The work of the institute far exceeds that of any previous year and is designed to be of great advantage to. the teachers. The work this year deals with the every day difficulties of the school room and eliminates the long tiresome subjects. Mr. K. A.

How is the disease disseminated and contracted? ; u 0 This disease is disseminated practical^ solely by sail pollution, that is,the parasites lay eggs in an infeo- ^ ted individuals bowel, Which eggs escape with the excreta, and children wearing lei Icy shoes or being barefooted come in oentaat with said polluted soil which contains thousand* ot hookworm embryos. These embryoa push tbeir wav into the s|t)n end infect the individual, giving ^ rise to a local condition known as g "grounditch," "oowitch," "dew ^ poison," etc., which is the initial p sign of infection. . "* AT bat are eome of the symptoms? The symptoms vary in severity gj with the degree and infect of iofec- j tion. Most cases present a marked u paleness. If severely infected in tj early youth the individual is frail, dwarfed mentally and physically?a child of fourteen years may appear ' not over ten. The tace, body, and legs are often bloated. Tbe hair maybe dry and brittle. Tbe mmd is dull aqd the patient ( suffers with headaohes, dizziness, ^ lassitude, insomnia or somnolence. ^ In school he or she is Very backward. ^ The disease responds to treatment ^ readily. About 90 per o?pt are ab- ^ solntely cured, S per coot improved { and in very severe cases 5 per cent ^ die. Children op to the age of > seven- ^ teen years are the greatest sufferers from this disease, therefore when children become pale, easily tired out, with joint pains and other symp- . tome aa mentioned above, the par- { ents should call jo the family physician and follow his advice. There has been over one hundred cases of this disease treated with ' .favorable results in Franklin county, ^ about eighty of w.itcb have been treated in and around Lmisburg. ^ Dr. C. F.

The work being done iri^be institutes thin year mainly is a course mapped ont by the leading educators of the State and is especially interesting and instructive. Dr. C. F. Strosnider, of the State Board of Health, Raleigh, delivered a lecture on the "hookworm" and sanitation before ' the teachers on Tuesday morning. The lecture was very instructive and in 1 - -u, _ teresting. The following is a synopsis of what he said-.. Hookworm disease is tropical and sub-uopisal in distribution. , It is a condition brought about by parasites which inhabits the intestinal tract, being about one half an inch long and as thick as a No. 50 thread. They exist at the expense of theii host by drawing blood and in return -excreta a poisonous substance which is absorbed by limit liusi, causing said host to become pale, weak and sick. . Evidence tends to show that hook* r?f- , /. worm disease has existed from time immemorial. Even in the days of the Egyptian Empir the existence of such sd anaemia producing disease had been -Ispoken of, though its cause was not understood.
