DEPENDABILITY As the sailor puts his trust in the iron bolts and plates which separ ate him from the ocean’s depths; as the aviator confides his safety to the honest workmanship in his plane and motor, so the physician must depend upon the skill and integrity of the pharmacist for the lives of his patients, and the main tenance of his professional repu tation. It means much to him that in his prescriptions the purest drugs, the most careful compounding, and the greatest accuracy should be combined.

THE BARTOW TRIBUNE-THE CART EPSVILLE NEWS, SEPT, 27, 1917. CONNOR REPORTS ON SANITARY CONDITIONS (Continued from page four.) school houses I consider not only in sanitary but immoral. We can hardly expect the best thoughts to come from children when we subject them daily to such insanitary conditions and stench as obtain at the school houses in Cartersvivle. At one of the schools the seat had been used as a depository and there were indications that sev eial of the pupils had resorted to this practice. The general surface conditions of Cartersville are far from good. The city is located in a basin, as it w'ere, and the extensive watershed surround ing the city makes it necessary that special attention be paid to the general surface drainage, otherwise extensive mosquito breeding and soil pollution will occur, and this means typhoid and malaria. The present insanitary conditions existing at Cartersville are especially favorable for giving rise to typhoid fever, dysentery and malaria fever. My inspection leads me to think that practically all the typhoid fever cases in Cartersville and immediate vicinity at the moment origiiyite there eitlier from surface wells, infection carried by flies or personal contact. There was no evidence that would lead me to be lieve that the city supply is in any way responsible for any case of ty phoid fever now present at Carters ville. Recommendations Ist. That all persons at Cartersville and immediate vicinity be vaccinated against typhoid fever. 2d. That a general clean up be made of all premises, public and private. The grass, weeds, etc., in the open ditches, vacant lots and around every dwelling be cut close to the ground for a distance of not less than 300 feet and preferably 1000 feet, ail cut grass and weeds to be collected and disposed of by burning or burying. All tin cans botttes and every article capable of holding water should be collected and buried All pools of water should be drained or oiled. 3d. That Cartersville organize a local Hoard of Health and appropriate funds for its activities. That all aid be given toward the adoption of the Ellis Health Law. 4th. That all new cases of sickness in which there is a doubt as to the nature of the illness should be report ed and considered as contagious and Treated as such. uth. The blood specimens from all suspicious cases be forwarded to the State Board of Health for examination. 6th. Inasmuch as there is an almost epidemic of typhoid and malaria throughout Bartow county, I would earnestly recommend that the County Commissioners and County Board of Health adopt the State Board of Health's co-operative plan for an in tensive soil pollution campaign for Bar tow county. 7th. That as soon as practicable, a modern sewerage system be installed at Cartersville and that every habita tion within jurisdiction of the ciiy be required to connect with the city’s sewer and water mains. Sth. 1 earnestly recommend that all Surface wells be abolished at once as a source of water supply. Homes not tcached by the present system of mains and must depend upon wells should boil their water before using same. 9th. That all perons be advised to protect themselves against mosquitoes bv the use of mosquito bars at night and to screen their homes. Very respectfully, M. E. CONNOR. Georgia State Board of Health.

Lane, of Tallapoosa, Ga., went to Atlanta and consulted the One Price Dental Office, Whitehall st, Atlanta, about some dental work. The price quoted was satisfactory and the work was done. After she paid the bill and counted up what the trip had cost she found that the total outlay was $56.38. “After I came home,” she says in a recent letter, “I went to see one of our dentists and asked him what he thought of the work I had had done in Atlanta and he said I had a fine job. I asked him what he would have charged and he said SIOO. Should I ever need any more work done I certainly will come to Atlanta and have the work done. I can’t praise your work too highly.” The One Price Dental Office never changes its prices, which are as fol lows: Best gold crowns, [s3; bridge work, $3 per tooth; finest set of teeth money can buy, $5.
