Cleveland, a city of more than half
million, eradicated the flies. On the
Panama Canal strip, an erstwhile
pest hole, there are no flies, mosqui
toec or fever. It is easier to rid Grif
fin of flics, mosquitoes and fever than
it was either of these places.
"• <
Flies, mosquitoes and fever know
no latitude, longitude nor altitude.
We r have seen them all in Manitoba,
Coloradc, the middle west, the tropi

they all succumb to clean methods.
Let’r clean up Griffin.
* Disease is inexcusable in a city like
Griffin. We boast of our enlightened

the uig issue in this municipal cam
paign. Will Mayor Smith .guarantee
to clean np the city, clean it as elean
as an army camp, if re-elected? If
not who will run for mayor on a
clean-up campaign?

Home Paper Stands With Public School
For Betterment of Our American Life
IT has beefi well said that the great PUBLIC- SCHOOL SYS
TEM is the BACKBONE of the AMERICAN NATION.
Something else can be said just as truly. It is this: The
BACKBONE of the PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM is the
AMERICAN WOMAN.
And that backbone has often been strained to the BREAK
ING POINT.
Our woman teachers here and all over the land are spending
the best years of their lives for the young. They are spending
these best years very often under TRYING
poor pay, overcrowded classrooms, insanitary quarters, curtailed
facilities, small thanks.
The backbone must be strong, but not strained.
