COMMUNICABLE DISEASES AND
SCHOOLS

The opening of schools in the fall is
usually marked by an increase IN tne
number of communicable diseases. sea-
sonabie changes are considered to have
some influence but the real explanation
is mainly represented in two factors~-the
schools and the child. The damaging in
fuence upon the health from the poor
ventilation, badly adjusted seats and
desks, crowded school rooms, worry ana
fatigue, are all predisposing factors IN
communicable diseases. One remedy
would be to correct as nearly as possible
the above mentioned defects.
me child is the other factor In the
communicable disease problem among
the school children, and probably is the
most important factor, inasmuch as the
cilid brings the communicable disease TO
school, and is in turn the recipient Oh
such communicable disease. The parents
are very largely to blame for this and not
the child. Parents too frequently over
look the needs or conditions of their
children before sending them to school.
rarents are Sometimes responsible Tor

or be permitted to play with other chill

WILL MOBILIZE LADY
BUGS TO ROUT APH|DS

The aphid hosts which attack the
grain fields of Oregon and Washing
ton each drought season and cause
serious loss are to be routed next
year by an army of lady-bugs re-
cruited from the mountains and can
yons of the national forests, If
plan now on foot is successfully car
ried out.
The bureau of entomology, assist
ed by the state and county agents,
is attempting to locate a sufficient
number of the lady-bugs to meet
any emergency which may arise in
the grain districts Of the two states.
The lady-bug has no more use for
aphids than civilization has for the
Huns and attacks and destroys them
with great zest, according to ento-
mologists who are familiar with the
insects.
The lady bugs, which are really
beetles and not bugs at all, congre-
gate early in the fall at high alti-
tudes. or in canyon bottoms, and are
sometimes found in all manner OF
places. They remain inactive in
those large colonies, or caches as
these gatherings are called, until
late the following spring, clinging to
vegetation of all kinds. The beetles
have red body with black spots
and are from one-eighth to one
fourth inch in length.
The forest service will cooperate
with the bureau Of entomology in
locating lady-bug caches, and thus
facilitate their collection when
needed.

RUSSIANS WILL FACE
A TERRIBLE WINTER

London, Sept. 26.-(Correspon-
dence of the Associated Press).-
Russia is facing a winter Of hunger
and cold augmented this year be-
cause of the extreme scarcity of
fuel which prevails in all parts OF
that country. The lack of coal has
been keenly felt ever since the loss
of the Donetz basin to the Germans
early last spring. 1t affected the
railroads and caused factories to be
shut down.
The Czech-Slovak operations in
Siberia and in the UraI region have
prevented any relief from that di-
rection.
The stores of wood in Moscow and
tetrograd, owing to the lack oil
transportation facilities and Other
difficulties too numerous to men
tion, are far from sufficient to meet
the demands of a long winter. A
Moscow paper estimated months age
that the supplies of wood in that city
would hardly suffice to satisfy the
needs of public utilities this winter
and that in consequence all private
enterprises and homes could moi
hope to get even limited Quantit,
of it.
The one who has experienced the
discomforts of cold Russian win
ter even under better conditions, th'
situation is far from alluring. Tn,
chilly atmosphere of an unheatet
apartment, darkness in the streets
and homes, the quiet of a city undis
turbed by the rumble of street carr
and motor vehicles, and, lastly, tn,
uncomfortable feeling of an empt.
stomach-such are the prospects o
the coming winter in Russia.

BOLSHEv|Kl LEADERS
DIVIDED IN PLANS

Moscow, July 20.-(By Associate
ed Press Courier to Stockholm
Bolsheviki leaders are divided as to
the best means of perpetuating So
Wet Russia. One faction wants a
real army to fight Germany and be-
lieves actual war with Germany will
be necessary. Another faction, which
includes those who lean toward the
social revolutionists, would wage gu
erilla warfare against Germany and
attack Germans wherever and when
ever possible. The third and pre-
dominating group urges the preser-
vation of the Brest peace and clings
to the hope that social revolution in
Germany and all the rest of the
world will be brought about by con-
stant agitation. Such revolution
in Germany, in the opinion of this
group, will mean the restoration to
Russia of all its territory and the
permanency of the soviet govern.
