MONDAY. FEBRUARY 19. 1617, N PHILANTHROPIST -]'he Loyal Alumna and Trustee Makes a New Gift. ‘1_ REMEMBERS HER ALMA MATER \ Mrl- Sage Makes a Double Contribu- tion to the School Already Endowed | by Her Husband In Appreciation of _ | _His Wife’s Early Education. Mrs, Russell Sage, a graduate of the mma Willard school, is continuing her benefactions to that institution. Its founder was pre-eminently a - ploneer in securing higher education for women in this country, and she was aided in her efforts by such men as Governor DeWitt Clinton, John Ad- ams and Thomas Jefferson. From the “beginning high intellectual and social standards were maintained at the in- MRS. LUSSELL SBAGE. stitution, and at the time of the visit to America of Marquis de Lafayette no school for women ranked higher n this country than did Mrs. Wil ard’s. During his stay in New York state General Lafayette was entertain- ¥ ed at the school by Mrs. Willard, and he was so favorably impressed that he n%réplimenlefl the founder highly and nded special courtesies to her on the occasion of her visit to France. While the school has had a constant .. career of success during the eight dec ades and more that it bas been in ex- istence, it has been especially favored of late in the efforts of the alumnae ‘1 to have it hold among schools of today {, the same rank that it did in earlier | times. The old seminary buildings C have been replaced by handsome mod ern structures. Many alumnae bave coutxlbuted to the cost. e of the most beautiful and impres- slve of these buildings is Russell Sage hall, which was donated and furnish- ed by the late Russell Sage as an evidence of his appreciation of the work and aim of the institution from which his wife was graduated and of whose alumnae association she is and gas been for some time a loyal mem- €r. The trustees of the institution an- nounced recently that, continuing her line of great benevolence toward this school and the new Russell Sage Col- lege of Practical Arts, Mrs. Russell Sage had given $250,000 toward the ad- vancement of the work of this latter institution. The only requirement is that the money will be used the same way as the original gift of a like amount a year ago, to establish the college. Al- together this makes half a million dol- lars given by Mrs. Sage for this new school. Fumigation Not Best Means of Disinfecting Fumigation as an effective means of killing bacteria has about lost caste among public health workers for the reason that people can’t be fumigated. It is now known that people more than| things are carriers of infection. Disin- fection by fumigation, says the North Carolina state board of health, belongs to a bygone age in sanitary science. Because -formaldehyde fumes will kill cultures of bacteria when exposed to it, it was naturally inferred that fumi- gation was the logical method of all disinfection. But careful observation and tests have proved that diseases are not spread so much by inanimate ob- jects as they are by human beings. Diphtheria, measles, whooping cough, scarlet fever, cerebrospinal meningitis and probably infantile paralysis are all spread through the discharges, mainly the mouth and nose secretions, of people baving the disease. The best disinfection 1s soap and wa- ter, sunlight and fresh air- applied faithfully during the course of the dis- ease. To sterilize all discharges, burn mouth and nose secretions and main- tain strict personal cleanliness in case of sickness reduce the need for any other disinfection of any kind. ‘When people learn that no ill smell- ing fumes or any other mode of ter. minal disinfection can take the place ,of soap, water and fresh air and daily personal cleanliness, sanitary science will have made a great gain. No man- ner of disinfection at the end of illness can atone for careless, wholesale filth | during the course of illness.
