BETTER LOCK YOUR ST/BLE
DOOR-DO IT NOW
At the State Board of Health Labo
ratory two people are constantly busy
making typhoid vaccine. Thomaudß
upon thousands of ddses have already
been tested, bottled, labeled and care
fully stored away In a big refrigera
tor la readiness for the heavy de
mand during the summer months.
If only some genius could devise a
way of convincing the people that the
stable door .hould be locked before
the horse Is stolen, or likewise that
the prevention of disease should pre
cede rather than follow the appear
ance of the dlseuse! The time to pro
tect yourself against typhoid fever Is
NOW. It Is very probable, Mr.
Reader, that you are already making
plans of some kind for your summer
vacation —a boating trip, a camp, a
motor trip or perhaps a few week-end
jaunts to visit friends, or perhaps your
business requires that you travel more
or less constantly. But, whether you
travel or stay at home this summer,
please keep in mind that typhoid fe
ver increases both among travelers
and stay-at-homes during the hot
summer months. Also remember that
once you get a dose of typhoid infec
tion, there Is no way to prevent you
from having typhoid fever. One out
of every ten cases of typhoid fever
Is fatal —if you don’t believe it. ask
Uncle Sam at Washington—and the
other nine not only flirt with death,
but spend several weeks or months
staring at the celling, wondering
where the money is coming from to
pay the doctor's bills and other heavy
expenses.
Speaking of expense, typhoid vac
cine costs nothing, for the State
Board of Health supplies it free to the
people of Georgia. The only expense
Is the fee of your doctor. If you live
In a county or city where there Is a
health department, your health officer
will vaccinate you free of charge.
If you will attend to this little mat
ter now and get it over with, you can
then face the danger of summer ty
phoid Infection without any appre
hensions.
THE TOLL OF THE MOSQUITO
We are now on the eve of that pe
riod of the year when the Anophellne
(malaria) mosquito begins to take Its
toll.
The toll of the mosquito may be re
garded from three aspects: first, the
annoyance, suffering and death caused
by disease it transmits; second, the
economic loss resulting from disease in
expenditures for medical aid, nursing
and medicines and loss of time and
productive energy; and, third, the eco
nomic loss it occasions by retarding
development of, and depressing prop
erty values in sections where It
abounds.
Apart from the annoyance and dis
comfort It causes It is solely responsi
ble for malaria, yellow fever, and
dengue. Of these diseases malaria
Is the most prevalent and serious in
the Southern States,
Malaria is transmitted from the sick
to the well only through the b’te of
the female Anophellne mosquito.
There are many erroneous Ideas as to
the cause of malaria. Malaria is never
caused by drinking bad water, eating
improper food, or various other things
to which it is i opularly attributed.
Methods of Control.
Drainage: Wherever possible all
ponds should be drained or filled,
ditches should be cut as straight as
possible, and should have clean-cut
sloping sides and narrow bottoms. AH
street ditches should be cleaned and
graded. Itoad and railroad culverts
often become stopped and provide
pools of water 'or mosquito produc
tion; such culverts should be period
ically cleaned, and properly raised
or lowered to grade when necessary.
Oiling: Oiling is often necessary
where other methods cannot be ap
plied. Oiling may be applied In the
following ways: It may be applied
through a drip can from which oil
slowly drips upon the surface of the
water; or it may be applied with an
oil sprayer which is carried on the
back and is worked with a lever which
pumps the oil through a hose and noz
zle in the form of a spray.
Various proportions of different oils,
such as crude oil and kerosene, may be
used. Crude oil and kerosene may be
mixed with sawdust ant) the sawdust
sprinkled on the water. The methods
of applying oil are varied and the ex
isting conditions determine the most
effective method to be used
SPRING FFVER
There is no such disease as “spring
fevqr.” Springtime is the season of
resurrection; nature that has beendor
mant all during the cold weather gets
new life. With all the beauty of spring
comes also the rejuvenation of the
bacteria, germs or microbes that bring
disease. It is therefore evident that
springtime is a time to go on the
war path and fight for health. Flies
and mosquitoes must be controlled ;
sanitation must be Improved. Ty
phoid fever can be largely controlled
by vaccination; the State Hoard of
Health furnishes the vaccine free. i
“Summer complaint” is a term used
to describe a condition that conies
with hot wcath<T and its consequent
flies and food contamination. Spoiled
food, especially contaminated mi'.k and
water, are largely responsible for this
AUTO INVENTED IN 1763,
EMORY PROFESSOR SAYS
IN INTERESTING ARTICLE
Automobiles were limited to speeds
lof four miles per hour in the coun
try and two miles in cities and
towns, and required to send a run
ner ahead waving a red flag, un
der the first regulatory act passed
by England in 1865. This surprising
| information is contained in an arti
; cile on automobile taxation written
by Professor James W. Martin, of
the Emory National Tax Associa
tion Bulletin.
Professor Martin has prepared a
series of articles on the general sub
ject, “The Motor Vehicle Registra
tion License,” which are appear-'
ing in the April, May and June is
sues of the Bulletin. The first parti
of the series is devoted to the early
history of automobiles and attempts
to regulate them, and it is shown
that automobiles that would run
jWere invented in 1763, nearly 20
j years before Watt perfected his
steam engine.
I Professor Mhrtin claims that
horsepower, though used as the ba
sis of graduating motor vehicle li
censes in most states, is wholly un
sartisfactory, and the progressive
states are discarding it. He also as
serts that many states are discrimin
ating against the light vehicle equip
ped with pneumatic tires, in favor
of the heavy ones fitted with solid
rubber or metal tires, that are harder

At the evening service Sunday of

more than $300.00 van made up by
the large congregation as a gift to
Rqv. J. S. Thrailkill, who is doing

mons have stirred the people of the
community to a quickening in reli

Mr. Thrailkill thankfully declined ac
ceptance of the sum for himself and
xpressed the wish that it be appro
priated to the Southern Methodism

Preachers, which was done.
Subscriptions to the fund were
made while Rev. Th’-ailkill had re
tired to the pastor's study just pre
ceding his sermon and were made in
response to the call of Steward Carl
Clements. In declining acceptance
for himself the minister said that he

his charge at Zebulon and that he
did not need it for his comfort, but
nevertheless he was highly appreci
ative of the manifested spirit of the
donors.—'Calhoun County Courier.
PLAN TO SELL STOCKINGS
BY THREES IN THE FUTURE
Newspaper advertisements of wo
men’s wear reveal anew fad which
promises a golden harvest to the
stocking industry. The idea is to
abandon the sale of socks and stock
ings by the pair and to dispose of
them by thi*ees, the point being
made that a “spare” in hosiery is
as necessary a piece of the ward
robe equipment as is <i spare tire
for the automobile. The advertise
ments dwell equally on the fact that
with a spare stocking a lady need
I not worry about runs, or mishaps,
I but can count on getting twice the
j wear out of every three that she
got out of a pair in the past.
MORE RELIEF FUNDS NEEDED
More funds than the $5,000,000
I aleardy asked on behalf of the Red
I Cross will be needed for Mississippi
[ flood sufferers, in the opinion of
President Coolidge, but they will
have to come from the American
public, since he does not believe a
special session of congress to con
sider flood control and relief legis
ation is expedient at this time.
It has been disclosed at the White
House that the President sees no
way by which the treasury can pro
vide money for relief work, and in
face of this barrier he wishes the
public to clearly understand that the
Red Cross is depending solely on its
contributions to carry on the work
of succor and rehabilitation.

QUICK AND EASY WAY TO
WASH FEATHERS
When 1 had some pillows to wash,
and wasn’t very enthusiastic over
the job, I found this to be a very
easy and clean way: First I ripped
I a few stitches in the seam and let
| the faucet run into the pillow tick
and wet the feathers thoroughly.
When they were all wet, I ripped
enough of the seam to allow me to
put my hand in and take all the wet
feathers out and turn the case in
j side out. I washed the feathers in
warm suds and rinsed them, then
washed and rinsed the tick, turned
it back right side out, and put the
feathers back after squeezing as
much water out as possible, then
closed up the hole, and hung out to
dry. If a sunny or windy day is
chosen, they will soon dry. I usuaHy
leave them out in the sun a couple
of days, turning frequently and tak
ing in at night. It is surprising how
quickly and easily it can be done. No
feathers flying or muss to clean up.
