turned Victor Over Melrose
Outlaw Foremen

With the completion of st.
Boniface Hall ait Melrose, bowling
has become one of the active past
times of this community. No less
than 16 fve-men teams have been
organized and the alleys are
crowded every evening. M. Wer-
mig, manager of the Pioneer Ice
Cream Co., of this city, decided to
throw little pep into the Melrose
tourney so he organized the De-
Lish-O team of this city, consist
ing of Ed Hansen, Charles Harri-
son, Tucker, Henry Thiegs, and
M. Wernig. Tuesday evening they
visited Melrose and met up with
the Outlaw Fireman team and in
a three game series defeated them
by II points, making the highest
scores on the Melrose alleys since
they have been opened. Twenty
years or so ago Messrs. Hansen
and Harrison were clever in
smashing the naples, and Thiegs
and Tucker have shown their
wares at Melrose quite recently.
During Mr.. Wernig's residence in
Milwaukee several years ago he
became proficient. The scores
made by Sank Centre Tuesday ev-
ening were not startling but they
were sufficiently large to secure
the respect of the Melrose "Outr

forced the price in both New York

Scarlet Fever
Under Control
Health Authorities Do Not Antic-
ipate Epidemic in Sank Gen.
tire - Hundreds Inoculated.

Sank Centre people have been
more or less concerned the past
week over the prevalence of Scar
let Fever in the city. Three fam
lilies are affected with the disease
in mild form: Roy Scott, O. w.
Dowswell and ". G. Wedge.
Miss v. "A. Anderson, Public
School nurse, is very busy observ-
ing the several hundred children
in the Public Schools. In an inter-
view with the Herald Miss Ander-
son said that while the present
cases were quite light, it was the
experience they increased in vio-
lence as the epidemic progressed.
She says that children who have
sore throats or feel .indisposed
should be kept at home. If a child
develops a rash doctor should be
called at once. Light cases of
scarlet fever ay'escape the detec-
ton of even the most intelligent
and conscientious parents. Such
cases may be a potent source of
danger to the whole community.
Science has provided an inocu-
lation serum which when used in
time makes a. child absolutely i'm
mune from the fever. Since the
first cases developed in this city
the local physicians have been very
busy vaccinating youngsters and
adults, and the supply of serum on
hand has been exhausted a number
of times. There is also a serum to
be given a person afflicted which
greatly lessons the danger of the
malady.
Because of prompt action by
school authorities and care by the
parents of the afflicted children
health authorities do not antici-
pate any serious results in this
city.
