A white Pomeranian escaped from
the arms of its mistress in Surf ave
nue., Coney Island, the other night and
ran in front of an automobile. A
newsboy darted after the dog, caught
It, and then fell in a mud puddle. He
lost dozen or so OF papers but held

GAIN IN SCHOLASTIC {:

Oklahoma City, April 30.-Reports
from the county superintendent show
that the scholastic population of okla
homa for 1914 has made a gain of
1907 over that of 1873 575,1O1 in
1914 and 5570O4 in 1913. This enum-
GRAFTON was taken between January
ID and February l, and is the first
census taken under the provisions of
the new school law.
Two years ago Supt. Wilson discov-
cred that in many school districts the
enumeration was the same as the re-
port of the attendance, which indicat-
ed that the census had been taken
from the teachers report of the at
tendance for the school term. The
law made no provision for taking the
census, merely providing for the re-
port of the number of school children
residing in the district on January

10 previous to be made to the county
superintendent after the annual meet
ing in June. No report of the census
was made to the state superintendent
until the county superintendent made
his annual report which was not re-
ceiyed in some instances until the
month of January following, or a year
after the census had been taken.
Supt. Wilson inaugurated a plan
for taking this census and prepared
blanks for this purpose. AS this form
was not prescribed by law, the re-
suits were not entirely satisfactory.
He therefore recommended that the
legislature prescribe the present form
as the only one to be used, which was
done. The reports are now made
promptly and under oath the returns
Indicate that this method has given
general satisfaction. Upon these re-
ports the state school funds are ap-
portioned, and for this reason Supt.
Wilson desired that the reports be
accurate and that every safeguard be
given the taking and the reporting of
the scholastic census.

attention will be drawn to the eX-
pense, the loss of life, and how in
( Cured, should we engage in war
with Mexico. But, how many have
ever realized that we have a greater
enemy within our midst, preventable
diseases, that is destroying more
lives every three months than it
takes to man our entire army and
navy; that preventable diseases are
responsible annually for more ia
talities than all our wars, and that
in addition to our fatalities 1,500,-
600 people are consequently inca
pacitated, suffering from attacks of
preventable disease; that its annual
economic loss is five times greater
than the annual cost of our army
and navy; that every day preventable
diseases in the United States cost
Uncle Sam 1,SG0 lives, more than
Il regiment, and this is an economic
waste of four million dollars. Uncle
Sam is not neglectful, and takes
vigorous steps to protect his soldiers
and sailors from preyentable disease,
but he is neglectful, in our opin-
ion, to this extent: that but a tri-
file is spent IN the protection of
the unprotected populace. Just
enough to let them know he is aware
of their suffering. Seventy two dol
lars is spent on every enlisted man
IN the protection of his health, and
our government can only spend two
and siX-tenths of a cent in the
protection of the great army of AM
erican people. 1t is our citizenship
that our government must ultimately
depend for the army Of defense and
perpetuation of the nation. Why
should the health of the citizenship
be held so cheap?
Everyone recognizes that the first
duty of Uncle Sam is to provide for
national defense, but are We aware
of the fact that it costs this nation
S2S5, 100000 annually for national
defense? This is three dollars per
citizen for support of the army and
navy to protect US from an enem.
without.
Just a few years ago the United
States engaged in war with Spain,
and history repeated itself, for
wherever men are assembled in
large camps, epidemics of disease
soon prevail. These diseases that
prevail as epidemcs are prevent
able. There were more lives lost in
the Spanish American war from
diseases that were preventable than
were lost, the result of >gunshot
wounds. At that time we had rea-
son to fear yellow fever, typhoid
fever, malaria, diarrhoea and dysen-
terry. Today we know that if proper
precautions are taken, but few will
be attacked. The impossible has
been accomplished, the Panama can
al has been built, and the principal
reason for our success was the ap-
plication of the knowledge science
has given us in practically applied
sanitation, and the prevention of
diseases, SO we have reason to be-
lieve that in case we engage in war
with Mexico the application of our
present knowledge to the. prevention
of disease will save many lives and
much sickness, and render our army |
much more effective.
