Additional interest is given the fight which the State Department of Health . is waging against tuberculosis by the( report of contagious diseases in Pitts- t burgh for the past week, which were j issued yesterday. Thirty-two of the j 141 cases of contagious diseases in the j city were tuberculosis, and 10 of the 26 J deaths- rrom these diseases were aue to" the same cause, vlt is to cut down this heavy tuberculosis rate that health officers of the state and the city are directing their efforts to acquaint the people of Pittsburgh with precautions necessary for the. prevention of the diease and for Its treatment where it has been contract Of I . ' : - There are in the city six dispensa-y ries operated by the state and 23 maintained by the city. Eight of the latter are, inoperative through lack of funds, and it is being urged that council make a larger appropriation to take m . i rrv. 1 4 A4l.a- dispensaries operated by the . state in this district outside of the city, as wen as a large numoer maiuiamcu ujr charitable organizations, "ri'he greatest necessity in this work Is to overcome negligence and apathy concerning treatment of tuberculosis. "More attention paid to such cases in the early stages of their development not only arrests the progress of the difaeahe. but aids in preventing its spread. A run is 4)eiore, m fiaic igia-ture intended to meet this difficulty by providing for the quarantine of all persons who cease the treatment of these diseases before they have so far recovered that they are no longer a menace to those with whom they come in contact. Gettysburg Expects ' Team to Show Form GETTYSBURG, PA., Oct. 4. (Special.) Whether or not Gettsburg College succeeded, in holding State College to; a low score on Saturday' is not the all important question among the student body here, as no Gettys-burg'team has done wonders at State since Polly,. Sieber's 1906 aggregation played a 0-0 tie. "What Gettysburg football fans hope for and what they believe Coaches Bill Wood and Doyle Leathers can accomplish is to develop a' winning aggregation in sufficient time to trim Dickinson at Carlisle on November 1, Villa Nova at New York on November 8, Bucknell at Harris-burg the next week and F. & M. on Thanksgiving Day. By the time of the Dickinson game it is expected that Nicely and Bream, two dependable backs, will have rounded, into" perfect condition, thai Moyer will have returned to school and that Fisher will have filled one of the holes in the line. As the team stands at present the outlook cannot be considered bright.

Any Boy Scout erecting and operating his wireless equipment without the permit will be liable to fine or imprisonment or both. Many scouts in the county had , learned much about sejiding and-receiving wireless messages. . When the ban was placed oa wireless apparatus jn America on account of the war and to enable the government to maintain as much secrecy as possible, it was found a Boy Scout here had a wireless outfit which could catch the messages sent from New York to foreign countries. . Gathering Nut. As the nutting season is about to begin all Boy Scouts are advised to gather and store nuts for tree planting in the spring. The wainut is the principal tree selected for planting. Available walnut trees for gun stocks and parts of airplanes were few during the , war, and it took a nation-wide search to assure the government enough walnut was growing in the country to' meet the needs of the gunmakers and the six plane divisions. Full instructions may be had for the storing of walnuts, looking to tree raising. Col. Woods Appeals. Another communication has been received from Col. Arthur Woods, assistant secretary of the navy, calling on Boy Scouts to continue and redouble their efforts in securing reemployment citations. Many scouts are getting promises from employers to take back men who left their employ to fight abroad. . Col. Woods says: 'Remember, anybody is entitled to V. OFF. W.

Coyne of the Supply Company, Thirtieth Infantry, for whom the new1 post is named, were Fourth Ward boys, and previous to the war were inseparable friends. McGrail enlisted September 19, 1917, in Pittsburgh, and was killed in action November 1, 1918. in the Argonne Forest.

If he had only one before the war and taak him back, that employer is ' as much entitled to a citation as the corporation which took back 20,000 soldiers and sailors. Remember, too, that the employer must agree totake back all. Conditional citations are not issued by us." Reports indicate Boy Scouts are numerously on the job, determined to get the service men all back to work. First Aid Instruction. Attention of the Boy Scouts is called to results of the average accident and they are requested to learn directly about the following: How to stop bleeding from the veins on any part of the body; how to apply a gauze dressing to a wound so it will not be contaminated; how to support by splints a broken arm or a broken leg so the patient may be moved; what to do for the bite of a mad dog, the bite of a venomous snake a mosquito and scorpion sting; how to rescue an individual from contact with an electric wire. A scout should produce satisfactory evidence that he has taken advantage of every opportunity to put into practice his knowledge of first-aid work during at least six months since becoming a first class scout. . All that is required in this test is that the applicant secure from the local officers a statement showing his services were available to local authorities to' do first-aid work whenever he was called on. Mr. Ehler pointed out that first-aid often involves great personal risk, but it . develops the highest type of physical and moral courage. "If in the attempt to save another life we lose our own," "Mr. Ehler said, "what greater tribute could be paid to us than-to have it said of us: 'Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for a friend.' " pany with McGrail, but was transferred to the Supply Company of the Thirtieth Infantry and was killed in action July 15, 191S, at Chauteau-Thierry, while bringing up supplies to the front line trenches.
