SCAELET FEVER
The paat winter haa been an epi-
demic year for acarlet fever. In 1111.
nola acarlet fever
and other forma of
streptococcus Infec-
tions, notably red
■ore throat, have
been more widely
prevalent than at
any previous time
alnce reliable rec-
ords have been
kept Scarlet fever.
In all degrees of In-
tensity, has been
widespread among
children, while
adult* who tmve become Immune to
scarlet fever through liiivliitr hwl the
disease In childhood have developed
the sore throat.
We do not have at this time a prac-
tical public health method of prevent-
ing scarlet fever as we have of pre-
venting smallpox and diphtheria. The
chained or head-like cui-cl of the so-
called streptococci family are still
nam's most dremled bacterial enemy.
They cause scarlet fever, erysipelas,
child-bed fever, septic sure throat and
blood poisoning. Scarlet fever Is mild-
er than It was a decade ago, hut it la
still a serious disease.
Wo use two general principles to
control contagion. One Is preventing
the distribution of the causative agent
of disease. We do this hv a variety of
means, snch as filtration and clilorlna-
tlon of drinking water, proper disposal
of sewage, the pasteurization of milk,
the Inspection and control of food* and
food handlers.
The wholt big field of what we now
call sanitary science has been built up
around this desire of man to protect
himself and his family against the dis-
eases conveyed through water, milk and
other foods.
We have made wonderful progress
In the control of diseases spread
through these channels, such as chol-
era, diarrhea, typhoid fever, etc. These
diseases may, very frankly, he termed
filth dlsei.ses, since they are cnused
by germs which are in the excreta of
the sick person. The well person he-
comes sick by swallowing the germs.
The dysentery outbreak that recently-
occurred In Chicago belongs to this
group. Regardless of where, how and
why one of these diseases occurs, from
our stano'polnt it Is a ttlthy contami-
nation of food.
Now as to the second method of con-
trolling contagion. This Is by vacci-
nation, which mukes people Immune
to the causative agent, One should
took at this general problem of dis-
ease from two standpoints, one, the
host, and the other, the Invader. Vou
and I are the hosts, the germs are
the Invaders. All germs want to live,
the same as you and I. fiernis grow
rapidly;
We have some ways of preventing
scarlet fever. These ways ure not so
gond nor sn I'ftlolent. lis we should like.
It Is possible to vtfeclwi'lc iig.'iinst scar-
let fever by Injecting doses of vaccine,
h'ive separate Injections have been rec-
ommended as the best method, liefore
being vaccinated, however, one should,
have a skin test (lone to see if vacci-
nation1 Is necessary. After the course
of tlve injections, another skin test
should be made to make sure that the
vaccine has been effective and Immu-
nity established. This requires seven
punctures In all. The length of time
a person Is Immune to scarlet fever
Is still In question. This method has
proved successful In preventing scar-
let fever In hoarding schools and with
other groups of children uno'er con-
trolled conditions. Vaccination against
scarlet fever, It must be admitted. Is
not so successful as Is vaccination
against diphtheria.
Anyone recently recovered froin an
attack of scarlet fever Jias disease-pre-
venting substances In his or her body.
Blood from such, a recovered person
can be Injected Into a child during the
early stages of scarlet fever and the
o'isease will run a short mild course.
Sometimes the use of this convalescent
serum, as the blood from a recently
recovered case Is called, will cause a
prompt disappearance of the fever,
akin rash and sore throat.
Scarlet fever antiserum, like diph-
theria antiserum, is available for treat-
ing cases of acarlet fever. But like tha
preventive vaccination methods, the
scarlet fever antiserum does not work
so well as the diphtheria antiserum.
Scarlet fever, like most of the con-
tagious disenses of childhood, begins
as a sore throat. The diagnosis Is
usually made upon the type of skin
rash appearing a few oliys after tin-
onset of the sore throat and fever.
The disease Is contagious from the be-
ginning of the sore throat stage, even
before scarlet fever Is established In
the diagnosis. The contagion Is spresd
by droplets from the throat, and not
In the peeling skin, as many laymen
believe.
One should try to guard children
against contrsctlng the disease, partic-
ularly young children. Ninety out of
each hundred deaths from scarlet ft-
ver occur In rhllnTen between two and
tee years of sg«\ While scsrlet fever
la not a major cause of death now, re
covered cases may hsve permanent and
Irreparable kidney damage.
Scarlet fever lingered longer thla
spring than It has been In the habit ef
Mac. Thla lea da public health ae-
tharltM* to believe that the dlseaee
may have aa tarty flare-op In the caf
las WtaMf.

Amos was a herdsman called of
Cod to be a prophet A prophet is
one who speaks forth the message of
Ood. lie convicts the people of their
sins, pleads for them to get right with
Ood. The only effective way to cor-
red wrong social usage Is to bring the
people Into right relationship with
Ood.
1. The Call of Amos (1.1).
lie was a herdsman and gatherer of
sycamore fruit (7:14). He was. not a
prophet by succession, neither was he
trained in the prophetic schools.
II. To Whom Amos Was Sent (1:1).
Though he was rrom Judah, his min-
istry was to he primarily to Israel.
III. Amos' Message.
I Sins denounced 0.1 C).
s Avaricious greed (^:*J-S>.
II) Sold the righteous for sliver (v.
tl). The Judge, for a hrlhe of silver,
declared the Innocent to he guilty
CJ) Sold the poor for a pair of shoes
(v. tt) It doubtless referred to tli ,
practice of selling Into slavery the
debtor who could not pay for a pair
of shoes which lie had been sold on
credit.
CD Pants after the dust of the earth
(v. 7). So avaricious had these men
become that they even grasped after
the Mtfi'i which the downtrodden poor
cast upon their head In their mourn-
ing because of their misery.
(41 Turned aside the way of the
Micefc (v. 7). These grasping rich men
turned aside the meek, that Is, those
who did not stand up for their rights.
(ft) Licentiousness (v. 7). So no-
torious were the immoralities prac-
ticed that they were even guilty of
Incestuous prostitution How ade-
quately this pictures the licentiousness
of our present age.
h. Iteckless security (6 :l .'t) They
closed their eyes to the approaching
Judgment predicted by the prophet.
c. Luxury (0:4-0). Their luxury ex-
pressed Itself In:
(1) Kxtravagnnt furniture. They
hnd heds of Ivory, which means,
doubtless, wood Inlaid with Ivory.
(2) l,ii7.lness (v. 4). Many stretched
themselves on their couches, thus liv-
ing lives of Indolence.
(.'{) resisted on delicacies i 4).
They bought what they desired, re-
gardless of its cost.
(-1) Adorned their feasts with music
(v. .") They sang idle songs, even in- }
venting musical. Instruinems lor this ;
'pill pose.
(.'■) They drank wine (v. f>) They
drank from howls; indicating exce.-slve
drinking
d. They I'aileU t.< grieve foi Joseph.
Many are toda> indulging III luxury,
entirely Indifferent to the crying heeds
of others. j
2. The remedy proposed (5:4-0').
The prophet called upon them to re i
turn to Ood. The time to repent Is
while divine Judgment Is stayed. In
their turning to Cod they were to re-
nounce :
a. Idolatry (vv. ft, 0). They were
to turn away from the places of Idol-
utry—Itethel. (lllgal, and Iteer-sheha.
b. Seeking to pervert Judgment (v.
7). Turning Judgment to wormwood
Implies the bitterness of the perver-
sion of Judgment to the injured.
c. Seeking to dethrone righteous-
ness (r. 7). "Leaving off righteous-
ness" Is thought to mean that unright-
eousness was allowed to take Its place.
IV. Intercedes for the People (7 :1 >.
The prophet stands here not merely
as the proclrtimer of Judgment, but as
the intercessor for the iieople.
V. Opposed by Amaxiah tha Priest
(7:10-17).
1. Message sent to .lerohonnt (vv. II),
11). The priest sought to hinder the
prophet by Informing the king of the
judgment which Amos proclaimed.
2. He attempted to silence the
prophet (vv. 1'J. 13).
3. The prophet's bold reply (rv. 14-
17).
a. lie declared that he had received
his commission from flod directly (vv.
14. r>). The one who has heard the
call of Ood must he faithful In the
declaration of his message even though
opposed by ecclesiastical and political
lea ilers.
h. Doom pronounced (vv. Id, 17).
He set forth the shnme and distress
of the Itahyloninn captivity, which
ennio upon them because of their un-
faithfulness to Ood.
Aa OvorwholmUf Thought
flow could we bear that overwhelm-
ing thought "Thou knowaat"—the
thought that there Is certainly aome-
where, unless also we bad the convlc
lion warm at our heart*. "Thou Invest"
—the certainty that the deepest cer-
tainty of all la the love of him who or-
ders all.—W, Charles.

SMALL NEED YET
TO WORRY ABOUT
ICE RECESSION
It appeara that our refrigerating
plant Is breaking down. The matter
of the receding polar lea cap haa ior
a long time engaged tha attention of
aclentlsts. Within recent times the
recession ef the cap haa been of
auch proportions that evidence of It
haa been observed within the spsn
of only a few decades.
Por Instance, the Ituaslan Arctic
expert, N. IS. Datsky, in re-exumln-
ing areas surveyed 40 years liefore,
found that In .Siberia, where his
predecessor, I'rofessor Shrenk, found
eternal frost ut the depth of two
meters, there was now no frost at
any de;i!h. not even In the marshes.
In other localities, where Professor
Shrenk found only shrubless tundra.
Mr. Ilatsky saw new growths of
limber:
Only recently. I'rof. It. T. Belknap
of the 1,'nl.verslty of Michigan came
upon a pyramid of rocks and a note
originally placed at the foot of the
Cornell glacier by the late I'rofessor
Tarr. The note was dated 1890. fn
the time Intervening, the glacier had
moved hack three-(|uarters of a mile
from the marker.
It. fi'i (iriggs of the University of
•Vashlngton tells us that lu the
Alaskan tundra country the forest
line Is advancing at the rate of a
mile a century. Trees are now grow-
Ing on land which had been barren
for 100,000 years.
If this keeps oil, you say. Hudson
hay will eventually become a sub-
tropical body of water. Well, what
of It? It litis been several times be-
fore, and. If geological evidence Is
anything to draw conclusions from.
It will he again.
According to \V. J. Humphries of
the United States weather bureau, If
all the Ice of the polar caps melted,
the ocean levels would he raised lfil
feet: And that's something else to
try out on the slide rule.—Karl
t.'hapin In Forum and Century.
