Coast GuarA Lecturer.

Among the government brodacasts
from SAA the lectures prepared by
the United States coast guard per-
haps are the most thrilling. Since
January the coast guard has been
broadcasting semiweckIy stories OF
the activities OF that service. which
included dramatic tales of rescues at
sea.
The United States coast guard is an
organization which constitutes q part
OF the military forces Of the govern
ment. In time Of peace It operates
under the direction OF the Secretary
of the Treasury and under the df-
rection OF the Secretary Of the Navy,
IN time OF war. In 1915 the Congress
combined the then existing revenue
service into the ono organisation. the
coast guard. The United States
coast guard IL, therefore, not a new
structure recently built up in this
country. but Is one whose concep-
tion dates back to the early days fol-
lowing the war Of the revolution.
The coast guard is one of the mill
tary services Of the country Its YES
sells are armed: its officers and men
are trained for the acts and circum-
stances OF war as well Is schooled in
the methods and Injured to the hard
ships of the sea Military training
and discipline are found to be of the
greatest value in the humanitarian
work which the service Is called upon
to perform. bringing promptness and
precision to the rendering Of relief
in time OF distress and disaster. At
the Same time this training and disci-
pltne Mt the personnel to enter into
operation with the Navy when ncces-
sary, providing an auxiliary force Of
great value to the country in time of
war
The principal peace-tlme duty of
the coast guard Is the rendering Of
assistance TO vessels in distress and
the saving Of fife and property at
sea and along our seacoasts and on
the great lakes. The United States
became a pioneer among the govern
ments Of the world in thus assuming,
as an obligation of its own govern
ment, the organized and continuous
rescue and relief Of the seafarer who
might be left in distress by the ole
ments. among which he lives and earns
his livelihood. Many are the stories
of shipwreck at sea or on the heaeh
which this service can relate and
in which It has participated 1T the

WELL IS GIVEN AS
SOURCE OF INFECTION
Health Department Finds Lewisburg
Water Dangerous

Guilty was the verdict pro-
hounced Wednesday morning in the
city laboratory on the well in Lewis
burg that has been under suspicion
for causing the recent typhoid cpl
demic there.
ForelEn natter was found in the
WaeIr to an extent that caused Dr.
}. ID. Bowling, city and county health
officer. to believe beyond reasonable
doubt that the source of infection is
the we'll.
Vt times samples of the water from
this well have shown entire purity,
leading to the belief that it is subject,
termittent pollution. With this in
MIND. samples Were taken daily and
particular attention was paid to sam
pies analysed after recent rains. The
evidence was strong enough for con-
viction.
The we'll furnished the water used
by the Lewisburg schools. Nearly
all of the typhoid cases were among
school children. DIR. Bowling has
conferred with the owners of the well
and necessary precautions and i'm
proVements will be taken and made
TO insure purity i'm the future. As
long as the water is used with
out these precautions. Dr. Dowlnss
says, scattered cases of typhoid can
be looked for.
second incubation of the school
children with anti-typhoid serum will
be given Thursday. All desiring the
treatment in the infected area can
get it.
