DIPHTHERIA IS MAKING
 RECORD IN THIS STATE

During the past ten weeks more than l,3W cases of diphtheria have been reported by local health officers I to the state department of health. The l figures are over fifty per cent high CT than for any like period within ten years and probably the highest in the history of the state. Parents and teachers should again be cautioned to regard every indication of sore throat in 9 child as possibly diphtheria. No child who has even very slight sore ness of the throat should be permit ted to attend school. When any such l case is discovered by a teacher, the child must be sent home and the health officer notified immediately, says Dr. E. T. Reeks in his weekly report from the state department of 1 health.
 Many inquiries have been received recently by the state department of 1 health concerning the Sehick test and the administration of toxinantitoxin The purpose of the Schiek test is imerely to determine whether or not person is susceptible to diphtheria.
 Many people have in their blood suf- ficient antitoxin to render them inn mune. Nursing infants have high de- igree of immunity due, apparently, to some protective substance in mothers milk; but immediately after being tweened children develop a high de-
 gree of susceptibility to diphtheria. Between the ages of one and two years nearly 80 per cent. of children are ii- able to contract the disease.
 By the use of the Schick test it can be shown whether Or not child may ieentract diDhtheria. The test is sim
 pie, harmless and inexpensive. The
 material used costs less than five
 cents per test The test consists of
 the injection of a few drops of dipf-
 theria toxin between the layers of the skin of the arm.
 Diphtheria toxin should not be con-
 fused with antitoxin to toxin anti
 toxin. Antitoxin is the serum inject ed into person afflicted with diph- theria, Its purpose is to neutralize the . poison produced by diphtheria germs It is also used to furnish temporary immunity to persons exposed to- the . disease. Parents can protect their lch'dren asainst diphtneria by having ] the ssehick test made to determine ithe'r susceptibility and by having
 them irnmuaized with toxin antitoN- in when the Sehick test shows that they are not immune.
 This inforr7 ation should be giver careful thought by all health officers physicians, parents and teachers.

HEBREWS WILL OBSERVE
 THE FEAST OF LIGHTS

Chanukah the Feast of Dedication likewise known as the Feast of Lights, will be ushered in by the Jews on Tuesday evening, Deeenber< the six teenth,
 The festival lasts for eight days, in accordance with an old legend which states that a single cruse of undecided oil found in the Temple at the time of the rededication burned for eight days through the miraculous intervention of God. For this reason the kindling of the lights in the home and in the syna- gogue is the most distinguishing fea- ture of the festival. One candle is lit the first day. one the second day, and so on until eight are kindled on the last day of the feast. Special pray CTS and scriptural readings are re- cited in the synagogue. but the holiday is nevertheless regarded as a minor one because there is no injunction against labor on that day.
 In modern times the festival has assumed more and more the character of childrens celebration. a, period of great joy, marked by the playing of games and the recountMg of the great deeds of the Jewish heroes and martyr of the past.

POST OFFICE BUSY DAY

Saturday was a very busy day in the Norwich postoffice. The incom- ing and outgoing mails were heavy, the parcel post particularly so.. 1t was principally business mali and nothing noticeable in the way of hol- ;day mail.

A branch station will be opened in the Thayer building on Thursday to receive par eel post only and will continue until Dec. 23rd. Arrangements are made to addition of an extra receiving win care for all mailing promptly by the dow at the main office. It is hoped the patrons will exercise good judg- ment in preparing their parcels and not practice economy in strong paper and cords

/ s casts because of the evil deeds of their
 fathers. The tree that is narred at
 the root brings forth defective fruit; Ithetstream poisoned at it's source must yield polluted waters. So man, origin ally innocent, rarely intelligent, in
 elined to perfection, having wilfufly disobeyed the command of his Greater,
 became a changed creature, his intel- lect darkened. his will weakened, his heart inclined to evil.
 While this has been the heritage of 1 the race, there have been exceptions, las Holy Scripturs tell. The Catholic fehurch believes that the Mother of the Saviour was conceived without sin: John the Baptist was sanetffied in lhis mothers womb; so also was Jere- | mias the Prophet.

ADAM BELIEVED THE DEVIL.
 ORIGINAL SIN- PAINTS RACE

Facts and conditions in nature and
 in society prove the existence of what is called original sin. declared Rev.
 Myes P. Calvin, preaching at the high mass in St. Patrick s church
 Sunday. His sermon was in contin-
 uanee of series on the Works of God in Creation, its theme the judgment of the Creator following the sin of
 our First Parents, when Adam had be- lieved the devil rather than God, hence had disebeyed his Maker. That all nations concede this fact of the heredity of original sin is proven by I their rites of purification following birth.
 That humankind should inherit this taint from Adam, while it seems strange is borne out in analogy, How often are innocent children made out
