The announcement by the Beneficial

the spring to erect new building that
will replace the present one on the lot at
the southwest corner of 18th and Chest

more than fifty years, gives an idea OF
how real estate values have risen. Not

THE UBIQUITOUS PNEUMOCOCCUS
AND SOME OF ITS MANY STUNTS
BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.

TTERE is title that may be fairly
i i dubbed a Jaw breaker" but with n
little practice you can say It right off
just like a doctor: thus, the ou-bick-wit'-
us Numo-cock- in words Of one
syllable. The All-round Gold" DIicrobc.
The pncumococcus. commonly known as
tho pneumonia germ, is an all-round
pest in a double sense Virtually every
ono harbors a growth of pncumococcl in
the mouth cavity all the year round, at
least one out of every five individuals
being Carriers Of real, businesslike, viru-
lent specimens capable Of starting some
thing most any time. Tho other four in
dividuals seem to have tanned their pneu-
moCoCci somewhat. so that the germs are
comparatively harmless or incapable of
innictlng much damage on the host or
his associates.
Not only is the pneumococcus every
where looking for an opening, but he is
q versatile bug" into the bargain. On
short notice he can prepare himself to
fill nearly any role for which self-re-
spccting niCrobe may he cast. For In
stance, while his favoritc tragedy Is
pneumonia, he Is equally at home In such
popular productions as The Snufflc-
Snecze," Tho Sore Throat Girl" "Grum-
py's Cough" Exquisite Elsie's Ear
ache OF even MARY AIMS Appendix y
Indeed MIR. Pncumococcus at his best
will reach any mans heart and seriously
Impair its pumping capacity, and once
in a while actually reaches his joints
and lays him up with nice, warm, fur
nished rheumatism.
All of which is not new. Our ancestors
for generations back recognized tho work
of Mr.. Pneumococcus, though he had not
then been discovered, and called the
whole repertory bad colds" settled here

VETERAN HOTEL MAN FEELING
FINE ON HIS DOTH BIRTHDAY
Peter S. Attick's Time Taken Today
by Reading of Congratulations

This is the 9Oth birthday OF Peter s.
Attick and he's feeling just fine. For
some years this veteran hotel man has
been living at the home of his daughter.
Mrs. II. w. Thorn, ill9 Barring street, and
he is celebrating there today only with
members of the family. for MIR. Thorn
said he wouldn't he able today to see all
his friends, his time being all taken by
the reading of cOngratulatory messages.
In his working days Mr. Attick was ono
of the best known hotel men In the East,
and through that service he formed
friendships that extended TO all parts Of
the world. Every vecr thssc friends re-
member the anniversary of his birth.
Moro than % years ago he was cashier
of the cd Girard House, once at the north
east corner OF 9th and Chestnut streets.

time very fashionable resort.

and there in the weak places. The
principal fault with that easy-going way
of disposing OF the subject was that the
primary Cnusative factor-Mr. Pneumo-
coccus-was lost in the shuttle, and
everybody kept passing him around in
the most selfish way, until the common
cold" ultimately became indigenous in
every household In short, the pneumo-
coccus became exactly what we have
called him in our title-ubiquitous.
Owing TO this ubiquity the wisdom of
isolatng colds is questioned by many
physicians. 1t seems to be tho general
opinion that cold" carriers are SO
numerous that isolation of occasional.
victime here and there would be loves
labor lost. Even the treatment of lSonwn
carriers with view to freeing their
mouths Of virulent pneumococci would
be Job so stupendous at the present
time as to staggcr the most enthusiastic
health officers. Lot the cold carriers
alone, they say; let them go on carry
ing colds to Newcastle.
But dwellers In Newcastle may mean
while take certain precautions for their
neighbors. They may have cleanup"
day once in a while; day when extra
efforts shall be made to clean UP the

other dsnfCctants. An absolutely clean
mouth will certainly 40 a long way
toward emphasizing the quit in the
ubiquty OF Mr. Pneumococcus.

OBSCUR|TY OF
TRAFFIC RULES
BOTHERS JUDGE
Monsarat Dismisses Several
Alleged Offenders Until All
Points are Made Clear

Difficulty In understanding the new
traffic signals. and disagreement as
to just what the signals mean have
led to strong protests by several men
arrested for violating the ordinance,
and because Of the doubt about the
signals Judge Monsarrat has dismiss
ed several alleged offenders and post
poned some cases.
When the new system was first In
troduced drivers were eivea the Inn
preston, that when an officers arms
were extended from his shoulders
along the line Of . street, the street
was open for traffic and that vehicles
travelling on the lntersecting street
could make the right hand turn into
the open street Unless this is the
case 1t is difficult. drivers say, to see
how the turn into another street is to
be made unless on special signal; and
as the new system was adopted to do
away with the special signal system
as far as possible. they took for grant
ed the privilege Of making the right
hand turn into the street open for traf-
fic.
Omcers do not understand 1t this
way, or at least some of them do not,
and several men have been arrested
for making the right hand turn into
an open street without waiting for per-
mission from an officer. Others have
been arrested for not stopping within
20 feet of a corner after they were
stopped. when beginning to make the
right hand turn by signal from an.
officer.
San Francisco and other coast cities
use the single signal" system, which
is one street open at time and no
special signals, all legitimate traffic
proceeding along the open street and
all vehicles making the right hand
turn into the open street being regard
ed as legitimate The left hand turn
into street is taken when the street
on which the vehicle is travelling is
open and the other street closed.
Judge Monsarrat has demanded
some definite information about the
signals from Deputy City Attorney Car.

David L. Conkling, city and county
treasurer, has joined the regular staff
Of the morning paber,, retaining at the
same time his city position. Mr..
Conkling took up mis- new work last
Saturday. He is covering daytime
happenings.
II have taken up this new work as
result of becoming involved in q
financial ENHANCEMENT which made
a larger income imperative in order
that may meet c1rtain unforeseen OBJ
legations says Conkling.
at is true ! am absent from the
city offices a good deal" he continued.
"but work overtime, often until mid
night, to make up for II, Ny new work
has not entailed any extra help in
the treasurer's office, nor any extra
expense to the city, The law requires
the treasurer's office to be open from
8 until on week days, but find moth.
ing which demands my presence there
at any specified times, or for any GER
tain length of time each day."
Mr.. Conkling receives a salary of
$3.50 month from the city and coun.
ty as treasurer. When Mayor Lane
was appraised Of the new departure his
only comment was:
This should be looked into The
matter is all new to me, and is wor-
thy of consideration, but II he is doing
this new work out of hours suppose
We can have no say"
City and County Attorney A. NJ.
Browns comment was:
''Mr. Conkling's action is legal, as
far as l know. 1t would appear that
a public officer should devote all his
time to his duties as an officer but,
If the work of his office is light, and
he has an opportunity to do some.
thing on the outside, l cannot think
of anything to stop Mr.. Conkling."
