SPENCER URGES
RAT DIFFERENTIATION
Public Health Service Official Calls
Attention to Need of Nation.

Capt. R. r. Spencer. Public Health
Service official in charge of anti
plague measures at Pensacola, urges
increased activity on the part of citi-
zens and officials. In a letter to The
Journal, DR.. Spencer outlines several
methods by which both rates and fleas
may be exterminated and asserts that
it is a comparatively easy matter to
get rid of both.
Capt. Spencer's letter follows:
Editor Pensacola Journal,
City.
| Dear Sir:
| The occurrence of three cases of
bubonic plague in Pensacola during
the past 10 days is believed sufficient
reason to again bring to the attention
| of the public certain facts regarding
the progress of the disease in this To-
cality and to emphasize the necessity
| of every one taking all precautionary
| measures.
| The three last cases have occurred
within a very limited area of the
city and in fact the infection in all
cases to date has been traced to a GER
tain we'll defined district.
The Public Health Service takes
this occasion to solicit the cooperation
OA SfCAy SiIlASu dllO III 50 uOlIS IDGT0
are four points that it is especially de-
sire to emphasize:
1. The value of general cleanliness
and sanitation was never more mark
edly demonstrated than in the obser-
walton made on the progress of plague
in Pensacola. The better and cleaner
residential districts of the city have
been free from human and rodent
plague. No infection is tracible to
those sections, while in every human
case there is ample evident pointing
to the same area in which plague ro-
dents have been caught.
2. 1t is within the power of every
individual householder and property
owner to quickly and effectually rid
their premises of rates if they will
only put forth the necessary effort.
3. Likewise, every householder can,
if he will, get rid of fleas. Numerous
reports have come to us from people
complaining that their premises were
infected with fleas. Scrubbing with
a mixture of water and kerosene in
doors, and sprinkling lime around the
premises and under houses will be
found very effective in getting rid of
rats.
4. Ninety percent of the rats are
cuaSnt around ana under grocery
stores, restaurants and other food de-
pots and it is a well-known fact that
the rodent population is absolutely
dependent upon the available food
supply. Therefore we would like ev-
cry citizen to ask himself if he has
food. garbage, or animal feed avail
able to rats.
Thanking you for the courtesy of
publishing this letter, I am
Respectfully yours,
r. r. SPENCER,
P. A. Surgeon in Charge Anti
Plague Measures.

HENDERSON DIVES
IN GALA ATTIRE

Lonny r. Henderson, messenger for
the American Railway Express Co,
made a dive in full attire at Bayview
last night on a wager. His stunt was
the feature of the evening at Pensa-
cola's popular amusement resort and
created especial merriment among the
group of navy yard and expressmen
with whom he was spending the eve
ming.
Mr.. Henderson jokingly offered to
dive off the springboard fully dressed
for two dollars. The sum was quickly
forth coming and Mr.. Henderson then
announced he would make the dive.
Clothes, he said, were coming down
in price, but he decided to make the
dive without getting his shoes wet and
so took them off
Among those present were: J. r.
Conley, Charles Britain, Daniel Lich-
enfield, c.. Cuneba and Percy Doster.

FATHER AND SON
DAY CELEBRATED
Club Tokens Presented to Ex- Members
Charles Hervey and Dick Carroll.

| Taking their own son or some other
Rotarian's son as guest at luncheon
| the Rotarians held a father and son
meeting yesterday at the San Carlos.
| A special program had been prepared
and included the early history of the
members of the club.
Each Rotarian was asked to state
| his ambition at the age of IL and
what caused him to later change his
ideal of manhood. Another question
each was asked was what instance
/ during boyhood days was remembered
as the most affectionate and each was
also asked whether or not the son
present at the meeting was a chip
off the old block" or did the boy take
after the mothers people.
The answers were amusing in many
instances and the hour brought back
many recollections and memories of
early childhood days of the members.
A slip was filed out by each of the
boys present on which was stated the
boys ideal of manhood and whether
or not he would make a better citizen
than was his father. These answers
will be filed and will be presented in
a meeting of the Pensacola Rotary
club 90 years from the present.
Tokens of good fellowship and es-
TEEN were presented to Rotarians Dick
Carroll and Charlie Hervey at the
meeting yesterday by the club, a
sapphire scarf pin being presented to
Charlie and a water set to Dick. These
members have resigned from the local
club, Mr.. Carroll having gone to New
Orleans as district manager of Swift
& Co., and Mr. Hervey having recently
sold the lease of the San Carlos to
the Newcomb interests.

ACT ON PLAN TO

Standards.

Plans for radical changes in the con-
struction of business buildings, dwell
ings and wharves are being drawn UP
by the United States Public Health
Service as part Of a nationwide cam
paign for rat determination, it was an
nounced today
Health officers from various states
and the larger cities, at a conference
in Galveston and Beaumont, Texas, to
study bubonic plague and rat eXter-
mination, recommended to Surgeon Gen.
eral Hugh S. Cumming that standard
specifications for rat proofing build
ings be drawn up by the Public Health
Service. These are to be furnished to
the different states and cities in order
that they may be incorporated in the
building codes throughout the country.
while bubonic plague is under con-
troll in this country, there will al
WAYS be scattered infection until the
rat can be exterminated," said sur
geon General Cummings. THE most
effective measure is permanent rat
prC ofing of al! buildings. Plans or
this may easily be incorporated in any
new construction. While the Public
Health Service can concern itself di-
rectly only with the problem of plague
there is an important e2Gn-
omic problem that enters into inns

LOW GRADE FUEL FUR
 LATE TYPE ENGINES

A short time ago the refiners of pe- trolcum products stopped the produc- tion of distillate, and as a result many engine users are wondering whether they will have to use high priced fuels such as gasoline.
 So-called gasoline" engines may properly be classified as light duty, usually ranging in size from F to 20 horsepower. and heavy duty, from 20 horsepower up, and should be consid- red separately in connection with a discussion of fuel supply. according 10 w. T. smith of Smith Hughes and company. agents for Fairbanks Morse and company, products.
 The light duty engines built more than five years ago can seldom be suc- cessfully operated on any other fuel than gasoline or distillate. Most of them. and also some makes which are still being sold. have battery ignition, and are of the Init and miss governor type. If you have one of these engines better stick to gasoline for fuel, as any saving in lower price will be more than offset by trouble in keeping the engine going. \ modern farm engine, how ever, such the Fairbanks Morse type
