LOUISIANA STATE BOARD OF HEAITH. !
Office Of President. !
New Orleans, La, July 10, 1914.
To the Mayor:
Dear Sir:-That we may keep faith
with those who have placed confidence
In our efforts to eliminate plague from
the State, every community should insti-
tute cleanup campaign similar to that
now in progress in New Orleans.
1t is hoped that no new cases may de.
velop in the city and none in any other
section OF the State, but to safeguard the
health Of all, protective measures are es-
sential. Up to date six infected rats have
been found, number sufficient to give
an added sense of responsibility for con-
tinued effort.
In New Orleans, the United States Pub
lie Health Service, the City and State
Boards OF Health, are making united
effort toward deratization of the city and
protection Of all by supervision of out
going freight. 1t is needless to add that
cleaning OF suspected areas is under way.
That 30 many cities and towns COM
piled with our request Of recent date for
. general cleaning is most gratifying. You
are urged, in the event your community
has not done so, to designate two days
for this purpose and to assist the house,
holders in every way possible in the prop
er disposition Of refuse.
You are urged also, following the clean
up campaign, to enforce, rigidly and inn
partially, through the proper authorities,
all sanitary regulations of the State Board
OF Health that conditions may be main-
tanned which insure prevention of disease.
The enclosed suggestions are submitted
as pertinent to efforts which should be
made.
Hoping for the cooperation of yourself
and the community in a renewal of effort
for protection of health,
Yours very truly,
OSCAR BOWLING, Pres't.

Kiel canal, last June, he made his
first preparation for war, according to
a naval authority on this side. The
Kie1 canal joins Kiel, a strong naval
port, with the mouth of the Elbe
river, near which lies Wilhelmshaven,
which is the headquarters of the Ger
nan navy. This canal Was begun in

From the moment it became known in
Germany that Russia was, mobilizing,

CITY CHURCH COUNCIL
Executive Committee Has Already
Declared in Favor of
Measure
ORDINANCE ABOUT PREPARED

Sections of Town at

ORDINANCE ABOUT PREPARED

Strong endorsement of the proposed
curfew law being prepared by the Har-
risburg Civic Club will be given by the
Civic Council of Churches at meet
Ing Tuesday night. The ordinance has
already been heartily approved by the
executive committee of the church
body.
The curfew ordinance is expected to

of the city after 8 o'clock unless they
are accompanied by parent or an
adult person Of good repute.
Signals to Be Runs

utes before o'clock in several parts
OF the city will give the warning that
children must go home. This will be
known as the "curfew signal" The
law Is to be enforced by the city
policemen. When a boy or girl under
16 is found in the streets after 8
o'clock by policeman he is instructed
by the ordinance to take the name
and address of the youngster, the
name of the parents or guaf3ian and
then to take the child home. He then
reports to the chief of police, who will
give the parents a notice that the law
has been violated.
If the child is again found in the
streets after a notice has once been
sent to the parents, the chief of police
is. instructed to proceed against the
parent. A fine of from 81 to s5 can
be Imposed or in default of payment a
