DIR. ALBRIGHT
MAKES STATEMENT
REGARDING "FLU"

want to reply to the following
local in last weeks Advocate
No Flu Says Baptist Institute.
Last week two girls had a little
cold and sore throat but with the
agency of a few pills they soon
got all o. k. and are attending
their classes. We have no flu
here and hope to remain in the
best of health. -
This is a false statement writ
ten by someone not informed in
diagnosis of contagious diseases.
| was called to the B. B. |. on
Jan. 2S to see two young ladies.
| found them sick and suffering
with typical cases of influenza.
One of the young ladies against
my orders was taken to her home
in the country which was a viola
ton of Health Laws. Her faith
err informed me she was still very
sick when he came to consult me
on Saturday, February 7th.
AS Health Officer | am trying
to protect the health of the peo-
pie, and keep under control cpl.
denies of contagious diseases.
Therefore,
ask the Principals of all the
schools to report to me all conta-
gious diseases found in their
schools where a physician is not
called in.
We now have influenza in our
town in an epidemic form. Quite
a number of students at Union
College have been reported by
their physician. Hi-Land Park
has an epidemic of influenza and
one case of small pox with seven
teen exposures.
l want to ask the Heads of
schools and families of the city to
cooperate with me in stamping
out contagious diseases. A Health

without the cooperation and as
sistance of the citizens.

CH|NK STUDENTS ID BAN GERMANY,
 FRANCE FAVORED

PARIS.-Chinese students of both sexes are expected to come to France at the rate of 5000 to coco a year during the next two years. This influx is ascribed to the fact that the Chinese are no longer at tracted by German universities or Japanese colleges. owing to the war and the Chinese national feeling over the Shantung affair. Another reason for their choice of France is that the United States imposes restrictions upon Chinese immi- grants.
 This affords France an unique opportunity to shape the careers of those destined to be the nucleus of industrial and intellectual China of tomorrow. French transportation companies are offering the Chinese cheap rates of transportation 70 bring them to France.
 About 1000 young Chinese are already in France studying the mod ern scientific methods of industry, finance, commerce, and agriculture
 American sympathizers, including Madame IIugues Le Roux, Mrs. Her man Duryea, and Mrs. William As tor Chanler, have provided tent as an organization center for the new arrivals.
 These Chinese have vowed to live cleanly and frugally and to abstain from gambling and opium smoking.
 Two lS-year-old girls are pioneers of their sex among the students. They arrived recently claid in tailor made gowns Scores more Chinese girls are expected to follow.

DESTITUTE SAILORS ARE
 SENT HOME FROM MANILA

HONOLULU, T. H.--Ill and des- titute American sailors in Manila are being sent back to the United States by the insular collector of customs, all American ships leaving for the Pacific coast being compelled to transport limited number of these seamen, says the Manila Bull letin.
 Heretofore such needy sailors had been returned to America aboard army transports, but lately the trans ports have been too crowded to un- dertake the work.
 To prevent Manila from becoming the dumping ground for discharged American seamen, says the Bulletin, requests will be made of the con- sulates at Hongkong, Shanghai, Sin gapore and other Far Eastern ports that they send their destitute sailors home direct.

CLEVER SCHEMES
 ID FILTER BONDS

WASHINGTON, D. C.-New and clever schemes for inducing the in, vesting public to part with it's say ings, it's Liberty bonds and War Savings Stamps in exchange for worthless stocks or those of specu- lative or doubtful value constantly are being developed. One of the latest of these was disclosed recent lly in the trial of Ellsworth !. Green and his son, E. H. Green, of Oklahoma City.
 This particular scheme was the means of landing the Greens in Leavenworth prison for five-year terms, but not until many hundreds of investors had lost their savings.
 The Greens, through the Great Western Guarantee Investment com pany of Oklahoma City, promote 1 five oil companies. The original sale price of the stock in these com panies was $l a share, but by a clever resale agreement, purchasers were guaranteed that the Great Western company as fiscal agent would resell the stock if desired at the end of six months to net the investor $2 a share, or a profit of 100 percent.
 As the date to fulfill this agree. ment drew near, stockholders were advised that the price of the stock had reached S5 share. Naturally if they came to believe the stock was worth S5 they declined to ac- cept the opportunity to sell for s2.
 For a time stock salesmen reaped rich. commissions, but finally rumors that the reports were misleading be- gan to spread, and at company banquet at Oklahoma City, it was charged, the Greens attempted to sell out to the salesmen. At this point the Government stepped in, arrested the promoters and began to unravel evidence which finally landed the Greens in prison on the charge of using the mails to de- fraud. Now the stockholders are attempting to save what is left of the assets of the companies.
 Promises of profits of 100 to 500 percent from stock promoters seldom become realities. The country is being flooded with wildcat stocks of interruptions promoters. The resell plan of the Greens is only one of the many varieties of bait used. Any of these promoters are willing and anxious to take Liberty bonds or War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certificates in exchange for their bits of paper. They are per fectly willing to give a promise of profits for the sure payment guar anteed by the Federal Government Investments in Government saving securities and Liberty bonds are safe, sure and profitable. The in vestor is not only guaranteed against loss, but he is assured that money so invested will help to solve the economic problems which all are facing, and in making the country greater and more prosperous, instead of seeing his savings go to provide luxuries and an easy living for dis honest promoters.
