PERRY COUNTY ISOLATED
BY VARIOLA EPIDEMIC

An epidemic of smallpox that has
menaced five other counties will re-
suit in establishment of a rigid
quarantine against Perry County by
the State Board of Health unless con-
ditions are much improved by noon
tomorrow, DR.. A. t. Mccormack an
nounced late yesterday.
DR.. Mccormick said the epidemic
has been slowly but steadily gaining
in the last two months, and that
county authorities have ignored adj
monitions from the Board of Health
to take all possible precautions.
Following receipt of complaints
from Leslie, Harlan, Clay, Knott and
Laurel, adjoining counties, DR.. Nc
Cormack yesterday sent DR.. ]. /.
Whittenberg, State Sanitary Inspec-
tor, to Hazard with instructions to
quarantine the county against COM
munication with the outside world If
the epidemic is not abated Monday.
DR.. Whittenberg was instructed to
make the quarantine complete If he
deemed 1t advisable to quarantine at
all, and to stop all trains from receiv-
ing or discharging passengers any
where in the county, and stop auto
mobile or pedestrian travel in and
out of the county.
DIR. Mccormack said every resident
of the county must show a live vac
cination mark or be vaccinated over
again when DR.. Whittenberg arrives
at Hazard tomorrow.s

CHURCH GAINS SMALL

1t had been observed in most of the
churches during and after the war
that there was decided falling-off
in interest in religious matters. 1t
was harder than ever to get the men
to come to church, and even the wo-
men were running off after the false
gods and worshiping at the altar OF
mammon. Now the figures for Pro-
testant church membership for 1919.
just reported by DR.. H. X. Carroll
the statistician, confirm this unsatis-
factory situation.
The total increase in membership
in the Protestant denominations for
the year was only $4,000, against
an average increase in the last 10
years of nearly 100000. This was
the smallest increase in 80 years.
Some of the leading denominations
suffered the heaviest losses. Among
these were the Methodist. who lost
about 10000; Methodists South 49,
900; Northern Presbyterians $4,000;
Presbyterians South 5000; Disciples
$4,000; Northern Baptists 5000;
National Baptists $4,000; United
Presbyterians 5000; Cumberland
Presbyterians 1900; Norwegian Luz
therans 1900. etc.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATS
OUT FOR WET PLANK
Delegates Will Go To Convention
Prepared To Make Fight on
w. j. Bryan.

New York, April 16.--That the
New York State delegation to the
Democratic National Convention, to
be held in San Francisco, June 2S
intends to fight hard for a wet"
plank in the National platform was
made clear today when the Demo-
cratic State Committee met at the
Hotel Knickerbocker and reorganiz-
ed.
Although there was no open dis
cussion of national politics or can
didates, several of the members who
are delegates frankly stated after the
meeting that they would go to San
Francisco prepared to fight William
Jennings Bryan ito standstill'' on
the prohibition issue.
Not only will the New York Dem
ocratic leaders insist on liberal in
terpretation of the Volstead act to in
clude beer and light wines, and even
spurious liquors for medical and
other purposes if used in the home,
being incorporated in the platform,
but they will demand plank call
ing for referendum on the repeal
of the Eighteenth Amendment
Leaders are fully aware that such
a course will precipitate bitter fight
in the convention, but they maintain
that the party will go down to sure
defeat if it is not done.
Norman E. Mack, Buffalo, Nation
al Committeeman for New York,
voiced the sentiments Of a number of
the members of the State committee
when he declared he was for wet"
plank.
More sentiment was expressed by
members Of the committee for Mr..
McAdoo than for any other candi-
date. but it came principally from up
State members.
There was no hitch at reorganiza-
ton Of the State Committee. Chair

OPPOSE PROPOSED
ADVERTISING TAX

New York, April IA protest
against the Thompson bill, which
would impose a tax on advertisers,
was sent to the House Ways and
Means Committee by representatives
of the twenty-one departments Of adj
vertising who attended a meeting of
the National Advertising Commission
in Cleveland on April 1. The protest
was signed by w. Frank Mcclure,
chairman; Homer ]. Buckley, vice
chairman, and P. S. Florea, secretary.
1t declared the commission was op-
posed to the passage of the bill, "for
the reason that advertising is part
of craftsmanship and such a tax would
be in effect a tax upon selling and
would operate to reduce production
at a time when the government is do
ing everything in its power to en-
courage production"
Recognizing the value of the train
ing of prospective advertisers in adj
vertising and marketing in universe
ties, colleges, high schools and other
institutions, and believing that there
is an urgent need for general stand
ardization of prevailing methods and
instruction in this field, the Adver-
Using Commission directed its educa-
tonal committee to investigate this
matter, making plans which will re-
suit in an improvement of the pres
ent system. Charles II, Macintosh,
chairman of the educational commit
tee, and cooperating members, will
seek the assistance of all teachers
of advertisers.

Christianity into all the dark places
of the world was launched at Wash
ington by John ID. Rockefeller, Jr..
and his flying squadron" At a
dinner for 600 persons prominent in
the affairs of the church and the ma
ton, the program of the Interchurch
World Movement was explained
Former Secretary of State Lansing
presided and his first public appear
ance as a private citizen was greeted
with enthusiasm. Mr.. Rockefeller
explained that the movement is not
something above and beyond the
churches but the creation and the
servant of the churches. "The church
es are beginning to realize" he said,
"just as business men have done, that
competition is expensive and that in
this day cooperation is the only
method by which great things can
be done with economy and efficiency
The fatherhood of God and the bro
therhood of man formed the key
note of his talk.
Another speaker, DR.. John Mott,
the eminent social worker, said that
the expression, "self-determination,"
had evoked more hope and spread
more despair than any other phrase.
Mr. Rockefeller and his party repre-
sented so cooperating denomina-
lions and started tour of the prin-
cipal cities of the country in behalf |
of the movement. The first use to
be made of the money is to complete |
a church survey of the world Then
will follow a united program of
Christian work to save the world |
for Christ.

constipation, pains in the shoulders

of appetite, loss of sleep, and faint
ing spells. For weeks l could not
sleep on my back.
"One week ago; upon recommends
tion of friends who had tried the
l purchased one bottle OF
Tanlac and began taking it. Since
my second dose have suffered none
of these troubles to which l refer,
and really believe l am going to get
perfectly well and strong again.
Won't that be wonderful at my age?
Well, certain it is that Tanlac is

How Diphtheria is Contracted.

One often hears the expression, My
child caught severe cold which de-
veloped into diphtheria, when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particular suscep.
tible to the wandering diphtheria
germ. If your child has a cold when
diphtheria is prevalent you should
take him out of school and keep him
off the street until fully recovered, as
there is hundred times more dan
ger OF his taking diphtheria when he
has a cold. When Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is given it quickly
cures the cold and lessons the danger
of diphtheria or any other germ
disease being contracted. m
