"Ta2PERARY'' TO RE SUNG BY
 HEALTM CONGRESS

On Saturday evening, May 8th Governor Mann of Virginia, will call to order in Huston, Texas the fourth session of the South ern Sociological Congress. This convention will be unique in three respects. It is primarily a Congress of leaders from all pro- fessions and vacations interest ed in social welfare. There will be present the Governors of several Southern states Congress- men, Mayors, Presidents of col leges and universities, leading Ministers and Physicians, Social Workers, officials of Women's Clubs, and hundreds of laymen wh6desire to promote the cause of Public Health.
 The program is unioue, This is the first time in the history of Amerlca when the GnClre pro- gram of a great congress has been on the one theme of the Prevention of Disease and the Conservation of Health. About seventy specialists are on the pro gram to speak on the Conserva- ton of Health, Physical, Mental and Moral. Even the exhibition, the moving pictures and the sing ing will be on health. The Vanderbilt Quartette will lead the singing of social hymns and the Congress will freven y sing a battle hymn especially written for this Health Crusade, to be sung to the tune of Tip perary".

OUR OvvN BLOCKADE

It is up to us to establish a blockade-to shut out from these shores the plaques that follow war We shall have to .fortify ourselves against an enemy that is sure to visit us, or try to, and we shall have to fight by night and by day to prevent being captured by the blight.
 These are the pest that follow all wars. Cholera, typhus fever, smallpox and other diseases fat ten upon the miseries that ensue when nations throw down the bars of sanitation. Europe is a pest house. The continent is ime-ridden. The tr e nc h e s weak with disease and in every city there are epidemics. We cannot hope to escape unless we take precautions at once.
 However, it is stated that the federal government is not sleep ing. Our public health service understands the situation better than the average layman, and we can rely upon the learned gentlemen in charge of the pub lie health to use their wisdom in protecting this country against the terrible ravages that will follow this summer unless we are on our guard. It is incredi- ble of belief that we could sit down and hope to escape simply because there is an ocean between us and the seat of the war. Disease knows no distance; the messengers of Death travel to the remotest abodes of men.

MAY USE CONNECTS

For the first time in it's history Arkansas may follow to a consid- erable extent the example of Illi- nois, Colorado and other states this year in working convicts on the highways. Under the new Alexander road law the amount of roads to be built in the state will be large and several county judges already have expressed desires to take advantage of the law, which allows them to use prisoners sentenced from their countries to less than five years.
 County Judge J. A. Marsh of White county announced that he would ask for the use of all the available prisoners f r m his county, including those that might be sentenced during the remainder of the year. Gazette.
 Carroll county could with ad- vantage make use of every state convict for the full term of his imprisonment to good advantage The same can be said of most North Arkansas counties. We need the roads and at the pre- sent rate of constructing them, by the free labor" of each dis trict, and from taxation, it will be many years before we have good roads.

TIME LlMETS FOR INFECTION

Have you not often wanted to know how long a child with scar let fever must be isolated after it is up and about or how long a child exposed to whooping cough was likely to come down with the disease?
 Gut this table out and keep it.. Some day you will be glad to have it in the house:
 Diptheria (membranous croup) may be communicable until two cultures have been taken from the nose and throat at intervals of tWenty-four hours and sent to a meteorological laboratory and found te be free from diptheria bacilli.
 ChickenpoX may be communic- able until twelve days after the appearance of the eruption and until the crusts have fallen and the scars are completely healed.
 Mumps may be communicable until two weeks after the appear ance of the disease and one week after the disappearance of the swelling.
 Measels may be communicable until ten days after the appear ance of the rash and until all discharges from the nose, ears and throat have disappeared and until the cough has ceased.
 Scarlet fever may be communi- cable until thirty days after the development of the disease and until discharges from the nose, ears and throat or suppurating glands have ceased.
 Smallpox may be communi- cable until fourteen days after the development of the disease and until scabs have all separat- ed and the scars completely heal ed.
 Whooping cough may be com municable until eight weeks after the development of the disease or until one week after the last characteristic cough.

yHE PESKY HOUSE FLY

The open season of the house fly is here once more. It ts the duty of every man, woman and child to join in the campaign against this dangerous insect. Cleanliness is the most effective Wiapon in the war upon this carrier of disease; cleanliness in the home and the stable, in streets and alleys; above all, in places where foodstuffs are pre- pared for the market or placed on sale. Bake shops, meatshops and the kitchens of restaurants should be the concern of every citizen, not of the board of Health alone. Fly hunting is repulsive; prevention in the prop CT places ruthless enforced when necessary, will ultimately do away with its necessity.

DO IT NOW

The man who leads fast life is said to 'burn the winds.
 The man who leads a life of carelessness about his premises ought to be put down as one who burns his own savings.
 A policy of "I'll attend to the trash tomorrow" has been re- sponsible for the heavens being lighted up by fires that consumed the accumulations of a life of effort not only thousands, but tens of thousands of times.
 Procrastination is not only the thief of time; it is the thief of the wealth of the world. He who procrastinates loses his own wealth.
 Vaccination is to avoid small poX. In times of epidemicwater is boiled to conserve health.
 Why not extend this list of things done as precautions. Why not wage eternal and per- petual, anceasing and unfagging warefare against the fire demon naVinp VO1 9 ViSit

BIRD LAW GOES
 INTO EFFECT
DEPARTMENT WGLE CONT1NUE 70 PROSECUTE ILLEGAL NElL-
 ING OF BIRDS

Many of the press comments on the decision of the United States district court, rendered March 20, at Topeka, Kans., holding that the Federal migra- tory bird law is unconstitutional, in the opinion of the department, are erroneous and are apt to mis- lead the public concerning the real situation in this matter.
 The Kansas decision, like a former decision to the same eff feet in the eastern district of Ar kansas, is limited in it's operation solely to the district in which it was rendered. Neither decision settles or nullifies the law, and the exact contrary has been held by the United States district court for South Dakota. The Arkansas case has been appealed to, and is now pending in the United States Supreme Court. The act of Congress protecting the migratory birds stands effect i've until the Supreme Court finally decides the question of it's cons titutionality. In the meantime, it is incumbent on every law-abiding citizen to ob- serve it's provisions and the reg ulations. It is the duty of the department to enforce this law, and the officials in charge will endeavor to do so as long as it is in force. Reports of violations will be carefully investigated, and when sufficient evidence is secured they will be reported for prosecution. In this connect ion it should not be forgotten that an offender against this, as in the case of other United States laws, is subject to prosecution any time within three years from the date the offense is con- mitted.

which IS courtesy-to toward every body The telephone companies have made great headway in this direction, and one can act ually ask a civil question of al- most any employe of a great corporation and expect to have a civil answer-a thing that did not formerly prevail.
 But we shall owe a debt of gratitude to the Pennsylvania railroad over and above that which will come from being at tended courteous treatment when we travel upon the road. For the vast number of employees of the road, trained in department, will have tremendous effect upon the public generally. And, in the final analysis, it is the public that must be trained in courtesy. There never would have been any trouble with railroads or other employees if they had them selves been treated courteously by the public.

TEACHING COURTESY

The Pennsylvania railroad is going to establish schools of courtesy for it's employees. It began some time ago to teach courtesy, in a sort of desultory way, and it has found that it paid so well it will now under take to give the employees that come into contact with the pub- lie thorough training in that branch of department.
 As matter of fact, many of the great corporations of this country are insisting that the employees be polite and kindly

STRAWBERRY WEEVIL
 DAMAGING THE CROPS
MAY BE CONTROLLED BY CLEAN ING FENCE ROWS, BURNING
 STRAW OVER PATCH

run the usual guantlet of freezes and frosts and gave promise for one of the largest berry crops in the history of northwest Arkan- sas the growers of parts of Washington county have had their hopes crushed by the ap- pearance of a little bug known as the strawberry weevil.
 That the pest may be controll- ed before it spreads to other sec tions of the state where the strawberries are a valuable crop Prof. George G. Becker, entomo- logist of the University of Ar kansas gives the following his- tory and methods of controlling the strawberry weevil.
 The insect causes it's damage by depositing eggs in the flower bud and then going down to the stem of the punctured flower, said Prof. Becker, and deliberately puncturing it at this point caus- ing the loss of the flower. Every flower so punctured means a loss of berry to the grower. The damage in parts of Washington county ranges from twenty to fifty per cent to the loss of an entire crop in some instances. Spraying is not effective for the pest and nothing can be done to prevent it's ravages for this year The fight against the Weevil must be made a year in advance by burning over beds and clean tug up rubbish along fence rows.
 If the growers are to control this pest they must get busy one year in advance. As soon as the crop is gathered this year the vines should be moved and al- lowed to dry. After this a light scattering of straw should spread over the patch and when a light wind is blowing the patch should be fired. The result of this is to roast the developing grubs and Weevils which are in the buds that have fallen to the ground. The firing should not be too severe. A hot fire of short dur ation is desirable and with a good wind blowing no damage will be suffered because of fire injury.
 We must clean up the places where the Weevils will spend the winter. This would be along fence rows and ditch banks where weeds have been allowed to grow. All such places should be cleaned up in the fall and burned over as soon as the vege- tation is dry enough. In addi- tion to this, it would be we'll to cut out all blackberry bushes and deWberry vines where they are growing up wild in the vicinity of the berry patch. Wild straw berries and volunteer berries, as well as old neglected and run down beds, are all a serious nuis- ance on account of the favorable conditions offered for the breed ing of the pests. In general, it might be said that. the pests is to be prevented and not controlled by the use of poisons or sprays. Common sense methods are the best means of decreasing injury from the pests. In fact the wee vii might generally be consider ed a product of neglect.
 Type circulars on methods of control and eradication of the strawberry Weevil are just off the press and are available to all residents of Arkansas upon ap- pIication to the department of entomology of the. University of Arkansas.

CHARITY AND ECONOMIC DISTRESS,

AT one can read with intelligent understanding the
IN report of the Associated Charities of this city
FOR the month Of January and fail TO appreciate the
value of the work done, the abnormal need there
is for such work the fact that in financial sense
should receive. better support from charitably- dis
posed men and The demands for relief and the
relief actually given, wero from five to six times
great last month they in January l. 1914 That
is shown conclusiyely by comparative official figures.
In January 1914 2O7 families asked for relief One
hundred of those families found TO be worthy and
received aid IN tho nature Of groceries and coal
January. 1915 lO3G families asked for relief and
5S3 OF them aided with groceries AMI coal after
investigation had been made relative to the honesty of
such appeals.
In other words. the number Of families in distress
and appealing for help last month almost exactly
five hines large in the corresponding month
year ago while the number of families actually aided
last January within seventeen of being six times
as large as that in January 1914
Those figures are highly significant They show
that. in economic sense, the situation which con-
fronts the Associated Charities is remarkable one
that il taxing it's to the utmost and threat
oning to exhaust them In fact the reasurers report
shows that on January 81 the cash balance hand
only S15115 II s estimated that fully S250O to
$4,000 viii be needed finance the relief work that
should be done this month and next month. It will
be seen therefore, that Wilmngtonians must prepare
to loosen their purse-strngs and make substantial
contributions IL the suffering that exists is to be re-
leyed The total spent last month for groceries was
$t167S2; for coal $3O2 As and for shoes, s1sS7O It
also may be said that Notwithstanding criticism aris
ing from general and unconhrmed stories Of delay, it
is the practice of the associations Investigators to
visit within twonty-our hours Of the time an appeal
is received every family that asks for aid that is
reported TO the association being in distress.
The figures given in the report show that many i'm
posters endeavor TO prey upon the association and
a. fnrtf az
fact TO emphasize the need for organzed charity
in our community. SO far the money in hand
would 60 the members of the association feel that it
has been spent wisely and well and that very little has
gone TO undesorvng persons. No effort has been
spared to protect the for the benefit of those who
deserve it, So far IL is practicable. tho work of
the association done by volunteers and the cost OF
distributing the relief is reduced to the lowest possible
minimum
our community should proceed az to replenish
the treasury of the association TO the end that there
shall be no halting OF tho benefccnt and necessary
work il has in hand.
