CARROLLTON 4 1
THURSDAY, OCTOBER I tC
Meeting of Medical Society.
Viewed from any standpoint, the
meeting last Tuesday in Greenville
of the Fourth District Medical Asso
ciation, was in every way a most
successful one. Professionally it
was exceedingly interesting aud in
structive, and socially very enter
taining and enjoyable.
From the first, beginning with the
address of welcome so nicely pre
sented by Dr. P. W. Fitts, to the
conclusion of the session late in the
afternoon, there was a succession of
excellent papers on various medical
subjects read and discussed by the
members and physicians present.
In the afternoon Dr. F. P. Norman,
of Greenville, presented a paper on
“The relation of the physician to the
community in which he lives,"
which showed the doctor entertains
very clever ideas of the relationship
that should exist. This was followed
by a paper from Dr. H. G. Goodwyn,
of Carroll county, on “Scarlet Fever,”
which was ably presented and dis
cussed by several members. Next
came a paper by Dr. H. W. Terrell,
of LaGrange, on “Hygiene in our
Public Schools,” which was well re
ceived and indicated that the doc
tor’s advanced views and ideas were
intelligent and up-to-date. The
morning session was concluded with
a very interesting talk by Dr. Fort,
of Atlanta, on the “Hook Worm.”
The doctor is doing a great service
for the state and humanity by his
study and investigation of this dis
ease. He showed very plainly the
great amount of damage done the
health of children, especially among
the schools and factories, and how
much education and labors, were
hindered by its alarming prevalence.
If the morning session was inter
esting, the one in the afternoon was
still more entertaing and instruct
ive, it having been devoted entirely
to the discussion of Pellagra. The
subject was introduced by a paper
read by Dr. E. B. Terrell, who frankly
disclaimed any definite knowledge
as to the cause of the disease, stat
ing that of the many theories Ad
vanced none had been conclusively
established by scientific proof and
all stood discredited for lack of poa-

...South Not Affected by Defeat
of Bill
Asserting that the defeat of his
pet measure, the reciprocity b,ll, by
the voters of Canada is only another
tack in the political coffin of Presi
dent Taft, Congressman Charles G.
Edwards yesterday gave his views
on the effects which will be felt as
a result of the bill.
“President Taft vetoed many im
portant tariff bills at the last session
of congress,” said Congressman Ed
wards. “He called the extra session
for the purpose of having passed a
reciprocity bill. He could not get
action on the bill by a republican
congress, and it remained for a demo
cratic house to pass the measure,
feeling that reciprocity between this
country and Canada would at least
remove the top row of bricks from
the wall of protection.
‘The democrats passed a free list
bill, which would have greatly bene
fited the farmers of the country.
President Taft vetoed that bill. It
now remains for the people of the
country to exercise their veto power.
They will do it in the campaign of
1912. at which time they will put
their veto upon that republican bill
known as the “Hon. Bill Taft."
“From present indications there is
not the slightest doubt in my mind
that the next congress will be dem
ocratic, and the democratic party
will elect the next president. The
passage of th^ reciprocity and free
list bills would have done much to
reduce the high cost Of living. It is
unfortunate that the people of Can
ada would see fit to defeat the bill.
At the next congress, however, a
fiee list bill will be passed which
will do much to reduce the high
cos' of living.
“It may be that Champ CLrk’s
unfortunate utterances regarding
at njxation, whether made deliber
ately or in jest, may have had
great deal to do with the defeat of
the reciprocity bill. One thing is
certain, however, and that is that
the defeat of the bill is but another
tack in the political coffin of Presi
dent Taft.”—Columbus Enquirer-
Sun.

This Girl flirts With Death
PILES
get immediate relief from
Dr Shooo s Magic Ointment
For utter recklessness in the face
of danger and for nerve that passes
all understanding Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers have at last brought
forth an act that establishes a new
record. When the big circus comes
to Carrollton on Thursday, October
12, the morbid minded will be given
an opportunity of seeing a young
French woman dash down a steep
incline in an automobile, the ma
chine and rider leaping high in air
and then after accomplishing ttoo
complete somersaults in space, land
ing with terrific impact on a spring
platform fifty feet away.
It is the first time in the history
of thrillers that a double mid-air
somersault has been achieved,
though other circus have advertised
a one and one-half somersault act
as a double revolution. Here for
the first lime is the original and
genuine act which set France wild
last year. Description of the act
defies the powers of English. It is
a briei moment of exquisite sus
pense that pinches the hearts and
whitens the faces of spectators. The
relief of the audience when the act
is accomplished in safety is express
ed in shouts of applause and the
waving of handkerchiefs.
This circus is now supreme in
size and strength. It has gathered
together the best talent of the
.world’s arenas, with careful regard
for what is sensational and novel
In all the history of the show busi
ness not one act has been seen in
America that will compare with
that of the Ty-Bell Human Butter
flies, Capt. Webb’s riding, juggling
and musical seals, the Runyon fam
ily of aerialists, the Pajara family
of Gypsy riders, the Hines-Kimball
troupe of acrobats, Prof. Taylor’i
English monkey circus and the Ar-
ensen troupe of gymnasts.
The street parade is the most
costly pageant ever devised for cir
cus purposes. The equipment was
built last winter in the foreign work
shops of the show near Liverpool
England, at a cost of $1,000,000.
There is not an old feature in it and
it is three miles long. The menag
erie, too, has been reconstructed on
original plans. It is an open library
of natural history and practically
complete zoological exposition.
The two performances to be given
in Carrollton will be identical with
those presented in all the large cit
ies. New York City endorses this
circus. It takes , a proprietory in
terest in it. Its metropolitan home
is in the Madison Square Garden
and its home offices are located in
that city. In fact, it is the pride of
the American metropolis. It is
there considered the most popular,
the biggest and best circus in the
world.
itive evidence—that they were the
ories only and not facts/ He stated,
however, that the mitigating and
merciful providence connected with
the disease, was that it was not con
tagious nor transmissable by hered
ity. This, he said, the public should
realize, as it might in some degree
lessen the prevailing alarm. His
paper was followed by another from
Dr. Niles, and this by a most in
structive talk by Dr. Roy Harris,
both of Atlanta; and both advocat
ing the corn theory of the disease.
Dr Harris is the able secretary of
the State Board of Health and has
given special study to the subject.
He is very positive in his conviction
that the eating of corn bread, the
meal having been made from spoiled
grain shipped from the west, is the
cause of Pellagra. His presentation
of the theory was very convincing
to those present. At the conclusion
of the meeting many left wondering
how they would henceforth eat their
beans and “greens" without corn
bread.
The convention was entertained
at the Kropp House by the Meri
wether County Medical Association
and the dinner which was a very
elaborate one, served in courses.
The next meeting of the Associa
tion will convene at Columbus in
February, and will meet annually
in August at Warm Springs.—Meri
wether Vindicator.
