Atlanta, Ga., July 1.—The terrible responsibility of parents who are suf fering from some constitutional dis ease and yet dare to bring children into the world, is strikingly set forth in a statement just issued by the Georgia State Board of Health, ex plaining in plain words the influence of heredity on infant mortality. People who refuse to face these facts, says the Board of Health, are deliberately laying both themselves and their offspring open to untold mis ery and suffering. Parents afflicted with tuberculosis, hear disease, syphi lis, kidney disease, epilepsy or other serious constitutional diseases, cannot expect to produce a child with normal resistance to disease and unfavorable environment, any more than a dis eased plant can be expected to pro duce a perfect flower. Of all hereditary diseases, syphilis undoubtedly the one which works the greatest havoc. The child may never come into the world alive at all, if it does, it may be hopelessly af flicted. Rickets, monsters .blindness, hydrocephalus, insanity, are only a few of the evils that many result. A healthy, normal child can be pro duced only by health normal parents. Even then it is extremely necessary that prior to the birth of the infant the mother be freed as much n EVERYBODY’S DOING IT :S0 IS THE: ATHENS VULCANIZING CO.

DR. DEW PAYS HIGH TRIBUTE TO MISS MILLIE RUTHERFORD scarlet fever, chicken-pox, whooping cough, mumps, diptheria, etc., should be isolated, quarantined and attended by a competent physician. Sanitary Precautions. A light, airy upstairs room is pre ferable. If possible, the bed should n iron one. The single, firm r .at- tress should be entirely covered with rubber sheet or oil cloth, and on top of this the sheets, blankets and coun terpane should be spread. Quilts should not be used. The pillow should also have a rubber or oil cloth coveming under the slip. Carpets, pic tures, and all unnecessary furniture should be removed. All clothing that goes from the room should be soaked in a disinfecting solution before it is sent out to be washed. Your physi cian will tell you how. All other san itary precautions should be taken, such as separate dishes for the sole use of the patient. All dishcharges must be thoroughly disinfected bo- fore they are taken from the room. The nurse and physician should be the only persons allowed in the room, and they should cover their clothing and hair with washable cap and gown, Hands should be washed and disinfect ed. When the child recovers, it should be bathed, disinfected, wrapped in a sheet wet with disinfecting solution and carried into an adjoining room to be dressed. In event of death, the body should be disinfected, sealed in a coffin and given private burial as soon as possible. The room should be sealed up, with paper pasted over fireplace, cracks, keyhole, etc. Hang up bedclothes; j open drawers. Place tub containing water in center of room. Place pan in water. In pan put crystals of potaassium permanganate and over this quickly pour formaldehyde out of larger mouthed vessel. Leave room immediately. Keep it locked and sealed up 12 to 24 hours. * Against such diseases as small-pox diphtheria, lockjaw, meningitis, ty phoid fever and hydrophobia the State Board of Health furnishes free of cost a vaccine or serum for their prevention; and the Board strongly advises their use where circumstances indicate the need. TALLULAH FALLS AND RABUN GAP In his sermon to unmarried wom en on Friday night Dr. Dew insisted that every young woman should fit herself by the highest training and culture to make the most out of life.

Dorothea Dix, pioneer of reform Important of Proper Feeding, j ln pris ' But even after the healthy child Clairvoyant and Scientific Palmist has opened its little eyes to the shine, the responsibility of the par ents is equally great. No hothouse plant is more susceptible to unfavor able influence than a newborn child Proper food, fresh air, bathing and proper clothing, are the chief essen tials. Improper feeding is the greatest single cause of infant mortality. For information concerning the proper feeding of infants, the Georgia State Board of Health has issued a circular, No. 12, entitled ‘Keep Baby Well Dur ing the Summer,” which may be had for the asking. Above all, says the Board of Health, do not get the erroneous idea that there are some diseases of childhood which the child is bound to have, and which are so trivial that the sooner they are over with the better. This is altogether wrong. Practically all the diseases of childhood can lead to serious complications and permanent weakness or death. Children should never be exposed to contageous ail ments, if it can possibly be avoided, and those suffering from measles, MILD PATTERNS Address Pattern Dept, The Athens Herald 964s 9645—A Splendid Style for the Growing Miss—Girls Dress With or Without Added Yoke Portions.

Atlanta, Ga., July 1.—The aston ishment expressed ever the country at the haste with which the Atlanta Clearing House Association endorsed the Wilson currency reform measure the daj after it was announced, will probably subside in the face of an interesting explanation. Bankers in other cities wondered that Atlanta should endorse the measure before studying it. The answer was that Atlanta already knew all about it. “We endorsed it immediately,” said a leading member on the clear ing house association today, “because it embodies exactly the same princi ples in accordance with whi;h we is sued our clearing house certificates in 1907. We had tried out the plan, and we already knew its merits,” Miss Mary Bartelme is the assist ant to tile judge of the juvenile court for delinquent girls of Chicago.
