Eugene Doss (lower right) Is the first Alabaman sentenced to prison for participating In a whipping. , Birmingham, Ala., () The state of Alabama has entered a finish fight on masked violence. In a series of sensational inves tigations and trials, reaching into virtually every corner of the state, Attorney General Charlie C. Mc Call has obtained 12 convictions and more than 130 Indictments of persons accused of complicity in midnight "whipping parties." Starting but three months ago with the investigation, trial and conviction of seven men accused of wiiipping Jeff Calloway, youthful farm worker at Oneonta, In Blount county, the attorney general moved swiftly into Jefferson and Crenshaw counties, where state Investigators have laid bare more than a score of lashings. The most sweeping of the flog ging inquiries was made by a grand Jury sitting at Luverne, in Cren shaw county, where 102 indictments for kidnapping and cssault and bat tery were returned October 15. against 43 persons after they had been charged with complicity In 20 or more masked floggings. in its report to Circuit Judje A.

Hearquarters of the Gorgas Memorial are at 400 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago.) Major General Gorgas was a man who went to places that were so filthy and unhealthfuL that no one could live there. He made them so beautiful and wonderful that now everybody wants to go and see them. This does not apply only to clean ing up the yellow fever plague and making the Panama Canal possible, but It applies all over the world wherever Major-General Gorgas went in every institution, home or hamlet. The vision of Major-General Gor gas was such an inspiration to others that everyone who grasped the idea was trying to do likewise.

Since then, every child who comes to the Institution Is vaccinated on the day he enters and from that time to this there has not been an other ease of small-pox. Every year there would be an average of five or tlx cases of diph theria, with an occasional death. Six years ago all the children were test ed in order to see if they could get diphtheria. It was found that 26 of these children were Immune and would not get diphtheria even if they were exposed to It. However, a majority of the 300 were still capable of getting It. 80 all the children were rendered Immune against diphtheria, and since then there has not been another case of diph theria In the school. Such preventive measures were the vision of Maior-General Gorgas. Major-General Gorgas was burled from St. Paul's cathedral with rep resentatives of the king and queen of England in attendance, and his bier was followed through the streets by a riderless horse. AU this was a mark of the highest esteem for this great American by the British gov- ernment. nil'TUUKIA By Orville Harry Brown, M. D. Phoenix, Arix., Member Gorgas Memorial. (The following is one of a series of articles prepared under the direc tion of the Oorgas Memorial as part of Its better .health and longer life program. President Coolidge is the honorary president of the Gorgas Memorial, which has been organized and endowed by promi nent doctors and laymen throughout- the country to perpetuate the work of the late Major-General Gorgas In preventing unnecessary illness. Headquarters of the Gor gas Memorial are at 400 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago.) This Is the season of the year when those who have children get terribly frightened whenever there are complaints of sore throats. Wc wonder If the present generation can quite appreciate the terrors of a people when epidemics of diph' theria came before the days of an titoxln. A child with diptheria Is usually extremely sick much sicker than would appear to be warranted from the amount of fever. The temper ature Is usually from 102 to 103 de grees, which la not high for a child The little patient Is listless, and the skin Is usually pale. A child may, however, have such a light attack U.at he does not even feel ill enough to go to bed. Symptoms as described should warn the parents so that a physl- cian is called early. The doctor will examine the throat carefully, and if there are whitish membranes on the throat or nose he will take small bits of the growth and exam ine it thoroughly under the micro scope, ii diptheria bacteria are found, he will return very soon and give tne cnud an injection of diph theria antitoxin. The whitish mem brane will soon begin to disappear from the throat and nose. By the Schick test we can tell if a child is in danger of taking diph theria after being exposed. The test Is made by placing a bit of to in upon a scratch on the skin. If the child Is in danger of taking the disease, a red area will appear within 48 hours about the spot upon which the toxin was placed.

Kaster, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Kaster who live on Route 6, box 44, Salem. Young Kaster Is a member of the astronomy department of the Uni versity of California.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region It may mean you have been eating foods which create acids, says a well-known authority. An excess of such acids overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels, removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have back ache, sick headache, dizzy spells: your stomach sours, tongue is coat ed and when the weather Is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good, reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablesponful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithla, and has been used for years to help clean and stimulate sluggUh kidneys, also to neutralise acids in the system, so they no longer irritate, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is Inexpensive, can not Injure and makes a delightful, ef fervescent lithia-water drink. Drink lots of soft water.
