Philadelphia's three Infantry regiments, the First, Second and Third, may return from El Paso October 3. Orders havo been Issued at Camp Stew art, Texas, for the entralnnient on Sep tember 27 of the Pennsylvania troops to be returned home. The choice lies with Major General Clement, commander of the division, but if a suggestion by Major Gen eral Funston, commander of tho Southern Department Is carried out, the three regi ments of the First Brigade will bo the lucky ones. General Funston suggested sending home the first troops that arrived at the border town ten weeks ago. The pecond Iteglment's recent conversion to an artillery unit and the Issuance to It of artillery equipment may cause the Indefinite stay of that unit at the border. In which event It Is understood tho Tenth Infantry, of western Pennsylvania, will be substi tuted for release from duty. The War De partment has not yet confirmed the con version of the regiment. Where the troops will be mustered out of Federal service has not been decided, but because of the excellent weather on the border It Is expected that the transfer back Into State service will be made at Camp Ktowart and tho troops sent direct to their homes without returning to the Mt. Gretna mobilization camp. The trip home will re quire from five to six days. The vacancies In the seventh division caused by the removal of tho three regi ments will bo filled by North Carolina troops, (Consisting of an Infantry brigade, a company of engineers and a field hospital and ambulance company. NO MORE CERTIFICATES 'probable lifting of part of the Infantile paralysis quarantine by tho State health authorities October ! was announced today by Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, State Commis sioner of Health. So favorable has become the situation, no said, that very probably no health certifi cates will be necessary for children under sixteen years ot age who wish to emer me State from sections' free trom me unrnsc. "If the epidemic continues to fall oft In severity, within ten days we shall bo able to remove the quarantine against such States as Louisiana, Colorado and Cali fornia, which have been free, from Infnntlle paralysis," said Doctor Dixon. "Nothing can bo said, however, about lifting Jlhe quarantine against New York nnd New Jersey, whero the epidemic has been bad. We shall havo to study tho situation further." The success of Doctor Dixon's stringent health measures was appreciated by the physicians of tho Stato, according to Di rector Krusen. of tho Department of Pub lic Health nnd Charities. Doctor Dixon's election as president of the Pennsylvania Stale Medical Society reflected the confi dence the State has In hlny Director Krusen said. Vn rfrrlxtnn has been made on Doctor Dixon's suggestion that the scnool children be examined physically before being allowed to enter the public schools, which open Oc tober I. It would bo a "colossal task," Di rector Krusen said, NUr.D 1100,000 Prompt action on the part of Councils In passing the $100,000 needed for the care of children convalescing from Infantile, paral ysis Is essential, according to Dr. A.

Doctor Cairns said that the money should bo appropriated as soon as possible and distributed among tho hos pitals of the city to aid In the work.

The action asked by McCrudden has the hearty backing of Dr, Henry Skinner, en tomologist of the Academy ot Natural Sciences. 'The man who has a dirty stable or who does not have the manure removed periodically, tto my mind. Is a criminal. Ills negligence Is not only an Imposition on his neighbor, but on the general public." Two deaths were reported today, raising the total of 239. Thero were no new cases, tho total remaining at 783.
