Features on Program.

Schools 1915 graduating class are in
no doubt today as to what the future

L. Ball and Marie E. Walcott, and the
stories they drew out Of the future

the graduates themselves.

vACAT|0N|ST IS WARNED
IN SELECTING LOCATION
District Health Department Gives
Some Valuable Hints About
Plans for Summer.

Make sanitation the prime considera-
ton in selecting a place to spend your
summer vacation.
This is the advice of the health de-
partment. which gives some valuable
hints about vacation plans in a bulletin
just issued. They are as follows:
Ordinarily. the questions asked
when one is seeking place to spend
the summer. or to send the family Cor
the summer, include the character of
the food and sleeping quarters, the
temperature, the accessibility to tho
city. But the al1-important question
What Is and has beef the healthful-
ness Of the proposed summer home? Is
frequently omitted. Therefore. IN
choosing a summer residence the hrst
thing to have in mind is the sanitary
environment.
"Is the water that is used for drink
ing purposes good? Perhaps 1t is, and
again, 1t may be contaminated with
matter that may lead to typhoid fever.
Typhoid fever is a disease that summer
tourists frequently contract.
Other Things to Be Considered.
rs the house screened against the
pesky fly and the malarial mosquito?
Is the summer home located in a
swampy region? II so. kerosene the
swampy ground and screen the house.
See, too, that the outhouses are prop
erly constructed and screened. What
methods are in vogue for the proper
disposition of the garbage and waste
from the kitchen?
What kind of cows furnish the
milk, the cream and the butter? Have
they been tuberculin tested. are they
clean and cared for properly?
I'm brief-are the comforts of the
place you have selected for your vaca-
tion as ideal or as nearly ideal as are
unable to make a personal inspection,
or to obtain the advice of persons who
have spent a vacation period at the
place where you propose to spend the
summer. or II you have any doubt In
your mind whatsoever, consult or write
to the health officer of the locality un-
der consideration.

The Girl Graduate

In school, academy and college
stands forth the modern cultured
girl, her lovely head so stuffed
with knowledge it fairly makes
her tresses curl. We all lean
back in admiration when she
stands up to make her speech,
the finest product of the nation.
the one serene, unblemished
peach. Behold her in her snowy
garments, the pride. the honor OF
her class! A malediction on the
varmints who say her learning
cuts no grass! 'She hasn't
learned to fry the mutton, she's
not equipped to be wife; she
couldn't fasten on button, to
save her sweet angelic life! With
all her mighty fund of learning,
she's ignorant of useful chores;
she cannot keep an oil stove burn
ing so it won't smoke us out OF
doors. The man she weds will
know disaster, his dreams OF
home and love will spoil: she can
not make a mustard plaster, or
put a poultice on boil Avaunt,
We croakers, skip and caper, or
we'll upset your apple-carts! The
damse1 rises with her paper on
"Old Greek Gods and Modern
Arts" So pledge her in grape
Juice fagon! Who cares if she
can sew or bake? She's pretty
as a new red wagon. and swceter
than an old plum cake.

lated. cabled to this country in part
and printed in several newspapers Of
the United States the article was in
terpreted to reflect seriously upon the
corps of correspondents in Washington
and the newspapers Of this country.
The governors of the National Press
Club. while suspending judgment on
DR.. Barthelme, took occasion to de-
nounce as false what appeared in the
partial reports of the article cabled
here, as general charges against United
States newspapers and newspaper men.
DR.. Barthelme has asked the club to
await decision until he can get copy
Of the paper. which may be translated
by any one the club chooses to select.
A cabled dispatch from Germany
states that the Barthelme article de-
scribes the state of mind in the United
States after the sinking of the Lusi-
tania, and translates one paragraph to
besieged by bloodthirsty gang of
scribblers, just as the judgment seat
OF Plate was once assailed by mob
shrieking Cruelty Him." Other phrases
cording to the cabled translation, were
"a bowling, bawling rabble" and "a
learned mob in English pay"
Governors Take Action.
The serious reflections caused the
governors of the National Press Club
to take: action on the matter, as DR..
Barthelme is a member of the club. The
German correspondent filed with the
governors last night a statement. to-
gether with a copy Of a letter he had
written to a Washington newspaper
which had commented on the cabled
translation. In that letter DR.. Bar
thelme said the translation was not
correct, and that his article referred to
many on the part of the editorials ap-
pearing in specially designated Ameri-
can papers. He said further that he
made no comment, and had made no re-
flections on the Washington newspaper
men.
The board of governors issued a
statement saying:
This story, as cabled back to this
country, constitutes grave and false
reflection upon the American press and
the Washington corps of correspond
ents. AS a result of a communication
to the board, DR.. Barthelme has issued
a preliminary statement, and asks that
judgment be suspended until the Co.
logne Gazette with the full context OF
his story reaches this country for cor
rect translation.
