PAGE TEN -hie OREGON STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, Wednesday Morning, November 6, 1929 v 4 it k "is n ' is Ml ! - 1 Various Communicable dis eases Controlled by . Expert Work ' t"I ukuj anu;uoo .. - tory; which means that the pro- iactr who has taken this method - to keep his milk sweet or to bnage the taste won't get away t ' with infringement of the law in ' this manner. The-nast summer. 'two eases of adulteration "were xoaad - througa the laboratory enecs. Analysis or Water Required by Law Water analyses are reauired by law to. be made for school .fountains or wells, auto camps, including both. the camp and ur- Ma source. These are taken by - - the sanitary officer or health of fleer, both members of the dem onstration staff, and inspected in the laboratory. Then too, each month since laboratory services were established here, between 50 aod SO shares or cultures have been run through the microscopes for identification of diphtheria, septic sore throat, tuberculosis, venereal diseases, typhoid, dysen tery, and . meningitis. The dem onstration headquarters is not snipped with a laboratory, but .the . Commonwealth Fund ar ranged with the Hollister-Stier laboratories here to carry out the .routine work. With nearly two a day of ' dread communicable disease smears going through identifies- - tion tests, the, protective feature to the rest of the community is readily discerned. Drop of Blood Js Seat la by Doctor Perhaps it will be interesting to follow the physician In his search for the source of a case of sus pected fever which be is watch- lag. When a case of prolonged fever la under observation, - the doctor takes a small drop of blood from the patient and sends it to the county health unit laboratory where the blood Is studied and pot In mixture with known ty phoid germs. If the disease is typhoid, that is if the typhoid ba ccllus is present in the blood of ' the patient, all the bacteria will react immediately, or as the tech nic lan says, there is an agglutin ation or clubbing together of the bacteria. The ease is then reported to - the health officer as positive ty phoid. The health officer then learns from the patient where he or she had been living about - three weeks previous to appear ance of the fever and, this learn ed, the health officer is in a po sition to trace the case back to the source of water. He takes .sample of the water and Also of milk supplies and cultures are takea of these to determine if either Is the -Cause of infection. Of course, the next step is for the kealth officer to condemn orj order and instruct for changes that will relieve the source or s sources of contamination. Within the last two months two instances of typhoid hare occur red In this county. In one, the case developed from a typhoid contaminated well bordering the county limits. The other case or patient was a guest Jn this same . home, who later went to Cali fornia and became ill there. More than one epidemic within the school has undoubtedly been verted through the laboratory ervtcej For as soon as a child Ja school is found to have a sore tiroat, the school nurse or health officer is informed and a culture JfJaken, and In 12 hours a re port la made on whether or not positive diphtheria has appeared. - Meanwhile the child Is excluded from school. If the case is diph theria, cultures are given all oth er children in the room and in ajp ' Other 12 hours any other positive ease or carrier will be picked up i Last year 7 such cultures were " taken In the school room. And 'that number is exceedingly low fa comparison to the C?4 taken - In 19 2C. The lower number of caltnree within the few years is Indicative of the benefit the im munization program has brought to the county. SALEM OF TODAY VASTLY CHANGED (Continued from Pas 1.) - toot and use a fire extinguisher to put out biases on a moss cov ered roof in a South Commercial Street fire. All would have been well he recalls, If he had not been ' dressed in a brand new suit and ' be hadn't slipped on the roof and mined, the new garments. One of the winters he was here two feet of snow fell one 'Bight, - Do you have reason to -qu&tion your vision? , ; Don't delay an examina l tion ihen.' y . V j. ' Wt will examine your eyes 'and -insure y ou r glasses against briakage without charge. : . he recalls. The now wan so hea vy, it was feared it would break down the houses, so he joined the crew of men who were paid as high as $10 nn hour to do the dangerous work of shoveling enow from the roofs. It was that same winter, he says, that no trains came through from the east for more than two months. Mall came up through southern Cali fornia. Morris worked some time for the late Squire Farrar, one of the larger fruit shippers of that day. He tells of the first carload ship ment of fruit Squire Farrar made from Salem. Chinamen wrapped the pears, Morris helped pack and ship and saw it loaded on . th boat, bound for Portland where ix w naippea dj train to -Minneapolis. Morris says freight on the shipment reached a fabulous sura, something like $700, and that the firm barely broke even on the venture. T T In -all fairness to what must have been attempted in the pic ture "His Glorious Night"-now showing at the Fox Elsinore let it be said that the opening scenes of the Vienna race course, the crowds which throng It, the spec tacular riding shown, the terrific tumbles taken by both riders and horses, the details of the picture such as the quibbling between French waiters and guests in res taurants, the defferential courte sy of the police for royalty, for eign accents in minor characters, and the excellent character work done by the support cast, all these are excellent and far beyond the standard of the average picture. It is said that the picture is a "perfect vehicle" for John Gilbert the "perfect lover." ; It may be that the picture has the possibili ties of being such but it is my impression that the director who developed the scenes for this Me tro - Goldwyn - Mayor production must have taken bis cue for love scenes from the "true stories" type of reading material and the result is some very fine actors in some very ridiculous performances and uttering some .very ridiculous lines. Catherine Dale Owen given half a chance would have made an ex cellent foil for Gilbert's intense expression. She is very pretty and has a fairly good voice. Gilbert's voice leaves one in doubt. In the first of the picture it is very bad and in the last it is very pleasing. which is which time will have to tell. One thing is true, Gilbert is hsfndsome. His Prussian uniform fits like a glove and his bearing is perfect the director could not touch that. The plot of the play is inter esting.' Love, romance, intrigue, and a terrific slap at Americans abroad all work together to make picture that one gets much from in spit of its very close ap proach to burlesque in far too many places. , Our Gang" is the comedy and it is a riot. Farina speaks in this and the result is a roar from the audience each time he opens his mouth. It would be difficult to make a better moving picture comedy than this one.

Edge bad come to him and asked if be did not think he was "contamin ated" after sitting between Kuhn, Leob and Company and Morgan and company. The Iowan said he replied that he was "vaccinated against all that stuff. Once more the senate laughed. Senator Brookhart told how Both Kahn and Loomls discussed railroad valuations with him but he also gave the senate a vivid description of his replies to the New York capitalists' and his arg ument against their theories. As for law enforcement in gen eral. Senator Brookhart said Sec retary Melton shonld be removed as the chief prohibition law en forcement officer and "a Smedley Butler or somebody like him who means business to enforce this law" put in his place. Butler, now in command of the marine bar racks at Quantico, Va., became widely known for his attempts to enforce the prohibition law while drector of safety for Philadelphia several years ago. Brookhart said he-thought en forcement conditions, however, had Improved some. He congratu lated President Hoover, Vice Pres ident Curtis and Sir Esme Howard, the British ambassador, upon their personal attitude toward the dry law. He warned that he would In favor of forcing other diplomats to cease serving liquor unless they voluntarily followed the lead of the British ambassador. He complained vigorously of conditions along the Canadian bor der and told of a place known as Toussalnt Twombley's, where be said a barn was located just across the American border from which liquor was smuggled Into this country. He said there were no prohibition agents along the Can adian border and all enforcement was left to the Immigration and customs inspectors. He landed their work. Brookhart took for his text, "the theory that the laws are for the big men as well as the little men and the proper place to be gin enforcement is with the big men."
