LET YOUNGSTERS HAVE FUN Advico of Phynicl Rather Calls for Mod- Ths rohibi- tion of the Use of eration - works. It the people of Omaha want a Fourth of July, pistols and giant fire- erackers shotld be done away with, accord- g to the opinions of some of the city's leading Some are opposed to fireworks of any kind, but the general opin- fon 1s that the things which need the most attention are toy pistols and glafit fire- crackers, from the use of which the great | number of cases of lockjaw develop. Prompt attention to Injurfes when re- celved Is also suggested as a means of Jessening the evils connected with the cele- bration of Independence day. The use of anti-tetanus serum s advised at a pre- ventive of lockjaw when people are wounded by exploding firecrackers or pow- der burns “I feel that the quektion of a sane Fourth 18 being greatly exaggerated.’ sald Dr. A P.

I believe that the people should be Instructed to take immediate action after injuries have been recelved. “The first thing to do I8 to call a coni- petent physician and in the case of open wounds they should be washed immediately and kept open. The up-to-date physician knows that such wounds should not be sewed up, for this often results in lock- Jaw, When dirt or powder is found In a wound, anti-tetanus serum should be in- jected to prevent lockjaw.

It should be used In time, as it is not a cure, but a preventive of the dreaded disease, “With regard to the sane Fourth of July proposition,” sald Dr. A, K. Detweller, “I would say, do away with the greatest of all evils connected with such celebrations by abollshing the toy pistol. These are used by youngsters who never ought to be al- lowed to handle them and are the cause | of more lockjaw than all the other fire- works combined. Glant crackers also should be prohibited, but thers 1s no use of making & fuse over the small firecrackers.” “If a sane Fourth, sald Dr. Frank Wray, “means a doing away with foolish fireworks, 1 would that I am heartily in tavor of a sane Fourth.

The letter, which was delivered to the water board in Omaha | today, reads “NEW YORK, May 4, 1910.—To the Water | Board of the City of Omaha—Gentlemen: | n common with the Intelligent citizens of | Omaha, the Omaha Water company recog- | Mizes the fact that an additional main to Florence is sorely needed for the safety and | &00d service to the citizens of Omaha. “On July. 21, 1906, 1 wrote your honorable board stating that ‘the board of directors | had authorized me to say that the Water | company will undertake to lay so much of a new main between Florence and Omaha as muy be necessary, provided the water board wlill enter into an agreement, binding upon the eity, to pay the company upon comple- ‘ tion of any portion of the works the total | cost of such improvements, with 8 per cent intereat in addition to what would other- wise be the purchase price.’ “To this letter 1 receive no reply, so on | October 22 of the same year I again wrote | to the water board reiterating the offer which 1 received no reply. “On July 1 1910, the city of Omaha will owe the Omahs Water company, with ac- crued interes approximately $425,000 for past dus unpald hy irant rental. 1f the city will pay the comyany this money 1 will | recommend the bodrd of directors to renew - the proposition mede in our former letters.
