Sports and Races 4 success.

|0POTlS ana Races q success.
The celebration IN Scotland last
Saturday brought out the largest
crowd that we have had the pleas
ure Of entertaining for many years
and many claim it was the largest
ever assembled in Scotland. The
weather was ideal, and everyone
seemed to be in humor for q holi- /
day. The trains brought hundreds
from all directions. about 400
autoes and as many vehicles of
other kinds thronged the streets.
The Memo band was on hand early
to furnish music, and they did ex-
cellent service through the entire
day.
The program started at ten
O'Clock when the parade, which ex-
tended over three blocks marched
through Main Street and back to
Currie Street, south to Washington
and east to Central Park where
The crowd assembled for the morn
ing exercises. These consisted of
music by the band; music by a
q%uartette consisting Of Miss Rose
Wittmayer, Mrs. G. Marchant,
DR.. Koobs and VIM. Kaye, and
Miss Johanna Wittmayer, accom-
PIANIST address of welcome by P.
A. Bliss reading Of the Declaration
of independence by Miss Irene
Mason; and addresses by DR..
Leighton and Judge Jas. u.
Meighen. The committee was
disappointed In their efforts to se-
cure an outside speaker so the va.
cancy was filled by DR.. Leighton
and Judge Meighen, and though
they had scant time for preparation
the general verdict was that the
audience lost nothing by the fail
ure to get a speaker from away.
The following sports we're pulled
off in the forenoon:-

Painters Union.
The exercises after dinner were
pulled off on the fair grounds and
consisted of a spirited ball game
by the Scotland and Memo tea ms.
The game a really a better one
than the score would indicate, but
a few errors increased the score,
which stood at the close 9 to 6 in
favor of Scotland.

Tors have learned that the great white
plague, which twenty years ago was
almost always fatal, can very often
be checked, and its victims restored
to health, so that they are able to lead
active, normal lives. There is al

care Of each patient at Mount Vernon,

souri, Is willing to contribute $25 a
month toward the support OF each
patient who is admitted to the ana
forum II the county In which he lives
is willing to put up the other SIS.
Only a very few counties In Missouri
have refused to do this. So after
being examined by the states doctor
in your locality 1t Is simply a matter
OF going before the county court Of
your county and proving to its salts
faction that you deserve to be admit
ted to the sa~natorium.
The patient arriving at Mount Yer
non is usually put to bed for a time.
| His temperature is taken every day,
and he is weighed once a week, and
as soon as he begins to show marked
improvement, he is allowed more free
dom to exercise.
The site Of the sanatorium Is a
beautiful wooded hilltop, where the
sun comes dancing through the leaves,
and bird notes OF one sort or another
may be heard most OF the year. Plenty
of summer resorts are not so attrac-
tive in location nor do they serve such
good food as the Mount Vernon sana'
torium.
Much OF the food is raised on the
sanatorium farm. tuberculosis pa
tents require a great many eggs and
a great deal OF milk to help them 70
yain their strength, and the sana'
torlum has its own herd Of registered
Holstein COWS and hundreds OF White
Leghorn chickens. There is a big
garden, so that fresh vegetables may
be easily obtained, and along in the
spring there's a strawberry patch big
enough to supply plenty Of berries fol
everybody on the place.

DR.. B. Hughes is the states chief
ltfe-saver at Mount Vernon. He is
the superintendent Of the sanatorium
and has charge Of its management.
The medical supervision OF the hos
pital is under the direction OF Or. c..
c. English.
But the most important thing to
remember about the Missouri State
S~anatorium at Mount Vernon is that
it is saving lives every day in the year,
People suffering from tuberculosis
better their chances OF recovery very
greatly by getting treatment early,
before the disease has gathered much
Roadway. And that's exactly what the
Mount Vernon sanatoriun helps them
to do. And It gives the poor man as
much OF a chance to recover his health
as Is accorded the man with money.

is only a beginning of what
hope will soon be a much greater
improvement. What we really
aim to do is to aid in saving the
lives of at least two men in every
1000, of the three and one-half
men per 1000 now killed in our
mining operations. In an indus
trial army of over a million men
working underground, that will
mean a yearly saving Of more
than 1000 lives; and in the COM

third million men, l hope we can
aid in preventing 10000 to 49,
900 accidents each year.
at must not be forgotten that
mining is and always will be a
hazardous industry and that
each year it will demand as its
tribute to modern civilization a
certain death roll. We cannot
avoid the inevitable, but we car
avoid the unnecessary and that
would mean each year the lives
of at least two thousand miners
spared to the Nations wage
earners and to their wives anc

AN ouT.oF.DooR scHooLHoUsE.

Grown men and women aren't the
only people who suffer from consump
ton. In the Missouri State Sanator-
ium at Mount Vernon, where people
in the early stages Of consumption go
to get well, there are thirty boys and
girls now. When the first children
came to Mount Vernon for treatment
several years ago, the doctors and
nurses in charge Of the sanatorium
realized that It wasn't enough to heal
these little folks bodies-that they
must also be doing something for
their minds while they we're getting
well.
And 80 Mrs. C. c. English, who used
to be a school teacher and is now the
wife Of one Of the sanatorium doctors,
opened a school for the children in a
room in one OF the sanatorium build
ings. Now the children have a build
ing all to themselves, and it's q

Horrors of Peaceful Industry.

oAAN AANAAANo 4OA ACAC1 AppG~N
day by the United States Bureau
If Mines. This list gives 1851
men killed in the year. The
number of men injured was not
tabulated, but it is estimated
that it reached 100, 200.
Altogether in the coal mines,
metal mines and quarries 1,O47,-
010 men were employed, and
the death rate for each 1000
men engaged was 3.49, or nearly
three and one-half men.
DR.. Joseph A. Holmes, Director
of the Bureau of Mines, comes
forward with the statement that,
taking the hazards of the indus
try into consideration, this list
Of death and injury is excessive
and unnecessary, and a discredit
to the industry and the country.
Commenting on the deaths in
the mines, DR.. Holmes said: 1--WE
stand aghast at the slaughter in
Europe as reports reach us con-
corning the terrible war that is
raging, and we pride ourselves
on our freedom from war
through the adaptation of
higher ideals and standards. Yet
to me this report on the death
in one year of 1861 men engaged
in a peaceful industry is quite as
discreditable. And when we
consider that this record is be-
ing repeated year after year,
the very thought of it becomes
appalling. In the last three
years, as far back as the records
of the bureau covering certain
branches of the industry go, the
mines and quarries of the United
States have swallowed up 10,487
human lives and have incapaci-
tated temporarily probably 6
quarter of a million men. AnC

NEW USE FOR BLorriNG PAPER.

LIVERY housewife should have
- small rack above her kitchen table
for pieces of blotting paper and blot
ters which are frequently distributed
as advertisements.
If grease is spilled on the kitchen rug
or on the carpet anywhere about the
house cover 1t with a piece Of plotting
paper and place warm iron over the
spot. The paper will absorb the grease.
Wax and wax drops from a candle can
be removed in the same way. II the
spot Is very persistent sprinkle With
French chalk before placing the blot
ting paper over 1t.
Blotting paper should be placed under
mildew stains when they are being re-
moved. It is better always in removing
to apply the blotting paper to the side
on which the stain was made.
Care must be taken not to have the
iron SO hot that 1t will remove color
from the carpet or silk when O grease
spot Is being cleaned
When grease is spilled on book
warm carefully the parts which have
been stained and take up as much as
possible with fine blotting paper. APP
ply hot spirits Of turpentine to the spot

This will take out the grease without
harmine the paper. 1t may be nsces-
sary to repeat the experiment.

eradicated by covering with plotting
