R CAAPTER 10 SUPPORT PLANS TD AMERIANZE FOREENERS Faith Trumbull Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, held a large and enthusiastic open meeting Tuesday afternoon at 3 e'clock at the Community house on Church street in commemoration of the birth of George Washington. The njeeting began with the singing of Amer: | ica by those present. Carl E. Lyons ren: déred America, My Native Land, in fine voice and responded to the outburst. of Mr. Lyons’ | was miven’ a rising.vote of appreciation and Mrs. Elisha E, Rogers, regeni, whd presided at the meeting, expressed: the pleasure of the audience at hearing him and expressed the hope that the chapter would hear him again in song in the near future. ! Mrs. Rogers then extended a eordial welcome, to those present and explained the object and purposes of the D A: R. of which there are &1 chapters in Con- necticut. These aims of the organization are: . : First—To perpetuate the memory.and spirit of the men and women who. achiey- ed American independence, by the acqui- sition and protection of historical spots, and the erection of monuments: by the encouragement. of historical research in relation to the revolution and, the publi- cation of its results; by’ the. preservation of documents and relics, and of the rec- ords of the individual service of revolu- tionary soldiers- and patriots; and by the promotion of celebrations of all patriotic anniversaries. Second—To carry en the injunction of Washington in his farewell address to tha American people, “to promote as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion .of knowledge,” thue developing an enlightened public opinion, and affording to young and old advantages as small develon in them the largest capacity of performing the duties of American citizens. Third—To cherish, maintain and _ex- tend the institutions of American free- dom, to foster true patriotism, and love of country, and te aid in securing for mankind all the lessons of liberty. Mrs. Rogers also explained th cance of the D. A. R. insignia wl the spinning wheel and distaff on which 1s the unspun wool. She then itroduced as the speaker of the afiernoon Chancel- lor Kenneth McGowan of the American International College at Springfield who spoke on the meed of Americanization and the work in educating those of for- cign birth at the college. Mr. McGo- wan saild that the average American as a church memher is sending his money across the seas because he believes that the man over there is worth educating and saving. But when that foreigner seeks the refuge of our shores this same American starts to call names and raises the cry that the foreigners should be kept out of America. If he himseif looked back in his ancestry he would find that not so- long ago his forebears came to America as foreigners. If the same attitude had been shown that man as-he is stiowing :the foreigner, ‘would he have beenthe American that he is today? It is difficult to see how ‘any man can tum aboul and- advocate- the closing of 'the doors of America:to the man who seeks hapoiness in this great land of ours. i1t Americans depended on American labor solely for manufactured products where would we be? Alout four-fifths of the manual labor in. america today is done by those of foreign birth or parent- age.

TOURNS GUNS ON TOBACCO APPROTEIATIONS The Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Connecticut is opposing_the to- baceo section of house resolution No. 15~ 812 which provides an appropriation to the. federa department of agriculture of $32,000—raised by the senate to $41.000 —for eradication of tobaceo plant dis- easos, including “wild fire” and “root rot” in_Connecticut. The state organization of the union has sent appeals to Connecticut's . sena- tors and congressmen to oppose the pro- posed appropriation and it has sent bul- letins to W. C. T. U. branches in the state urging that letters of protest be mailed to their respectize representatives in Washington. The state union is alse oppesing the establishment of a tokaceo experiment station in Connecticut, Mrs. Mary B. Wilson of Plantsville, president of the Comnecticut W. C. T.

The -course "of *the ‘disease ter- minates: by. a.crisis. in- about. {wo weeks. The fatality rate of this disease will run from. 30" to 40 per.cent. if cases are not treated, but in cases properly treat- ed the rate is usuglly about 10 per cent. A The louse transmitting typhus fever is identical with_that of. “cootie” fame in the U. S. army; for this.season, all cit- ies and towns hive expert louse hunters who know this insect. .Every ex-service man knows' that young' lice are whitish, while the glder-lice are grayish and are known as “graybacke. 3 Fortunately, the louse is a slow-crawl- ing ‘insect and enjoyy. the intimate com- panionship With his partictlar host or person on’ whom he’lg Tiving~ana feed- ing, and because he feeds daily he rarely leaves his host unless mechanically dis- lodged. Cn’account of hig dislike for the cold, and the netssity of f ing, it is only when persons are huddled together, as in prisons, fails, or perhaps the cheap- er lodging houses'that the Jouse has op- portunity té ‘travel from. one ‘person to another. * In cases whero pérsons die trom typhus. fever. the louse will natar- ally leave for food eisewhere. The eges of the louse hatch in six to twelve days usually and he lives for sev- en to eight weéeks. A louse will live less than two weeks without ood. The measures ‘n dry to prevent the. spread of typhus fever depend on the de- struction of lice, their eggs..and .in. gen- eral the destruction of their breeding places, by disinfecting buildings, bedding, and clothes, and delousing persons who Larbor these insects. i Lice and their czgs are kifled at a tem- perature of 150 degrees Farenheit by dry heat bakin(g) or if steam sterilizers are used it is cnstomary .to treat infested clothes, . beddiiiz . and, other ‘articles by allowing them to remain for a period of twenty minutes at 220 degrees Farenheit. Liquid disinfelcants, as Benzine and' ker- osine, are excellent for killing lice and r2gs, doing this In about five minutes. Dr. Rosenau suggests the seof- trichlore- thylene (2 per cent.) .or tetrachlore- thane (10 per cent) ‘in place of kero- sine. as they are:mot inflammable. 'Five minutes boiling will also kill lice or their eges. Sulphur dioxide-gas, using at least 3 1bs. of sulphur for every 1000 cuble feet between Bryan F.

Thus, to disihfact 2 housé, the use of sulphur dioxide gas will kill the live in- sects, and kerosine or benzine sprayed on the beds, floors, cracks, etc., will kill the eggs. There remains then the disinfecting of the bedding and clothes by baking or sweam sterilization, after which processes health officers may be sure that there are no lice or eggs left alive.
