AND PHi’SICIAN
Georgia owes a debt of gratitude to
•.be many loyal and truo local rogis-
-rars all over the Stale. Our admit

ly due to them. Many of them con
tinued the work of getting tho certif
icates when they knew thut the law
had been declared unconstitutional and
they knew that consequently they
could not receive the small fee that
waa due them, yet they worked on.
They worked for the adoption of the
umendmem to the t'onstltution. with
the result that H received the highest
vote of approval by the people of any
amendment to that document ever pro
posed All honor to the local regls
trar The medical profession lias also
been very largely responsible for the
success of thn Vital Statistics Depart
ment. A large part of the success
of the department bus been due to the
physician's co-operation with the reg
istrar. To him is given the detail of
securing the information; be has given
of hls time to the State without the
hope of fee nr reward; his has In
deed been a labor of love for hls coun
try and the reputation of hls county
\ and State. All und more can be said
. of him than has been anid of the local
, registrar.

tion area. w» will lose out unless we
redouble our efforts to keep up the
good showing made in the Census Bu

forward and make our next percentage
