DISEASE AND SCHOOLS.

The opening of schools in the fall is usually
marked by an increase in the number OF COM
municable diseases. Seasonable changes are con-
sidered to have some influence, but the real ex-
planation is mainly represented in two factors
the schools and the child. The damaging influ-
ence upon the health of the children from poor
ventilation, badly adjusted seats and desks,
crowded school rooms, worry and fatigue are all
uredisposing factors in communicable diseases.
One remedy would be to correct as nearly as pos
sible the above mentioned defects.
The child is the other factor In the commune
able disease problem among the school children,
and probably is the most important factor mas
much as the child brings the communicable dis
to school, and is in turn the recipient Of such
communicable disease. The parents are very
largely to blame for this and not the child. Par
ents too frequently overlook the needs or condl-
lions of their children before sending them to
the spread of communicable disease in that they
permit their sick child to go to school.
No child that is sick, no child with an acute
eruption or an acute bad cold should be sent to
school, or be permitted to play with other chill
dren It is wrong for the sick child and unfair
to the other children. A child who is sick can
not profit by going to school; it only interferes
with the work of the others in the class and may
be the source of serious illness to great many
others No child should attend school with an
acute cold or sore throat until examined by ply
sician and obtain a health certificate.
All precautions should be taken to safeguard
the health of children. To teach children to keep
in good health by the right means of living should
be an important part of their education.

GREAT OPPORTUNITIES FOR FLORIDA.

Florida has more sea coast than any other

sat re situation, Edward N. Hurley, Chair
man OF Tie u. S. Shipping Board, says
Farmers must acquire worldly vision and pre-
pare to take advantage of these ships when peace
returns. Farmers everywhere should begin to
think less in terms of next-town trade and more
in terms of world trade The country merchant
can also be a constructive factor in his commun-
ity It is business to look about and see what his
section produces, then investigate to find out if
there is a chance of developing an export market
for local products After that it will be to the
farmers themselves to organize for developing
world and advise the government of their needs
in ocean transportation"
When the is over, Mr.. Hurley says, recon-
struction will begin in the countries of Europe,
the industries of which have been so seriously
undermined. They must have materials such
those produced in this co untry. Up to this time
Americas new fleet of ships has been engaged in
transporting soldiers, supplies and munitions of
war. The soldiers must be returned to America,
but the supplies, if they are to continue, must be
for the civil population of Europe and not for
armies. The munitions of war will no longer be
shipped; hence it seems possible that vessels re-
turning to Europe for the American army may
sea1ily - utilized in carrying the products of
America.

ducts to send. We have the sea at our doors, and
ports to be reached, without long railroad haus.

NOW is THE TIME.

Only two more days remain for raising the
quota for Escanbia county, in the great United
War Work drive, which is to put this county over
the top, to the of S62,5O0.
1t has not been an easy task that the commit
tee has had before them. 1t is task as yet by
far from completed. That the quota for Escam-
bia county will be raised one can doubt for a
moment. But it can be made very much easier
if every man. woman and child will do their part
today.
Do not wait until tomorrow. Do not wait un-
til the soliciting committee comes to you. Make
your offering voluntary. And, better still, make
it generous.
1t must be remembered that the work of seven
organizations is to be accomplished. And these
organizations are asking that when you subscribe
you Multiply what you would give to each organi-
zation at least three times-and, if possible,
seven times.
The president, and army and navy officials
have not only given their sanction to this work,
but have recognized it as being of the utmost i'm
portance in the reconstruction program.
It is little enough that we can do. These boys,
not an alien army, but own, have gone over
seas and have made every possible sacrifice for
us. Surely we do no less than to care for
them, to give them every possible comfort, in the
hard days that remain to them, before they re-
turn to us.
Pensacolians, more perhaps than most
munities can realize how little, after ALL it is
that we can do.
The War Camp Community Service here is do
ing splendid work for the men of the service,
but surely it has been little enough. The Y. M.
&c. A. has done splendid part, but surely it has
been little enough. The Y. M. C. A. has done
splendid part, but surely no will say that it
has done too much. Or that the Knights of Co.
lumbus or the Jewish Welfare Board are doing
too much.
1t is just such work as this, only even of great
er Importance that these organizations are doing
on the other SIDE
Every man, woman and child in Pensacola can
help them, and can help them now-for now is
the accepted time, and may be the last time that
the opportunity will come to us.

A bolshevik chorus Of indignant protests
met the statements Of the American,
British and japanese governments to
the Russian people, setting forth the
reasons which impel them to dispatch
troops to Russia.
The editorials in official and non-
official bolshevik papers rivaled each
other in the use Of denunciatory Ian
guage and abound in such expressions
as lies" Hypocrisy" stupidity" and
others of a similar character, all de-
signed to convince the readers that the
allies did not mean to help Russia. but
only to crush the soviet government
and draw the country into the war in
order to improve their own position on
the western front.
