claim that such is the remedy to
keep the crown smoothed ON the

this section, until the greater ven

And the federal government has rec
commended that the roads be divided
off into links like they were under
the old overseer system and local
farmers be assigned such links to
drag after each rain at a regular
fixed rate per time and mile to be
promptly allowed by the county SUI
pervisors at theis monthly meetings.
That will keep up the crown OF the
roads, eliminate the ruts, and fill up
the washes, like nothing else will, tor

promptly with their bills at mini

been decided that the Juniors earn
and give at least one-half million dol
lars year 30 long as 1t may be neces-
sary, to support projects for carrying
relief to the Suffering children of for

sum and within the scope Of their will

When the government first began to
study the cost OF venereal diseases to
the army and navy, in money. in fight
Ing days. and In general morale, almost
every one thought that higher per-
centage of these diseases would be
found among the regulars than among
our boys who had come from our home
towns. The draft, however, showed
that we were wrong In our SUPPOSE
ton. In other words, these infections
were not product of army life, but
the boys brought them with them from
all over the country. Plainly, then. II
the war departments attack on vene-
real diseases was to meet with any
real success. the civil communities
must take up the fight. The second
step, therefore, was the gaining Of the
cooperation of allNthe states in a ma
tion-wide campaign.
Since the problem Is primarily one
Of public health, the campaign was
carried to the Individual states through
the state boards OF health. The first
step In this State was the requirement
Of physicians to report cases of vene-
real disease to the State Board Of
Health, Just as other communicable dis
eases are reported. A number OF plac-
ards, warning against the contraction
Of venereal infection, and advising
against the use Of patent nostrums for
self-treatment or the patronizing OF
Quack doctors who advertise to effect
rapid cure, were framed under glass
and posted in public toilets in certain
parts of the State Such literature 40

session were appealed to and request

termed after model laws proposed by
authorities in Washington, both Of
which were approved by the Governor
on March 2Sth, 1918
A simultaneous and concerted drive
against venereal disease by all states
was impossible because of lack Of
funds and the inability to obtain any
until appropriated by the state legis-
latures, most of which were not SEIZED
uled to meet regularly until 1919. Rec
ognizing this, Congress passed the
Chamberlain-Kahn amendment to the
Army Appropriations Bill, on July 9Th,
1918, creating an Interdepartmenta
Social Hygiene Board, composed of
the Secretaries of the Treasury, Navy
and War, and one member each OF the
Medical Corps, U. s. A., the Medical
Corps, U. s. N, and the United States
Public Health Service. This amend
ment also created Division of vene-
real Diseases in the Public Health
Service, and appropriated the sum Of
100000 for each of two years, 1918
and 1919, to be spent. in cooperation
with state boards of health, in the
control of venereal diseases.
1t was provided that the amount Of,
the appropriation be apportionedI
among the states on the basis of the
population of the census of 1910. Mis-
sissippi's share, ON this basis, is $ls,-.
$40,
AS soon as the necessary legal re-
quirements were met and disposed Of,
Bureau of Venereal Disease was Gre
ated in the State Board of Health. This
Bureau is now in active operation, and
the campaign is being pushed under
the direction of the State Board Of
Health
The various phases of the campaign
and the progress made in each will be
taken up in subsequent articles.

Chief Of Red CroA Riddles

The children all over the nation, real
izing that they must work together,
were asking what they could do. II
was in this spirit that the Red Cross
was organized, and having proven Il
self of so much value and so vital
to the social accomplishments of the
school, teachers throughout the coun-
try have learned that this spirit OF
service that the children have devsl-
oped during the period of war must
not be allowed to die.
w. ]. Studebaker. formerly city ~.
perintendent of schools at Des Moines,
Iowa. himself an educator, who has
taken over the work of National Di-
rector of Junior Activities, realizes
what a potent factor the education Of
the children Of America in the spirit of
service has been in the period of war
and what it can develop under the new
Peace Program for the Juniors. This
new spirit of service, this new power
to do. the new impulse to give ID
awaiting the new Peace Program to
find its outlet
But the spirit of service as epito.
mized in Junior Red Cross. must have
the power OF sympathy and the love
Of mankind behind 1t, in order to pre-
vent mechanical effort. When thess
three factors are properly mixed In
the work of the Juniors 1t makes the
thing that stretches the hands ol
help across the sea.
