Forest Fires We're Bad.

Fighting forest fires occupied the
attention Of large portion of Villas
county's population all last week.
They were especially dangerous in
the vicinity of the Jackson and Gabe
resorts, the villages of Sayner and
Star Lake and west of Conover. No
loss of buildings is reported but a
large amount of young timber was
badly injured as it was very dry and
a high wind in operation most OF the
time. Ample rainfall this week has
put out the fires much to the relief
of every one.
Invariably, such fires originate by
getting away from some one who is
clearing land and burning brush and
stumps. This is necessary to do of
course, but it should be done with
regard to the welfare of others al
ways, and especially when as dry as
it has been this spring. To set fires
then Without making ample provis-
ion for keeping them under control,
constitutes the grossest negligence,
and the law provides heavy penalty
for doing so, and If the law was en-
forced more rigidly, a marked de-
crease in forest fires would be no.

Safest

Reports from several parts of the
state indicate that more than the
usual number OF cases Of smallpox is
occurring this spring Any number
at all is more Il an should occur be-
cause IL there is one disease in which
we have an easy means Of prevention,
that disease is small poX.
hundred years ago, smallpox was
an exceedingly common disease, caus-
ing as many deaths as does consump-
tion today. Pock marked faces were
so common that the absence of scars
was noted as a means of identitica-
tion of escaped prisoners and other
missing persons.
!. Jenner's discoverysof vaccination as
a means of preventing the disease
was begun by reports from dairying
district in England that persons who
had been accidentally infected by
cowpox escaped smallpox. Inasmuch
as coWpox was relatively a mild dis
ease, Jenner deliberately infected per-
sons with it as a protective against
the deadly smallpox.
In most contagious diseases an indi-
vidual has to depend for his personal
protection largely upon the care of his
sick neighbors and friends to protect
him. In the instance Of smallpox lie
has, in vaccination, the means prac-
tically In his own hands Any unvac-
cinated person who sickens from this
disease has nobody but himself or
his personal guardians to blame.
Some of the most advanced health
officers and sanitarians have gone so
far as to suggest that al public and
police regulations in respect to this
disease should be suspended, because
nothing that quarantine can accom-
plish in the way of prevention offers
what vaccination does. Until the pub
lie, generally, has had the opportuni-
ty Of thoroughly understanding the
truth about vaccination, few respon-
sible officials would have The courage
to put their theoretical suggestion
into effect. In the meantime people
who do understand should not take
chances they can SO easily avoid by
being vaccinated. Health Bulletin.

Hold Your Liberty Bonds.

The United States government bor-
rowed money from you to finance the
war. You hold the governments
promise to pay you back. This prom
Use is called Liberty Bond or Vic
tory Note. On this bond is stated the
conditions under which the govern
ment borrowed the money from you.
For instance: If you hold bond of
the Third Liberty Loan, it states that
on April 18th and October 18th of
each year until maturity, you will re-
ceive interest on the amount you paid
for the bond. Other issues bear other
rates of interest and other maturity
dates, all of which are clearly stated
on the bond.
Now, if you keep your bond until
the date when the government pays
you in full for it, you do not need to
worry if, in the meantime, the price
is low one day or high the next. You
and Uncle Sam are living up to your
agreement with each other, and
neither will lose by it,
On the other hand, if you sell your
Liberty Bond now, you will dnd that
the man you sell it to will not give
you dollar for every dollar you paid
for it. The price has been brought
down because so many people are
offering to sell their bonds. If the
market is flooded with tomatoes, you
