This in the United States of America.
The student response to the institution of the Wassermann test in the University has so far been highly encouraging. Students have registered for the test in a steady stream that has not overcrowded the facilities, but has kept the laboratory going at capacity. Indications are that more than the estimated 200 tests will be run this week.
When the War-hoo Trees Are Bare—
"Falling' weather in the land of the Caney Creek Community Center is the sun-less, drab time of the year when the locust trees wizen on their branches and the war-hoow leaves crackle under foot; and the mists linger hoveringly over the fallow bottom lands, when the smoke from the cabin chimneys chokes the valleys." . . . This colorful bit of prose is the opening paragraph in a news letter from the Caney Creek Community Center at Pippapass, Kentucky.
As was expected, no positive reactions have occurred in the tests run to date. However, it is reasonable to expect that a few positives will be discovered. Syphilis can be contracted without the individual's knowledge. Superficial contact with an infected individual when syphilitic sores are present can sometimes lead to an unsuspected infection. This test will reveal all direct infections, indirect infections, and all cases of inherited, or congenital, syphilis.
True, probably only a few cases will be discovered. But if one or two are revealed, if the individuals are given the proper treatment and cured, as they can easily be, the dollars-and-cents value to the individual and to society will far exceed the total cost of the equipment and the expense of the testing.
It goes on to tell that when the "war-hoo trees are naked, then, the 'young-uns' know they may as well shuck themselves in . . . until the ground hog comes again . . . And there isn't much of anything to do while they hibernate . . . no books except the Bible, maybe . . . No place to go except to Cinda's to help sit with the baby . . ."
Do your part by taking the test as soon as possible.
It tells of the few "young uss" who do not hibernate all winter, but go to the Community Center school. But these number only 200, while 1200 in the hills of Knott county and a like number in other counties of Kentucky succumb to "isolation and the lack of realize-

2 Uintie it in reverse of tying process, not just yank it apart, or half unite it and slip it over your head.
1 Never tie the knot *to tight it needs a sailor to undo it.
4 Have enough ties so that they can rest up between wearings. This gives wrinkles a chance to straighten out.
3 **Hang tie up when not in use or (be better!) put it to sleep between a couple of books.**
5 Always choose Ariet ties. They're styled by the same skirts that make Arrow ties. You'll love their long衣.
