NOTABLE ADVANCE IN
 SANITATION

Amendments of the New York State sanitary code became e1ec- tive Jan. 1, '45, making the "quar~ antine" or isolation restrictions in scarlet fever the same as in septlo sore throat, as 1t has been rec ognized for the past 20 years tnau scarlet fever and septic sore throae are caused by the same germ or oy strains of the StreptOc0ccus hemo- Iyticus - (hemolysis or hemolytio means dissolving or breaking up or destroying red blood corpuscles).
 This Streptococcus hemolyticus IS a wicked, versatile germ. groups or strains of which may cause septic sore throat or scarlet fever; otne; groups may cause erysipelas; anu complications such as acute imam nation or abScess in the mloo!e ear, acute mastoiditis. endocardltls inflammation of heart lining), ar- thritis, peritonitis, pneumonia.
 The new New York sanitary reg ulation stipulates that streptococcc sore throats are to be isolated "urf- til the mucous membranes of nose and throat appear normal and all abnormal discharges from nose, throat ears or suppurat1ng glands Lymph nodes) have ceased" ana isolation in any case shall be TOT not less than seven days and not more than ninety days. Release from isolation depends on nega- tive throat culture and clinical re" covery.
 Notice that nothing is said about the rash. Too much attention has been given the rash of scarlet fever heretofore -t that is, it is of little significance whether there Is rash or whether 1t lasts more than a day or two or whether peeling or skin follows or persists-there IS little if any evidence that scarlet fever or for that matter measles IS or can be spread through mere con- tact with the rash or the skin de- summation that usually follows such rashes. Both scarlet fever and measles are spread through the discharges or SecretionS from nose and throat or from Suppuratlng lymph node or middle ear or other sequel or complication of the acute illness.
 Either scarlet fever or septic sore throat may be spread through milk contaminated by person who has the disease or is coming down with it or has not yet made complete recovery from the disease or from the sequel or complication.
 Scarlet fever or septic sore throat may be spread from person to per- son via the invisibly fine droplets of syray emitted from nose and mouth when a person coughs, sneezes or talks-in quiet conver- sation this spray carries about 21a feet, seldom over five feet Of course in any circumstance a suit able mask prevents such infection.
 Finally, some outbreaks or epi- demics of scarlet fever and septic sore throat have been traced to COWS in 8 dairy herd, COWS having disease of the udder caused b. Streptococcus hemolyticus. Pasturi- zation of the milk pretty certainly prevents infection from such a. source. Pasteurization Is par boiling, heating the milk of 145 or 15O degrees F. and holding at that temperature for thirty minutes, then letting 1t cool again. If pas teurization is not possible, then bringing the milk to boil for one minute makes it perfectly safe for infant or adult.

On the celebration of his birthday, George Washington would have been interested in see- ing what happened in the Con- gress he helped to sire.
 In the Senate, Mcfarland de- livered a dignified, statesman like speech on freedom of the press. Two of the 96 senators were in their chairs. Only Demo- crat was faithful Lister Hill of Alabama. Only Republican was conscientious Harold Burton of Ohio.
 As Mcfarland spoke, other
 senators drifted in and out. Venerable new senator "Admirap
 Tommy" Hart of Connecticut, dressed in snappy tan tweeds in
 sharp contrast to his former Navy Blues, didn't even bother
 to listen, buried himself in a Congressional report. MissOuri's G. o. P. Forest Donnell, who is alleged to look up the Constitu- ton to see if 1t is legal for him to go home at night, idIcd in, picking his teeth. Then he beat exit.
 Mcfarland sat down. Senator Hill rose to deliver an interest ing tribute to George Washing ton, claiming the Father of our country was no isolationist. But Hill had few customers.
 THE MONKEY HOUSE
 Simultaneously, on the other side of the Capitol, things were more exciting. Congressman Frank Hook of Michigan, rising to de- fend the P A. c. against charges by his Michigan colleague, Clare Hoffman, found himself in the middle of a near slugging match with Mississippi's Republican, John Rankin, now called "The Titular Leader of the House Re- publicans." Rankin raced across the floor, jumped on the back of the 195-pounde ex-lumberjack and began beating him over the head. When the two were separated, Republican members chered Rankin.
 Members who were not on the floor moaned when they heard what they had missed. One Con- greSSman cracked:
 'I'd have given a years pay to see Hook slung Rankin-and I can't afford it either"
 A few moments later all was quiet in the House. The Senate had recessed long before. So you can take your pick: Sleep in the Senate; or a slubfest in the House. Thus Congress celebrat- ed the birthday of the Father of our country.
 NOTE: It was lucky for Rankin that Hook did not let loose on him. for the Michigan Congress- man paid for his education by fighting circus wrestler. The cir GUS man first offered $50 to any thre men who would stay in the ring wiht him. Hook was one of three who accepted and stayed in. Then the circus wrestler offered $100 to any two men. Again Hook accepted and won. Finally the wrestler offered $1.000 if one man would stay in the ring. Hook accepted the challenge and won. He used the money to pay his way thorugh Valparaiso.

The school board maintained that

time all teachers were paid on an
individual basis. Attorneys .Dud-

that no matter how qualified were
Negro teachers and principals. sal

The good faith in which the Plan is

Invents New
Cotton Sampling Device

Here's something new in the
sampling Of cotton. Scientists III the
War Food administration have in
vented a device for getting better
samples of cotton and getting them
more cheaply.
At regular intervals during the
ginning of a bale Of cotton this device
takes a small but uniform amount
Of cotton out Of the stream that Is
going into the bale. All these small
amounts Of cotton taken together
make a truly representative sample
of the bale. One Of these uniform
samples can be used to show to
anyone who is interested in the bale
of cotton.
The usual custom in the cotton
trade at the present time is to have
samples cut from the bale when
ever there is a prospective change
in ownership Of the cotton. That, Of
course, means that after a few sales
that the bale is disfgured and some
Of the cotton is lost.
Besides that, such samples fire.
Quently are not truly representative
OF the contents of the bale. Unless
the cotton is exceptionally uniform,
the sample may be cut from the
poorer parts of the bale. or it may
be cut from the better cotton in the
hale.

Extension Cords

Extension cords usually are not
recommended, because it is danger
u to fasten them closely to base
boards or wall. 1t may be neces-
sary to Isl them, however, now that
materials for installing new outlets
are limited. If so, inspect an extern
sion cord from time to time to be
sure 1t has not frayed or worn thin.
Plug an extension cord in an out
let-never attach it permanently. If
you run the cord for a way around
the room, attach it to the base.
board with rubber or fber-insulated
fasteners. Run it around door cas-
ings-never across a doorway, over
steam or hot-water pipes, or over
hot-air registers. Never run a cord
where it will trip someone, where
1t will be walked on, or where furni-
ture may be moved over it. If the
covering is worn off the wires, re-
suit may be a short circuit a
fire . . or dangerous electrical
shocks.

Rubber Thread Clothing
Needs Careful Washing

Wash clothing made of rubber
thread, such as foundation gar
ments and suspenders, with mild
soap and warm water. Handle
gently and stretch as little as pos
sible when wet. Rinse several times.
Dry in a cool, airy place away from
stoves, radiators, or sunlight. If any
garments must be ironed, keep the
iron only moderately warm. and use
it as little IS possible.
To dry a girdle quickly, roll 1t in
a dry cloth and fold over lengthwise
so the garters will not cut the gar
ment. Unroll and hang to dry.
Repair breaks with a patch or
darn as soon as possible. Be care
full not to cut the rubber thread
with the needle. Do not use fine
thread, because that is likely to cut
the rubber. Allow three-fourths of an
inch margin Of mend around the
spot you r mending.
