Contagious diseases reported durin <
the month of October were as follows.
Diphtherla ........ .............l'
Scarlet lever ..,............. i
Chicken poX .................' /
During the past month diphtheria
has been unusually prevalent through
out the entire middle West. This and
the high death rate is in measure
cases, mild in character, have gone
undetected or at least did not apply
for treatment until the disease had be-
come well established For this rea-
son all case of sore throat should be
looked upon with suspicion and re-
Ceive careful attention.
Early diagnosis and the use OF anti
toxin will reduce the mortality from
diphtheria to almost nothing. In
doubtful cases there should be no de-
lay to the administration of antitoxin,
In such cases inject first and diagnose
afterward should always be the rule.

A Leader The Sixty-seven-
less. tn Congress OF
Congress. the United States
has been in session a month.
It has done !, nothing but
demonstrate its2poWer to 40
nothing. It. has plainly
shown itself devoid of any
intelligent program to meet
the country's reconstruction
needs and.:any strong leader
ship" to put it through. It
drifts along from day to day
like a boat without a pilot,
now in one direction and
now in another, inconstant
of !. purpose, uncertain Of
course and entirely ,atsaths
mercy Of the winds Of
chance. !:
There was to be an "emer-
gency" tariff, but any "emer-
gency' that ever existed will
| be long over before the
stimulant arrives. There was
to be a sales tax but a wave
Of protest frightened that OFT
he program. Then there was
to be immediate peace Just
IS soon as Congress can pass
a resolution and | can sign
it." said MI. Harding. The
Senate passed the resolution
and now it is reported that
it is being held up in the
House at the instance Of the
President. There were to be
some steps taken towards an
! international conference on
disarmament but that idea
has been abandoned.
Members Of Congress of
both political parties COM
planned bitterly Of the iron
methods Of Mr.. Wilson's
leadership and accused him
Of being dictatorial and
autocratic. Perhaps he Was,
but if Congress does not get
busy and do something. II
will completely justify him
in having been necessarily
50. Even if Mr.. Wilson was
III autocrat, as his enemie.

:arily follow that now that
Congress is free Of him It
