My heart ached at her bravely flippant attempt to conceal the misery which I guessed was her portion in these days. “I already have thought of that, Mary,” I said, and then Lillian's knock sounded on the door, and Mary comprehendingly hurried out. Lillian locked the door behind her and sank into the nearest chair as it utterly spent. “Blessed i3 youth!" she apostro- phized, “You've worked harder than 1 have, and you look as fresh as five little daisies—count 'em—five, I see you have the lady safely tuck- ed away {n the guest room with a | ‘don’t disturb’ sign on her door.” “She needs it,” 1 returned. “She's been through a grcut deal today, and she really was wonderful at the revelation, which must have dis- tressed her sorely.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Jourmal of the American Medical Assoclation and of Hy- gela, the Health Magazine With the passing of the months that contain “r,” oysters temporari- ly pass from the public interest. The time is ripe, however, to discuss some of the reasons why oysters are unsafe fn the warm months and some of the methods that sclence is adopting to control the sanitation of the oyster supply for the future, Oysters that fiave Leen grown in polluted water, as pointed out in & recent bulletin of the United States Department of Agriculture, are undesirable as food. Even if they are fres from germs they {ean cause discasc in human be- lings. | Oysters that have been contami- nated with filth during handling are dangerous to humam beings. Sanitary Surve In order to protect the against such oysters, and state authorities sanitary surveys not only of oys- ter Deds but of all of the sur- rounding country from which drain- | age from polluted beds might reach i the oyster beds. In some states the authorities do not permit oyster fishermen to remove oysters from polluted beds, In other states fishermen are { permitted to take oysters from the restricted arcas and to transplant them into clean water. Since the oyster 1is a living being, it possebses the power of self-purification and | publie sanitarians -, of ridding itsclf of contamination. | | When transplanted therefore into er, it can in time recover, When tests show that it is lfor cdibility, it may be removed and sold. The cleansing process re- Guires hut a short time, particularly {when the current of water and the arrangement of the oysters are such | that there is free efrenlation of pure water among the oysters. Chlorination Experiments Attempts have been made to ap- Iy to the purification of the oys {ter the chlorination method that is used for controliing potability of drinking water. Although it has been proper chlorination revealed t does ot caus: the flavor of ghe oyster, the weork has not bean carried far enough to establish the practicability of this method on a large scale.
