having such good time, and I was so for
lorn.
"I used to cry when mother made me go to
the school girl and boy entertainments given
by my classmates and to which of course
was always invited. A three or four-hour ses-
sion on the rack would have been no more
exquisite torture to me then the time l spent
hiding out in the dressing room, or tagging
some other couple, or clinging like drown
ling person to some good natured little boy
on whom my hostess had wished me, know
ing with every aching fibre In my soul, that
nobody wanted me, that for some reason
could not fathom, didn't belong, and that
lacked the thing the other girls had that
made the boys want to be with them.
"But mother was adamant to my tears.
She made me go no matter how much I suf-
fered, for she said that If didn't go every
where people would cease asking me and
would drop out and be forgotten. And she
said that after while would learn how to
be popular with the boys, but in that she was
mistaken. Being a siren isn't matter Of
scientific skill or expert knowledge. It's q
gift.

worse. I had a big coming-out party l

the smile that won't come off, and suffer
the tortures of the damned while my mother
and my long-suffering hostess work like re-
cruiting officers, drafting unwilling slackers
to dance with me, or take me into supper.
believe me, the Early Christian Martyrs
have nothing on the line of girls sitting on
the anxious bench around any ball room, and
why their fatuous mothers make them endure
this humiliation of seeing themselves flouted
and passed over is beyond my comprehension.
None of us really enjoy martyrdom and there
isn't one of us who wouldn't million times
rather save our faces by staying at home,
and at least pretending that we preferred

attractive girls never sense how Inundated we
are when we see them trying to hire men
to pay us attention by feeding them, or TAX
ing them to the theater, or riding them
around in motors, and that they do not
realize that we feel like slaves on the block
when they hawk us around the marriage
market places.
perhaps if they did they would not show
us how anxious they are to marry us off, and
would let us journey to the Spinsters' Re-

THE MEASLES MENACE
Rv Il. Addington Bruce

n r ANY mothers-perhaps / should say
MI most mothers-think lightly Of nea-
AVA sizes as a disease Of childhood. They
| seem to take it for granted that their little
ones must experience this malady soon or
late, and that it Jill pass off leaving them
none the worse.
There even are mothers who purposely ex-
pose their children to infection by measles,
on the theory that since the children are
bound to have measles some day the sooner
they are through with it the better.
But the fact is that measles is by no means
an unavoidable disease. And while 1t for
tunately does not have any gravely untoward
effects in the majority OF cases, there are
many children-numbering in the aggregate
hundreds of thousands-to whom its results
are serious indeed.
"The most important thing about measles, "
as DR.. Richard Cabot incisively notes, "ts
that tuberculosis of the lungs often follows
it, and that acute bronco-pneumonia some
times complexities 1t and kills."
There are other grave complications and
after-effects to be reckoned with. The nerv-
Gus system may become involved, so that pa
ralysis in some degree develops. Meningitis
Is not unknown as sequel to measles. Mel
Their is disease OF the middle ear, having as
| outcome temporary or lasting deafness.
And, just as the germs which cause rheu-
matism may produce serious cardiac troubles
by gaining access to the blood stream and
finding Judgment in the heart, SO may the
of varying severity. In other words, measles
may be responsible for fixing on it's victim
some malady far more serious than the mea-
sles itself. 49,
1t is particularly likely to do this, according
to DR.. B. F. Roger, of Philadelphia, If the
child attacked by measles is child having
adenoids enlarged tonsils or bad teeth.
SIN clinical experience of few years ago
extending to 1000 cases OF diphtheria, scar
let fever, measles, and other communicable
Diseases" DR.. Roger stated recently, 81 ex-
amined carefully the mouths and Threats OF
every patient. The severe sequels were seen
in association with bad oral health.
eff there Is anything I would urge on
health officers along the lines Of preventive
medicine, it is that of urging removal OF
diseased tonsils and adenoids very early in
life, with the expectation that removal OF
these diseased structures will do great deal
to avert the incidence Of communicable dis
eases themselves. Undoubtedly it is the most
| certain guarantee against the sequels OF
these diseases"
And in order to prevent the contracting OF
measles nothing is more important than iso-
lation of children from contact with other
children when measles is known to be in the
neighborhood. g.
This may not suffice to insure safety, since
| measles is one of the most readily communi-
cable of all infections. But it is the most
helpful of preventive measures yet available;
and, even though it is measure not always
| easy to enforce, parents should make real
| effort to enforce it in view of the dire con-
sequences measles may have.
