NOME, ALASKA, MAY 1s, 1s14.

The inordinate desire to accumula ts wealth seems to be/the ruling pas- sion of the world today and this it is said is manifested more in America than any other country in the civil iEed world. The dispatches yesterday gave an account of a woman of wealth and refinement who though supplic l with all the worldly goods necessary. to secure to her all the comforts of life and many of it's Iuxuries s,u- rounded by friends. socially regarded as woman of high character who not satisfied with all these rich blessings see,is to defraud the public to accu- mulate more wealth perhaps because some one else with more than she oc- cIpied higher position in society. This money makes the man or woman socially in America. Tis money tha- gives power using :Ae term money in it's common accepted sense not. as technical term. This evil and 1t is an evil. has tainted the whole social structure and few of us, if any, a"c unaffected by this universal habit of honoring the man or woman of wealt T regardless of how that wealth was acquired or the character of it's pos
 sessor. Al stratas of society from tte fn he fnh il Even children are affected and herein is the most baneful results of such an universal worship of the al mighty dollar.
 Untold thousands of young boys and girls have sacrificed themselves tc this inordinate love for mon ay which prevades the very atmosphere they inhale and are won from the schools before they are prepared and equipped to fight the battle of lite So many dollars per week or month ii a temporary job wins more applicants than a less sum or no salary when the labor is laying the foundation for a broader, more resourceful honoraS ( and useful man or woman in society
 There may be something wrong Tn our schools in our system of educa tion but 'tis true that before even necessary foundation for an @duca- tion is lain a larger, very large per cent of our boys and girls leave the schools drawn therefrom by soinc tempting opportunity to make ready money.

Report That the Disease Was Being Pmposay Disseminated by Men W1th syringes Mere Fhbricataon of One IresponsfbIe Person.
NOOT-AND-MOUTH

Washington. Nov. 4sensational reports that the foot-and-nnouth dis ease IS being internationally diase minat< ed in the hope of interferfng with Americas exporting meat to the war ring countries In Europe have now been proved to have no foundation whatsoever. They have been traced in fact to story invented by an ir- responsible individual in Lincoln. Ne braska. This man stated to a State representative that he had overheard a conversation between two men who were equipped with hypodernaic sy- rfnges and who said something to the effect that they would see to 1t that the allies got precious little meat from the United States This alleged con versation was at first said to have taken place between 5:30 and 7:30 in the afternoon. Investigation showed, However. that the mal4 in question had already reported it as early as zoo o'clock that same afternoon. when confronted ztth this inconsis- tency. he adnattt I that he was so drunk at the time that he didn't know whether it was day or night Fur thernore he has already acquired a reputation for similar sensational fab ricat1ons.

have been circulated which it is re- ported are interfering with the5 mar keting of perfectly healthy stock. Ther is no other evidence whatso- ever of any plot to disseeninate foot and-mouth disease, and 1t is hardly likely that any government which would undertake such a scheme would entrust it to men so careless as to dis cuss it when there was any chance of being over heard The rapid spread of the foot and-mouth disease is due entire1ysin in the opinion of authorities in the Department Of Agriculture, to the extreme contagiousnes of the in lection. and in particular to the early infection Of the Chicago Stock Yards, the great distribq ting center of the United States. From these yards the disease was carried by various ship ments into all the states in which it has yet appeared. From this point of view, therefore, it is said. the states can hardly be considered as widely separated, since they all were in close communication with Chicago.

 RED CROSS SEALS
Association Undertakes Big En- terprise to Aid Needy
 Persons

The Bridgeport Visiting Nurses association have taken 5OO, ,000 Red Cross Christmas seals which they will endeavor to sell for the aid of tuber- cular poor Of this city between De rember IT and 23 Mrs. A. L. Rtker busy ali this morning distrib uting slides to practically all of the moving picture houses in town These slides, which will be shown at every perfor- lance, picture the seal, which by the way. is unusually attractive this year with it's smiling Santa Claus end red and green coIoring. and also tell the price of the seal, emphasize what a horrible disease tubereuloeis is and explain that the money goes to aid the unfortunate afflicted ones of Bridgeport.
 ssNever since I have been in the city have | seen such evidences of poverty so early in the season, as this year, . said Miss Anna Cullen, the head of the visiting nurses this morning.
 s.CIothing is badly needed as we visit many who have not a change of clothing. Our tubercular patients need warm clothing if they are to sIeeD with open windows as it is pret- ty hard to tell them to throw wide their windows when they have neith- CT fuel for fire nor sufficient cloth- ing to keep them warm.
 The visiting nurses are at present caring for about 50 men, women and a few children who are suffering from tuberculosis. The worst eases are found in the most denseIy crowded sections of the city and among the foreigners. particularly among the Hungarian and Slayish nationaIities. Most people who are at all enlighten- ed understand now-a-days that tu- beEcuIosis is cJ1rable when the proper means are resorted to.
 It is an effort to make some of the poorer. more ignorant afflicted ones nderstand that care must be taken. They live crowded in few rooms with various well members of their families and refuse to sleep in sepa- rate rooms or use separate dishes, and clothing which is washed separately. The nurse has to carry on what is 5lsuallys a most discouragings uphill light to educate these people to the necessity for cars, if not to save the life of the afflicted one, to prevent concentrating the dread disease. She goes back again and again to them.
 whenever it is possible to induce one of these patients to go away to a se5lit terfu1n this Is done but usually they are unwilling to leave their homes preferri1g to stay with their people and diesto the chance of life which Q few 1nonths sojourn at a san 1toriuna offers them. Often 1t is the mother Of a family to wh hom the thoughts of leaving her children for 50 long tinea overshadows the chance of life and the thought thai by staying with them she must surely soon leave them forever.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-11-24

Sometimes the visiting nurses takes the case to the board of health as is 80 of one present instance. A young woman. the mother of seven months old child is afflicted with the disease and is living in four small rooms, with her husband, her baby, her mother, IS year old sister and a child of three years. The windows have been kept tightly closed as she refuses to let the fresh air in and she had been sleeping in the room with the others when the nurse found her. She refuses to go to a sanitor- iuIn, saying that she is going to stay at home and die there. As no par ttcular care was taken and there was great danger of the others contract ing the disease, the Visiting Nurses have reported the case to the board of health 2 This is but typical of the many in. stances with which the Visiting sNur- ses come into contact and it is to aid such that they are asking the peo- pie of Brfdgeport to attach the small ceaI costing one penny to each gift which they send at Christmas and to purchase the stamps for other pur- poses also, as the thought which lies behind each one of them is a great one.
 The stamps are to be on sale at Reads, Howland's, Meigs' and the Post Office. Different ladies, or members of different societies will preside over the sale, during the two weeks which they are offered. Last year the sum of $1,114 was realized from the sale which lasted Eonlyr ten days.
 It is anticipated that this years sales will be much greater as the good work which the seals represent is better understood each season.
 Fifteen per cent of the amount realized from the stanaps goes to- the State of Connecticut Tubercll1 osis As- sociation, who furnish the stamps and the remainder stays in the city where the stamps are sold. The stamps left over, after Christmas are burn ed in the presence of a notary public. Millions of Red Cross Christmas Seals are already in the hands of To- cal agents throughout the State, and orders and recorders are piling in daily at State Headquarters in the Capitol,
 The largest shipment so far has been 500, 900 seals to New Haven. Bridgeport has taken 500. 900, and lWaterburyl and New Britain follow close behind. Orders from other cities and towns show that largely increased sales are anticipated The sale Of seals will be inaugural ed in many cities by an auction of the first seal, or sheet Of seals; plan which proved most successful last t5E6aT III TNGW OTkx C1Lys one GUY real izing over $4oo for the first sheet Of seals.
 State Director Clearman Of the Estate Tuberculosis Commission, states Ithat while communities generaIly throughout the state are covered by Red Choss Christmas Seal agencies, there are still some towns not so rep lresented, but he9 hopes to have thana all in line before the 1914 campaign is over
