EMPLOYED OFF,
GERS OF Y. M. C.. A.
IN CONVENTION
Opens Thursday Afternoon in
Augustus New Building
Continues Today

The annual convention of the Employed
Officers Association of the Y. NJ C. A.
in Maine opened Thursday afternoon with
social hour from $50 to 40 o'clock at
the association building. During this
time those present were shown over the
building and were very much impressed,
especially with the conveniences with
which the building is fitted.
Promptly at 40 o'clock a business
meeting was called to order in the library
by the president of the Employed Officers
association, D. F. Evans. Prayer was
offered by F. L. Thornberry. C. F. Hos
mer was elected secretary of the conven-
ton. The business centered chiefly on
possible methods for improving this year
ly association convention. 1t was voted
that one meeting shall pc held each year,
which indicated the preference of one
effective convention to more frequent con-
ventions of less Importance each. In re-
gard to the length of each annual con-
vention and its program committee was
appointed to consider and report at the
banquet in the evening. 1t was voted that
the annual convention be held next year
sometime between Sept. 10 and 10 A vote
of appreciation was extended to the Au-
gusta association for its reception and
entertainment of the present convention.
At o'clock the gathering, numbering
SO in all, gentlemen and wives, seated
themselves at the tables arranged in the
assembly room to enjoy the delightful re-
past which had been prepared With pal
ar nv Si n
meats, mashed potato, salads, lot rolls,
cake. ice cream and coffee, the speakers
of the occasion arose to prove their wits
and eloquence as far-reaching as their
appetites.
The POSTMASTER, Prof. James L. Nc
Conaughy of Bowdoin, first called upon
Secretary Goodman of the local associa-
ton, whose speech was one of welcome
to the guests. In response was the adj
dress of D. S. Evans. president of this
convention. The following address OF
Rev. Fl. e. Dunnack was by many ex-
pressed as the finest thing they had ever
heard His theme was that which a Y.
M. C. A. represents by getting grip on
things and lifting" In his explanation he
very effectively employed the description
of a painting which hangs in Bowdoin
chapel and which portrays a man who
is down being lifted through the grip
which another man has upon him.
jefferson Smith, State secretary of the
l. NJ. C A, pleased mis- audience by gen.
uine Jeff Smith humor. Norman L.
Bassett spoke concerning the general
situation and need of a Y. NJ. C. A. in
Augusta Many other men who have re-
Gently entered this line of work in Maine
made brief speeches and the occasion
came to a close at about $50 in the eve
ming.
Among local people present were Mr..
and Mrs. Norman L. Bassett, Mr.. and

ALEXANDER MILTON CO.
Delights Large Audience Thursday
Evening at the Methodist Church

The Green Street Methodist church
was filled Thursday evening when the
Alexander Milton Co. presented the
first entertainment of the Augusta ly-
ceum course, program varied be-
tween harp and vocal selections, mel
odies and uonologues. The artists,
Helen Reed Alexander and Florence
Wood Milton. were cordially received
at the first. but as each selection was
rendered the applause showed the
growing delight of the audience, and
the last number rendered left the au-
dience only eager for the program to
be extended.
As harplst Mrs. Alexander has an
enviable record, her delicate touch,
poetic phrasing and brilliant execution
bringing only words of praise from
the large audiences that greet her. The
selos she rendered Thursday evening
We're very pleasing and her aceompan-
iments We're excellent.
The songs rendered by Mrs. Milton
and her monologues thrilled the audi
enee. She possesses a pure contralto
voice of an unusually sympathetic
quality, and a magnetic personality.
Especially pleasing in her program
was the group of Indian songs, which
she rendered in the Indian costume.
Her readings We're also we'll received.
The patrons of the Lyceum course
appreciated the high grade of the en-
tertainment and hope that the artists
will make future visits to the city.

Plumbing and Health.

IT Is not surprising perhaps that ola
ideas concerning the causes of disease
survive a long time after these IDEAS
have been generally outgroWn or as
credited All the same II is little DIS
concerning to find that typhoid FEVER
can still be complacently attributed 10
bsd plumbing. When we read that In
sufficient laws regulating plumbing and
sanitation in Virginia, Maryland and the
Distrfct of Columbia are largely respon-
sible for the high typhoid rate ana 'he
prevalence of other diseases In the two
states and the district" and again that
much of the fever and other forms OF
disease with which the health authorl-
ties are constantly wrestling !. caused
bv noxious gases and vapors emanatins
from neglected or defective pipes In the
home. Of the people" we are inclined 10
rub our eyes and ask ourselves II the
education of the community Is really
proceeding at the pace We sometimes
like to believe The assertions quoted
above. however, were reported as made
at the Association Of Plumbers, Gasfitters
and stesmfitters which recently met in
Richmond. Va, and not at convention
of health officers or physicians.
It is hardly necessary to point out that
typhoid fever-or any other fever-is not
caused by bad smells, and that the small
quantity of the gases OF decomposition
found in well-ventilated sewers has
never been proved to exert any injurious
effect whatever on health. A connection
between plumbing and health has been
shown to exist at Just one point. Plumb
ing is of value to public health only 30
far as It removes human -excreta from
the immediate neighborhood of dwellings
and so does away with tho danger OF n.y.
borne typhoid and other infection which
arises from allowing infectious material
to accumulate. Disease germs are not
found in sewer air; indeed, 1t is dimeuit
on physical grounds to see how they
could get there. The "noxious gases ana
vapors," so dear to the plumbers imhgi-
nation, are conspicuous by their absence
in all perfectly constructed sewer sys-
TENS. as every visitor to the great sewers
of Paris and other modern cities well
knows. Defective plumbing says The
Journal of the American Medical Asso-
citation, has about as much relation 10
public health as any other mechanical
defect in house construction.
Teh most serious obstacle to the uni
versa1 establishment In severed towns OF
the water-carriage system Is the high
cost Of the plumbing. In this respect
every unnecessary refinement and elabo-
ration In plumbing outfits and legal re-
quirements is HARM not help, to- pub
lie health. The greatest possible simplici-
| x,,tt an
cheney is what Is needed in really 'sani-
tary" plumbing, not a labyrinth of traps,
vents and beck-vents. II the plumbing
interests really wish to aid the hygienic
welfare of the community they can best
do this. not by insisting on still more
complicated devices and inspections,
but by simplifying and cheapenins the
cost Of installing and maintaining the
