KEEPING WELL SMALLPOX AND VACCINATION
DIR. FREDERICK \. GREEN Editor of "HEALTH"

TO-DAY. with the world compara. \ lively free from smallpox cpl. denies, one can hardly imagine the scourge this terrible disease once was. Of all great epidemic diseases. 1t was the most terrible and devastating in Its ravages. Less than two hundred years ago. smallpox was much more prevalent than Is measles today. It was so common in England that a criminal who escaped from prison just before the time set for his execution was advertised as having no smallpox scars on his face, that being the most striking and distinguishing character. istlc about him.
 We have records of the unchecked rayages of this loathsome diesase from the Tenth century down to little over hundred years ago. when Jen. ner. an English physician. demonstrat- ed the value of vaccination with cow pox as preventive of smallpox From that time, smallpox gradually ceased to be Of worldwide prevalence. but has continued to occur in occasional epldemics
 This comparative freedom from the disease has resulted In general care lessness and disregard ot the value of vaccination and as a consequence re ports from various sources show that there has been recent increasing prevalence of smallpox.
 Experience has proven that fhere is only one method of controlling small. po1. That is vaccination. There Is every reason to believe that If vacclna. ton were carried out at least twice Tn the life of every individual smallpox would cease to exist Tn countries where compulsory vaccination Is en- forced. records show that where chil- dren have received two vaccinations, very few cases of smallpox occur and that the cases which do appear are a very small percentage of the entire population. In these countries. deaths from the disease have almost disap- peared
 Vaccination, recently and properly performed. will prevent the occurrence Of smallpox in most persons. DO mat. ter how great the exposure. single vaccination cannot be positively relied upon to protect for life but a second vaccination within Ave or ten years will usually do so. When a vaccinated person does contract smallpox. it's severity Is greatly modified and the chance of facial disagreement Is re- duced to 8 minimum.

THE foot. like all other parts of the ! human body, Is beautiful In Its natural state. In It's unspotled beauty 1t Is seen in young children and ID members of the few tribes and racea which still so barefoot or wear only sandals to protect the feet. The nat. ural foot Is the one seen In the master pieces of the painter and the sculp tor. It Is as beautiful as the hand and as expressive of personality.
 The normal human foot Is triangular in outline, with the point of the tri. angle at the heel. The toes are slight ly separated and the bones of the foot are 80 constructed that they form a natural arch for supporting the body. The ball of the foot. which Is intended to bear the body-weight. is covered with an extra thick layer of skin, as are also the back part of the heel and the under portions of the toes. which grasp the ground in walking.
 The average human foot, however, bears little resemblance to the normal foot The toes are cramped, over. Tapped and bent; bunions distort the joints; corns grow on the toes: nails are thickened, ingrown or bent under the ends of the toes; calluses distig- ure various parts of the foot; broken arches add fiat foot" to the other de formities.
 We pity the Chinese women with their bound lilly feet" but we extend DO sympathy to the American girl with her crippled. disabled feet on which she hobbies about In shop. factory, onice or kitchen The Chinese do not expect the possessor of lilly feet" to do any work or much walking but we demand that our women retain their places In business and industrial life in spite of the physical disability of crippled feet.
 Modern shoes with their high heels and pointed toes are responsible for this universal foot deformity Such shoes prevent the spread and spring of the arch and ball of the foot which are naturally part of every step. The muscles governing this spread and spring. from lack of use. become shrunken and lose their strength This shrinking of the muscles of the foot gradually extends to the muscles of the ankles. the calves of the legs. the knees and the thighs. often to the muscles of the lower part of the trunk. The discomfort felt when walk. ing in tennis shoes or very low-heeled shoes Is due to the fact that long in. active muscles are called into action Pains In the knees and thighs. which the sufferer believes is rheumatism" are often caused by fiat foot" or broken arches.

year seem to be falling below the

running expenses of the Salvation
Army and special permission is
given the army to take up collec-

understanding of this situation a
contribution to the army almost
failed to materiali%e yesterday.
The amount needed this year is
$500. The amount taken in up TO c
o'clock last evening was $40. This
included a check for $50 from one
person and one from another for

ciety voted to give $50. The Sun
shine check will bring the fund to
approximately $500.

discouraging today.
Mayor John Durham, chairman of
the committee Of mayors and bur

were SO slight he felt confident that
after a Identification Of the atmos-
phere" they would be willing to meet
and confer within the scope of the
resolution adopted by the mayors
and burgesses at a meeting in Har-

Dec. IS. This resolution provided
that the conference be with the un-
Outstanding that either side to the
controversy shall be at liberty TO
bring up for discussion its own plan

other plan that may be offered"

preparations to spend the Christmas
holidays at his home in Springfield,

development in the situation, he said
he would leave his headquarters in
Philadelphia for Springfield late to-
day.
No intimation came from Mayor
Durham as to what his next move
would he. He did not seem to think
there was much hope for a confer
