GRIDDLE GIRL TAKES
 JOB OF MAN STRIKER
(New York Tribune.D

Enter the griddle girl. The lordly parsonage who Hips the flapJacks oc- hind plate glass windows was missing yesterday, and in his place stood one with daintier and perhaps derter hanos than his.
 It was a strike and not the exigencies of war which made necessary this last call on the womanhood or the city. When the griddlejacks quit the waitresses heroically stepped into the breach and saved the day for Park Rows hungry hosts, according at the same time another demonstration of hitherto unsuspected capacities in woman.
 It was high time; for the city's pride in it's lords of the griddle, standing white clad and noble in the expanse of purity about them. has been sadly shaken these last months. The spec tacle has become irritating rather than inspiring. When women were working their pickaxes and baggage trucks on our railroads and the daughters of the subway guards and trolley car con. ductors are battling with the rush hour crowds in our public conveyances, 1t had become a farce to retain men for the trivial task of fliDping flapjacks.
 It became an anomaly without an eX-
 
 particular task in the program of city life for which women were fitted ''py nature and tradition" and for which the large and broad shouldered sex is superflous it would be that simple art of Tipping flapiacks. Not that it is not an art, only to be appreciated by one who tries and fails to flip the perfect product. This is not, however, ques- tion which involves to any extent the difficult arguments about women as chefs. Just why the peculiar genius of man is required for the art of dis guising good food with rich sauces is something we know nothing about. It does not concern this discussion, al- though it may figure in the news from Paris at any moment. Our griddlejack, however is 90 chef

It is the spot where expressions of ten- derness gush out without any sensa' ton of awkwardness, and without any dread of ridicule.--F. w. Robertson.

WILL MEET IN M'GREGoR.
Iowa Conservation Association TO Hold
" Annual Conference Next Week.

McGregor, July 9.-The annual sum-
mer meeting of the Iowa Conservation
Association is announced to take place
at McGregor, on Sunday. Monday and
Tuesday, IA, Is and 16 inst, respective
ly. This is within the far-famed scenic
region, by the Mississippi, site Of the
proposed national park, and program
of an inviting character has been pre-
pared, which will doubtless bring to-
gether visitors from all over the state.
The organization founded in 1901
with prominent educators of the state
in the van, men who are still in the
van of the movement, has within the
last twelve months undergone sig
nificant change. While previously, work
of valuable academic character had
been done the area of effort had been
largely confined to such conditions. But
with new steps taken, inviting the. CO.
operation of Iowa at large, radical
and far reaching change Isl evident all
along the line. The membership has
increased some 500 per cent, while the
coming year promises to see this adj
vance not only maintained, but running
into thousands.
The organization, first known as the
Iowa Park and Forestry Association
and representing the interests such
title indicates, now bears the significant
name of the Iowa Conservation Asso-
ciation," it's province being the protec-
ton and preservation Of the entire nat
ural resources of the state. its trees,
lakes, streams. birds, mammals, plants,
wild flowers. fish and beauty spots.
The summer meeting at McGregor
should be notable one, as not only are
the association members expected, but
there is hearty invitation to all resi-
dents in the state everywhere to attend
and enjoy the sessions. And not only
is this avenue of effort and work Of
supreme Importance to the state of
Iowa from the general home viewpoint.
but it will Immediately be seen where
it comes to as a war measure. In fact
the opportunities opened up for pro-
noting the welfare of our common
wealth in it's internal. interstate and
world wide relations along social, edu-
cational and legislative lines are almost
boundless.

PICTURE SHOWS AND PUBLIC
GATHERINGS BARRED BECAUSE
OF iNFANTlLE PARALYSIS.
SITUATION APPEARS
:. SOMEWHAT BRIGHTER.
Three New Cases and One Death Re-
ported Monday-Streets and Parks
Deserted by Children, Who Are
Practically ouarantiped in Their
demonstrating Pool Closed.
Specia1 to Times Republican.

Special to Times-RepuDllcan
Dubuque, July 9.-The infantile par
alysts epidemic situation here took on
a brighter aspect Monday when only
three new cases and one death were
reported to the local board of health.
According to those in charge, however,
the situation is still serious and calls
for stringent measures. The cases re-
ported yesterday were in widely sep
arated sections of the city, a fact which
caused some apprehension among ply
sictans and health officials. 1t had been
hoped to confine the disease to several
sections, but late reports indicate that
quarantine regulations must be adopted
to meet the situation in the city as
whole.
Sunday the streets and parks Of the
city were practically deserted and few
children were seem Parents, as a rule,
have been quick to respond to the or
ders and suggestions of the health
board in keeping the children at home
aand away from public places of any
kind. Monday, orders We're given to
allow no child under u years OF age
to enter the municipal bathing pool in
the north end Of the city. where thou
sands are attracted daily during the
hot weather Children also have been
barred from riding on street cars.
Public Gatherings Barred.
Since Saturday morning, when the
order was issued, not picture show
has operated here. Sunday schools
were closed Sunday while children are
prohibited from entering department
CT any ether stores. Children are not
allowed to gather in numbers in any
enclosed place but the parents have
been urged to allow them to get out
into the open as much as possible.
Strict orders regarding the disposition
of garbage and rubbish have also been
issued by the board of health and po-
lice officials have been instructed to
see that residents comply with the
regulations.
Monday the board of health, accom-
panied by police officers and the city
attorney. canvassed the city and noti-
fed owners of lots used as private
dumping grounds that the practice must
be discontinued at once. The city at
torney gave out a statement following
the tour and said that violators would
be prosecuted to the limit.
While there has been some uncer-
tainty about the actual number of cases
in existence here, a careful re-checkins
yesterday revealed that there were ex-
actly thirty reported UP to late Mon
day. Several cases of other contagious
diseases had been included in lists for
merly given out. while several deaths
attributed to infantile paralysis were
caused by other diseases. To date there
have been six deaths known, to have
been caused by paralysis while at least
two or possibly three children died of
the disease but which were not reported
as such.
