FEVER INCUBATION

All school children. in Bessemer
who desire treatment may be inocu-
lated against typhoid fever free of
cost during the spring months, ac-
cording to officials of the county
board of health. The first children
were given the serum treatment at
the boards office in the courthouse
last Friday and health board officials
will visit Spring Hill High school and
the Grammar school there on Friday
afternoon of this week. Other rural
schools of this section will be visited
in rotation and it is urged that
parents have their children take the
treatment.
1t has not been decided yet Wheth err
the health officials will visit the
Bessemer schools or have the chill
dren come to the office of the board
at the court house. On account of
the large enrolment in the city
schools and the fact that the office
is conveniently located it is thought
best to have the children come there.

French seize more
RUHR TERRITORY
Occupy Intervals Between the
BridgeheadS of MayenCe,
CObIenz and Cologne.

DusseldOrf.-The French advanced
troops into all the intervals which
separate the bridgeheads of Mayence,
COblenz and Cologne
These bridgeheads, which were &C.
cuied as one of the conditions of the
aTmistice and which are to remain in
occupation under the peace treaty for
fifteen years from the commencement
Of the execution Of the treaty, formed
three separate semi-circles having
each a radius Of thirty kiIometers. Be
tween them there was in each case a
short space at the base Of the arc and
naturally e wider space at the eXtrem-
ity It is these intervening spaces
which have now been occupied, max
ing the zone Of occupation a cOntinu-
Gus stretch Of thirty kilometers east
of the Rhine.
The reason for this extension of oc-
cupation is the necessity of having a
definite line for customs control So
long as the arcs were not contiguous
it was difficult for the French to estab-
lish the customs and export license
systems which have been prepared.
The situation arose in which firms on
the right bank Of the line, but just
outside the thirty kiIometer radius,
were entirely outside the control
One Of the mOstc urious results Of
the extension is that the British
bridgehead at Cologne will be almost
cut off from Germany by the French
troops, which will surround it on eoch
side They have filled the gap be.
tween the Coblenz and Cologne
bridgeheads.
