Health Measures Wipe
Out Smallpox in Mexico

Mexico City, MeX.-So successful has
been the campaign of the federal
health authorities in Mexico against
the ravages of smallpox, plague that
cost the lives Of 17,405 persons in that
country in 1920, that it is we'll on the
way toward being wiped out, according
to report recently given out in Mex
leo, d. f., by DR.. Miguel e. Busta-
mente, chief of the federal sanitary
service in the states. 1t is stated that
there are no fewer than GS important
cities and towns in the republic without
single case Of smallpox, while in
eight other cities there are only from
one to three cases.
Doctor Bustamente explains that as
fast as his agents clean up neigh
borhood and vaccinate the population
they move on into fresh territory. so
that 1T is merely a matter of time
when the whole country will be prac.
tically immunized. He estimates the
deaths in the whole country from
smallpox this year at much less than
quarter of the 1920 figure. ..a,es,.,

Confederation Articles
and u. S. Constitution


The articles of confederation con-
ferred upon congress none but the
delegated powers and recognized tb-
absolute sovereignty of the states.
notes writer in the Cleveland Plain
Dealer.
Aside from the right to make war
and peace, regulate foreign inter
course, receive and send ambassadors,
control and coinage of money, and set
tie disputed boundaries. congress had
no power to act without the consent
Of nine of the states each casting one
ballot. 1t could not levy taxes, and
before 1887 the war debt had de-
stroyed the financial reputation of the
United States abroad.
The states were divided in their in
terests, and at the last Colonial con.
gress but eight of the states sent dele
gates. Not the least of the weak
nesses of the confederation was the
nonprovision of chief magistrate, or
for a national judiciary.
To meet these needs it was found
necessary to frame new Constitu-
hon, Systematically organizing a per-
manent form Of government.
This document ,arranges the powers
Of government under three heads
legislative, executive and judicial-and
places the supreme power in the peO-
pie of the whole country, instead Of
vainly endeavoring to maintain a null
titude of Independent states. 1t re-
placed q disjointed confederacy Of

Queen Elizabeth Musical;

The word harpsichord was invented
because 1t was seen that the instru-
ment had harp-like shape, and when
keyboard was added chords could be
struck on it. Virginals, spinets, and
clavichords are all like the early harps-
ichords, the difference being in the way
tha string is plucked whether by
quill or wedges of brass.
Queen Elizabeth played the virginia.

posers were very busy in the Seven
teenth and Eighteenth centuries max
ing better instruments and writing mu
sic for them. Later harpsichords had
q device for opening and shutting the
lid to increase or decrease the sound.
and there was separate keyboard
with single strings to make soft sounds.
All Eighteenth orchestras had
a harpsichord, played generally by the
conductor.
BY the Nineteenth century the piano
had arrived. for people wanted more
light and shade in music, and the
harpsichord could not produce it. Gu

best early harpsichord music, Do

fresh even today.-Montreal Herald.

BLOCK DEATHS AT
UNSAFE CROSSINGS
Reduction of Road Hazards Is
Most Pressing Need.

Washington. Extensive elimination
OF railway grade crossing as part of
the public works program will meet
pressing needs for reduction of high
way hazards, facilitation of traffic and
prompt provision of widespread en-
ployment, according to a statement is
sued by the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States.
There are at present approximate
ly $4,000 rail-highway grade crossings
in the United States, of which 400
are protected by gates, 5000 by watch
men and 10000 by signals. The re-
mainder are protected only by fixed
warning signs" the statement de-
clared.
During the past ten years acct
dents at rail-hghway crossings have
caused more than 10000 deaths, near
ly 10000 injuries and extensive prop
erty damage While for several re-
cent years there were reductions, the
record for 1884 shows a pronounced
increase over 1888
BESIDES Tie losses due to acct
dents, there is a continuing cost to
highway users from delays expert
enced at grade crossings, amounting in
the aggregate to many millions of dol
lars annually.
There is sufficient number of
crossings where established accident
records justify elimination of the haz-
ard, and for which plans are ready or
could be completed promptly, to as
sure large program of unemploy-
ment relief that can quickly be put
into operation. In addition, an effec-
tive organization already exists in the
bureau of public roads and the state
highway departments to carry out such
program without delay"
