Health for the week ended yesterday.
Nurses of the Department Of Health
have made a house o-house canvass
during the last few days to guard
against unrecognized or unrcported
cases, visiting 5000 homes housing 22.-
600 persons. They found only nine
teen children stricken.
While the number Of cases reported
for the week is larger than any since
the epidemic of 1916, Health Commits
soner Royal S. Copeland said yester-
day he did not consider the outlook
particularly menacing. At the same
time he repeated admonitions issued by
the department tending to minimize
spread of the disease. During investi-
cations made by department nurses
only two authenticated unreported
cases were found.
at is difficult to determine to what
extent the two unrcported cases ind-
cate existence of others unreported in
conGcsted Districts" said DR.. Copeland
last night. 81 wish to call attention n
again to the necessity for more than
the usual vigilance in exclud-
ing from school any child having fever,
catarrhal symptoms or other evidence
OF disease. Also will make few
suggestions to parents:
"Do not let children come in contact
with persons who have colds.
"Do not let children shake hands
with such persons or use eating or
drinking utensils which such persons
have used.
Keep children away from ice cream
parlors, soda fountains or restaurants
where uncleanliness is apparent.
"Do not expose children to dust from
swcepings of home or streets.
keep children away from all sick
persons. Do not let them visit homes
where there is sickness.
make children wash their hands be
fore touching food.
DO not kiss children on their
mouths Do not permit others to do
So"
DR.. Copeland further urges parents
to consult physician as soon as q
child displays the slightest sign OF
sickness, especially in cases where
there is fever or catarrh.

Campaign for More Chill

A campaign to encourage large fam

with equal emphasis by Major Leonard
Darwin. son Of Charles Darwin the evo-
lutionist, 1T the congress of eugensts
at the Museum OF Natural History yes
terday afternoon.
Speaking before an audience which
crowded the Hall of ,he Age Man, so
that many persons were obliged to
stand. Major Darwin complimentcd the
convention upon the great interest
manlf tested in euEencs II this country,
and declared that this convention would
be epoch aking in the history of hu
man Improvement. The United States,
he sad, held the welfare of the race in
its keeping. and upon its action in re-
gard to race bettcrment hung the fate
of civilized races.
Would Segregat'e Detectives
He pointed out, however, that there
were between three and four hundred
/ thousand detectives in the United
States who were likely to pass their
defects on to their children.
| "1f the interests of posterity are not
to be grossly neglected, no feeble
minded person should be allowed to be-
come a parent" he said. "Moreover
those who have studied this problem
are agreed, l think, that the right
method to adopt is segregation, by
which is meant confinement in comfort
the sexes being kept apart. We all
hate interfering with liberty, but let
it be remembered that liberty necessi-
tates equality and that as equality is
impossible with the feeble minded, they
can never have true liberty"
The tendency of the better classes of
the community, the educated and we'll
to do. to have small families, was de-
precated as tending toward race de-

Says Oklahoma Leader
Federal Appropriations Bigger
Than Value of Principal
Crops, Haskell Points Out

McALESTER, Oxls.. sept. 24.-
Charles n. Haskell, first Governor of
Oklahoma, speaking at the Pittsburg
County fair here to-day, urged greater
economy in governmental expenses to
present breeding a mortgage on the
future that the American people event
ually cannot bear. He pointed out that
the value of Americas four greatest
crops this year-corn. wheat, tobacco
and cotton was not equal TO the
amount appropriated in Washington
for running the country. He urged
return to "our original plan of gov
ernment, bred Of economy and simple
life, wherein the national pride cen
tered in the comfort of the home
rather than in the magnifcence of
public. structures.
Mr.. Haskell urged a return to state
rather than national administration Of
local affairs, but insisted that the wild
extravaganza in Washington would not
cease until the people demanded of
their representatives in Congress a
checking of the waste Of money.

mako it widely and deeply felt that it
s both immoral and unpatriotic for
couples sound in mind and body to un-
duly limit the size of their families
No doubt difficulties will be expert
enccd in deciding to what extent the
duty of rarenthood is imposed in indi-
vidual cases The main difficulty will
however, be to get this duty strongly
felt by tie mass of the people. For
success in this endeavor would, | am
convinced, have much greater effect
on the size of families than common
sense alone would Indicate.
"Failure is, however, certain If the
problem is not attacked with religious
zeal. There ought to be n great moral
campaign against the selfish regard for
rersona comfort and social advance
mcnt, for these aims must be in a
measure sacrificed on the altar of fam
lily life if racial progress is to be in
sured.
I'VE should recognize that we should
best serve our country by bringing
healthy and intelligent children into
the world, provided we can give them
a sound education and fair start in
life. and all of us should be ready to
make some sacrifice of social position
in order to obey our country's call in
this respect. The nation that wins in
this moral campaign will have gone
halfway toward gaining an all round
racial victory"
