DIR. Simon Flexner's warning that a
greater outbreak of infantile paralysis
may be expected during the year 1917
than ever before should put the various
state boards of health on their guard at
once. The Vermont state board has had
so much experience with the disease that
it, perhaps, will not need the extra warn
ing given by DIR. Flexner. The people OF
Vermont also are more watchtul against
this disease in warm weather than
against any other.

% totally insensate about such mat.
ters. although they must admit we
have some very fine art collectors. At
least, certain lnartistic Americans
have managed to obtain very cordial

pears. is not so ethereal as to perish
In contact with the blighting touch OF
our coarse American money. We may
not have the artistic temperament, but
we have what seems to cherish and
comfort it IN those who claim to have
1t. Turning from our illustrious perl
patetic connoisseurs, we have a few
stay-at-homes not so mean in their
way. They display their skill chiefly
at the auction sales, the novelty In
which just at present is to see how
speedily they may be held. The rec

worth of art was sold. Single speci-
mems went for as much as $4,000.

In the old days the habit Of skip
ping when reading a book was held to
be sign of a slothful mind. Much
could be said in defense Of that view
even today, but as time goes by and
the output of books and periodicals
continues steadily to increase, the
mere knowledge of how to read will
be of little use unless it Is accompa.
MED by thorough knowledge Of how
to skip. When every child is taught
reading, writing, arithmetic and skip
ping, may it not improve the quality
Of the literary production? Should
every author realize that his readers
have been educated to skip, he would
be all the more carful to make them
forget that part of their education by
writing pages that could not lightly be
passed over.

SUPPosING this should happen in
Ely. Wouldn't there be tears
shed and profanity cut loose? The
business men of St. James dubbed
together and made up lists of their
deadbeat accounts, which they ad-
vertised for sale in page ads in the
newspapers Of that place, giving
the names of the debtors and the
amounts owing. AS the same
names appeared in several lists,
some people of that community
have had experience with advertis-
ing that does not pay them, how.
ever satisfactory the results may
have been to the merchants who
placed the ads.
