For GrandmOt Only.

Man is the unwilling host of more
than three hundred kinds of animal
parasites. Yes, indeed, doctors do
believe in worms.
DR.. Oscar NJ Schloss carefully
studied 80 children from to L
years of age, and found that Il of
30 children who had unexplained
nervous and stomach or bowel
symptoms harbored worms. Eighty
of ESQ children consecutiyely exam
ined harbored worms. Twenty
three of the children had pin worms
and five of them had tape worms.
Among the 80 children who were
found to harbor one or another kind
of worms, only IS had any symp-
toms or disturbance of health-so
that even when it is scientifically
proved that a child harbors para
sites in the intestine that is no rea-
son for attributing the child's ILL
ness to the presence of the worms
| dislike to reiterate this, grand
ma, but you know a fellow must
defend himself when he has the
chance
Children or adults may harbOr
tape worms without having any dis
turbance of health whatever The
combination of enormous appetite
with an undernOurished state of
the body in young persons, though
popularity suggestive of tape worm.
is by no means evidence of para
sites The only way the presence
of tape worm can be determined is

character.
Forthwith the trustees indited a
letter TO Miss Vaille informing her
that they would expect her on a
certain date to sign the contract
and arrange to settle in the town
and take up her tutelary duties.
Great minds, it is said, move in the
same channels, and the mentalities
OF the two school trustees seemed
at once headed in the selfSame di-
rection. 1t was noticed that Nathan
Perkins bought a new suit of
clothes. 1t was further observed
that the judge mended up and
painted his old automobile till it
looked quite presentable.
What you got in that noodle of
yours" intimated Perkins to his
fellow trustee one day.
Just what you've got in yours, ="
retorted the judge with a SLY
chuckle

He does" assented the Judge.
Miss Ernestine Vaille arrived AS
she came down the depot platform

If the Hun is anxious to end air raids defense
less noncombatants his change of heart is attribu-
able but thing-he is unable to longer hold his
at the game and sees no possible hope of doing
the future. In the early days of the when
the German had the big edge the allies in aerial
preparedness he excused his barbarities the
ground of military expediency. It's a poor rule that
doesn't work both ways.

CAMPAIGN FOR ECONOMY IN USE OF
 AL KINDS PAPER

The War Industries Board authoriz es the following:
 T. E. Donnelley, chief of the pulp and paper section, War Industries Board, yesterday announced that his section would shortly undertake gen. eral publicity campaign for economy in the use of all kinds of paper, the purpose being to educate the consum- ing public to the importance of con servation as war measure. This new work of the pulp and paper sec tion has been placed in charge of Dr. E. O. Merchant, member of the sec. tion, who is also in charge of the pa. per investigations of the Federal Trade Commission. 2
 Paper has been so cheap and sc plentiful in the past that people little realized its. value But war condit ions demand prompt and radical change in the habits of consumers and the members of the pulp and pa per section feel confident that when the consuming public is shown the reasons and the necessity for such change they will promptly and patri- otically respond to the appeal for con servation. as they have done to the various other appeals that have been made by the Government.
 Will Appeal to Public
 It is the intention of the pulp and paper section, with the cooperation ot the public press, to show the consum- ing public how the demands of the Government for various kinds of pap CT and for various chemicals and oth- CT materials used in paper making increasing rapidly and how every pound of paper wasted represents not only the waste of valuable materials, such as coal, pulp, chemicals, etc., but also the waste of productive labor, working capital, and transportation space, in all of which there is an in- creasing scarcity.

 There never was a war to which men could give themselves with great e. confidence and devotion. There never was war in which man had less excuse for holding back. There never was a time when a man could be mere desirous to be known as a sc,dier There never will be a cen i tury in the worlds history in which mans family. his townmen, and his countrymen will be prouder to point him out as one of their men-one of 1 the men who had the honor of being ;n the Army.
 This is your war. You are going to win it by what you are-good Ameri- cans and good soldiers. You are good Americans already. It will take some time to make good soldiers out of you. The sooner you start the sooner you will arrive Begin now!
