".Opening the first quarter of the ijgamc with a series of line bucks ,'and around-end plays, tho Mbrris ' to the very shadow of her oppoi nent's goal. This sustained drive i however, availed the Wolverines nothing, Morehouse taking the bat on downs. An 80-yard kick by Morehouse's freshman?punt i er, Jimmy Washington, put the ball in Morris Brown's possessiot on her own 30-yard lino. There after, neither team progressed be yond the 30-yard line, with Wash - tngton of Morehouse and Walke 3 of Morris Brown composing fo: ' punting honors.

' Tf FIGHT MALARIA | THE ANNIVERSARY OP A BENEFACTOR Disease is much more dealy than dynajnite, and moreover there la a great deal more disease than dynamite in the world.' For reasons best known to ourselves, we attach much more impotence to j the discoverer of dynamite than . to the anniversary of May 13th, which iis quite inexplicable, for i that waa the -day wh?a SIR RON- ? ! ALD ROSS was born, a man to whom all the world should bow ' with the deepest respect. | in tha eyes of science and hu-l manity, he was a very great in_J vestigator. His discoveries were! [carried out very quietly in a hos-j I pital labo/atory. Very few peo- ? pie are aware of all that this si-j lent Englishman discovered aboutmalaria, mosquitoes and qilinine, although these discoveries transformed half the world. One would think a mosquito's stomach is too! small a place in which to find outi many ahrngs, yet RONALD ROSS found out quite a number of most important things. A mosquito that has^Ttung ay | malarial subject, introduces a tiny: i drop ef infected?bluud intu?Itri? stomach. During the digestion of j thvs blood, the malaria germs preserved by the stomach increase, . and then directly contaminate the . person who is stung later on. In other words, the mosquito's body 7 is a small malaria factory and an efficient duffus^r of this terrible malady. SjrjRONALD ROSS was fully " alive to the fact that mosquitd bites are very frequent and create great dangers of contamination. RONALD ROSS'S discovery?even ' if this scientist had done nothing more?was important enough. But he went considerably further. He wrote his book on:' "The Prevention of Malaria", in which he stated that the disappearance of ' all mosquitos would mean the end ' of malaria, but as that is impos1 Bible to achieve, thd only way to [ do away with malaria is to take ^quiTflne regularly. Quinine is al" ways the best medicine for mala* ria. 1 For prophylaxis the Malaria Commission of the League of Na'. tions recommends .a dailv dose -of . 'HTHgrains" bf~ quinine during the , i whole malarial season, and for r \ treatment a daily dose of 15-20 "grains of quinine during 5-7 days.' "j ^ ftor-treatments are omitted, but '! v_all relapses are?treated in?thesame way." r.r - ??71 | EVENING DRESS PARADE , [ COTORFUL AND SUCCESSFUL i ^.PERFORM4krp at petwei. j The Colored Evening Dress pa- ! ^-ratip that wad givdn-TflT Bethel A. ; d M.
