RECESS® FOR
PUBLIC HEALTH
The success of any movement for
the public good must have the pub
lic behind it. It must have local sup
port, and organized support at that.
This is true in all forward uplift
movements. It is more especially true
in the great fight that is being made
against the Venereal Diseases. We
have never been called upon to en
list in a more urgent or worthy cause.
Each community is vitally interested;
every community has its venereal
problem and this menace is at your
door. Take the population of your
town, and one out of every thirteen
is likely to be personally interested.
No community is exempt; some are
more nearly free from infection than
others, but all have it to a greater
or less extent.
These diseases are not respecters
of persons and families; the high as
well as the low are contracting Syhp
ilis and Gonorrhoea. They will con
tinue to contract them until we can
educate the people to realize the art
fulness of the infection.
Why not get busy in your commun
ity? We have ample laws; we need
the people to get behind them. May
we not count on you?
GA. STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Dr. Thos. Abercrombie, Secretary of
the Georgia State Board of Health,
has just completed a tour of the
Schools for the Feeble Minded in the
East. It will be remembered that the
recent legislature passed a law creat
ing a school for the feeble-minded in
our state, appropriating one hundred
thousand dollars to start the work,
provided some community in the state
would offer a site of three hundred
acres of land. Sites have already been
offered by several of the cities. ,
Dr. Abercrombie’s visit to the
schools was for the purpose of de
.ciding as to the best plan for the 1
Georgia institution and to get infor
mation at first hand. The methods
of teaching were closely studied, as 1
<u’t ss the system of working the old
er inmates to teach them profitable
trades.

“Have stood the test" of time, because they
f have always first stood the test of our ex-

material entering Royster brands so that |
nothing harmful to crops can pass. Then
the practical experience of 35 years, the
vigorous and progressive methods, and
splendid manufacturing facilities are ad-
' ditional reasons why Roysters Fertilizers •
“have stood the test."
