——_—_—_———S=Eaye>>EE—————————— The medical profession today is devoting its chief efforts to the study of PREVENTIVE MEDICINE. PREVENTIVE MEDICINE has wiped fevers and scourges from the canal zone and Cuba—the South is being relieved of its terrible epidemics through sanitation and the application of medical knowledge. Yet, certain diseases of the most easily PREVENTABLE NATURE still reap an ever swelling har- vest of death even in the most advanced cities of the United States! And the highest mortality rate comes from those diseases of which doctors KNOW THE CAUSE AND WHICH CAN BE PREVENTED. Most of this valuable knowledge, however, is sealed up in technical medical journals out of reach of the average man or woman, though for years the American Medical association has made endeavors to get it into the hands of the people. HOW IS THIS TO BE DONE?

HERE is a defect in the bill presented by the clubwomen of Seattle to the city council for the appointment of a Woman superintendent to take charge of the juvenile and ‘omen’s protective and rescue work of the police depart- ment. It is the provision which requires, besides a civil service examination, an endorsement of moral character from the Federated clubs, the Y. W. C. A. and the W. C. T. U. That a woman should be in charge of such work may tly be granted. But that the Federated clubs, the ¥.| y. C. A. and the W. C. T. U. have a corner on all the} morality in Seattle cannot be so easily conceded. Without any reflection in the least upon any of the or- ganizations named, it is quite possible that there are some women in Seattle of the highest moral character who are not known to any of these societies. Kind of Clouded . Gouden surely scrambling our ideas of neutrality, con- traband, international law, Hague agreements and such. Here's Charlie Schwab, president of the Bethlehem Steel corporation, who states that he is just back from Europe, after canceling a $15,000,000 order by Great Britain for sub- marines, upon the direction of Secretary Bryan, but with a pocket full of big contracts for furnishing “various munitions of war.” Tt seems to ‘+ violation of neutrality to furnish the boat, se neutrality to furnish the things to make the boat worth) while. War is a gun and powder. The one is practically no good without the other. We will not furnish John Bull a gun, but if somebody else will, we will furnish powder to fructify the gun, so to speak. We're neutral, but we'll help John Bull to fight. Being a bright man, the kaiser may be able to see the halo that’s shining above our neutrality. wr cote WAIT TILC L TAKS ore PS AND I'LL SHOW How RUSSIAN GENERAL STAFF pronounces satisfactory the net re- on ae giants sulte of “the first period of the war.” it me to be a war that’s satisfactory to everybody save those who a fighting.
