The Tunisian Posts.

service covered the distance between
Tunis and Susa up to 1868. and then II
was extended to Sfax. The distance
between Tunis and Susa-a dangerous
journey over not too easy country
was performed in "a hours and ut one
stretch. Only once was the Tunis

Foundations Nearly Complete.

Only 400 cubic yards more of con-
crete to be poured and $50 yards OF rock
to be excsvated, and the foundations
of the Skowhegan power house of the
Central Maine Power Company will be
completed. This was the report OF the
engineers OF the company on Monday,
July IL, and it means that by the end of
this week the first of the steel beams for
the superstructure should 20 in place.
From that point, the construction
work will proceed rapidly. As soon as
the beams are up the cast stone and
bricks will be put in place and the build
ing will grow noticeably day by day.
Work has been started on the new
cofferdam inside which part Of the new
dam will be constructed. The new dam
will run directly from the end of the
power house to the south shore OF the
river.
For the frs, time since the job started

Not RESPONSIBLE.

responsible for any damages done by
any Of his children while they are using
the automobile for pleasure, without
biz knowledge, provided the children In
question are competent to drive the car.
This 10 the decision Of the law court,
recorded In rescript just handed down.
This decision was made In the case OF
John T. Pratt, who brought suit against
George A. Cloutier of Augusta for dam
ages sustained as the result OF collision
between Mr.. Pratt's car and one owned
BY the defendant and driven by bis son,
David Cloutier.
The case was tried in the Superior
Court of Androscoggin county and the
verdict was for the defendant, the jury
finding that the question of master and
servant did not exist between Mr.. Cloutier
and his son at the time Of the accident.

T. B. on the Decrease.

The past year which was marked with
lessening death rate for nearly ell
communicable diseases, shows q further
encouraging sign in the phenomenally
low figure of tuberculosis deaths In
Maine during the past twelve months.
The total of deaths for tuberculosis in
all forms in Maine during 1919 was but
7S9 of which 63S were of the pulmonary
type. Just how markedly downward is
the tendency of this "white plague" can
be shown no more strikingly than by
quotation of the figures for 1892, the
year when Maine was first admitted to
the federal registration area, and the
first recorded statistics were made. For
that year there were 1913 tuberculosis
deaths of which 1852 were pulmonary.
These figures indicate that the disease
has been reduced practically one half In
the last % years and brings the hopeful
message of still further reduction which
can be safely predicted for the future.
Here again, thinks the Maine Depart
ment of Health, is potent example of
the tremendous efficiency of public
health work, both local and state wide.
Public education along the lines of

medical scientists and Investigators Ia
responsible in large measure for these
encouraging facts regarding the tuber-
culosis situation. No more hopeful sign
of the times, from the viewpoint of pub
lie health, can be imagined than the
steady lowering of the tuberculosis
death rate. 1t was in 1912 that the
number of T. B. deaths first fell below
1000, never to exceed that number again,
and the decrease in the last decade has
been uniformly steady except in 1918,
the influenza year, when an increase by
fifty deaths was recorded. This year IS
figure of 7S9 Is indeed record breaker.
Pulmonary tuberculosis which is by
far the most prevalent type, has followed
closely the record of the general figures
of the past quarter century, and this
year for the fret time numbered less
than 100 deaths, having dropped almost
an entire hundred, from 721 to 63S in
the past year.

FINE LACES MADE BY SQUAWs
New Industry on Indian Reservations
Said to Be Bringing Independence
and Happiness.

AS one associates lace making with
deft fingers, 1t is hard to realize that
the Stoical squaw has the necessary
digital equipment for this work. But
In the Indian reservations In the far
and middle West lace making Is prov
ing means toward economic indie
pendence for the Indian woman, the
New York Tribune states.
1t was through a deaconess Of the
Episcopal church that lace making was
introduced to the Indian. Until then
squaws Of the first Americans had not
engaged In the decorative arts except
to make beaded garments for their
braves. In 1890, however. the first les
son In lace making was given to OJib-
way squaws near Duluth. Bishop
Whipple of Minnesota. one Of the pio-
neer missionaries Of the Episcopal
church among the redskins, early real
lied that the solution of the Indian
problem lay In making the Indian self
supporting.
So successful were these efforts
that today lace schools are maintained
on ten reservations. Their exquisite
examples in cutwork. needlepoint and
bobbin lace have received gold medals
at five expositions, and today the
squaw, without neglecting her house
hold duties, can earn from $75 to 500
a year.
To encourage Just such activities
among the Indians will be one Of
the purposes of the nationwide CAM
paign Of the Episcopal church. But
to give economic independence to the
sQuaw has not been the only accom-.
plishment Of the introduction Of lace
making on the Indian reservations. 1t
has not only taught industry, but It
has brought about cleanliness.
A report Of the Sybil Carter Indian
Lace association, named for the dea-
coness who introduced this work.
records that this industry has trans
formed the lives of Indian women I'M
dertaking 1t. They can readily be
distinguished from the others by their
neat appearance and bright and hope
full faces.
A similar impression was obtained
by United States senator. who re-
ported that he had never seen hap
pier lot of women. They not only
worked steadily" he said, 'but actu-
ally laughed and chatted together, in
strong contrast to the apathetic and
hopeless squaws whom Bishop Whipple
called upon Deac0ness Carter to be-
friend" It is planned also to revive
the old-time arts Of beadwork and bas-
kerry.
The association has prominent
shop In New York. where the sales of
Indian work amount to about $4,000
annually.
