SCARLET FEvERl

4 With all the precautions taken SO
Z far during this term of school, / fear
we are in the midst Of scarlet fever
epidemic, which. heretofore has been
menace to our city, and rural
schools, which at times have had to
be discontinued to control the cpl
edemic and I am sure a number Of
times they have been allowed to con-
tinue too long. AS we all know this
is quite expensive, to say nothing
about the danger. We consider scar
let fever one of our most dreaded
diseases. Not only from the disease
itself, but from complications and
after-effects, which greatly impair
health and not uncommonly causes
death.
IS Therefore it behooves us all to be
on the lookout for any suspicious
case of throat infection, simple rash
fevers as light case of scarlatina,
hardly noticeable in one child, will
produce virulent case in another.
Some cases are so mild that we do
not have skin symptoms. These light
cases are our greatest sources of dan
ger, as the child may be able to go
to school, eat three meals day, with
very little or in fact, no symptoms
in the throat.
The purpose of this paper is to
caution parents, relative to these very
light cases. If there is any suspic-
ion on your part or any complaints
from the child, would examine
carefully for redness and inflamma-
ton of throat; also inspect the skin
and kernels under the angles of the
jaw and more especially for temper
AZURE. First because child with tenn
perature is really not able to attend
school and it is constant symptom
of an infectious disease at some per-
iod. l would insist that you do not
try to send child to school with
hopes of getting by, with contag-
ious disease because really this is not
good citizenship, saying nothing of
the injustice of it..
am sure this is not an uncom-
mon practice among some families.
If there is any question in your mind
relative to the child's health, keep
it away from others in family, espe-
cially away from school, until the
symptoms have developed or subsid-
ed, or opinion from physician is OBJ
tanned. l would also caution you
regarding visiting sick relatives or
friends with sick children, unless you
arr sure that both families are per-
fectly well, as this is one of our great
est sources of contagion and spread
of disease. Railway trips are not
unusual source of contagion. For

J. II. 5. PARENT
TEACHERS MEETING

The Junior High School Parent
Teachers meeting was well attend
ed last Thursday afternoon. The
children's part of the program was
enjoyed by all. The following num-
bers were given:
Violin solo-Ray Cure.
Original Poems-Paul Sturdivant.
Vocal Solo-Louise Meredith.
Many new ideas were obtained
from the interesting discussions CIV
en- upon the subject of 'The Good
American Does His Duty" Looking
upon the child as a good American
topics were used. First: "The Duty
of the Child at Home" by Mrs. G. c.
Quigley. Second "The Duty of the
Child at School," by Mrs. c. M.
Light. Third, "ThesDuty of the Child
in the Community" by Mrs. Ell
bridge. Many personal references
were given in the discussion which
brought the reality of the subject
close home. Several new members
were pledged. We hope to obtain the
required number of members during
the next month so we can place our
membership with the National Asso-
citation. At every meeting some of
the Junior high girls remain to en-
terrain the children that the. mothers
bring.
1t was decided at the meeting that
this year be made "Gift Thanks
giving" in Junior High. Each child
may bring, in the way of food, what
he willingly would like to give, for
a gift from the heart results in hap
piness. The food given will be TAX
en- to the deserving. Many women
in our town are, by their own eff
forts, cheerfully supporting their
own families and we wish to add a
little encouragement and a bit of
cheer to their Thanksgiving. The
goal of the "Gift Thanksgiving" is
that the giving and receiving be done
with a willing spirit.

quently making desperate effort to
get home before they develop some
contagion, having contracted or been
exposed to it while visiting.
It's indeed necessary that thor
ough house cleaning and fumigation
be done after an infected person has
recovered. By observing these sug-
gestions you will probably be able to
void quarantining schools, theaters
and other places where people neces-
sarily congregate; at the same time
obviate the necessity of long quar-
antine and expenses and probably ia
talities.

WHAT WOMEN WILL DO.
DO AT POLLS NOV. 7.
is kROUSING INTEREST.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-"What will
the women do?" now is the question
on the lips of innumerable political
candidates and managers, and most of
them admit that the answer will not
be known until after the votes on
Nov. are counted.
The "women's vote" is a big factor
in many campaigns, congressional and
gubernatorial as we'll as local in the
present campaign, and veteran politi-
cal leaders, of the male persuasion at
least, declare it remains an unknown
factor in most cases. In many cam
paigns, the women, 1t is said, hold the
balance of power and the election will
swing as the feminine votes fall. Dry
candidates, for the most part. are rely
ing heavily upon feminine support
while in some congested centers the
''wets" are claiming a share or major
ity of the woman vote.
Can't AnaIyze Vote
Women have secured the ballot gen.
orally SO recently that the male poll
tician, according to information here,
have not yet gotten line accurate
" on feminine action at the polls.
Women's organizations have been
built up with in both Republican and
Democratic parties and also the So
cialist and Prohibition. but these or
ganizations have not yet begun func-
tioning, it is said, with the accuracy
of the male element
Women speakers are numerous and
women voters have been polled, card
indexed and otherwise corralled on pa
per, but astute politicians declare that
it still remains impossible to forecast
the Swing" of the feminine voters TO
any point of accuracy. Even the num-
Der of women voters on Nov. Z is un.
certain, despite registration require.
ments. Heavy primary voting, it is
declared. does not insure 100 per
cent vote of women on election day.
Women cast their largest vote in the
1920 presidential election, after ratifi
cation of the suffrage amendment, but
future feminine voting is expected tC
be much larger The total popular
vote cast in 1920 was about 26,660, 00G
as compared with 1S.52S, 900 four years
before. While politicians do not be
lieve that the total increase was due
to woman suffrage. they are sure thai
large proportion of the new millions
OF electors was of the feminine sex
previous presidential years showing
but comparatively small increases
The politicians doubt, however, thai
the feminine interest in the congress
ional bi-election will be as large as
two years ago.

MANY of our boys and girls are drop

fail to let them find expression in their
youth, and that boys and girls viii
never know Christ only through US
The spiritual uplift is what makes the
church effective and not the number
of membership in the church"
He spoke of the literature of the
church, which should be real litera
ture. ''If we make good church folks
we must give more time to our boys
and girls in Christian religious train
ing. We should not spend SO much
money in our public schools for the
child's education only. The steward
