HEALTH REGULATION
At the behest of the State Board c

AT the behest of the State Board of
Health the Wood County Health
Officer, DR.. Powell, has made the fol-
lowing regulations on school attend
ance: All pupils who are sick or
have acute sore throat must stay out
of school. In homes where there are
measles, German measles, whooping
cough or chicken pox, if the patient is
kept isolated from the rest of the
family, the other children who have
had the disease may go to school. In
cases of diphtheria, if the patient is
isolated, other children who have taken
anti-toxin may go to school. In cases
of scarlet fever and influenza other
children may go to school if the pa
tient is isolated. 1t has been found
that these diseases are not carried in
the clothing to another person.

hearts. The children loved him and
his empty cage in our room makes us
anxious that another bird shall come
there to live.
The children have freely brought
their gifts that the kindergarten may
buy another bird to take its place. If
there are those who feel the sorrow of
the kindergarten enough to send gift
in sympathy we shall be very grateful.

ARE YOU A TARGET FOR
INFLUENZA?
1t Hits Listless, Rundown People
First-Their Blood Is Thin.
GERMS EVERYWHERE IN
EPIDEMIC
Be rcparcd--Strength and Build
Up Your Blood with Pepto-
Mangan.

If it is true that you are not feeling
your best-if you have that always
tired" feeling and no interest or enthu-
'siasm-then you should be careful of
the influenza.
1t is thin-blooded, anemic people
that disease strikes first. The fact
that you have had very few serious
illnesses has nothing to do with it.
Everyone gets run down occasionally,
and when they do the blood is in no
condition to fight off disease germs,
because it has not enough red cor
Ipuscles. 1t is the red corpuscles of the
blood that fight disease and save you
from sickness.
You simply can't afford to take
chances when influenza is striking
down thousands everywhere. Fortify
your blood-build it up with the pleas
ant tonic Pento-M -Mangan.
And should you be just recovering
from influenza, you need Pepto-Man-
gan because your blood has exhausted
it's strength. Pepto- Mangan will help
build you up.
Pepto-M -Mangan is widely and heartily
endorsed by physicians. 1t is effective
and easy to take. Comes in either
liquid or tablet form. No difference in
medicinal properties.
Sold at any drug store. But be sure
you get the genuine Pepto-M -Mangan-
"Gude's." Ask for it by the name and
be sure the full name is on the pack

OLD LIBRARY TO Be
USED AS CLUB ROOM
Leslie II. Arthur Post American
Legion Meets Tonight To Consider
Leasing Old Library Building
For Headquarters.

A very important meeting of the
Leslie H. Arthur Post American
Legion will be held at the old Public
Library building in Sutton street this
evening. The chief business to come
before the legion at toniglt's meeting
will be the matter of leasing this
building for use of the Legion and all
soldiers as a club room,
The need of such a club room has
been felt very much by the Legion
since its organization. Ever since the
organization was perfected the office
of members has been used as tie meet
ing place. The members have also felt
the need of place where all returned
soldiers may meet to spend the eve-
ming, where they may read, play
games or enjoy dancing
The Old Public Library is well suit
ed to such club as it has before been
used as club house by the Terpsi.
chorean Club.
1t is understood that the Legion has
an opportunity to lease the property
at a very reasonable figure and fol
this reason it is hoped that there will
be a good attendance at this evenings
meeting and that some definite actor
can be taken on the matter.

IN USED MACHINES
Stolen Automobile Is Traded For An.
other Car Which Was Sold to Two
Different People By Supposed
Army Deserters.

Late Saturday afternoon Chief OF
Police Harry A. Ort located Ford
automobile at the farm of Mr., A. H.
Prather in the Shannon neighborhood,
which had been stolen from the City of
Louisville. Chief Ort was advised that
this car had been traded to Mr.. Pra-
ther by three soldiers in uniform and
a glance at the list of stolen automo-
biles posted in the Chiefs office soon
disclosed that it was car stolen last
week from Louisville.
On Wednesday of last week three
soldiers driving the stolen Ford ap-
peared at Mr.. Prather's farm. Some
thing was wrong with the Ford and
they traded 1t to Mr.. Prather for an
old E. NJ. F. car he had. They drove
the E. M. F. only short distance when
they lost wheel from it and they Of
fered to sell 1t for ten dollars to Mr..
]. c. Riggs, of Mt. Olivet, who hap
pened along the road. Mr.. Riggs pur-
chased the machine from the soldiers
and came to Maysville to get the need
ed repairs for the car. On his re-
turning home he met Mr. Morris Lane
and others bringing the E. M. F, to
Washington. They told him that they
had purchased the car for ten dollars
from the soldiers. The selling Of the
old E. M. F, to two different parties
caused the matter to be reported to
the police.
The matter has been reported to the
Chief of Police at Louisville and the
owner of the stolen Ford is expected
here today or tomorrow to claim his
property. The police endeavored to
trace the soldiers but were unable tc
do so. 1t is thought that the soldiers
are deserters from Camp Taylor.
