at work by that department during
the past eighteen months. The mum

during that period was Al, ,99s, showing
that nearly three-fourths OF the appli-

Director Doherty received this morn

filled out and mailed on the "Levia-

the returning soldiers, where they
were formerly employed and indlcat-
ing whether they were in need OF
work. These cards were handed to
the Bureau Of Returning Soldiers and
Sailors and preparations are being made
to care for these men as fast as they
apply for work.
The Rev. w. A. Vrooman, who is in
charge Of this branch Of the work,
said this morning, that Of the total OF
cards received about 400 Of the men
were in need of jobs, but that he did
not anticipate much difficulty in plac-

types of pneumonia germs, were

1t does not appear that there is
full agreement as to the results Of
such preventive inoculation. Never
theless, there is good deal of evil
dence to suggest that such vaccines
have value. According to one re-
Port, where mixed vaccine was
used, the average incidence of in
tuenza and pneumonia in the group
:nocu.ated three times is about one
third that Of the uninoculated
group Moreover, the av..oge
mortality rate in the group inocu-
lated three times is about one-ffth
that of the uninocu!ated. A definite

tlon seems to be afforded to those
who took only one or two inocu-

Here, then, was an epidemic,

some of the traditional plaques of

Of this extraordinary visitation?
"The answer appears to be that
he can tell us practically nothing.
1t is true that an organism is known
% which the name influenza bacillus
has been given. This organism is
also known as the bacillus of tfeif-
fer, the name of its discoverer. The
discovery was made almost thirty
years ago, soon after the influenza
epidemic of 1889. The causal rela-
tiop of this microbe to influenza
was SUPPOSED to be established. But

oil on marshes to kill mosquitoes be-
came clear when the larva Of mos
quito was seen under the micro
scope. The mosquito takes this
form before it gets its wings and
sallies forth to nibblc on the hard
working Jersey commutcr The
larva dwells in the water and hangs
suspended, with the tip of his tail
resting slightly above the surface
Of the water. This tip is the outlet
Of tube that conveys air to his
breathing apparatus. BY spreading
oil on the water the tube becomes
cloggcd and the mosquito, unable to
get air, speedily dies.
Under the heading Of botany came
series of exhibits that outnum-
bercd any other single group in the
exhibition. These are the diatoms,
u, as they are often called, "the
,ewels of nature" These tiny plants
occur in ali parts of the globe, from
the Polar seas to the tropics, in both
fresh and salt water.
Under the microscope the diatom
is indeed a jewel. Occurring in an
inhnitude of designs and shapes they
present q picture of minute lowell
ness that is seen nowhere else in
nature. These little plants, many
times smaller than the point Of
needle, have thousands of dots anG
lines, laid out in regular patterns on
the surface Of the shcll-like body.
IN several varieties the lines run
100000 to the inch. Each Of these
Zines is clearly seen under the micro
scope though the diatom Itself is in
visible to the naked eye.
Many Of the members Of the
Mcroscopical Society study nothing
else but dlatoms. One member has
perhaps the finest library in the
country on the subject, numbering
several thousand volumes; and in his
exhibit were photographs made

family physician, who will be the
lest Judge OF your general condition
and probable susceptibility.
Such a consultation should be
made promptly, in any event, should
any symptoms suggestive of influ-
onza develop. One lesson of the epi-
demic is that no layman who is at
tackled with influenza should attempt
&c treat himself. Medical science
has at present no cure for the
malady, but the physician is surely
the best judge as to what hygienic
and other measures are calculated TO
aid Nature in fighting the original
invasion, and-what is even more
lmportant--in minimizing the proba-
hility Of the development of pneu-
monia as disastrous sequel.
Perhaps We are justified in as
sumlng that practically all individu-
MS who escape during such d pan
-slnlc as that Of last winter have
measure Of immunity, inasmuch as
he virus is obviously very widely
nd generally disseminated. That
Yould be equivalent to saying that
bout three persons out of four in
he average community are insus-
eptible to an average invasion of
ae germs of influenza.
Making application Of our
0owledge of contagious maladies
General, we may fairly assume. /
ink, that such immunity, partial
complete, is somewhat closely
rrelated with the individuals gen
al condition Of bodily health. 1t
probable that a measure of spe-
ic immunization results from an
tack of the malady. But quite

vaccine it is possible to rob nflu-
enza of some of it's perils.' More
over he believes that by the use of
a newer type of vaccine, in which
the germs are suspended in oil $50
called lipo-vaccine), it will be pos
slble to increase materially both the
degree Of protection and the dura-
ton of immunity.
ut is true that other observers
take 81 less optimistic view OF the
probable benefits Of the preventive
vaccine as ut present developed.
1t must be recalled, however, that
it is always peculiarly difficult to
prove the value Of a preventive
measure.
"Of course it must be admitted
that the endeavor to make ii vaccine
against influenza is complicated by
lack of precise knowledge as to the
causal agent. The material used
for making cultures must contaia
this -gent, we may well suppose; but
we have no way of proving that the
culture medium is one in which thi
particular germ can grow; so the
vaccine ultimately used may no.
contain the influenza virus.

existing conditions, that the grea
mass of the population will seek III,

The microscope can detect adulter
aticns in food products that are un-
discoverable by other methods. Ii
connection with this an interesting
story was told about the ground
g.ass" scare that developed during
the war. There We're reports from
different sections Of the country thai
certain canned foods contained
ground glass. 1t was suspected tina
TINS was the work Of German agents
and samples of the foods were sen
to Washington. The usual analytical
methods throwing no light on the
sub. ect, some one suggested thac
they be examined microscopically.
This was done and the ground
glass" turned out to be a harmless
hard crystalline potash salt that
sometimes forms in canned foods.
OF course, tie part that the micro
scope has p aged in the medical fielG
is well known. At the exhibition
were numerous exhibits of microbes
and germs. The Board of Hea IT,
showed the spinal meningitis germ
and this attracted crowd through.
out the evening.
