der Two Years of Age with Tox-

Diphtheria.
Fifteen cases of diphtheria in a
small central Pennsylvania village—
a village in which there is no resi-
dent physician or nurse—emphasizes
the fact that diphtheria is still active-
ly with us.
The number of cases of diphtheria
reported in Pennsylvania during the
year 1910 was 14061; in 1920, 16959.
While the number of cases has in-
creased the number of deaths from
this disease in the last ten years has
been cut almost in half by the use of
portance for any fad or foible they
chose to befriend. Though they had
a good eye for form and color, the
other eye was upon the limelight.

Diphtheria, like small pox and
cholera, can be practically wiped out.
‘With small pox this was accomplish-
ed by vaccination; with diphtheria,
the toxin-antitoxin mixture will do
the same.
They had to dress differently from
the ninety-and-nine; it was expected
of them. Such was the man of fash-
ion, who was in the heydey in the
eighties. Whatever his faults, he
must be credited with leading a
movement in behalf of giving the fine

says, “The Schick test determines by
a local reaction, or the absence there-
of, whether or not an individual has
natural diphtheria antitoxin in the
blood. When such natural immunity
does not exist, the logical thing is to
secure it by the injection of toxin-
stantiality. Other days—other ways!
Now, knowhow in clothes is no longer
the prerogative of the few, but the
possession of the many. The changes
in fashion are slower and slighter.
Today, a man is well-dressed not be-
cause he dresses in the extreme of
antitoxin. The Schick test is the first fashion, but because he dresses with
step in the eradication of diphtheria.”
As a result of recent observations
many physicians believe that the on-
ly way to eradicate diphtheria is by a
universal injection of all babies un-
der two years of age with anti-toxin.
The earlier the better, for observa-
tion on 3000 children show that:

extremely good taste. Our viewpoint
has altered. Clothes are not the most
important thing in life. And so the
man of fashion has no place or pur-
pose in the theme of dress.
One’s muffler used to be merely an
article of protection until the ingenu-
ity of designers made it an article of
decoration as well. The introduction
of knitted mufflers has further served
to widen the scope of this engaging
belonging of dress.

A good story is told by Josephus
Daniels, former Secretary of the Na-
er paid to this country.
Asked by Mr. Daniels “What was
the best speech you heard in Amer-
ica?” Lord Fisher immediately re-
plied: ;
“Admiral Sampson’s reply to my
little address at the big dinner in
Philadelphia, when I warmly praised
the American navy in the terms they :
deserved, and expressed a sentiment '
of the friendship existing between the
two great English-speaking nations.
Admiral Sampson wanted somebody
else to reply, but finally rose and
without preface made this brief and
brilliant speech: ‘Well, all I have to
say is this, it was a darned fine bird
that hatched the American eagle.” ”

The Oldest Industry
Before the first ton of coal was mined in
Pennsylvania or the first mill had turned a
wheel, the pioneer farmer had begun to cul-
tivate its rich acres. Today a new genera-
tion tills the same fields under conditions
never dreamed of by the early settlers.
Gasoline and electricity have made the
farmer more of a business man and less a
laborer. He reaches a wider market and
reaches it more quickly than ever before.
The telephone was among the first im-
provements to come to his aid. It puts him in
quick communication with his neighbors and
with the buyers of his produce. It takes him
to the city and in a measure brings the city
to him. The farm has been robbed of its
isolation and lonesomeness.
The Bell Telephone Company of Penusyl-
vania has kept pace with the State’s prog-
ress, and often has been the advance guard
of a community’s development. The
growth of every section may be measured by
the extension of its telephone service.
