It is essentiaily a disease ol childhood. and very few escape it IRarely seen under five months of age it reaches its greatest incidence be- tween the sixth and seventh years. The younger the child, the morE seriaus the condition. Aniong thE r communicable disease of childhood measies ranks second as a cause cf 'death. and approximately ninety pe, cent of death f rom measies occur i: children under five years of age. IBecause measles is a common dis- ease, it is generally not taken seri- ously by parents, many of whon seem to regard it as an annoying ex- perience whlch has to be gone through, as has the cutting of teeth. This attitude of regarding measles as a trivial condition is flot justif- iable. True it is that the vast major- ity of children who contract the dis- ease recover with no0 apparent iii re- 'suits. It is also true. however, that measles destroy many lives. It may not appear that the child died of measles: in many cases it will be saic that death was due to broncho-pneu- monia. This is correct, but the chutd would not have developed broncho- pneumania if he had not contracted measies. Among the children wha recover f rom an attack, there are many who VICTORY Three interesting and very differ-1 cnt experiences occurred one Sun- jday last fail. In the morning we sat in the chapel o! an historic academny in New England and, while the preach- er praycd, we peeked a little. Our eyes wandered over the bowed heads o! the boys; aur imaginations were bnsy with thaughts af what might be in store for them. Riding back to New York on the train we read an impressive speech by the President ai the United States. When the train stopped at Hart- fard we looketi out ai the window ta sec a crowd fllling the air with rice and confetti, and presently an cm- 'barrassed but happy young couple hurried thraugh the car and into a drawlng room. Of these events-the prayer in the academy chapel, the speech a! Mr. 'Hoover, the marriage ai an unknown and apparently comman-place young couple-which was the most import- ant? Wbich will leave the most last- ing impression an history? No anc can possibly tell. If every child and every happening were labelled "This is important" or "This is unimportant" the business ofa living wauld 50011 lose its zest.
