Last winter, says the New. . jfork Evening Post, several of these sales we&e held iu Rochester and were followed by a large number of cases of-contagious diseases among ■ children. Some of these, it is said, were1 traced to-tlieir source and were found to have been transmitted di­ rectly from garments purchased at a sale. The tru th is tha t a more insanitary device was never imag­ ined. The stuff sent to the average rummage- sale is usually rubbish, mneh of it having been resurrected from tra sh heaps or -unused closets, and is of no real" use to any one.. The danger of 1urking germs is very real, -and it seems almost criminally ■ "reckless to expose innocent children to it.
