Department Of Public Health — ■■■ ... ...... ........ 1— .. ..... By Miss Fannielu McWhorter, IMMUNIZE FOR HEALTH Germs are “joiners.” They don’t suffer from a disease call¬ ed Ochlophobia which is a mor¬ bid fear of crowds. They thrive as the crowds increase. The more children there are congre¬ gated in Georgia schools, the more readily communicable dis¬ eases spread. Already this year, there have been reported to the State Health Department 5,025 cases of “children’s diseases”— 147 cases of diphtheria, 3,321 of measles, 50 poliomylitis, and 1,143 whooping cough. From these communicable diseases, 71 child¬ ren died during the first six months of 1947—15 from measles, 45 from whooping cough, 10 from diphtheria, and 1 from polio¬ myelitis. Diphtheria deaths have be¬ come so infrequent that some parents may think their child is no longer in danger of catch¬ ing this disease. That is a cruel mistake, as no child is safe from diphtheria until he has been suc¬ cessfully immunized. Measles mey be serious for very young and delicate children. Complications may arise, such as bronchopneumonia or inflama- tion of the middle ear, unless a child is given proper care when ill with measles. Scarlet fever is caused by a germ of the streptococcus family. This disease is often serious and may have severe complications, including ear trouble, infected glands, and diseases of the heart and kidneys. Complications can nearly always be avoided by hav¬ ing prompt medical care. Whooping cough is a highly contagious disease caused by the nertussls bacillus. Children less than five years of age are parti¬ cularly susceptible, and the ma¬ jority of deaths occur among those less than two years of age. Whooping cough in young child¬ ren is dangerous because an at¬ tack usually last for several weeks, during which time the strength is severely taxed by persisting coughing and frequent vomiting. The germs from all of these diseases, except poliomylitis, can [either be prevented from harm- Hawkins. Fall and winter is a good time to get terraces built if the wea¬ ther permits. It is especially this year as the i&yment rate through PMA (formerly AAA) is $1 per 100 feet if approved ter¬ races are built before December 31, 1947. Next year’s payment rate, if any, has not been set. Comments from the SIDELINES By ELBERT FORESTER Much is being said about the Lt. Philip Mountbatten-Princess Elizabth wedding. One of the things that he will, after the wedding, get a salary increase of $18.83 a week. Well, now, ain’t that mighty fine?

The Dade Lions' Club, organized in 1934, is Dade’s Civic Club and has always been very active in promoting movements toward advancement of our county. The club has sponsored and been responsible for many of our improvements. * * * 'Statistics show that there is a gradual decrease in death and injury on the highways of Geor¬ gia as a result of a doubled effrJrt on the part of many of the state’s safety organizations. People as a whole are becoming more and more “safety conscious.” More and more safety meetings are be¬ ing held throughout the state and these meetings are of tre¬ mendous help. I was honored a few days ago to speak to the Ful¬ ton County Women’s Club on the subjfct of safety and after the meeting, the club adopted this slogan: “Drive Safely—The Life You Save Might be Your Own.” Not a bad slogan, as a matter of fact, a very good one, since it is quite true- Cloverdale News Moving is the order of the day here. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Blevins have moved to their new home bought some time ago; Mr. and Mrs. Carl Hawkins have moved to her old home, where the Blevins’ moved from, and Mr. Morgan, father of Ed Mor¬ gan, moved to where the Hawk¬ ins’ formerly lived. Ed Bible and L. S. Blake at¬ tended the “Keep Georgia Green” meeting in Atlanta last week, having been invited by Governor Thompson. This was a state wide meeting and was well attended. Chickenpox has several little folks speckled. Shirley, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Hawkins, has been very sick. Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Steel (Dorothy Bible) were week end visitors with relatives. Uncle P. B. Bible made a brief call on Ed Bible and family last week end. Royce, son of Charles Bible, has his discharge from the U. S. N. He has not arrived home yet, as he is visiting in Florida. This leaves only one boy, Riddle, in service from Clover- dale. Miss Boswell, our Home onstration Agent, was in community yesterday.
