TELLS HOW TO KEEP
MILK DURING SUMMER
Miss A. c. Bradley Gives Address
on Care of Children.

How to keep milk IN hot weather
without ice was one OF the problems
discussed by Miss A. c. Bailey, su-
perintendent of Visiting Nurses OF

of Children at Friendship House, Se6
Virginia avenue southeast last night
Miss Bailey told the mothers pres
ent 10 put the milk in q pan of cold
water and place q thick towel over the
bottle with the corners and ends in
the cold water. This was merely TO
be used as an expedient when ice
could not be obtained. She also ad-
vised the women to use a clean glass
upside down 10 cover the milk bot
tie after the stopper had been removed
instead Of replacing the cover which
might contain germs.

The Germ of Syphilis.

The germ that causes syphilis is
called the spirochete palIida, or for
short the spirochete. 1t may be
found in the primary sore or chan
ere, and must be found there in
order to make a positive diagnosis
of syphilis without any reservation
ANY doctor with a miscrope can
find it if it is there. A diagnosis
of syphilis, in the primary stage of
chancre or hard sore, is only a
good guess until the spirochete has
been discovered in the lesion How
ever good doctors generally guess
right in SO out of every hundred
cases of syphilis.
About one-fourth of all cases of
syphilis are seen in innocent per
sons, for the disease is not only in
herited but acquired through ordI-
nary personal contact with those
who have it. And persons having
syphilis generally look clean and
healthy to the lay observer; more
over the best of families have their
fair STARE of syphilis, so that stand
ing in the community is no bar to
the spread of this disease.
1t has been found that the spiro-
chetes are easily killed. They die
if removed from the lesion and al
lowed to dry a short time They
die in a few minutes if exposed to
direct sunlight. Soap and water
quickly kills them, and the lather
applied by the barber is the best of
spirocheticides. The BARRIERS lather
is the protection that stands be
tween the syphilitic customer and
the barber himself or between the
syphilitic customer and the next
occupant of the chair. Syphilis. by
the way. Is only one reason why a
barber should never be permitted

Compulsory Military Training.

Senator Martin of Virginia, chairman of the sen
ate appropriations committee. is strongly against
large standing army and compulsory military train
ing. He is quoted having said:
The world has now got TO devote itself
TO the overwhelming problems of peace and
reconstruction and there will be no money to
waste on large standing armies, here or else
where The entire world has been impover-
ished to a point where it simply can not af-
ford TO go in the old way. Wars are over
for fifty years. perhaps forever. At any rate
this country can and will not in my judgment,
follow the advice of the militarists and waste
its men and money on huge military estab-
lshment under compulsory military training.
Doubtless the senator has had his to the
ground listening the rumblings in his home state
And Virginia, it may be confidently stated, is not
the only place where the people will approve his
sentiments It is safe to say that compulsory mill
taTy training will be adopted under any truly
representative form Of governmental least while
Germany's example remains fresh in the minds of
the people. America does not want it and will not
have it
Undoubtedly there is much to be said in favor
Of some general system for training disciplinng
young men Conducted along certain lines it would
tend to improve them physically and probably men
tally and morally well There is no question that
men composing the present American army will be
the better off for their experiences.
There is vast difference. however between the
effects Of such training in time war and in time
of peace War makes it serious business, into
which men throw themselves with their whole souls
As a rule they readily undergo the hardshps en-
dure the toll and submit the discipline because
they patriotic and anxious to fight for what
they believe TO be right Peace-time training on
the other hand, is wholly lacking in such incentive
and becomes more or less farcicaL besides tend
ing to up military caste which is intolerable in
free country.
The will to do and the spirit of self-sacrifics
which weld an army together into an effective ma
chine in time Of national danger persist and tend
when the peril is past TO make the soldiers better
citizens than they would have been without their
military experience.
We need never fear that the evils of miIitarism
viii be perpetuated by such an army as we now
have If it had been created under peace condt-
tons there would be valid grounds for apprehension
