Do You Want a
Calling Which
Will Open the
Doors Of the
World to You?
Such an Opportunity is Offered
to You and You are Urged
to Take 1t Free of
Charge Now

Tampa, Fla, July 1O.-One reason
why the call for men to enter the
United States Shipping boards train
ing courses has met with good re-
sponse the country over, as explained
by M. M. Taylor, the Tampa druggist,
who is special enrolling agent for
the sea training bureau, is that it is
generally realized that a man who
learns to be seaman has a calling
which will stand him in good stead
many years after the war is over.
"When peace comes, thousands of
soldiers will be thrown back into civil
life, and there will be a scurry fci
good jobs that will make them diff
cult to find, am afraid" he said to-
day. "On the other hand, peace is
going to mean a revival of mercantile
trade with all the world that will pro-
vide for employment of every man
who goes to sea during the war. Ship
building will not stop, and even larger
crews and more trained mariners will
be required.
That is the principal reason back
of the choice made by hundreds of
young men, who are anxious to serve
their country, and have the courage to
risk life on government merchant
ship to an equal degree with those
who choose the trenches" Mr.. Tay-
lor continued "They know that after
the war sailors will be in demand, but
there will be far too many soldiers,
and they are looking to the future as
well as patriotically resolving to, do
their Bit
He pointed out that no man Of
draft age need hesitate about enroll
ing for the merchant marine or en-
tering the school Of navigation, for
| deck officers, since the training ships
for the merchant service are open on
ly to men of the draft ages, from 81
ito 81. The war department has rec
ogn;zed the Importance of this serv-
ice and gives full credit to those who
enter upon it.

ration to do business in this city, pro-
vided a commission form of govern
ment is established in Tarpon Springs,
Florida; that they will then proceed to
have this done at once.
The city council are but servants of
the people, and its members must do
as the people say; and they will act if
the people desire them to do so. At
any rate, election is near at hand,
when new members to the council will
be elected, and also other officials will
be elected; and the legislature will
also meet next winter, when the mat
ter can be put through.
Our sureme court has sustained the
commission form of government for
municipalities, and with united front
of the citizens of this city, which can
be obtained, the matter can be arrang-
ed. Of course, there will be few
ralcontents, but they will be negligi-

PREVENTIVE TREATMENT OF
TYPHOID.

The brilliant results of incubation
against typhoid as shown in the army
should be a strong incentive to all
who are engaged in the prevention of
this disease, to make far more in
tensive use of this method of immuni
zation against typhoid than has been
made. North Carolina reports show
very successful efforts have been
made in the last year or so, to bring
about the general immunization of
the public, county by county, and the
results in most of the counties are
very gratifying.
We may not succeed Immediately in
getting the entire community immun-
ized, but when typhoid appears in a
family, the action taken for the pro-
lection of the other members of the
family should be as promptly taken as
It IS when SMALLPOX enters the family.
The state board of health wishes to
emphasize the fact that typhoid fever
may be, and often is, spread by per-
senal contact, or association with the
sick.
The following history of an unfor-
tunate family is given here as an il
lustration: The family consisted of
parents and nine children, of which
one son returned with typhoid fever.
The result was nine cases of typhoid
in that one household, all but the
mother and baby. Here is where vac
cination against the disease would
have played a very important role in
prevention.
There are cases of typhoid SO atypi-
cal that their recognition as such is
a very difficult matter and they be-
come extra hazardous to others, be-
cause the danger is not suspected.
When typhoid occurs in infants or
young children, the true nature of the
disease is often overlooked. Not long
ago typhoid in infants was considered
extremely rare. The mortality and
morbidity from state heath depart
ments still seem to confirm that i'm
pression-due probably to error in di-
agnosis in very young children.
One of the Northern states reports
seven hundred and eighty-one deaths
from typhoid, which occurred from
1909 to 1917--seven years. Only nine
of these victims were under two years,
and only thirty-four were under five
years. The reason for this small show
ing of child decedents in mortality
rates is due largely to the fact that
symptoms presented in typhoid in
children are very likely to be SO diff
ferent from those seen in adults that
many of them do not come under med
ical observation, or the attending ply
sician may easily overlook, or fail to
recognize, the cases as those Of ty-
phoid; and the younger the child, the
more likely are symptoms to depart
widely from those seen in adults.
Here it is that it is so important to
have a blood test made.
The state board Of health wants the
people to know that a blood test for
typhoid is done at the state laborato-
rN and typhoid vaccine furnished
within the state for the asking.

Hon. A. E. Welsh,

Tarpon Springs, Fla, July 9, 1918,
Hon. A. E. Welsh,
Enfield, I'll.
Dear Sir:
Your letter to The Evening Leader
CT this city, and published in today's
issue, is now before me. This letter
has been read by many of the citizens
Of Tarpon Springs, and all whom l
have talked with express their SINGER
est thanks to you for your kind offer.
There is no place on the west coast
Of Florida that offers place for a
better harbor than the Anclote river
and do not except Tampa We have
here the location and conditions where
a harbor can be made far superior to
any that Tampa ever will have, pro-
vided the citizens pulled together like
they do in other cities.
The writer was a resident of Los
Angeles, California, when all of the
steps s1were taken for making harbor
o. San Pedro. The conditions here are
far better than they were there be-
Sore the work was started. With the
Anclote keys as protection, and in
position where storms are practical
II unknown. and right on the Gulf of
Mexico, with a bottom as stable as
aean be, what more can we expect; and
the cost viii be exceedingly small for
the benefits to be derived.
"a number of our prominent citizons
met and make this proposition to you:
tsshat il you IN some way assure them
is bond, or otherwise, that your offer
ss 81 legitimate one and that the sum
of one hundred and twenty-five thous-
and dollars win be available for the

WILL 1ARPON BE ALLOWED TO
PROGRESS?

The letter from Mr.. A. E. Welsh
printed in yesterdays Leader, in
which he offered to bring S125,000 new
capital to Tarpon Springs to invest in
the shipbuilding industry, provided
the present inefficient city government
were removed, or resigned, or in some
manner gotten out of the way of the
city's progress, has created a mild
sensation, and well it might when it
is realized that this proposition, as
Mr.. Welsh says, was first made to the
president of the city council and the
president not only failed to bring it
before the people but was not sufi-
GENTLY interested even to reply to the
proposition, so Mr.. Welsh took the
proper means of bringing his proposal
before the people by writing to The
Evening Leader and having the letter
published.
A number of prominent citizens and
business men called at The Leader Of
flee this morning and expressed their
keen desire to inaugurate more pro-
gressive form of government, thereby
removing the cause of the city's fail
ure to progress as it should
A number of citizens met and dis
cussed the letter from Mr.. Welsh last
night and Mr.. John F. Greene dis
patched the following letter to Mr..

New York. May 6.--The gratifying success of the Liberty loan, which automatically released liquid capital from many of it's recent restraints, and the more hopeful war bulletins gave decided impetus to todays stock market, several leaders scoring

 gains, with General Electric New York Air Brake and American Car. Shippings, tobaccos and sugars were
 mainly representative of a revival of professional activity, Sumatra To- bacco mounting to a new maximum on
 it's gross gain of points to 105 1-2. Copptrs. oils and fertilizers derived much of their strength from pool op-
 erations.
