Dr.. J. S. B. Pratt has proposed the
plan to Maj. F. J. Green of the district
exemption board, who is heartily i'll
favor of it. Major Green wrote at
once to the board OF health accepting
the offer. The system under which
the two boards will work in Conjunc

Sir: ] am directed by DR.. J. S. 5.
Pratt, president Of the board of health,
to write you with reference TO the CO.
operation Of this board with the so.
lective draft boards Of this territory
In the states many of the state
boards of health are now assisting the
various selective draft boards and DR..
Pratt feels some such procedure would
be of mutual benefit here. ...
In Al,
cal examiners of each draft board
notify the health board OF all cases
of communicable diseases, such as
tuberculosis, trachoma, typhoid, Giph.
liberia, etc, that are discovered in the
men being examined and which would
incapacitate them from service.
Upon receiving notice of the eX
istenCe of such diseases the board Of
health undertakes the treatment and
elimination Of the disease and en-
beavers, so far as possible, to i'm
prove the health of those rejected so
as to render them available for ser
vice at future period.
While this procedure. il instituted
here, should be Of distinct value to the
organization, it would prove
also of material assistance to this de-
partment in the control of commune.
able diseases and the promotion oil
the public health.
by this arrangement diphtheria and
typhoid carriers could be put under
treatment and cleared up, thereby
the chance for the spread
of infection from that source and the
person, having recovered normal
health, would be again in position to
take UP such branch Of military ser
vice as he might be fitted to do.
: THE board of health has number
of records OF tuberculosis cases which
might be of assistance to the medical
examiners, and assistance could also
be rendered from our laboratories.
I'm event of your approval of this
plan, DR.. Pratt would be pleased to
take the matter up with you in de-

some tricks during the storm. It

We came through London or rather

we're in one Of the Oldest towns in
England yesterday. Nothing but
stone houses, even the roofs. The
people here are fifty years behind the
times in the small towns. The cars
are joke, side door affairs. The
engines are small but speedy. You
could put four Of these freight cars
in one of the u. s. cars. We are bill

back to the time Of Christopher Col

placed on boards raised off the floor.
We have six blankets so keep warm.
The climate here is cold and damp.
We do not get any coffee. every-
thing is tea here. Sugar is as scarce
as hens teeth, plenty Of meat though.
The women do all the work. Men
not in uniform are scarce. These
Tommies are jealous of US because
we get more grub and pay. Every
thing is very high. One can only

BELONGS PUBLICITY
SHOWED OLD SCENES

Bedding was given some excellent
publicity in the Michigan Tradesman
last week by the Grand Rapids Whole
sale Dealers association. In a large
double page spread advertisement in
the middle Of the Tradesman a large
picture Of Belongs Main street was
shown. Accompanying the illuctra-
ton was a nice description of the
natural advantages Of Bedding as a
livable city. Mention was made of
the leading industries and business
opportunities.
Only one thing married the COM
pleteness Of the publicity. The scene
shown was obsolete. 1t was taken
from a photograph of the street be-
fore it was paved. Hence the dirt
streets, the old telephone poles and
the old lighting system stand out as
striking membranes of what the
city looked like five years ago.

was conductor and "old Barney" was
the motive power, and also rememb-
cred well when freight car of logs
ran into the horse car standing on
the siding at the old station.
