One way to rates and lfe table expression is a view of the health situation depic ed by physical impairments as re- vealed by competent medical exam- inations and by morhid conditions as ascertained by adequaie records of sickness. With this thought in mind a stuiy was conducted by the Public Health Service extending over more t 1wo vears in a city regarded as typical American small city in one of the eastern States. The informa- tion obtained through this study is of great interest to the general pub- lic as it showa clearly what diseases are most prevalent in the general population. The city in which these studies were conducted may be said to be typical of many other citics of its size in the eastern section of the United States. The principal objrct of this study was g record of illness- 8 that were experienced by a popu- lation gronp composed of persons of all ages and both sexes, and in no remarkable respect unusual. Ths records of ilinesses obtained were of illnesses as reported to experienced investigators. The reports were made by the household informant, usually the wife, either the sickness as ex- perienced by herself or as she ob- served it in her famil; The rate of sickness from cold and bronchitis was the highest, he- ing annually 415.6 per 1,000 persons, Influenta and grippe “with & rate of 143.2 per 1,000; dis eases of the digestive mystem were 96.5 per 1,0M%@: tonsillitis and sore throat 65. puerperal causes 46.9; the nervous system, including head- aches, 44.1; accidents and other e ternal causes, 39.5; Ineasles 3 whooping cough 22.6; rheumatism and lumbago 21.8; heart and other .circulatory discases 18.3.

Up, Guests Are Robbed New York, March 26 (®—Thirty guests in the Greek cabaret in West I8th street, were held up early to- vy by seven armed men who forced them against the wall and robbed them of jewelry valued at several hundred dollars.

First, the nary high incidence of shown in early childhood was a rather surprising result. Tliness was ‘far more frequet under 10 y age than at any other time of life. Second, the interesting was afforded that the ave vidual is more free from iliness in the age period 15 to 24 years after sickness becomes more fro- quent as uge advances 1 it may Ye added, upon the basis of other studies as well as these, that sick- rems hacomes more scvere and fr suently fatal.

The three students & they had planned the move for time but had withheld their resignations until publication of the March issue of the Clark monthly, in which @ sharp at- | tack was made on President Atwood. Speaking of the ideals which ied {them to enter Clark, the three said they resigned because it seems wo were mistaken and this herit former greatness has been complete- ly destroyed.” They expressed the hope t | their resignations would focus atten- tion on Dr. Atwood's administration. The trouble started two months ago when Dr. Atwood, who had gained proofs of a playlet intended | r publication from a source not revealed to the editors, ordered that it he not printed on the ground that ' it was indecent. He suspended the editors of the publication, and for 2 time a student strike was threat- ened, The controversy apparently had been settled after several stu- dent meetings and the resignations came as a surprise, Two of the n who resigned from the school had been appointed to take the place |of the cditors ousted by the presi- dent, Proofs of the March issue contain- ing the attack on him were submit ted to Dr. Atwood.
