Little Rock Letter

The latest theory about Radio, one
of the latest and least understood
miracles of the day, is that its eXces-
sive use has brought about an atmos-
pheric condition that has caused the
prOtracted drought throughout the
country. This theory however is not
supported by scientists. The utiliza
tiOn of latent electric forces should. if
anything have the opposite effect and
produce rain. But there are people
who are always looking for the myster-
ious. The Radio superstition will
probably became popular and will take
its place among the accepted follies of
mankind. including Friday the thir-
teenth, broken mirrors, rain on a we'd
ding day, black cats, fortune telling
and the host of other foolish things
that worry the minds and disturb the
slumbers of so many people.

ON HEALTH HOW GERMS TRAVEL

In addition to being carried about by insects and animals, such as mosquitoes, flies and rats, disease germs often are transmitted from one person to another in the air
 Mir Mann learned from his wife.
 And sometimes, instead of travel ing by air, they are left on door knobs, faucets, push buttons, or any object with which an infected person may have come in contact.
 The most direct type of transfer, however, is that which occurs when an infected person coughs or sneezes in the face of a susceptible

victim.
 This often happens in street cars, and in crowded buildings.
 Stay away from crowds If you want to escape colds, influenza and many other maladies," doctors ad- wise.
 Most everyone is familiar with the meaning of the word epidemic. There are epidemics of colds, measles, whooping cough scarlet fever. smallpox, sore throat and chicken pOX.
 Reasons for these epidemics lies in carelessness of infected indi- viduals.

Lillian Changes Her Mind After Conference with Lee Chow.

Conference with Lee Chow.
 Linian's conference with Lee Chow lasted nearly half an hour the while l kept guard outside the door of our little upstairs sitting room as my friend had requested, None of the Ticcrs appeared, all though surmiscd that If either Sam or Jerry had known the Chi neso was upstairs, the widest horses could not have kept them from some pretcndcd errand 10 our second floor.
 Mrs. Ticcr's disarproval of the admission of the Oriental 10 the house was patent in her high flung head and inc stiffness of her pos lure as escorted Lee Chow through the kitchen 10 the outer door and into the yard, But her compressed lips told me that she would not TO- peat her disrcgarded warning of a few minutes before.
 To my amuscment, saw in Lee Chow's face and manner traces of excitement, faint 10 be sure, but in- congruous with his demeanor as l had known it. He faced me with eyes positively gieaming, although his tones were the same monoton- ous chant to which l had become accustomed.
 "AIissee Underwood yer smart boss lady" he assured me. "She know everything, sec everything, fi' everything, You tell her all yol know, trust her. I tell her all abou big boss man. She tell you what tell her"
 He made me a low salaam anC padded swiftly away. I looked afte him puzzled as to whether l should laugh or be angry.
 Madge Is Piqued
 When he had appeared from no where with his tale of being Hugl Grantland's servant, bequeathed a . sort of dying gift 10 me, he ha demanded my help in solving tn mystery of his masters disappear ence. He told me that at the frs opportunity he would tell me every thing he knew. Now he had a fe7 minutes conversation with Lillian and in effect was politely telling m ,khat any further information on tn subject of Hugh Grantland mus come from her.
 My affection for Lillian and m admiration of her abilities prompt rame to my aid and conquered th foolish pique which Lee Chow shifting of allegiance had given mt With sudden appreciation of tn humor of the situation, began laugh, and I made my way to Lii Hans room, with mirth still UT ebated.
