to the building occupied by the

past years, since the Board was
brought to Louisville from Bowl

chased is four story and base

GIN purchasing this building for
the State Board of Health,' DIR.
A. T. Mccormack, State Health
Officer, said, Kentucky is tax
ing a forward step from which
it will derive benefits for the next
twenty years. Apart from the
saving of rent, the building eX-
actly suits Our requirements.
There is ample room for all the
administrative work of the
boards various bureaus. The
fourth floor makes an ideal lab
oratory and if we had to move,
we could not fix up our laboratory
for less than $1,000. The third
floor is exactly adapted to Our
School of Public Health Educa-
ton use.
The most important thing,
however, is that we have the
vaults we are required to have by
the vital statistics law, for the
storage Of vital statistics archives
These Vaults alone, if we under
took to construct them some
where else. would cost lis as much
as we paid for the entire build
ing. There is not only enough
room in them for The archivcstllat
we have accumulated during the
five years the vital statistics law

large enough to care for our arch
ives for the next twenty years"
In order to prevent possible lit

and benefit OF the State Board Of
Health on recommendation of

A YEAR MAKES Big
CHANGE IN EUROPE
tBy Associated Press

Paris, April 9.-American tour
lists who visit Europe in the COM
ing season will find it generally
much changed over last year.
greatly recovered from the cffectt
of the war and prepared to give
almost normal accommodations
i'll hotels. transportation and lux
ury in food.
The prices will be, with the adj
vantage of exchange with Amer
icanBmoney, about the same as in
America. The chief increase oyer
| the pre-war costs of touring Eu,
rope will be that of ocean transit
with some increase i'll rail trans
iportation. Persons able to trav-
el de luxe will find their expenses
Iabout on a par with the cost Of
living at the better class hotels in
! America.
The chief points of interest to
tourists are expected to be the
battlefields. and for this persons
will find thcsrOads in France es-
Ipecially, in better condition even
than before the war. The railway
trains are running on time and
arc rapidly approaching normal.
The fee for passport vises for
Americans in most countries Is
$40 and the number of vises for
touring remains about the same
as during the war. but French
government has just lessencd
somewhat the severity of its re-
strictions. The French will no
longer require a card of Identity
for tourist remaining i'll the
country less than two month. The
requirement for a prefecture OF
police wise for leaving France has
been removed.
The passport requirements Of
the various nations on the CONT
nent are said by recent travellers
to be much less trying than last
year-hardly more so than Gus
toms formalities for most coun-
tries, including the United States.
1t is desirable, however, for the
travellers to provide sufficient
passport photographs for the
countries requiring them for the
wise applications.

We realize that the murdered never
rovisits the scene of the crime. II
he had any sense he wouldn't have
visited 1t in the first place, thereby
saving his memory from sharp quips
from Mr.. Miller. who seems to know
more than is necessary in Lanham.
We once went through that town
paging a panic and asked old John
LN, III NA11 "a
knew he would escape himself.
We do not wish to intimidate Mr..
Miller. but a little description o.;
Roughtown may enlighten him on the
code of ethics prevailing in progress
sive riots. Black Jacks were always
trumps, and it was customary to lead
your highest card from a hand rich
with brass knuckles. Ambulance
gongs were used as doorbells. All
tournaments were miss and out Tally
cards were kept, and the spiked sock 8
were handed to the man with tho
most on his conscience
That's only the slightest clue to
Roughtown. The rest will be pub
lished only when some diluted indi-
vidual thinks he comes from a rough
er haven than that grand old borough
of restricted law and unhanpered
lawlessness. Whatever they say
about the old place, you must admit
that Roughtown was the pioneer burg
of western civilization. The men
grew full boards and attacked lions
with empty guns and heads. Those
birds didn't have a string of Chinese
numerals for a backbone. They
fought the Indians in the open, not
in divorce courts.
We could tell you more about this
but we know you don't want to hear
it Gink Fowler didn't use any gees
lures on this Miller, just words and
music. He won the leather-coateh
quinine pills in the first round. A
triple crash on the jaw and Miller
f1uttered to the old door mat like the
leaves from a loose-leaf forest.
Another career had opened and
closed like a miser's pocketbook.

DEMPSEY TOSTUDY
FRENCH LANGUAGE
Wants to Know What Carpen.
tier Is Saying in Ring-Kearns
Back in Camp.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.. May a.
Jack Dempsey IL going to study
French. The heavyweight champion
is going to know what Georges
Carpenter says in the ring on July 2
IL he has to study his odd hours away
from now until that time Jack is
decent enough to express his belief
that Carpenter and his seconds
would not take advantage OF their
knowledge of the foreign language
to attempt to pass out forbidden ad-
vice while the international scrap is
going on, but he declares that he in
tends to know what Is said.
Dempsey has no intention Of being
followed around by French pro-
fessor during his training period, nor
will he take French lessons by mail.
His idea is to get the pure and un-
adulterated Gallo argot from some
former habitue of the boulevards who
knows both French and fighting.
Jacks idea, as he expresses 1t. Is to
have some OF his STAFF pick up a
minor fighter who knows French or
an expatriated Partisan who has fol-
lowed the sport on the other side and
who can teach him the ordinary
French language of the ring.
Dempsey is a determined youth and
he refuses to listen to the toshing of
some of the highly educated news
correspondents and other advisers
who inform him that the French verb
is a tougher proposition than any
Carpenter who ever crossed the
ocean.
Jack believes that man Of
ordinary intelligence should be able
to pick up a pretty complete knowl-
edge of ordinary French fight idiom
in four or FIVE weeks and declares
he will try it anyhow. He has a
shrewd idea that IL he confines him.
self to getting the inner meaning OF
the spoken French word as he hears
it instead of spreading out his efforts s,
he will be ready to absorb all the
French that Carpenter may shoot
at him during the more exciting
moments of the Tight
