of fun. The seer then told Miss Barr
to avoid all trips or voyages upon the
water stating that eventually she
would take such a "trip and she would

These predictions were regarded
lightly by the girls, and were recalled
by Miss Barr's companion when the
body was recovered,

AGE LIMIT REDUCED
N STATE QUARANTINE
Made Applicable Only to Children OF
Twelve Years and
Under.
ON INCREASE IN MARYLAND
Many New Cases In BaltimOre-Due
to Efficient Quarantine In Virginia
But Fifty-two Cases Were Reported
In September.

After a conference with DR.. w NJ.
Smith. OF Alexandria, president OF the
State Board of Health, DR.. Ennion G.
williams, State health officer yester-
day announced that the Virginia quar-
antine against infantile paralysis
would be applicable only to children
under twelve wears Of age after lz:ol
A. M. tomorrow morning. This de-
cision was reached after a carefui
analysis of complete returns of the
cases Of paralysis in the State, which
showed that ninety-seven per cent OF
the cases were children under twelve
years
Virginia put into effect quarantine
regulations against poliomyelitis on
August rs. which provided that no
children under sixteen years of age
from New York, New Jersey or Phila-
delphia would be permitted to enter
the State. Children under that age,
however, who were residents OF VIZ
ginia, and were returning home. were
allowed to enter. with the provision
that they should be quarantned In
their homes for three weeks.
According 10 the report OF the
State Health Department. forty-nine
per cent of all the cases OF infantile
paralysis in the state since July ef-
fected children three years old and
under, while ninety-seven per cent
were below sixteen It was deemed
unnecessary to maintain the sixteen
year limit, and for the benefit OF the
people the age was reduced. 1t was
pointed out by DIR. Williams that the
parents of a great many children
would be DESTROYS of placing them in
Virginia schools and colleges, and the
new age limit will permit their en-
trance into the State.
DR.. williams was very much en-
couraged by the complete report on
the infantile paralysis condition in
Virginia. Due to the effective quar-
antine established, the State has had
less of the disease than any other on
the Atlantic seaboard. Fifty-two cases
were reported during September OF
this wear against fifteen for the same
month in 1918.
DR.. Rupert Blue surgeon-general OF
the United States. advised DR.. Will
liams. that while poliomyelitis was
decreasing in New York. New Jersey
and Pennsylvania, it was increasing
in Maryland, Baltimore alone showing
a great number of cases. In Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut the disease
is also on the increase. and DIR. VIII
liams stated yesterday that if there
continued to be an increase in those
States 1t would be necessary to de-
clare the quarantine applicable tc
them. Maryland in particular would
present a menacing condition, and the
greatest vigilance would be necessary
to guard the northern border Of the
State
