Clayton Irwin, Jr., general manager of the Radio Worlds Fair, who is in Chicago putting the finishing touches on the arrangements for the First Annual Trade Show, which opens here on June 13th and is also under his direction. Listeners will be able to hear more stations than ever before during the summer and with the tall will oome a revival of DX interest, in his judgment.

MANY CHILDREN I DIE OF MEASLES Representatives Os State Board Os Health Give Interesting Statistics The seilonsncss of measles, a disease too often considered harmless, Is being stressed In the free conferences and examiuati. us of children of pre-school age. being given in Adams county at present by repiesenalives of tho child hyglue division of thu state bouid of health. Some very interesting statistics on the disease are given by j the representatives. The disease of measles stands next to Scarlet Fever ns a cause of death * among children, because of the lung complications. Some children have measles twice, but most are protected • by one attack. A total of 374 children Idled from measles in Indiana in 1926. I and mote than 1,400 died of bronchopneumonia and other diseases which | follow nieaseles. Not less than 1,000 children .were distinctly injured for ( life by the disease. Often abscesses in the ear, resulting in partial or complete deafness, sole eyes, making them' peinianently weak and sometimes blinding the child; catarrh of the head and intestines often follow the measles. Tubeiculosis Is a common aftermath. Broncho-pneumonia is the most dangerous complication. These statistics aie given because measles is prevalent in some parts of the county at present. Some people still feel that “everyone must have measles sometime and the younger the better”. This is very unnecessary and the sooner people quit exposing their children needlessly and the sooner parents enforce strict quarantine on the children who have measles or who show signs of getting the disease the sooner will more children be saved from death or permanent disability, fit is pointed out. The representatives of the state board cf health examined 31 children in Momwe township Tuesday. The children of Jefferson township were being examined today, at the Jefferson township school building. Tomorrow. the Wabash township children will be examined at Geneva. On Friday, the Hartford township children will be examined at tin Hartford township school building, and the children of Linn Grove will be examined at the Linn Grove school building on Saturday. Parents are urged to bring their children for these examinations. 0 To Dedicate New Hotel At Lake James, June 19 Preparations were under way today for formal dedication by state officials of the new hotel unit in Pokagou Park on the shores of beautiful Lake Janies near Angola in Steuben county, tn' Sunday, June It).
