Governor Asks All Georgia to Buy Seals Declaring that every person who does not aid in the campaign to check the inroads of tuberculosis .now being waged, through the sale of Red Cross Christmas seals, is almost, guilty of negative murder, Governor Joseph M. Brown has issued the following appeal i.i behalf of the work: "Such inroads upon life are made by tuberculosis that in the United States 200.000 -deaths annually are caused by it—one every three minutes. • Experts say one-half of all who die between the ages of 18 and 45 are victims of tuber culosis, but no repetition of figures, no emphasis of speech, no words of warn ing can add to the hotror and terror and responsibility which, in the public mind, attach to the gruesome devas tations of this disease. People, public and private, who do not perform every act within their power to check this scourge are almost guilty of negative murder. "It is not enough to segregate vic tims. to be cleanly, to prevent infection by sanitary methods in the destruction of sputum and otherwise. Tuberculosis will not be arrested until -the race is built stronger, until the reserve force that resists attacks of disease is great er and more potent. The cause of tu berculosis, as well as its prevention, must be studied. The conditions that make for the weakening of the race must be remedied. As long as there are lowly and congested quarters in cit ies, as long as people are badly fed and overworked, as long as the working classes are improperly housed, both dur ing their working and resting hours; as !"ng as avarice drives the individual or employers’ selfishness overdrives the eiqployee, as long as there Is excessive alcoholism and use of other poisons, the human race will continue to weaken. Hie vital energies of mankind must not dissipated. When these things are ■necked by moral and legal rules of discipline, the greatest blow will be given to tuberculosis and kindred ene mies of life. file National Association for the get a kodak.

In the meantime the injured men were carried into a drug store, where it was found that Wyger had a deep gash in his head, caused by a blow from a blackjack, and Webber’s throat was black and blue from the effects of a choking.
