WINTERVILLE, Ga.—Friends of
little Bebe Wilkes and Mary Bow
ers Wilson are interested to know
that they participated in Miss
Ryne’'s program at the Palace
theater in Athens Saturday morn
ing, December 21, for the Empty
Stocking Fund, =
The friends of Miss Monta Hall
regret to hear that she has resign
ed as fifth grade teacher in our
elementary school. Miss Hall was
given a leave of absence before
Christmas on account of sickness.
School begins Monday, January
6th, after two weeks of holidays.
All the teachers who have been
spending their Christmas vacation
at their homes or elsewhere, will
return this week-end to resume
their scholastic duties here.
Many of our young people who
have been spending tke holidays
with their homefolks here have
returned to their respective places
of work. 5
The weather has been the chief
topiec of events during the holi
days. Snow, sleet, ice, rain, wind
and unusually low temperatures,
which have compelled almost
everyone to stay indoors by the
fireside, are the earmarks of the
winter season which began Decem
ber 21st. Not since the Christmas
of 1917 has the snow and ice re
mained so long without melting.
As our attention is being direct
ed by Father Time to a happy
new year, our minds grow remin
iscent over the achievements of
1935, It is time now, though “to
ring out the old and ring in the
new.” Fresh hopes, new endeav-
ors, greater progress, better ser
vice, more happiness and fewer
regrets should be the goal of 1936.

the almost perfect health of the babies today, Dr. R. A. Dafoe
decided to take no chances with diphtheria., He felt that without
special toxoid protection he risk of that deadliest scourge of child
hood wag too great.
So the five little sisters have now successfully completed a course
of three injections éach of anti-diphtheria toxoid. The first treat
mént was in November and the last just before Christmas.

ments, Speciai sterilizers were installed to guard against any chance
of infection.
MARIE ONLY ONE WHO CRIED.
Marie, tiniest of the quins, was the first to receive the injection
of toxoid. She didn't like it very much and cried a little. But An

FIRST LADY KNOWS HER WAY
AROUND IN NEW KITCHEN
l By RODNEY DUTCHER
Banner-Herald Washington Corre-.
spondent
WASHINGTON—Y our correspon
dent has been out among the
ladies and thus has picked up cer
tain items which could hardly have
come to Him had he been playing
around poolrooms and other haunts
of the male.
One of the most exciting of
these bits of news is the fact that
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt can
find her way around her own Kit
chen, ;
THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
ample seemed to reassure Marie and on the second injection she
showed no sign of discomfort, smiling up proudly at Dr. Dafoe.
By the time the third treatment came around, just before Christ
mas, it had become a game, and al] five of the little girls chattered
and laughed, watching every movement of the doctor’s practic=d
hands as they moved swiftly and surely in sterilizing and adjusting
the hypodermic needle.
When the sun, shining brightly through the windows, glittered
on the shiny instruments, the babies shouted and gurgled with glee.
DOCTOR WORKS SWIFTLY AND GENTLY.
Dr. Dafoe, anxious to add this further safeguard to the health
of the Dionne babies, moved quickly and efficiently from one little
girl to another, administering the toxoid so swiftly ard gently that
none of them realized that anything unusual wag taking place.
When he had finished the first injections, Dr. Dafoe explained his
decision to immunize the quins against diphtheria.
“Diphtheria is the most serious of the common childhood diseases,”
he said. “Protection by means of toxoid is safe, simple and effective,
“All children should be given toxoid at an early age, for it is be
tween 2 and 5 years of age that diphtheria takeg its most terrible
toll of child lives. You may be sure that if I felt there was any
da!er or possibility of harm, I would not have taken a chance with
th&se five most precious lives.”

A Takeoff on First Lady
Another thing which gents were
not allowed in on, but concerning
which your correspondent has cer
tain information, was the Gridiron
Widows’ party at the White
House, given for newspaperwomen.
Some of the girls called it the
“Flatiron Dinner” just for fun,
but they all had a 2 good time when
Mrs. Jay Hayden impersonated
Mrs. Roosevelt, voice and all.
When a lady acting as stooge ask
ed her, ‘“What does Your Majesty
think of the latest fashions for
women?”’” Mrs, Hayden grabbed
a microphone and said:
‘“Whether the beret should he
worn on formal ocecasions is a
matter of taste, I hope that dur
ing the coming summer each little
family will get into its motor and
‘inspect the great natural beauties
of our land.
“Then when the winter comes
you ecan sit happily by your own
fireside and remember the -pleas
ant times you had among the birds
and the flowers and the bees. And
‘besides, the peace of the world lies
}in women’s hands. o

FREE TOXOID SAVES MANY LIVES&.
Dr. J. A. Faulkner, provincial minister of health; took a per
sonal interest in the treatment. The province distributes toxoid frec
to any children whose parentg want them so protecter, and Dr. Faulk
ner believes the $15,000 a year that) this costs is well spent.
2Any intereference with this item of health protection,” said Dr.
Faulkner, “would result in our losing many children by diphtheria.
Toxoid is no longer and experiment., It has proved its worth.”
Ontario figures indicate that the use of toxoid has cut diphtheria
cases by more than 90 per cent and made the number of deaths al
most negligible,

BILL FOR REFERENDUM BEFORE U. S.
GOES TO WAR GAINING SUPPORT
WASHINGTON.—One of those
far-reaching measures which
sometimes suddenly develop a fast
pair of legs is the proposal for a
national referendum prior to Am
erican entry into any war.
The idea is embodied in a bill
now before the house judiciary
cominittee, offerde by Congress
man Louis Ludlow of Indiana,
who says 55 or 60 members of
congress already are pledged
It may appear too radiecal to
get far. Nevertheless, two years
ago it was generally supposed
that the munitions industries were
prowerful enough to block any in
vestigation of themselves.
No one foresaw the current
wave of neutrality sentiment og
the concrete legislation stemming
from it—or the strong peace sen
timent in England which has =o
startled British politicians.
The railroad brotherhoods, cer
tain other unions, and some wom
en's organizations are formally
behind Ludlow. Colonel Arthur
W. Littie, who is at least’ import
ant enough to have landed on the
Bob Lucas list of Republican
presidential possibilities, is here
urging a type of war referendum
which would' automatically enlist
aflirmative votes for the armed
forces.
The Little statement was re
leased from the Veterans of For
eign Wars publicity office. Inquiry
reveals that the V. F. W. had no
connection with it, informal or
otherwise, but indicates that its
leaders would favor the general
idea,.
Drys Show New Life
Improvement in business is be.
ing experienced by the prohibi
tionists and the once familiar
“Clipsheet” of the Methodist
Board of Temperance, Prohibition,
and Public. Morals suddenly is
again being published.
Once one of the most celebrated
vehicles of dry propaganda, the
“Clipsheet” disappeared after re
peal, because people stopped con
tributing.
Now the money has begun to
trickle in again, however, and the
board has decided it can afford
to resumec üblication—but on a
monthly basis, instead of weekly

that dry strategy now is to battle
for temperance, rather ‘than abol
ition of liguor, which even many
drys view as hopeless, for the
time being.
The “Clipsheet” presents a long
review of drinking at football
games, graphically and satirically
describing the practice, surveying
conditions at' various universities,
and recommending steps toward
remedy.
Football game drinking has
proved conclusively, one learns,
“that a drunken woman can make
a bigger fool of herself than any
drunken man.”
Also, spectators do more of the
drinking than students and the
problem is more serious in the
east than elsewhere, A
It is also reported that liquor
consumption is increasing rapidly
—and urged that consumption he
reduced.
