How .To
Approximately, 10,000 people in
the U. 8. died of measles in the
year 1923. This did not include a
large number who died of broncho-
pneumonia, is great number of cases
of which in children are caused by
measles.
Approximately 68.2 per cent. of
all cases of broncho-pneumonia oc-
cur in children under five years of
age. This is also the time of life
when measles is most apt to occur.
Nor is the story of the ravages of
measles complete without mention l"
of a large number of cases of tu-
berculosis which follow an attack
of measles. Less frequently. inflam-
mation of the car or eye may be left
behind as a mark of this common
disease.
Measles is a disease of prime lm~
portance.
Measles is a disease of close asso-
ciation. Each autumn when. school
opens there is an increase in the
number of cases of measles until
winter frequently sees the disease
spreading in epidemic proportions.
Many times a. child goes to a
party. Perhaps among the guests
there is one with reddened. watery
eyes. which are sensitive to light.
Perhaps the eyelids are a little puf—
fy. and the guest has a hard. high-
pitched cough.
In this way a single child in the
beginning Bulges of measles may
easily affect 15 or 20 others.
In rather severe cases the whole;
face is swollen and puffed. The
throat is parched and dry. and an
irritating cough adds to tile discom-
fort.
The child is apt to come homel
from school fecling drowsy and lr-l
ritable, frequently complains of
chilly sensations, and may even
have a chill.‘
At night the irritation increasesl
the child is feverish. the white oil
the eyeballs show little red lines‘
upon them, and the sufferer has the
appearance of being just ready l
cry.
Symptoms of Measles
In the morning you will find that
hard palate and back of the throat‘
have become colored a dull angry
red; there may be a few little red
spots on the hard palate. and if you
look closely at the lining illenlbranci
of the check you will see some small
white-tipped reddish spots called
Koplick's spots from their discover
er.
At the end of the day it will be}
found that the fever will be higholl
than it was the night before.
There will be great restlessness
rolling and tossing about the bed
frequent requests for a drink of wai
ter.
This sort of thing will continutl
for three or four days. Tllen littli
dusky red spots will appear on th
hair line; they may look like fie:
bites.
Within 24 hours this rash will
spread over the body. and the child
will look very much bespeckled an?

swollen. In from 5 to 7 days in
rash will begin to fade. and withil
3 or 4 days thereafter will be en
tirely gone. leaving behind perhap‘
a faint mottllng of the skin.
This is followed by peeling of! “it
the outer layer of the skin in little
bran- like pieces This process is
known as dcsquamatlon and lasts
about a week.
In the meantime the fever will
disappear. and us soon as the child
l
has finished peeling he may be no
mitted to go out to play with oth r
children. provided he does not have

Bronchco- pneumonia, the most
bommon and the most fatal of all
the complications of measles. is
. ery apt to occur.
The cough is very painful and
i"death usually follows quickly. These
two forms of measles are in no
lway exaggerated, and unfortunately
lthey are of too common occurrence.
l While all the severe cases may
lnot be grave you should know that
broncho- pneumonia is the greatest
‘menace of measles.
Sometimes there are other com-
lpllcaiions. and the ears. eyes, cent
iral nervous system. the heart and
the skin may. any one of them suf-
fer.
‘1 Rarely there is gangrene at the
corners of the mouth. This may re-
sult in death or horrible deformity.
Measles is a serious disease, and
spares practically no exposed per-
son who has not had it.
For the protection of your chil-
dren and the childrep’ of your
neighbors. you should know that a.
child with measles should be put
to bed and kept away from other
children as long as it has any
fever, cough, or discharge from the
nose.
The room should be airy. but it.
should be darkened. because chil-
dren with measles are very sensb
live to light. The bedclothes should
be thin, because the child is apt to
become too warm, kick off the Qov-
ers. and suffer from a cold. A chill-
ing in this way may predispose to
pneumonia.
Food should be light and should
consist chiefly of nutritious brotbs.
pasteurized milk, soft: boiled eggs,
and the like.
Iced lemonade will prove com-
fortable to the inflamm d throat.
The child's eyes should be kept
clean. and should the fever run
high the comfort of the little suf-
ferer may be increased by sponging
with tepid water and alcohol. Every
child sick with measles should have
’skllled medical attention given by
the family physician.
Remember Those Five Points
You should remember!
.(1) That children with measles
should be provided with a quantity
of soft paper napkins, and as soon
as the napkins become soiled they
should be burned.
(2) That children should be
taught that they must always hold
their handkercblofs in front of the
mouth when coughing.
(8; That everything which has
come in contact with patients-suf-
foring with measles should be ster.
illzed before it is allowed to come
in contact with other people.
(4) That when it is known that
measles exists in a community, no
child with a cold or cough should
be allowed to come in contact with
other children. '
(5) That it is little less than
criminal to permit children known
to have measles to come in contact
with well children. While it is gen-
erally considered that a person can
suffer from measles but once. there
are cases on record of second and

“:3,
Mitchell Seems Certain Winner in
Aviation Fight
WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.”!— No
prosecution ever went into a case
with less enthusiasm than the War
Department goes after Col. "Billy"
Mitchell, for the roast he gave the
army's and the navy's management
of their respective aviation services.
And no wonder, for here's a sit-
uation in which the prosccution is
on the defensive. with the ccuscd
quite indifferent as to his with fate,
llot alters. verdict of guilty against
his sccussrs.
e e t
The Worst of it, from the Wur-
Depaltlnent's sulndlloint, is that
Col. “Billy" can‘t lose. no mattel
how the case ends. The War—and
New—Departments can hardly do
anything else.
Suppose the coloncl's vindicated.
That means he wins, and he can
win only on the ground that what
he said about mintion was justified
-—a frightful pair of black eyes for
the War and Navy Departments
alike.
0n the other hand. suppose he's
found guilty of inaubordination and
even deprived of his commission.
In that event he's a martyr. a
mighty popular one, too, and those
who made him one are correspond-
ingly unpopular for doing so.
I II II
The War Department will try to
disregard what Col. "Billy" said and
concentrate on the proposition that
the way he said it was what made it
insubordinate.
The colonel will admit that he wits
insubordlnute, perhaps, but insist in-
subordimition was a patriotic neces-
sity, because the country's welfare
depended on the broadcasting of the
truths he had to tell.
e e e ,
If the War and Navy Departments
could show that American aviation
really is up to snuff they wouldn't
have so much to fear, but Mitchell
undoubtedly can trove the air lir-
feriorlty of the lniied States to
France. England and Japan, at
least.
The question, "How does this imp:
pen?" arises naturally and Mitchell's
allsivcl, "Official incompetence."
comes in very pat.
lie may not be able to make out
his whole contention—that aviation
has rendered surface fleets obsolets

no position to do anything to him
that will hurt.
if they could hang him or took
him up it would be dlflesent. but the
worst they can do is to dismiss him
from the army.
In some- circumstances this is s

ell s case.
On the contrary. it would be re-

One of tho colonel's suggestions
is quite generally regarded in Wash-
ington as genuinely constructive—
his suggestion that all branches of
Amelica's fighting force should be
grouped together under a. single
scoletnly of national defense.
The obvious tendency of this or-
rangement would be towardOtlie cre-
ation and maintenance of a. well-
roundcd establishment. and the oil-
mination of pulling at cross purpoa-
es, duplication and Jealousy.
There might be rivalry between
the war, navy and aviation aub-
secrclaries. but their cabinet chief
could\ keep it within reason.

The Last Frontier
The- pioneers on the last frontier,
the research workers of science, car-
ry their searches to the distant stars
with their giant telescopes and into
the normally invisible world with
their high-powered microscopes.
But not all the work is carried on
in sheltered observatories and labor-
stories.
The four corners of the earth are
being searche for the facts upon
which the Science of history, evolu-
tion. archeology, biology and others
are based.
Buried cities that tell the stories
of lost civilizations, fossils of huge
monsters that reveal the early days
ofthe world. skulls of prehistoric
men that disclose the path of evolu-
tion—these are some of the things
sought by the scientific explorers.
Others are going into the interior
of Asia and Africa. and to the
islands of the Atlantic and the Pa-
cific. to make collections of the fast
disappearins wild animal life so that
when the day arrives that these
creatures are extinct, future genera-
tions may visit museums and see
what they once looked like.

The third is the James Simpson-

The next two great centers are
the islands of the Atlantic and the
Pacific.
The islands of the Pacific are be-
