Those who are iniliffercnt and fail
to have their children vaccinated are

smallpox, that disgrace and menace
to civilisation, Dr- Victor G. Heiser,
director for the east, International
Health Board, New York City, said
here today in addressing the seventv
fourth annual convention of the
American Medical association. Dr.
Heiser said:
"One hundred and twenty-seven
years ago Jenner made available
knowledge which, if effectively ap
plied, would have brcught smallpoi

have died from smallpox since then.
The anti-vaccinationists of the past
have contributed largely to such a
result, but that is behind . us and
cannot be remedied-

A Girl's Will
The fact that, in answers to questionnaires, only
girl graduates of Des Moines high schools admitted hope of mar
riage and fancy for a home need not be taken w ith discouraging
seriousness by the lads in Iowa. The modern girl knows too much
to be broadcasting her hope of marriage. Hasn't the screen, in
picture after picture, demonstrated the efficacy of aloofness, of
indifference as man-catchers? lm't it common knowledge that a

most of them had their fingers crossed when they wrote their
answers. However this may be, the Des Moines girls probably do
not differ from girls elsewhere, and it is a fair assumption that,
before the record of the graduates is ended, many of the l!0S who
now refuse to admit hope of marriage and home will have become
engaged.
