School and Epidcmics
With the r~eopening of the schools
came the danger of contagious dis
cases turning into epidemics.
Parents and teachers should be
particularly watchful to isolate cases
of scarlet fever. diphtheria and
other childhood diseases. Scarlet
fever may occur in so mild a form
tina there may not even be a rash,
yet it can still be contagious for two
months or more. Diphtheria can be
carried by a healthy school child to
his classmates il someone in the
family has had it recently.
Many epidemics in the schools can
be traced directly to a family where
a child had maybe a mild attack of
some disease during the vacation
months. The child may, to all ap-
pearances. have recovered complete
ly, yet be still a carrier of disease.
If you have any suspicion that
there has been a childhood disease
in your family during the summer,
consul your physician or local
health officer Immediately.
Schools are the healthiest possible
places for children, provided proper
precautions are taken to quarantine
cases of contagious disease.
In any place where a large group
of people are together the chances
of c%ontagion are doubly great. Chill
dren r especially susceptible 10
c~hickenpox, diphtheria, German
measles, mumps, scarlet fever, and
whooping-cough. The child who
shows symptoms of any of these
should be kept from school, not only
to insure his w proper care, but
to avoid danger to others.

then sift again with remaining dry

Thoroughly mix, beat well, add
nuts and turn into a well creased
bread pan. Let stand for N hour
then bake two hours in a moderate
oven.

Very wide bertha collars are be-
ing shown for autumn wear. When
they are of the sort that come with
the dress they are often made of the
material itself and trimmed with
embroidery or beading.
When they are of the detachable
variety they are usually made of
sheer lace or net trimmed with lace.
They open front and back or only
in the back.
The soft transparent folds of the
very wide ones are most becoming
from which it is safe to argue that
their new popularity is assured.

year before Congress adopted the
Eighteenth Amendment there was a
great conference between American
distillers, American brewers and the
Anti-Saloon League. The distillers
knew, and had known for ten years,
that prohibition lay ahead unless some
compromise with the drys could be
affected. The brewers were blind and
stubborn.
1.-The Anti-Saloon League had de-
cided that it could never make the
country entirely dry so they offered
the distillers and the brewers COM
promise. They said that in exchange
for the abolition of the saloon and the
limitation of alcoholic beverages to
beer and wines they would quit agita-
ton and call it deal. The distillers
agreed but the brewers refused.
