Tony Murallo had opened a beer garden in the Forties and some of the newspape. men had formed a habit of cating there, Terry wandered over, hoping to find some of the men. He was well pleased and felt like riding them a little. - Doc Biers and Mullins were sitting in a corner when he went in. "Her is," Mullins sneered. "The little go-getter himself." "Hello, fellows Too bad none of you wanted to run down and see what had happened, wasn't it?" "We thought you dou"le-crossed us," Biers said. "We went down af- ter the game.

"Kelly wanted to put me out at first, but decided he could use me for checking up. After that he would not-let me leave," Terry explained. "You'd almost thirk you knew all "about it," Sia Reynolds of the Brook- lyn Leader came up and spoke over Mullins shoulder. "I wish I did," Terry replied. "Kelly _ put everybody through their paces.

"I guess I'll celebrate and have some pig's knuckles and sauerkraut." Terry glanced up after a few min- utes of intensive eating and said, "Say, Isn't that Dutch Klein over there?" "He's working for Tony now. He has been ever since he was" kicked out of the league," Mulling answered. "I thought you knew it all." "That reminds me--" Terry turned to Sid Reynolds.

World is Dazed By Birth Rate Increase In 300 Years Great- er Than in Previous History Baltimore.--Two resewrch workers have counted noses thr tghout the world, figured trends and arrived at the conclusion the peak of world pop- ulation probably will be reached 'ni 12100 with 2,646,500,000. : ; Present population was placed at 2,073,300,000, an Increase "of nearly five-fold 'over the 445,000,000 in the world of 1630, 'the earliest .time of a recorded estimate, : The scientists pointed out that the startling rapidity of recent population wth means that in the compara. tively brief period of 300 years the increase had out-stripped by nearly five times that of al) previous history of mankind, estimated at from 100,000 to 500,000 years, - Little wo.ider, the study implied, that civilization is a little: groggy and dazed by this mul tiplication of {its people. The present rate of growth is ap Freshly one per cent. annually, ut the research workers do not ex- pect this rate to continue. long and believe that in shortly more than 150 years the top will be reached. The scientists who made the count are Dr. Raymond Pearl and Sophia A. Gould of the Johns Hopkins Univer sity School of* Hygiene and Public Health, Their study, published - in "Human Blology," cited the tremend- ous population increase of the last 300 years as a possible basis of some of the unsolved complexities and pro- blems of the modern age. ~Girl Brides .

Protect Your Child From Scarlet Fever 17,681 Cases--242 Deaths In Canada During 1935 Scarlet fever is a disease still very prevalent and serious, In Canada in 19386 there were 17.681 cases re- ported and among those there were 212 deaths. possibility of death and the discom- '| fort of sickness, scarlet fever is a great economic" burden. Cases 're- quire a great deal of medieal and nursing care often in special isola- 3 tion hospitals, while members of °° families may be quarantined away from work and school.~There is good reason for every citizen knowing what can be done to prevent or lessen this disease. . uch can be done to prevent scar- let fever. Parents can have their children protected so that they will Inot "catch" scarlet fever. A series of injections of dilute scarlet fever toxin can be gvien which will in- crease the resistance of the body and prevent the germs from causing the rash and the fever and the sickness. Parents should 'consult their family physician or their medical officer of health about such prevention. 'When a case of scarlet fever is developing, parents can help to con- trol the disease by calling a doctor 'at once, and by keeping the rest of the family away from the child until it is ¢--tain<that it isn't going to be , scarlet fever. Before the scarlet rash appears the patient is usually sick for several days with' a head- ache, sore throat and slight fever. Pep_and appetite are lacking and vomitting may develop. Even at this time the disease is "catching" and other children may get the disease if they are playing or sleeping with the sick one. When there is scarlet fever in the neighborhood and a child falls ill in 'this way, the family physician should be consulted at once and scarlet fever should be suspected even be- fore the rash appears. Even where there are no nearby cases and a rash develops after .several days of gen- eral sickness, a physician's opinion should be obtained. The rash usually starts on the neck behind the ears and spreads down over the trunk to the arms ana legs, but mild cases may be patchy and with a short rash that may go unrecognized. The rash disappears, the skin peels, the fever subsides and the patient usually feels fine by with. in 10 days or to two weeks. But the danger is not yet over. For two or three more weeks there is the danger of complications. Discnarg- ing infected ears, tonsillitis and quinsy; and kidney disease are fre- quently late developments that must be watched for -and also guarded against. . 3 While all this is - happening the parent should observe carefully the instructions of the medical officer of health. The health 'authorities may place a placard on the house, - but the quarantine can only be kept as long as the whole family and their friends honestly abide by the regu- lations. The patient must be isolated from the rest of the family either in hos- i pital or at home. In the latter case {the instructions of the family physi- -cian must be most_rigidly observed. i This will be hard to do for the iso- ;lation 'period runs to four weeks and J |i the patient may feel fine for. the | latter fortnight and yet. ther: can {be no let-up. Children must be kept [away~all the care of washing and cooking separately for the patient must. be kept up and nursing: must ibe careful. and complete to avoid 1#'complicatigns." The temgtation. for a patidnt who feels fine, to get {up and about too soon is very great. But here again strict obedience to "Doctor's orders" is the only safe way. Resumption of the patient's normal life must be gradual and should be carefully supervised by the family - pliysician. - Autumn Fragrance (Catherine Cate Coblenz in Yankee) It is not eyes alone that gather treasure : a In swirls of gold and crimson from the wind, .
