UNITED STATES CENSUS
BUREAU IS INVESTIGATING
STATE BOARD OF HEALTH
As we go to press the United States
Census Bureau have a number of men
at work at the office of the State Board
of Health, checking up the reports sent
in from this county and others of
births. This is being done to find out if
our State is reporting a sufficiently
large number of births to be admitted
to the registration area of the Nation.
The Census Bureau makes an estimate
of births, which should occur in a
given State from the vast number that
are reported throughout the country.
fore This percentage must be attained in and be-j
we can be allowed to come
qualify. The Bureau of Vital Statis¬
tics. under Dr. Davis, has already reach¬
ed the hopes goal that required for be deaths, admitted andj in j
now we may
full.
tention Our people to do not give enough birth at- j
this matter. Every |
should be immediately reported by the j
physician or midwife, and if not done'
by them it 6hould be done by the par¬ to!
ents. If you will report this birth
Dr. Davis, and ask for it, a Baby Book
will be sent you by the Bureau of Child
Hygiene. If the birth was reported by
the physician, as the law directs, you
should ask Dr. Alice Moses for the
Baby Book.
There are two things that you should j
be sure is done when the baby comes,
have the drops put into its eyes, and
the report of its birth sent in. This re¬
port is tabulated at the Capitol, in¬
dexed, the report bound in a book and
locked in a fire-proof safe for the pro¬
tection of your child.
MORE HEALTH WORK NEEDED.
Georgia should rank high in the gal¬
axy of states. She cannot do so with
out a clean bill of health. A clean bill
of health rests on the prevention oi
disease, therefore our State should
spend freely of her money for making
the State a safe place in which to live
The public health Is in the hands of
the State Board of Health; do not
shackle the hands of this department
by being stingy with funds; chains of
poverty will effectually cause starva
tion, stunted growth and shortening
of life.
Dr. Abercrombie, State Commission¬
er of Health, invites any citizen of our
State to closely investigate his depart¬
ment; especially would he be delight¬
ed to have our law-makers not only to
go minutely into the work done by the
State Board of Health, but to go still
further and see the wonderful possi¬
bility for good if he only had the funds
to extend the good work.
Money spent in liberality to prevent
uiness is well spent money. Health
cam be bought; state appropriations
should be liberal and abundant to dn
"-‘I necessary health work.
MY BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF MY
SOUL—THEREFORE,
I will keep my body clean, within
and without.
I will breath pure air and I will live
in the sunlight.
I will do no act that might endanger
the health of others.
I will try to learn and practice the
rules of healthy living.
I will work and rest and play at the
right time and in the right way, so
that my mind will be strong and my
body healthy and so that I will lead a
useful life and be an honor to my par¬
ents, to my friends and to my country.

about any health or sanitary condition,

ta, for literature. They have for tree

Old Father Hubbard went to his cup¬

To tickle his palate, that’s all;
In forty-eight hours, a prayer and some
flowers—
Alas! It was wood alcohol.

It seemed a simple frolic;
But I waa sick in bed a week—

TRUST
-r'D RATHER trust a man than
J. not, all forgot,
Each dark suspicion
And if it be that all my trust
Hath gone into unworthy dust,
1 11 still be glad I trusted him
Though my reward be harvest
grim.
Since I'il have done my best to
win him,
And prove what good he holds
within him.

AMONG FORMAL SUITS
This suit makes a triumph because
of its beauty. There is not a lot of em¬
broidery on It, but what there Is re¬
veals novelty In design. The skirt Is
plain and attached to a long-sleeved
blouse of printed silk In rich paisley
colorings. It lias a surplice opening.
The smart box coat is only fastened
at the neck, thus revealing the color¬
ful blouse. Its flaring sleeves ace dec¬
orated with embroidery set with cabo
chons and a similar motif finishes the
collar and the bottom of the coat.
