NO RATIONINGOF FREEDOM
BY RUTH TAYLOR

There are so many definitions for
freedom. 1t is what you call an allur-
ing Word-because it means all things
to all people
Ask the small boy on a spring day
and he'll answer you promptly, "No
school and the fish biting" Ask the
Spectator, he'll say, "A fat neighbor
who will not struggle against my
divine right to take what | want"
Ask the pioneer, and he will say,
"Uncluttered horizons and a chance to
make my own way" Ask the idealist,
and he will say. "A new world where
all may share Of the bounties of the
earth" Ask the religious man, and he
will say, "A life in which | may WOr-
ship my God according to my own
conscience and obey His holy laws"
Why are there so many definitions?
Because feedom is not static thing.
1t is not rule but a way of life. 1t
is an obligation. 1t is determined by
our relationship to other people. Only
the hermit can be free alone. Free
dom in a civilized community is the
way of life that demands intelligent
followers.
Freedom does not include the right
to carry poison, to talk against our
neighbor, to judge him by his ances-
tors Of his kindred. Only by his COM
panions, may we ever condemn him.
Freedom carries with it belief in the
dignity and sacredness of every hui
man being For all-Jew and Gentle,
rich and poor-there should be unra-
toned brotherhood" is the slogan of
one free community. Freedom must
demonstrate to the world that di-
versty of culture strengthens our ma
ton, feeding with fresh water the
springs of national life.
| Freedom is justice and we must re-
member that in a court of justice
man is honest until proven otherwise
Judgment is not passed on what
others have done. Judge not thy neigh
bors by others. There are good and
bad in every creed and more good
than bad.
One mans freedom is another mans
whether it be in America,
in China, in Norway or in darkest
Africa, No man is really free unless
all men are free No mans home is
safe unless all mems homes are safe
What is freedom to you? Think it
over carefully and then apply it to
your fellowmen, to your brother. 1t
must fit you both, or it is not free
dom.

Protection Against
Typhoid Strongly
Urged BY DR.. Riley
State Health Officer Says Vaca-
ton Is Likely To Be Typhoid
Fever Time

Vacation time is likely to be ty-
phoid fever time. according to DR.. r.
H. Riley, Director of the State De-
partment of Health. THE summer
months, when swimming, camping and
picnics are at their height, are usual
ly accompanied by the years high
est incidence of this disease.
Communication against typhoid
fever is strongly recommended for
persons of all ages who want to enjoy
warm weather activities secure from
the threat of this disease. Protection
is achieved by three NEGOTIATIONS,
usually given one week apart The
treatment should be repeated every
third year, because the immunity con-
ferred does not ordinarily last longer
than three years. If YOU have not been
vaccinated against this disease since
1911 NEGOTIATIONS are, therefore, in
order, Ideally the shots should be
taken somewhat in advance of your
outdoor vacation, for the immunity
requires time to establish itself thor
oughly.
improved sanitation, it is true, has
gone far to lower the incidence of ty-
phoid fever in recent years 1t is
known that every case develops as a
result of consuming milk, food or
water contaminated with human eX-
creta containing the disease-producing
germs. Sometimes such discharges
comes from a patient i'll with typhoid
fever and sometimes from an appar-
entity normal carrier, person who has
had the disease and, after recovery,
continues to discharge its germs. Con-
troll measures to insure safe food and
milk and a pure public water supply,
together with supervision of known
carriers, have made typhoid fever far
less prevalent than in the past.
an spite Of these community safe
guards, personal immunization should
not be neglected." Dr. Riley warns.
"However careful you and the health
authorities may try to be, there is the
possibility Of infection from some I'M
suspected source, particularly during
the summer when people are often
lured into remote places, away from
approved water supplies. By all means
90 to your doctor or to the nearest
clinic for vaccination against typhoid
