Strictly Business Proposition
It is a true statement, “health is
wealth.” The statement does not j
need argument. How people can af- j
ford to let their capital stock be
slowly absorbed and finally awake to
find themselves bankrupt is passing
strange. Good business men will not
do so where finances are involved,
they will look carefully after their
monthly, weekly and daily statements;
they will keep in close touch with
the buying and selling ends; they will
see that the credit man does his part
and that the bills are promptly paid
or know the reason why. Yet, it is
passing strange that these same men,
and in fact, all men and women, neg¬
lect the greatest single asset in their
business. It is strange that men of
intelligence, men of common da^ sense,
men of judgment, will for a neg¬
lect their bodies and allow disease to
gradually grow and undermine their
physical being. All business must and
does depend upon the people; without
the people there would be no business.
There would be no sound business
without some healthy people. If the
country, the men and women who
make up the world, are in poor health,
general business must suffer just that
much. If they are not well enough
to produce normally all things that
go towards this world’s needs, then
there must needs be a lack. If any
part of a community is sick, not only
the one who is sick is affected, but
his neighbors are hot in as good
shape as they would be if he were
well. If in the course of business
someone fails to meet his obligations
and his creditor has to take this in¬
dividual loss, he subtracts just that
much from the balance of profit. It
is just so if one, whether he be a
producer or not, subtracts from the
health of the community; the profit
as a whole has been lowered.
The Individual should have at least
one complete examination a year, and
he should scrupulously observe the or¬
ders of his physician. The community
needs constant care for the reason
that it is made up of many individuals.
The public health is the most essen¬
tial of all things to the progress of
the people, the community, the coun¬
ty, the state, the nation, it matters not
what it costs in money; it cannot be
estimated in dollars and cents, yet it
can be cheaply bought.
A full-time health officer under the
Ellis Health Law can be employed at
a most reasonable figure. The health
unit can be made extensive or limited
as you wish, but in any size it is
well worth while. It is perhaps the
best form of health work known. The
very best financial investment. The
greatest trouble at the present time
is to get men who are adapted and
qualified for the work. The field of
preventive medicine is so different
from the care of the disease that it is
hard to find men qualified and adopt¬
ed to the care of the community as a
whole; men who are fitted for the
work are in demand.
It is indeed and in truth fine busi¬
ness to buy futures in fine, robust
health.
FITS AND STARTS.
So often we see things done by “fits
and starts.” We see surveys made for
certain diseases and a great hue and
cry for a short time, then slowly the
dramatic endeavor dies, not because
the work was not needed; not because
a reform was not necessary; not be¬
cause a festering sore did not need a
severe curetment; not because a dis¬
ease did not need curing and a cause
removed for ailing people, but the
enthusianm just died and the great
movement slowly passes into the for¬
gotten.
I have just been thinking that it was
not so many years ago when the whole
South, even Am erica, was startled when
the hookworm was discovered and the
cause of much of the disability of our
people was brought to light. Surveys
were made, almost every county in the
State was visited, the heavily infected
areas thoroughly worked and much
remedial work done. The worm was
studied, its mode of entrance to the
body shown beyond all question, and
the remedies, simple and easy to ad¬
minister, were given publicity; yet we
have not eliminated this one of
greatest drawbacks to the progress
the South. Thousands of our people are
infected today; we have almost
soil pollution still goes on, children
go ... barefoot and , , have ground , itch . ,
;
many, very many, are “puny,” anaemic
and poorly nourished, lazy and good
for nothing, when it is all due to the
loss of blood from hookworm.
When one is ill, not doing well, fee¬
ble, “poorly” and has “that tired feel¬
ing,” you had better send a little
of the bowel movement to the State
Board of Health and see if the trou¬
ble is not hookworm.
If you have been diagnosed as
bercular and do not improve as you
should, you had better find out
If you are not feeding worms. The
diagnosis is easy; we furnish the prop
er container and vour physician can
cure you, oh, so quickly! Recently
a new remedy has been discovered
for the cure of the hookworm; it is
almost harmless and your doctor can
put the bloom of health in sallow
cheeks and fat on your skinny form
with just a dose or so.

CHARGES MADE AGAINST
NEW ATLANTA VIADUCT
Atlanta, Jan 10,—Atlanta has anoth¬
er sensation. It’s about the new Spring
street viaduct, and it looks like there’s
“something rotten in Denmark.”
In effect there are charges that the
City Enginering Department has been
absolutely ignored by the Bond Com¬
mission and its engineers in the plans
for the structure; that money has been
wasted, and the bridge is being con¬
structed of materials that will not stand
a load in excess of twelve tons without
being weakened and its life shortened.
The firm of Robert and Company are
the associate engineers in the viaduct
work: that is to say, they are the local
firm in charge, the contract being giv¬
en to an out-of-town company. Mi-. Rob¬
ert denies the charges.
“I am in favo" of firing the whole
bunch and having the viaduct con¬
structed by the bridge committee of
council and C. B. Kauffman, city engi
neer of bridges and estimates, if these
charges prove to be true,” Mayor Sims
declared. “I will not see the people’s
wasted on a bridge that will not
stand up.”
The charges became public through a
letter written by Engineer Kauffman to
G. Cooper, chairman of the viaduct
This letter had been incor¬
in the tentative annual report
the Engineering Department to the
City Council, but was eliminated from
the final report on the advice of City
J. L. Mayson, it is said.
The city attorney gave as a reason
advising the elimination of the let¬
ter from the annual report, that he re¬
it as a rather severe criticism
one city official of other officials,
he didn’t think that it belonged in
city document. W. A. Hansell, Chief
Construction, declared that the char¬
made by Mr. Kauffman were ab¬
true, but he had agreed to the
elimination of the letter from the report
because he thought it was too late to
do any good.
Investigations are under way, and
city officials are going to probe deep
and take action.

POPULAR INGRATITUDE
An instance of a people’s ingratitude
an(1 lack of a l ) l )1 ' t ‘ciation of service is
retirement of Chief Justice William
Hansell Fish from the bench of the
Supreme Court of Georgia, after twen
ty-six years of devoted and honored ser¬
vice. That it was possible, in the un¬
certainty of politics, for a man compar¬
atively unknown and of ordinary ability
to defeat a man like Fish, is the best
proof that could be had of the dangers
that lie in the popular selection of our
Judiciary. That Judge Fish, when he
retired on January 1, was presented
with the chair he occupied so long, and
that he goes to Mercer University as
Dean of its Law School, softens the
sting of popular ingratitude for him,
but it in no way compensates the" peo¬
ple of Georgia for the loss to their ju¬
diciary of this man’s long experience
and able mind.—Tifton Gazette.
