EDITCfRIAL FROM THE THOM
ASVILLE TIMES-ENTERPRISE
At the request of the Grand Jury
the Timer-Enterprise is today pub
lishing in full the report of the /
Health OSheer of Thomas County,
made to that body at its session this
week. This report was cons*tiered so
fine that it was the desire of the gen
tlemen composing the Grand Jury
that it be sent broadcast throughout
the county so that all the people
might understand definitely what had
lH>en done.
This report is remarkable in many
ways-. It sh®ws not only efficient bn
extensive work. It creates the im
pression that the work is growing,
that the people are learning that it
is for their express benefit and that
they are taking more general advan
tage ef it.
Ten thousand five hundred eighty
five persons have been giver, the ty
phoid treatment in ten months time.
This means over thirty-one thousand
inoculations all done by ‘he health
department and all at no cast what
ever to the people of the county. Du
ring the time that typhoid was grow
ing in ti e State this county shows
loss of it and the death rate smaller.
Only one death from diphtheria if
the period i another remarkable :n
cidenfi This is due to the care i*.
watching cu es and likewise furnish
ing anti-toxin to children free o,
charge, and the preventive treatment
as tliey desire it.
Sm dlpox got a start and this was
summarily checked and a neighbor
ing county suffering with a good ma
ny cases of the diseases got assist
ance from Thomas County in fight
ing it. Not a case came over the
j l.fwi ,J •. fx if*, the wrirh - -1" tiio otlici r.
j Two hundred and ninety-three
j children have been inestimably ben
} edited by having defects removed.
; These were removed by physicians m
j Thomasville and elsewhere, who gave
their services free of charge, because
the parents of those children were
unable to pav for the work. Imagine
if you the direct benefit to t>e deriv
ed from this one thing alone, the
condition of those children will ma
terially improve as the years go by
because they have been relieved of
a condition that would decrease in
stead of increasing their resistance
powers to ordinary diseases and to
natural growth. This alone is worth
all that Thomas county spends on
this work. ' Til*
