HEALTH a PATRIOTIC DUTY
Pamphlet Urges Every Citizen to Join
an Organized War on
: Disease.

In pamphlet entitled "Fighting
Trim" issued by the United States
public health service, Surgeon ]. M.
Eager lays stress upon personal en-
deavor of every individual as of the
highest public Importance in the or
,ganized war against disease. The
wonderful victories that have been
won in combating infectious maladies
have had tendency to divert popular
attention from the equally important
personal fortification against diseases
Of all kinds. The question Of prepared
ness against onslaughts of the enc.
my a query prominent in the minds
of everyone in these days of warfare.
is put in special personal bearing as
relating to the dangers threatened by
disease. the permanent enemy of
mankind.
Are you personally prepared. 1t is
asked, for the hand-to-hand encounter
with disease that you are sure to be
forced into sooner or later or in which
perhaps you are already engaged? Un-
less you are willing to succumb with
out a struggle, fight you must, no mat
ter how feeble your fighting proclivi-
ties are. The inevitability OF the bat
tie against disease is strongly insist
ed upon.
In the defense against disease two
things are necessary--a systematic
union of fighters, the sanitary organi-
zation, and personal preparedness. the
product Of intelligent and diligent per
sonal hygiene. Personal prepared
ness is the patriotic duty OF every citi-
zen as an aid to national sanitary de-
tense. No man as a member of So
ciety is morally free to live unhy-
gienically or to acquire disease
through lack of personal care. Like
a slovenly soldier. the person who
neglects his health risks imparting to
others his loose morale. or even trans
mitting disease to the whole commun-
fly.

life of any person now living but it
will not be more than century when
the original American will have passed
off this continent. There are enough
Indians left on the reservations to

of environment have done their work.

Lack of Coal Makes
 Swiss Industries Quit

Basic. Switzerland, Dec. 1.-swiss Industries have to grapple with in creased difficulties arising for the most rart from the want of raw material and theNcessation of coal imports from Germany.
 In northern and eastern Switzerland a number of works. notably weaving sheds, are idle in spite of ample or- ders. On the other hand the St. Gall lace industry. the largest and most important of it's kind, is doing very we'll.
 Over fifty Swiss manufacturing firms receive no coal from Germany, that country having put them on her black list because of real or imaginary delivery of war material to her ene- mics. It was hoped that the Swiss Import Trusts operations would di1 n1ir1ish the general anxiety with which the winter isslooked forward ito, but people are disappointed with their progress, though everything is being done to put the Trust on a prac- tical basis. In any case it cannot be expected to work on business lines for several weeks yet and even then is not likely to overcome all difficulties,

War Causes Germans
 To Produce 3 Times
 As Much Marmalade.

Berlin, Dec. 1.-The unusually large crop of fruit throughout Ger many this fall Fhas made unnecessary the existence of a conservation organ ization known as the War Commit tee of the Fruit Manufac curing In dustry.'' This, composed of manu- facturers of preserves and marma- lades, was formed when it was feared that large quantities of fruit would go to waste unless some step was taken to make it into substitutes for butter and fat
 Individual manufacturers all over Germany have taken the initiative themselves, however, and report that beca use Of the good season they have produced twice and in some cases three times as much marmalade as usual. Virtually all the rest of the crop not so used has been eaten as fresh fruit. No less than 200 German cit ies have imported carloads of apples, pears and the like for their popula- tions. Germany not only has eaten an unprecede tented amount of fruit this season, but has also a record amount of preserved fruit on hand for fu- ture needs.

 Natty Swagger Sticks

Washington, Dec. Major Gene ral Commandant George Barnett of the United States Marine Corps has sanctioned the carrying of swagger sticks by marines when ashore in uniform, or-out of garrison. The idea is borrowed from Cousin Tommy At kins' of the British army, and it is thought that the carrying of the sticks will add distinction to the Ma rine's already attractive uniform. The sWagger sticks are made from various kinds of wood and are usually 24 or 26 inches long. K Chinese bullets are sometimes used for ferrules and for eign coins for the heads

English Women Are Stealing Watch Trade
 Secrets Say Swiss

Berne, Switzerland, Dec. 1.-Sev- eraI Swiss papers are complaining that unless preventive steps are taken, the Swiss watch-makihg industry is going to be seriously impaired by shrewd English women, who are charged with having procured employment in Swift zerland for the purpose of learning trade secrets, and then returning to England and divuIging the secrets to wounded soldiers. As a result, the papers claim, a considerable Swiss watch industry has already been built up in England, which is competing strongly with Switzerland.
