PLAGUE TAKES
JUMP IN PHILA.
Eight Cases Since Midnight;
DR.. Dixon Bars Shipment
of Bodies
v'M RUFUS McCoRD. Mgr.

Philadelphia. Aug. 10. = ~Infantile
paralysis made a new record for ia
~talities in Philadelphia when reports
to the health bureau showed eight
deaths and three new cases from mid
night to noon to-day.
DR.. samuel G. Dixon to-day placed
a ban on the shipment of bodies of
~infantile paralysis victims through or
into Pennsylvania from other States.
In a statement DIR. Dixon disagrees
with the prediction made at the con-
ference of State health authorities in
Washington yesterday that ~infantile
paralysis Will be prevalent next year,
saying that no man can predict such a
thing. He cited the experience of
Pennsylvania which in 1910 had more
than 1000 cases and comparatively few
since then until this year. So far the
State has only crossed the 500 mark.
Experience says Dr.. Dixon. has proved
that an epidemic of the disease reaches
its height in August and it may there
fore be expected to diminish from this
time forward.

Plague Conference One Man
Affair Dr.. Dixon Declares

Philadelphia. Aug. 10. - DR.. Samuel
G. Dixon, Pennsylvania State Health
Commissioner, was much surprised
to find when he arrived in Washington
that the conference of State health au-
thorities, called by Secretary McAdoo
to discuss infantile paralysis, was run
not by the surgeon general of the Unit
ed States. but by DR.. Haven Emerson,
Health Commissioner of New York.
DR.. Dixon attended the conference on
Thursday, its opening day, but left that
evening for Philadelphia, "as every
thing had been left in the hands of the
committee"
The committee was the one on ways
to suppress the disease. According to
news dispatches this committee y~ester-
a made a pronouncement against
~quarantines by n State or community
against another in the fight against m
fantile paralysis. DR.. Dixon said this
pronouncement emanated from the
New York City health authorities.
when 1 went to Washington, I
thought I had beer called there at the
instance of the rye general of the
United States" said DIR. Dixon. But
when we entered the room the Health
Commissioner of New York City was
at the door and shook hands with us
DR.. Dixon defended the quarantine,
as applied under his direction on Au-
gust 9 against children under 16 years
of age, who had been exposed to infan-
tile paralysis, from entering this State.
New York and New Jersey are hot
beds of the disease" he said. "Pennsyl-
vania must protect herself, or nobody
will protect her.

BOUQUETS
FOR MERCHANTS
Electrical Magazine Tells of
Harrisburg's Business
Streets in Issue


Unusual tribute to the progressive
spirit of Harrisburg's merchants is
paid by the Signs of the Times, an
electrical advertising magazine, in its
current issue in an article headed
Americas Brightest and Busiest
Streets"
"As a mar is judged by the COM
judged by its merchants and its mer-
chants by the advertising they do"
says the magazine land there are
none hat better realize this than the
merchants of Harrisburg, Pa. So the
need for an educational campaign to
be waged to compel them to toe the
mark of progress is eliminated. They
need no prodding to keep up with
the vanguard. The progressive mer-
chant does not or cannot consider his
business successfully advertised until
he has an electric sign flashing his
message by night, when people are in
a more receptive mood and have the
leisure to allow a consideration of the
thoughts thai are delivered to their
minds.
Several of the streets of Harris
burg are lighted by the boulevard
system of illumination, show windows
are we'll taken care of, and practi-
cally all the leading merchants have
electric signs in front of their re-
spective places of business. The en-
tire business section has a CHEEKY at
mosphere at night which is the much
s~ought-for condition. The Harrisburg
Light and Power Company has been
very active In promoting better and
more abundant illumination in the
business section with noticeable re-
suits. The Harrisburg signs are OF
credit to the lighting that
sold them, to the merchants and to
the city,"

But mark the sequel.

convinced that her lover had been cheat

shoes at that price. She decided to 60
and change the shoes and obtain a better

Next day she appeared in the shop and
