CONCERNING THE
RED CROSS WORK
The Money Loss Entailed by Sickness.
Take Precautions to Safeguard
Your Health.
In taking any precautions to safe
guard health it is well to consider the
actual value of health as compared to
the loss entailed by sickness. This is
quite possible to do because careful es
timates have been made of the economic
value of the individual to the state;
this valuation begins at the estimate
of $90.00 at birth to the maximum of
$4100.00 at the age of thirty years
which is considered the age of the
greatest producing power. Therefore,
In any effort to preserve public health
we are, at the same time, preserving
public wealth and when we are ex
pending public money for such health
essentials as public health nurse we are
in reality making an economic invest
ment which will bear interest for the
state.
Our local Red Cross Chapter may
not have thought of the matter in this
way at all but it is one phase of the
situation wich it is well to consider.
Public heath nursing means, as its
name implies not nursing for sickness
but nursing to preserve health, and this
is exactly in line with the most mod
ern ideas of preventive medicine.
It is not the loss of individuals alone
which entails a drain on the public
resources but, prolonged or frequent
ly recurrent illness has identically the
same effect in an even greater degree.
For instance for every death that oc
curs two persons are continually ill,
hence the saving of three lives means
that we have prevented six cases of
chikraic illness; if we estimate these
cases at the low cost of SI.OO a day
medical attendance we will see that
the saving to the nation is very great
and the saving to a given community
is great in the same proportion.
This is a practical statement of act
ual facts, and apart from all personal
Teasons of sentiment, affection, or hu
man appeal, it would seem that invest
ing in health Is a good economic meas
ure.
We can and will, at a later day give
some figures as to the cost of different
diseases, but this group consideration
of the money loss from general sick
ness is well worth our careful atten
tion.

The Oldest National Bank in 4 Adjoining Counties
Winder National Bank
and
Its Conservative Management
IN SELECTING a bank the average depositor natural
ly expects ample resources to take care of his require
ments, integrity, full compliance with the banking laws,
security, accuracy, and the many other things that go
to make up the stock in trade of a bank. But he posi
tively demands CONSERVATIVE MANAGEMENT.
PROGRESSIVENESS TEMPERED BY CONSERVA
TISM upon the part of the management has played an
important part in the development of the Winder Na
tional Bank from its modest beginning in 1899 with
$15,000 capital stock to its present position among the
representative banks of the country, with a capital of
Two Hundred Thousand Dollars and a surplus of One
Hundred and Fifteen Thousand Dollars.
This remarkable record of achievement shows a con
sistent development over a period of more than 22 years
During this time the Winder National Bank has been
MODEST IN TIMES OF PROSPERITY and INVUL
NERABLE IN TIMES OF STRESS, and each period
has had a share in teaching the management of the
bank the value of both CONSERVATISM and PRO
GRESSIVENESS, which is reflected in steady growth
and for which we are duly grateful.
