He points out that everywhere in
malarial countries the disease breaks
out just at the time when the soil is
broken for planting. He does not
deny that the anopheles mosquito
spreads malaria, but he says this is

The old theory that malaria was
caused by the bad air Of swampy dis
tricts or by certain emanations from
the soil may be correct, after all.

 The session was enlivened by songs in which the club was led by Roy M Kemp, with accompaniment by Prof L. J. Kueck and Miss Naomi Smith.
 MT.

 At this point, Governor Cox pre- sented the list of 51 large cities and, he said, the allotment would be 31 cents per capita for each man, wo- man and child of their 25,5OO, ,O0O population.
 "The sum of ss,145,OO is to come not from 27 states, but from the largest cities in 27 states," he said, "New York state is represented by only four places, New York City. Buffalo, Rochester and Albany, and in this connection, Franklin D.. Roosevelt announces that the county of Duchess, suburban and rural community, was assessed $32, ,OO0. But let us see whether the quotas placed on the larger cities, were exceeded. Again, we come for proof to the off eial bulletin, which, under date of August 10, says:
 Boston, Mass, had ninety per cent attendance at an organization meeting August 4. This is an excel lent record for a hot day. Real in- terest aroused, Senator Weeks inspir- ed them with an understanding of the situation and they agreed to pro duce!
 "That they did produce is proved by the bulletin of August 10, when telegrams received that day were published.
 Among others we see the follow l ing: Metropolitan Boston wills to contribute more than 25O per cent of the original quota, which would turn the Boston fund from $3OO,O00 to $75O,OOO.
 "The Columbus, Ohio, quota is $1c0,OOO, and in this connection in the bulletin of August 10, telgeram from Columbus is inserted, carrying these reassuring words.

BRITISH ARE KICKING.

In the British parliament last
week the government was sharply
questioned about $I5OO,00O British
money expended in Paris during
the conference. The official inter
rogated explained that five hotels
had been leased to entertain the
british employees and that America
expended even more with but one
hotel leased. one of the members
retorted that champagne, bands
and dances had cost much and that
the conferees and their employees
could have done better for their
country by going to bed early and
having clear heads next day.
A retort;, ooh, we did the thing
rawther well don't you know"
brought jeers from the house.
When anybody in the American
congress refers to the 1900 people
and the $1,50O.000 they expended
of good United States money, desire
to injure Wilson is charged as the
motive. But in England, don't you
know, the folks are tired of royal
extravaganza, which those respon-
sible for it belttle by saying an
American republic spent more in
putting on a poorer show.

Madame Roland was one of thu

And as is often the case with those
who blush, her complexion was
one of exquisite freshness. You

Opaque compilations seldom blush
or if they do experience the phys-
cal act of a blush that blush never
comes TO the surface. OF Madame
Roland's blush it was said that her
fresh complexion responded TO
every emotion of a passionate ma
lure"
Lest you think that the man who
bushes thereby forfeits all his
claim to admiration from the fair
sex, just remember that Shelley
continued through life to blush
like girl and Shelley. you know,

DEMING COMES CLEAN.

Two municipal tickets were NOM
mated at Deming-five men in IA
vor of passing an ordinance against
gambling and five supposed to be
opposed to that program. Deming
is almost 100 per cent democratic
in politics and there was no Issue
except as to gambling. SO the ten
gentlemen who wished to avoid n
community row got together and
made an agreement for five to
withdraw from the contest. A
stipulation was entered into that
an ordinance against gambling,
which was repealed by the present
city council. would be re-enacted
and not repealed or amended dur
ing the next two years without the
consent of the five men who with
drew and recommended support of
the other quintet. This was wise
for two reasons: First, it shows
that Deming desires not to invite
evil to continue; and second, be-
cause it is better for a community
TO have harmony instead of frac-
tional discord about local affairs.

HOW MUCH is ENTHUSIASM?

Some grains Of salt must be al
lowed for the inventors enthusiasm
in the prophecy of Guglielmo Mar
conf that 1920 will witness the end
of all telephone communication eX-
cept that by radio.
The wireless inventor claims that
the time has arrived for sCrapping
all existing systems of communica-
tion-including the much beloved
telegraphic code--to give full scope
to radio operations.
Ocean cables and overhead wires,
he glowngly declares, will be old
fashioned and out of use after this
year and only radio communica-
lions employed, but cautious citi-
gems will not order their telephones
removed until served with more
information and a new apparatus

least as satisfactorily perhaps not
then.
Recent mprovements in instru-
mcnts for radio telephone COM

type but those who remember the
development of the existing tele-
phone system know that great
changes do not appear within one
calendar year. IF Marconi has
radio system completed and tested
which will compete in every sense
with, or prove superiority to pres
ent mechanism for telcphOning and
telegraphing, he will receive well

But that 1920 will see a junking
of everything in the line of public
communication systems is some

fidence and credulity.
