either from Dollar or the Jap

Now bear this in mind: without
the Seamen's law. the Pacific ship
ping was left entirely 10 Chinese
and Jap coolie sailors. even when
tho ships few American flags. The
Seamcn's law. therefore. cannot
make this situation worse
Can II make Il better Andrew
Furuseth. author OF tho bill. says II
positively will make II better. for
eventually Il will not only bring
real American vessels on the Pa
cific. manned by Americans. but
Il will also raise the standard OF
tho Jap sailor. taking him out OF
the coolie class.
HOW LAW WILL AID
AMERICAN MARINE
"a Jap will desert for money
Just az auckland quicker
than white man" says
Furuseth. "l've seen some OF
'em swim ashore. Japs will
leave their ships and sail In
other ships for more money.
Japanese boats may come here
with s7-a-month men, but they'll
clear with the same men at
s45 month"
You see, a Jap sailor who de-
serts will get the same protection
OF the Seamen's law as an Ameri-
can. lie won't be thrown into Jail
and brought back TO his country a
prisoner. as used to be the case
He will have a right to demand and
receive half the wages due him
when he gets TO an American port.
In the past. he had TO wait until he
got back TO Japan.
How long will II be. then, be-
fore he strikes for higher waees2
II he doesn't get more wages, and
enough sailors quilt, the Jap vessel
is tied up. II cannot clear out of
the American port without a legal
number Of able seamer.
WILL THE JAP QUIT
FOR MORE MONEY!
The thing SINNERS down TO this
question, says Kyne:
"Will the Japanese sailor de-
sert? VIII he stand pat for more
money or will he periodically join
forces with his owners and con
tnue 10 work for Sl2 a month";
II the Jap sailor gets the same
wages as Americans, or nearly so.
Americans can then operate Ameri-
can vessels for and by Americans.
"And, lastly" says kyne,
"the charge has been made that
the Seamen's bill Will absolute
Iy kill our merchant marine.

Things To Do This Week
By N. F. Chapman.

A live fly now means millions of de- cendants later on. Swat the fly. Poison the fly. Starve the fly. Trap the fly. Let us have home fly traps and municipal fly traps. However, traps will not protect us from flies if we do not destroy their breeding places.
 Screen your manure heaps. It is better to sleep in cold room than in cold grave. Clean water, clean food, clean air, clean hands these are the gems of health. Many an undertaken would go bankrupt if people were as careful of their health as they are of their mon- ey.
 A sanitary school is as essential to a child's health as is a good mother.
 If your dairy man cant show a health certificate from the State Health Board for his cows, don't pat ronize him, his milk is dangerous.
 There is no better way of sizing man than to compare his front yard with his backyard
 A barrel of lime and white wash brush can work wonders when placed in willing hands.

Fumigate your home. Air bed clothes and clothing.
 While we are cleaning the town, let's clean our homes-not in the old fashion way, which was we'll enough in itself, but let's add a few modern touches. Possibly we may be able to avoid some of the preventable dis eases.
 In addition to soap and water use a few bichloride tablets.
 If you are ready to put away your winter bed clothes, why not fumigate them before putting them away? Wash those that are washable, and if you have some tight room or closet, fumigate those that cannot be wash ed.
 Don't stop at the house, but clean and white-wash ali out houses. Tear down the useless fence or mussed shed. Fill all damp low places. Get covered garbage can.
 If you are not connected with the sewer, build sanitary closet.
 Screen your house thoroughly, and don't forget to screen the chimneys.
 Old piles of waste lumber about your home should be cut into kindling wood and stored in a sheltered place.
 Spruce up your premises.
 Open the doors and windows. Fresh air and sun are free. Use all of bot VOu can

THE FILTHY FLY---
 A PUBLIC MENACE

Under CnlS neaQlng series or short articles prepared by Prof. M. J. McHenry of the department of science in Hendrix College will be published from day to day in the Log Cabin Democrat. The articles will be found of great interest, as we'll as of great value from a standpoint of pub lie health and sanitation.
 SHALL WE FIGHT THE FLY?
 In view of the figures recently giv- en on the alarming reproductive pow CT of the fly many people seem to think it useless to kill flies as there are so many thousands to take their place. It is not useless. It is the pur- pose of these articles to prove that we can accomplish something by fighting the fly and that we OUGHT to fight it.
 Has it been done successfully? Yes, Cleveland, Ohio, has for two or more seasons carried on a highly satisfac- tory campaign against the fly. They went about it in systematic manner. Jean Dawson, Ph.D., was general di- rector. He organized forces among the school children and college girls. These made inspection of doubtful places, made personal appeals for sanitation and reported difficult cases. Wherever organic filth of any kind was encountered-and that is where, remember, the fly is hatched-effort was made to have the offending ma terial destroyed or removed. Swat ters" were freely supplied to every one and during the winter months 10 cents hundred was offered and paid to children for dead flies. Fly traps were placed in suspected places. The housewife-most potent factor for cleanliness-wase enlisted in the cam- paign to prod the store-keeper to ac- tion. The results of this attempt will be told in the next article.
 K.
 SHALL WE FIGHT THE FLY?
 They did not succeed in entirely eliminating the fly in the Cleveland campaign. But here are some of the results:
 Fifty thousand flies were killed and paid for during the winter months. Children carried swatters with them on their way to school and the appearance of fly in the sihool room caused commotion. The po- tentiality of these 50,000 flies, "over- winter" flies, was beyond estimation. Stable manure was collected regular ly and shipped to the country. The housewife did her duty so we'll that when on August 13 1,13S shops and other places where numerous flies might be expected were inspected, 131 of these were found to be entirely free of flies, 4S7 had less than 10, 514 had more than 10 but less than 50, and had many. It was noticed that in the height of the fly season, in August and September, broken mel on would lie on the street for hours and not a single fly appear near it.
 Surely if a city of 100000 could accomplish thing like this, a city of 4,000 ought to be able to achieve at least as much.

 BE CLEAN.

Do your part to make Con- way a clean city. Dirt and dis ease go hand in hand. Watch out for the fly; he is on the job today. Kill him.
 Have you a covered garbage can? Put your trash in box or sack so the city can handle it quickly.

MISTER FOX AND THE BONE

Unfortunately things sometimes
happen to the wisest animals. and this
vas proved to Jack Rabbit when he
ngain went to the hillside to see Mis-.
Ter Fox and learn of his wisdom. Jack
had been sauntering leisurely along
on his way from his burrow. not Civ
ing the least thought to the idea that
anything might have happened to his
friend, when. as he came in sight OF
the hillside, he say Mister Fox sitting
out in the sun. with his throat very
much wrapped up and a general look
Of detection in his attitude.
AS soon as he saw this Jack Rabbit
started on the run and arrived rather
out OF breath. What Is the matter
and why have you your throat wrapped
up on such a warm. pleasant day."
Mister Fox swallowed painfully be,

ter Fox. You know l told you that |
had dug a very fine hole under the
fence around Farmer Wilson's chick

kindness would result in some of the
chickens escaping the next morning.
Well, my suspicious were, as usual.
very correct, and the next morning a
fine large pullet, with my aid, came
out through the hole l had dug and,
strangely enough, | came along with
her and escorted her directly to my
house.
"She was very fine aud plump. and

We'll. what are you going to do?"
asked Jack Rabbit.
Mr.. Fox swallowed painfully again
and said: II don't quite know what
j can do, unless l follow the example
of one of my distant relatives OF long
ago, who, in a similar difficulty, sought
for a crane to relieve him."
