hardly the word to reflect the mood
in which the political have-no
survey the 1910 outlook. 1t is super
optimism in the nth degree that
fires their ce-starved breasts.
When Chairman Hamilton and his
cheerful colleagues foregathered
yesterday, they had before them a
tabulation, based ON the State and
Congressional victories of November
8, indicating that, If the Republicans
hold their gains, their candidate
for president two years hence would
have 365 electoral-college votes, or
80 more than necessary to elect.
No one had the hardihood to trot
out some equally hopeful Democratic
figures, also based on the late elec-
tions, showing that the donkey would
cross the winning line with no fewer
than 266 electoral tallies, or exactly
enough to nose out his pachyderin-
Gus rival.

dominates the Republican council

berg, Saltonstall, Stassen, Bricker,
He'll, Barbour. Danaher and even
Hoover and Landon, are the names
banded about in the hotel lobbies,
over the cocktails and between
speeches at committee sessions.
Chatter over 1910 white hopes
leaves no doubt that the party
expects the same kind of Con-
servative-Liberal scutfie for SUI
premacy in its national convention
as the Democrats are certain to lace
in their quadrennial Kilkenny. Also.
1t is already indicated, many a

HAVE THEM PROTECTED
AGAINST DIPHTHERIA

Here is another bit of advice from
DR.. R. H. Riley, Directory Of the
State Department of Health, to par
ents OF five and six-years-olds who
will start to school this fall.
IF you haven't already done it"
DR.. Riley said, take your youngster
to your doctor for a complete physic-
al examination, including tests of
vision and hearing, and to your
dentist for a check-up on any dent
al attention needed. Besides the gen.
eral going over, there are two ex-
tras that are of special Importance
and that should be attended to with
out delay.
Number one is vaccination
against smallpox. Number two is pro-
lection against diphtheria. Nearly
all parents are familiar enough with
our Maryland law to know that a
child has to be vaccinated against
smallpox before he or she may be
enrolled in any public school in the
State. Protection against diphtheria
is not required by law, but parents
have it done voluntarily, in order
that their children may be safe
guarded against this very dreadful
disease.
eve have had only two cases Of
smallpox in Maryland in eight years
and we hope eventually to have an
equally good record with regard to
diphtheria. During the first six
months of this year. nine of the
twenty-three counties of Maryland
had perfectly clean states SO far as
this disease is concerned, without a
single case of diphtheria in any of
them. Our goal is clean slate for
every part of the State.
Last year over $4,000 young
children in the counties were pro-
tected against the disease at the
public clinics arranged by the Coun-
ty Department of Health. Every
year the number increases. During
the first six months of this year,
over 10000 young children in the
Counties of Maryland were protected
against diphtheria at the county
clinics or by their own doctors.
Thousands of the children who live
in Baltimore City were safeguarded
against the disease at the City
clinics or by their family physicians.
We hope that in a few years, pro-
lection against diphtheria will be as
much a matter of course for all
children in Maryland as vacciation
against smallpox is now.
''Diphtheria is very treacherous
disease and very easily picked up.
Any child who has not been protect
ed against it, is likely to contract 1t,
if exposed to it. A single shot of
toxoid will give the necessary pro-
lection.
"If your child has not been pro-
tected against diphtheria, go to your
family doctor and have it done.
Don't put it OF any longer.

HOME CANNING

Maryland farm families who have
received loans from the Farm Sec
urity Administration canned and
stored last year homegrown fruits
vegetables and meats to the value
of $47,544.19, according to reports
just issued by FSA home manage
ment supervisors in the state. This
is a figure considerably in excess of
the products raised for home con-
sumption by these families in previ-
Gus years.
AS gratifying as the total savings,
which will allow these families to
have more cash to invest in house
hold, clothing, educational and other
family needs, is the accompanying
improvement in their general health
and physical strength from the use
of balanced and varied diets of
homegrown foods recommended by
the supervisors.
Clients participating in this food
conservation program, and keeping
quantity records with dollar and
cents valuation generally based on
state Extension Service figures, in
clude farm women who had never
previously processed the yield of
subsistence gardens for year
around use. These women especially
are gratified to find that by doing
so they actually become producers of
three or four hundred dollars worth
of food annually. Many are thus
largely instrumental in preserving
the narrow margin of profit on
which their farms are operated.

STATE UNEMPLOYMENT
SERVICE

During the week that ended Sat-
urday, Sept. 10, the thirteen offices
of the Maryland State Employment
Service lifted out of the depths of
unemployment and returned to
gainful work no less than 482 men
and women.
OF this total, 354 people were
found jobs with private employers
and 12S with public projects.
AS usual, the office in Baltimore
City led the list with 191 jobs filled
with private employers, and 16 with
public contractors. In second place
this week for the number of private
jobs filled was Office in Cumberland;
but whereas Cumberland made no
public placement whatever, the Of
fee in Annapolis made 81, leading
the entire State in this type of &C.
tivity.
In third place for private place
ments was the Office in Frederick,
which found jobs of this nature for
2S men and vernon, just three more
thuA 10 hOi6AbOA, 4Ao6OA0IOWAp
where 25 people were found private
jobs.
Afer Hagerstown came Annapolis,
where 81 men and women were sent
back to private work. Taken with
this Offices 81 jobs filed, this
makes total of Is placements for
the week made in Annapolis, second
only to Baltimore City's 207.
Other offices in the Statewide
system, with number of private
placements made by each, are as
follows: Cambridge with 10; Tow
son, 9; Salisbury, 8; Hyattsville, g.;
Oakland, 6; Chestertown, 5; and
Rockville, 3.
During the month of August all
previous records for the number OF
private placements made by the
Maryland State Employment Service
in any one month were broken for
the third consecutive month.
The 1850 private placements
made by the Service during June Of
this year was the highest number
on record at that time. During July,
however, 2,243 such placements
were made. Now August, with 2,246
private placements, exceeds all pre-
vious months.
The Office in Baltimore City broke
all it's records during August by fill
ling 1895 jobs for private employ
ers. In the rest of the State about
half the offices showed increases over
July: Annapolis made 92 private
placements in August and only SO
in July; Chestertown made SO in
August against Is in July; Hagers-
town 100 in August and only 60 in
July; Hyattsville So against so;
and Towson 80 against 80.
Other offices showed decreases in
August compared with July, but
these may be attributed entirely to
seasonal slackness in their districts.
The remaining offices, with the num-
Der of private placements made dur
ing August, are as follows: Cam
bridge, 95; Cumberland, 155; Elk
ton /; Frederick, 1903; Oakland, "a;
Rockville, 10; and Salisbury, 161.
Placements to public projects dur
ing the month of August amounted
to 1872 in the entire State, bringing
the total number of placements
made by the Service in August up
to 2,978.
A state Unemployment Service
Office has been opened in Elkton, at
2O7 North street, where assistance
and information may be secured by
applicants.
