TO MY OLD HOME TOWN

The world is simply full Of folks
OF every sort galore.
Some live in fields, some live on lots,
And some beside your door.
Wherever you go, wherever you be,
All sorts of things you'll see;
But oh the joy that surely comes
Whenever you 60 back home.
Back home where the folks all know
you,
Where they'll give you a friendly
pat;
Where the wholesome welcome Is
hearty and true,
When they ask, where have you
been att"
Back to the old home town, with its
narrow paved streets,
But where blessings grow out Of
the ground,
And the tears are all hidden beneath
the smiles,
For the folks forget TO frown.
In the old home town, there, heavens
light abounds
Alike on the bad and the good;
There, chipmunks, rabbits, possums
and things
Rejoice anon in the wood.
And even the birds as they fit thru
the air
Have ever a song on the wing;
Light-hearted and happy they fly
without fear;
While praises TO God they sing.
Back 10 the same little town In the
same old way,
With sweet memories surging
around;

MINUTES OF ALUMNI AsSOCIA.
TON BUSINESS
Meeting, June 7 and 8, 1921

Meeting, June z and 3, 1921
"The most enthusiastic meeting we
have ever had" seemed to be the ver-
dict Of every one present at the An
nual Meeting this year. While the
number Of members on the ground
was not as large as last year, they
made up in interest what they lacked
in that respect.
As none Of the members of the
Committee was present, the report
of the Alumni Endowment Fund Com
mittee was presented by Miss E. K.
Corwin, and showed that some $240
has been paid in at the Office Of the
College Treasurer. Temporary soli-
citors we've appointed, and from a
mong the members present additional
pledges amounting to S155 were Sc
cured.
Because Of the urgent need of adj
ditional scholarships for College stu
dents, it was urged that every effort
be made to complete the $1,000 which
we set out to raise as soon as pos
sible, so that the income may be
available before the end of the year.
The proposed amendments to the
Constitution were thoroughly discus
sed, and seemed to meet unanimous
approval. Two additional bylaws
were suggested, the first providing
that holders of honorary degrees from
the College do not thereby become
members Of our Association, and the
second providing for an annual COM
mittee on finance to audit the
accounts Of the Treasurer and the
Endowment Fund Committee.
In recognition of her great servi-
ces to the Association, Mrs. E. Lou
Hanson was elected as Honorary
Member.
The Treasurer explained how the
work of the Association is hindered
because of the non-payment of dues
on the part of so many of our MEM
bers, and urged that during May
of each year every member lay 1t on
his conscience to remit the annual
dues of s1OO to the Alumni Treas
urer. To print adequate reports Of
our meetings, mail notice Of meetings,
and conduct necessary correspondence,
requires real money.
II was decided to proceed with the
publication of an "Alumni Handbook
to contain our Constitution and By
Laws, and the name, address, and &C.
cupation of each and every member
Of our Association. The names and
addresses will first be published in
the Citizen, so that when published
it may be as nearly correct and up
to-date as possible.

taken in thru the mouth. This may
happen in various ways. Flies light
on the excrement and carry 1t on
their feet to be deposited on the food.
The hands Of those caring for the
patient become soiled and the food
contaminated in this way. The rain
washes the excrement into the ground
or into a creek and thru the well or
the branch the water is taken into
the system. Water contaminated
with the germs Is used to wash dishes
OF milk utensils. All this goes to
show that the only way to be sure
that no germs are in your food Is
to destroy the germs In the excre-
ment before II is cast out.
Now when people are travelling
about the country they cannot be sure
that they are always getting water
and food which Is free from these
germs. Fortunately. II is possible
to vaccinate against typhoid. Since
the U. s. Army has been using this
vaccine on all the soldiers typhoid
has entirely disappeared from the
ranks. II Is the part Of wisdom for
every man OF woman who Is COM
PEELED to travel about the country TO
take this vaccine about once every
two years. II he does this. he will
be sure to escape the disease. OF
course the vaccine must not make us
careless about flies and sanitary
privies. Everything possible must
be done to destroy the germs and
make II safe for our neighbors.
However, when we have done our best
there is still danger from our more
careless neighbors and here the vac
cine comes to our aid and win make
us absolutely safe.

BRRRA MARSHAL ARRESTS
BOOTLEGGER

Every good American believes In
law enforcement. but II Is easy for
even good citizens to relieve them
selves of any feeling Of responsible
ity In the matter and depend too COM
pletely upon the officers Of the law
TO keep the peace. II Is, OF course,
the first and last obligation Of the
officer Of the law TO see that the pub
lie Is protected, and that the laws
are obeyed.
Berea has a marshal In the person
of Mr.. G. G. Hubbard. who is thoroly
conscientious and absolutely fearless
in the performance of duty, and he
merits the support of every citizen
in this town. An example Of his
fearless character In the performance
Of duty was demonstrated few days
ago when he was taking man TO
Jail. In spite Of repeated threats by
the offender TO kill the officer II he
placed him In Jail, the man spent the
night behind the bars.
That bootlegging Is rampant, not
only in this neighborhood but In ad-
joining counties, is matter Of COM
mon knowledge. For some time past
the Berea officer has had suspicious

BEWARE OF TYPHOID FEVER

This is the season Of the year when
typhoid fever is common. Especial
ly is this true in rural districts where
there is a scarcity Of good drinking
water and where there are enormous
numbers Of flies. There is no doubt
at all that typhoid fever is carried al
most exclusively by flies and water.
II is a terrible thing TO think Of, but
II is a fact that typhoid does not get
into the body unless some part of the
exerement Of a typhoid patient Is
