THE TEXAS BORDER
Lieut.. Henna Gives Interesting Talk to
Philbrook Bible Class

An entertainment was given in the
vestry of the Winthrop Street Baptist
church Tuesday evening by the Phil
brook Mems Bible class and a large
| number of the friends of the class were
in attendance. Vocal and instrumental
music was furnished and the principal
feature of the evenings entertainment
was very interesting address given by
End Lieut.. Chester B. Henna, recently
returned from the Texas border after
four months duty there with the End
Maine Regiment.
Lieut.. Henna, who has had quite bit
of experience as a lecturer gave a very
graphic account of the experiences of
the troops after leaving this city for the
border. He stated that their hardest bat
tie was that of leaving their relatives
and friends here and told of the hard
ships of the travel in day coaches be-
tween this city and Kansas City, where
they were transferred to the sleeping
cars. He gave a very fine account Of
their arrival at Laredo, saying that they
were met by ladies from the Red Cross
Society with ice cold milk. sandwiches
and cigars and he praised the Red Cross
people highly for their work in behalf Of
the soldiers.
He then went on to tell of the hike
from Laredo to Zapata, describing the
hardships undergone by the green troops
on the way. and said that they deserved
great credit for the manner in which
they completed the long hike. The re-
mainder of his address was given over
to descriptions of the life in camp and
on outpost duty. descriptions of the man.

THE PARENT-TEACHER
ASS'N'S LITTLE TALK
ABOUT THE MEASLES

Because of the epidemic of measles
in our city schools the Parent-Teachers
Association of this city felt that per-
haps a word or two about the conta-
gion or way of catching" the disease,
the care of the sick person and the
precaution to be used during GONZALES
cence so that others would not take it,
would be appreciated by the teachers
and parents.
A person suffering from measles
should have the best of care How Of
ten we hear it said: They have only
got the measles" The United States
Public Health report says that 1900
children died of measles in the United
States in one year. And it further
states that it is little less than Grim
inal to allow a child who has measles
to associate with other children.
The disease comes on with sneezing,
discharge from the nose. fever and
headache. The child should be put to
bed and the doctor sent for. The ear
the eyes and the lungs will suffer I'M
less he is well taken care of. These
symptoms will appear from the 10th
to the 14th day after they have been
exposed on the fourth or fifth day. A
red rash will be seen on the neck and
chest. This will continue for three or
four days. Keep the child in bed in a
well ventilated room. Give only light
food while the fever lasts. Avoid
draughts because of the danger of
pneumonia. He should not go back to
school without the permission of the
doctor, The sputum, urine and faces
all contain germs which might cause
a serious epidemic. Toys, books, ETC.,
which have been used by the patient
should be destroyed.
Keep the children from those who
have been exposed to the disease. Keep
them in the fresh air. Give plenty of
nourishing food. Spray the nose and
throat with a good antiseptic spray
two OR three times day.
But above all, don't think the meas
les are something which do not amount
| to much.
1t is better to err by giving the child
| too much care than to have weak eyes,
lungs or ears to handicap him in the
race.

Chairman Child Hygiene Committee,
