WORTH COUNTYS
EXAMPLE.
Possibly no county in Georgia has
made a record for itself which is more
worthy of emulation than have the
Board of Education, the Board of
Health, and the farm demonstration
agent for the progressive county of
Worth.
Last fall when the county schools
opened, the farm demonstration agent
made arrangements to furnish a pig
to each school where the teachers and
children would look after the pig and
feed it the scraps left from their
lunches. These pigs of- course were
well cared for, and when the board
of health began operating April 2nd,
and put a full time commissioner in
charge, he immediately began to plan
for better sanitary conditions at the
schools. Knowing that the old sur
face closets, or the lack of closet
facilities, are conditions productive of
soil pollution and the dissemination
of typhoid fever, dysentery and hook
worm disease, Dr. Taylor (the health
commissioner) began to plan for the
Investment of the money incident to
the sale of the school pigs, in sani
tary privies for .he schools. The
board of education concurred in this
idea, and so a day was appointed for
the auctioning of these pigs. Know
ing the investment would be product
ive of handsome dividends these pigs
brought from $35.00 to $400.00 each.
It is to be hoped that many other
counties in the state will follow the
lead of their sister Worth.
Here is a concrete example of the
results of co-operation on the part of
the people with the health depart
ment: Worth county is one of the lat
est counties to put the Ellis Health
Law into effect; and we can see by
the above, that the board of educa
tion, the farm demonstration agent,
the county commissioners, the school
trustees, the school teachers and the
parents of the school children are in
hearty accord with the work which
the Worth County Board of Health is
doing. To the health officers, possi
bly there is no word which is more
sublime than “Co-operation.” If he ie
to fight against the army of flies, if
he is to put to route the hoards of
typhoid fever, if he is to destroy the
forces of venereal disease, if he is
to continue his fight until the world
has been made safe for civilization,
until men, women and children an
provided with good, strong, healthy
bodies in which to live, and be hap
py; he must receive the fullest sup
port and co-operation of the poor as
well as the rich, the small as well as
the great, the black at well as the
white.
Possibly there is no evidence of co
operation which is more convincing
than that manifest- in W orth County

CITIES OF U. S.
TO BE GRADED
You are interested.
We have eight cities in Georgia that
have more than ten thousand inhab
itants, and therefore come under th 6
new method of grading that has been
instituted by the United States Pub
lic Health Service. This grading is
done on the Venereal control reme
dies that the State has in operation.
A possible thousand points can be
made, and to make it fair for the
cities four gradings, three months
apart, will be made. The grading will
be grouped under four headings: Med
ical measures, including free clinic,
and will count 300 points. Education
al measures, books, picture shows, etc.,
300 points. Law enforcement meas
ures will be subdivided under 8 heads.
The enforcement of law 100 points,
but altogether 300 points.
Team work makes the last heading
and counts 100 points.
These gradings fro the 710 cities
of our Union are to be made at reg
ular intervales to allow all to first
find out what they are to do, and
second, after knowing, they are put
into operation.
How will Georgia stand a year
hence? We surely trust that we will
.lead all the rest. We can if you will
do you part, and every other man and
woman does his and her part.

The sage observation that “It's nice

to lie in bed” is no longer a shameful
confession of laziness. The British
ministry of munitions investigating
