had a long argument on the subject,
the feature of it being that there was
nothing but kindness in the sculptor's s
tone, he firmly believing that he was
dealing with an idiot.
Another whiskeresque incident in
which John figured occurred when a
pompous four-fusher with borrowed
silk hat two sizes ahead of the cir
cumference of his head stalked along
a street full of people. John marked
those flowing whiskers with glee and
shadowed his man. At an opportune
moment he jammed the large hat down
over surprised pair of eyes, and then
before the owner could force the lid
upward John gave the whiskers a jerk
that set his own heart leaping with a
barbaric joy and made the owner
thereof cry out with rage.
Those are two out OF a hundred in
cidents Be careful, whisker wearers.

by a young man with cast of coun-
tenance leaning toward the Hibernian,
and whose eyes have the gleam of a
maniac in them, tuck your Whiskers in
your vest and stand on guard. If you
do not, it is likely to be John, and be-
fore all the world he will pull those
whiskers with a double jerk, and in a
voice of honey, say:

When you hand the conductor a car
ticket and an insulting glare at the
same time tread gently on his feelings,
for he may be human, just as you are.
The chances are ten to one that he has

no one ever would suspect conductor
of being a pastry cook or mixer of

Yet there is in this town conductor
who is punching transfers by day and
carrying on a line of activity at night
which the Federation of Women's
Clubs may have to protest against.
This pesnicious activity was exposed
at Cultus Club meeting a few days
ago, and any one who is anxious to
learn more about him can look up that
organization and find the woman who
told her sister members about it.
There are woman chauffeurs," said
this woman, there are woman sales
men-er-ah, I mean there are woman
salespersns, woman aviators, woman
politicians (chorus of You bet") and

lures, women in places OF high author
ity and responsibility and women are
taking rank with men in the arts and
sciences.
But, my sisters, l have found that
while we are making advances in one
direction we have been derelict in an
other, and while We have been neg
lecting the kitchen Il mere man has
entered that field and has cut a wide
swath in an activity which should be
left alone to women.
Il rode on a street car yesterday.
After l had paid my ticket the con-
ductor handed me his card: Pardon my

outbuilding. When a second inspcc-
ton was made a spot was painted into
the center of the seal wherever the
necessary work. had been completed:
otherwise, 1t was left as before. This
seal was therefore an advertisement
to all the neighbors that insanitary
conditions existed; and 1t WAS seldom
allowed to remain long. The inspectors
were often requested to call around
again and see IL their suggestions had
not been complied with.
The result of this campaign was that
the city of Martinsburg was made as
clean as a Dutch kitchen. In order to
impress the importance of sanitation
upon the people a committee of prom
inent citizens was appointed and taken
by the inspectors upon tour of the
city's alleys before the work was done
and again after 1t had been completed.
For use In educational work elsewhere
a complete set of moving pictures of
the cleaning-up of Martinsburg was
made.
Martinsburg now has a board of
health, consisting of head o.ucer a
employed by the Women's Community
Club. In 1913, between April and Mo-
vember, there were 249 cases OF ty-
phoid in Martinsburg. and IL deaths.
III 1919, IOiiOWlnE the sanitary work,
there were only 35 cases and but one
death.
In Dorchester county, Maryland, II
per cent of the homes visited the first
year by the inspectors were improved
by the owners so as to make them
more sanitary almost Immediately, and
subsequently 13 per cent more have
made improvements. This is consider
ed an exceptional record. A propa-
ganda is considered successful If one
family in twenty-five responds, and the
large response in Dorchester county is
proof that public sentiment has been
created which will not be satisfied un-
til the entire county has been made
sanitary. This, the health officers say,
may require a generation, but Will
surely come about. 1t is planned to
extend this county work into other
states during the next few years.
Rural sanitary work upon similar
lines is now being carried on in the
south by the Rockefeller sanitary com
mission for the elimination Of the
hookworm disease. This commission is
just completing a campaign which had
for its object to cure all persons af-
fiicted with the hookworm. 1t is now
setting out to prevent the recurrence
of the disease by an educational cam
pafgn for better sanitation, which is
intended to be carried into every coun-
ty in the south. In method 1t differs
only slightly from the work being done
by the public health service The mag
nitude of the undertaking and the
benefit to the rural south, can scarce
ly be exaggerated.

Washington standing forth as the one
city in the country least affected by
hard times and the out-of-work prob

would like to see aggravated, is fea-
tured in an article prepared exclusively

What the larger cities are doing to
relieve unemployment is pointed out
in this article as an example for other
communities. The Survey, which fur
nishes this information, is an organiza-
tion whose purpose is to find out and
interpret the facts of living and work
ing conditions and to promote intelli-
gent effort for social advance.
How the various big cities are con-
tinuing public improvements and even
carrying forward many such projects
earlier than had been intended, just
for the sake of giving work to needy
men, is thus described:

RURAL SANITATION.
II.-CIeaning Up the
Country.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

Cooperation between the United
States public health service and the
state health organizations is maintained
by means of an annual conference at
Washington, where the surgeon gen.
eral meets the state officers. At the
1912 conference it was suggested that
intensive work in rural sanitation,
such as that done in Yakima county,
Washington, be carried on in a few
typical rural communities in as many
states as possible, the federal and state
authorities cooperating as they had
in the case of Yakima DR.. L. L. Lums-
den pointed out that the work done
in these counties would have an edu-
cational effect throughout the states
where they were located, and would
also enable the health officers to per-
feet methods of sanitation.
This work was begun last spring, in
four counties, the sum of $4,000 from
the annual appropriation of the public
health service having been set aside
chosen for the work were Berkeley,
West Virginia; Lawrence, Indiana;
Union, Mississippi. and Dorchester,
Maryland. These counties were chosen
munities, and because typhoid lever
was prevalent to some extent in all of
them.

in the newspapers, gave moving pic

the church and used the methods of
the revivalist. By quoting from Deu-
teronomy, and showing that Moses had
advocated certain sanitary precautions,
they succeeded in arous:ng persons
who were needless of ar appeal that
lacked the sanction of religion.
Generally speaking, this educational
Evening star., 1915-01-09

campaign met with a gratifying re-
sponse. The county newspapers, almost
without exception, vigorously espoused
the cause of sanitation. Meetings were
generally we'll attended, and the vivid
portrayals in moving pictures of how
disease is spread were especially ef-
fective.
When this campaign had been COM
pleted the county was divided into dis
tricts, and inspectors were assigned to
go to each farm and house and to offer
suggestions for the betterment of sani-
tary conditions. 1t was found that
most people had never before thought
of the question, but when the condi-
tions existing in their own homes
were brought to their attention they
were generally willing to listen to ad-
vice. Not once in a thousand times was
their attitude unreasonable or dis
courteous.
On a large number of farms it was
found that sewage was not adequately
disposed of and that there was nothing
to prevent the transmission of filth to
the water supply and to human food
by flies, by drainage and by domestic
animals. A typical situation, and one

They have been accustomed to such
conditions and do not realize the

All that is necessary to remedy such
a situation as that described above is
to establish sanitary method of sew
age disposal, with movable receptacles,
which may be done for couple of
dollars, and to provide the well with a
cover and pump. These measures
were explained in detail by the public
health officers.
Women were found to be a great
deal quicker to respond to this appeal
than men, and the organization OF
women into community clubs" for the
purpose of promoting sanitation was
one of the most successful branches
of the work. At first meeting of
perhaps a dozen women would be held;
these would spread the propaganda,
and in a few weeks a membership of
several hundred would be obtained.
Women are the best takers in any
community, the officers found, and they

homes were accomplished. In cases

doesn't shave. If the whisker wearer
is young man John invariably takes
a tug at the delightful thing and
makes noise like a bird or a goat.
Many times in his career this has not
been received with kindly feelings at
all, and Johns hospital record is a long
one. His eye has been blackened and
his nose has been smashed at least
twenty times.
Just why John does this no one can

there that might be interesting. For in
