SIDEWALKS AND COLD GERMS
Relationship Between the Two Traced
to Conditions Which Result in
Getting Feet Wet.

That close relationship exists be-
tween sidewalks and grip epidemics
is asserted in Good Health by Martin
Nevins. Grip and colds, says Mr.. New
ms, are germ diseases. Germs are
floating about Us in the air. We breathe
them in by the thousands. 'But they
are cowardly felloWs-once they get
inside Of u healthy body they retreat"
He goes on:
''It is only when one thing or another
disturbs our health equilibrium that
the bugs manage to gain a foothold in
our system. 1t may be injudfciOus eat
ing, it may be lack of fresh air, but
most frequently it is some kind &C ex-
posture getting the feet Wet-that lays
the fortress open to them.
cit is not at all hard to get your feet
wet. And that is where the sidewalk
comes in. The ordinary sidewalk is a
right-hand assistant when you want a
cold foot bath. 1t is built fiat, without
any slope to drain it.
The condition is aggravated if there
occurs natural depression in the side
walk. The water runs into it and
stands until it is dried or is frozen.
The natural result is a harvest of grip
epidemics, and any number of colds,
bronchitis and lung troubles. And
tuberculosis, too-this disease can
often be traced to sidewalks, since it
usually starts with some simple lung
affection.
eve must stop building fiat side
walks and make them convex instead,
so they will drain easily, and elevate
them slightly above the level Of the
ground"

Measure Already Passed by House Re-

Washington, Sept. l2.-With the war

terday began consideration of the trad.
ing with the enemy bill, already passed
by the House.
Among the principal provisions writ
ten into the bill by the Senate commerce
committee were those which would per.
NIT the abrogation of contracts made
prior to Americas entrance into the war
and the insurance section, which would
permit enemy. controlled fire insurance
to remain in operation under
certain restrictions, one of which would
prohibit the sending of funds out of this
country by them.
Because of differences between the see.
retaries of the treasury and commerce
regarding the extent of powers conferred
on them by the bill, the committee
amended it so that full administrative
authority is placed in the president.

AMUSEMENT NOTES
Nothing But the Truth" Had Successful
Run in New York

Next Tuesday, Sept. IS, we will have
at the oprea house this last word in
farces, fresh from long and successful
run in New York City, where it is said
to have bulled the laughter market and
paid the amusement seeker the largest
dividends in mirth ever known. 1t is
based upon the unique idea of offering
the hero of the story, as litter of
nothing but the truth. Falsehood often
gets a man into serious difficulty, but in
this case, James Montgomery has rather
reversed the idea, for he bitches his hero
to the chariot of truth, and by so doing
involves not only that hero, but also his
friends and business associates in maze
of complications that upsets business af
fairs and snarls up domestic relstions.
But all this is done in a most amusing
way, for, do not be misled--there is not
a serious moment in the two hours and
a half given over to showing the result
ant effects Of combining oneself to Moth
ing But the Truth" This farce will be
seen here for the first time as above
noted. And ii comes fresh from whole
years stay at the Longacre theatre in
New York. Certainly this should COM
mend it to our local theatre patrons for
blase New Workers do not require twelve
months in which to size up the qualities
Of a play, and this one not only with
stood that length of test but came out
IF it with assurance to Anderson & Web
sr, who exploit it, that they had given
he stage a real enjoyable, sure enough
iarcial play that could be said to have
attained that always sought after stat
is on the successfully.
