PAT GOBER, Reporter TO THE VOTERS OF FORSYTH COUNTY May I express my sincere appre ciation to the voters of Forsyth County, for the wonderful majority given me in the primary for Soli- I citor-General. I hold no ill will toward those I who voted against me. Sincerely, D. CARL TALLANT Health Department New* By T. E. Nelms, P. H. S. Recently an article was printed urging a county wide fly control campaign. There is no way possible to measure the vast number of dis ease germs that are blocked away from any contact \yith food or ob jects we handle when a fly control program is fully carried out. After seeing the good results from a few minutes of time and effort each day on fly control and while we are still conscious of the fact that we can and are prevent ing the spread of disease germs, lets make an all our drive on the roach bugs that are commonly found at most all homes, retaur ants and grocery stores. It is im portant that th? roach bugs be controlled for they leave their body waste in the form of oily li quids secreted by the scent glands and pellets of excrete on food mat erials and like the fly, on pbjects we handle. Roachy odors may ruin food It may be imparted to dishes stored in cabinets or pantries in fested by roaches. A good roach control program is needed in every home, restaurant and grocery store. Some suggested control measures are: 1. Prevent openings for roaches to enter home. Plastic wood or putty is valuable in closing up the cracks around water pipes entering house and around moulding and baseboards. 2. Keep all storage places orderly 3. Examine baskets and boxes in which food is brought into the home. 4. Clean up and store all food material that needs to be in tight ly covered cans and shelves off the floors. Some chemical control methods are: Chlordane—Most effective insecti cide nJw available for roach con trol Spray with 2-3 percent con centration where roaches are found and follow up .with 5-6 percent powder from which is deadly upon their contact with it. for several weeks later. Lindane: This is another very good chemical control. Use 1 percent spray. The “quick kkill” spray found at most grocery stores is al so one of the best contact sprays but still should be followed up by a power poison. A brush on liquid poison is the safest for use inside dish and food cabinets. Remember keep poison away from children. Forsyth County Election Return* FOR U S.

GUY CASTLEBERRY Infant Poisoned Make* Miraculous Recovery Little Steven Craig Johnson, two and one half year old son of Mrs. Laura G. Johnson, grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Homer Gibson, Route 1, Suwanee was poisoned late Thurs day afternoon by swallowing an undertimed number of Walco tablets, mistaking the tablets for candy. As soon as it was discovered end before any ill effects were not iced the child wa§ rushed by its mother to the office of Dr. Laura Lipscomb who immediately washed out the child’s stomach and was given all other medical treatment that was possible and for some three or four hours the child re sponded wonderfully and it was thought he would have a quick re covery with no ill effects. About midnight or shortly after the child became worse and was soon in a critical condition, but by heroic effort and use of all known medical knowledge and skillful ap pliance, Dr. Lipscomb soon thought she was making some progress against what seemed like all odds. Then while using Oxygen through out the fight against life and death It was found that her sup ply of Oxygen was about out, and about this time Mr. Jimmie Barnes and Mr. Ralph Otwell of the Otwell & Barnes Funeral Home happened to be passing on returning from another emergency Ambulance call and seeing the unusual activity around the office of Dr. Lipscomb, they stopped and offered their as sistance and since their Ambulance was Oxygen equipped the change over was speedily made and the Oxygen problem was solved and due to the most critical changes for the worse Mr. Barnes who has had special training in the use of Oxygen and Artificial respiration stood by and gave the Oxygen which enabled Dr. Lipscomb to ad minister other treatment. Due to the babies continued sinking con dition It was decided the baby would have to have fresh blood plasma, and Mr. Ralph Otwell made an emergency trip to At lanta to secure this much needed blood from the Red Cross Bank. He made a record trip for the blood at this critical time While waiting for blood the baby sank into a complete coma and its res piration was all but gone, but after frantic work on the part of Dr. and artificial respiration and Oxygen by Mr. Barnes for some five hours there were some signs of progress. At this time already calls had been put in to the Duluth Hospital for help and Dr. Mason of the Duluth Hospital joined the fight for survival and around 9:30 A. M. Friday morning the baby was transferred to the Duluth Hospital still under the use of Oxygen and standby aid for artificial respirat ion by Mr. Barnes. After remain ing in the hospital and under con tinued treatment the boy showed continued progress and was soon growing stronger and on the road to recovery and Sunday afternoon was dismissed and is up now play ing and taking light diet It is the purpose that this article is written to publicly thank Dr. Lipscomb and Rev. John Ozley who spent the early morning hours trying to console the parents and grandparents spiritually and also at the request of the family Bap tized the infant during the height of its critical condition. Also they wanted to publicly thank Mr. Jim mie Barnes and Mr. Ralph Otwell for their heroic services and to warn all parents of small children the necesity of keeping all poisons of all kinds completely out of the reach of children.
