OF years old the sun cannot be burn

some more persistent way. The Ger
man physicist Helmholtz was the
first to explain satisfactorily what
keeps the sun hot. The sun is not
burning; it is heated TO the glowing
point like piece OF white hot iron.
Hclmholtz found that If we suppose

to be made absolutely tuberculosis

ISOLATION for the Study and Prevention

ing the selection of city where it
can demonstrate the successful exter-
mination of consumption, the Great
White Plague. After deliberations it
has selected birmingham, Mass, out
OF several hundred towns considered.
About a1OO, 900 will be expended. In
addition to this, the city has agreed to
improve the health work. As part
of q plan, It'll proposed to place under
definite control every case of tuber-
culosis. birmingham will be able TO
boost and boast. The Louisiana Anti
tuberculosis Campaign is endeavoring
to stamp out consumption and rele-
gate the disease to the same oblivion
which now envelopes yellow fever,

comfortable diseases.

The presence of several cases of
scarlet fever in st. Joseph this week
alarmed our people SO much that the
attention of the Parish Health Of
ficer, Dr. d. II. Alverson, of Newell
ton, was called, and he concluded to
call O meeting of the citizens, the
school authorities and the Board OF
Health OF st. Joseph, to discuss the
question and to advise as to such
steps as may be deemed necessary TO
stamp out the disease and prevent
further contagion. After going into
the matter thoroughly it was decided
to close the public school at st Joseph
and also to forbid the school children
to attend the picture show, the circus
and all similar public gatherings. The
Sunday school at st. Joseph was also
ordered closed and the approaching
Christmas tree was ordered dispensed
with. The closing of the public school
until January 1st will cause the school
to continue two weeks longer in the
summer than is the usual period OF
closing, which may cause some incon-
veni-nce to teachers anticipating at
tending summer schools, but all was
done In the interest of the health OF
the community. The children who
have been i'll with what was consid-
cred scarlet fever are: James Johns
ton, Clair, Winans and Harrison
Drake and Edward Buelow. We are
glad to know that all are up again and
had very mild attacks. The steps TAX
en- by the health authorities to Grad
icate the fever, while perhaps some-
what drastic and NAV cause some In
convenience and perhaps some disap'
pointment, were deemed best for the
public good and may cause to be d.
verted from our town and commun'
ity what might possibly have been IN
epidemic of scarlet fever with all the
worry incident thereto and possible
unhappy consequences, and certainly
an ounce of prevention 10 worth
