Merit and Efficiency
We offer *1* following fact, a, evidence of the superior training offered
at the Georgia Military College.

• ° J: C - Ca “P for lht f° ur 'h Corps Area with the other military schools
located in this Area comprising the Southeastern states. In these six years we
have been awarded five years m succession the beautiful silver trophy for
General Excellence. Twice during this time, in addition to this main trophy
viduaTrad^r a " arded ^ C “ P f ° r hi "’ mg ,ilc bc5t Y |Uad and the best indi-
In a contest this year in May in which the military schools of the state
were invited to compete for three cups given by the Junior Chamber of Com
merce of Macon, we were awarded ail three.
• In competition with all the military schools of the Fourth Corps Area
wc were awarded the $200 trophy for excellence in Markmanship. and in the
William Randolph Hears! Contest with the small bore rifle open to the military
schools of the United Slates, wc came second, and tied for high individual
score.
This IS a remarkable record. Seven awards for superiority in one year
can be explained la only one basis; namely, the splendid spirit of loyalty
co-operation and esprit de corps of the cadet corps, and the confidence of
the cadets in the unselfish and sympathetic interest in their welfare of their
class room instructors and their military instructors.
The standing of our graduates in the colleges of the state and at the two
government institutions at Annapolis and West Point attest in equally as strong
way our excellent scholastic training. The controlling motive and dominating
purpose of this school are to develop in the individual boy the spirit of initia
tive and self-reliance, and that stamina and fiber of character which will enable
him. as it were, to stand alone; or to state this in another way, we strive
continually to get a boy faced right.
In addition to the scholastic and military training offered, we have provid-
ed for those boys who are interested in mechanical lines a two years course
in Wood Work. Mechanical Drawing and Freehand Drawing. Our shop is
equipped with the latest modern machinery, and the instruction is given by a
graduate of Clemson College. This department of our school has made a won
derful appea to a large number of boys, and has been the avenue through
which several of them have found themselves.
You can patronize this school at a cost ranging from $300 to $700 less
per year than you can any other school of similar grade in the South offering
advantages comparable to those provided at the Georgia Military College.
If you are seeking a school in which constant effort is being made to call
into expression the boy’s best self, we believe that the Georgia Military Col
lege will meet your expectations.
NOTICE
Concerning Toxin Anti-toxin.
Citizens of the County will recall that last year the Health Officer went to every
school and community attempting to get a list of two hundred children under
seven years of age. pleading that they t-ke the toxin anti-toxin immunization
against dipthena. The response was slow, BUT IN SPITE OF THAT FACT the
against diphtheria. The response was slow, BUT IN SPITE OF THAT FACT the
exhausted, but the demand increased until 853 children had been immunized
against the disease.
The mothers of Baldwin County are thoroughly familiar with the EFFECTS
AND PROTECTIVE POWERS OF THE TOXIN ANTI-TOXIN, and ALL CHIL
DREN BETWEEN THE AGES OF 6 months and 7 years of age should be im
munized permanently against diphtheria.
IT IS IN THE INFANTILE PERIOD THAT DIPTHERIA DANGER LURKS for
the reason that a child at that age is MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO the disease and
at that age is UNABLE TO TELL ITS MOTHER THAT IT IS SICK WITH THE
DEADUEST OF ALL THE DISEASES.
I oxin anti-toxin is HARMLESS, so much so that the dose is the same for infant
and adult alike.
There is many an infant in Baldwin County that is not protected against dip-
theria by toxin anti-toxin, BECAUSE THE PARENTS JUST COULDN'T BEAR
THE IDEA OF A TINY NEEDLE BEING STUCK IN THE CHILD FOR THREE
TIMES, and because THEY COULDN’T BEAR TO HEAR THE CHILD CRY. Yet
if the child contracts diptheria, 50 times the amount of the medicine must be
injected with a very large needle.
IFAU INFANTS BETWEEN THE AGES OF SIX MONTHS AND TWO YEARS
WERE INOCULATED WITH TOXIN ANTI-TOXIN, there would be no more
ciptheria.
The Georgia Pediatric Society is again furnishing TWO HUNDRED complete
doses (enough for 200 children) ofloxin anti-toxin to our county, and will be
furnished FREE OF ANY CHARGE to children between the ages of 6 months
and 7 years, PROVIDED;
I. That it be given from a clinic formed for that purpose.
11 i a * name, age and sex of each child applying must be furnished to the
Health Officer.
3. That this list of names must be made immediately.
IF YOU DESIRE TO HAVE YOUR CHILDREN OF THOSE AGES INOCULATED
AGAINST DIPTHERIA. FORWARD THEIR NAME. ACE. AND SEX TO the
Health Officer AT ONCE (also whether child has ever received antitoxin.)
