Resolutions of Respect

Brothers of Carrollton Lodge, No.
‘ 96,1. O.O. F.:
We, your committee appointed to
draft suitable resolutions of sympa
thy and respect on the death of Mrs.
Martha J. Roop, beg to submit the
following: ^
Be it Resolved, That it is with
intense earnestness of regret that
we are called on to chronicle the
death of this noble Christian wom
an, and more especially as she
was the beloved wife of our esteem
ed and worthy brother, Rev. W. W.
Roop.
Mrs. Roop jvas born in Henry
county, Georgia, in 1845, and de
parted this life July 18th, 1913, at
the age oi sixty-eight years.
Mrs. Roop was admired and loved
by all for her many lovable Chris
tian virtues, by all who knew her.
She had been a devoted, loyal mem
ber of the Missionary Baptist church
for a period of forty-six years, hav
ing joined Bethesda church at about
twenty years of age, since which
time she has ever been a zealous,
faithful, consecrated worker in the
cause of our Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ. She was a tender, loving
wife and devoted mother.
Be it Resolved, That the deepest,
tenderest, heartfelt sympathy of this
entire Brotherhood goes out to our
beloved brother, Rev. W. W. Roop,
in this, his saddest hour of bereave
ment, knowing that the God of our
salvation, in whom, our brother has
ever placed an abiding faith, will
soothe his sad, aching heart with
the tenderest pity emanating from
His eternal love for those who be
lieve on Him.
Be it further Resolved, That these
resolutions be adopted, spread upon
the minutes of this Lodge, published
in our city papers, and copies trans
mitted to our beloved brother and
his daughter, Mrs. Josie Copeland,
of Bremen, Ga.
Respectfully submitted,
J. H. Barron, Ch’m.,

Committee.
Card of Thanks
To the many friends who so kindly
extended services during the illness,
death and burial of our wife and
mother we extend our heartfelt
thanks. When the all-wise Father
sees fit for them to bear this sad
bereavement, may they, too, have
such friends, and may God’s bless
ing ever attend them is the prayers
of Geo. W. Holloway,

lions of Respect
To the Noble Grand, Officers and
Brothers of Carrollton Lodge, No.
69,1. O. O. F.:
We, your committee appointed to
draft resolutions of sympathy and
respect on the death of Miss Dora
McKinley, beg to submit the follow
ing:
Miss Dora McKinley, the daugh
ter of our beloved brother, E. D. Mc
Kinley and his loving wife, Mrs. E.
D. McKinley, was born September
1st, 1897, and departed this life
July 24th, 1913, at the tender age
of 16 years. It appears seemingly
hard that our worthy brother and
his good family should be deprived
of the pleasures derived from this
devoted and affectionate daughter,
ju3t at the age when she was the
most inteiesting and attractive, but
God doeth all things well, and in
His infinite wisdom, saw proper to
transplant one of the flowers of this
family to that great conservatory of
Heaven where it will ever be more
tenderly cared for and bloom and
blossom with beauty and fragrance
throughout the endless ages of eter
nity. Her pure Christian soul has
been borne by angels’ wings to the
Great White Throne of God to hear
that welcome plaudit, “Well done,
good and faithful servant enter into
the joys of thy Lord. We under
stand that Dora was a regular at
tendant at her church and Sunday
School, and that there she would be
missed, and her seat vacant forever.
We understand that her last words
were, “I am so happy. I am going
to rest.” These words are such a
sweet consolation to her father and
his family, assuring them that they
have an angel in Heaven.
Resolved, That our tenderest sym
pathy go out to this worthy and be
loved brother and his family in their
sore bereavement. May the God of
mercies heal their broken hearts.
Resolved further, That these res
olutions be adopted, spread upon
the minutes of this, Lodge, and a
copy transmitted to the family of
our worthy brother; also published
in the city papers.
Respectfully submitted,
J. H. Barron,
E. E. Bazemore,

TONSIL OKS
SMI CMS
Georgia Health Board Describes Ter
rible Results of Disease if Not
Properly Treated.
Atlanta, Ga.—If one of your chil
dren is backward in Its studies or
sickly looking, get a physician to look
at Ub tonsils at once, is the advice
given by the Georgia State Board of
Health. The whole trouble may be
there. A chronic or acute disease of
the tonsils Is a serious and dangerous
thing.
The enlarged tonsils may permanent
ly stunt the child's physical growth
and retard its mental development.
The State Board of Health urges pa
rents whose children are so suffering,
to have them examined and operated
on, If necessary, by a skilled physi
cian or surgeon. Operations In near
ly all cases result In complete cures,
while failure to operate may leave an
otherwise normal child stupid and
sickly through life.
Many a boy or girl has been put
down as lazy and ‘'good-for-nothing,"
and has been unjustly punished at
home and at school, when the real
trouble was nothing but enlarged ton
sils.
Other children suffering in the same
way have sometimes been considered
half-witted because of the open-hang
ing mouth And silly expression, which
often results from the obstructed pass
ages in the throat and nose—their
whole life marred for the lack of a
comparatively simple operation. The
parent who falls to Inquire into such
symptoms and to have the child prop
erly treated, Is guilty of neglect that
Is almost criminal.
Is a Contagious Disease.
The second most important thing
for the public to realize about tonsili-
tls, says the Board, Is the fact that
acute tonsllitls Is contagious, and that
patients suffering from it should be
isolated and some precautions taken
to prevent Its spread, as are done in
case of other contagious diseases. One
case of acute tonsllitls may not justi
fy an operation. It is in chronic cases
or In cases where the acute form re
curs frequently, that operations are
absolutely necessary.
In addition to the acute and chronic,
there Is also a third common form of
the disease, called suppurative tonsi-
litis or quinsy.
Acute tonsllitls frequently comes on
rather suddenly. Children and young
adults are most susceptible. The pa
tient may first complain of sore throat
with a feeling of swelling In the throat,
or may first feel chilly or even have
a decided chill, soon followed by ach
ing of the limbs and back and violent
headache. These symptoms may be so
severe that the patient may feel ilka
he Is going to have a very serious ill
ness. The temperature rapidly risen
and may reach 103 degrees to 105 de
grees within a very few hours. Th®
odor of the patient’s breath Is very
foul, and unless the room Is well ven
tilated the odor may fill the room. An
examination of the .throat shows tha
tonsils and neighboring tissues to ba
swollen and congested. The tonsils
may be so greatly swollen as to touch'
each other, and they may be covered
by a grayish substance that may re
semble the membrane which la pres
ent In cases of diphtheria. The glands
in the neck usually become swollen
and painful, and the neck muscles feel
sore and stiff.
Symptoms of Quinsy.
In suppurative tonsllitls, or quinsy,'
the* local symptoms in the throat causa
the greatest amount of distress, al
though the general symptoms named
above may also be present. In quinsy,
pus forms in and around the tonsil.
Usually only one tonsil is affected. It
may become greatly swollen and seri
ously interfere with the patient’s
breathing and his ability to swallow.
The patient opens his mouth with con
siderable difficulty as every movement
of the jaw causes great pain. In quin
sy the tonsil is seldom covered by the
membrane as in the follicular form
or as In diphtheria. Instead the tonsil
is usually smooth and shining In ap
pearance.
In acute tonsllitls and in quinsy a
bacteriological examination should be
made of the throat and the patient
kept in isolation, until it is determin
ed whether or not the Inflammation Is
caused by the germ of diphtheria. The
State Board of Health’s laboratories
will make these examinations free of
charge upon request. -
In the chronic form of tonBllltis,
there is no danger of spreading the
disease, but it Is this form which per
manently injures the health and mind
of the patient. Children are the most
frequent sufferers. The tonsils some
times become so large that they touch
each othef 1 ; there Is usually nasal ca
tarrh, sometimes earache and deaf
ness: the child usually breathes with
Its mouth open. This not only gives
the child a silly expression, but la
harmful because air taken through th®
mouth instead of the nose Is not prop
erly sifted of dust and germs. Tha
nose fails to develop and its small
ness adds to the stupid expression oC
the unfortunate child. As the result
of the difficulty In breathing,
child’s growth is stunted and the chest
often becomes deformed. Such un
fortunates are apt to catch any other
contagious diseases which are about.
They are especially liable to tubercu
losis and diphtheria. There Is, no pos
sible excuse for letting a child con
tinue to suffer such dreadful results,
for an operation la usually attended
with no danger and children improve
rapidly to an absolutely surprising d®-
gree after thl* 1* dong,
