AN INSPECTION
BY HEALTH BOARD
Hotels and Boarding Houses Must
Meet Certain Requirements
Under Law

Louisville, Ky, Feb. 2s.-Pro-
prietors of hotels and boarding
houses at health and pleasure re-
sorts all over Kentucky are being
I notified by the State Board OF
Health that they must have re-
sponsible men meet the State
boards sanitary inspectors in the
next few weeks to see that the reg
ulations governing uncontaminated
water supply, adequate sewerage
arrangements and proper screening
have been observed.
The State board, a short time
ago, after seven cases of typhoid
fever at Cincinnati had been traced
back to impure water at a Ken
lucky health resort, notified the
proprietors of all such hotels and
boarding houses in the state that
they would be required to obtain
special permits before opening up
this year and that these permits
would be issued only when the
boards regulations had been COM
piled with. The sanitary inspec-
tors, as soon as the weather per-
mits, will begin their work of de-
termining what proprietors have
complied with these regulations.
The law under which these regu-
lations were promulgated provides
for the prosecution of hotel pro-
prietors who open up without first
having obtained the State boards
permit. In addition the State board
will publish a list of the hotels
which have complied with its regu-
lations in order that the public
may know to what resorts it may
go with safety.

NO HOPE FOR ULTIMATE
BUYER TO GET REFUND
OF STATE WHISKY TAX

Greensboro, KY, Mar. 5.-Loca
distillers are awaiting direct in
formation from the state officials in
regard to the decision of the su.
preme court declaring the state tar
of fifty cents on the gallon ON all
whisky withdrawn from bond, un-
constitutional.
None of the local distillers has
been paying the tax to the state
but they have collected it from per-
sons Withdrawing whisky from
bond. They have executed bond to
the state for the amount. It will
be comparatively simple matter
for the distillers to refund the tax
to the persons who withdrew whis-
ky on warehouse receipts. as they
have a complete record of all with
drawals. The law went into effect
about a year ago and since then
many thousands of gallons of whis-
ky have been withdrawn from bond
here.
The fifty cent tax has been tack
ed on to the price of whisky in
sales to jobbers. WHOLESALERS and re-
tailers. The lattsr have added 1t to
the price of the whisky. Persons
who did not hold warehouse re-

CHICAGO POLICE LET

Beyond capturing a still occas,

ADVISES AVOIDING USE
OF BAD CANNED GOODS
State Board Warns Against Eat.
ing Timed Foods That
May Have Spoiled

Louisville, KY, Mar. 5.-Acting
on information received from the
Bureau of Chemistry, United States
Department of Agriculture, Wash
ington, the Bureau of Pure Food
and Drugs of the state Board of
Health has issued a general warn
ing against botulism, disease
which occurs as a result of eating
contaminated timed food and
which already has caused several
fatalities in the United States. No
deaths have yet been caused in Ken
lucky by the disease, the bureaus
announcement states, but in order
that the people of the State may
protect themselves from potential
dangers it is deemed advisable that
they be acquainted with its serious
ness.
The disease is not necessarily
fatal, but it is easier to avoid than
to cure. It's sole cause is bacteria
in canned food and the presence of
these bacteria invariably may be
detected by the person opening the
container. If all canned goods
that appear spoiled to the eye or
to the nose are destroyed the di-
sease need not be feared.
The bureaus announcement
states that its warning is by no
means an indictment of canning
practices nor a warning against
canned food. 1t was issued purely
in the hope that any canned food
that appears to the senses the least
bit suspicious will be thrown away

ton about proper methods of breed
ing and selling.
Two organizations of breeders
which met advocated that no sales
be held this year on account of
price conditions and that sales here
after be made a yearly event, 1t
was reported at the meeting.
Committees were appointed to
confer with the Bourbon Stock
yards Company with regard to mar
keting conditions and with commit
tees of the Kentucky State Fair
concerning premiums. A banquet
at the hotel at $3.50 o'clock marked
the close of the session.

Yes, undoubtedly. For the removal of
disease, better scientific instruments
are needed. For the removal of GER
tain domestic difficulties, better hous-
Ing accommodations are needed. For
the removal of industrial friction, a
better economic system is needed. For
the removal Of international strife, a
new world organization Is needed. A
world that has been organized for war
must be organized for peace. For the
rebuilding of the world better instru-
ments are needed. But what is SUI

only you and and all our neighbors
would persistently cultivate the Christ

would live in p far better world. For
then it would be only a question Of
time until we should discover the In
Struments needed for the fashioning
Of fairer civilization, and we would
be willing to use these instruments as
soon as they could be developed.
What pity, then, if Christmas this
year should come and go and leave

We need to perpetuate the Christ
mas spirit in our homes.
1t is a solemn moment when two
human lives are united for better, for
worse, for richer, for poorer, in sick
ness and in health, till death do them
part. AS Jane WEIGH Carlyle once
said, eff ever one is to pray, if ever
one is to feel grave, If ever one is to
shrink from vain show and babble, it
is Just on the occasion when two hui
man beings bind themselves together
till death do them part"
There is nothing that more nearly
resembles the heaven of our dreams
than does happy home. Is there any
thing that so surely suggests the hell
Of our secret dread as does an un-

Observation-Disclosures
Candles and
Yule Log
,OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoOOO

A. HRISTMAS gifts were common
In Medieval times. Accounts
tell of the chambers guild send
out gratis to everyone special
TT Of big, fiat candles which were
lrned with the Yule log to light
e houses for the coming of super
tural Christmas visitor. The bak-
also sent out "Yule cakes" or
yule babies" which were little Inn
les of Christ. This custom, in fact,
ems to be even older, it being re-
rded on the old Roman calendars
tn at on the Vigil of the Nativity little
images of the Christ Child were made
In great numbers and presented to
the fathers in the Vatican.
Gradually the sentiment of peace
on earth, good will to men" and the
celebration of the spirit by general
gifts seems to have spread through
the other guilds, and finally to have
become general.
In England today there Is survival
of the ancient custom practiced by
landowners of setting big sacks OF
grain or other products outside the
gate that whoever came might help
himself. 1t is said that an extra
Christmas eve feed is also still given
to the cattle.

but have to cut them in the nearest
wood lot, must devise some other way
of holding the Christmas tree in posi-
ton.
The easiest way to do this, IL the
tree is not too large and heavy, Is to
insert the trunk into the hole through
the bottom of a wooden box, and
either paint this box green or red or
cover it with green or red paper.
A starch box will hold up small
tree perfectly, but somewhat larger
box must be chosen for one Of larger
growth. If, in spite of all precautions,
the tree seems too heavy and is In
clined to wobble, weight the box on
either side with heavy stones. Some
times the box>is filed with sand, the
trunk planted in that, and then the
wooden cover nailed in place to make
all very solid.
If one has any talent for carpentry,
even of the toughest sort, an effective
support can be made by mailing two
pieces of wood in the shape OF
square cross, holding the tree upon
this and mailing cleats TO both tree
and support until 1t stands firmly.
A very pretty effect can be obtained
BY covering the support of the tree
and the floor directly around 1t with
white cotton batting on which silver
tinsel. called "rain" In most shops, has
been sprinkled. This makes the tree
look as IL it we're growing in bunch
Of snow giittering in the sun.
