Mumps Epidemic on Increase, Say's Doctor Edmiston
Urges Student Co-Operation to Stop Spread; One Typhoid Case in Hospital
The epidemic of mumps among University students, which became widely spread after the Christmas holidays, has increased to an alarming 84 per cent. The number are ten cases of mumps in the Student hospital at the present time and the majority of these students have become ill in the past three
According to Dr. R. H. Elmiston physician in charge of the University hospital, this outbreak of disease is proving a real danger.
Conditions are Serious
"Ordinarily, mumps are not regarded as a serious disease by many people," said Doctor Edmiston, "but when the epidemic occurs under conditions such as we have here at the University, it becomes a serious matter. Every person who is not immune is liable not only to lose condition but also may undergo a disease which is not without its dangers."
The work of the medical authorities has shown decided results. The study, which showed that the co-operation of the student body will be necessary to check its further spread, and recommends a review of the following list of pre-conditions.
There is also one case of typhoid fever in the hospital. Dr. Edminson advises that students who have not been inoculated against typhoid in the past three years should have an eye at their earliest convenience.
Recommendations List of Precautions
1. Mumps is an infectious disease and is aired by contact from one person to another.
2. The infection is commonly acquired by what is known as hand-to-mouth infection, that is, by touching some infected article with the hands. You should not eat food that has been handled by an infected person. Washing your hands before eating or putting anything in your mouth will be a great safeguard against most of the contagious diseases.
4. Many parasites have not but bumps.
This does not mean that they are immune, but merely means that they have not become infecte$_{4}$.
5. The incubation time, or the time clipping between exposure and the beginning of symptoms, is usually 14 hours. If a child knows or suspects that he has been exposed to a case of mumps, should he be treated with doses not spread the disease further?
3. Mumps may be scattered by persons before the disease becomes an parent, or before the patient feels any symptoms or notices any swell

Plans Laid by U.S. for Big Airplane Program This Year
Congress May Authorize Expenditures for New Air Craft and Accessories
No. 98
Washington, Jan. 29—Military aviation engineers here are laying plans for the big airplane building program, which congress is expected to approve within a few years and navy circles over the $29,000,000 cut in the President's budget for general defense, the air services were jubilant over prospects of getting the $18,000,000 recommended by the Air Force for new planes and accessories.
By Ludwell Denny (United Press)
The administration is committed to building up an adequate air force for the country, despite the president's feeling that other branches of the military establishment should take their share of the general revenue by governmental expenses outlined by the administratory economic policy.
Over $85,000,000, it is expected will be spent next year by the government in its various air units. This figure includes expenditures on personnel, experimentation, and utilization of supplies on hand.
About $30,000,000, including over
$150,000,000 for new equipment, will be distributed to the navy, war and
fire; to support direct expenditure on aviation.
Replace Old Machines
The war department's share of this will enable the army to replace some of its antiquated machines and place the air fleet in a less disadvantageous position as compared with the French and British fleets, flying officers point out. Only 100 army planes are now fit for immediate war service, as contrasted with Great Britain, according to those officers. France replacing her machines at the rate of 200 to 300 a year.
Alpha Gamma Delta announces the pledging of Clare Hazel, c28, of Kansas City, Mo.
Including all planes, regardless of condition, the United States army has 1,364, but only 754 are in compression. Almost two-thirds of these are observation planes, leaving a few of bombing, pursuit and attack missions. Only a few of 320 training planes are in adequate condition.
To meet this situation the President and director of the budget agreed to increase the army aviation building appropriation from $2,610,000 to $4,400,000. This was the only significant increase in the entire army budget since 2003. The permit conditions will be elimination of the $145,000 item spent this year on writion senate defense in the Penna Canal Zone.
Quality rather than quantity will contain the policy of the army air service, which initially feeding more on experimentation than on aircraft construction. Even with nest "stars" enlarged building program, only about one-fourth of the direct expenditure will be on constructi-

1—Undicate European nations the country is not liable to sudden attack, and would have some time in which the planes after the declaration of war.
3-The plane of the future will be all-metal construction, which will outclass planes built today.
The policy of spending the bulk of the air appropriation on experiment and training is dictated by the consideration that:
2-Advance in aeronautical science rapidly antagonizes planes; hence the need for new aircraft with an eye to quantity production after hostilities begin. It is pointed out that the United States already possessed such attitude and endurance records.
Despite the general rejoicing here over the increased appropriations in sight for the army, navy and port office air services, there is wide spread feeling here that the basic problem is not only a physical solution or even adequately understood.

She drew some very important lessons from Satan and Pandemonium and disclosed the fact that "Paradise Lost" can be made to fit in with the daily routine of a typical Christian, but also set the editor right about the meaning of "goosebock gooll" which is a luscious goosebock curtail goldmilum used the term in his "Re
