Smallpox Alarming
4, State Health Board

Smallpox in Connecticut has in
creased at an alarming rate, accord
ing to DR.. John T.. Black, secretary OF
the state board of health. DR.. Black
announced yesterday that CT cases
have been recorded by the board dur
ing the last two months. Five cases
were reported this week.
DR.. Black said:
"The most dangerous feature of this
situation is that many cases of small
pox-mild ones, it is true-have not
been reported. It is safe to say that
at this moment, when the epidemic
should be throttled, many victims Of
smallpox, suffering in mild way, are
going about the state without medical
attention and endangering hundreds
of individuals as we'll as scores Of
communities.
Vaccination is the only sure pre-
tentative in this epidemic"

In Raw Oyster

There is something in this dish
of oysters" said ]. II. Beiger a
Mishawaka councilman. while dining
at the Washington restaurant last
evening about Z o'clock.
He then investigated and found
that there really was something in
the dish, in fact it was a rather
valuable something. for on producing
the foreign object he found that ii
was a pearl. 1t was of rather large
size and perfect in formation.
A travelling jeweler who happened
to be eating at the restaurant was
one of those who gathered around
to view the object. He stated that
the pearl was in good shape and
valued it at around S125.
The oysters were raw, being
shipped here in bulk The pearl
was as good as when it was lifted
from the sea along with the oyster.
Mr.. Beiger pocketed the pearl and
announced that in the future he in
tended eating plenty of oysters, but
will insist on having them brought
TO the table raw.
