THE DAWN OF
A NEW ERA
Georgia has long labored under the
burden of malaria, The mosquito
should hare long ago been considered
a greater menace to Georgia’s pros
perity than the boll-weevil. Did you
ever hear of a monument being erect
ed signifying the blessing of the mos
quito? No, but such a monument
was erected in a neighboring State to
the boll-weevil which as a blessing In
disguise promoted diversification of
crops. However, there have been
during this past year 657 ground ex
cavations In Georgia and at the head
of each no doubt a monument will be
erected not significant of the benefit
from an insect but of the sad result
of the mosquito’s deadly bite. Think
of this In terms of economic loss,
physical suffering, mental anguish.
But we no v vision the dawn of a
new era. The public Is interested as
never before. Cities and towns are
increasing appropriations for mos
quito control. Counties are providing
additional levies and personnel for
this most Important health work. The
State Board of Health is working
to capacity in rendering assistance.
These facts speak for themselves.
Malaria will be conquered. It can
be done, and economically. Necessity
has mothered the invention of new
and economical methods. Science
has been observant and has witnessed
success. Bright dawns n i ew day
resplendent with the light of opti
mism. Malaria will be conquered.—
Georgia’s Health.
GEORGIA PARENT
TEACHERS APPROVE
At the recent annual meeting of the
Georgia Congress of Parent-Teachers,
resolutions were passed in commenda
tion of the State Board of Health,
which all will agree are deserved, and
were as follows:
“Sound Health: The Congress favors
the development of a program of health
education which will guarantee to ev
ery child freedom from remediable de
fects and which will establish right
habits, attitudes and Ideals of physical
and mental health
“The Congress commends the gen
eral work of the Children’s Bureau in
behalf of the children of the United
States and the co-operative activities
of our State towards reducing the haz
ards of maternity and infancy and for
promoting the health of mothers and
children under the
Bili."
It is expected that, Inasmuch as
Federal funds have been
owing to the Sheppard-Towner
expiring, that the General
will make an emergent
to the State Board of Health to
ply the necessary personnel to
tinue this most important work In
State
Free Book
The Georgia Baby Book’s fourth edi
tion of 50,000 copies is just off the
press, and is free to those who ask for
It. This is one of the most practical
and useful of many of the health bul
letins issuing from our health author
ities. Write Dr. Joe P. Bowdoin, di
rector, Division of Child Hygiene, 4
Capitol Square, S. W., Atlanta, Ga.
for the Baby Book.
Money spent for public health is aD
investment, not an expenditure.
The many friends of Mrs. Grady Lee
will be interested to know that she
returned home Thursday from Wesley
Memorial hospital following an opera
tion from which she is recuperating
nicely.
