Tractors Are Busy.

Reports from all parts of Audrain
county where tractors are owned state
that they are being driven night and
day without halt in order to get the
corn crop in before another rain. In
many instances farmers who own
teams as well as tractors are not using
the former because they can make so
much greater Roadway with the mech
anical horse.
If sayings are as true as some folks
say" they are M~exicoans can look
forward to a cool August and Septem-
Der. 1t is said that the first three
days of June foretell the weather for
| the next three months. June / was an
exceedingly warm day; and the two
following days delightfully."- cool. So
perhaps we may expect a hot July and
a comfortable August and September,

However, the steady trend Of

facture, sale and drinking Of
liquor. Poverty and insanity
are the twin childrens Of liquor
drinking. Vice and crime are

Of the courts and the other ex-

The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-11-11

When remembrances of the great de-
votion to duty by almost countless
Americans are uppermost in mind Just
now, it is distinctly Earring to read the
evidence in the shipping board inves-
tigation, telling Of graft, corruption,
padding of payrolls, rakeoffs and such
kindred evils. While our boys were
fighting and giving their life blood in
Europe a comparatively small group OF
people at home were seizing the oppor'
tunity to make money by foul means
off the exigency OF the situation The
two cases furnish the extremes OF
American citizenship.

ARMISTICE DAY.

To-day marks the second anniver-
sary of one of the greatest events IN
the history of the world. That event
was the formal recognition by Ger
many that its war of conquest was
ended unsuccessfully and that Ger
many was beaten on the field OF bat
tie and at home. The gray-clad hordes
which had swept proudly over France
and Belgium and, in fact, the greater
part of Europe, were in retreat, bat
tered, torn and more or less democrat
lied, the morale of the people at home
had been severely shaken by the un-
expected reverses of the supposedly in
vincible army. Nothing, seemingly,
could save the German army from fur
Their disastrous defeat and huge saeri-
fee of human life. Invasion of the ia =
therland lay just ahead, with all its
attendant reverses. For four years the
well prepared Germany had stood
off the great strength of the al
lies but was destined to be cut to
pieces. The jig was up. Germany was
forced to capitulate and she did so on
the memorable morning OF Nov. IL,
1918 That, then, is the event which
a considerable part of the world recalls
The part which the United States
played in the contamination of that
great downfall of a war-proud nation
has been recounted over and over. Can
did observers on the other side of the
Atlantic ocean, as well as on this side,
recognize that such a result could
scarcely have been possible had it not
been for the tremendous force which
the United States threw into the strug-
gle. Billions of dollars, millions of
men and thousands of ships had been
modified and made ready for the
fray. A part of the money, men and
men o war had already been utilized
prior to Nov. IL, 1918; but there was a
vast resource of money, men and men
o'war still remaining. Had Germany
elected to continue the struggle she
would have been beaten beyond all
hope of reviving in a number of cen
turtles. This is not said in a bosstful
spirit but in calm realization of the
tremendous preparations which had
been made by the United States for al
least another year of actual warfare
Already the American navy had aided
materially in locking up Germany''

Diphtheria.

The slogan keep your child at home
when he has sore throat used IN the
article on scarlet fever" is equally
applicable to diphtheria. This disease,
like scarlet fever, has a short period OF
incubation. /. e., it develops within
few DAYS after the infection was con
tracted. II your child is not immune
he will probably show some signs OF
the disease within from one TO seven
DAYS. usually from two TO five days
after exposure.
Unfortunately, the manner of its on
set and the type of diphtheria varies,
so that in mild cases it is not always
possible to saw that child has diph-
iberia in the beginning. In these cases
this cannot always be stated positive
lv until the secretion from the throat
and nose has been examined for the
germs of the disease. Hence, you can
sec the Importance, for the safeguard
ing of other susceptible persons, OF
keeping your child at home when he
has a sore throat, nasal discharge, ana
enlarged glands in the neck, even
though he does not seem to be really
i'll. He may be carrying with HIM VIZ
ulent germs, dangerous 10 the com
munity at large, and particularly SO
TO the children.
II is equally important for your
own child's safety that he not only
be kent at home when he has the
above mentioned symptoms but that
he also be kept quiet. The toxin,
or poison, Of diphtheria seems to have
a decided prediction for the heart and
nervous system, and sometimes for the
kidneys. In nearly all severe cases
there is some involvement OF the heart.
and a post -diphtheritic paralysis Is not
at all uncommon, the muscles Of the
throat being frequently affected.
The use Of antitoxin in diphtheria Is
now the recognized method, of treat
ment. II is important for parents TO
understand, however, that this, to be
most eficacious. must be administered
before the toxin, the poison secreted
bv the germs. has had a chance TO do
much damage. They will. therefore,
recognize the necessity Of having

possible. When diphtheria IL preva-

American army had turned back the

already the American spirit, fire ana
enthusiasm had reinforced the drop

galvanized them into almost superhh-

had exerted only a minor fraction CT
the force which it had available Tor the
grim purpose. So the candid observers
are ready to admit that Germany
showed the best Judgment OF her career
in formally acknowledging on Nov H.

came hard for the allies; II was not
unaccompanied by all the woes 10

Remember the morning of Nov, III,
lelsY What true American will ever
forget the thrill of the early morning
of that day as the news of German
surrender was flashed? Particularly
welcome was the news to the relatives,
loved ones and friends of the vast
force which was under arms and sched
uled to become part of the great war
machinery. The days of anxious wait
ing were ended; the boys were coming
home.

small red spot appears where the in
lection was made, remains from about
six to ten days and disappears gradu'
ally, leaving brownish spot which
may be seen for months. There are
usually no constitutional symptoms
and no pain.
By means of this test II is pos
sible to decide which persons are sus-
ceptible to the disease, and these can
be immunized by sntitoxin. The pro
cedure is applicable TO institutions
where diphtheria has been repeatedly
prevalent, and the object of immuniza
tion is to prevent possible outbreak
of the disease. In this case toxin anti

in his throat. He is then an unsuspect-
ed and perfectly innocent source OF
contagion.
Because of the danger of carriers
and mild, unrecognized cases, in any
instance where a case of diphtheria
has developed in family, institution
or school, every person who has been
exposed should have an examination OF
the throat and nose.
A valuable means of determining
ones immunity to diphtheria is found
in what is known as the Schick test,
This consists of injecting into the skin
small amount of the diphtheria tox-
in. If the subject is immune, no re-
action occurs. If he is susceptible,
