Measles Spread
To Mild Epidemic
Stages Over Texas
Measles in Texas is reaching a
mild epidemic stage at present,
with outbreaks following closely
the main lines of travel across the
State, according to information
made public today by Doctor Geo.
W. Cox, State Health Officer.
“The peculiar pattern of this
spread of measles re-emphasizes
the fact that it is a contagious dis
ease, passed on from one person
to another,” Doctor Cox said.
“Guard against exposure by avoid
ing contact with measles patients.”
Doctor Cox said that measles
alone is not necessarily a danger
ous disease, but dangerous compli
cations, such as streptococcus,
mastoiditis, and pneumonia which
frequently follow, make it a dis
ease to be carefully nursed, with
close attention from a doctor.
“Unskilled treatment of a plain
case of measles can result in com
plications which often kill,” Doc
tor Cox warned, “and it is not to
be regarded lightly as simply
another childhood disease.”
Doctor Cox urged parents to
carefully watch children exposed,
and at the first sign of tempera
ture, flushed face, sniffles, or wat
ering eyes, advised that the child
be put to bed immediately and
placed under a doctor’s care.

One or two Army commissions
would be quite enough for any
ordinary family, but the fighting
Ebbeler brothers of Lafayette,
Ind., constitute no ordinary tribe.
They boast of four officers and
another one on the way who will
fly for the Royal Air Force.
From the youngest, Harold—a
flight instructor at the “West
Point of the Air”—to the oldest,
Paul, who is a lieutenant in the
Quartermaster Corps, Seattle,
Washington, the five men have
established a military record quite
unique, with 40 collective years of
National Guard and R.O.T.C.
service behind them.
And, too, they’re scattered any
where from 1,000 to 4,850 miles
apart, minimum and maximum.
The ages run as follows: Harold,
25; Bill, 28; George, 29; Donald,
32; and Paul, 36. Harold, Bill and
George hold engineering degrees
at Purdue University, while all five
