in any public school in Maryland
Largely as a result of this law there
have been very few cases of smallpox
in Maryland over a long period of
years-none at all for over ten years
"Diphtheria can be prevented as
readily as smallpox but there is no
State law which requires parents to
have it done. Accordingly, every
year there are always some children
who have the disease because their
parents have neglected to have them
protected against it. 1t is always
possible to have the children pro-
tected against both of these diseases,
through the County Health Depart
ments.
Health examinations of prospec-
tive first-graders have been held in
a number of counties, recently, in
connection with the school health
services. Others are being arranged
in connection with the child health
conferences that are a part of the
regular program of each County
Health Department. throughout the
year. Complete information as to the
dates and places for these conferences
and for the health department clinics
for protection against smallpox and
diphtheria can be gotten from the of
flee of your County Health Depart
ment."

"If you have not had a medical
check-up recently, go to your doctor
for a health examination, just as
you would go to your bank to have
your account balanced. Your doctor
can tell you if you have Overdrawn
your physical account and can ad-
wise you as to the best way to bring
your physical liabilities under con-
troll and to accumulate an effective
working reserve.
Incidentally, one of the advan-
tages of going to your doctor for a
health check-up while you are well,
is that you give him chance to dis
cover disabilities while they are in
the early stages and when the chances
for correction or complete cure are
greatest.
I'm order that they may be re
leased for more important services,
we have begun to conserve tires, tin,
and various other material resources
that we have been accustomed to use
with reckless extravaganza. We can
make an equally important contribu-
ton to the outcome of The war by
conserving the health of the civilian
population. 1t is up to each one of US
to do our utmost in this respect"

to pass it with the worst features

These features included:

levy on everything you earn above

attacked by the CLIO and by Treas

 URGED TO HELP
 IN FAT SAVING
Salvage Campaign of Ur- gent Importance in
 War Program

Juneau residents are urged tC taid in the war effort by saving every bit of fat to be used in mak- ing explosives. The need is urgent and the campaign in Juneau has been opened under the sponsorship of the AWVS and the War Service Committee of the American Fed eration of Women's Clubs. Arrangements have been made tc have the fats collected and shipped directly to Seattle to be delivered to O. B. Joseph, Area Chairman of the America Meat Institute, in care of the James Henry Packing Company, according to Mrs. John Mccormick, chairman of the sal wage committee of AWvS and also chairman of the War Service Com inittee of the AFWC.A
 Boy Scouts Collect
 Collections of fats will be made from households by members of the Boy Scouts if residents will call either the W. c. Kennel residence, black 194, or Mrs. Mccormick at 547.
 Shipments to Seattle from Skag- way, Sitka, Haines, Juneau an d Ketchikan will be handled by the Army Transport Service.
 Fat Depots
 Anyone wishing to deliver fats saved for the campaign may do so by leaving them at the Alaska Meat Company, Sanitary Meat Company or Economy Market where they will be taken care of and turned over to the committee for shipment. Fats are used to make glycerine and glycerine makes explosives. Mil lions of pounds of glycerine ar e needed and housewives are urged to cooperate in the campaign by not throwing away single drop of used cooking fat-bacon grease, meat drippings, frying fats-every kind that is used After they have been used they should be poured through a kitchen strainer into a clean, wide-mouthed can and kept in a cool, dark place until called for. Paper bags or glass containers are not practical.
 Pan drippings from roast ham, lamb and poultry as well as broiler drippings from steaks, chops, veal and bacon are desired in addition to deep fats, either lard or vege- table shortening from fried pota- toes, fish, doughnuts, etc.

MERIT SYSTEM
 CHANGES RULES
 FOR DURATION

In order to relieve the shortage of workers for Territorial Depart ments, recent conferences held by the heads of these departments and the Alaska Merit System have re- suited in several changes in Merit System rules. it was announced today by the Rev. w. H. Matthews Jr., Supervisor.
 It is no longer required, Matthews pointed out, that an applicant un- der the merit system rules have a years residence in Alaska. This rule was passed some time ago to aid the agencies to get new work CTS.
 Time Limit Gone
 Under the new rulings, limita- tions are not placed on the re- cency of experience of applicants. A clerk k-stenographer, for example, may now qualify if she has an education equivalent to graduation from a standard four-year high school including or supplemented by course in stenography n d typing, and at least three years experience in stenographic or cleri- cal work. Formerly, this experience had to be within the last seven years.
 The same change has been made in qualifications for senior clerk and the time limitation has also been taken off for Junior Ac countant.
 Open All the Time
 From now on, Matthews said, applications will be received for positions under the merit system at any time, rather than before specific closing dates. Examinations will then be given as soon as sev- eral applications have been made
 Appointments will still be made on provisional basis and examina- tions to qualify given later.
 Changes were recommended and approved by the Social Security Agency, Children's Bureau and US. Public Health Service.
