HOW IRELAND HAS A FUTURE

Just whisper Home Rule" to An
ma Frances Levins, who knows more
about lreland's heart, Ireland's hui
man side, lreland's romance, than
any one you'll find this side of Drog-
heda, and watch the face of the
brown eyed little woman light up.
Every year Anna Frances, with her
camera, goes to the grand and ST.
lent west coast" where English has
never been spoken, where ancient
Gaelic customs and costumes are still
honored; where Belgian flax is spun
into tlawless Irish linen and where
folk songs are sung from the heart.
Through her photographers Miss Le-
wins spreads interest in everything

,'the light Cf Home Rule is soon.
please God. to shine" Peace is all
Ireland needs, said Miss Levins:
now that political unrest is near its
end, Ireland will show what her sons
can do for their own beloved land.

laria in the blood of the patient are
absorbed by the mosquito in lts
bite, and passing through certain
stages of development in the mos
quito, these germs are transmitted
to new victims by the same mosqul-
to, and the process is repeated in
definitely and with increasing ylgor
from the beginning of the warm sea-
son to its close.
During the winter and when the
temperatures generally fall below
60 degrees Fahrenheit, the Anophe-
les mosquito cannot carry the lnfec-
ton, but the germs of the disease are
perpetuated in a more or less dor
mant condition in the blood OF the
human host, or patient.
There is thus a cycle of develop
ment by which the mosquito infects
man and man infects the mosquito,
and if at any stage this circle OF
growth is broken, the spread OF the
disease is stopped in this particular
direction.
Theoretically there are two ways
of breaking in upon this cycle First,
by the destruction Of the mosquito,
the sole agent of carrying the dis
ease, or its germs, from one human
host to another. While it is pos
sible to prevent the breeding of the
mosquito locally, destroying the
breeding places by filling up or by
draining wet spots or by the use Of

Familiarity Breeds Indifference.
Even the constant presence OF
danger loses its terrors for us when
we can't escape it or when we be-
come convinced that the process re-
quired to rid ourselves of it is more
complicated than the danger itself.
This has wide application in
Florida to a considerable list of dis
eases that are actually preventable,
or, at least, possible of restriction
far beyond their present prevalence.
Malaria is one of these. The disease
is usually considered a necessary ac-
| compartment of new and undevel-
oped countries, and the popular
fancy, even in these modern and en-
frightened times, accepts the fable
that it comes from the mists and the
miasmas arising from wet places.
The only basis for truth in such
imaginings is that such conditions
favor the breeding of the Anopheles
mosquito, by which the germs are
carried from the malarie-infected in
dividual to other individuals who up
to that time are free from the in
fection. Even in such surroundings
the disease would be impossible un-
less it were brought from other To-
calities by persons who were actual
ly suffering from it.
This suggests the idea that it is
possible that any given section or
territory may be freed from this in
fection, and that it is possible has
been proven over large areas in diff
ferent parts of the world. Indeed,
the Southern Medical Association,
through a commission of able ply
sicians, is now working out the de-
tails of a comprehensive campaign
by which the Southern States are to

Editor Thomas, of the Plant City
Courier, viewed the tango as present
ed at a theater in his town, and
gives as the result of his observa-
tions the opinion that the dancers
have to be too busy thinking of the
complicated steps to have room for
evil thoughts. This is hopeful
view of the case, indicating that
what many have censured as a hurt
full amusement is merely harmless
industry.

Says the Tarpon Springs Leader:
Wouldn't it be fine if the moving
picture story writers could arrange a
film which did not include the alien
alton of another mans wife or an
other woman's husband?" The NOV
ing pictures are not the sole or chief
offenders in this respect. 1t is almost
impossible to find a magazine or 9TH
er fiction publication that is not ov-
erflowing with this kind of erotic
rot. Has the taste of the American
public become so debauched that
only this kind of stuff appeals to it?
1t used to be that the barest sus-
picion of what constitutes the fav-
Orite theme of the so-called fiction
ist of today was discussed after the
coroner and undertaken had per-
formed their ottices-provided there
was anybody left to carry on the
discussion. But affairs of this kind
are treated in such a matter-of-fact
way in the modern story that the
impression is conveyed that men are
mostly cuckolds and there is little
faith in women. We know of no in
luence that is more harmful and
dangerous than the presence of many
of the "'popular' magazines in the
homes of the people.

kerosene on the surfaces of stagnant
waters, yet it is evident that the de-
StructiOn of the entire mosquito crop
by any known means is a practical
imposSibility.
The second measure of prevention
is by the protection OF the human be-
ing from the bite OF the mesquite,
whether it be infected or rot. The
Anopheles is dormant or idle during
daylight hours. 1t gets busy IN the
early evening and holds high carni-
val throughout the night. II is
during these hours that Floridians
in particular should be watchful
against this pest.
1t used to be considered that the
bite of the mosquito was nothing
more than annoying. Medical science
has shown that it is dangerous, that
is, the attack of certain of the many
varieties of these insects, not of all,
although it may sometime be discov-
cred that each variety has menace
all its own. And so it is best and
safest to take no chances with any
of them.

uuce Discussion of the fail campaigns
is already in progress among Republi-
cans. Democrats and Progressivcs of the
Bay state. Former Congressman sam
uel w. Mccall is being put forward by
the Republicans as an acceptable candi-

committee say that he will Iuu, but
from other sources comes word that
Mr.. McCaIl's decision will depend
largely on whether Charles s. Bird is
the Bull Moose nominee. 1t is said
that MIR. Mccall feels that Mr.. Bird
made a wonderful showing last fall aud
that if he were to run again this year
he would probably poll big enough
vote to IKE Republican success out
of the question Mr.. Bird is extreme

his friends say, and of course Governor
Walsh will he the Democratic nominee
