owners to cover injuries and damages
done wouldn't be received with favor
by many reckless drivers, but a lot of
the careful ones would receive it with
favor, as nAded protection to them
selves as well as the public.

FIGHTING pIPHTHERlA

One doesn't wish to get immune to
diphtheria by being subjected to va
rious contagious and il he is lucky
enough to live become immune to
diphtheria, yet that is the way more of
the children of the city slums become
immune than those who are better
protected. Among the latter diphthe-
ria takes its toll and it is becoming
increasingly heavy.
What is known as the Schick test,
which originated in Austria but has
been perfected in this country, con-
sists of a series of injections of diph-
iberia toxin and antitoxin. This does
not supplant the use of the diphtheria
serum which is used in active cases
of the disease but is used to deter
mine whether the patient is suscepti-
BILE to the disease, also to create in
the person his own immunity. 1t is
estimated that in New York City
eighty per cent of the children have
so been rendered immune to the dis
ease. It is hoped thus to be able to
wipe out the disease altogether.

Think It is a Maine
Baby Abandoned
At Woodstock. n. 3.

Woodstock, y. b, March 2S.-IWo
facts had been established Monday in
connection with an abandoned child
found during the weekend wrapped
in a blanket at the door Of house in
Conner street with a sob" note at
tached.
One fact is that the child was ap-
parently not born in Woodstock but
was brought in by the persons who
thus disposed of it and the other is
that the child had not been attended
by a physician at its birth.
1t is now believed that the child
was brought here in conveyance
from some point in Maine, the boun-
Diary line being only 1G miles away.
and Chief of Police Owen Kelly is
confident that the threat contained
in the note that the mother was
about to go to a watery grave" was
a mere bluff to mislead the authori-
tics.
While the child's feet were frozen.
the latest reports To Chief Kelly
from the hospital are that it will re-
cover. The baby is not over four
DAYS old. it was said, and is husky
and healthy aside from conditions
neglected at its birth and its suffer-
ing from cold and exposure.

With 4 persistence that suggests
disciplined propaganda. paid plat
form proclaimers, popular pulpi-
teers, socialist salvationists, writers
high and writers low are informin z
the public of tho waning influence
OF the American home.
AS a matter of fact, the homes Of
America never were more exalted
in worth. never more potential in in
fluence than they arc today. The
claptrap of nosing and neurotic re
formers and the drivel of profession
al moral detectives in respect to this
discussion is enough to disgust all
normal and wholesome natures.
Men and women-the vast worthy
rank and fle-marrv today, as in all
other days, in order to csta blish
homes where love and its natural
expression. children. will Justify the
Unborn desire for happiness.
Men and women today love their
children with love as deep as that
with which nature lowered parents
in the beginning. and it is a higher
and more helpful love. To this re-
fined and cnnoblcd affection children
respond with inherent fidelity and
warmth.
The American home of today rcp-
rcsents the highest type of family as
ISOLATION on the face of the earth.

There is no sense in raising a. cry
of exaggerated alarm because among
so many thousands trying to set to

ContagiOn.
Sorting out processes, for which
the law provides, arc ample for de-
Tense against the menace. But the

Egypt. or leprosy from the Far East.
must be used ceaselessly at every

FAVORABLE REPORT

In the constructive work for the
prevention of clandestine prostitu-
ton and in protective work for girls,
DR.. Valeria H. Parker of the L. S.
Inter departmental Social Hygiene
Board says the question is largely
one of education. Better civic con-
ditions, better housing, the elimina-
ton of tenement rookcrics which
breed crime and disease. better light
ing and supervision she declares arc
behind the elimination of delinquent
cv. There is a clearer understanding
of the dangerous effects of social dis
case and the influence of women in
politics is expected to contribute
materially to the work.
1t is very gratifying to learn from
her that New England is remarkably
free from openly operated CONNER
cialized vice and there is not sim
gle rcd light district in this part of
the country. Wisdom contributes to
decencv if it doesn't always change
the heart.
