Prompt Action Prevents Closing Of High School The outbreak of a case of small pox caused a sudden flurry at the high school Tuesday. Thorough fum igation of school rooms ana the vac cination of all persons who had been in contact with the patient were the measures resorted te in order to pre sent general spread of the disease and closlne. of the school. Due to the pretupt measures taken, city and school health authorities are satis fied' tha danger of general contagion has been obviated. Two cases of smallpox have been reported during the present week and while general vaccination Is not com pulsory, it is pointed, out by the health authorities that needless ex pense, exposure of other individuals and interference with school work and employment could be avoided if all persons would give more thought to the general good results obtained from modern day immunisation methods. Dr. C. E. Cashatt, county health of ficer, states that there seems to be a noticeable tendency on the part of some physicians to avoid the report ing of Influenza cases in country dis tricts. This is required by law altho it does not impose as stringent a quarantine as is necessary in the city, where opportunities for conta gion ore more numerous. County health officials are also investigating reports that caws of the more con tagious diseases, smallpox and scar let fever have not been quarantined or reported in rural districts. To what extent these reports are true, has not yet been ascertained. Klla K.

Prompt use of Vlck'a VapoRub aids in prevent ing colds. For head colds, sore throat or hoarseness, rub Vicks well over the throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel cloth.
