STATE HEALTH OFFICIALS
WERE In LAKELAND ONLY
A SHORT TIME TUESDAY

Among the prominent visitors in
Lakeland on Tuesday were Hon. Joe
L. Earman, of West Palm Beach,
chairman of the State Board of Health
and former chairman of the State
Board of Control, who motored
through from Tampa enroute to the
lower East Coast accompanied by DR..
Ralph N. Greene of Jacksonville, state
health officer, and ID. II. Osborn of
Tampa, state sanitary Inspector Mr..
Earman, who is probably more wide
ly known as the former editor and
owner of the Palm Beach Post than
he is as high public official of Flor
ida, was in hurry to push through
to his destination but Dr. Greene and
Mr.. Osborn remained over for the
northbound night train. DR.. Greene
has severed his official connection as
a state health officer, to become eff
fective next July. His Lakeland
friends who met him Tuesday were
warm in their praise of his efficient
and able services to his state in the
important post he holds and expressed
regret that he is to retire to take up
private practice in Jacksonville.

here waiting development. Our DEM
ocratic system of government is back
ed by wonderful moral mental poise
among q majority of our citizens.
There are plenty of big men who
are able to direct the affairs of the
nation in wise and just spirit. Just
now we are tearing down a lot of tenn
porary buildings and blowing holes in
the ground for the new foundations.
Soon we shall be ready for the new
building, and when that time comes
We shall see a prosperity beyond any
thing in our history.
Meanwhile every one must take
himself IN hand and keep right on
keeping on. The man who can hang
on the longest is the man who wins
his fight. Many of our troubles are
unnecessary and often imaginary. The
United States is the best off of any
nation in the world. If we will put
the same, or even a fraction of the
same cooperation, courage and con-
fidence into the talk of readjustment
that we put into the war, we shall
be out of the woods in a short time
and better off than ever.
Thousands of men are facing their
heartbreaking burdens like heroes.
Let US catch their spirit and emulate
their example Everybody buck up
and fight. Fight mostly against the
temptation to lose your nerve. Pan
les are normal to beasts and bugs,
but not to men.
Already we have probably turned
the corner. Now is the time to stand
together; to postpone selfishness; to
throttle greed. "All at it and always
at it" will bring US all to the best
times we have ever had. We must
help every man, every institution that
is worthy of help. for only in that way
shall we help ourselves.

Revelations
of Wife
What Madse Remembered.
Hv AOELE CARRIsON

To my overwrought imagination it
seemed miles away. / suddenly felt an
overwhelming terror of the cloudless
sky, the rolling waves, even of the girl
who had brought me out so far.
1 looked wildly around for her, but
not see her anywhere. Evidently she
was indulging in one of her under
water tricks. I turned blindly toward
the shore. AS did so felt sudden
jerk, a quick clutch at my foot, a
clutch that dragged me down relent-
lessly.
I remembered gasping, struggling.
fighting for life, with an awful sensa-
ton of being sunk in a gulf of black
ness. L fancied heard Lillian Under
woods voice in a piercing scream,
Then I knew nothing more.
The next thing l remember was a
voice. There. she's coming out of it.
Let me havd that teaspoon of brandy"
and then I felt the spoon inserted be-
tween my teeth and something fiery
trickled gently drop by drop in my
throat. The voice was that of DR..
Petit.
With a gasp as the pungent liquid
almost strangled me, opened my
eyes to find that the physicians arm
was supporting my shoulder and his
hand holding the spoon to my lips.
ooh, thank God, thank God" some
one groaned brokenly on the other
side of me, and 1 turned my eyes TO
meet Dicky's face bent close to mine
and working with emotion.
"She is all right now" the physician
said, reassuringly. "She will suffer far
more from the shock than from any
real damage by her immersion. Get
her into the tent" He turned to Mrs
Underwood and said: Rub her down
hard, and il there are any extra wraps
in the party put them around her.
Give her a stiff little dose of this" He
handed Lillian the brandy flask
"Then bring her out into the sunshine
again. She'll be all right in a little
while"

the physician spoke as il I had been a
child and strobe with me toward the

toned. to the darkness. Eskimos have
no windows in their low ice-houses
and very low doors and the only light
they get is by burning whale-oil or
sea-oil in flat dishes.
But they soon made out the figure
of man bending over a little moss
fire and stirring a broth that smelled
awfully good to their little noses. It
must be the good Ishtu himself. the
one who had called so cheerily to them

SCABIES.


There are certain easily communi-
Gated skin affections frequently found
among school children which because
of their specially annoying and dis
agreeable features should be careful
ly guarded against. These are scabies
Citch), ringworm, and pediculosis cap
itas (head lice).
Scabies, or itch, is due to a minute
animal parasite, which burrows into
the skin and causes intense itching.
The consequent scratching results in
the characteristic eruption, which is
found chiefly between the fingers, on
the front of the wrists, at the bend of
the elbow, and on the marginal folds
of the armpitS. If child is seen to
be scratching, particularly If there is
a pustular eruption on the hands, he
should be at once examined for itch.
The disease is communicated by con-
tact with the child affected or with
anything he has used. Hence it can
be readily seen how easily itch can
spread in school or family, unless
every possible precaution is taken.
The child should be excluded from
school until the disease is cured,
which need not be long, if proper
measures are employed in the home. 1t
is likely that other members of the
family will be affected and everyone
having the disease must be treated
until cured, and the under clothing,
bedding, towels, and anything which
has come in contact with the body of
each case must be boiled or baked
each time they are washed. Unless
these precautions are taken, con-
slant re-infection will be taking place
and the infection will continue indef-
initely
