Mexico's lofty volcanoes, its sheer

its quaint villages Of matched cottages

The first prison exclusively for
women in the State is nearing
completion at Jessup. Expected to
cost approximately $3.50, 900, the
project will accommodate It's pris-
oners and consists of five chief
buildings.

prisoners, are in the group. A CEN
trail heating and power plant also
is being constructed.
The institution has been planned

be installed.
Both men and women prisoners
now are housed at the House of
Correction, which is located about

Warning Of Early
COntagiOn

Keeping away from the sick
person who has not yet been dag
nosed is a precaution all too often
neglected." according to an an
nouncement of county health Off
Ger, V. L. Ellicott today. SIN re-
cent case of serious illness, how
ever, our uneasiness regarding Sec
ondary cases was relieved by hear
ing that during the several days
before Characteristic symptoms
had developed, the patient had
been kept alone with all the GUS
tomary isolation precautions"
"Fever, sore threat, signs of q
common cold with general illness
or diarrhea are strongly indica-
tive of contagion. Precautions
should be taken Immediately. Only
too often, however, during the
early uncertain stage = the stage
which, as a matter of fact, is mos,
contagious little attention is
paid to isolation. Even the consci-
entious mother may be neglectfu
at this time, and yet be most care
full when the doctor has pronounc-
ed his diagnosis. We must remem
Der that germs are no respectors
of formality. They like to invade 6
