the order just ~ they would Quaran-
tine, people for small pox or any other
contaSiou disease. All doctors know
ing Of such cases will be expected to
report them to the authorities. The
patients will then be confined in hos
pitfalls and treated until cured. Under
the state law the state board Of health
has full authority to make such regula-
ton and the local boards of health to
enforce It. The mayor and council OF
each town or city, or the trustees OF
township, constitute the local board OF
health. The local board employs the
city physician or health officer who
looks after the city cases and ON these
officers will develop much Of the work
Of the enforcement Of this law.
The enforcement Of such a regula-
ton in Dess Moines came as the result
OF visit Of DR.. Campbell. Of Ohio,
formerly secretary Of the Ohio State
Board Of Health. He Is now employed
by the government to look after the
health Of the. soldiers in American
camps.
He called conference of state and
city authorities to consider the prob
lem as it relates to Camp Dodge. AS
result of this conference state and local
authorities are now cooperating In
enforcing this internment OF persons
so diseased.
Local physicians are required to re-
port such cases to the authorities.
Whenever men or women are arrested
for immortality, it lis incumbent thai
they be examined for these diseases. II
these diseases are discovered they are
rinterned in hospitals until cured.
In one of the states where cam.
paign against social diseases is being
at1ade placards are posted In pubic
uhaccs emphasizing the seriousness OF
such troubles and stating where pam
phlets may be had with reference 10
the disease Among the points brought
out in these placards are the follow
ing. Social diseases cause much OF the
blindness in children; permanent IN
yalidism of wives; childless marriages,
are the cause OF a large proportion Oh
surgical operations on women; orlhs
on Ill health and loss OF time anu
money to men infected.
DR.. G, H. Summer, secretary OF the
state board Of health, has been giving
considerable study to the public con-
troll of this disease. He suggests tnat
the affected persons so interned 90
treated by physicians until cured under
some plan worked out by the county
medical societies so that all physicians
will help, tie county furnishing the
medicines and possibly paying some
thing to the county medical society, not
the individual doctor or county phy-
stefan. for the service. The money
thus received BY the county medical
societies could be turned over 10 me

Washington, Dec. 20.-Iowa, which at
first seemed to be the state lsast dis
posed to take advantage Of the federal
farm loan act, now promises to become
whole farm loan system.
A report just made to the federal
farm loan board, by the federal land
bank of Omaha, sayStha loan appli-
cations are coming from Iowa at the
rate of $1.000,0O0 a week. The applica-
tons from chartered farm loan asso-
Citations now exceed $2,670,O00 and more
than 100000 Of additional applica-
tons are pending.
The report says that almost every
county in Iowa now has one or more
national farm loan associations COM
pletely organized or in process Of or
ganization.
The federal land bank at Omaha
associations, or obtain applications for
farm loans, in Iowa during the spring
and summer. About the middle of Sep
TENDER d campaign was started, mainly
through local banks, which has met
withvery great success. Arrangements
were made whereby a membership fee
of ne-half of, one per cent of the loan
should be paid by the applicant for a
loan, and the local associations auth
orized to pay such membership fee to
the secretary treasurer as compensa-
ton and for the facilities furnished by
his bank for the transaction of BUSH

Suffering Of Farm Loan Rates
According to the government statis-
tics there are nearly one-half billion
dollars worth of farm mortgages in
Iowa. Iowa exceeds, in farm mortgage
volume any other state by a large mar
gin, because Of the great value of the
land used as security. But Iowa, on
account of it's high-priced land, has
enjoyed very low interest rate. Since
the war, there has been a general stiff
fleming Of interest rates with the result
that Iowa farmers are looking more
and more to the federal farm loan
system for financial aid. Under the
farm loan system loans are now made
at 5h per cent, the rate having re-
Gently been raised from 5 per cent.
These mortgages are made on the
amortization or installment plan, run
ming for thirty-five years. with a dxed
semi annual payment just large
enough to discharge the entire indebt-
edness in the thirty-fve year period.
The borrower has the privilege of pre-
payment at any time after. the debt has

Peace to Men
of Good viii
By CHARLES r. T74WINC

The angels song, "On Earth Peace,
Good VIII Toward Men," can also be
translated 'peace to men of good
WILL" This version is timely, as well
as correct for the Greek. For peace
can and shall come to men Of good
will, and it cannot come to men of
bad will.
Who is the man Of good will? 1t
is he who has q choice of happiness,
Of righteousness, of goodness for all
men. 1t is he who desires that men
may be blessed, and who tries to
make the desire effective. The man
Of good will does not hate. Neither
does he incarnate hate in any weapon
offensive or defensive. He is free from
revenge, and Is full Of forgiveness
for the penitent. He may not forget
injuries, but, what is more important,
he is eager to make injury the occa-
sion for helping the offender to over
come the evil within the heart or
will out Of which the injury sprung.
He is capable Of mighty indignations,
but he does not suffer himself to be
conquered by them. Without being
impassive, he Is calm in the face OF
wrong, and he is very patient, be-
ing more willing to be the victim than
the agent of evil. His hatred Of all
sin and his love for the man who,
despite his manhood, is guilty Of sin.
are alike strong and lasting. He is
free from suspicion, he thinketh no
evil. He loves his neighbor not only
as himself, but even more, being more
eager to do justice than to receive
justice.
The qualities and elements which
constitute the man Of good will also
constitute the commonwealth Of good
will.
Such a commonwealth Is common
wealth peace. Willing good to 9TH
ers, others will good also to it. Arm
aments in such condition have no long
er any function to play, and they melt
away. The battleflags are furled.
Wars cease and rumors of wars are
not heard. Men become brothers in
mutual service and happiness. as they
are brothers in origin and destiny.
