DOUGLAS COUNTY SENTINEL. FRIDAY, MAY ^6, 1922.
r AN INVESTMENT IN PUBLIC
HEALTH.
Money expended in Public Health
by this State represents one of the
best, if not the best investment the
State can make. The State Board of
Health under the State Commissioner
of Health, Doctor T. F Abercrombie,
through the various divisions, is doing
n large and Important work for the
State of Georgia.
The State Snnltoriuin for Tubercu
losis is a division of the State Board
of Health and in this particular in
stitution your Board of Health is doing
all in its power to solve the great
problem of curing Tuberculosis. It is
teaching her people how to take care
of themselves and how to save the
future generations from this scourge.
Tuberculosis is practically always
contraoted in childhood. That is to
say, the infection or entrance of the
germ into the body occurs in child
hood. The development of the disease
muy not take place until later in life,
and the result from overwork, intem
perance in alcohol, exercise, or social
function. Crowding on adolescent
boy or girl in school, sometimes re
sults in kindling a childhood infection
Into an actve Tuberculosis. The In
fectious diseases In childhood, measles,
whooping cough, scarlet fever, grippe,
may be the factor causing the devel
opment of the active disease.
The most dangerous period, so far
as taking the disease, is before the
age of 15. This is not to be construed
as a statement that the Infection
may not occur in adult life, but by far
the majority of Infections take place
<#l',the first fifteen years of life. It Is
inso a fact that exposure to Tubercu
losis in adult life is less likely to re
sult in infection than in chlldhodd
and Infancy.
The best protection against infec
tion is a strong resistance, which does
not necessarily mean strong muscles,
but healthy functioning of all the or
gans of the body. A clean, regular
life, with moderate exercise; a clean
healthy body makes for this proper
functioning and stronger resistance to
disease of all sorts. A body weakened
by excesses of any sort, by disregard
of proper bathing, proper exercise,
proper eating, by bad moral habits,
too little sleep, is a body already liable
to ontrnnee of tubercle bacilli and oth
er disease-cnuslng gnrniH.
Should you bo one of those per
sons who has already been infected
with tubercle bacilli as a result of
ignorance or disregard of hygienic
' laws, or of false counsel, you should
nt onco set about to repair the damage
already done. The way to go about,
this Is to consult your physician and
take his advice at once. He will prob
ably advise you to take Sanatorium
treatment at onco. If you lmvo boon
pronounced tuberculous, mako applica
tion immediately to a good Tubercu
losis Sanatorium and enter there at
the first opportunity. I)o not delay
longer than necessary. Time hero
menus life or death. Tuberculosis is
curable in direct ratio to the earliness
of diagnosis and treatment.
Tnking patent medicines only loses
time, xatent medicines, cod liver oil.
mixtures, auu serums uo not cure
Tuberculosis. All advertised cures for
Tuberculosis are advertised and sold
to Improve the pocket of the manu
facturer, not to cure the patient.
The State of Georgia has establish
ed a Sanatorium where you can he
curir-1. You need not leave the Em
pire State of the South to be cured.
The State bears the largest part of
the financial burden. The charge for
board and treatment is less than half
the actual cost to the State. And if
you ore not able to pay, the State
will pay all costs. You should pay
your share in order that the State
Sanatorium may care for a larger
number of people who would not 1)*
able to take treatment at all on ac
count of lack of funds.
Back your State by keeping physic
ally fit yourself. Help keep others
well. Help those persons in our Com
monwealth who cannot pay for their
treatment. Help the State Tubercu
losis Sanatorium, by your own inter
est and by keeping the Legislature in
terested to the extent of appropriating
sufficient funds to care properly for
a larger number of sufferers from Tu
berculosis.
Remember, the State whose people
are happiest and mo3t prosperous, is
the State whose people are the heal
thiest. Do your bit and do it now, in
this investment in public health.
