thatcher, councilman-at-
large. physicians have told me that
while rats are not at all times germ
carriers, when they are infected with
disease the rodents are much more
dangerous than any one imagines.
Movement a Good One.
II believe that the citizens should
follow the example of the residents of
other cities and set aside a day on
which everyone should endeavor to rid
their homes and barns of rats and
mice. The plan has been tried and it
has been found that, with a systematic
method of work, the number of rats
and mice can be reduced considerably
in one day.
''If the plan of introducing a rat
day to the citizens of Richmond
works out as 1t should, a committee
from council will write to other cities
which have rat day and learn the
methods used towards the extermina-
ton of rats and mice"
Councilman Harry Vessel, another
advocate of the inauguration of rat
day" declared that he will do all he
Is able to create interest in the pro-
proposed movement
The rats are not only germ car
riers but are thieves as WE'LL" he said
During the past summer | have en-
tirely rid my neighborhood of rats
and my house of mice, thereby saving
much destruction of property and loss
of horse feed Rats killed some of my
poultry during the winter"
Physicians also declare for the
movement against rats and mice and
a member of the Wayne County So
ciety for the Prevention and Cure of
tuberculosis stated that among rats,
there is a form of animal tuberculo-
sis prevalent which, if transfused to
the human system, causes dangerous
results. Horses and other animals
may also be subject to the disease

STANDING OF THE
CONTESTANTS
In ThistIethwaite's Piano Contest.


We have only got a fair start. No
one has a cinch on the grand prizes so
far and indications are that there will
be decided changes from now on. It's
everybody's race so far and every con-
testant that hustles can secure one of
the weekly prizes given during the
contest.
We notice that good many of
your friends who trade with us give
their votes away thoughtlessly. They
don't know you're in the race; if they
did they would hold the votes for you.
Go and see them, ask them to trade
with US and keep the votes for you.
Your neighbors and friends will be
glad to help you if you want them to.
The following is the standing this
week:
No 3S wins the Apiece dinner set

EIGHTH CARNIVAL WEEK COMING
FOOT TROOPS
MAYNOT MARCH
(continued from Page y

Had the carnival committee made
this arrangement before. all the troops
might have been ordered down." said
this morning. ''As il is. the parade
order has been issued, and the organ
izatiors affected have already made
plans for executing it. Then. again.
there is the question of a camp size,
for il is not as simple as it sounds to
find suitable grounds for two regi
ments. The carnival people have not
taken this matter up. with us, but !
doubt very much whether General
Maconb would consider a change III
any event"
According to a statement made this
morning Fred c. Smith. general pas.
senger agent for the Oahu Railroad &
Land Company, the company has made
no arrangements for the transporta.
ton from Leilehua to Honolulu OF the
1900 foot troops.
He further stated that no arrange
ments had been made by the COM
pany as yet for handling. the large
crowds from the outlying districts
which will come into Honolulu to take
in the Floral Parade and Carnival
He did say, however, that the com
pany would make an investigation of
what the people intended to do with
regard to the week of festivity, and
then act accordingly. This means
that 1t will be found out just how
many people will use the railroad in
journeying to Honolulu, and If the
crowds exceed the expectations of the
company, the rolling stock of the con-
Germ will be increased during the
Carnival week. There will be no extra
trains run except in cases where such
an addition to the regular schedule
would be deemed necessary, as it is
thought that the crowds can be hand
led by the addition of a number of
extra cars to each regular train.
