ADVENTURE OF

castle of the king of Yum Yum Land

against a tree was Daddy Gander's

man was nowhere to be seen.

HE could have brought the cook
home and then left right away. He
didn't need to go inside and make a
visit Nancy and Nick will think
he's never coming back"

castle, and indeed out of all the
houses in Yum Yum Land. because
it was dinner time.

the crow. "The king has invited
Daddy Gander to stay to dinner.
He'll be along soon if we give him
time to finish. But you wait here
and I'll fly down and look through

Pretty soon he came back.
"Yes, that's it," he said. 1.-THE
king is at one end of the table and
Daddy Camden is at the other end
They're eating great stacks Of bread

that never. never had he eaten such

CONTROLLING RABIES.

The heavy increase in the number of cases of rabies among Birmingham ami mals reported by the director of the city laboratory is a strong argument for off cial action. Eighty-nine cases of rabies reported to the city health department from Jefferson county in one year indi- cate a potential danger to the public health, especially to children who are de- fenseless against attack by animals.
 The health authorities say that, if the city commission adopts and enforces the compulsory vaccine inoculation, the sit uation can soon be brought under con trol. England, Japan and other countries which enforce compulsory vaccine inocu- lation, have little or no rabies among their animals. The cost is not heavy, and is fully justified by results wherever the law is enforced. In some countries the government stands the expense, and It has found that it is a source of real pro lection to the pubic health. It is said by those in position to know that such treatment of animals renders them inn mune from rabies. Certainly such pro- lection against one of the worst maiadles would be large community benefit.
