tended for mutual improvement, and
no doctor, actively engaged in the
practice of medicine, can afford to
hold himself aloof from his fellows,
and while this Society needs the in
fiuence of every reputable physician,
the onus is with the individual, as he
needs the influence of the Society
more than the Society needs his in
fluence. Think of the possibilities for
good of united professional! The
scientific, moral and political force of
such a union would be of incacuable
benefit to the community.
The next meeting of the Society
will be held sometime during the
month Of May in Mayslck as the
guests of DR.. II. M. Davis of that place
who very kindly invited the Society to
meet with him. Due notice of the
time will be given you by the Secre-
tary. Some very excellent papers are
in course of preparation, and there
will be papers read by visiting physi-
clans from other parts of the State,
and those physicians who do not at
tend this meeting will miss very
rare treat.

dominated American policy for more
than century. German violence has
been stronger than this will, and a
new ally joins us, Despite the Mon
roe Doctrine, despite immigration
and despite all sorts of ties binding
to nations, the aggressive policies of
the Hohenzolerns have forced war
on people which was firmly decided
to remain neutral"
What will Edison do?" What UNI

being asked by the French people in
view of the prospect of the United

be regretted that every physician in
the county could not have been with
us and heard these two interesting
and instructive papers.
A resolution was offered to the eff
feet that this Society go on record as
being heartily in favor of the SAM
tary Survey now being agitated in
this county as will be seen from the
following:
RESOLVED: That this Society
heartily endorse the Sanitary Survey,
and record be made by the Secre-
tary in the minutes, and that every
member of this Society use his utmost
efforts to further the movement"
This Society should be in a posi-
ton today to become the dominant
factor In the municipal management
of affairs pertaining to the welfare of
our citizens. AS a medical body, or
ganized with the view of protecting
the health and the happiness of our
people, we should stand as men with
the courage of an honest conviction,
voting for and promulgating prin-
ciples over mere pride. 1t is to be
hoped that every physician in Mason
county will ally himself with this So
ciety and attend the meetings and
thus bring about a united effort to do
their duty pertaining to all the sani-
tary problems which constantly arise
in our complex system of living.

A PLEA FOR THE PLAYGROUND


We are not disturbed by the fear of
our boys and girls becoming dull
from "all work and no play" but we
should be disturbed about where and
what they are going to play.
Our experience teaches us that if
Jack is a normal, healthy boy; he is
going to play. He should play. Play
is not only youths birthright; but it
it has an educative value that moth
ing else can supply
If Jack is going to play and if it is
right that he should, the responsible
ity devolves on the older members of
community of seeing that he is
given suitable place to play.
If he is curbed in every natural i'm
pulse for wholesome play, he will not
only from habits of unwholesome
play; but he will form the habit of
feeling that part of the play" is do
ing that of which his elders disap-
prove. If a child has the sanction and
sympathy, in his play, of those who
should advise him; he is going to be
the more easily and successfully
guided by them, in his work.
One of the helpful periods in a
school days regime is a ten minutes
recess, spent in happy, romping play.
1t brings health-the result Of the ex-
ercise. fresh air, Joy; and health
pleasure In work, and increased abil-
ity to do work.
We, in Maysville, have given our
children a school building of which
we are all Justly proud; but one i'm
portant essential is lacking-the play
ground.
The small plots of ground around
the High School building are too
small for play, so they are wisely
used for ornamentation. The walks
and dusty streets are the play
grounds. Few are the games that
can be played there, and many are the
restrictions concerning those games
1t Is almost a case of: eyes, my child
you may 60 swimming, but don't go
near the water"
The Parent-Teacher Association of
the High School building is endeav-
oring to supply this want. Buy a
ticket to the operetta, which,is being
so ably directed by Miss Jones, to be
presented Friday, April 10; and help
to give the boys and girls a much
need place to play.

MASON COUNTY MEDICAL
SOCIETY

The first meeting of the Mason
County Medical Society for the year
1917 was held last Friday evening at
the st. Charles Hotel. Quite a num-
Der Of the physicians of the county
and city were present, and, judging
from the interest and enthusiasm
manifested, there can be no doubt that
future meetings of the Society will
prove to be very interesting and in
structive. A very delightful banquet
had been prepared by the proprietors
Of the Hotel, to which ample justice
was done by those fortunate enough
to have been present.
After the banquet the Society was
favored by a very excellent paper
read by s. A. Laughlinfi Nj. D., of
Aberdeen, Ohio, on the Thyroid
Gland" The discussions entered in
to by the physicians showed very
great thought upon the subject, and
altogether 1t was a very instructive
paper and the discussions which fol-
lowed it equally so.
After this, DR.. Durham, who is at
the head OF the Branch Hospital for
the treatment of tuberculosis in Gin
cinnati, gave very exhaustive talk
upon that subject and at the same
time gave demonstration of the ap-
paratus in use at the hospital for
Pneumo-thoraX. DR.. Durham is
very pleasant and forceful speaker,
and it was indeed a pleasure to the
Society to be able to bring such men
as this before the profession for the
benefit of the local Society. 1t is to

Denver-Firebugs, believed to be
inspired by pro-German sympathy,
have begun campaign of crop des-
truction in Adams county, successful
ly destroying by fire within the past
week $4,000 worth of wheat and
beans. The third attempt was made
Dec. 6 on the Boiler brothers ranch,

in the successful firing of stack oil

watchman guarding a powder storage
warehouse driven them off.
Two men were seen crawling toward
the stack at dusk by the watchman,
who in turn was observed by the fire
bugs. Realizing that they were being
watched, they ran through the field.
The watchman fired two shots without
effect.
