1 Few of us escape measles-it is one of the commonest of child hood diseases. Every mother knows the symptoms, but the
 mistake that most mothers make IS in failing to realize that the child is not fully recovered after the eruption and fever disappear. The air passages are still inhamed and if this inflammation is not cleared up, the air passages may be weakened, thus paving the way for pneumonia or serious disease of the lungs.
 ! Nightly applications of Vick' s iVapoRub will aid nature in relieving this inflammation. Be- cause Vicks acts locally by stim- f11ation thru the skin to draw out the inflammation, attract the blood away from the congested spots and relieve the cough. In addition, the medicinal ingre- dients of Vicks are vaporized by the body heat. These vapors are breathed in all night long,

Washburn next year should have
little trouble in walking away with the
honors- Not a first string man is
graduated or is limited by play next
season. If this mighty Ream squad
is together again it looks like another
year of honors to the Blue.
Washburn has gone thru the most
gruelling schedule of any team in the
Kansas conference this year. The
first game of the year was with the
Nebraska Cornhuskers at Lincoln.
This was lost after the Ichabods out
played the Nebraskans in the first
quarter. The score was x to 0. The
next game was with Kansas university
at Lawrence. Here the Ichabods lost
6 to 0 after a bitter struggle.
Then came the schedule in the KAN
sas conference. 1t was an admitted
fact all over the state that the slogan
Beat Washburn" was adopted from
the time the team came out for the
preliminary practice until the day of
the game. Washburn played every
game in the conference against teams
that had been pointed to its style of
play. Every team lined up against
the Ichabods was coached to crush the
Blue plays following the continual
visits of the coaches to the scene of
Washburn games. And the Topekans
did not lose a game.
