APPEALS VOICED
 FOR DIPHTHERIA
ImmunizatiOn of Children Best Way to Prevent
 Spread Says Miss Peak

Immunization of children is the best means of preventing the spread of diptheria, declares Miss Alice G.. Peak, director of the Visiting Nurse association. She urges parents to have their children immunized at once. A similar appeal has been voiced by pr. E. J. Godfrey, city health officer.
 "TEis disease, unlike most others, can be prevented" she said. The protective measure, an injection of toxoid, gives almost certain protec- tion. This takes only few minutes and protects the baby throughout its childhood"
 The association has cared for seven children who developed diph- theria during the first 10 days Of the year.

Lieut.-De- tectives William Pollard and William Foley are investigating.
 Thieves who entered the plant of the Kravan O., 125 Maple street, stole 10 nickel anode bars. The bars, which weighed a total of $50 pounds, are valued at S65. The thieves forced a window to gain entrance to the factory.
