WHO owns THE RAILROADS?
from I.eslie's)

IRWIN A<NSlaG o.
Some people seem to think that
government ownership of railroads
would mean the wrestling OF the
roads from the hands of a few mill
lioraircs. Nothing could be further
from the facts. The Pennsylvania
railroad has recently reached a new
high record in the number OF stock
holders. August the aggregate
number was 1925, this being an In
crease Of more than 5000 In q year.
The average holding is now 50 shares
as against .4o6 shares two years ago
The railroads OF the country have
over million shareholders, the num-
Der about eoualing the number OF en-
poyes. yet the latter under the Plumb
bill would take ever properties they
do not own. Railroad security hold
ers represented by insurance COM
panies and thnir policy-holdars and
savings banks and their depositcr ag-
Eregate 100000 persons. None OF
the great corporations, not even the
packers, ore owned by . few. They
are managed by few, which % es-
sential II they are to be well man
aged. but the holders OF their sccuri-
ties are to be found In every village
and hamlet In the land.

The county superintendent
has visited several schools since
last writing. Among the white
schools visited are: Fisher, Fitz-
hugh, Simpson, South School,
Shiloh, Parks, Red Bed, White
Church, Monroe, Valley Grove
and Lawrenceville. All the
schools were in session except
the South School, which had
been closed before the session
was ont without notifying the
superintendent. Many improve
ments have been made since
last winter. Supplementary
readers are being used in a num-
Der of schools; some have sesured
shades and screens for the win
dows; and a few have arranged
to keep the hogs an geese from
wallowing in the mud puddles
around the pumps.
In some of the schools consid-
cradle preparation for the Fair
is being made; in others, very
little has been done toward get
ting ready for the Fair. 1t is
just another month until time
for the Fair, and every school
desiring to make a creditable
showing must be up and doing.
The entry blanks are ready, and
will be sent to schools asking
for them. The best exhibits of
our County Fair will be taken
to the State Fair. In 1912 Mon
roe County took first prize for
best class exhibit at the state
fair, and we must not fall short
of first place this time. f'b5

State Board Of Health
Adopts Regulations

More than year ago, on March 9Th,
1918, the Executive Committee of the
State Board of Health passed formal
Regulations Governing the Control Of
Venereal Diseases In this State. These
regulations have since been amended.
so that now the legislation required
for the control of these diseases in
this State il sufficient for all purs
poses. and a Lack Of authority can no
longer be offered as an excuse for any
laxity in the protection Of the public
health from the inrosds of these dis

In the first place. the power Of the
State Board Of Health to make rules

And Section 2611 OF the same Code,
declares that violations Of any rule
or regulation Of the State Board Of
Health constitute q misdemeanor, and
are punishable BY fine or imprison-

The Board of Health Regulations
governing the control Of these dfs-
eases are adequate for the needs Of
the work. Az stated In previous ~

druggists or vendors Of patent rem

diseases are required to report to the
State Board of Health patients and
purchasers OF these remedies, and the
responsibility Of the reporting Of these
cases is fixed upon physician and
