HOME COMING
SEASON AT HAND

From now until Christmas day,
nearly every train will bring one or
two people back to Morgan City to
spend the holidays. For this once in
the year they all want to get back to
the old home town. Perhaps due to
business alliances, some other town
or city is good enough for the rest OF
the year, but when the Xmas season
approaches, they begin to make
plans to spend the holidays in their
old home town. They want to see
their folks and the friends of their
youth. For few days are content
to forget their search for fame and
for riches and to be just plain John
or Mary to all the folks in the home
burg. They come from the schools,
the offices and the factories. The
magic word Of home holds them in a
trance for the season, after which
they go back to conquer the world
again. 1t does not matter that con-
tentment seems to be in the land
just over yonder, they think that to-
morrow they will find it
There are still others who find
Morgan City an excellent place to
live in, but one week of the year.
They too must go home to Waco, or
Wheeling, or Duluth at Christmas
time. They too will come back after
the first Of the year and tackel their
work with renewed energy. This has
been a custom for many years. To
the ones who must go away, we say
hurry back and to those who come
home we say stay as long as posi-

Couahinu and Sneezing.

The uproar of coughing and sneez-
ing throughout the land during the
widespread epidemic of influenza has
led medical experts to call attention
to the fact that coughing or sneezing
is largely habit and may be con-
trolled. "If you have never tried il"
writes a well known expert, "The
next time you are tempted to cough
or clear your throat, see how well
you can get along without doing so,
and after little practice you will
find your control complete. Cough
ing is for the most part a nervous
habit, due to a tickling in the throat
brought on by previous coughing, and
also by a sort of unconscious imita-
tion of persons who make no effort
to restrain their coughing" By not
coughing and sneezing. a community
would do much toward arresting the
spread of winter maladies.

HEALTH NOTES OF INTEREST
FROM THE STATE BOARD

Superintendent A. j.. Lovett and
his teachers have been making a

to lear nto what extent pupils are
repeating their grades by reason Of
physical defects that could be rem.
edied. The survey has not been fin
ished, but it has disclosed a number
Of important facts. OF 671 pupils
belonging to the grades, 449 have
been regularly promoted at the end
of each year; 1873 have repeated one
years work; G3 have repeated two
years work; "A three years work.
and six four years work. Seventy
two are repeating at the present time
The average salary Of grade teachers
in Blackwell is S55 month. In
teachers salaries alone it is costing
Blackwell $l10 a month to care for
these repeaters among the grade pu-
pills. 1t is said that the chief cause
of failure to make grades is irregular
attendance due to physical defects or
illness. 1t is estimated that Black
well is paying $4,000 a year for the
extra time that teachers are devoting
to pupils or prevented entirely by
adequate medical inspection and at
tenuon. The aggregate of this cost
to all the public schools of Oklaho-
ma would reach large sum- Failure
to make grades is a misfortune to
pupils, as IT is financial loss to tax
payers. Medical inspection of pupils |

Kill the Parasite Of Malaria.

In review of progress in the pre-
yention of disease in the United
States during 1915, the federal gov
ernment calls attention to the mis-
taken belief that malaria winters in
the bodies of mosquitoes. As mat
ter of fact, the malaria parasite is
carried in the human body from sea-
son to season, and is transmitted by
the mosquito. OF the population tf
20,000,000 in the southern states, it
is estimated that at least per cent
suffer annually an attack of malaria.
Quinine is a specific for malaria, and
if persons suffering from malaria
would take a sufficient quantity of
quinine in the spring of each year,
scientists are of the opinion that the
spread of malaria could be checked
and ultimately disappear as a bodily
There is no doubt that man,
no less than the mosquito, is respon-
sible for the existence and spread of

The Conuuests Of Science.

In past wars disease was more
deadly than shot and shell to human
life. The year 1915 witnessed a
reversal of this condition, by the ap-
plcation of scientific discoveries to
the control and prevention of com
municable diseases. Mankind never
before was so secure against the
ravages of disease, whether it be
typhus, typhoid, pneumonia or tetan-
us. Education of the public in mat
ters of health, and the diligent eff
forts of national and state authorities
to stamp out preventable disease are
responsible for this happier outlook
upon life by the human race.

Of BOILER ON
FRISCO TRAIN
LOCOMOTIVE BLOWS UP NEAR SA-
PULPA, KILLING ENGINEER AND
FlREMAN-NO PASSENGERS IN
JURED.

Sapulpa, Okla, Jan. 16.-EXplosion
of the boiler of engine No. 1902, pull
ing westbound train No. 8, four miles
west of this city, this morning, caused
the death of Engineer Harry d. Smith
and Fireman Floyd Ames Conwell,
both of Oklahoma City. Both men were
horribly scalded. No other persons
were injured.
Train No. from st. Louis,in charge
of Conductor A. G. Rosenberg, also of
Oklahoma City, left Sapulpa at 1885
o'clock this morning. 1t was about
three hours late. At the time of the
accident it was running at the rate of
ten miles per hour, because of the
grade and heavy traffic.
The train had passed about one hun
dred yards beyond trestle, when the
passengers saw a large cloud of smoke
and steam burst forth across the right
of-way, with a muffled report and echo.
The train stopped with a jolt as if
the air had been suddenly applied.
There was no panicky feeling among
the passengers, for none had realized
what had happened.
Trainmen and passengers left the
coaches and hurried forward to the
cloud of smoke and steam that hung
over the head of the train. AS the air
cleared they saw the locomotive boil
er lying to the right of the track. 1t
was a few feet ahead of the engine
trucks still on the rails.
The front end of the boiler was
blown out. This suggested that it had
exploded in that end, carrying the
mass of steel forward clear of the en-
CINE trucks which were left standing
upon the track in perfect condition,
with the exception of the rear set of
wheels on the tender, which were de-
rallied.
1t was first thought that the engin-
eer and firemen were buried under the

To Caucus Early.

During the afternoon the two
houses probably will caucus and ar
range plans for speedy completion of
the work of the session. There is
every indication so far that the ses-
sion will not last longer than thirty
days. The house committee on en-
ployes, headed by Representative
Luther Harrison Of Seminole county,
met in the Lee-Huckins hotel Sunday
afternoon and practically agreed upon
the list of house employees, which
will be submitted to the body Monday,
Every effort is being put forth by
leaders to receive the governors mes
sage Monday, so that bills on the
subjects he proposes may be intro
duced the first day of the session,
and thus save that much time. 1t is
understood the governor will not take
up all OF the subjects he is likely to
propose in his first message.

CONVE NE D
THIS MORNING
ALL PLANS ARE PRACTICALLY
AGREED UPON - NO BILLS TO
BE PRESENTED UNTIL COVER.
NoR'S MESSAGE is RECEIVED.
(From The Oklahomn)

Formalities, preliminaries, and eau.
cuses will occupy the attention of
members of both branches of the
legislature, which convenes in eX.
traordinary session Monday morning,
according to practically complete
plans agreed upon by legislative lead
ers who had arrived at the capitol
up to late Sunday night.
The actual work of the session, in
Guiding the introduction of bills, will
not be reached probably until some
time Tuesday. No bills, it is under
stood, will be presented until after re-
ceipt of the governors message and
the exact time of it being transmitted
to the body had not been agreed
upon Sunday night. 1t is not expect
ed much before Monday night or Tues
day morning. The message comprises
a little more than forty long type
written pages and the governor may
not read it.
A death has occurred in the mem
bership of both the senate and the
house since the last regular session.
Those who died are Senator A. C.
Beeman of Cherokee and Representa-
tive T.. o. McCance of Woodward.
Both houses plan to meet, transact
very little business and adjourn for
short period out of respect to the
memory of their dead members. The
adjournment will be preceded by the
adoption of resolutions of respect.
Call to Order at Nine.
Both houses will be called to order
by their presiding officers at O'Clock
Monday morning, which is the time
specified for the convening of the
session by the governor in his call.
The senate will come to order on the
call of Lieutenant Governor Ed Trapp
and the house will be called to order
by Speaker A. McCrory of Ringing,
jefferson county.
When adjournment is taken it prob
ably will be until such time as the
governors message will be received.
In the meantime, committees will be
appointed to notify the governor that
the legislature is in session. When
the two houses are called to order
it is probable resolutions will be
passed continuing in effect the old
organization. This has been repeat
edly suggested and there apparently
is no objection to it.
