John J. Blair, of the city ;;-ooi:. stated to the board that he jad riide a thorough investigation in d l parts of the city and was of the opinion that scnools should be opened 0n the dates mentioned. Precaution ary measures are to be taken to pre vi'v.i j- further spread of the disease. ,o I'hild fro:n a home where there is pneumonia or influenza willbe per :n'::ed to attend, and all teachers will be instructed to keep a close watch on 1 if students and send them home a: t'le nisi sign of the disease. T,ie iern in the city will begin at j oViOC-k Monday morning. There will he rviiy three hours of school work Monday, this being: divided by a recess.

It :? also planned to have all the teach ers addressed by some physician who will he asked to advise them concern ing precautionary measures that they, in turn, may teach the children how to sa'eguiird themselves against the disease.

' FIVEJ r FLEET CORPORATION OFFICIALS EXPECTED Will Arrive in Wilmington To morrow Morning. Their Minion Ha. N Bee Awonnc. e4 Bat It I Expected That the JHoosins Proposition Will Re ceive Consideration. Representatives of the - Emergency Fleet corporation will arrive in the city tomorrow from Philadel phia to confer, with local rep resentatives at the fleet corpora tion and so the Carolina and Lib erty shipyards. While no official an nouncement has been made as to the mission of these gentlemen, it Is un derstood that it is for the purpose of advising with shipyard officials and local interests engaged in construct ing houses for shipyard workers, rela tive to the government's lending a hand in supplying the necessary' hous ing facilities to accommodate the em ployes of the two yards. The Star carried a story recently, which was based on a dispatch fjrem Washington, p. d, which had to do with the housing proposition in Wil mington, the dispatch stating positively- tljat the government would build houses in Wilmington but it developed later that the story was premature and that no official statement had been made to this effect. It is generally understood here, however, that the government is go ing to assist in housing the shipyard workers, and it is presumed that the coming visit of the Emergency Fleet corporation officials is for the purpose of completing details. If the decision has not already been made in the mat ter it is very likely that some agree ment will be reached while these gen tlemen are in the city and that an official announcement of the status of the housing situation in the city will be made. While in the city it is expected that the representatives of the fleet corpo ration will go over the housing situa tion fully and ascertain just what has been done in the way of providing housing accommodations for the ship yard workers by local interests, and to what extent the government will have to go in taking care of the situa tion. It is the general opinion that Wil mington has done about all that she can in the matter, with the exception of the buildings that are to be erected by the Victory Home company. It is understood that a decision by gov ernment authorities to build homes would have no effect whatever on the activity of the Victory Home company, It being the present intention of the management to continue its building program regardless of any action by the government, unless the govern ment should take over this company's property, and this does not appear at all probable. "STREET CAJRS ARE CROWDED Congestion at Philadelphia Calls Out Same Complaint a Here. A Tidewater official, reading a: com plaint in yesterday's paper about crowded suburban cars, came on a similar kick in The Philadelphia Pub lic Ledger and request is maTTe for publication. indicating congestion everywhere: the clipping reading thus: "Sir: Permit me to call yor atten tion to what I really believe Is the cause of the large number of cases of influenza and the deaths of many of its victims, namely, the overcrowding of the Hog Island trolley cars. It is a common occurrence to pack like cattle 160 persons in one trolley car. The cars are the most improved and up to date in Philadelphia, but there are not near enough of them to handle the immense numbers compelled to use them. The Public Ledger is doing great work in waking, up the city au thorities to the real" importance of cleaning the , streets to prevent the spread of disease and halt the influ enza epidemic for which it is entitled to not only the thanks of its readers, but the thanks of the inhabitants of the entire city, who seem to be not only indifferent but incapable of safe guarding their health and lives. For the protection of the 38,000 working people at Hog Island, may I ask the Public Ledger to lead the battle for the protection of our lives and health." FEDERAL COURT JURORS.

Summerlin, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Summerlin, 75 Delgado, who died at Camp Hum phries, Va., last Friday, arrived in the city last night and was taken to the home of deceased's parents.

Surviving the deceased are his par ents arid three brothers, two of whom are with the American forces In France. m.k.1 : wmnd--FattT ArhnckJe. I "Fatty and. Mabel," KeystoneRoyal. WORK OF BOY SCOUTS Troep .15 Sold S34.SOO Worth of Liberty Bond Daring the Fourth Campaign. The Boy Scouts of Wilmington were of very great assistance to the Liberty loan committees 'in selling bonds of the last three loans, as will be seen from the following summary of the work of Troop 15, which has been compiled by W. H. Montgomery, chairman of the troop committee: "For the benefit of our local citizens, as well as our boys on the firing line, I have compiled an individual Liberty bond record showing what the Bay Scouts of Troop 15 have accomplished since Uncle Sam declared war against the central powers. The Scouts of Wil mington, as well as those In other cities, deserve' much credit for tho ser vice they have rendered our govern ment. The purpose of this informa tion isn't merely to boost Troop 15, although it will hold its own against any in the state, but to advise the pub lic what a potential asset the Boy Scouts are to a community. The effi ciency of the Scout organisation is un questionable and they have overcome difficulties that have been astounding:. Although held in reserve until the last week of the Liberty loan campaign the Scouts did noble work and should be congratulated on the excellent -showing they made, not only in Wilmington but all over the country. "Patrol Leader William Fleet proved himself the hero of Troop 15 during the fourth campaign by selling 71 bonds amounting to $11,500. This brings his total for the second, third and fourth campaign up to 135 bonds amounting to $15,650. LeRoy Brothers and Thomas Polvogt run second and third with $3,100 and $1,500 respectively. (Broth ers and Polvogt run second and third onl yin the fourth campaign.) Although some of the other scohts of Troop 15 did not do quite so well as these boys, they deserve much credit as our Troop would have fallen down if they had not done their duty. One hundred per cent of Troop 15 participated in both the third an dfourth loans." The individual record for each mem ber of the troup during the second, third and fourth loans, is as follows: Name No. of Bonds. Amt. William Fleet ...185 $15,650 LeRoy Brothers 52 4.050 Robert Way 31 3,750 Edward Topp 37 2.250 Ethelbert Loughlin 31 2,150 Arthur King 25 1,400 James McMillan 28 1,600 Kenneth Loughlin , 24 1,350 Harry Davis 24 1,300 Samuel Hawkins 22 1,200 Thomas Polvogt 25 1,500 Richard Wratts 22 1,150 Daniel Ellis 16 900 Thomas Huggins 14 800 Clarence Wilson 11 600 Lewis Ellis 8 40 Thomas Vines 5 300 Augustus Strayhorn 22 1,250 James Bland 2 150 Robert Bell 2 150 Marion Reaves 1 100 Jesse Huggins 1 50 Elmer Jones 2 150 John Tiencken 1 50 W. H. Montgomery 43 3,050 Total 584 $45,300 The reason the scout master of Troop 15. Iva Palmgren, Isn't credited with any sales is easily explained as he works in one of our local banks and did his bit by working on the countless number of bond applications that came through his bank. To give the public some idea as to what $45,300 will do towards winning the war, take the pay of one of Uncle Sam's privates for in stance, or that of a captain. This amount will pay 1,510 privates $0 days or 226 captains 30 days. In conclusion I suggest that our local citizens investigate more fully what an important factor the scout or ganization really is and I am sure you will give the Boy Scouts more con sideration and co-operation in the fu ture than has been given them in the past." DEATH OF MR. QUELCH Passed Away Yesterday Morning After Lengthy Illness Funeral Today. John P.

At the regular meeting of the Rotary club held here yesterday afternoon at the Y. M. C A. a discussion of the un sanitary conditions said to exist in the city resulted in the appointment of a committee to go before the board of health and review conditions complain ed of and request that action be taken looking to their improvement. The matter was brought before the club in a short talk by Rotarian E. M. Beery, speaking on the subject of "It Gets My Goat." The discussion became general, those coming in for adverse comment being a milk dispensary and drug stores of the city, as well as some of the' cafes. It was greatly de plored that such conditions should exist and the club is going to use its In fluence to have them remedied at once, or as soon as the committee can be heard by the board of health. The meeting .yesterday was the first sesion in" a month, the last one being postponed upon the advice of Dr. C. W. Stiles, on acount of the epidemic of influenza that existed in the city at the time for the meeting. There was a fine attendance and the matters trans acted proved of interest. Following the luncheon, which was served under the expert direction of Chief Che. "Tommie" Ames, and First Assistant Paul Bell, President J. C. Williams called on Rotarian David Scott, to preside. Mr. Scott made an excellent presiding officer and conduct ed the meeting with much credit to himself. A letter was read from Dr. G. K. Pat terson, a member of the Rotary club, who is now serving" the government "over there." This letter was received the same day upon which the club mem bership wrote individual notes to Dr. Patterson several weeks ago. Several talks on the subject "It Get's My Goat" were made Ijy Rotarians Eugene M. Beery, S. M. Boatwright, W. D. MacMUlan, Jr., and J. B. Hunting ton. These talks were based exactly on the subject the sentence indicated and called attention to various things the speakers deemed worthy of public attention. Rotarian Huntington told about an accident wherein the flaping of pigeon wings in the basement of one of the hospitals during the recent epi demic, "by the dark o'the moon" got him "scared" and also "got his goat." Rotarian L. D. Latta reported for the committee appointed at the last meet ing to take up with city council the question of congestion at Front and Princess streets. He stated that he appeared before council Monday night, with A. W. Gordon, of the Carolina Shipbuilding company, and that both presented the matter, whicli was re ferred to Councilman Bunting for at tention, and correction. Reporting for Rotarians Bellamy and Hunt, who were absent, Rotarian Huntington urged every , member to lend every effort to the ' united war work campaign to be waged in Novem ber. The allotment for New Hanover county is $57,000. The Rotary club has promised to carry forward the cam paign to a successful end. Reporting for the committa appoint ed at the last meeting to call attention of the county food administrator to prices of meats, Rotarian Huntington stated that information had been filed with J. G. McCormick, as to points he might wish to consider. There was full discussion of the meat question. Several of the members, who were familiar with the supply and distribution of meats, stated that cheaper grades of meats brought in from Argentina for which wholesale prices average from 14 to 17 cents, are sold on the same basis retail, as better grades of meats, which wholesale at from 20 to 25 cents. The point which was advanced is that there is no differentiation between the retail prices of cheaper and better grades of meats, all selling at approxi mately 40 to 45 cents per pound locally, when it would seem that there should be a difference in favor of the consumer if different wholesale prices' are paid. Emphasis was laid by one Rotarian up on the fact that, local staughtered meats, which) in many instances are much better grades, are sent to nearby towns for consumption, while Wilming ton consumers are furnished cheaper grades of meats by retailers at the regular market prices. It was argued that there was no reason why local consumers should hot be sold the bet ter grades of meats in view of the uni form retail prices charged, although no criticism was made against any wholesalers or retailers. It was sug gested that housewives, in placing the4r orders, could specify the sorts of meats they desired, and that such procedure would really enlighten them as to tho grades which might be furnished. It was felt that it was really "up to the Consumer" to find out what he buys and that questioning at times might be beneficial. A suggestion was also ad vanced that there should be a close in spection of all meats brought here and sold, now that the fall season for slaughtering" cattle and hogs has com menced. A committee composed of Rotarians W. D. MacMillan, Jr., J. B. McCabe and Dennis E. Myers was appointed to draft suitable resolutions upon the death of Rotarian E. P. Bj&iley, who passed away recently following an at tack of influenza-pneumonia. Following remarks by Rotarians Ply ler, Boatwright, Roger Moore and J. C. Williams, it was decided to extend grateful appreciation and , thanks to everyone in the community who joined in the relief work carried on generally throughout the city and county during the influenza epidemic. Rotarian W. I. Baxter expressed his appreciation to the members of the club for thei roffer to help him in his business during his recent illness. In Police Court. Sallie Pigford, the colored woman arrested Monday night charged with stealing a pocketbook containing $12, was found guilty in recorder's court yesterday morning, judgment being suspended upon the payment of the cpets and the refunding of" the stolen money. Ellen Frederick, arraigned on a charge of disorderly conduct, was referred to the clerk of the Superior court to be examined as to her mental condition. John .Phillips was fined $10 for gambling: John Smith. was guilty of an assault and paid the cost. ' : Mabel Normand -Fatty Arbuckle. "Fatty ; and : Mabel,"; Keystone Royal CONFERENCE OF WAR WORKERS ARRANGED Will Be Held Here Tuesday, No vember 5. Mass Meeting Addressed by Assoela tlon Workers Who Returned from France Will be Preliminary to War Workers Campaign. A joint conference of the war-fund campaign workers of the 18th distriot. with headquarters tin Fayetteville, and ,the 15th district. " which comprises New Hanover and six neighboring counties, will be held in Wilmington Tuesday, November 5, according to an announcement made by H. Lacy Hunt at a meeting of the committee meet ing of united war workers held yes terday afternoon at 5 o'clock in the Y. M. C. A. building. The conference will be composed of each of the eounty chairmen and va rious committee members from the counties in this and the 13th district, and will be in the form of an all-day session, culminating in the evening in a mass meeting, when addresses will be delivered by George W. Watts, state chairman, of Durham, and Zack D. Dunlap, state director, also of Dur ham, and other war workers who have, seen service on the firing line. The united war work campaign to raise $170,500,000, which will be di vided among the seven organisations, including the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., Knights of Columbus, Jewish wel fare board, war camp community ser vice, American Library association, and Salvation Army in accordance with the work they are performing- in ministering to the soldiers, will be conducted during the week of Novem ber 11-18. At present the organization of the local committees for carrying on the drive in New Hanover is being perfected under the direction of Dis trict Chairman H. Lacy Hunt. Com mittee chairmen are being selected, team members appointed, and prepara tions made to conduct a vigorous drive to raise the funds which are so vitally needed to finance welfare work among the soldiers In France and in the camps and cantonments of this coun try. At the committee meeting held yes terday afternoon, at which repreaentat tives of the seven organizations inter ested in the drive were present, it was decided to open headquarters for the campaign workers in the vacant store on North Front street, owned by Wil liam A. French, provided the building can be secured for that purpose and all business and work connected with the drive will be handled there. A telegram from State Director Dunlap emphasizing the fact that Germany's peace talk should in no way affect the work of the United War Work campaign, as many months must elapse after the declaration of peace before the soldiers can be brought home follows: . "Dr. John R. Mott advises that the whole national organisation is united in the conviction that war work activ ities of the seven organizations must continue to be pressed with furl and increased vigor. When peace comes it will be followed by a long period of demobilization. All military au thorities say that it will' take 15, months to bring the Canadian army home, 18 months for Australian army, and 12 months to brin the American army home. This demobilization period will present the greatest need for our work and by far our greatest opportunity heretofore. There should be no hesitation or change in our campaign plans, except that of enlarg ing and redoubling our efforts to se cure, if possible, 50 per cent over subscription." A second committee meeting looking toward further organization of cam paign workers will be held at the Y. M. C. A. this afternoon at 5:15 o'clock.
