Captain James F. Quigley, head of

F. Hyland, both former police chiefs
here. In 1920, Quigley purchased
Hyland's interests.

detecting dishonest clerks in stores.
The company also specializes in
criminal work and has been able in
the last few years to capture several
men wanted for murder, burglary,
and other crimes where the cases
seemed hopeless.
Another important phase of its
work is to handle cases of fraudu-

investigators being required for this
phase.

SEASONAL SICKNESS

The first four months of 1928 went
down in history in the counties Of the
State of Maryland, with a less favor
able record, so far as the occurrence
of communicable diseases was con-
cerned, than the corresponding period
for 1927 had, but with much better
record than that of the same months
in 1926. The reports of the Bureau
of Communicable Diseases of the state
department of health show that 1889
cases were reported during January,
February, March and April of the cur
rent year; 6646 during the correspond
ing period of 1927 and 12,798 during
the first four months of 1926.
Commenting on these figures, DIR.
R. H. Riley, assistant director of the
State department of health, said;

THE MINISTRY OF MEMORY

Deuteronomy 24:1S-Thou shalt re-
member!
Did you ever stop to think that
there would be no Christian religion
and no Christian Church today but
for the faculty of memory?
The Master Himself wrote nothing
except upon the sand. His immedi-
ate disciples wrote nothing-at the
time-about His life and teachings.
1t was many years after His death be-
fore the written gospels were made.
The Master inscribed His parallels
and teachings, not upon parchment,
but upon the hearts of His disciples.
And by means of these living records
they were kept perhaps twenty or
thirty years. before the first written
narrative came into existence. Dur
ing that interval it was only in the
memories of men that the Glad It'd
ings lived.
This was possible because the He
brew people were trained to remem-
her accurately. Their education was
largely the education of the memory.
When the first written records were
made, it was not because the Chris
tians themselves needed them, but
solely for the purpose of carrying the
old, old story to new converts in dis
tant lands.
The early Christians kept their
Scriptures in their hearts. We keep
them in the bookcase or on the parlor
table. 1t is so much easier to keep
them there. But, oh, the pity of it!
Never before were there so many
printed Bibles as we have today; ami
never so few Bibles written in the
souls of men!
We do not know how our souls are
impoverished by this failure to store
in our memories the treasures of Gods
Word
Of course, our memories may be
just as full as were those of the early
Christians-only full of a differe It
quality of goods. Our memories are
often like disordered old garrets, filled
with an incalculable amount of value
less junk, Uttered with crime sheets
and scandal pages. In these garret
memories all the old family quarrels
are stored away. All the meanness,
the bitterness, the ugliness of the past
are carefully preserved to be brought
forward whenever the occasion may
demand. And all things are shrouded
in the cobwebs of selfishness and I'M
brotherliness.
A thorough housekeeping is need
ed We must clear away all this con-
temptible rubbish. We must reform
our memories, lest, instead of uphold
ing US in our struggles with tempta-
ton, they prove to be millstones abou,
our necks.
We need to store our memories
with whatsoever things are true,
whatsoever things are honest, whatso-
ever things are just, whatsoever
things are lovely, whatsoever things
are of good report.
In a word, we need to store our
memories with the treasures of the
Scriptures.

'The increase during the current year
and the flare-up in 1926 were due very
largely to the prevalence of measles
and of pneumonia--whic often fol-
lows measles. Out of the 1899 cases
of communicable diseases reported
during the first four months, this
year, measles led with 2570 cases; and
pneumonia came next with 995 cases,
these two diseases being responsible
for nearly half of the sickness regis
tered during that time. Scarlet fever
losis fourth with SOP cases. Other
diseases were reported as follows
chicken poX 453 cases; influenza 1863;
humps 262; diphtheria 1876; whoop-
ing cough 146; German measles 1877;
typhoid fever 70; erysipelas SO; sep
tic sore throat Al; smallpox 7; infan~

with 1851 cases; pneumonia came the
next with 1176 cases; scarlet fever

During the first four months of 1926
measles was widely prevalent, 5,273
cases being reported. Influenza came
next with 2,731 cases, and pneumonia
was third with 1920 cases.
Certain months in each season are
likely to be more favorable than some
others, depending very often on the
weather conditions. The most favor
able month this season was January
with record Of 1897 cases of conf
municable sickness reported. The
least favorable was March with 2,270
