TULAREMIA. THE THREAT OF
THE WOODS
By DR.. w. D. Brown

AS Fall approaches, amateur
huntsmen prepare to invade the
forests in quest of prey. Ducks,
rabbits, squirrels, deer, must
scamper to avoid humiliation. The
sport is great. However, occasion
ally errors are made and the
hunter is injured, killed, or he sue
cumbs to a severe disease such as
tularemia. With usual skill, he
may have no accident in getting
the animal; but in doing so he may
be bitten by a tularemia-infected
woodtick or fly, or the rabbit or
squirrel he is proudly dressing may
be teeming with the disease. These
germs, getting in either through a
bite or through an abrasion in the
skin or conjunctiva Of the eye,
give constitutional symptoms in 4S
hours or longer. liberation at the
site of Infection, enlargement of
the regional lymphnodes, and high
continuous fever for three weeks
or longer with remissions consti-
tute evidence Of the disease. There
is no specific cure for the ailment
and many cases are fatal. How
ever, certain rules, if observed,
will prevent many cases. First, do
not go to areas known to be
tularemia-infected. Second, pre-
vent abrasions of skin while hunt
ing. Third, do not wipe eyes with
dirty hands. Fourth, wear rubber
gloves when dressing rabbits or
squirrels. Fifth, if hands are cut
or scratched while cleaning the
animal, apply an approved anti
septic Immediately. Finally, if
you are suddenly stricken i'll dur
ing a hunting trip or soon after,
seek medical advice immediately
for an early diagnosis of the
disease will make chances of re-
eovery better.

In a radio address over KSTP
last week, A. w. Strong speaking
for the Citizens Alliance said,
among others things, that the AL
lance contributed without dis
elimination to the employment of
labor, white, black, and yellow. In
the text of his talk as published
the following day in the Mime
apOlis Tribune this portion of his
address was deleted. 1t would be
interesting to know if the speaker
or the paper was responsible for
the omission. The Alliance claims
that in the quarter century of its
existence it has helped 100000 men
to employment. The fair ratio of
this number would give 1000 of
these places to the cOlOred people.
Fine, if true!
One of the stories l like to re-
member and frequently tell is of
the boy who came running to his
mother pop-eyed with excitement,
saying, Mother, mother, l almost
got horse just now!" "How was
that, SOM" the mother asked.
well, saw a man going up the
street with horse and I asked
him to give him to me. He said
No. If he had just said yes I'd
have had the horse" There is
more to this than just a funny
story. I know quite a few men
who can construct, repair, or rent
houses, lay cement walks, spread
wall paper, paint, wash windows
polish shoes, install and repair
electrical devices and do hundred
and one other useful things, but
they haven't the courage of thu

THOMPSON gave the Cities a
taste of big-time doings last Sum
day night at Jim's beer garden,
when they ordered FORTY BEERS
in rapid successiorf.
It all started WIN some young
lady sighed thirst ": II could
drink about twenty beers!" And
| before anyone could sneeze .
sneeze or bat an eyelash Bud was
giving the order to KATHARINE
MURPHY, waitress, friend, con-
6dant, and general advisor, to
Jim's patrons.
"How many beers ?" asked Kate
again as if she were a bit deaf the
first time.
"Twenty!" shouted Lawney in a
voice loud enough to rock Gibral-
tar. Kate eyed both gentlemen
suspiciously.
"I'm asking you for the last time
how many beers you want for
this party?"
cts still twenty" came back
Bud without moments hesitation.
Listen, you," said Kate in an
I'm-telling-you tone, "I'm going to
bring twenty beers, and you'd bet
ter be here when they come, tool"
The twenty beers made their ap-
pearance in due time, and the table
was covered with foaming mugs Of
80. There was beer to the right,
beer to the left, beer, beer, beer,
and more beer. Everybody in the
party made a grab at the same
time, and as a few from other
tables saw the prospects, they got
in the jamboree, too. At any rate,
where at first there was beer, there
soon appeared nothing but a lot
Of forlorn and desolated-looking
empty mugs which were promptly
whisked away by Kate.
About that time a group of Mill
City Clark Gables came in, AL Nc
CLURE being one of the number.

"Nuts!" said Mcclure. (He
must have learned that word dur
ing his flrst year at the Univer-
sity.)
"You don't believe it, Ell? ?" ques-
toned Benner, getting slightly
snippy about the situation.
"I'm not from Missouri, but
you'll still have to show me-" came
from J. SEYMOUR, who was with
the Mcclure outfit. And, so, be-
lieve it or not, Lawney dashed back.
to the bar and ordered TWENTY
MORE BEERS. Katharine's only
comment when she brought the
second lot, was: "Some people get
crazier every day!"
1 suppose, now, someone will be
out to break the Benner- Thompson
