Coolidge win deliver an address.
The morning session at the New

cussion Of camping, training and
education. The scouts will be re-
ceived at the White House at 1880
o'clock this afternoon.
L. L. Mcdonald, director Of the
department of camping, made sew
eral recommendations regarding

throughout the country by the Boy
Scouts, and reviewed the growth
OF camp life in popularity in the
past two decades, before the incor-
poration of the scout organization.
A free discussion Of camp prob
lens of the, different sections OF
the country followed.
Training scout executives took up
the major portion of the time
allotted to the committee on edu-
cation.
DIR. Albert K. Fretwell. of Column
bia University, took over the con-
tention on this subject in the
absence OF DIR. John H. Finley,
New York educator, who could not
be present. Discussion of the train

CASE Tres

prevented District healxil officials
from investigating the cause Of the
death Of Chief Pharmacist kenneth
MI. smith. u. S. NJ, food.poisOn vic
tim, it was learned from DR. VIII
liam c. Fowler, health officer. to-
day.
Contrary to every precedent. the
coroner turned Smiths body over
to naval physicians for examina-
ton, it was said.
No reason for this action could
be given by Deputy Coroner Jo-
seph D. Rogers, except that there
had been a hitch" in the proceed
ings. He said he didn't know how
it happened.
''I think that the District Health
Department has been very shabbily
treated" declared DIR. Fowler, ex-
physicians had so treated the con-
tents of Smiths stomach by the
use Of preservatives that further in
vestigation by his staff was i'm
possible.
It is probably the first case where
a : man dying under suspicious cir
cumstances was not submitted to
District officials for examination,
It was said,
"Of course" said DIR. Rogers"
this case don't amount to much, and
that might be the reason why the
courtesy Of making the chemical
analysis was extended to the Ma
val Hospital
In the next breath, however, the
deputy !, coroner admitted that SO
much interest had been aroused.
over the case, Smith dying few
minutes after he had eaten fried
oysters in Harvey's Restaurant,
that the inquest would be held to-
day at 1870 o'clock, rather than
postponed until Monday.
DIR. Fowler, DR.. James Cumming,
chief OF the division Of contagious
diseases, and DR.. John Noble, Dis
trict bacteriologist, are incensed at
the carelessness with which the
case has been handled.
Although they admit that the
Naval authorities might be perfect
iy capable Of making the analysis,
they said that as District Health De-
partment officials, they owed it to
the public to have joined in the
examinations.
With only a handful oa cracker
crumbs and few clammy oysters,
they claim they are badly handicap
ped in ascertaining just exactly
what caused Smiths DEATH
While obtaining their evidence at
the restaurant, Drs. Cumming and
Noble said they learned that two
of the colored walters who served
the naval party ate the oysters
that remained on the plates. No
i'll effects were suffered. it was
declared.
1t might be necessary to change
the verdict of death from ptomaine
poisoning after the inquest today,
DR.. Rogers admitted.

Large Attendance
Weekly Health Talk

DR.. Frederick T. Hill spoke in a very
interesting manner on Voice Produc-
ton and Hearing" at the health talk at
the Sisters Hospital yesterday after
noon and the audience was one of the
largest that has thus far been present
The speaker first considered sound
and its production, saying that it was
made up of three factors, which are
amplitude, frequency and the form of
the sound waves. He explained the
difference that lies between a plain
noise and a musical sound and dis
cussed at some length the relation the
different factors bear to one another
The things necessary to the produce
ton of sound, the doctor said, are
the motor, the vibrator and the reso-
nator, and he pointed out. the part
played by each Of these in the human
voice.
In his discussion of the ear and ear
troubles DR.. Hill used the blackboard
and his descriptions were made very
clear. Ear troubles arise from two
sources, ne said, and these are the
conductive and perceptive, the first
having to do with the transportation
of the sound waves into the ear and
the sesbnd dealing with disorders with
in the ear itself.
1t was announced that the health
talk next Sunday afternoon will be the
last Of the series and an especially in
teresting program will be held. The
meeting is to be in charge of the State
Board of Health and the speaker and
topic are to be announced later in the
week
