INFECTIOUS SAYS DR.. JONES.
Tuberculosis Cases Require subsequent
EumiRalian. He Thinks

Believing that tuberculosis was rot
infectious and noticing a sign on
house at ST. Paul street and Lafay-
cite avenue bearing the words "Tu-
berculosis not to be removed except
by Health Department, reader Of
tie Baltimore Sun asked that the
public be informed reg irding the at
titude of the Health Department to-
ward the tuberculosis problem.
DR.. c. Hampton Jones, Assistant
Health Commissioner OF Baltimore,
said last night that there had not been
general use Of the signs of the
character described by The Suns cor
respondent. but that the disease was
regarded undoubtedly as infectious.
In the case pointed out DR.. Jones
said the house had been vacated after
tuberculosis patient had been re-
moved and the sign was placed on the
house temporarily 20 that nobody
would enter it until the premises
had been fumigated.
The law makes it necessary to
fumigate housed ia which there have
been cases of infectious diseases, he
said, but il is not always necessary
TO fumigate more than one or two
rooms TO accomplish the required re-
suits. In some quarters it is believed
now that tuberculosis is not so infec-
tious as members of the medical pro-
fession have made il appear. DR..
Jones said, however. that there was
little difference OF opinion on the
subject.

The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-02-03

On the far-away fairy island of
Japan, the most cherished thing in
life are the children; everything is
made to revolve about them and
many queer customs and usages
have grown up in this connection.
The birth of child, whether male
or female,i sattended with great re-
joicing. Relations and friends hasten
to the house with gifts of felicitation
as soon as the birth of child is an
nounced. Eggs, fruit of the season,
cakes and a dried fish and welcome
lengths of crepe, silk, or cotton for
the baby's clothes are presented. On
account of the law of primogeniture
and ancestor-worship, which teaches
that a mans first duty is to raise up
an heir to his ancestors to carry on
the family name, the greatest import
ance is attached to the birth of sons.
Friends present inflated kites made
in the shape of paper-carp to the
newly-arrived boy-baby, so that it
often happens that from a single
house proudly float dozen or more
festival fish. In Japan the carp is
the symbol Of energy, courage and

indomitable resolution. 1t is known
to work its way up stream, and to
perform the wonderful feat of leap
ing up waterfalls, being sometimes
found entangled in the branches of
shrubs and trees growing on the
bank. So the father and mother hope
that the little son will surmount all
difficulties mad rise in the world. 1t
is also the samuEai among fish, for
when placed on the cutting board I'M
der the knife it never moves, but re-
signs itself with quiet dignity to
death, and the boy learns that the
same stocism is required of him!
His whole youth becomes train
ing for bravery. With his companions
he learns the art of jui-jitsu-wrest-
ling of fencing, of fighting. He is
taught that some day Japan may
wage a war for the supremacy of the
entire globe and then trained muscles
will be required of her dauntless
sons!

EAST LYNNE

The most notable offering Of the
hour in local theatricals is announced
for Monday, November 23rd, at the
Fad Theatre, where the Carr Portman
Co, will exhibit that wonderful emo
ton picture" revival of East Lynne"
These pictures were enacted by a
company of dramatic players of note
amid the beautiful natural scenery of
the Severn River valley in Western
England, where Mrs. Wood designated

All that money, intelligence, artistry
and a conscientious regard for atmos-
phere of this great book could con-
tribute has been devoted to making
this photo revival of East Lynne" an
epoch making development in amuse-
ment history.
AS a moving picture 1t marks a new
era, for ii Is the first attempt that has
been made to portray emotion upon
the screen. Hitherto motion pictures
have been devoted to spectacular sub
jects depending upon multiplicity and
rapidity of incident for effectiveness.
East Lynne" is not spectacular; it is
simply sweet, beautiful and pathetic
the greatest love drama ever written.
Hence it is easy to understand It's pop
ularity, for next to the bible, Mrs.
Woods great work has been translat-
ed into more languages than any other
book ever written.
An appropriate musical setting has
been provided for the revival with the
result hat it will in every way approx
innate and eclipse a dramatic perform
ance.
The Carr-Portman Co., at a great
expense have made it possible for the
people of Brookings to view this won
derful masterpiece Of motion photo
graphy.
The prices of admission for East
Lynne" have been placed at 10c and
zoe and everyone should avail them
selves of the opportunity of witnessing

a successful run in all the larger cities
of the East where 1t was played to
crowded houses at Csc, 50c and 75c.
The pictures will start promptly at
1880 p. m. They are in three acts, 1T
scenes and 1000 feet of film.
