MAKE ROCKFORD THE
PUREST OF CITIES
Or. ST. CLAIR DRAKE TO OVER
SEE CLEANSING OF TERRITORY
NEAR ILLINOIS ONLY CANTON
MENT CAMP.

Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. Moral sur
gerry is to be arranged for at Rockford
by DR.. st. Clair Drake, of the State
Board of Health in a campaign to
make that city the cleanest, both from
a medical and a moral viewpoint in
Illinois, while the drafted soldiers OF
the state are held at the cantonment
camp there. DR.. Drake will arrive in
Rockford tonight. He was preparing
this morning to get out of Springfield
and to spend several days in Rock
ford organizing the department of the
State Health Board which will be To-
Gated in Rockford while the soldiers
are there.
Dr. Drake and his assistants in the
Rockford branch of the health board
will work in cooperation with army
medical men Their part will be in
general to see that the city and FIVE
mile zone about the camp are yer
table 'spotless town. Sanitation in
the actual camp itself will be left to
the military medical authorities
Communicable diseases will be the
first thing to engage the attention of
DIR. Drake He will make a survey of
all dsorderly houses and order all in
mates to appear before him. Every
case of communicable disease will be
ferreted out and many women OF the
underworld will be asked to leave.
Failing to do So the house in which
she lives will be placarded Having
taken over the supervision of the
houses he will establish force which
will continue the work as long as any
soldiers of the United States army re-
main in Rockford.
Another step will be the establish
ment OF a tuberculosis observation
and inspection hospital at which
close watch will be kept for tubercu-
lar soldiers and civilians who might
endanger the health of the soldiers.
An equally close watch for cases of
infectious diseases such as small pox.
typhoid or measles,
Within five mile zone around the
cantOnment camp the state will take
over the disposal of sewage and gar
bage and see that 1t Is destroyed in a
sanitary manner.
by hard work and the employment
Of large staff of disease prevention
experts think we can make the lii
nois cantonment camp an example in
healthfulness for all the similar camps
in America" Or. Drake said. "The
climate OF northern Illinois is excel
lent The camp itself will be kept in
the best of sanitary condition by
skilled army physicians. If we can
do the same thing in Rockford and in
a zone around the camp. there should
be percentage of sickness among the
soldiers much smaller than in ordi.
nary civil life
"A soldier may feel that he is Of
fering his life to his country, but II
is the duty of his country to see that
the life is kept intact until its loss will
be In actual attempt to gain the cause
for which II was offered"

EARLY CLOSING.

A committee of business men has been out for
the city with the idea of having them close their
stores on Saturday evening at o'clock. The
Spouse has been gratifying in practically every in
stance and the committee believes that the move
will be unanimous
This action is in accord with that of many cities
In the United States The trend of the times is
all toward shorter business hours and particularly
can this be observed in the larger cities Of the
country. A few years ago business men thought
1t absolutely necessary to keep stores open every
evening. This was changed to night q week
and much to the surprise of the pcssimists no loss
of business was recorded There probably a
few men who still insist that the closing of the
stores Saturday evening will hurt trade but cxpc-
rcnce in other cities proves differently and VIC
cannot sec where conditions here vary from those
in other towns where the did not result in
any falling off in the amount of business rans,sccd.
Many stores in the larger cities closing at
noon on Saturday in order that their employees may
have day and half in which to rest up for the
next weeks work. The mere fact that the lrac-
ficc continues there and that there rs much discus
sion of closing all day Saturday shows that the
business men regard the move good one. The
the volume of business transacted shows no effect
from the shorter hours and that the efficiency of
the employees is greatly increased.

west of Baupaume, the British

the Germans holding the town
against them, according to the
London official communication.
With Tuesdays capture of the viii
lage Of Grevillers and the Lou
part wood. the gain of the British
Wednesday in this region SEEM
ingly puts them virtually at the

THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH IS, 1917.
THE ALGONQUIN.

When and by what action will the United States
be shaken from its slippery footing the ledge of
armed neutrality and go tumbling down into the
chasm of war? when the bulletin was received
that the Germans had sunk the Algonquin prac-
tically everyone looked for a flash that had
been declared but it that the situation is
different than 1t was before and that the armed
neutrality" state still exists.
It is hard for the laty. IMMERSED in the twstings
and turnings of international law and the interprc
taton placed it by the administration, to figure
out just what sort Of covert" act is needed to
precipitate open hostilities. But it that at
last know what is necessary. If one of
armed merchantmen engages in battle with
submarine and either sinks the attacker is
sunk, then the hostile act will have been com
mitted
The Algonquin loaded with wheat, which is
held to be contraband, but so will be the ships
carrying arms and figuring out the difference be-
tween the sinking of a ship carrying contraband
and no arms and one carrying contraband and arms
is drawing the distinction very fine.

EDUCATION AND CRIME.
(New York pOSt.)


Governor Eardaman's startling fact" that
negroes who read and write more criminal
than the illitcrates is examined by Judge Gilbert
r. Stephenson of Winston- Salem, n. c.. in The
South Atlantic quarterly. His method Is that OF
instances rather than comprehensive survey. but
his figures are convincing. The president OF At
lanta university says that, although the university
follows the record OF it's graduates with great
not single one, far the authorities know. has
over been arrested for crime. Fisk university
ports one graduate convicted and another dropped
from the list for immoral conduct. Shaw univcr
sity has almost good record. If such dan
instincts in their students, there be nothing
surprising in the failure of the industrial colleges
to do Not of the 800 students OF the agri-
cultural and technical college at Greensboro N c..
1000 who have been matriculated, two of the five
| being expelled students. Less than half dozen
! of the graduates Of Hampton have been imprisoned
| for crime. and the same holds true for Tuskegce.
half of the negro convcts in the Mississippi pcni
tertiary had SO much education and half lacked it.
In the Atlanta county Jail. however. IS OF the 100
negroes could read and write. This looks damag-
ing. but only so had finished the first grade in
school and none had gone through the eighth grade,
it would seem that If little education is bad, lit
tie is excellent.
