OBEY QUARANTINE.
BY H. ADDINGToN BRUCE,


There still are people, find, who
seem to take malicious delight in
breaking the quarantine rules of their
local board of health.
A contagious disease attacks a child

child out of school and Off the streets
for a certain period after its recovery
IRON the acute stage Of the disease.
This order Inconvenience them. They
denounce 1t as unreasona BILE And they
do not wait until the official lifting Of
the quarantine to send their little one
outdoors.
! Or if the disease is such as to require
quarantining not the stricken child
alone. but also all other members Of the
| family. they are even more incensed
Boldly or furtively, they disobey the
| health boards orders.
| Sometimes they think. 80 lightly Of
| their dfsobedience as to boast about it,
As reported in a recent issue Of the
| American Journal Of Public Health:
"A group of prominent citizens had
gathered for social occasion. Men and
women OF intelligence were there, and
honorable people, all Of them, or thought
they were.
During the evening the subject Of
quarantine was discussed-and how an
noying 1t is to be Guaranteed, and all
that. Then the little group or several Of
| avoided quarantine. They related with
merriment how each had fooled the
doctors and escaped from home and
gone about their business despite the
fact that some contagious disease was
| in the house.
'"They seemed to think it good joke
on the health officers that the card on
the front door didn't keep them from
! using the back door. Not one consid-
cred that he or she had done a dishon-
orable or a dangerous thing"
In extenuation it might be pleaded by
the educational ignoramuses of whom

the illness in their families was so

hold them to a rigid quarantine.

The virulence OF disease germs is not

set of individuals.
It might very well happen that that

tine must be accounted not simply q
foolish, but actually a wicked thing.
1t is quite possible for q single quar-

The sooner the public grasps this

Frontier-May Appeal for Volunteers
IBy Associated Pre~.l

Berlin, Sunday. Jan. 5--Polish troops
have occupied the station Of Chrosch-
mix, four miles from Bentschen. and
have sent an ulttmatm to the German
commander in the latter place, de-
manding that he surrender. The de-
mand has been refused and tho Ger
mans will defend Bentschen. at all
costs. according to the Tagcblatt.
Bentschen is town near the boun-
Diary between the province OF Poscn
and Brandenbers and is about forty
three miles southwest of Posen.
Capture OF Bentschen by tho Poles
would be most serious for all Berlin
and all Of northern Germany. It's loss
to the Poles would cut Communication
between Berlin and SIlasiA and would
endanger the provisioning OF Frark-
fort on the Oder and oil Of northern
Germany.
The cabinet completed its considerA.
tion of the Polish situation today and
directed the minister OF war TO take
the necessary technical steps to
strengthen the eastern frontier. When
preparations have been completed
which probably will be next week, the
cabinet probably will appeal to the
people to form a volunteer army to
protect the German borders.
