Several Incendiary Fires
.There have been several incendiary
fires during the past few months, due
possibly to the financial stringency,
which have caused heavy losses. There
have been about 20 fires in vacant
houses which invariably incurs total
loss because of no one turning in the
alarm soon enough.
There have been several houses
burned recently in the outlying sec
tions. owing to the fact that they were
out of reach of fire MIGRANTS. This con-
dition exists because of the fact that
in some locations there are no water
mains whebey hydrants may be in

I'm conclusion, would say that the

PLAN REJECTED
ROebuck and Southern Clubs
Will Not Be Operated
Under One Name

The board of governors of the Roe
buck Springs Auto Golf club, at a
meeting yesterday, unanimously decided
looking to a consolidation with the
Southern club. Announcement to this eff
feet was made yesterday afternoon by
Robert A. Brown, president of the Roe
buck club.
For the past several days there has
been underway a discussion of the pro-
posed consolidation of the city club and
the Roebuck club situated at Roebuck
Springs. The members of the two or
CARNATIONS were interested in the plan
and the governors have been confer
ring about the situation. The initiative
was taken yesterday by the Roebuck
governors at the meeting held in the
local offices of that organization.
1t was the ambition of some members
of both clubs that a plan would be
formulated which would permit the con-
solidation and operation of the two
clubs under one name aSld one organi-
cation However, objections were made
to the plan and the two bodies found
1t impossible to get together.
President Brown said yesterday in
announcing the final decision in regard
to the consolidation that the meeting
of the governors yesterday was not fea~
tured with any other business except
the decision as to the negotiations. He
did say, however, that several new
members had been elected and that the

measures, comparatively few pupils of
the schools have been reported Ill with
contagious disea ses the great majority
of cases reported have been of children
not in any school. So far as | have been
able to learn, when case of contagion
has occurred in any class room. no other
cases have followed as result of con-
tagion.
Il wish however, to call the attention
of parents to the fact that the greatest
danger of infection is with children out
of school, owing to the fact that We have
no effective quarantine of infected homes
The children excluded from school on ac
count of exposure to contagion generally
are allowed to play on the streets and in
the yards of their neighbors, to travel OIL
street cars. to attend sunday school or
picture shows, and to mingle promiscu-
ously with other children Until an eff
fective home quarantine is provided, l an
of the opinion that the public school is
about the safest place for the children"
DIR. Cunningham's Comment
DIR. Cunningham's report is as fol-
lows:
You will observe that the death rate
of white per 1000 is 1881; black, 21.S7;
total. 1890. This is a most excellent
percentage and is lower than the vast
majority of cities, and is the best death
rate among negroes observed in a long
time. tuberculosis about holds its own
as a cause of mortality. The birth rates
are about as usual.
''Of the communicable diseases,
measles Is far in the lead. The most
important at this time of this class of
diseases is scarlet fever there being
during the month of March 70 cases.
You will observe from exhibit d that
during the first three months of 1918
there were 1872 cases of scarlet fever
There were more cases during the nrst
three months of 1915 than there were
during the first three months OF 1911,
1912, 1913 and 1914. Scarlet fever is an
endemic disease in all cities--that Is
there is always present small number
of cases. At this time, scarlet fever is
prevailing as q slight epidemic There
were four deaths from scarlet FEVER
during the month of March. There seems
to be two types of the disease prevail
ing; a very mild type and a very severe
type. Many of these cases of the mild
type are not sick enough to go to bed,
and they no doubt continue in school at
least for day or two after they are
taken ILL A malignant type of scarlet
fever may be caused by the contagion
from q mild type.
THE department Is doing what it can
to check this epidemic 1t has to rely
upon the cooperation and willingness
of parents and guardians to enforce
quarantine. The department has no
power or means to force quarantine.
Complaint is often made by neighbors
that the flags put up to mark contagious
diseases are not always respected by
the family and the public. Those max
ing complaints, however. often do not
give their names. and all refuse to Ap-
pear N court The probability IL that
