cials Of the public health service re-
ported yesterday. A total Of 676 cases

encephalitis lethargica, was reported
for the first three months, with tn >
week ending March showing 80.

81 being 81.
Public health officials pointed cut
that the figures were not exact, since
the germ OF the disease has not been
definitely isolated. Physicians in a
number of cases have confused the
diseases. One case recently reported
as sleeping sickness" turned out to
be coma resulting from a mastoid In
fection.

linois plan," which was later adopted
in Nebraska, is q complete failure
from the standpoint Of political sci
ence, a. it takes from the people the
power which is justly theirs and Gre
ates of their elected officers mere fig
ureheads without power; it deprives
the citizen of his control Of the gov
ernment and removes the incentive
even to votoe
Why not then again renew one faith
with our forefathers, with the trainers
Of our constitution, with the builders
of our government? Why not return
to the executive branch of government
the power to execute the laws? Why
not return to men charged with the
administration of the laws power to
administer them? Such is the object
Of the Lambert bill.
AS the sapling grew straight and
trim in its infancy, SO by the applica-
tfon of the pruning hook may it be re.
turned to thing of beauty and useful
ness. 1t is not necessary to destroy
the entire fabric of government, but
only desirable that we shape it in its
original mold, and return the power
which rightly is theirs to the people
and permit the administrative officers
to control every branch of administra-
tive government, to formulate rules
and regulations which will fix the con
duct of every clerk and require of
every man though he be under civil
service, that he do the state 8 business
in accordance with the will of the

A FLU REMEDY

Mr.. Kruger of the Glenwood Hot
Springs company has the following
remedy to offer for the flu or any
cold:
Pour 2-3 ounces of nitric acid
in a bowl or saucer and ad a
small piece of copper or a copper
penny.
Don't hold your face over it. Fumi-
gate every room and keep it on an ele-
waited place so that children cannot
reach it. After two or three days
pour the green solution off and renew
the acid and copper if dissolved.
Keep this always in your room; it
purifies the air.
This remedy has saved hundreds of
Indians in Oklahoma.

WHO'S WHO IN G. O. H. 8.
(By a Committee of interested
Students)


An eastern paper had in it the other
day an editorial whose main thought
was to convey the idea that the public
knows who is on the basketball team,
it knows who takes part in dramatics,
but it does not know who leads in
scholarship.
Since G. G. II. s. is on the accred-
tied list, and she is, with good rec
ord of scholarship for this year; it
would be well to convey some idea as
to who helped to put it in the place
which it now occupies. The teachers
who give their time and labor cannot
put it there. The principal cannot put
it there, neither can the superintend.
ent. Everyone working in close CO.
operation, with each and every stu
dent doing his best can accomplish
great things in the way of scholarship.
