Tim To Chock Oa Canning Need*
The canning season is in full
swing, and that means that it's time
for housewives to check up and see
that their canning plans call for
enough canned food to take care of
family needs for the year.
Be certain that you have enough
quarts of vegetables, fruits, tomato
juice, meats, jellies, jams, marma
lades, and preserves for your family
during the winter season, before it
is too late to can them. Also, it
would be wise to put a few extra to
have in case relatives or friends drop
in for a visit.
The wise homemaker will know
from experience just what the fami
ly needs, and what they like during
the winter seasons. These needs
should be prepared for while the
vegetables and fruits are available.
Now, just before we are entering
the main vegetable canning season,
every housewife should check up on
her equipment to see that it is in
shape for use. There should be
plenty of clean, usable jars, along
with lids and rubbers.
CORRECT DEFECTS
This month and August is the
only time left to the parents in
which to prepare their children pro
perly for the beginning of school in
September. It is the duty of every
parent to know that his child is
physically fit to get the best from
his school.
A child who has defective vision,
defective hearing, breathing inter
fered with by adenoids and enlarged
tonsils, cannot be expected to make
a good scholar. A child who cannot
see cannot learn; a child who does
not hear distintcly will be confused
and not make proper grades; and a
child with infected tonsils will be
losing time from school continuously
throughout the term.
All of these defects can, in a
measure, be corrected; some of them
can be completely corrected. The
reasonable, sensible, and important
thing for the parent to do is to have
the child given a complete examina-
tion by a competent physician now,
so that all defects, especially those
above-mentioned, may have imme
diate attention.
In addition to correction of de
fects, the child should at once be
given the necessary immunizations
for the prevention of communicable
diseases, especially smallpox and
typhoid fever vaccination. The
young child has not been immunized
against this disease, after determin
ing this fact by a Schick test, he
should be administered either toxoid
or toxin-antitoxin, as preferred by
the attending physician.
It would be a wonderful accomp
lishment if in Georgia we could send
to the opening session of our schools
children with all defects corrected
and all immunizations against dis
ease given. It would save thousands
of dollars to the taxpayers of Geor
gia and would give the children an
equal opportunity with other chil
dren who are physically fit.
There is one other health measure
that we wish to urge at this time—
that the parents whose children are
going to school interest themselves
in the physical condition of the
school and its environment. The
school should be sanitary. It should
be properly heated, ventilated, and
lighted. There should be proper
sanitary drinking fountains and
toilets, and every other convenience
that it is possible to give to our
schoolhouses. Provision should be
made at every sehoolhouse for the
washing of hands of the children.
Many of our diseases are contracted
from dirty hands or by contact with
the excretion and secretions of the
carriers of disease.
The Georgia Department of Pub
lic Health wishes to appeal not only
to the parents, but to the commis
sioners of education, the trustees of
schools, and the teachers of our
State, to assist in a school health
program such as that briefly discuss
ed above. It is one that is both
simple and effective. Georgia’s
Health.
TOO NEW
The farmer walked into the office
of the director of the New York
World’s Fair.
“I understand,” he said, “that the
Wrold’s Fair people are ready to
buy any automobile made in 1916.”
The director nodded.
“That’s right,” he said. “Provid
ed, of course, that the car runs.
Does your car still run?”
The farmer shrugged.
“I’ll have to ask my son,” he ex
plained. “My wife and I always
use the old car! . .
ONE-TIME ADVERTISERS
(From The Rossville Open Gate)
'Tie said that advertising is a
great deal like eating. You cannot
eat one big meal and then expect to
go without eating for the next sev
eral weeks. Neither can you adver
tise successfully by using a medium
once and then dropping out of sight j
for the next three or four week*.
People forget easily in this fast mov- I
ing world. The following little
poem, we think, expressea very
thoroughly the point we would like
to convey:
There was a man who advertised
But once—a single time.
In spot obscu.' he placed his ad,
And paid for it a dime.
And just because it didn’t bring
Him customers by the score,
“All advertising is a fake,”
He said, or rather, swore.
He seemed to think one hammer tap
Would drive a nail clear in;
That from a bit of tiny thread,
A weaver tents could spin.
If he this reason bright applied
To eating, doubtless he
Would say a little bit would feed
Ten men a century.
Some day, tho, he will learn that
To make advertising pay,
He’ll have to add ads to his ad,
And advertise each day.
If you toot your little tooter and
then lay aside your horn, there’s not
a soul in ten short days will know
that you are born. The man who
gathers pumpkins is the man who
plows all day, and the man who
keeps it humming is the man who
makes it pay. The man who adver
tises with a short and sudden jerk,
is the man who blames the editor
because it will not work. The man
who gets the business takes a long
and steady pull, and keeps the local
paper from year to year quite full.
He plans his advertising in a care
ful, thoughtful way, and keeps at it
forever until he makes it pay. He
has faith in the future, can with
stand a sudden shock, for like the
man in Scripture, built his business
on a rock.
HONOR FOR BISHOP CANDLER
IS PLANNED AT “OLD SALEM”
Atlanta.—Bishop Warren A. Can
dler, who for fifty years has preach
ed the morning sermon at “Old
Salem” camp ground on the second
Sunday in August, this year will be
honored by four Protestant denomi
nations and the Salvation Army at
the opening services on August 14.
This year he will not preach, but
instead will be on the rostrum as the
central figure in a special service ar
ranged to honor his greatness as a
preacher and church statesman.
Dr. Bascom Anthony, of the South
Georgia Conference, will pay tribute
in behalf of the Methodists; Dr.
Louie D. Newton, of the Druid Hills
Baptist Church, in behalf of the
Baptists; Dean Raimundo De Ovies,
of St. Phillip’s Cathedral, in behalf
of Episcopalians, and Charles D.
Montgomery, layman of the Central
Presbyterian Church, in behalf of
the Presbyterians. Brigadier E. R.
Holz, of the Salvation Army, will
pay the tribute of that organization.
Salem Camp ground, which is near
Conyers, was established in 1828,
which makes it 110 years old this
year since, except for a break during
the War Between the States, and
during the last half century the
outstanding event each second Sun-
day in August has been Bishop Can
dler’s sermon; some of the greatest
of his career having been delivered
at the historic camp ground.
“The great affection in which
Bishop Candler is held throughout
this area, and the fact that special
honor is going to be paid him on
this occasion, we believe will bring
together the largest concourse of
people that has ever assembled on
this historic ground,” said Major
Robert J. Guinn, chairman of the
arrangements committee.
The meeting will start Tuesday,
August 9, and close Sunday, August
21. The first four days will be de
voted to young people’s classes, but
the climax will be the celebration
in the bishop’s honor.

THE FAMILY REUNION
(From Dawson News)
Although many old-time practices
have gone the way of the hitching
post, the arc light and the old-fash
ioned medicine show, there still re
main certain cherished American
customs that persist in spite of a
changing world. Science and inven
tion and the innovation of new
things to outmode the old have fail
ed dismally to obliterate some of
these.
Chief among these is the family
reunion which is generally held at
“the old home place.” If anything,
automobiles and paved roads are
making it easier to hold family get
togethers, and now it is not uncom
mon for widely separated members
of a family to come together at some
times during the year and renew ties
of kinship. From distant cities, where
sons and daughters, nieces and
nephews, grandsons and grand
daughters have gone to seek a livli
hood, come kinsmen to the scene of
earlier days, there to mix and mingle
with loved ones, there to partake of
some old-fashioned cooking which
comes out of a kitchen that does not
know a can opener.
