/~ ABLY HEALTH WEEK. was great
80 success in Omaha last week. Busy
~ physicians gave amply of their time
and advice coming before the pub
lie in lectures and health talks
they rarely do before laymen; health officers and
health organizations oo-operated beautifully in
putting the health exhibit, and all the club
women worked together magnificently in making
their greatest single venture success
TO Mrs. X. r. J. Edholm Nebraska agent for
the federal childrCns bureau and chairman of the
health committee of the Nebraska Federation OF
Womens Clubs belongs especial credit for the
success of the exhibit.

week. Mrs. w G. IRE was elected to the presi-
dency of the Fine Arts society, succeeding Mrs.

Raymond Wyer, Alfred Noyes, John Cowper

brought to Omaha-surely an imposing list OF
speakers.
: Mrs j. w. Robbins is the new president of the
Social Settlement and replaces Mrs. Philip Potter,
Mrs. Robbins succeeds to the presidency from the
office of secretary in which capacity she served
most efficiently the last year A successful year at

the date set but rehearsals are already under way,
which, with Mrs. Adams supervision, nsures a
finished presentation OF the comedy. Mrs Adams
does not favor women taking mems parts in pub

amusement at the Womans club last Monday.
Il do not oppose it for any foolish reason. but
because l do not consider it artistic. When men
take women's parts. expect IT to be funny, and
it is aughable, but when women dress for mems
parts it is apt to verge on the ridiculous"

PASTEURIZED MILK
Say It Is Efficient Method
 of Killing Germs

OI AllUnes terms
 That any of the approved methods of pasteurizing market milk is eff clent from the viewpoint of freezing the milk from diseased germs is gen. erally acknowledged. Bacteriologica] analysis shows that the germ killing
 efficiency of pasteurization properly executed averages 99.9 or over. One objection that is raised is the heating destroys the tactic acid bac- teria which in reality are beneficial and that the putrafactive bacteria are left intact which when releived from restraining action of the acid bac- teria, develop and form products in- furious to health, such putrafa ctive bacteria products and possibly pOisons. MT. Rogers of the U. s. Dairy division has done some very extensive work along this line covering a period of seven years and has found that while this may have been true in the earlier days of pasteurization when very high temperatures were used, milk pasteur- ized at lower temperatures (145
 Fah. O with the holding process as now almost universally practised in
 market milk plants sOurs normally and in similar manner as raw milk. This shows that enough of the lactia acid bacteria survive to remove this objec- tiOn.
 It has been urged further that pas teurization does not destroy poisonous products already found in milk be- fore pasteurization. While this is per
 fectly true, it is equally true that pas- teurized milk is no worse than raw
 milk in this respect, inasmuch as these products are obviously also present in the raw milk.
 It has been claimed by some that pasteurized milk is less digestable
New Britain herald., 1916-06-23

than raw milk that the soluble albu- men becomes insoluble, part of the ash
 and especially the valuable lime salts , IS precipitated and the caSin is altered
 in it's physical makeup. These changes ! dO occur in part at least, in milk heat
 ed to temperatures near the boiling point. But the fact that they do take place does by no means prove that be- cause of these changes the milk is ! less digestible. Comparative experi- ments conducted by nutrition experts ln this country and abroad with babies Tn hOspNalS and also with calves, dogs, cat, rabbits, rats and other animals do not uphold these ssumptiOns In fact ! the bulk of the now available evidence on this subject points in favor of the d1gestlbility of pasteurized milk Even : the precipitation of the lime salts by heat does not seem to render the min eral matter of the milk less digestible the lime in the heated milk being util- lzed, digested and assimilated quite as
 well as the lime of normal raw milk
 The important prOteid compound of
 milk such as the amino acids which
 are so essential for the growing child
 and the presence of which in milk
 places milk above all other food at
 equal cost with reference to it's abili-
 ty to stimulate growth, both of the
 bony and muscular structure are not
 affected by heat, they remain entirely
 normal and unchanged. I say even if
 these changes of the physical and
 chemical properties of the milk con-
 stituents do occur, it does not neces-
 sarily follow that the milk so changed
 is less digestable than raw milk. But
 these changes are possible only when
 pasteurizing at temperature near the
 boiling point and they do not occur in
 milk pasteurized to 145 degrees F. and
 held at that temperature for twenty
 to thirty minutes. The pasteurization
 of milk, properly executed, does not impair the digestibility of market milk.
 and does not render such milk less suitable for infant feeding.-The Milk Dealer.

ATTACK WITHOUT REASON
Invocation for MeXiCanS Fir ] on United States Sailors

|hington. June 23.-Commander
 hugh of the gunboat Annapolis, Aport to the Navy department incident at Mazatlan Sunday, sa boat from the Annapolis was bn and two American officers said his men were attacked
 st proyocation by Mexican Gus
 officers and soldiers.
 text of the report follows:
 sernor issued manifesto that of were not to land, and guard aced on dock. I sent ashore Messing to barley with the ans and to ask them to send Acting Americal Consul or for the Mexican officials so as to
 se for American citizens con1- to the ship.
 hnt Paymaster MoWat with the
 Ias interpreter, no trouble be-
 |ieipated, as Mexicans have not ed earlier boats. I ordered eicer to keep clear of landing, 3 his boat could not be rushed forbade him entering the town, hn being that the boat was to ll clear of the dock and the of-

hidden and not to use them unless fired upon, in which case he was to return the fire. The boat was motor sailing launch, with crew of three men. Coxswain of boats reports that after brief barley Mowat, inter- preter, informed Messing that Mexi- can said it would be all right for them to land. They did so, and were immediately seized. Messing ordered boat to return to ship and to report what had happened. When MexicanS saw boat start off they motioned it to return. COxswain told them to wait a minute and kept heading for ship.
 When boat was about 100 feet clear from dock Mexican customs of fcial in uniform fired his revolver at the boat, bullet striking near it. Five or six shots were immediately fired at the boat by Mexican soldiers. Boatswain's Mate Laughter, who was senior in the boat, then ordered the fire to be returned, and this was done. Mexicans fled from the dock, and, taking cover behind wall and in dock warehouse, opened lively fire on tna boat. Mexicans firing in all about
 
 one in the arm and once through bowels. Coxswain Sheets had skin parked from his fingers, and boat was struck many times.
 Tn my opinion, boats crew acted properly in returning fire, as other wise they probably all would have been killed. When the crew began to fire Mexicans fled from the dock in a panic and this gave the boat a chance to get away. American Con- sul came off to the ship and reported that General Mezta claimed our peo- pie began the fight and that one man had been killed and two or three wounded. I gave him our version of the affair, and assured the general that full satisfaction would be given if the blame was ours, and also in that case would express regrets over the affairs.
 "I requested also that he release the two officers and send them and any American citizens who wished to come off to the Annapolis. The gen eraI allowed Messing and Wowat to return on board at D. m., Sunday, they having suffered no harm beyond threats and abuse from populace and soldiers. They were well treated by military officials.
 General Mezta sent a polite reply to my letter, saying that he released officers at my request, and also that the men who fired on the boat were Japanese now in the hospital wound ed. Mowat and Messing confirmed the coxswains report except that they did not know how the firing started. Laughter rallied and made statement. saying that Mexicans ordered the boat back to dock and coxswain tmme- diate1y started to obey, but Laughter took the tiller from him when the first shot was fired, striking him in the arm. After five or more shots had been fired, he gave orders to re- turn the fire

According to statements that

see that their prices are alto

would not be enough money in
