final examination, may yet be a U. S.

The South Bend lad was rejected
by medical officers at Columbus,
when, after ordering him to run
around the examination room in his
bare feet, the officer in charge asked
him if his feet hurt him, Funston
replied that they did.

EAST SIDE COULD
USE D|SPENSARY
Will be Necessary This Sum-
mer Says Secretary of
Social Federation.

Another Children's dis3ensary Is
needed.
The need for this dispensary Is
especially urgent on the east side.
according TO the monthly report OF
the dispensary on the west side. is
sued Friday morning by the FEEDER
alton for Social Service. Sec'y Mark
Duncan, Of the federation, stated
that the need Of a bureau on the
east side for the benefit of ailing
children has been felt for some time
and a recent investigation found
that the need has grown.
IL is especially during the hot
summer months that one will be
necessary said Sec'y Duncan. Owing
to the increased danger of the many
summer ailments of babies and the
inability OF many of the poorer
families to obtain proper medical
care and above all pure milk, 1t
was stated that a dispensary on
lines as the one on Division st.
would be highly appreciated. Sec'y
Duncan is of the belief that before
the summer months come one will
be established.
According TO the report of Miss
Agnes Moran, in charge of the dis
pensary on the west side there are
at present 1872 cases enrolled, II new
ones being added during February.
A noticeable feature of the report
on children's ailments is the non
appearance of scarlet fever patients
despite the epidemic that has been
gripping the city. The predominant
ing ailment is bronchitis.
During the month Miss Moran
made 1876 calls. Since Nov. l the
dispensary has distributed 3,49O12
quarts Of pasteurized milk, 1,61S
haev been given gratuitously for the
babies. There were 1,09312 quarts
sold at 10 cents a quart, while 77e
were sold at prices according TO the
finances of mothers.

BOTH BIRTH AND DEATH
RATES SHOW INCREASES
Fifteen Children Less Than One
Year Old Died i'm City
During February.

During February the death rate OF
this city has increased Is per cent
over the rate established in January,
and though the birth rate, too. has
advanced. still the advance chaiked
up is much less, amounting 10 less
than three per cent
Compared with the 81 deaths re-
ported by the health Office Of the
city there have been 142 births.
while in January the ratio was 90
deaths and 152 births. In making
any comparison some allowance
must be made for the fact that Feb
ruary had three less days than did
the month preceding. Figuring on a
basis of 81 days. February should
have 157 births and los deaths
Children under one year old num-
boring Is. died of various causes
last month. (This does MT include
the still births.) Six died of scarlet
fever while only three succumbed
during January. In accidental deaths
the ratio was reversed. Seven per-
sons died of tuberculosis and nine of
pneumonia, while but a single death
in each month is attribute bic to
smallpox.
