AU rights of republication of special dispatches herein are also reserved. Richmond's Henlth Record Statistics compiled by the United States public health service show that the death rate from influenza and pneumonia in Richmond during the epidVmic o 1919 was the second lowest in Indiana East Chicago was lowest with a percentage of .09. Richmond's percentage was .11. Tje record is a' flattering one. .A large percentage of Richmond's physicians was in the service, and the physical strength of those who remained was taxed to the utmost to attend to the hundreds who were ill. The co-operation of citizens in obeying the warnings of physicians to refrain from exposing themselves needlessly, and to stay at home as soon as they noticed the first symptoms of the ailment, helped' materially to prevent a widespread epidemic here. The death rate attests to the wisdom exercised at that time. The prevention of diseases by education has made' great strides in the last generation. Persons no longer, believe it is a proof of bravery to expose themselves to diseases. Mothers no longer believe that their children must "catch" all the infantile diseases before they reach maturity. t By trying'to keep well, the public is performing a 'social service of inestimable value. The expense of illness is not measured in the fee of tfie physician, but" in the time lost in industry
and business. The worker loses payment for his time and the employer suffers a decreased output. v The public also has learned that the quarantine measures of physicians are not- acts of tyranny, but preventive measures which are
beneficial to the whole community. Iheir co-
operation in preventing the spread of contagion is a decided factor in preventing epidemics and checking the death rate. The excellent water supply of Richmond and its sewage system are factors promoting good health which we sometimes overlook. Few cities are blessed with the quality of pure water to-be had here.
FASTEST SPRINTER MAY BE GOVERNOR OF VIRGINIA IF CANDIDATE HAS HIS WAY
Checking Immigration to Help Labor Prompt action in conference is promised on the Dillingham immigration bill, which would limit immigration until June 30, 1922. The bill has passed the senate, and Washington correspondents say the house will not oppose it. With at least 2,000,000 unemployed persons in the United States, our own workers need protection against the thousands of Europeans who are seeking entrance so as to escape the onerous responsibilities of reconstruction in their own countries. If they are permitted to land in unrestricted numbers, they will take away jobs now
filled by our workers or will increase the number
of unemployed and ultimately become objects of charity. The average American sees no reason why foreigners should be granted entrance just now when the problem of unemployment is a serious one. If their coming would serve a good purpose, no objection would be raised. The limit set in the bill three per cent of the persons of each nationality residing here in 1910, is generous enough to permit the entrance of aliens until conditions have been stabilized in our country.

KNOCKDOWNS
Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON
J - . MY "RIGHTS. 1 do not lie awake o'nights. until
the clammy dawn, m terror iet my sacred rights should be infringed j upon. My neighbors are a pleasant, lot, their conduct always good, and i no one's slugged and no one's shot in j
all our neighborhood. Each one assumes the. other gents are fair and decent scouts, and so no one his rtghts laments or for reprisals shouts. Year after year we go our way, and never have a row; and I lend Smith a-; 'bale of hay. and he lends me Ms cow. And I could change this atmosphere of peace' and its. delights, and make disordant things appear, if jealous of my rights. For Johnson's hens at times arrive and scratch up all my greens; but better have our concord thrive than raise a crop of greens. And Bildad's ,dog sits by my, gate and bays the moon awhile; but better lie awake till late than miss the Blldad smile. And Hawkins plays , an alto horn that jars things in my flat; but he's all right and I would" scorn
t punch hia head for that. And when losing "Sweet Belle Mahone. as I ami brone to do. no rocks or bricks at!
irie are. thrown, the parlor window through. The others' faults we all forget, and talk of "rights" with tact, and no one's ever offered yet to read toe riot act.
The more a shore Is beaten by the ocean, the more rugged it becomes. Soon all the weak part of the land is washed out and only the rocks remain to receive the lashings of the years. Hawthorne worked for nearly 15 year3 on his first novel. Then he had to publish it at his own expense. And it was a failure! But during the years that he lived in loneliness and almost as a hermit, he accumulated great power power that few writers today are willing to pay for. Even after his marriage, Hawthorne became so discouraged and made go little from his writings that he had to take up clerical work in an office. But then "The Scarlet Letter" was published. And it stands out in the literature of America as one of the greatest books ever wri.tten. Hawthorne was made from his "Knockdowns!" The fact still remains.that the best asset any man can have is to be born poor--and be compelled to fight his way up. Knockdowns put spirit into a man's soul. If you are having a hard time, thank God for the chance to work out of it. The driving, inspiring force back of a score or so of knockdowns have more latent power in them to make you a real figure in the world than a ton of gold or a whole shipload of people ready to hand you a "pull". William H. Seward was- given all the money he wanted for a college education. It is said that he wanted a great deal. But he had a shrewd father. One day the father told the son that ho had given him his last dollar. It was a "knockdown" for the son. But it made him. He became governor of New York and later Lincoln's great secretary of state. And he just barely missed becoming president of the United States. History doesn't make a record of people's knockdowns but it does keep a line on those whose knockdowns made them great.
Harry St. George Tucker, left, and State Senator E. Lee Trinkle. When State Senator E. Lee Trinkle, candidate for governor in Virginia, made the statement that Harry St. George Tucker, Democratic aspirant to the office, was too old to run for governor. Tucker became considerably peeved. Sez he: "If Lee thinks I'm too old, let him race me 220 yards, the winner to take the nomination without further contest." Tucker, who is sixty-nine, says he is willing to pit his age and sprinting ability against Tucker's "youth and avoirdupois." Trinkle is twenty-five years younger than Tucker.
FLORIDA WOMAN ASKS DATA ON GENTERVILLE
The writer of the following letter, which has been turned over to E". M. Haas, seeks information as to early Outerville history and Institutions. Inquiry is made as to the relationship of David Hoover who laid out and named Richmond and the grand parents of Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce: The letter follows: , Sanford, Fla May 2, 1921. President Waynccounty Historical Society, Richmond, Ind. Dear Sir or Madam: I am a greatgreat grand-niece of David Hoover, who laid out and named Richmond, and my Grandfather, Judge John S. Newman, who was David Hoover's nephew, lived for many years at Cenlerville. I had many pleasant visits in Richmond when a small child and later when a young girl with friends, Mrs. Jesse Siddall and Judge Siddall, the Burchenals. the Webbs, and Parrys, but now that these old family friends are gone I shall have to turn to you to give me one or two bits of information, if you will, please. I should like to know the exact re lationshin between David Hoover or
j his parents and the grandparents of
Herbert Hoover of today. And would it be possible for me to get a reproduction of a picture of David Hoover? You may have pictures of different periods of his life, perhaps there exists a silhouette of the period of early manhood? Also, can I get a reproduction of a picture of the old Whitewater Seminary or Academy at Centerville? I once possessed a photograph, but used it with an article on Centerville and it has vanished.
