Organization as Clearing House
in Reconstruction.
Handle Cases OF Vocational
Training Among Ex-YaRks.
OTHER SOCIETIES TO AID
Bergen in Direct Charge of To.
peka Office.
VIII Be s.Information Bureau
for Service Men.

Clearing house methods of organiza-
ton will be used in handling cases Of
reconstruction work and vocational
training among eN-service men, Lieut..
Clifford II. Boyles, of the service and
information bureau of the war de-
partment, announced today, thru the
office Of John II. Bergen, adjutant for
the American Legion here.
Col. Mathew Smith is chief of the
department Lieutenant Boyles is rep
resenting. Boyles has headquarters at
the Baltimore hotel in Kansas City.
Under the new system any ex-serv-
ice man seeking whatever assistance
he may be entitled 10. will start di-
rectly at the office of the American
legion. All local public service or
ganizations have entered into the
scheme of the new system. A COM
mittee will be selected from all organ
izations SUCH as the American Red
Cross, the Military Sisterhood. Provi-
dent association, Public Health Nurs-
ing association. the city public health
department., the county health depart
ment and possibly other organizations.
Keep Record of Cases.
The work of the Legion will be to
what the man is entitled to and assist
him in getting his case into the PROPER
channels A case of temporary finan-
cial assistance might be handled thru
the home service section of the Red
Cross. or health work might be as
signed to the city public health or
county public health departments.
According to Lieutenant Boyles it
frequently happens that an eX-service
man imagines he can hasten results
in his case by appealing thru several
different organizations. The result is
a tangle of data eventually arriving at
one destination which takes about
twice as long to handle as if it had
been efficiently handled thru one
source, he points out.
Cases of vocational training and
reconstruction work among disa abled
ex-serviee men come properly within
the precincts of the American Legion.
All cases will receive attention wIfeth-
er or not the men are members of
the Legion.
Works for Legion Only.
John II. Bergen, adjutant, has given
up all other work and will now de-
vote all his time to the affairs of the
Legion. He will have plenty of time
Ito devote energy to cases of this kind
and will prove of valuable assistance
to ex-serviee men in assisting them
in whatever way they may need aid.
There are q thousand things that arise.
! in the lives of eX-soldiers, it is said.
during the transition period of COM
pIete oisconnection from the service
on which they desire information, as
sistance or advice. This work will
all come into the Legion office to be
handled by Adjutant Bergen, as a
clearing house for all cases. This
service, IS of course, without charge
to the applicant.
The consolidation movement came
after a period of general fncoherency
in which it became apparent that a
GENERALIZATION of efforts from some
central point was absolute neces-
sity, it is declared.

contentment were over that cottage
all the night. The next morning,
Christmas day. when they opened the
door they found blooming beside the

with dark green leaves. The father
plucked some and carried them within
doors, where they were faithfully
tended, and these flowers which grew
upon the spot where the holy Child
stood are the snow-white Chrysanthe-

MEASLES.

4AEAIHkollA-n5.
The first clear description of
measles was made by Rhazes, $50
1887 A. D. 1t is a very old disease and
was widely epidemic in the eighteenth
century. In highly civilized countries
measles has prevailed so long it would
seem that relative resistance has
been acquired. Measles generally
comes in epidemics.
In contrast with the malignancy of
scarlet fever is the comparatively be-
nign nature of measles, which is little
feared even by mothers. Measles is
an acute. highly contagious disease,
more widely prevalent than any of the
eruptiTe diseases. 1t is characterized d
by the excretion of great amounts of
mucus from the nose. running eyes,
inflammation of the air passa ges, by
a rapidly spreading eruption and fe-
YER
Few Escape Disease.
Very few persons reach adult life
without having had the disease altho
Madsen estimates that 4 per cent es-
cape. One attack usually confers a
protection against future attacks, but
Maiselis has collected a series of los
cases with a second attack. Third
and fourth attacks are unkpown.
The essential cause of measles is as
yet undiscovered. 1t is generally be-
Heved to be due to a germ. Exists in
the blood, tears, skin and secretions
of the lungs and nose. Transmission
is by direct contact with the patient
and rarely thru the third person.
Aerial transmission is common and
the most frequent means of transmits
sion is the school room.
~ Very young children do not contract
the disease SO easily. In fact, it is
very rare during the first five months
of life and becomes more frequent
after the first year. In an epidemic
reported by Smith and Dabney; 10
unprotected children between the ages
of 8 and Is years were exposed and
only escaped. In the Nursery and
Child's hospital during an epidemic.
there were 81 children over years
of age. Five. were protected by pre-
vious attacks and escaped while of
the remaining 81 children. So took the
disease. There were also in the insti-
tuition 113 children under years of
age and of this number rs per cent
took the disease. Altho a number were
exposed not only child under 6 years
of age contracted measles.
In an epidemic occu rxing in the
island of Guernsey, where the disease
had not prevailed for many years all
ages were affected; the youngest 70
days old; the oldest. a man and his
wife each aged 80 years.
Schawalbe reports a series of 69S1
cases with the ages as follows: First
five years 5e.4 per cent between 5
and 10 years. AZ per cent; between 10
and 20 years, So per cent; after 20
years, "a per cent.

neighborhood gathering.
The rear half the place had burned
down after the family upstairs had
ignored a defective fiue and tried to
burn trash in the furnace.
The next day we journeyed to a
family hotel. The first night we had
steak for supper, and each evening
thereafter it was mostly hash. That

300 TOPEKAhS BLUNDER
Send Checks to Water Department
without Explanation Attached.

Frank Stevens, cashier of the city
water and light department, has a lit
tie book on his desk that contains
names of 500 Topekans. who, during
the past year, have sent in checks to
pay their water bills with no bill or
any information whatever attached.
Sometimes the clerks are able, thru
reference to the telephone book and
the city directory and after much
trouble, to locate where the sender of
the check lives. Once. however, Stew
ems held a check for months. unable
to trace it. Then one day a lady
called him up and said she felt sure
she had paid a certain bill. He asked
her name. Yes, your check has been
lying on my desk for months" he said.
You merely sent the check without
any explanation as to what it was for"
When the new payment system goes
into effect, the first of the year, Stew
ems is going to draw a line on such
checks. When a lone check straggles
in, he is going to enclose 1t in an en-
velope, write the persons name and
city on the envelope and then trust
to Providence that it reaches it's proper

of that Christmas eve so long ago
when. the Christ Child came to the
cottage of a. peasant. asking for shelter
and food. The family was very poor
so the legend runs. The father
worked hard to get enough food to
fiH the many little mouths, and keep
the cottage warm and shoes on all
the feet. The night before Christmas
the meal was hardly any better than
on any, other night, and it was scanty
enough, yet each child gave to the
little guest a part of its own portion
and was pleased to see him eat it with
satisfaction. When the meal was
ended the Christ Child rose, his poor
garments became white. and a halo
glowed about his head.
