 Campaign leaders are convinced that the result of the whirlwind week of the campaign will prove that Bridgeport does care and will result in the complete subscription of the financial goal of $475,OO0. The recent success of a similar campaign in New Haven, where half a million dollars was raised, and the success full operation of the Community Ches1 plan in practically every large city in the country will act as a spur to Bridgeport, it is believed.
 The West End Hebrew Ladies Aid Society has become a member of the Community Chest, which does not in crease the membership, however, for the Council of Jewish Women and the Hebrew Childrens' Aid Society have combined and will seek their budget together.
 Divisional generals and their aids and team captains met yesterday at luncheon and reported that the or ganization of the teams is progress ing rapidly. Team personnel will be announced at a later date when the organization has bee completed The Citizens Committee, under the chair manship of Mrs. Sanford Stoddard, has been completed. It comprises more than seven hundred of the rep resentative citizens of the city.

Each year in Bridgeport one dis ease is responsible for more deaths than any other single cause and yet it is permitted to pass practically without comment, and this disease is pneumonia This is due to failure to recognize pneumonia as a communi- cable disease Pneumonia like inf1u- enza can be conveyed to a person by coming in contact with one who has the disease or from discharges from the nose and throat.
 Pneumonia in itself is a separate disease and IS not necessarily sec ondary stage of a cold although it can be contracted by not properly taking care of a cold Great care should be taken as to where a person eXpectorateS and Sneezes- Apply the same rules used to prevent influenza and it will help to decrease the deaths caused by pneumonia.

Cynthiana, Dec. 27. - The Licking
River at this point is the highest tina,
has been known In the last forty
years. All through the lower part OF
town known as the commons, the res
idents have had to move, some Sun
day night, others Monday, as the riv-
er continued to rise. Those who had
not experienced the high water be-
fore were terror stricken as the water
poured into their homes.
The conditions are distressing as
many whe are not compelled to nave
are surrounded by water. Miss Cros-
by, public health nurse, served soup
to the sufferers from the new school
building on Pleasant street.
The city is without water supply as
the fire boxes of the pumping station
are flooded with water. The stand.

In case of fire. The water has never

OHIO REACHES IT'S

Swollen Stream Expected to Go Back
Within It's Banks RapIdly-Fall
Is Expected to Begin
Tonight.

The Ohio River reached Its crest
on the present rise at 52.4 feet Tucs-
day morning and has stood at this
same guage practically all day. Indi-
cations from reports received at Dis
trict Forecaster Devereaux's Office in
Cincinnati from up-river points are
that the stream in this district will be-
gin falling Tuesday night or early
Wednesday and 1t is expected to 60
back within Its banks very rapidly.
Although no amount of damage has
been done by the swollen stream at
this place, great Inconvenience was
occasioned when the flood stage Of
fifty feet was passed and the waters
covered the floor of Limestone bridge,
making It necessary for all east end
ers to use the L. & N. railroad to get
into the main part Of the city.
A fall of only few feet will again
make 1t possible to cross the bridge
and the street department will have
the bridge sidewalk cleaned Just as

two houses belonging to the Peoples

have been returned by the warehouse
committee Of the Burley Growers Co

probably be taken today.
