GEORGIA. OCT. 15, 1926. as winter approaches let us see to !t that our homes and offices have the proper ventilation and sunlight; both are essential to proper health. If a thing is vital we cannot live without it. Therefore, if Georgia, ex pects to live, she must have reliable Vital Statistics.

Records of the causes of death it our midst must be made if we expect to safeguard the health of our dear one*. Records of births must be made it we expect to guarantee to our chil dren their legal rights. I Blindness in babies is preventable in a large measure.
