BY the results of last years work
favorable sentiment was created for
the continuation of the work. During
the coming year work is planned in
community hygiene and betterment
which will give every precinct in this
county advantages heretofore only en-
joyed by the people living in cities.
One of the outstanding features of
this quarter is the enactment of an
ordinance of the council regulating
the sale of milk and milk products in
the city OF Maysville The health de-
partment cooperated with the council
and collected ordinances of this kind
for their consideration. The act will
go into effect November list, giving
ample time for any necessary change
and installations. The most vital re-
quirement Of the ordinance is the test
ing of dairy cattle for tuberculosis.
This test will be given free by a vet
erinarian detailed by the L. S. Govern
ment for this work. Any animals
found infected will be appraised by a
special board and the owner reimburs-
ed by the government for the value OF
the condemned animal.
The Federal government will begin
area testing soon in this county, not
only examining dairy cows, but al
cattle in the county will be given the
tuberculin test and the reactors elm
mated from the herds.
1t has been demonstrated conclus'
lively that COWS infected with tubercu
losis spread this disease to children
who drink the milk. About 10 per cen
OF all children affected with tubercu
losis acquire 1t through infected milk
To have only mild sold in the cit.
limits from tested cows signalizes al
immense forward step. 1t indicates al
awakening of the public spirit and in
telligence and points the way for al
enlarged program for communit
health and sanitation.

ment for Mason county for another
year is fully assured.
A COPY of the directors report to the
International Health Board follows:
It is with great pleasure that the d.
rector Is able to announce that all
agencies that contribute to the support
OF the health department have made
their appropriations for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1928.
The state of Kentucky and the In
ternational Health Board make their
commitments only contingent upon
the local authorities making theirs.
The Mason County Fiscal Court
early in April made the usual allow
ance OF three thousand dollars for the
continuation of the work.
The Maysville city council some
time later made the regular appropria-
ton OF one thousand dollars.
1t is very gratifying to note that an
advisory committee composed OF
Maysville's most representative and
influential citizens appointed by the
mayor to investigate and report on the
| financial status of the city govern
ment, unanimously recommended thai
the maintenance OF the health depart
ment be made permanent part OF thu
city budget. This report was adopted
by the city council, and now the foun
dalton for a permanent department o
health seems firmly established In thi
city and county.
The situation now resolves itself in
to this: public health is paid for II
advance an entire year In Mason ooun
ty and It devolves upon the entir
stan to give value received for thi
money. y 'lNNlB

emphatically record the fact that the
past year was the most successful one
i'll the history of Mason county. The
schools were practically free from
contagious diseases, and in no in
stance were Their indications of an cpl
demic. The health officer and nurses
made frequent visits to the schools,
often in response to requests from the
teachers. Suspicious cases were sent
home, thus preventing long contact
with the we'll children.
A special search was made for diph-
iberia carriers among school children
any many chronic and convalescent
carriers were found. Appropriate
treatment was recommended and
given in these cases.
The occurrence of four cases of ty-
phoid fever in Maysville and vicinity
during the quarter, produced consid-
cradle uneasiness and almost alarm in
some quarters. These cases were
carefully Investigated and all sources
Of possible infection followed up. In
all cases the water and milk supply
was eliminated as responsible for the
disease. The conclusion was arrived
at that these cases were isolated and
sporadic and due to some food infect
ton.
The health department is amply
supplied with typroid vaccine and Is
prepared to furnish this vaccine free
to physicians and to vaccinate all who
| apply
No new cases have developed, thus
proving the correct the conclusion
formed by the director.
The director of the health depart
lment was requested by the official II

GO BACK TO RUSSIA TO DIE
Soldiers of Car, Broken in Body and
Shattered in Mind, Return From
German War Prisons.

MOscow.-Ghosts of the old Russia
are coming back to haunt the custo
dams of the new.
| They are the bodies of faithful
| soldiers of the car, living on after
| mentality has fed. They come, four
carloads of them, from the German
war prisons, where frghtfulness Of
Imprisonment and memories of the
battlefield drove out reason from
those it did not kill.
There are other thousands of them,
hopeless, nervous, twitching wrecks
of men, quaking at the slightest sound
They are coming back four years after
the remainder of humanity knew that
the cause for which they fought had
won, though the institution for which
they fought was wrecked.
Punched, wan faces look out with
uncomprehending eyes from behind
the barred windows Of the train into
Russia they never knew A red flag
has replaced the standard which they
loved. Now they are coming to the
guardianship of the Bolsheviki, the
sworn enemy of their Little Father.
The Soviet department of health is re-
ceiving them, placing them in asylums,
where they will live over again and
again the scenes of battle until the
end.
Transportation of these war victims
has been delayed these four years for
lack of facilities. Russia had been
unable to care for her able-bOdied and
mentally alert citizens. Things are
better now and arrangements are be-
ing made to bring back all of Russia's
insane from German camps.

BOOZE WRAPPERS FOR PIC

What is the most difficult task in

Finding an absinthe BOTTLE" ans
wers the property man for William
d. Taylor, Paramount producer.
The Eighteenth Amendment makes
it harder under any circumstances to
find "booze wrappers"-but those of
the absinthe kind are almost unpro-
durable as the drink has been pro-
hlbited in France, its native country,
for 10, these many years.
1t took ten days to find the three
absinthe bottles which are vital props
in Sacred and Profane Love" starring
Elsie Ferguson, which will be shown
at the Kenworthy theatre Wednesday,
The absinthe plays prominent
part in the production as it is the eff
forts of Carlotta played by Miss Fer
guson, to regenerate the sodden Diaz
that provide some of the most dra
matte incidents in the entire picture.
