PAGE SIX NEW YORK OFFICIAL WARS ON DISEASED HANDLERS OF FOOD ‘All Engaged in Such Business Must Go Examination Before Engaging (By United Press.) . New York, Sept. 29.—If the wait- er sticks his thumb in the soup, send it back—it may be infected. Further- more, people who have diseases have no place in the food business, de- clares Dr. Royal S. Copeland, com- missioner of health for New York City, who advocates a national law requiring waiters, workers in pack- ing houses, grocers and all others who handle- food, to undergo a strict medical examination- before they be allowed to work with food. Commissioner Copeland has al- ready put such a regulation in effect in New York City, where every wait- er or grocer must be examined. He must ‘show his card, issued by the city physician who makes the exam- ination, whenever asked to do so. “No food should be touched by any person who has not been examined and found free of disease,” Commis- sioner Copeland told the United Press. “In this connection, I cannot em- phasize too much the importance of clean hands. Every board of health should see that stores and restau- rants are amply equipped with toilets and wash-rooms. “Every food handler in New York has to pass examination by the board of health. He is given a card. 1If 1 he has tuberculosis, any contagious disease, or skin or blood diseases, which can be easily spread by foods, he cannot work in a restaurant. This relates to waiters, bakers, butchers and all others working where food is handled.” Dr. Copeland said that statistics show an enormous decrease in tuber-] culosis, and other diseases, since the law regarding food handlers was put into effect in New York City. He strongly advocated a similar national law. The “colon bacillus,” which causes diarrhea is a disease that is most readily spread by unclean waiters, said’ “Dr. Copeland, while *“other germs more serious, such as syphillis and ringworm, are almost equally dangerous, since they so quickly af- fect the stomach. “Hand contamination is coming to be looked upon as the most danger- ous that health officials have to com- bat,” declared Dr. Copeland, “it is certainly the duty of every establish- ment handling food to exclude from employment anyone having diseases.” COLORADO DEER HUNTING . SEASON OPENS TODAY (By United Press.) Denver, Colo., Sept. 29.—The ad- vance guard of deer hunters are ar- riving in ‘Colorado today for Wednes- day’s opening of the big game season in this state. The law permits killing only of deer having horns with two or more points on each horn, and the season in Colorado is limited to October 1-4. Deer are reported more plentiful this season than for years past. Nim- rods from all parts of the country, including some men and women well known in public life, are expected to come to Colorado for the sport. The old settlers in the hills have ways of their own—and seasons, too —for getting their venison. They never take a chance of amateur marksmen picking them off in mis- take for a deer. And the cows have been run in off the range for safety’s sake also. The native Coloradoans in the mountains never hunt deer at this season, but the “big game hunt- ers” from the east are flocking in. TEACHERS OF ENGIISH WANTED AT PRAGUE (By United Press.) Prague. (zecho-Slovakia. (By Mail.) —Teachers of English are wanted in Prague and wanted badly. You can’'t get an English lesson at any price in Prague, unless you were one of the first to decide you wanted to learn English and signed up ahead of time. A wave of learning English has swept over Bohemia. Everybody wants to do it, or else learn “Ameri- ¢ ean,” as the language is often called, o= thanks to President Wilson. o Formerly the Czecho-Slovaks had il to learn German as the official lan- guage. Now everyone wants to i know English. world's Lepers. The American secretary for the Mis- slon of Lepers estimates that there are not fewer than 2,000,000 lepers In the world, 6,000 of whom have been converted to Christianity. Apropos of this, the Hawallan legislature has just offered to pension Bro. Joseph Dutton, who succeeded Father Damien at the leper settlement on Molokal. Brother Dutton has not been off the leper island for 33 years and has spent $10,- 000 of his own money to relieve the poor creatures among whom he lives. But he refused the pension, wishing no reward and expecting to work on to the end in the cause to which he long ago devoted his life. The world has heroes of whom it rarely hears; &nd it cannot be otherwise than that such self-sacrifice must win a higher reward than governments or the plaud- its of peoples can confer. ; Lucky Months. Aecording to Dr. Marcello Boldimi, one of Italy’s greatest sclentists, men born between January 1 and March 81 are stronger, taller and superior in In- telligence to those whose birthdays fall in other months. This view Is borne out by the researches of another Ital- fan scientist, Deela Rovere. Short coat of tan jersey, exceedingly smart, with angora finish. an elegant coat. color. STYLES SHOW LITTLE CHANGE Fall Coats and Wraps Very Like Those Worn During the Summer Months. DOLMAN SHAPE IS RETAINED Predictions That It Would Lose Its Popularity Have Been Proved Un. founded—Capes of English Tweed for Those Who Motor. If one has beén dented a fur coat for many years and has secretly cher- ished a longing thereafter, this is the vear, doubtless, when this longing can be gratified, for so expensive are the lovely cloth things that if possession is based on the matter of cost then a decision in favor of the fur can be made, as there will be no very great difference in the price, remarks a fash- ifon writer in the New York Sun. Of course 1 am referring to the elaborate and dressy models which all women admire and not everyone can possess. Of course the sumptuous things of ermine, mink, sable and seal are regal und lovely in capelike and dolman ef- fects which swathe the wearer from tip to toe in a luxury indescribable. Just as In the fall dresses there Is nothing radically differing from styles of recent months, so in coats and wraps there is no departure from ac- cepted models. 5 In Army Style. A favored style is seen in the fine warm coats of camel’s hair following the design of an ofticer’s trench coat helted and close fitted for warmth and comfort. These lovely camel's-hair coats are often mounted with deep fur | collars of softest texture, such as brown fox or lynx. The huge patch; pockets and deep fur cuffs which were so in evidence a season ago are no longer featured so emphatically, ei- ther on this sort of coat or on one of the velvetlike duvetyns or wool velours. The dolman shape persists in spite of the persistent rumors to the con- trary, and many of the most exclusive houses are showing the dolman, not only in the less expensive materials, but in the splendid furs and brocades and velvets as well. Much embroid- ery in self colors done in heavy silken threads is observed—perhaps for the reason that the great cost of fur will place it beyond the average pocket- book. A curious notion is seen in the use of monkey fur placed fringelike along the bottom of short jackets, and used also to trim fur toques. Monkey Fur Not Popular. The use of monkey fur on an even- ing wrap of heaviest black satin is not unpleasing, as it has been cleverly done, but monkey fur will not be great- 1y admired, however smart it may be considered. On the particutar wrap which 1t embellishes the back has been caught up in a sort of overdrapery suggesting the drooping blouse the French makers exploit continuously. The fur is used as a banding under- neath this drapery and extends arownd to the front and down the sides of the coat. The very long hair has ail the effect of fringe and is soft and THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER handsome fur pieces for wear with the one-piece dress that the demand fo the untrimmed coat is met by the man- ufacturers in velvet wraps for evening wear which have no fur whatever about them. These are for the most part made up in rather simple designs with long, loose lines, plain, rather tight sleeves, and resembling elongated jackets. They are very graceful, and It is made of taupe duvetyn with bands of braid, sauce It Is extremely full at the bottom. beaver, with a panel of rich beaver trimming the front. with the addition of one’s own furs are quite as sumptuous 8s the average woman need demand. For motoring some very smart capes of fine English tweed are made with lamb’s wool linings, which unbutton and can be quickly removed. . These traveling capes are a delight for steamer and motorcar, and are copied from trench coats much used by offi- cers during the war. The tweed s so treated that it is impervious to rain. It is found that the heather mixtures and ‘intermingled colored surfaces are much better for a wrap for general w@se than the solid colors, and for this reason smart coats in twilled cords and invisible stripes and mixtures are much in demand for bad weather wraps and general service. Lined With Wool or Flannel. Of course many women find it prace tical to use the coat suit through the winter season, and for this reason have the coat heavily interlined with lamb's wool or flannel. Years ago we often saw the lining of jackets of this sort made of white and gray rubbit skin, also much used for the long and all- enveloping evening 'capes, but rabbit skin is costly these days, and one rarely finds it so employed except for motor and ocean travel. It is quite possible to inzert an in- terlining of one of the fleecy warm woolen fabries without adding clumsi- ness to the coat. No combination is lovelier than one of the soft blue heather mixtures with a soft gray fur. One such coat suit has the plain skirt which is demanded on all the newest models and a rather short jacket in a box coat effect, except that it is not distinetly a box coat, for a belt .placed across the back prevents this. A high collar of gray squirrel tumbles around the throat and also adds cuffs to the tight sleeves. The new coat suits, like the new dresses and wraps, reveal no radical departures in the way of de- sign or lines. silky. The sleeves In this wrap are|a really mere slits in the front sides! and they too are edged with the mon- key fur and form the collar, which is so made that it buttons up around the ears or falls away in a little cape effect. The lining of this handsome wrap is of white satin pailletted with huge black velvet dots. This fashion of doubling material adds as much to the cost as it does to the beauty of a garment and the fall cloak is apt to be as radiant inside—perhaps even more so than the outside. En Less pretentious than this sll*gu wrap and very lovely is a handsome straight-hanging coat of tan camel’s hair with- perfectly unbroken, lipes down the back: except for a tight plain yoke across the shoulders. At the sides a pointed pocket effect is intro- duced in brown seal, and the high roll- ing collar which rumples around the throat is also made of the rich brown seal. The sleeves are long and tight and finished at the wrist with a narrow cuff of the brown seal. This i8 an ex- cellent example of a conservative and beautiful coat suitable for every day- time occasion. Velvet Wraps for Evening. _ So_ many women have_invested_fn Pioneer Publishing Co.
