Since school has started there’s not so much running around. We had such a nice crowd at Lathes’ Aid last week. It was election of officer and everyone came out to defend themselves. So often the absent ones wake up to find themselves president er sumpin. We had a Secret Sister party too, and such a lot of ohing and ahing over the lovely gifts. We are planning to have a called meeting at the Commu- nity House Wednesday at 1 o’clock to make final plans for our Hallowe’en Social which will be given on Saturday Oct. 29th. We are going to sell pies, cakes, hamburgers, hot dogs and lots of other good things, as well as hand work. We will also play bingo.We Want all you folks to make plans to come to our social. We will start by serving lunch at 12 o’clock. Mrs. E. R. Wells and Mrs. Eli- zabeth Townsend will go to next Thursday to at- Conference. They are de- legates from the Wildwood charge Merrill Smith will go with them as delegate to the Young Peoples Conference. Such a lot of going and com¬ ing around the Community House last Friday as we all went down to get our pictures taken. It was a real experience to me, because I had never been X-rayed before. There was a bingo party at Morganville School last Satur¬ day night. There was a fair¬ sized crowd there. However — it wasn’t nearly as large as it should have been considering the work that is still to be done on the building. Folks, when the ladies and teachers get up these socials to try to complete the school let’s all go and back them up. Don’t think because the children are going to school there that the building is fin¬ ished. It’s far from it, so let’s all come out next time and have a big crowd. Well, so long folks.

TUBERCULOSIS AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE Tuberculosis can strike at any age, but it is a greater threat to young adults in gene¬ ral than to children and older people. Striking with greater frequency during a person’s most productive years, tuber¬ culosis kills more young people in this country between the ages of 15 and 34 than any other disease. Tuberculosis is a communi¬ cable disease that fs easily spread from person to person. A large percentage of people, by the time they become adults have been infected with tuber¬ culosis germs. Of those who have “taken” the germs, of tu¬ bercle bacilli, into their lungs, the majority do not get tuber¬ culosis. The natural resistance Df their bodies is able to fight the germs adequately and ei¬ ther kill them outright or keep them well under control so that tuberculosis does not develop. Those who develop active di¬ sease are people in whom the tubercle bacilli get the “ypper hand.” The resistance of their bodies is either weak or tempo¬ rarily lowered and the tubercle bacilli seize the opportunity to do their destructive work while defenses are down. ! Tuberculosis attack young and old, but it is particularly dan¬ gerous in young adulthood, be¬ ginning at adolescence. Many doctors believe that the many physiological changes that come about at that time make adolescent boys and girls more susceptible to tuberculosis than when they were younger. It is possible also that in¬ creased scholastic, athletic and social activity, characteristic of this age, become a physical strain on the adolescent, lower I his natural resistance to all j diseases, and hence make him more vulnerable to tuberculo¬ sis. So the building and main¬ taining of natural resistance, through proper rest, diet, and other healthful habits of living, are of special importance to adolescence and young adult- hood. one of the best habits a voung person can form is to get regular physical check-up, in- eluding chest X-rays. Thus, if tuberculosis does strike, it will bg fQund in an early stage> in whl „ b it is easiest to cure. Those who live healthfully obviously have a better chance against tuberculosis, but there is no sure oul c safeguard against . tu trcu osls ‘ _____ ^„—«.—„—, POLLED HEREFORDS THAT GO PLACES Can Be Yours and Go Places For You Tennessee Polled Hereford Association SHOW AND SALE Thursday’ October 6, 1949 FAIR GROUNDS Fayetteville, Tenn.
