Home Builder, Enters New Field
Well Posted on Property.

Mr.. Lee Williams, popular Sixth
ward grocer and extensive property
owner, announces his advent into the
real estate business. Mr.. Williams
issues this card to the public:
mo many knows Maysville better
than l. I have worked ON ninety per
cent. of her homes and have seen the
East End Of the city develop from
corn fields into one of the prettiest
residential sections of our city.
81 have built many homes myself,
finished every part up-to-date myself
and for this reason I can be of much
more service to you in the selection
of home than those not posted on
every phase Of property values and
workmanship.
ut will be a~real pleasure to show
you many homes I have built myself
without the aid of other workmen and
you will then realize why l can be
Of the most service to you. If I have
mt house on my list to please you,
I will build one to please you from
any plan you may suggest.
"The man who doesn't own a home
today should begin to think and make
a purchase at once. Lumber is getting
scarce and Maysville property is ad-
vancing rapidly. Building lots are
scarce and now is the time to buy.

SMALLPOX SITUA.

Further Spread Of
Disease.
tBy DIR. v. d. Guittard, Director Ma

tBy DIR. V. ID. Guittard, Director Ma
son County Health Dept)
There are at present few cases Of
smallpox In this city. There always
will be smallpox in community un-
Ill every one gets vaccinatcd.
In Ohio, as In many other states
quarantine Is no longer established
against smallpox. The health author
tiles In many states take this attitude; ;
II any one refuses such a simple and
reliable means AZ vaccination to pre-
vent the diease. well and good, let
them have smallpox then.
Citizens OF this county would be
more In harmony with the latest prac-
tice In this regard, II instead OF re-
.quiring strict quarantine against cases
Of smallpox. they would themselves
and their families get vaccinated.
The time is coming in Kentucky
also when cases OF smallpox will not
be quarantined
In every case OF smallpox occurring
In this county fears are expressed that
the cases are not held strictly enough
irs quarantine. Complaints often come
In to the local health department that
this or that persons is not observing
the quarantine strictly. II the people
who make these complaints were vac
cinated. what should they then have
to fear!
The fact Ia that II every one In the
community were vaccinated, an occa-
sional imported case need cause no
alarm whatever.
Why should II be necessary to iso-
late and cage people who are unfortu-
nate enough to be sick with smallpox.
Just to protect people who refuse to
be vaccinated?
The inspection OF the school child
rem In Mason county showed that 1000
OF the 5000 examined were not vac
cinated against smallpox. This num-
ber Is rapidly being reduced. Nearly
500 schol. children have been vaccin-
ated during the last few weeks
