The Music Festival will close to
night (Tuesday night) wit h a.page-
arit given by pupils of R. H. S-.The
four preceding evenings have been
a source of joy, laughter and pleas
ure to everyone who attended it, and
we are expecting this last preform-
ance to be a grand success.
--The Senior and Junior classes
were very pleasantly entertained by
_ . ' - i ,, : i ftSame kind of program
Mr. Gardner, of Oglethorpe Uni- in lt If It is a decided f
versity, recently.He told^hSta abou
his travels in Europe, dwelling
largely on the “Passion Play” which
he saw at Ober-Ammergan in 1910..
Severe Penalty.
The penalty among the Hottentots
for widows who marry again la a
somewhat severe on.e. It is the rule
among these people that before so
marrying, a widow must cut off the
joint of a finger, and present It to her
new husband on the wedding day.
Beware Zinc Poisoning.
Food should not be allowed to stand
for even a short time In s galvanic id
Iron bucket as some of the zfcic coat
ing on the bucket may be dissolved
and zinc poisoning result from eating
the food." . j
Hollanders Like Cake.
In no other country' do cakes play'
such anjhnportant part in the dally
diet of the people of all classes as in
Holland, where they seennjto have an
Infinite- variety and special kinds for
every occasion.
. Underlying all permanent success
must be a sound principle. Under
neath and supporting towns, counties
and states that are progressive, that
are building, advancing and progress
ing along all lines, must be the one
factor tha*^ is absolutely necessary.
Fundamentally all' must have health,
public and individual health; this is
Important; is essential; it is so patent
that it does not need argument to fitts*
tain the assertion; It is so reasonable
that everyone acknowldeges it to be
true. Is it not passing strange that
so little attention is given to it, so
little investment is made'in it? You
would at once pronounce one crazy
who, writing propaganda for a given
community would advertise it as ma
larial or no. They would not boast
of polluted drinking water, with its
consequent Ills of typhoid fever, dys
entery, etc. Oh, no! They would not
claim a high death rate from these
or other like diseases; they would not
claim a high death rate from any cause
as an asset In their advertising a
place of abode. Oh, no! A soli in-
feoted with hookworm would not en
tice even the most ignorant to buy a
few or many acres. Oh, no! The
promoter would not search for this
kind of advertising matter.
We hope that you will think just
a moment about your town, county
and state. How little you really re
gard these everyday matters; how
essential, how fundamental is health,
your health, your families' health, your
neighbors’; how absolutely dependent
you are on it; how dependent your.
State is upon it, and then think how*
little you Bpend upon it The offeial
announcement of the government says
J4.32 is our per capita to maintain our
State government We only spend 3c
toward gur health program/ It is a
crying shame; unless it is altered;
unless more money is put into sani
tation and prevention of disease we,
will pay and pay dearly. The day is not
far distant when Georgia will find out
that she is neglecting the most im
portant of all things. The public
health cannot be adequately attended
to with the niggardly sum of 3c per
capita.
We sincerely trust that the -far-
seeing citizens and especially our law
makers will realize this truth and
give to the State Board of Health
enough money to function as it should.
On the money expended we believe
Georgia is getting more returns than
any of our sister States. She needs
and must have more.
INFANT HYGIENE IMPORTANT
The whole country is interested in
the work of the State Board of Health
in Maternity and Infant Hygiene. An
intensive campaign is being put on
in the Eleventh Congressional Dis
trict, doing in this district a type
of work not heretofore attempted. The
Healthmobile, in charge of Dr. Alice
Moses and Miss Ballard, goes into a
community, holds meetings with moth
ers. examines children and finds their
defects, which are reported to -the
County Board of Health. This unit
is followed in - a few weeks by the
Public health Nurses, who take the
cards of the Healthmobile and go into
the homes of each of ,the defective
children, discussing with the parents
the condition as it was found. Little
mothers’ leagues are formed and lit
tle girls are given lessons. Midwives
are visited and given cautions on
their work, are instructed in the dan
gers, and the entire community is
educated on sanitation and preven
tion of diseases by lectures and mov
ing pictures Two moving picture
machines are carried and much good
work is done.- Everyone Is brought
into the fight against disease; every
organization is enlisted in the fight.
The State Board of- Health has
great hopes for this particular work.
It is financed by the Federal Govern
ment under what is known as the
-Sheppard-Towner law. If the wurk
as' it is now being carried out is
found successful, practical and bears
the necessary fruit, each congression
al district of the State will have the
carried out
success, other
like units may be added.
The children of Georgia are whoop
ing .with whooping cough always at
this season of the year. It ifr-a se
rious'disease, and one against which
children should be protected. The
disease is spread from the secretions
of the. nose and mouth. Ail children
with whooping cough should be iso
lated. ^11 things that they. handle
should be disinfected and all drinking
and eating vessels be boiled.
When the child coughs a handker
chief or napkin should he hek! in
frontVof the mouth. All secretions
from the nose and mouth should be
burned. The vaccines for this .disease
have not been perfected. '
The colleges and universities of our
State have recently had the privilege
J of hearing P^oL Maurice Ricker, of
J Washington, on Sex Hygiene and Ve
nereal Diseases. Almost every one, of
them has requested the. State
Board of Health to nave Prof. Ricker
return for a second lecture.
a Bank
One good way to judge a bank is to
look at the sort of customers it attracts.
The First National Bank of Reynolds is
mighty proud of its patrons, among firms
and corporations as well as among indi-
. viduals., They are the right sort, and
the business they bring us is the right
sort.
And there’s a warm welcome here
for more of their kind.
