The late President Coolidge was ask
ed by his wife one Sunday after church
service what the preachers subject was
"Sin," was the reply" And what did he
have to say. "He was agin it." was the
ungrammatical and laconic answer The
lesson conveyed in this retort was that the
minister must not only preach against sin,
but initiate against it. The church is
militant and has besides legislative also
an executive branch But wilt thou
know, o vain man, that faith without
works is dead?-JameS 9; 20.

The first American Free Trade Zone
will soon be established near New York.
Key West was the first city in the country
to have a survey of the harOor made and
found to be exceptionally we'll suited for
this purpose. Eventually six such zones
will be created in the United States. The
creation of a free trade zone on this island
would make Key West self-supporting
and do away with all the boondoggling
now going or. A wise government would
take this matter seriously into considera-
ton.

MORGAN FEARS
SCARLET FEVER
OUTBREAK HERE
Reports Indicate Disease Is
Above Normal Level,
Says Physician.
BY TOM oCHILTREE

Predictions of an increase in
scarlet fever cases here during the
next two months were made today
by DR.. Herman G. Morgan, Health
Board secretary, as he organized all
forces at his command to chez the
disease.
Eighty-five cases have been re-
ported to city health officers so far
this month, a considerable increase
above normal. This last outbreak,
coupled with the fact that the
disease held its grip here through
out 1895, Is cause of concern in the
department.
Because Of the large number Of
carriers" capable of transmitting
the disease, control Of this malady
is extremely difficult, DR.. Morgan
said. Records show that children
especially are susceptible to these
germs.
1t is practically impossible to iso-
late these carriers" he said. They
can not be detected through cul-
lures, ne explained. Since scarlet
fever is a streptococcic disease, and
since almost one person in six will
show "strep" traces during winter
months, it is like trying to find a
needle in a haystack to trace the
source of the trouble, Mr.. Morgan
asserted.
Many Cases Overlooked
Contrary to general belief, there
are many true cases Of scarlet fever
which are believed merely to be at
tacks of tonsillitis," DR.. Morgan
pointed out. Sometimes there is no
rash in these cases.
"All attacks of sore throat accom-
panied by high temperature and
other evidences of toXemia should
be viewed with suspicion" he added.
This particularly should be done
in homes where children and young
adults might be subjected to ex-
posure."
While scarlet fever is not attended
by as high mortality rate as some
other contagious maladies, it fire.
quently leaves the victim with
severe after effects.
Within the last few years." DR..
Morgan said, "a serum has been
perfected for prevention and treat
rnent of scarlet fever. It has not
been universally adopted, however,
by all physicians and health depart
ments, principally for the reason
that effects following its admins
tration were serious in some cases.
Serum Improved
within recent months advances
have been made in removing toxic
products from the serum" he said.
Experience with so-called globulin-
free serum apparently offers a
better agent for both treatment and
prevention"
The local health department now
believes the serum can be given
without danger, and DR.. Morgan
thinks children should be protect
ed by incubation.
Parents are asked to consult their
physicians relative to this matter.

passengers were enthusiastic
about this maiden North Atlantic
voyage, which was being made at
the rate of more than IS miles an
hour, the pace maintained con-
stantly since leaving the coast OF
Holland.
DR.. Hugo Eckener, veteran Zep-
pelin commander, who is person
ally directing the trip, received
weather reports as he headed the
Hindenburg in the directin Of the
Azores. He sent out a radio mes
sage stating:
"AIl well. Position four miles
south of Cape Lizard"
This message also stated the
Zeppelin had reduced its speed
to about 10 miles per hour.
Motors Run Quietly
The four motors Of the dirigible
were barely audible as they drove
the huge ship forward at a
steady clip out over the open sea
toward far-away Lakehurst, N. j..
from FriedrichShafen, Germany.
Unless headwinds cut down the
speed, the airship should reach
LakehurSt sometime Saturday
afternoon. Shortly after the
start of the flight, DR.. Eckener
announced:
"Our course will be through
the English Channel, then in
sOuthweSterly direction over the
Azores"
After leaving Friedrichshafen,
the Hindenburg went down the
Rhine Valley and then followed a
course over Holland, passing over
Eindhoven early in the morning,
European time, after the 81 pas
SengerS, 10 Of them women. had
earlier watched the lights Of one
Rhineland town after another
pass beneath them.
At midnight, European time, all
the passengers were still up and
thrilled by their experience as the
ship passed over Coblentz in the
Rhineland. Forty-five minutes
later they looked down upon Co
logne. appearing as a fairy-like
lacework Of lights under the soft
beams of the full moon.
After leaving Holland the ship
passed over the English Channel,
thence around the southern coast
Of England and out to sea. In
cluding the crew, lot persons were
aboard.
The huge ship scared away from
Friedrichshafen at 4:30 p. m.
E.STO yesterday afternoon.
But to those aboard the cheers
of large crowd Of spectators,
rather than any perceptible move
ment Of the ship signaled the take
off. In a moment the drone of the
mighty motors could be heard
family.
DR.. Eckener explained to Inter
national News Service that the
delay in the take-off was due to
a wait for last minute weathe.: re-
ports from Hamburg. DR.. Eckener,
who commanded the Graf Zeppe-
lin on it's historic round-the-world
flight, is directing this flight, but
Capt. Ernst Lehman is in COM
mand.
