Disease is generally supposed
to lurk in the bad smelling air
which arises sometimes from
sewers or sluggish streams or
ponds. Undoubtedly such
odors often indicate that pollu.

nearby is going on, but the
stencil, itself. Is not harmful.
This was proved long ago, In
1858, when the River Thames
was supposed to be rotting. The
most terrible odors arose from
its waters for months. People
walked around two or three
miles to avoid crossing the city
bridges. The London news
papers cried: india Is in re-
volt and the Thames stinks."
Parliament could sit only with
hanging sheets soaked in chlor.
ide of lime before every window
of the building. Steamboat
traffic on the river was inter.
rupted because the engineers
could not operate there with
out getting q headache and
nausea.
The most terrifying predic-
tions were held out. Plaques
were said to be coming to
descend on the pOpulace Of
London, according to DR.. James
Tobey In his book. 'The Riders
Of the Plaques" Wholesale de-
struction Of LIE was threatened
and expected.
But curiOusly- enough, at the
end Of the year, DR.. William
Budd, q sanitarian, pointed out
that the death rate for the year
was actually decreased. "A re-
markable diminution in the
prevalence Of fever, diarrhea
and other forms Of disease COM
monty aScribed to putrid emana-
tions," was announced by DR..
Budd. People had naturally not
been able to drink the water.
Smelling it did them no harm.
The stencil was caused by
dumping the city's sewerage into
the river. where it seethed and
fermented under . burning

Problems Presented by the
Unexpected Guest

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
Some friends of mine called
on me and as I had made O
previous appointment to 60 out
with some other friends, ]
told them so. They remained
about 20 minutes and then de,
parted. I made them promise
to call again and set a date.
Did I do the right thing, or
should I have stayed ct home
and broken the other appoint
ment?
I will appreciate your ad.
vice, as it may happen again.
B. P.
You did Just the right thing.
No unexpected visitor should
expect you to break an appoint
ment, and you were correct in
not doing such q thing. It
would have been most unfair.
When visitors drop in in this
casual way, it is the expected
thing for the hostess to explain
to them-when it comes time
to dress-that she is sorry to
have to say that she haa TO
leave because she has an ap.
pointment, but that she hopes
that they will come again soon
when she does not have to Fly
away"
Then she may either make .
definite appointment, or may
telephone or write them later
to ask them to come to see her.

The Question Of Pins and
Rings
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am coming to you with .
question which has been
bothering me for some time.
In the case Of q boy and girl
exchanging rings, pins. ETC., Is
the boy supposed to be doing
the girl q favor by letting her
wear his ring or pin, or Is she
doing him q favor by wearing
it? BY doing q favor" l mean
showing affection for"
KAY.
You do not say whether these
things are fraternity pins, class
wearing them than If they are
brotherhood or. class symbols,
more significance Is attached TO
wearing them than it they are
ordinary jewelers. wares. In
certain college fraternities, for
girl to wear a mans pin Is
the equivalent to announcing
her engagement to him. The
same holds good with class
rings In other universities. 1t
is a compliment. certainly, to
lend or wear a ring or pin and
it denotes interest. On the
other hand. it frequently
makes trouble If these articles
happen to get lost, or if there
is some misunderstanding
about their return, or what the
wearing Of them really signi-
flies to the two people involved.
Better be clear on this point
before lending or wearing.

DEA I H CRASPS FATHER, BUT SON ESCAPES CLUTCH
R. H. Fritzgibbons Report ed Drowned Tn Yakutat Bay

Death clutched a father but it's grasp missed the 15-year -old son when their boat was capsized in the surf off the mouth of the Ankau River in Yakutat Bay The body Of the parent, R, H. Fitzgib- bons, fisherman, who leaves a widow and several children at the family home in Hoonah, was washed ashore, and inferred at Yakutat The boy, who managed to struggle through the breakers to the beach in safety, is believed to be still at Yakutat, awaiting to come south on one of the steamships that call there.
 News of the fatal accident, which happened about three weeks ago, was brought to Juneau by Robert Coughlin, purser of the Estebeth, which arrived here last evening from Sitka and way ports.
 My information, explained MT. Coughlin, is hearsay. I have not talked about the tragic mishap with any one from Yakutat. My in formation is from persons who said they had conversed with Yakutat residents"
 MT. Coughlin's account is con- firmed in part by a message re- ceived in Juneau about the time os Ithe accident from Yakutat to the Alaska Washington Airways asking 1t to send seaplane there to search for boat that contained fisher man and his son who had been missing several days. Storm and fog prevented the plane from un- |dertaking the mission at once, and when weather conditions moderated within 36 hours, so flying was pos sible, the request for help was with drawn.

BUTLER TRYING COMEBACK HERE
 MEETS COLLIER
Legion Signs Up Former Heavyweight Champ,
 Collier for Title

Ford Butler, former heavyweight champion of Alaska, will return to the ring, and his first fight will be under the auspices of the local American Legion post, it was an- nounced today by Matchmaker Ken meth Junge. Butler will fight Joe Collier in the main event of the Legions next show on October 4, at the A. B. Hall arena.
 The heavyweight title of Alaska will be at stake in this scrap. But Ter, it is true, lost his crown to Freddy Cullen several years ago, but Cullen left the Territory immediate ly afterward and has never been back to defend the title which has been regarded as vacant for four or five years.
 Butler beat Davies, Anchorage heavy, for the crown originally, and can logically claim it if any one can do so. Collier is the most likely contender and the victor in the coming battle can rightfully lay claim to the belt. It will be a six round battle.
