Diphtheria

Diphtheria is an infectious dis
ease caused by the bacillus diph-
therial and usually found on the
mucus membrane of the throat or
in the larynx (voice box in the
latter case called "membranous
Group" and may infect other nue.
GUS membranes of the body.
Diphtleria usually occurs dur
ing the last quarter of the year in
October or November-mOre often
in chiIdhood-80% of the deaths
from it happen between 1 to S yrs.
of age and more common in girls.
Diphtheria is very contagious
is transmitted from one person
to another directly by kissing. ex-
change of peDcils at school. etc.
The germ can live for months when
not on the human body and cats
can convey it.
Unlike scarlet fever, small pox,
or mumps one attack does not
confer immunity.
There is a test called "Schick's
Test" that is used which a de-
termine immunity-if by infect

to the skin it turns red, you are
susceptible to the iDfectiOn-if
not it indicates immunity.
After exposure to diphtheria
the incubation period is from 2 to 5
days, when you have a general
weakness, a temperature. slight
hoarseness, face is gray and throat
is sore. the surface of the tonSil
covered with the organism has a
dull gray appearance. Vomiting
in the early part OF the disease
is a dangerous symptom.
The disease attacks the ner-
uous system often resulting in

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
ADDENDUM

Several days ago the Daily News presented tragic
exhibits, from the state of Washington and tile
other from Oklahoma, consideration of the advo-
actes of RECOMMENDATION, those who adhere to the
view that the nations economic doldrums are the
result Of oyer-production and that the only soiu-
ton is a drastic curtailment of production which
affects agriculture and industry alike. .. '*
In one instance four-y ear-old child, suffering
the pangs of hunger, ate poison weeds which caused
her death. In the other father poisoned his three
children because he could mot stand to see them
starve to death" If these examples of super-abun-
dance which weighs so heavily upon the nation
economic and social system lost their effectiveness
because of their distance, additional testimony now
comes within own fair state.
Late Saturday afternoon passing motorIst
picked up young white man, later identified as
Francis Montague Coffin, of Lowell, Mass, on the
highway near Rocky Mount, and rushed him to a
hospital where it was found that he was suffering
from bullet wound in the chest. Sunday night he
died. telling attending physicians, in the meantime
that he had shot himself he had tramped over a
large portion of the country trying in vain to find
work; he was homeless, friendless and hungry,
without food for three days, and even for some
time without water He was well educated reg
istered male nurse, and bore letters of ntroduc
tion from Senator Walsh, of his home state. But,
no work, home food; what was the use?
Non-academician that it is, this Journal to save
its soul, cannot see how program calling for pro-
ducers to kill little pigs, destroy wheat burn corn
or dump milk and thus save the country from the
specter of overproduction makes, in the face If
such suffering, an endless line of mouths waiting
to be filled, economic, social or plain humanitarian

BooTLEeeER, TRIUMPHANT, CARRIES ON

1t was predicted freely that should the nation
abandon prohibition and launch upon greater
experiment" the evils of the bootlegger, with the
attendant crime structure supported by his ucra-
tive industry, might be eliminated forever from
the national scene. But, unfortunately, the boot
logger it seems, active and as present as ever
operating now without the intensive vigilance of
federal prohibition force as deterrent
The government has more than ever an obliga-
ton to clean up this immense illicit traffic and
manufacture of whisky which is said to exceed the
legitimate whisky traffic. . 'r.
The bootlegger is the only one ahead of the
game. The government is not getting the taxes it
should The states, which it was contended had
the solution of the immense problem already
worked out, are foundering, with no effective
manner of competing with the illicit trade; more
hquor is being consumed. The advocates of tenn
perance are losing out, the federal ard state gov
ernments are losing out, and the lawful industry is
struggling against the great odds which the trium-
plant bootlegger is creating.-High Point Enter

DUE VESTS LIQUOR REVENUE

We are sure that it:sent pang of shame through
the true Due West hearts to read the scare heads
in the papers that "the Holy City," as the late
Major ]. H. Hemphill accustomed to call it.,
had received Is cents during the past IL months
as its share of the tax levied on beer sold within
its limits AS IS cents 20 per cent of the total
revenue from that source, we may form pretty
accurate idea of how scarce has been the beverage
in Due West.
Due West is showing the state the best way to
manage the business that is to say, to let it alone
Just how sorry for Due West some people may be
we do not know; but We doubt if the health and
happiness of the town have suffered from the fact
that its citizens must supply the needed revenues
for local government by digging down into their
pockets for the amount. Even from that stand
point they are better off for if they had got their
revenues through the beer tax, they would have
paid out considerably larger sum for the beer
in addition to what they got back as a tax But
they would have had the beer. Yes that would
have made it that much worse.-Newberry Is. c.

FRANCE RESTORES. A TRADITION

France and art are in many minds synonymous.
When we think of those French products with
which we are familiar, visualize something fine
and beautiful. Not 50 with the Republics postage
stamps. In the eyes Of collectors the French
stamps are at the very bottom of the scale
But now all is to be changed. France has a
new Minister of Posts J. M. Jean Mister, who
used to be Minister of Fine Arts, announces sweep
ing changes in the designs of almost all of the
common values. The stamp used for domestic
letters will picture Growing cock, symbol of the
French nation; and the stamp used on foreign let
tiers will picture dove bearing an olive branch.
Other denominations will illustrate historic French
cities or events. J
All of which brings delight to the heart of the
great army of stamp collectors all over The world
and the hope that perhaps some day the United
States may put little artistry and imagination
into its postage stamps, instead of using the be-
whskered portraits of former presidents -The

WJASHINGTON-You can match
w the protests of several con-
gressmen that the Federal Alco-
hol Control Administration is
hampering distillers against a
current idea here that FACA has
let the boys run high, wide, and
handsome. -
FACA has yet to hear from con.
Iumers. Director Joseph Choate's
blast against the bootlegging mon.
ster," which some officials think he
exaggerates, echoed the distillers
plea for lower taxes and import
duties without mentioning what
Senator Borah calls huge, enor-
nous. unconscionable profits"
At about the same time, one of
the big wings of the whisky
monopoly" was found to have
profited at the rate of 40 per cent
In the last quarter of 1888.
Appointment of Fred Lee as
FACA general counsel was hardly
a body blow to distillers. Before
the big bust-up at AAA, Lee and
George Peek fought successfully fol
distillers' code eliminating the
Wallace.Tugwell program for a fed
eral corporation or such strict con
troll that whisky could be sold fol
81 or $3.50 a quart.
Early FACA threats to attack the
profit issue finally resulted in dis
patch of cost questionnaires to dis
tillers. But the answers won't dis
close profits, because liquor now
being made and stored-on which
costs will be reported-may not bS
sold for months hence.
Distillers contend that what lool
like huge profits really aren't, thai
banks won't give them credit, and
that they must have the profit
money to build up large stocks
