GOOD MOON TO COPY

February will be a notable month
inasmuch as the moon will not be-
come "full" during that time, and it
is reckoned that it will be 100000
years from now before the moon re-
mains on the water wagon during
February, or in other words, does not
become "full." The last time the
moon failed to become "full" in any
month was in February 1866.
By referring to the almanac, it will
be learned that the February moon
does not become a full moon until
March first, but as if to celebrate her
sobriety during the previous month
luna will get full again on March 80.
1t is an odd combination of circum-
stances, but if there is anything in
signs, it may be cited that 1866 was
a peace year following a big war.

GERMS LIKE GIRLS BEST

Fathers and mothers lucky enough
to have both boys and girls know how
clean the girls keep themselves, and
how the boys disregard dirt" says Dr.
H. w. Hill, of the Minnesota Public
Health Association. "From earliest
childhood the little girls hands and
face are washed, and she evades
dress stains, combs her hair, and tries
to look nice. But every normal boy,
up to the age Of Ia, revels in dirt, and
looks forward to the Saturday night
bath with virtuous contempt or dread
But boys do not suffer infectious dis
eases as much as girls. This was
brought out in an investigation made
of 5000 children of all ages and sex
es. We requested the mother them
selves to report what diseases their
children had had. Girls had had more
infections than boys of the same age.
This goes to support the modern view
that dirt and disease have no neces-
sary relation. 1t is not the dirt boys
revel in that does harm. 1t is the
germs in other peoples bodies that
should be dreaded. The girls encoun-
ter infection more than the boys be-
cause they are more sociable, meet
other children more, and associate
with them more intimately than boys
do

Notice To the Public.

During the past few months the
public have used the lawn in front OF
the Episcopal church as a public high
way. This practice will badly dam
age the lawn and it is urgently re-
quested that the citizens who have
been in the habit of cutting across
to save a few steps will discontinue
the practice. Otherwise more strin-
gent methods will have to be adopt
