FIVE FILTHY FINGERS

Did you ever make diary Of your
fingers? Did you ever set down i'm
cold black and white the things
your fingers touch every day and
did you ever consider the number of
times daily that your unwashed
fingers seek your mouth?
When surgeons discovered that it
was their own infected fingers which
carried germs into wounds they set
about trying to discover a means
whereby their hands could be rem
dered surgically clean, i. e., free
from germs. The whole realm Of
chemistry was ransacked for agents
which would disinfect the hands,
and the scrubbing and dimensions
to which they subjected their hands
are even yet tender memory to
the surgeons Of that period. But all
Of these efforts proved useless and
at last in despair surgeons took to
wearing rubber gloves which could

EIGHTEEN MASONIC HOME CHILD
rem ENTERTAINED

The Masonic Brothers and the
good ladies of the Eastern Star
Order rendered a delightful recep-
tion 10 the eighteen students sent
here from the Masonic Home OF
Louisville, in their Hall, Saturday
night.
Nearly one hundred persons were
present. Among the invited guests
were Deans Mathcny and Edwards
and their wives, Mr.. and Mrs. Wer-
tenberger, Mrs. ClemcI', the Misses
Bowersox. Boatright and Smith.
A bountcous repast was served
which was thoroughly enjoyed by
all. After the feast, toasts were in
dulged in by number who gave
the students most excellent advice.
Captain Herndon presided and made
the hour a real enjoyable one by his
unique methods Of managing affairs.

boys without parents should have

be boiled, thus bringing TO each
patient, as ii were, fresh pair of
sterile hands. In other words, try
as you will, you can't by any known
method make your hands absolutely
clean.
The great agent i'm the spread of
those diseases whose causative or
ganism is present in the secretions
of the mouth and nose, is the human
hand. and if saliva was bright green
we would be amazed at the color of
our fingers. As a matter of fact
most of us carry our fingers to our
mouth or nose many times daily,
there to implant the germs of dis
ease which other careless people
have spread about, there to collect a
fresh cargo of infectious material
to scatter for somebody else.
II is true that most germs Of dis
ease die quickly once they leave the
human body but what does the
death of a few billion germs matter
so long as the supply is cOpious and
never ending.
What an enormous number OF
infected things we touch during the
day and how infrequent and cur
sorry are the hand washings we per-
form.
The answer is to keep your fin
gers out of your mouth and nose.
Thus we limit the spread Of disease
from these oriflces at least, thus we
eliminate the danger of contracting
disease from someone else who was
not quite so careful.

WHAT WILL BE THE VERDICT or
A MILLION MOTHERS1

The size Of the American army
behind the western front has in
creased So rapidly that the average
man would be- utterly astonishcd
il he were told the number Of SOL
dlers abroad.
There is every indication that the
government will be successful in
transporting a million men across
1918 begins.
And the mothers Of America are
beginning 10 get disquieting reports.
Most Of these sohiiers are young
men. Thousands Of them are being
taken whether their parents are
willing or not.
II may be said once and for all
that American mothers put no faith
in the bunk" regarding the harm
less character of French wine.
when they hear from their sons
that the American soldiers are be
ing soaked with wine they become
uneasy. They are not willing that
one liquor appetite should come back
across the water that did not go
acG0ss
De towns in which American
soldiers are billeted should be under
the control Of American military
authorities and in those towns the
sale of liquor to American soldiers
should be rigidly prohibited.
The Government will he wise in
deed il il sees trouble afar and
passes around the other way. The
kind Of trouble that is in sight
now is not a necessary kind. The
French government should be made
TO understand exactly what the SEN
timent is as 10 alcohol. The good
sense and unfailing courtesy OF the
French people will lead them to-
Cooperate fully with American au-
thorities.

can camps is to be in the hands OF

of course at these so-called can
