 BY DR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN Editor Journal of tho American Medical Association and of Hygeia.
 the Health Magazine
 The knowledge established rela- tive to the sanitation of swimming pools Is being applied more recently to the sanitation Of bathing beaches.
 It is usually taken for granted that the bathing beach on the shore of lake. river or ocean does not have the possibilities of transmitting infection because of the enormous dilution of the water. There is, however. the danger of infectious diseases from pollution O. the water by sewage and the danger of irrita- ton from various chemical sub- stances in the water.
 Washington Experience
 Major Willis P. Baker of tho medical corps of the United States army investigated some years ago the water in bathing beach near Washington, D. c. It was found necessary to control the bacteria in this water by chlorination.
 In order to chlorinate the water satisfactorily the chloroboat was de- veloped with an engine in the bow Of the boat to force water through the chlorination device. The water diluted with chlorine was then rein- troduced in the stern of the boat through a double hose that extends ed three feet below the surface of the water.
 The boat required two operators. one the pilot and the other to opcr- ate the chlorine apparatus and the water pumping engine. By this de- vice the concentration Of chlorine was kept about o.5 parts per million.
 It is almost impossible at q pubs lie bathing beach thoroughly to inc spect every bather before he enters the water each day. and it is neces- sary therefore to handle tfe' qucs- ton of contamination in the water rather than the bather himself. It is taken for granted that ba th- ing beaches will be controlled in tho matter Of resuscitation after dro;n- ing by the provision of proper life guards and life saving devices. " the instruction of those Tn authority at the beach in resuscitation ineas- ures. and by all of the usual precau- tions
 The rules that apply to the sani- tation of swimming pools may ho posted equally well in the locker rooma at bathing beaches,

'Canuses Get
 Gay Once More
Suspenders Are Becoming
 Things of Brilliance.
BY CURTIS WOOD


 New York. May S.-Old-timers will remember suspenders as gal luses". something that you bought for 50 cents to give Uncle John down on the farm for Christmas. Youngsters probably won't know what they are.
 Or. at least, youngsters may not have known what suspenders were until now. If they don't make their acquaintance this summer they are blind.
 For suspenders. having a re- naissance all their own. have gone in for bright colors, patterns and put shirts and sox to shame and fancy buttons. buckles and other fastenings that are tricky as sports jewelry. And 1t h most collegiate" to wear 'em.
 Prices Changed. Too
 If you think you can purchase the least of these for the old-time four-bits. you had better plan to use the old belt again this sum- mer and let your conversion to suspenders wait. They run at high as $20. But if you don't de- mand all silk you can get a rather nifty pair for from $2.s0 to $5. It's the charm of color that catches the eye and costs money in these new novelties rather than their practical function of holding up the trousers. One trick is to match the suspenders to the tie, in color and pattern. A very rich purple moire makes a smart set oi tie and suspenders. in one instance. Many Neavcs and Patterns
 Strong stripes. in such colors as gold yellow, catawba and brown purple. ochre and blue, red. white and blue and so on. are nifty foi daytime wear, So are new basket weaves that give a neat tick pattern not unlike that Of suitings. but far more colorful. Other novelties in- clude modernistic designs with such things as matches and sugar cubes, dice. or sports accessories worked out in some unique way.
 Black and white remains the snappy thing for evening wear. And of course those white satin ones. with narrow black edges that carry black enameled slides for shortening or lengthening them are so attractive that there is an urge to go to dances in one's shirt sleeves.
 For Formal Wear
 Other evening braces" carry gun. metal slides and fasteners to match the smoky pearl studs the weii- dressed Tuxedo wearer affects with his white shirt.
 Once an Englishman put out silver grey "braces" with solid silver links and tabs for fastening to the trousers They were considered "un- ntionable"-rather scandaiously frivolous. and not nice. Now Amer ican manufacturers use gold chains and fancy tabs for some suspenders and they're quite the thing. There is. in fact. premium on the unusu- al touch in such things when # comes to this seasons suspenders. As for material. they may be elastic, silk elastic. silk tubing. satin, polka-dotted or moire silk. or some fo the knitted materials. But, whatever the medium, it must be colorful or Mir. Man won't use it for his galluses.

warm: Norman left home to go on a little neighborhood errand. The trip was to have been a short one. It should not have taken Is min utes. But Norman never came back.
 Police searched the city. Farm CTS living on the outskirts of town told Of seeing man leading a weeping child through a desolate stretch of marsh and woodland. and the vicinity was ccmbed thor oughly: but no clew was found.
 The father hired private detec- tiveA Once they thought they were near success: they had a Tive tip that . man held for some petty crime in an Ohio city could tell them about the sup posed kidnaper. They hurried 10 see him. and the hopes of the Mon sons rose. But the tip was false. The detectives returned empty handed.
 At first the police believed the boy might have met with an acci- dent. They have abandoned that theory now. however. and arc convinced that he was lSidnape either for ransom or revenge s- although MonSon knows of no one who might hold a grudge against him.
 The Monsons have been busy figuring lately figuring how to raise the $5.O00 they are offering as a reward. They have decided 10 mortgage their home, although that will put them in debt for years.
 Police and detectives arc fairly swamped with "tlps' phoned in by citizens. To date every one has proved fruitless, but none is considered too fantastic to in yestigate. The officers hope that sooner or later one of these wild clues will bring results.

Were you ever so scared that you felt like shrinking into nothing? If so, you know just how Striped Chip s-:unk felt when he discovered Mir. Blacksnake disappearing down be- tween the stones Of the old stone wall. He was so frightened that for a couple of minutes he couldn't move. If Mir. Blacksnake had poked his head out then. right in front of Striped Chipmunk. he certainly would have found an easy dinner waiting for him. The wonder was that Mir. Blacksnake hadn't seen Striped Chipmunk in the first place. But he didn't. He had been intent on something else and so had missed Striped Chipmunk altogeth- CT.
 When at length Striped ChipmunS recovered from his fright enough to move. he almost turned a back somersault off that big stone he was sitting on. Then he scampered as fast as his sho"t legs could take him along the old stone wall. clear up to the end nearest Farmer Browns. He was running away from home. Yes. sir, he was running away from home. His home was right beneath where he had been sitting, but Striped Chipmunk hadn't dared 10 go home. No. sir, he hadn't dared to go home.
 'Mr. Blacksnake is looking for my home," thought Striped Chipmunk. "He is likely to find it too. But. f I'm not in. he can't catch me. Ugh how hate that fellow. l knol what I'll 60. There's Il nice plac up at the end of the old stone wall where 1 have dug q nice little tun- nel. I once thought ] would make my home there, but l changed my mind. I'll go up there and stay un- til Mr. Dlacksnake leaves. I do hope he won't stay long around the old stone wall. l don't know Of any one who can make q fellow feel more unconlfortable.'
 Just as Striped Chipmunk reached the end of the old stone wall. Sammy Jay happened along. "Hi. Striped Chipmunk!" shouted Sammy Jay. Why are you in such d hurry?"
 Striped Chipmunk stopped for just a second or two. Ssh" said he. He may hear you"'
 Who may hear mo-" demanded Sammy Jay.
 "Mr. Hlacksnake," replied Striped Chipmunk. and almost whispered it. Hes down there in the old stone wall this very minute"
 Sammy Jays eyes gIittered. He didn't say word. He flew to a perch where he could look down on the old stone wall and settled him. self to watch. Striped Chipmunk chuckled. When Mir. Blacksnake shows up. Sammy Jay will tell the whole Great World" thought he.
 Then Striped Chipmunk dived down between the stones at the end of the old stone wall. Presently he found the entrance 10 familiar lit- tie tunnel. Soon ha came 10 where another little tunnel branchod off. II lead to littls sioreroom he used once upon time. Striped Chipnunk vhisked into this little side tunnel. Then he went 10 work.

 She opened the letter as she spoke. glanced over 1t quickly and handed it to my father.

 When 1t finally came to my hands. I read the translated phrases atten- lively. It should be potent I thought to quiet Olina's doubts of the sinis- ter nature of the message" she car ried.
 "See to 1t that you do not lose this token I'm sending you, as you did the first one" the supposed friend of Olina had written, ''for the time is short and anything might happen. Suppose the little fool died-where would you be then-with officials in charge of her body? Remember the negotiations for ransoming her will have to be conducted very adroitly. Never must any clue point even remotely toward me. I've done my part in getting her within your reach. and I shall know how much money is sent. so do not attempt to play me false Remember she thinks the message is about the jewels"
