From the manner in which the cases of infantile paralysis are devel- oping in New York city, it becomes evident that something more than half way measures are demarded in the care of those stricken and in the protection. of those who are liable to be stricken 'with the disease, which has already shown a high mortality. While great dependence is placed upon the board of health and the doc- tors and_nurses, it must be realized that everyone has a part which he can play in doing preventive work. In this epidemic where the disease is highly contagious, it is important that strict quarantine be observed. It is necessary that every precaution should be taken to see that the disease germs are net carried from one household to another. Care must be taken to ssee that other ' children are not exposed just because a certain number are a ready sick and every precaution needs to be taken to make sure that those children who are being rushed out of city have not already been ex- posed and are thus carrying the dis- to other communities he advice which is being of- ublicity which 18 being trouble and the best pre- \Dllll the ut- ricts of the e in 11 citie given ventive most get ention and metropolis action is na it ence behalf needed far pref and expense it nd efforts i than is THE LYNCHING RECORD the Tuskegee six months eported by the ave 5 Iyne be tha for there can be no eater D en thou of the common- its people of 10 the an n incre upon of 1at ich ns th menvy record which Yor shon yIu s'must be ha as men when nlists at le. ailieutenant. agze ser's the and ports in the e ade hi has been ed out that there 21,000,000 men is cou who called in case of war.

The Gribbler family surveyed thoughtfully and pronounced the dictum casually. “I “guess we'd better paint tnis spring,” Gribbler had said, as though it was as simple as all that. “Yeg, we're going to paint it over” he told his next door neighbor Smith that evening, detecting in Smith’s sur- veying eye o commiserating pity. “What color?” inquired Smith. “Oh,” said Gribbler, “green, I guess —with white trimmings. T've always ed green houses.” Smith leaned over the fence in his eagerness. “Say!” he cried, “dom't do that, for heaven's salke! You'll just waste your money! Don't you knouw there's no color like green for fading? TFades right out! Besides, you think it's going to go well with he Iandscape and the landscape posi- y swallows green up till you can’t see it! What you want is a good warm brown, with cream trim- mings!” “Smith advised brown.” Gribbler told his wife that night. “He says green Z “Oh, does he?” broke in Mrs. Grib- bler. “Cousin Sarah was here to-day and when I told her we were painting green I thought she was goine {0 have and a icader She—she black w Wi ho wou black-an “No, you don’t!” asgerted his friend. “Besides, there isn't any green in this lot.

You can't beat a red house, let me tell you!” “Now, he's gone away mad,” mourn- ed Gribbler. i He was telling his troubles next da; at the office.

This disregard of tie rights of others is largely haoit, just as tidiness in others is habit. It may be incul- cated by various mathods. If it can- not be taught in any other way there is always recourse to he last resort— arrest and fine.
