WOODEN FENCES ARE

So Says Baltimore Health Commission

Baltimore.-Get rid of the wooden
fences and you will get rid of rats,
flies and mosquitoes. SO says DR.. John
D. Blake, health commissioner Of this
city Dr. Blake believes that much dis
ease and sickness is brought about by
the wooden fence.
The wooden fence prevents the prop
er circulation of air." the commissioner
said. Persons living in houses sur
rounded by high wooden fences do not
get the real benefits of pure, fresh air.
This is detrimental to the health.
Rats, flies and mosquitoes carry
germs and spread disease. To do away
with disease we must eXterminate
these The dilapidated wooden fence
attracts bugs of all descriptions. Rats
gnaw at the wood and dig holes under
and around it. These holes become
filled with water and in time are breed
ing places for flies aud mosquitoes.
The fact that the wooden fence
hides all this dirt and filth is power
full argument why it should be done
away with. What woman would al

Of the girls going to our schools don't
know how to cook an egg and can't
tell the difference between cooked
dough and raw dough. They don't
know how to make a batch of bread,
and, while they may be strong on null
tipIication, they are weak on the addl-

ut is for this reason that vocational
schools are springing up everywhere.
People realize that education is to fit
a girl for her duties, and as at least
half of our girls marry the problem
of making them ready for wifehood
is the best problem that faces US to-

failed to provide for this, and the edu-
