DISEASE AT FUNSTON
Case of Dread Spinal Meningitis Re-
ported From Camp.

Manhattan, Kan, Sept. 13.-The re-
port that there is a case of spinal
meningitis at Camp Funston was veri-
fled today by the local health board.
The soldier has been sick only since
Saturday evening and was taken to the
base hospital Sunday morning. as soon
as the disease was identified, and all
precautions for the prevention of the
spread of the disease have been taken.
As this is the first case of the kind
reported at the camp since early
spring, it is believed that it was
brought into the camp by a carrier
from the outside and the medical men
do not fear an,epidemic.

Yachts Register
For America Is
Minus Its FLAGS

Conditions in England at the begin
ming of 1915, after six months Of the
great war, left no ground for question
as to the necessity for the suspension
of Lloyds Register of British and Con-
tinental Yachts; and after continuous
publication for thirty-eight years the
work was discontinued for the dura-
ton of the war
When the same question arose last
fall in relation to the Register of
American and Canadian Yachts the
answer was not so obvious, and after
serious consideration of the condition
of American yachting at the end of
last season, and of the war outlook, it
was decided to issue the register as
usual in 1918. A very complete record
was sent out last month.
The new Register of American
Yachts" is Identical with its predeces-
sors in all respects except in the omis-
sion of the plates of flags, making a
somewhat thinner volume. The print
ing Of the flag plates, usually some 600
club burgess and the private signals
of some 1000 yachtsmen is under the
most favorable conditions one of the
serious problems connected with the
production of a yacht register,

IT would just as lief americanize a
language as americanize an individual.
You should not regard the language in
which you print your periodicals as a
foreign language when printed in Anne
RIGA for the conveyance of American
thinking. Then we will have taken
another step toward that combination
of elements which in the long run Is
going to make America more various
in its natural gifts, more variegated in
its genius than any other country in the
world
