HEALTH OFFICERS
ISSUE WARNING TO
ELIMINATE CROWDS

While reports from the Portland Of
fices OF the Oregon state board OF
health verifies the belief that the
rumored epidemic OF Spanish influen-
"a, or "flu" is abating: the state
health authorities are keeping IN
touch with the situation and are en-
deavoring TO arouse public interest In
methods OF protection against flu
causes
This Is indicated by a cirrular let
ter received by the Salem health
board. At the present time there are
very few cases OF flu In Salem, and
these are SO nearly allied to common
severe colds. that often there is ser
ious doubt IL the 50 called FLU cases
are the genuine article, according TO
local physicians.
There has been general complaint
that many public places in Salem are
conducted carelessly, from a common
sense view point, in many cases. es-
peclally during epidemic times, peo-
pie are permitted TO congregate In
show houses and other places with an
entire disregard to regulations which
prohibit the crowding of aisles and
exits During the recent smallpox cpl
demic in Portland, and during the re-
cent flu scares in that city. the police
and health departments took precau-
tions to obviate necessity for the com
plete closing of theaters and public
places by causing strict enforcement
of the fire ordinances which forbids
the crowding of these places above
seating capacity.
Br. r. K. Pomeroy, city health Of
ficer for Salem, states that there is
absolutely no cause for alarm, but
asks for the cooperation Of the gen.
eral public in the prompt reporting
of all suspected cases and in the OBJ
servance Of quarantine regulations.
The following extracts from emer-
gency influenza regulations formulat-
ed by the state board of health out
line the situation:
"All persons, whether physicians
nurses, heads Of schools. teachers
boarding house and hotel managers
and heads of households are required
to report to the health officer all cir
cumstances which reasonably indi'
Gates that a case Of Spanish influen-
"a Is developing giving the health Of
ficer all possible assistance.
while the policy Of the state board
OF health Is against closures of church
es. schools. theaters and other places
II does earnestly request the coopera-
tion Of the general public in the mat
ter OF voluntarily avoiding unneces
sary exposures"

WILL HONOR EARLY PRINTER
Anniversary Of Birth Of ChrIstophe
PIantin to Be Appropriately Com
memorated In August.

The four hundredth anniversary of
the birth of Christophe Plantin, the
noted French printer of the sixteenth
century, will be commemorated with
appropriate ceremonies in Antwerp
during August. Plantin was son of
Belgium only through adoption. He
was born somewhere in historic
TOuraine.
1t was the peculiar achievement of
Plantin to bring honor and glory to
the printers trade in the days of It's
infancy. With a keen appreciation
Of the beauties of literature, Plantin
delighted In perfecting his workman
ship in order that these beauties
might be published In the most at
tractive form possible, although his
tools were those Of common work.

1569-1573-an attempt at a scientific
revision of the text of the Old and
New Testaments. 1t was published in
the Greek, Hebrew, Syrian and Chal-
dean languages. AS a result Of this
monumental work Plantin received
from King Philip of Spain the title
prototypographus regius," and the
right to print all the liturgical books
for the q qtes embraced in King Phil

Electrical Sterilization.

In new report on electrical steril-
ization, Professor Beattie and Lewis
Of Liverpool university, concluded that
milk can be freed from disease germs
without heating above 145 degrees to
lat degrees Fahrenheit At this low
temperature, the state of the milk is
not altered and its properties seem to
be in no way impaired, while the cleo
trio treatment greatly increases the
time Of keeping. The tests were made
with two types of apparatus, different
degrees of current and several quail
tiles of milk.

Innings which they call a "Maillot."
These slips are Of thin satin, one light,
one dark. Gray is the color usually
chosen for the latter and flesh pink or

Women and Child Welfare

THOSE who have the welfare of the
4 human race at heart realize that
the most promising field for their &C.
tivities lies In child-welfare work.
Gradually 1t has dawned upon the con-
seriousness of increasing numbers OF
people that the state owes every child
Its supervision and has a right to die
tate how any child shall be cared for,
provided for and educated for the
FIRST sixteen years Of its life. The state
provides schools and compulsory edu-
cation laws and when the time comes
that these are carefully enforced
great step forward will have been
taken.
But the state must go farther than
merely providing the means for OBJ
tanning schooling and this is theme
in which women show unfailing and
vital interest. Children have the right
to be comfortable, to be we'll nourished
and clothed, to be taught cleanliness
and morality. Many charitable asso-
Citations and many women organiza-
lions have interested themselves In
these affairs of children in certain
localities, but the work Is not as uni
yersal or as thoroughly organized as
it should be. A plan has been evolved
that might have universal application,
and It aims to give every child a
chance to make a good citizen.
This plan advocates the establish
ment in every county of this country,
a child-welfare board. This board Is
to be made up Of public spirited citi-
zens who are willing to serve on 1t
without pay. The board will have I'M
der its jurisdiction every poor and de-
pendent child, and will exercise Its
supervision, under compulsory statutes,
with proper appropriations made for
their enforcement. The provision
made by such q board for children is
not a charity any more than public
school Is. The idea Is to avoid any
stigma that might attach to a child
who has been a charge Of charity and
the object is to start every child on
the right road to good citizenship.
Such a board will make itself felt
In the homes and insist that condi-
lions are az favorable there as posi-
bic. It will sometimes undertake to
provide homes. It will have record
of every child's progress at school and
