Now Havana is one of the world's most healthful cities. The lesson taught fifteen years ago has been applied steadily by the Cubans. In this country the house fly bears about the same relation to typhoid fever and dysentery that the mosquito bears to yellow, fever in the tropics. Both insects are dan gerous germ carriers. This community ought to rid itself of flies. The means of doing so are the same as those employed in ridding Ha vana, the Canal Zone. Manila and New Orleans of the tever mosquito. But the job will not be nearly so big. Our citizens should call a meeting by the middle of next week and form an organization to conduct the spring fly war. There is no time to be lost. Once warm weather arrives the flies will mul tiply faster than we can kill them off. Let us act now! DON'TS STANCELL ITEM Miss Mary Lawretve and' Mr. ' ioo. Stivlr isitt H "i th- home of Mr. B. W.
