"PINK EYE" EPIDEMIC
OPENS ATTACK IN CITY
Hundreds Wear Dark Glasses

New Form of Warfare.
r?rtp. the veteran spring bugbear. Is not
confining Itself to the old-fashioned trench
system of attack this season. Just at
present It hns opened lire with a rapid
fire gun which In the Inuguuge of the
oculist la termed conjunctivitis, but in the
good King's English thnt mother used to
speak Is known us "pink eye."
The malady Is the result of the Inspira
tion of modern warfare that hns old
Oeneral Disease In Its grip. The ancient
method of attack by a flank movement
up the spine, with a chill that rattles one'
teeth out and ends with the burning of
a Rheinis Cnthcdrnl In the centre of one's
head, has been elaborated by a subtle air
craft offense.
Some morning if ou wake vvlth a
gummy feeling In your eyes and the pu
pils bloodahot nnd dilated, don't oe
alarmed. It merely means thnt ou hao
grip In the eves. You will be one of hun
dreds of Phlladelphlans similarly nflllctcd
by a seasonal complaint, which, according
to Dr. Oeorge K. de Schwetnitz, is partic
ularly prevalent this year.
