Diptheria Prevention
 Very Simple Matter
DISEASES TOLL ENTIRELY
 UNNECESSARY
Territorial Dept. of Health)

(Territorial Dept. of Health)
 Diptheria is a very serious and catching disease of the nose, throat and upper air passages, It is caused by a definite germ which produces this disease and no other. The place where the germ is lodged becomes i.,faned and covered with membrane; q thin grayish. white, skin like covering. The membrane grows rapidly.
 The danger of diptheria is not from the inflammation. The poi son, called toxin, which the germs make, goes all through the system Of the patient; weak ems the heart, damages the kid neys, and causes paralysis of many nerves and muscles.
 One attack of diptheria does not safeguard person from another attack. Some people have many attacks of diptheria. Children are very defenseless against this disease, and many children die from diptheria each year. No child need become i'll with diptheria. 1t can easily be prevented by & very simple and harmless method. The inj tion of a small amount, 10 to IS drops of 8 mixture called toxoid, under the skin will immunize the child against diptheria.
 This mixture is slowly taken up by the body, and stimulates the individual to manufacture 8 substance of his own to resist and withstand the effects of the diptheria germ.

 UNTOLD MISERY

(Territorial Dept. of Health)
 Smallpox has been the most terrible disease for many, many hundreds of years. It used to kill many thousands of people each year. This disease is very catching, and spreads rapidly.
 The wounds on the skin are only part of the disease. Sini lar wounds cover also the linirg of our food canal. The poisons thrown out by this terrible dis ease cause damage to the liver, kidney, spleen, and even to the bone marrow.
 In 179e, an English doctor by the name of Edward Jenner found way to fight this disease. He vacclnated the people with cowpox. and found that this pro. tected them from taking small. pox. Vaccination is now prAc- ticrd by all civilized nations.
 The material used for vacci- hation is very carefully tested, and cannot be sold unless the manufacturer has a permit from the United States Public Health Service
 One person sick with smallpox can infect whole community. and children are the most help less in this disease.
 Everyone should be protected against smallpox.
 Remember: THERE IS NC CURE FOR SMALLPOX. THE ONLY WAY TO PROTECTION IS THROUGH VACCINATION

EARLY in the morning of May A IA, 1913, philatelist w. T. Robey stopped at the stamp win dow of the New York Avenue branch of the Washington post office, inquired for copies of the new 24-cent bicolored airmail stamp. He was told that only poorly centered issues were in stock. but that new copies would be in at noon.
 So at noon Mir. Robcy returned, repeated his request. A second later, according to Mir. Robey, his 'heart stood still.'
 The clerk had handed him a full sheet of inverts. Without comment Robey produced his SPA and asked if any more sheets were available. There were none. Robey then told the clerk of his find.
 Two hours later postal inspec- tors were at Robey's office de- manding return of the error sheet. But Robey was adamant. Then offers began to roll in. First $500. Next $1O,00O for the sheet. The bidding eventually reached $18,- 900 for the 100 stamps. Eventually Col. E. H. Green purchased the sheet and was induced to break it up. Today, 20 years later, the stamps of this only known invert- ed sheet are worth $2O,0O0 for block of four (Scott's) or $500,000 for the sheet that Mir. Robey got for SPA. A single unused stamp is listed in Scott's at $4500.
 Most valuable of all U. s. stamps, the 1918 inverted is de- Scribed below.

 Joyce laughed. i've been shop ping, and I know you wouldn't have enjoyed that"
 A little colored boy approached them, his arms laden with enor- nous bouquets of sweet peas. Flowers f de lady, boss?'
 Why not?" Mir Gregory re- sponded promptly. How much?"
 '"Twenty-f' cents, boss"
 Cheap enough. I think I'll take the white ones that's it" He held them out to Joyce. Wear them for me, with that lovely white frock of yours, will you?"
 Joyce thanked him, admiring the wax-like perfection of the flowers. But her eyes clouded at the reminder of the lovely white frock that was no more, and she buried her face in the soft frag- rance of the bouquet. Evidently MT. Gregory had not heard of their little adventure While they were crossing the harbor, he asked her suddenly:
 Would you care to spend the evening in Havana with me, Miss Milner? There's great deal to do, I am told, with an agreeable companion"
 But she begged off quickly. I'm so sorry, MT. Gregory. I've already made an engagement ." She knew that she was refusing the invitation solely in the hope that Dick would ask her. She might still be left sitting on the Empress all alone, target for MT. Gregory's sympathy. tTO Be Continued)

that such a policy can triumph. 1t
is lesson that we need to be

Kennedy was understood to
have told British Foreign Secre-
tary Viscount Halifax that the
U. S. government would be un-
able to contribute money but that
a "huge sum" could be raised
privately in the United States if
Britain found land for the Ger
man Jews.
Some quarters said that Britain,
in addition to providing land for
the Jews in he rcolonies, also
might make financial contribu-
ton because of the enormous cost
involved.
Jewish and other charitable or
CARNATIONS throughout the world
would be expected to contribute.
The British cabinet, in addi-
ton to studying the plight of the
German Jews at its session to-
day, also discussed Chamberlain's
plan for compulsory national reg
istration to assure speedy mobili.
cation of the nations technical
skill as we'll as military strength
in event of war.
American sources denied Brit
ish press reports that Kennedy
would return to Washington at
the same time the American am
bassador to Berlin, Hugh R. Will
son, returns at the call of Presi-
dent Roosevelt for consultations
on the German situation.

against the Jews.
Foreign Minister Joachim Won
Ribbentrop and other members of
the Nazi hierarchy were repre-
scented at Dusseldorf for the fu-
neral of Rath, whose body last
night lay in state in the huge
Rhinehalle there while thousands
filed past the SwaStika-draped
Catafalque.
An official of the economies
ministry, discussing methods of
collecting a $400,600,OOO collec-
tive Zine" levied against German
Jews as result of the Paris as
sassination, admitted that stern
measures against all Jews were
being arranged even before the
Staying.
"But that does not take away
from the punitive character of
the measures in any way" he
said.
Hitler's warning against renew
al of anti-Semitic rioting and
further damage to Jewish proper
ty was issued by Joseph Buerckel,
Reich commissioner for Austria.
1.-The Fuehrer has empowered
me to declare" said Buerckel to
factory workers at Steyr, that
whoever in the future smashes,
destroys or plumbers another's
property will have to reckon with
being placed against a WALL In
the future there will be no Jew
| property"
In Berlin and throughout Ger
many terrorized Jews hid in the
homes of hospitable foreigners
until they can be convinced that
the violence and arrests have
ended.
From various sections of the
country reports of Jewish suicides
reached Berlin and late informa-
ton indicated that the terrorism
mad been far worse in the outly-
ing districts than in the capital.
In one place, not far from Ber-
I'm, and also at Esslinger, Jewish
children were driven from Jewish
orphan homes which then were
wrecked Systematically.
In connection with the Ameri-
can representations regarding
property destruction, at least
three claims have been made
against the German government
by American citizens and fourth
was understood to have been
made from outside Berlin.
The economics ministry spokes-
man, discussing the collection of
the $400,600,000 fine, elaborated
upon the announcement of Eco
Monies Minister Walther Funk
that $800,00O,000 in Jewish hold
ings-nearly one-third of the gov
ernment's estimate of all Jewish
wealth in Germany-already had
been seized and "passed into AIRY
an hands,"
The economics ministry said
decision on how to collect the
"fne" would be reached early
next week. 1t estimated that APP
proximately two-thirds of Jewish
stores and shops would disappear
and that all of the remainder
! would be "Aryanized."
